pd concluded his speech, his audience
as applauding him literally. He
poke from platform erected in Whit
ey Park. Ex-Governor Peck intro
need him. Among other things, he
lid:
s, fering From the Gold Stand ,rd.
Mr.. Chairman, Ladies and Gentle.
en-: We believe that the people are
ffeling from the effects of gold
andard. That standard was fastened
pom this country more than 20 years
20, without public discussion. The
Fry fact that the people knew nothing
bout it, the fact that their consent was
BIT asked, nor their wishes ex
+essed, ought to be sufficient tt
AXE the people investigate the
use of the demonetization of silver
his city, believe, was the home Of
enator Howe, and he, in speaking
pom this subject, expressed himself
ith an emphasis which / cannot sur
ASS. His language in regard to th'
fects of the single gold standard ough
call to the attention of the people O
is ueighborhood that subject so tina
icy will investigate it for themselves
nt I remember Senator Howe for an
her reason. If am not mistaken,
as Senator Howe who was one of tn
incipal advocates of the income tax a
g time it was abolished, back il
e '10s.
Howe ON the Income Tax.
If you will read what he says abou
justice of the income tax, you viii
EN- understand why it is that W
lieve that an income tax is still
oper in this country, and my friends
hile am on this subject, if anybod
Ter tells you that we have not treate
g supreme court as gently as W
eht to, want you to find out VIII
E man is who criticizes what we say
pu will find that the people who ar
st satisfied with the income tax ds
sion are the people with large il
mes, who are shirking their duties I
e government and trying to secul
protection without paying the
are Of the taxes. IApplause.l 70
ill find that the men who are i
lxious that nothing shall be sal
kainst the income tax decision al
EN- who attack every court and evel
cision that is against them, an
ver show respect for law or authorit
anythinl else unless it is nf adval
Re to them to do SO. Cheers.
