For The Caucasian.l
WARSAW, n. c., Sept. 23.-Vote
for liberty and freedom.
Four and two years ago, | took |
upon myself the star OF banner and |
fought for freedom and liberty. And |
today l am working for the same
principles, and hope to obtain that |
freedom and liberty. that God Great
ed us with. We, tie laboring people |
of America, have become poor by
classic legislation and goldbug rule. |
But may that not be so alwaysf Let
the oppressed and laboring people
vote together and come from under
goldbug rule, and be free people in
free country, as Washington de-
clared US. Goldbugs say that we
don't need any more money to make
us a prosperous peOple-but that it
is only lack of confidence. They
(our opponents) are widely dissemi-
mating such foolish talk as that
among the hard oppressed people.
How silly it is. 1t is intended mere
ly to deceive. The hand is that of
Esau, but the voice is that of Jacob.
Isaac was deceived on account of his
being blind. Populists Isaac are
not blind, though these modern ia
cobs think so. There was some ex-
cuse for Jacobs having deceived his
father, becsuse Esau had sold him
his birth-right; but these modern
Jacobs have not bought Populists
birth right. They (our enemy are
only attempting deception without
any excuse, or even a decent pretext.
Brother laborers, let US pull togeth-
er, and carry out these measures that
are pending upon US. Our rights
and privileges have been taken
away by goldbugs, trusts and CON
bines. May it not be SO always. There
is q remedy for every disease; and
let's apply the medicine at once. The
conflict before US is wonderful, bu,
let's fight valiantly and be drawers
of water and hewers of wood nc
longer. Our homes are the unity oil
the church, society and schools
Omnes inter cOnstat, that the above i:
true. Let US heed the warning. God
demands US to protect our homes
yes, our wives demands it of us
our children demand it of US, oul
neighbors demand it of US; lastly, oul
country demands il of US. Then
let us decorate and attune our heart
and be kind towards one another
l Let Us work to subdue ourselve
from the wilderness of nature, one,
! SO beautiful, now so weed grown
!, and become q good, loving and use
:. full people. Work brings succe SIS
home or abroad. Populists shoul,
F take delight, pride, strength
yes, deep and active interest il
, working for their rights. Jefferso

We are paying Great Britain abou
$50 millions of dollars interest al
y y nually. That is one cause of prt
: duce being cheap and the dolla
s dear. Then we have a decrease {

: had a decrease of fifty-nine million.
In 1895 ninety-one millions. Tot,
y amount in circulation for the two sal
r years one hundred and fifty millions
Is Instead of there being a decrease {

; currency in proportion to the il

ol much until we come out and fig
