WHEN The BONDS FALL DUE.

silver that's in store,
When cvcrybody's going to have bright
shining coin galore,
And dollars lie as thick as stones along the

SO all the farmer has TO do IL cart em eli

'Tis a glimpse of FL Dorado from West

But how about the prospect
When

hue
It's most inspiring sentiment to tell the
workingman
That his pockets going to Jingle under
Bryan S silver plan,
And it's such soothing nostrum for the
poor old country jay,
That he'll get flood of silver for his
pumpkins and his hay;
And there is no need to tell him, from y
silver point of view,
That twill be another story
When
The
Bonds

Due ;
OF course the man who buys our bonds
and pays for them in gold
Will feel great satisfaction and delight
when he Is told
That instead of standard money, he must
take his pay in trash,
Which shrinks one half in value whom re-
duccd to hard, cold cash
Oh! twill be mighty cunning trick for
Uncle Sam to do,
But how about his honor
When
