One of the assistant United States

law says that no one holding Office shall
serve as an elector, and he preferred to

The Greedy Gold Power.

If the financial policy of the money
power should be permitted to continue
until the gold dollar should come to
represent 500 cents, as compared with
the products measured by it, the cry of
the monopolists would still be: 1--WE
want gold! That is the best money for
us, and therefore the best for the coun-
try" No matter to what point of un-
just value the gold dollar should rise,
entailing the inevitable fall in the value
of all commodities, the money power
will never voluntarily loosen its grasp
and release the people from the CALLING
yoke of plutocracy. The people must
act. This octopus must be crushed be-
fore it has done further harm to the
wage-earners OF this country-Tam-

THE CLASSES AND THE MASSES
A Distinction Set Up by the Money Power
Back OF Mckinley.


Mr.. Mckinley says: THE men who.
would divide the land and set up class
distinctions are the public's enemies.
This is precisely what usurycrats.
have been doing for years-setting up
class distinctions. Among them, and
with little or no disguise, attempts
may be noted everywhere of making the
breach wider between the worker and
the money lender.
These money lenders have been trav-
cling so frequently abroad of late years
that they have imbued themselves with
the class distinctions to be seen in Eu-
rope, and they make no bones about
saying that they are not of the same
breed of humanity as the toilers at the
pillow or in the shop, or even those not
as wealthy as themselves.
1t is the work, more or less secretly
carried ON. of these usurycrats that has
made the breach Mr.. Mckinley deplores,
although his words falsely assert that
the breach is the work of the toilers.
Everybody of any observing power
we'll knows that it is not the toiler
who instigates class government; it
is not the toiler who would shut himself
out from associating with the rich. On
the other hand, it is observable every
where that it is the rich who have in all
periods of history sought to keep the
toilers down under the whip-lash in
one form or another.
1t is the money lenders and those who
sustained usury for oppressive ends in
all generations who have sought TO
build up and retain an aristocracy
which toilers were not permitted tG
enter. 1t is the money lenders who in.
variably have sought to rob toilers as
body, under the idea that they could
alone retain or increase their riches by
forcibly selling upon the results OF
toll. Therefore whatever dividing o:
classes there appears to be in the pres
ent contest, it is all the work of the
Barton County democrat. [volume] (Great Bend, Kan.) 1885-1915, 1896-10-29
BOSS HANNA.s RULE.
Working on Money Furnished by the Cor
rupt Trusts.

The battle being waged in the mid
die west is worthy all the interest it
creates. 1t is immensely significant.
The republicans, under the direction
of Mark Hanna, are making a stCpen-
dous fight. Hundreds of his orators are
on the stump, his newspapers are
trumpeting, and every agency that can
be persuaded to cooperate or that can
be bought or drafted is employed to
convince the people that the gold
standard is as good for them as It is
for the trusts, syndicates and preda-
tory millionaires who are paving the
bills for all this.
On the other hand the democrats
are obliged to rely largely on volun-
teer effort. They have little money
not enough to defray the cost of an or
binary campaign to say nothing of eff
setting the unprecedented elaborate
ness and energy of the republican OPP
erations. Yet are the democrats conf
dent of winning. Their trust is the
same as that expressed by Mr.. Bryan
when he said: las against corruption
fund, however much, we place the man
hood of the American voter
The staff correspondent of the es-
teemed New York Sun telegraphs from
Chicago that an admirer of Mr.. Hanna,
impressed by the remarkable thor
oughness of the boss methods, cried
out of him: Hanna, you missed your
calling. You ought to have been a
general. You'd have made a Hanni-
bal, a Caesar or a Wellington" And
unquestionably Mr.. Hanna is a very
able man of his kind. But the error he
is making is the error to which the
class he typifies is always prone.
Knowing the power of money in their
business schemes they insensibly come
to think money must be equally irrc-
sistible in other fields. They View
labor as a commodity only, forgetting
the humanity of the laborer, and they
Barton County democrat. [volume] (Great Bend, Kan.) 1885-1915, 1896-10-29

usurycrats themselves, whose spokes-
man and advocate Mr.. Mckinley has,
unfortunately for himself, consented to
be.
As the masses of the great plain
people have been downtrodden by these
usurers, it is right and just that they
should unite and protest against it.
And if that protest against usurycrat
methods of robbery is Objectionable to
the usurycrats they have no one else
to thank but themselves for their short
sighted and misery behavior.-Philas
delphia Item
Barton County democrat. [volume] (Great Bend, Kan.) 1885-1915, 1896-10-29

commit the same mistake as to the
voter. They rush into politics as they
do into the wheat pit, not doubling
that the heaviest purse must conquer.
That money is potent in politics
everybody is aware, but it is not ON
nipotent. When mems blood is up,
when their patriotism is aroused, they
think of other things than money.
That is the state of the masses in the
middle west now. The very scale on
which Hanna is conducting his battle,
the enormous sums he is pouring out,
the swarm of orators he has sent to the
stump, the lavishness with which the
press is being treated-all combine TO
reveal his sure knowledge that if the
middle west were left free to follow its
own inclination it would sweep toward
Bryan and honest bimetallic money.
And as Mckinley can't be elected and
the gold standard fastened on the
United States without the help of the
middle west, Mr.. Hanna has set out
to buy it. He can buy politicians Who,
like Maj. Mckinley, have preached free
silver, to initiate Maj. Mckinley again
and preach the single gold standard;
he can buy newspapers to back up his
stumperS; he can buy workers a: tie
polls, and workers to try false count
ing after the polls are closed. But can
Mr.. Hanna buy voters of the middle
west?
The Standard Oil company, the great
railroad corporations, the big manufac-
turing trusts, the bond syndicate, MIR.
Carnegie, Mr.. Pierpont Morgan, Mr..
Huntington, and all the rest of the
high-minded patriots who are furnish
ing Mr.. Hanna with the means to de-
fend the national honor, think he can.
Suppose this campaign of Mr.. Han
mas should succeed, what, in the opin-
ion of the ordinary American citizen
who is a decent man and lover of his
country, would be the effect on repub-
lican institutions? Is the complete
dominance of the money power in the
United States to be desired IN. Y.

PURCHASING POWER.
Free Coinage Means BimetaIlisn and a
Rising Market.


Rising Market.
Why will the free coinage dollar of 4121k
grains of standard silver (now worth about
30 centS) buy much at the corner grocery
as gold dollar?
The foregoing question is propounded
by a subscriber. The answer may be
compactly stated thus: The present sill
yer dollar of 4121a grains will buy as
much at the corner grocery now as a
gold dollar. There is no reason why it
should not continue to purchase as
much as the gold dollar when the minis
are opened to the free and unlimited
coinage of silver. The congress of the
United States having 1.-The power to
regulate the value of the money it
coins,'' has declared that 412% grains of
silver made into coin shall be equiv
alent to gold dollar. That edict will
always. until repealed, make the pur-
chasing power of the two dollars the
same in this country. But this is true:
When we shall have free and unlimited
coinage of both gold and silver, neither
the gold nor the silver dollar will have
the purchasing power they now have.
In other words. prices will be stimu-
lated all along the line and rising mar.
ket will set the industries of this coun-
try in motion from ocean to ocean and
from the lakes to the gulf.-Los Angeles

HOLMES LAST PLEA.

Gov. Hastings is to bc commended for
promptly and curtly refusing the applica-
ton OF Murderer Holmes for a reprieve.
The duplCity, which is one of the most
striking characteristics of this criminal,
does not abate an inta, even in the shadow
of the gallows. He pleads for more time
that he may make his peace with God and
clear his name of the stain OF four or five
murders with which he has been charged,
but which be claims not to have committed.
He wants more time, also, he declares,
to arrange certain matters of business,
with view to doing justice to some people
whom be processes to have wronged.
The petition he addressed to the gov
ernor was fairly redolcnt with hypocrisy
and in the light of his admission that his

no more credence is to be given to the
former than TO the latter A s heretofore
stated, Holmes is a curious mixture of
desire for notoriety and careless by which
means he may acquire it. Perhaps, also,
he has cherished hope that by gaining
time he might ultimately escape the ex-
treme penalty Of the law, but the gov
ernor's energetic refusal must have con-
vinced him that he had nothing more to
hope for. Next Thursday Holmes will
