| Significant Threats Uttered Against TIN
United States by Gold Bug English Pa
pers The Cowardly Attitude of Amer
lean Tories.
Chicago, Ills, Oct. 8.-War with Eng
land is threatened by the American
representatives of the English bond
holders and Shylocks, in the event tina
Bryan is elected. 1t is not an idle
threat. The money power is desperate
and will not surrender it's clutch on the
threats of the American people without
a fight Here are two recent editoria
expressions from well-known London
newspapers:
London, Sept. 12.-[Copyright, 1896, by
the Associated ess.]-London news
papers are now more fully realizing
the Importance of the presidential cleo
ton in the United States to Great Bri-
tain and the continent. The Daily
Telegraph says that the
American department of the stock
exchange is a veritable sick room, be-
cause English capitalists will never
take their interest from the United
States in deprecated currency" and it
goes on to say that the adoption of BIZ
metallism, or as it would become later,
the silver standard. in America, would
practically mean the reputation Of
their debts, and it is this sort of thing
which leads to the withdrawal of en-
voys and declarations of war"
The following is from the London
Times and Echo, paper of enormous
circulation, owned by Passmore Ed
wards, an Englishman of enormous
wealth.:
The election of w. ]. Bryan-a
young man from Nebraska, an impas-
stoned orator, but hitherto an unknown
politician-as the Democratic candidate
for the presidency seals the adherents
of the Democrats to the silverites. The
gravity of the situation can hardly be
exaggerated. 1t is by no means so
certain that Mr.. Bryan may not be
elected, and if he should be, and con-
gress decres that silver, which is today
worth half-a-crown a pound, shall be
worth shillings, and that all national
gold bonds shall be paid in silver, there
will be war between this country and
the United States before this time next
year. The great capitalists who forced
Gladstone to occupy Egypt will compel
any government in office here to declare
war against America, sooner than that
their holdings of American bonds shall
shrink to half values.
Threats of this kind will not deter
the American people from rejecting, by
an enormous majority, English domi-
nation and British financial system.
This is the same England which the
United States has on two memorable
occasions defeated in war, and there |
is yet enough manhood in America to |
defend our homes against English |
greed and aggression. 1t is the same |
old fight over again. The American |
Tory, who hung upon our rear and !
made secret and open war against |
American liberty, yet exists in New
York, Chicago and other great money
centers. He yet longs for an Amer
lean monarchy. He yet believes that
the republic Is a failure. He does not
disguise his hatred Of the common peo-
pie. He is now plotting for the disin-
of those who cannot
qualify on a property basis. His purse
Is open to Mark Hanna. His daughter
Is either married to or scheming for a
with an English lord.
If the election of William Jennings
Bryan means war with England, we
must prepare for war. Bryan will be
elected, and in the war which will en-
sue, the English aristocracy and their
American allies, the hereditary Tories
Of New York and elsewhere, will be
wiped out of existance. They never
won a fight against American freemen
Ind they never will.
