wants the gold standard because 1t is
good for the laborer. He is for II because
1t is good for the business men. You tell
them that these people are willing to risk
bimetallism and then what does he say?
Rising to the full hight of his moral statue
he tells you that he cannot according to
his conscience allow other people to hurt
themselves, even IL they want to hurt
themselves. daughter and applause). If
the eastern financier Is troubled with ina
bility to sleep, his doctor does not ask the
cause; he simply tells him to quit worry
ing about the poor people of this country
and go to sleep. OaughteD. My friends,
when you try to convince him that the
great masses of the people have a right
to a voice in the legislation in the country
in which they live, he tells
YOU that while he would profit
by the free coinage of silver.
that because he loved Others better than
he loved himself, he will ram the gold
standard down their threats whether they
want it or not. (Applause)
Do you believe then that when
they tell you that they are entirely dis
Interested? (Cries of NO" mo" and APP
plause) 1 do not. When l find a man
who wants a certain financial policy be-
cause it would be good for him, / say he
is very natural sort of a man, and that
1 have seen men like him before But
ing to help me against my will, who is
trying to do something for me that 1 don't
want, who is always feeling for me,
watch to see that he don't reach me when
he feels for me. (Cheers.) When these
advocates of the gold standard asserted
that the free coinage of silver would be
good for them. it took great load off my
mind. For twenty years unese people ac-
cording to their say so have been sacri-
ficing themselves for the rest Of
the people, do not believe
they ought to be allowed to simply
wrong themselves for our good. Gaugh-
ter and cheers.) And when these people
insisted that free coinage would be good
for them thought then that now our
time has come. We are paying back this
debt that has been accruing for twenty
years, and we will make them enjoy the
benefits of the free coinage all the rest
of their natural lives, and we will bear
with forttude whatever evils come of it,
daughter and cheers) Now, my friends
1 now must close. (Cres of go on, go
on.'D I have been proving my loyalty to
the ratio of 16 to l by working sixteen
hours in one day, and 1 cannot go beyond
that, my friends. / want you to take this
question and do what you think is best,
and whatever is the result l shall will
ingly abide it, whether it be to elect or
to defeat, conscious that victory must at
last come to all those who fight for the
cause of truth" Great cheering)
