In 1866 the National debt was about
So, 1877, ,O00,0 900. 1t is now about 81, 500,
100000. But it will take more of the
staples produced in this country, such
as wheat, corn, pork, beef, cotton,
iron, ETC., to pay the debt to-day than
it would have taken to pay it all in
1866. This is due to the fact of the
appreciation of gold, the standard
money, and hence the apparent de-
cline in the value of all commodities.
Will you vote to continue the gold
standard and more bond issuesH No!
Then vote for Bryan for President
and Meekison for Congress.

Dear Sir II was pleased to re.

like you do not intend to be in.
husnced by them. My construction
OF the law is the result of careful ex.
animation and feel quite sure an
impartial court would confirm it il
the case could be tried b efore a
court. send you my views as fully
stated In a speech. Your idea is
that we propose to repudiate or vio-
late a promise when we offer to re-
deem the principal" in legal ten
ders.
I think the bondholder violates
his promise when he refuses to
take the same kind of money he paid
for the bonds. If the case is to be
tested by the law, am right; if it is
to be tested by Jay Cookies adver-
tisements, I am wrong. I hate repu-
diation or anything like it, but we
ought not to be deferred from do
ing what is right by fear of unde-
served epithets.
IT, under the law as it stands, the
holders of the five-twenties can only
be paid in gold, then we are repudi-
ators if we propose to pay otherwise.
If the bondholder canlegally demand
the only kind of money he paid, then
he is a repudiator and extortioner to
demand money more valuable than
he gave.

There is a mystery about how it hap
