To Organize for Bryan, Sewall and
TAYLOR,

To Organize for Bryan, Sewall and
Taylor.
The Republican party represents
gold. The Democratic party repre-
sents gold and silver. The Ameri-
can people, next November, must
decide this matter. Mckinley and
Hobart stand for gold and gold
coinage alone. Bryan and SeWall
stand for the unlimited coinage of
both silver and gold, with equal
rights to all men. Those who are in
favor of both silver and gold as
constitutional money as our ances-
tors had it, for eighty years, are
cordially invited and earnestly
urged to meet at the courthouse in
Columbia, on Saturday evening
July % to organize Bryan, Sewall
and Taylor clubs, to more effective
ly bring out the silver vote in No
Vember next.
This government owes of public
and private debts more than twelve
billions of dollars. 1t would take
every dollar of gold in this govern
ment to pay half the interest on that
vast sum, for one year. Men. of
sense and prudence, are you willing
to retain fraudulent financial syj-
tenn on such a basis that your
government could be bankrupted
any day? The Republican party
has ignored half of your constitu-
tional money. Can you tolerate
such financial pilliage? Will you
aid cause that will certainly lead
you to financial ruin?
France to-day has six hundred
and fifty millions of silver dollars
legal tender for every debt, public
and private in the government.
Silver never harmed this or any 9TH
er government. 1t is the bad,
vicious legislation by the Republi-
can party for the last thirty years
that has ruined everything. Why
any Democrat, even gold Demo-
crat, wishes to retain a financial
system that would give him only
81 per capita of standard money
to do business on, is not only mar
velous but absolutely preposterous,
1t only equals in mendacity it's twin
sisters, prescription and disfran-
chisement.
Democrats have you lost memory
or are you in your dotage? If not
let me again urge you to be on hand
next Saturday night and take steps
to retrieve your county from the
vilest oligarchy that ever existed on
earth. PARTY DEMOCRAT.

Remember Your Mother AT Home,

The following is taken from an ex-
change: IF you have a mother at
home remember her, how she loved
you when you were a babe in her
arms. Remember how she loved
you when you had grown to young
manhood. Think of the Joy it would
give your mother to see her son
walking in the paths of honor
and right; her great love is con-
centrated upon her boys welfare.
Yes, she will watch you with
care as long as you live. When
you are tempted to do wrong, re-
member your mother at home

to turn somersaults, even at 80, the

its effects on ones girdle measure
