Union OF tho Yoke.

With the avowed purpose Of pauper-
lZlng our people and destroying free
government i'll this country, the pluto
cratic classes havo combined the gold
barons and tho national banks of two
continents to fight the battles of imperi-
allsm i'll America. They have increased
our bonded debt under the pretext of
maintaining gold reserve, and that in
such way that at the maturity of the
bonds 1t will cost tho American people
more than $500, 900 to keep 800,
600, 600 intact for three years-obligat
ed the people to tho extent Of So to keep
one cowardly, unpatriotic dollar in the
vaults of the national treasury.
With such an infamous record fresh
IN the minds Of the people and the
wreck and ruin wrought by the single
gold standard everywhere visible, if we
cannot unite forces and destroy the last
leech of the money power in this coun-
try, we had better curse the graves of
our forefathers and present an uncon-
dltlonal surrender to Cleveland, Nor
gan and the Rothschilds or turn ont the
lamp III the watch tower and ask God
TO stop the sun six hours after it has
gone down. If we fail to unite forces
this year, we deserve to wear the yoke
OF bondage for all time to GOMEZ. r.

Bryan On Pensions.

"The next session of congress will
have to wrestle with one deficiency OF
$36, 100000. This on account OF pen
sions. The appropriation for pensions
for the next year must not be less than
S15O, 900, 900. 1t is therefore easy
arithmetic to perceive that the appro-
priation that congress must make for
pensions next session must aggregate
not less than $185, 100000.
"This tremendous sum would in it.
self be enough to run reasonable gov
eminent. One would not complain II
it we're an honest debt, but large pro-
portion of it is not debt, because it was
never earned by any act of patriotism
or heroic service.

despoiled of no mean proportion OF this

how many more years it will take to

Yes, we heard a few years ago of
what lot of frauds, buns and coffee
coolers the pension rolls consisted, and
of an investigation" at at expense to
the government greater than it would
have cost to have allowed the pensions

that less than one in $4,000 of the
claimants had perpetrated frauds upon
the government. Can the business men
of the democratic yes, or any other
party, show a cleaner record for hon
esty than that?
