The Dispatch offers an outrageous In
suit 10 our workingmcn. It continues to
claim that hey are oulldozed and ooerced
into declaring their opposition to free
silver and their desire for sound money.
The Dispatch ought TO rocollcct that the
worklngmen Of Richmond are neither
slaves nor crayens. They are indepen-
dent men. Of their own way OF thinking.
and they wear no mans collar. The Dis
patch insults them every day with IT'S
charge that they are driven.
But the Dispatch is itself palpahly
coerced. II claimed before the Chicago
Convention that il was for sound money
and against free silver. But the Chicago
lash has driven it into an abandonment
Of what II claimed to be It's principles. and
advocacy Of what IL told its readers three
months ago was destruction.
Is the Dispatch advocating now what II
believes TO be d true and just financial
policy. or is it advocating from other
motives than those Of conviction OF nghJ
tbe policy of free silver and the othei
rlanks OF the Chicago platform which are
novel to Democracy
Is the Dispatch TO be forced against us
Judgment and conscience?
Perhaps. having been whipped INTO SUD
mission and now covering in aojeet terror
., the party lash. it is seeking TO take
snch comfort as it can get from drag
- others into its own pitiable position
