A LONG HILL TO CLIMB.

The nation is being strangled with
contraction cord in the hands of the
thugs of Wall Street. 1t is also being
held up by brigands that monopolize
public utilities. Its life blood is being
drained by the vampires of usury. Its
domain is being wrested from its le-
gitimate owners and turned over to
aliens.
The confidence game worked on de-
positors by criminal or incompetent
bankers whereby the people are robbed
of millions annually still goes on. Does
any one suppose that the coinage of
few silver dollars will remedy all these
evils? Will the output of our minta
run to their full capacity loosen the
contraction cord that is strangling our
people soon enough to avert financial
death?
Is such coinage of more importance
than the saving to the people of $780,
100000 annually through government
ownership of telegraph, telephone, and
er significance than the saving of an
equal amount through government
ownership of telegraph, telephone, and
express lines? Is it of greater signifi-
| canoe than the demand that the people
own and operate the trusts and not
the trusts own and victimize the peo-
pie? All these things have the people
demanded. All these reforms do they
expect from the hands of the young and
vigorous party that stands to-day as
firmly for free coinage as for any other
tenet of its political faith. Those who
bear the burdens have intuitively
grasped the remedy. They havo
spoken in language as solemn and
sublime as the Declaration of Inde-
pendence, the Sermon on the Mount or
the Decalogue given amid the clouda
and thunders of Sinai
Let there be no trifiing with things
that are sacred. Let there be no bar
ter and sale of principles for temporary
victory. Woe to the leader, and woe
to the convention selected to uphold
this modern Magma Charta who shall
dare barter its grand principles for IA
single plank platform, or worse still,
go over to the Democracy.
