The Progress does not support
Bryan simply because he is the NOM
inee of the Democratic party. 1t
does so willingly, cheerfully, earnest
ly; because it indorses his policy and
every declaration Of the platform on
which he stands. Oar paper believes
the welfare of the people depends on
the carrying out Of the Democratic
platform. It believes that the sue
cess of Mckinley or Palmer will
eventually lead to a contest, with
dealy weapons, between the wage
earnsrs and plutocrsts; the former
battling for bread, the lattr to keep
them in want.
The Progress., 1896-09-26

That man who believes the doctrine
of free SILVER, as enunciated in the
Democratic platform, will lnjure our
Nation, should vote the ticket which
he thinks will insure the defeat of
Bryan. This financial question is one
which has risen high above party aft.
iliation, has ascended to one of con-
science, and honest conviction and
interest in the general welfare.

Hon. B. F. Atrial seems to have
quite a cinch on the confidence of

happy return to the ways of the good
old times when 'the office sought tie
