(Cheers) Out in our state the republican
committee of one of the counties appealed
to the school teachers trying to show
them that a gold standard was good
thing for them, thereby trying to set the
school teachers against the rest of the
people, and now they have appealed to the
church organizations and church papers,
and are now trying to array them
against the free coinage of sill
ger. Well. / could stand any appeal made
by the advocates of the gold standard 40
almost any class better than an appeal
made to the preachers and teachers of re-
hRion. If there is one thing that the
church people of this country could af-
ford to array themselves against 1t Is
the gold standard, and it is being advo-
Gated by the American people at this
time. (Applause) Yet the republican
party is appealing TO church people 20
take their place upon the side Of the gold
standard. How things have changed IN
the laght eighteen hundred years Look
at the PEOPLE who are at the head of the
gold standard propaganda in the United
States Look at the bondholding class,
and the money-changer classes, the
br ollerlng classes of New York, who are
trying to fasten gold standard upon the
people of this country, not openly but
secretly and in disguise and then turn
back eighteen hundred years when
the meek and lowly Saviour
threw the same kind of people
out of his temple because they had made
his house a den of thieves. Enthusiastic
cheers) And then think that these peo-
pie come and appeal to the ministers Of
the gospel and the church papers to save
them from the wrath TO come. daughter
and APPLAUSE My friends when certain
ministers Of the gospel denounce the great
mass of the people who stand behind free
taaF la do
nounced these advocates of free coinage,
and have taken their places upon the side
of these great aggregations of wealth, /
remind them that when the Saviour was
here II was the common people who heard
him gladly, the very people whom these
ministers to-day call anarchists and So
cialists. Great applause). My friends,
when / find, there are not many of them,
but they are quite conspicuous when |
find these men casting their lot upon that
side and exhausting abusive language in
their description of the great masses Of
the people of this country feel like say
ing to them that If they will take their
chances with Dives, will risk my chances
with Lazarus. Decide whether you want
to support the present financial policy or
not"
