From Speech by Daniel Webster sixty.
Years Ago.
The following warning was uttered
by Daniel Webster in The United States
senate sixty years ago How well they
apply to the present viii be apparent
to everybody. The debate was on the
policy respecting the withdrawal of
the deposits from the Bank Of the Uni
ted States:
The natural hatred OF the poor
| against the rich
THE danger OF n moncyed urlstOc-
racy-a power as great and dangerous
rs that resisted by the revolution; q
call 10 new declaration OF Indepcnd-
| ence!"
sir, hdmonlsh the people against
| outcries like these! | admOnlsh every
industrious laborer in the country TO be
| on his guard against such delusion.
| tell him the attempt to plaff on his
| passions aalnst his interests and to pre-
| vail on him In the name Of liberty to
destroy all the fruits OF liberty In the
name OF patriotism; TO lnJure and af-
illct his country. and In the name OF
his own Independence and make him
a begBnr and n slave!
Has he dollar?
"He Is advised to that which will
destroy half Its value
Has lie hands TO labor?
Let him rather fold them and sit
still than be pushed on by fraud and
artiiice 10 support measures which will
render his labor useless and hopeless.
Sir, the very man, OF all others, who
has the deepest Interest In sound
currency, and suffers the most from
mischievous legislation In money mat
teFs, IS the man who earns his daily
bread by his daily toll.
deprecated currency, sudden
changes of prices, paper money, falling
between morning and noon, and falling
still lower between noon and night;
these things constitute the very har-
vest time OF SPECTATORS and the whole
race OF those who are at once idle and
crafty. OF that race, too. the 'Catalines'
OF all times, marked. so as to be known
forever by one stroke or the historians
pen, as thOse, greedy OF other mems
property, md prod!gal OF their own!
capitalists, too, may outlive such
times. They may either prey on the
earnings OF labor or they may hoard.
PreyinS on nobody, he becomes the
prey OF ALL His property is In his
hands. His. fund. his productive free
hold, his oil, IS his labor
Whether he work on his own small
capital or an0ther's. his living Is still
earned by his industry. and when the
money OF the country becomes dcpre-
clated and deOased. whether IL be aduI-
terated coin or paper without credit.
that Industry Is robbed OF It's reward,
he then labors for n. country whose
laws cheat him out OF his bread!"

Sir! l pronounce the author OF such

destcstahle fraud on the community;
double fraud; fraud TO cheat men
out OF the!- property and out OF the
earnings OF their labor. by first cheat
Ing them out Of their understanding.
The natural hatred of the poor to

Sir! It shall only be when am drawn

They ought not to dlshonor the cause

1t would be interesting to know the In
side OF the movement to present 10 Mr..
Bryan a silver trophy In the name OF the
lsraelites OF Chicago. Il Is well known
mat the lsraelftes of the country are
overwhelmingly for sound money.
They take this stand because they arc
business men and desire n solid .founda-
ton for business: also because they are
patriotic American citizens and are
unwilling that the national honor shall
be sullied by any suggestion OF repudia-
ton.
1t was. therefore. in line with the thea
trical spirit OF the Bryan campaign that
at least some show OF support should
be made to appear among n body OF
citizens, known to be almost solldly
against the Bryan Idea.
