MY friends, those who live fifty
years from now, reading the pages Of
history, will envy those who lived in
this day of such wonderful opportu-
nifty. l was born after the war. 1 be-
long to that generation which has
never had an opportunity to prove its
love of country upon the battle field,
but oh, my countrymen, never in the
history of this country, has there been
such an opportunity for the citizen to
prove his love, not only of his coun-
as there is today. Great applause and
cheers.) Show me a people oppressed:
show me a man who has suffered:
show me a man who has been made
the victim of legislation anywhere, anu
1 will show you man from whose
heart goes out a silent prayer that we
shall win in this conflict. (Applause.)
Show me an aristocracy anywhere that
despises the common people as built
of inferior mould-show me a king who
is jealous of every right his subjects
have-show me a manufacturer that
has no thirst except the thirst for gold
show me any aggregation of wealth
that lives by opposition
OF his fellow men everywhere, and /
will show you people who are standing
by and begging that success may
ccme to those who are opposed to US.
Great applause.) AS the presidential
nominee of the Peoples party alliance,
want to say to you that I do not de-
sire the involuntary support of any citi-
zen OF this nation. We appeal TO the
will, we submit our cause to the judg
ment of the people, and if / am elected,
want to feel that behind me l have
q majority of these people, and then,
so help me God, l will carry out the
platform to the letter. Great applause
and cheers.) The nation is discouraged
by abuse. Abuse has always been the
lot Of those who fought against en-
trenched privileges If you become an
noyed turn back to the pages of his
tory and for every name that is ap-
piled to you you will find one equally
severe applied to Jefferson; for every
name applied to you, you will find
ONE EQUALLY SEVERE
applied to Jackson All, my friends, I
may come nearer than that. The great
spirit yonder (pointing to a portrait of
Lincoln), was as Indignantly attacked
by the aristocracy of wealth, and
v ould be as unpopular today in New
York or. Boston among our financiers
as Jackson was or Jefferson was in his
day Any man who believes that the
people ought to stand equal before those
laws would be abused by those who de-
sire favoritis'm in legislation, and spec
ial privileges from the government. Be
not terrified. Do your duty as you see
it. l believe that we shall triumph
aye, more than beEeve-as surely as
tomorrow sun shall rise. the day viii
come when the morning sun shall rise
bineitaIlism Will be restored to this
country, the day will come when the
money of the constitution will again be
ours. The day will come when trusts
shall obey the law; the day will come
when corporations will cease to be
GREATER THAN THE GOVERNMENT.
The day will come when the people OF
this country will be content to stand side
by side-not one upon another-the day
VIII come when, standing shoulder 10
shoulder, they shall march on, each one
content to enjoy life and liberty and the
pursuit Of happiness, without attempting
to deprive his neighbor of equal opportun-
ity and equal rights" Great applause)
