My friends you have the right to ASH
them when they will tell you that they
are laboring for the benefit of the labor
ing men, o have the right to ask them
to produce some proof of the statement
that they feel an interest in those who
toll. When did the Sauls of 1,arsus be-
come converted to our religion? When
did these men who stoned the prophets
turn around and say: Peace on earth
and good will to men?' You have the
right to consider the manner and the
words of those who come to preach a
gold standard. its defenders, who raise
themselves to the full height of their
moral stature and say: Shall we allow
these poor, ignorant. incompetent peo-
| pie to ruin themselves?'=
A Voice-By what meanS does money
get into circulation?
Mr.. Bryant am glad my friend asked
\ the question. The best way to investi-
gate the question is to put yours into
circulation. My trouble has been TO keep
my money from getting into circulation
before 1 wanted 1t to. Suppose a man
raises a crop of wheat and sells his
wheat for money how does he get his
money into circulation? Suppose Il man
owns a railroad and collects fares, how
does he get his money into circulation?
| You get a certain amount of money and
then putting it into circulation is a thing
so familiar that 1 need not attempt to
describe 1t. How do you get gold into
circulation? -.4'|
A Voice-We don't see any.
I stand corrected. You produce gold
from the mines. You take that gold to
the mint and have 1t stamped into mon
ey. That money is yours, as the bullion
was yours before the mint stamped it.
You take that gold back and you pay
the nan who produced 1t from the
mine. You pay the interest upon any
debt that may hang over he mine. You
pay all the expenses of production, and
then the profits that remain are u
to spend. That is the way you do with
gold. That is the way you do with sill
Yer. 1 want you to take this money
question and settle it for yourselves.

when they want the votes of employees,

Mark Hanna" and hisses.) My friends.
when we want votes for the Chicago
ticket, we go to the sovereigns them
selves, who are the only owners of their
votes. If the employees of the railroads
want to vote for the Chicago ticket,
those who are in charge of the roads
have no right to prevent them, and UNI
der the Australian ballot they cannot
prevent them. l want to feel that 1
have behind me a majority of the Amer
lean people, who will stand by me. while
l put in force every word CT the Chicago
platform If there is power enough In the
government to do it. My friends. they
a us anarchists. No man who owns
property that he came by honestly need
fear that a hair upon his head will be
disturbed. as the Chicago platform, If
1t means anything, mean that we shall
go back to the period when the motto of
this government was, Equal rights to
all and special privileges to none" We
do not want to appeal to those who wish
TO use the government for private ends.
We do not appeal to those who want the
government to stand by and protect
them while they trample upon the rights
of citizens. We want the support of
those who will want to secure for this
government the o of every citizen by
making the government so good as to
deserve the love of every citizen.

In his music hall speech Mr.. Bryan said
in part:
Ladies and Gentlemen: l am not vain

personal tribute. 1t simply illustrates that
in a government like this the people lave
n right to take one of their number and
make him their instrument to accomplish

that the American people are indifferent
to geographical position or to age, or to
anything else. provided they believe IN the
platform upon which the mar stands and
that he Will carry out that platform If

form appeals to the hearts of the Amer

lieve that the reason Why the people, with
an enthusiasm seldom seen before, are
flock!ng to the standard raised at Chicago
Is simply that the American people believe
that they are able to govern themselves
without the aid of synd.cates, foreign or
