Of the district headquarters at No 2'Si Pacifc-s'.
This club has recently absorbed the Mckinney ana
Hobart Club of this same district, and the memoctS
Of both organizations are now WORKING nara s'ue

thusiastc one and the hall was crowded Ihefe

81 congratulate the workingmen of the Twenty.
fourth Ward upon this splendid meeting II SHOWS
that they are aware of the tremendous issues al
stake and are determined 10 crush out or existence
every evidence or possibility of free silver free
trade or anv other Popul;stic doctrine. The Demo-
cratic candidates Messrs. Bryan and Sewaii, whlie
masquerading as friends Of the workingmen nave
for wears been benefited financially by close con-
nec;ion with monopoes. Neither Mr.. Bryan as
attorney for the Missouri Pacific Railway. nor MI
sep-an as a member of various trusts. wonid take
out his profits in 53-cent silver dollars One "ouiu
think 10 hear Mr. Bryans enthusiastic speeches
that he was a second Luther or Wesley. and was
rong 10 save the United States with a new policy
Ru; we know better. The idea of pushing cheap-
or metal TO the front currency has oeen trieo
innumerable times and always failed. The higher
priced metal has always been driven from circu-
laton and stored away. while the counu! Was
driven absolutely TO a gold or silver basis. In ac-
cordance with which the cheaper metal. ihe
rropositon plainly put is that any man can take
ss cents or thercabouts Of silver 10 any Ini'ed
States mint and get in exchange silver dollar a
clean proft 10 him Of A. cents. Very well. who Is
10 lose this money? The only connection Uncle
Sam had with 1t is that he stamped one dollar on
Il and passed il out again. But. alas. he made no
agreement to stand responsible for the n cents or
fictitious value the coin. =.
The true way 10 insure sound hnancldI cohul-
tion for the United States Is 10 adopt hlgh pro
feciive tariff giving the balance of trade, ma
foreign countries in buying more OF our soods .hah
we do OF theirs will be forced TO pay us the di1er-
ence In bright yellow gold. nsuring us fu Treas.
ury and freedom from debt As Mckinley has Wei
said better open the American factories 10 our
workmen than the minis TO the silver OF the word
EJECT Mckinley and Hobart. Black and Woodrnfi.
and insure prosperity % America and Americans
and a clean State Government.
The following resolution was adopted with much
display OF enthusiasm:
