THEY WANT

We are in receipt Of a letter from
Harvey Fisk & Son, dealers in selected
securities, No. "a Nassau Street, New
York, asking what position this paper
has decided to take in regard to
National politics for this campaign.
They state that they aare led to make
this inquiry on account Of the change
of attitude of many of our leading
newspapers, an example of which will
be found in the New York Sun. in
their leading editorial Of July 10th, a
copy Of which we enclose They
also want a copy Of the issue Of the
INDEPENDENT i'll which our position
in this fight was announced.
In compliance with their request
we will forward to their address a
copy Of the last issue of the WEEKLY
INDEPENDENT, containing the an
nouncement OF If position and the
big American eagle whose
for Bryan and Sewall and the free
coinage Of silver at the ratio OF l6 to
l will penetrate the benighed minds
of the money grabbers of New York
before this campaign is over.
The editorial from the New York
Sun, spoken Of above, is valuable in
this neck of the woods only for the
following pen picture it contains of
Grover Cleveland, the apostle of the
Sound money" views held by the mil
lionaires OF the East:
Since the war while the Democrat
ic party was being built up again in
the North, the South, where lay the
Democracy's main strength, made no
sign Of desire for a new departure.
1t accepted willingly as it's candi-
dates that pure disciple Of the Demo-
cratic faith, Samuel j. Tilden Of New
York, Winfield Scott Hancock of
Pennsylvania, pretending to nothing
but party orthodoxy, and Grover
Cleveland, an unknown quantity, but,
like Tilden, coming from the conser-
vative State of New York. But the
seeds Of socialistic revolution were in
the South all the time, and, by a sim
gular fatality, the first man to obtain
possession Of the Presidents office in
the Democratic name both weakened
Democratic sentiment and famed
populism's destructive flame. A po-
litical freak, of alien instincts, with
out conception Of party government,
and aiming at personal government
only, he destroyed the idea of party,
coherency and allegiance to tradition,
headed and inspired. in the mad cru

as the Sun is now supporting the
financial policy Of this political

Grover should never cease to pray
for de~liyerance from the tender mer-
cies OF his new found friends.

THE COMING OF THE DAY.

The National Bimetallist, edited by
ex-Congressman Bartine of Nevada,
has in its issue of July 18th the fol-
lowing ringing editorial on the work
OF the Chicago conventions:
The work Of the Democratic Con-
vention in this city is the grandest
triumph of true A~mericanism to be
found in the modern political history
OF the country. 1t was peculiarly
and essentially the peoples victory.
No matter what any man may think
of the merits Of the great monetary
question before US for solu5ion. it is
impossible for him to blind the fact
that the voice OF the people was heard
in that great convention hall, and that
it was the cohorts of the money power
that traliei their banners in the dust
Of overwhelming defeat.
The venal press of our great cities,
owned and controlled as it is by
monied syndicates, and in many cases
foreign syndicates at that. is literally
boiling over with frantic rage.
Representing enormous aggregates
Of amassad wealth, it is cut to the
very quick at the failure of it's efforts
to hoodwink and delude the people.
The action Of the greatest represen-
tative body Of men assembled in the
Uuited States during the la st qulrter
Of a century is characterized as Gvile
dishonor" and the principal candidate
is denounced rs an anarchist"
Anarchist, indeed!
A man whose private life is without
q blemish, whose public career is
without a stain. A man who has
come right from the ranks of honest
toll, and who by his own labor,
coupled with his splendid abilities,
has risen step by step until to-day he
stands as the candidate of a great po-
litical party for presidential honors.
The assertion that Mr. Bryan is an
anarchist is equivalent to declaring
that the farmers of the Mississippi
valley, the planters of the South, und
the sturdy pioneers Of the inter-
mountain region and the Pacific
Slope are all anarchists for they are
the men who have named MI. Bryan
as their standard bearer.
The rage thus manifested is simply
the inspiration of fear. The utter in
difference with which the millionaire
delegates of the East were treated,
the steady determination of two-thlrds
of that convention to have candidates
anda platform in accord with the SEN
timents Of the great multitude Of men
land women) who constitute the vot-
ing strength of the party, has filed
them with blank dismay.
. And hence it is that the silver agi-
tation which a few months ago was
merely a "craze" has now developed
into full-hedged "aDarchy."
There is M danger OF the people
being either deceived or frightened
by such rant. For twenty years
the battle'of the standards has been
in progress. With their opponents
entrenched behind the ramparts of
wealth, the ~bimetallists have strug-
gled on in the face Of every imagin-
able disadvantage.
frequently defeated, often betrayed
by false friends, and always divided
by the wiles Of tho enemy, they have
gained steadily in strength until they
