BRYAN and the People.

Mr.. Bryan's triumphal tour through
Illinois is a sample of what may be
expected in every part of the union
when the campaign shall be fairly
opened. Mr.. Bryan is pleasing in ap-
pearance and address, but more i'm
portant than either is the fact that
his cause appeals to the masses. The
strength of free coinage will be more
apparent as time passes. The spec
tacular boiling of goldbugs and gold
organs now in progress should not be
overestimated. 1t will be more than
offset by the quiet union of the COM
mon people who will not make much
noise or appear in long interviews,
but their votes will count.
Even in the heart of New England
and in the state of New York there is
a strong free coinage sentiment,
which, however, is seldom advertised
by the eastern press. Occasionally a
great newspaper like the New York
Herald takes pains to inquire and as
certain the real sentiment of the peo-
pie, but this is the exception to the
rule, which is to suppress news favor
able to silver. When Mr.. Bryan goes
among the workingmen of the fields
and factories of New England, he will
greet sympathetic audiences, and the
results of his sojourn among them
will appear at the election on Nov. 3.

The editor of free silver republi-
can Delphos Co6rant in his last issue
asks the gold standard advocates the
following question:
Will some gold man please explain
how the silver mine owners will get a
one hundred cent dollar for their bull
ion when the same identical dollar is
to be fifty cent dollar in trade?
Come now, fellows, show up. Isn't
it the same kind of dollar in all
hands? If the country goes at once
to cheap dollars at the passage of a
free coinage act, where will the sill
yer mine owner get the 10O-cent sill
yer dollar? Some body's lying about
that.

Five Votes to One.

The Republican papers have been
blowing over the boiling from Bryan
of MIR. Ralph Peters, of Cincinnati, a
leading railroad man there in the
management of the Pennsylvania
system. One of the ''plain people,
working under Mr.. Peters thus writes
to the Engineer-and his letters
graphically details the whole situa-
tion all over our land:
II read that Mr.. Ralph Peters,
a Democrat of twenty-five years
standing, repudiates the platform
and nominee, and will vote for Nc
Kinley and Hobart. Being an EN-.
ploye under Mr.. Peters you certainly
can not expect me to give my real
name, but suffice to say, though but
an employe and he the employer, as
an American citizen I have the same
high privilege Of casting my suffrage
that he has. never knew vote of
my family being cast otherwise than
for Republican. My father voted
for Lincoln and went to the war in
81 and re-enlisted, remaining until
the close of the war. I have three
brothers, none of whom reside at one
place but all of US are going to vote
for the 16 to candidate, because we
believe that the time is here for the
poor man to say we recognize no
classes. The poor man is as good as
the rich man, providing he lives up
to the golden rule. T"

'R THEIR TEN YEARS PATRONAGE.

REPUBLICAN papers, spouters and
mouthers are quick to tell US that
seventy-five Democratic and Mug
wump papers have announced that
they wont support Bryan ON free
silver platform. They do not tell US,
however that nearly every one of the
seyenty-five papers are published in
the big cities of the East, and owned,
many of them, by national bankers
or holders of government offices un-
der Cleveland. Nor do they tell us
that nearly every President of Ma
tional Bank, President of a railroad
company, President of big corpora
ton, the Standard Oil company, the
big iron, and steel, and sugar, and
glass, and cotton, and coal trusts and
combines are opposed to Bryan.
That the syndicate of Wall Street and
London gold gamblers and specula-
tors, the manipulators of govern
Ement bonds who haves sdebasgdl gov
ernment credit by Compelling Govern
ment to increase its public debt, are
to man opposed to Bryan. That in
the contest the wealth of New York
and the east backed by the wealth of
England will be arrayed against the
common people of the middle states,
the west and the south. That it is a
contest between money on one side
and humanity on the other.
Nor do they tell us that many pa
pers in the west, hitherto Republi-
can, have left their party and come
out for Bryan; that multiplied thous-
ands of sturdy farmers and brawny
laborers, hitherto Republicans, hav-
ing felt the depressing effect of gold
rule and are pronouncing for Bryan
and the white metal; that the silver
men and the Populists everywhere
are preparing to make common cause
with the true Democrats against the
combined elements now enlisted un-
der the yellow banner of gold Demo

THE Toledo Bee asks, granting that
the free coinage of silver will raise the
price of the farmers products, how
this will help the laborer, merchant
or artisan. 1t will help all of them
in this way, at least so up in this
neck of the woods: The better the
prices the farmer gets for his pro-
duce, the better the business man
fares, for it makes his business lively,
as the farmer will buy goods when
he has plenty of money that he would
not purchase if his pocketbook was
empty. And surely when the farmer
is flush with money, and the merch-
ants trade is booming, the laborer
and artisan come in for their share
of the prosperity, for the farmer will
improve the looks of his farm by
new, modern and comfortable build
ings, and the merchant will push
needed enterprises in his town, and
favor improvements of all kinds, pri-
vate and public, and in this way build
up demand for labor of all kinds.
This state of affairs may not be so
well for money centers, and it GER
tainly is not, but the common people
benefit by it. 1t will reduce the
amount of mortgages wonderfully and
will have tendency of making the
rate of interest cheaper, which every
body will admit is too high for the
farmer or merchant to do business
unOn.

The editor of the Cincinnati En-
qOirer has cool way of calling down
the New York San for its erratic
utterance against silver. In its Tues
days edition it raped the late Ben
Butler champion in the following en-
phatic manner:
"Silver dollars are as good today
as gold dollars, because they are fix
ed in number, and, roughly speaking,
are exchangeable for paper dollars,
which are usually redeemable in
gold. ."-NeD York Sun.
Silver dollars are exchangeable for
silver certificates only, and silver GER
tificates are redeemable in standard
silver dollars only. So say the treas
uary regulations 1884. Department

WE wish every farmer reader of
the NORTHWEST to read an article
which is headed "Why Wheat, Cot
ton and Silver are low" which is to
be found in this weeks paper. The
article is from the pen of Judge
Brown, formerly of Fulton county,
and is clipped from the Ohio Farmer.
1t is worth reading and considering,
as it contains facts and argument
which cannot be gainsaid, and illus
trates in forceable and convincing
manner why England wishes to keep
the price of the American silver where
it is.

FIFTY men of these United States
have it in their power, by reason of
the wealth which they control, to
come together within the next twen-
ty-four hours and arrive at an under
standing by which every wheel of

from revolving, every avenue of trade
blocked and electric key struck dumb.
