Let Is Organize.

BimetaliSm, or twU-mCtaliSm,
is the use of both gold and silver as
money without discrimination
against either metal. which Of course
means that the same privileges of
mintage and legal tender he given
to both metals. Our minis are at
this time open to the free and I'M
limited coinage Of gold into full lC-
gal tender coin, but this privilege is
dcuicd to silver. Until We give the
same privileges To silver as to gold,
not have Bimotalism. BimCtaliSm
means, therefore, the free and I'M
limited coinage of both gold and sill
Yer into full legol tender coins.
Those Of all parties who believe
that the restoration Of silver to its
place as money can alone bring pros
perity to our producing classes must
put aside mutual dislikCS and petty
jCalousies, cease to work at cross
purposes and unite their iOrCCs.-
Unless they do SO their efforts will
be fruitleSS If the money CIiQuCs
can succeed in keeping bimctalists,
who have hitherto acted with Demo-
cratic, Republican or PopuliSt par
ties apart, and ut loggcrhrads with
ono another, their plan OF campaign
SO pcrsistcntly and successfully fol-
lowed by divide and Rule will
again be crowned with success"
"Diyidc and Rule" is the subtle
plan Of campaign of the gold mono
metalists. Bimctalists can only sue
ccssfully combat it by taking well to
heart and acting on the old rallyiug
cry Of the patriots Of l776-"UnitCd
We Stand, Divided We Fall"
Believing that there shonld be an
organization Of the BimctalistS of
Grcenbrier county, the undersigned
respectfully request all persons who
believe in the coinage of both gold
and silver into full legal tender coins
without discrimination against ci-
Their metal, irrespective OF past
party affiliations, to meet nj the
Courthouse Of this county on Tues
day, the 22nd day Of June, 1897, be-
