AN OLD SONG.
Hard Times Come Again no More.

Let us pause in life's pleasures and count its
many tears,
While we all sup sorrow with the poor.
There's song that will linger forever in our
ears;
Oh, hard times, come again no more!
CHORUS:
'Ifs the song the sigh of the weary;
Hard times, hard times, come again no
more.
Many days you have fingered around my
cabin door;
Oh, hard times come again no more.
While we seek mirth and music, and music
light and gay,
There are frail forms fainting at the door;
Though their voices are silent their pleading
looks will say,
Oh, hard times, come again no more.
Chorus: 'Tis the song, etc.
There's pale dropping maiden, who tolls hei
life away,
With worn heart whose better days arr
o'er
Though her voice would be merry, tits sigh
ing all the day;
oh, hard times, come again no more,
Chorus: IT'S the song, etc.
IT'S sigh that is waited across the trouble,
| wave;
IT'S wall that is heard upon the shore;
'Tis a dirge that is murmured around tn
| lonely grave,
Oh, hard times, come again no more.
Chorus: 'Tis the song, etc.

In their hands lie their own destlnies. II
is for them to ponder, consider, read
and digest the conditions of this country,
study that the root Of the evils may be
unearthed and destroyed, that their own

TRUSTS AND TARIFFS.

The Louisville Courier-J ournal says
that consumers have tamely submitted
to oppression from trusts in the United
States with which no other country has
had to contend. Tariffridden Germany,
says this paper, is not so harrassed, for
its government is a mild despotism
which would not tolerate such exactions
for day. AS long as the trusts are
permitted by Congress to frame the inn
port schedules they will flourish in this
country, but no longer. If Mr.. Mckinley
doesn't believe it, let him try putting on
the free list some of the articles whose
prices have been artificially boosted up,
A "friend authorized to speak for the
Presideut-elect" says it is his intention
to do what he can to restrain the opera
tions of trusts. Here is a simple and
easy method.

LETTER FROM MARY Z. LEASE.
At the Conclusion of the Banquet the
Following Letter From Mrs.
Lease Was Read.

New YORK CITY, Jan. S, 1897.
Hon. Nathan HOlloWay, President
Bryan Free SilOer Cln6, Canton, Ohio;
DEAR SIR:-Replying to your kind
invitation to address the "Free Silver
Banquet" on the eve Of Jan. 7, find that
previously contracted dates make it i'm
possible for me to be present on that
occasion.
The campaign through which we have
lust passed has been one of inestimable
value to the people from all educational
standpoint. The political deceivers, who
have kept the people for years wrang-
ling over the tariff, were compelled to
admit that nothing was so important as
the money question. Another campaign
of education will prove to the voters
that the real issue is, "Shall the govern
ment control and issue the circulating
medium called money, or the banks"
Certainly the next four years will be
more fruitful of results than any that
have preceded them. The process which
transforms a republic into despotisn,
the absorption by few of the wealth of
the many, is going on with frightful
rapidity
The Upas tree of corporate wealth has
blighted and made impossible competi-
ton between trusts and individuals. The
struggling masses have been conquered
a condition of sullen passivity prevails
among the workers. Meanwhile the
battle of the giants has begun. The
trusts have turned swords upon each
other, and corporations compete with
corporations. The conditions are forcing
a solution. New lines of battle are being
formed. New arrangements of forces
and new conditions of old problems are
forging to the front
We can but grid ourselves for thu
social revolution which is upon us, rest
ing serene in the faith that any worl
which uplifts the race is not lost; tina
every thinker tnrned loose shakes tn
world, and every thought, word AM
deed uttered or performed for the bel
terment of the world, turns the wheel
of progress and brings us nearer to tha
time when a system of distributed jus
7 tice shall spread its mantle DER tn
earth.
Yours fraternally

CANTON, ONO, Jan. 7, 1897.
TO COL W. HoHoWaI, PyeSidenk
DEAR SIR:-Being unable to be pres
ent with you, allow me to extend my
best wishes for a most enjoyable occa-
sion. Could l but be present, would
doubtless find it feast of reason and a
flow of soul.
Writers of antiquity tell us of a
feast of the gods, evidently indicating
that the female divinities we're also pres
ent, which l rejoice to know will be the
case on this occasion. Gratifying, in
deed, it is to see that our cause is not on
the decline, nor are our friends any
where disposed to give it up.
Better to be right and defeated with a
Bryan at the helm, than victorious with
traitors in the lead. True, Our opponents
claim victory, but they may find in less
than four years that the victors are the
vanquished, as we did. Their great ex.
pectations have already dwindled, and
their lately hopeful followers now look
forward with alarm, not to say despair
The trouble with our opponents is thai
men of principle are not their principa
men.
The friends of constitutional bimet
allism favor laws that will promote thu
general welfare, rather than laws t
build up class interests, trusts and com
bines to further plumber the people.
Shrinkage in values and consequen
distress in legitimate business and in
dustry, are the consequences OF ev
agencies, whose authors promised pros
perity.
Yours very truly,
A. McCSREGoR,

The "Gold Democracy of Illinois" that
libeled the dead hero, Andrew Jackson,
by holding banquet on his birthday
and naming it jackson Banquet"
had letter from Grover Cleveland.
"Gold Democracy" is anomalous. When
did Democracy declare for gold mono
metallsm? When did Andrew Jackson
stand in with the money lords and Shy
locks, raking in his divvy in the name OF
"patriotism ?'' Andrew Jackson wss
made of better stuff. He told such fel-
lows as the Tories who then represented
combined greed, as the "Gold Demo-
cracy" does now, that he would hang
them as high as Haman if they persisted
in their connivance against the govern
ment. 1t was the same "Gold Demo
cracy" that in the hour of the nations
distress, wanted to charge 32 per cent
for money. There are such things as
"Gold Shylocks," "Gold Bandits"
"Gold Enemies of the People" and
"Gold Fools" but there is no such thing
as "Gold Democracy" The "Gold"
prefix precludes the possibility oft being
Democracy" Democracy is the hope
of the plain people. 1t is the enemy of
greed and plunder. 1t is the sworn foe
of those who aim to strike down the
constitution and to place the means Of
subsistence and the fruits of happiness
beyond the reach of the many for the
ACKNOWLEDGMENT of the few. 1t is the
enemy of trusts, combinations and other
forms of robbery, including the high
sounding but distress producing protec-
tive tariff. 1t is the friend of the constitu-
lion and the foe of the enslavement Of
the people by razing prices and raising
money. What comparison is there be-
tween Grover Cleveland, the patron saint
of "Gold Democracy" so called, and
Andrew Jackson, the patriotic champion
of the plain people? How many
spectators and money brokers did
Andrew Jackson tip, that the life blood
of the people should be his in the shape
of i'll. gotten financial gain? The sublime
efIrontery of the later day "patriot" is
shown in Grover Cleveland's letter to
the "Gold Democracy ofIllinois" at their
banquet last night Here is an extract:
"When passion and prejudice threat
en- to obscure the nearing OF true Dem
ocracy and pervert its patriotic purposes,
} a reunion OF those who are Democrats
for the sake of principle and the good OF
their country cannot fail to be inspiring
and useful"
Patriotic purposesl Toryism is the bet
ter term. Patriotic purposes" to
fasten upon this people financial policy
that has invited the wolf to The door o

aire at the head of this treacherous
? administration is pleased to talk of, II

should hear the cries of the people are
conveniently deaf. Gold Democracy in

One of the best addresses at the ban
quet Thursday night was that of Judge
@. II. Grant, of Akron. Mr.. Grant
arraigned the masses of the people who
allowed themselves to be led by the
false representations of the Republican
party. In stirring terms he denounced
the convention to be held in Washing
ton at which it is proposed to shut down
the mills to compel higher prices. He
compared the membevs OF such con-
ayention with the robber bands of India,
and said that these are the results that
can be seen of the recent elections. Mr..
McKinley's principles were severely
handled. "He will enact his tariff laws to
rob the public" said the speaker, "and
call 1t the panacea for all ills. but 1t ID
quack medicine and will do harm to
those who take It."

Senator Allison refused to tie up to
the prosperity wave and will stay in the
Senate. About all the men in the Re-
publican party, who have brains enough
for the place, have been asked to be
Secretary of State, but they have
positively declined. The Major will
doubtless be compelled to fall back on
old John Sherman, who has made so
many attacks upon foreign nations, who
would be persona non grata in Europe
and who is hated like sin at home among
the people who labor. Sherman is a
rank goldbug, agrees that international
agreement" is as much of humbug as
himself, and will use every effort he can
stealthily bring to bear to defeat bimetal'
ism. He has made too many millions
by tipping the wall street sharks to
desert them now. But Mr.. Mckinley is
in bad way for cabinet material and
there is no telling what will happen. If
he has the slightest regard for the wishes
of great majority of the people of Ohio
and Of the nation, he will fight shy of
John Sherman. There's an old codger
