DEMOCRATIC VICTORY.
Governor Campbell Confident Of
Ohio.

Ex-Governor Jnmes =. Campbell of
Ohio, in an interview recently. predicts
success for the democratic ticket at the
coming fall election to be held in Ohio.

democratic ticket will be successful this

asked.
~ believe that we will not only carry
onr state ticket through. but will have u
majority in the legislature and send a
democrat to the United States senate to
succeed Senator Hanna"

The senate is now known to be the
only obstacle to the absolute rule Of
Wall and Lombard streets oyer the
people Of the United STATES. In no
other department ofthe government
has there been stand made against
the imperial will of the wreckers of
human fortunes. A mighty effort
was made last fall and winter to Sc
cure a majority ofthe senate by any
means whatever, either fair or foul,
and if rumor can be relied upon the
enemy preferred foul to fair means,
and met with measure Of success
which surprised the nation.
Thirty new senator's will take
their seats in 1899. The battle will
commerce this year in Ohio and
Maryland. In both states it will be
fought on on national issues because
the most vital of all national issues
is INVOLVED. The control of the SEN
ate of the United States is the para
mount issue, because when the en-
emy have captured that, the coun-
try is PROSTATE and must suffer
whatever wrongs the conscience of
averice will tolerate.
Kentucky has set the paca. If
the election in Kentucky were this
fall the enemy would be buried.
Kentucky has had an object lesson
which has brought her to a realiz-
ing sense that there can be no COM
promise with the Clevelqnds, the
Carlisles or-other boodlerS of the
gold standard.
Let Ohio and Maryland take the
warning and fight, as the enemy
will, on national issues. Hanna will
appeal to the goldites and their
henchmen in the name Of Wall ard
Lombard streets and the good things
in store for the faithful worshipers
of the god of Mammon. II his OPP
ponent does not appeal to the peo-
pie in the name Of justice and hu-
manity, he is lost, and deserves to
be lost. In Maryland the republi-
cans will appeal to every miser,
money loaner, stock jphber, or,
the cringing debter in the name of
the gold standard and they will not
appeal in vain. No man who has
even apolagized for the gold stpnd-
ard will vote for members Of the
legislature to send true democrat
who stands on the national plat
form to the senate Of the United
States. Any appeal made to the
henchmen of the enemy by the lead
ers of the democracy will disgust
the true men Of the party and Of all
other parties who would join them
for relief, and they will stay at
home and allow plutocracy to be
victorious. Let the line be drawn
distinctly. Let it be known that
one side is for the people and the
other side for the gold standard, and

Why is a goldbug, who attempts
to kill trusts by legislation while
the gold standard is maintained,
like pirate stealing the last plank
from drowning victim! Because
by means of the gold standard all
enterprisipg men are engulfed in
business ruin and the goldite who
would sink them all by depriving
them of uniting their efforts and
building a trust raft to keep afioat
and avoid the abyss of bankruptcy,
delights in human misery for the
very lust of seeing others suffer.
Is the gold combination legal
lied monopoly or voluntary trust?
A legalixed monopoly, because gov
ernments have the monopoly of
creating money and punish private
interference with that monopoly as
a felony. The power to increase or
diminish the volume of money is a
sovereign power. The diminish the
volume is special privilege grant
ed to those who have money or
bonds payable in money, which are
money future because it enhaunces
the value of their property and di-
minishes the value Of all other prop
crty. To increase the volume of
money faster than the increase of
population and business so as to in.
fate prizes is a special privilege
granted to the producing classes at
large because it enhances property
generally faster than the value Of
money advances. To increase the
volume of money to correspond with
the increase ofpopulation and busi-
ness 50 as to maintain stability Of
prices is equal justice to all, and the
government which fails to do this
does not answer the legitimate pur-
poses for which government is
