WEDNESDAY ..... SEPT. 7. 1888


OF the letter represents one single
cold thnupht. Wht eve you find a
Democrat of the Il ue type. south OF
the Mason nnd Dixon ine or III the
West, OF find a firm supporter OF
the Tree and unlimited coinage of
silver and Il strong advocate Of the
adoption and coinage Df that metal
on an equality with gold.
This being an acknowledged and
u~ndisputed fact, then why uot every
voter of all silver producing states
unite into one common body, with
the solid South regardless Of past po-
Gtical affiliations and support the on
ly party through which and by which
silver can he made a money equal
with golI and all other stamps of
money.
Silver must be made a standard
item Of money second to 10 other on
earth before the South. West and ell
yer producing states can prosper
equally with the Northern stales of
this great Union.
This ueing the situation what can
be lone to bring the one desired OBJ
ject Of IL success and prosperity H.
to effect.
There is but one road and one way,
and that il the Democratic road that
leads 10 Washington, the Hub Of our
Government. That road leads from
every nook, hole aud corner Of our
grand, commanding and ruling MI
ton. and 10y using that road for the
free and unlimited coinage of silver,
there il 10 doubt to the mind OF a
true blue Democrat, but that the
President and Congress Of 19C1 will
give Us the money we have worked
and prayed for, by a plank in the plat
form of the great. national Demo-
cratic party continuously for the last
twenty years.
The Democratic party was the first
pronounced friend to silver money in
the United States. 1t is the only
friend silver has ever had, has today,
or can have for the next twenty years
to come, that can possibly have force
enough to do the of. silver any
good. ''>'
The Silver party certainly means
we'll enough, but it has now had six
years working at the front on the sill.
vel cause from this state, and today
we are sorry to say that silver, as a
money. is in a worse condition than
it has ever been in the history Of our
country.
OF course l am Il Democrat, and
every vote | eve cast has ueen sup
porting that ticket. 1 feel and have
felt at all times, that in voting the
Democratic ticket, I have been q
firmer and stronger. supporter Of the
silver cause than I would have been
had l voted my other ticket.
1t ia silver as a standard money and
not political fancy we want in Ne
vada. and why not all of us work tLr
it through the strongest power, which
we all know TO be the Democratic
party.
1t ia silver that Senator Stewart
and Congressman Nswlands are for
first, last and all the time, and why
not send them. or do good men in the
cause, back'to Washington ROBBED In a
Democratic harness, one with which
they. can pull something.
Or course, ordinarily, such a po-
aition accepted by Mr.. Stewart and
Mr.. Newlands having heretofore afal.
lated with other political parties
would be considered "a sacrifice OF
political dignity but in the present
case it would not be 10 f;om the fact
that the State OF Nevada has but one
