THE WAR FOR INDEPENDENCE.

In recent letter TO the National
Bimetalic committee in regard to the
collection of n popular subscription to
support the cause of free coinage. our
noble standard bearer, VIM. j. Bryan,
says:
Since our fight is in the interest of
the "plain people"-to use LincOln's
phrase, or 'the common people, To
borrow Bible term-we must appeal
to them for the means of carrying on
the contest. The ilnanciers can con.
tribute large sums to support the gold
standard because the monopoly OF
money gives them great pecuniary
profit, Surely you can appeal with
confidence 10 the millions who suffer
from rising dollar and falling prices.
Having brought freedom to Cuba,
the American people can renew the
struggle for the financial Independence
Of the United STATES.
The fight for National bimetalsm is
truly peoples light and it is also
truly fight for the real financial indie
pendence, OF as great Importance as
the war for National political indie
pendence. The plain people" of the
United States, Notwithstanding our
boosted freedom, ar, enslaved to the
power Of gold. aud before we are truly
free we lnust break this power. The
people must win this fight and now is
the time to hold fast to the great prin-
pies OF hmetalism, and by our votes
and influence this coming election help
to destroy this financial octopus.

THE people OF Utah were carried of

to the country, even without free coin

bear the so.called evils of the pre- sent
system OF finances rather than fly to
others which they know not of.--Provo

THE NEXT CONGRESS,

Judging from the feelings Of the
Eastern Republican papers the chances
uf redeeming the next Congress and
making IL Democratic are very good.
The New York Commercial Advertiser
says:
The Republican majority in the pres;
ent House of Representatives, IL should
be remembered is only about 40, and
Republican apathy like that in Yer
mont aud Maine in about score of
Congressional districts out OF total
of 3j7, would give the next House of
Representatives TO the free silver party,
Such calamity can he averled by
hard and systematic Republican work
during the rest of the campaign, just as
10 was in 1896.
The New York Tribune, one of the
strongest OF Republican golbdug or
gans, Says
Is there any danger? We say frankly,
yes. Unless the supporters of the ad
ministratiOn throughout the country
bcstr themselves and work from this
time until the night of election day ms
they have not worked before in the last
ten years, there is grave danger that
their representatives viii not be In the
majority in the next Congress, and that
the Senate will! be contruled by a coai-
ton opposed TO The administration and
sound money. This is the plain truth.
aud H. may better be told nov than
when it Is TOO late. This is no time for
factional fights in the Republican
party; no time to indulge the passion
JEALOUSY; no time for side issues OF any
sort. The enemies OF the administra-
ton are going into the fight de-
termined to win.
The cry OF such journals as these &c
counts for the rabid efforts or the Salt
Lake Tribune and kindred sheets TO
elect goldbug Republican from Utah.
The chances are right now in favor OF
the next Congress being Democratic,
that is, for the people. Evidently
Eastern goldbugs have changed their
former opinion, that the "silver cause
IS dead" 1t is very much alive. and
even some of our Utah silver-plated
goIdbugs will find it out about the sec
ond Tuesday IN November.

The Enquirer in Thursdays issue

The Enquirer 10 Thursdays issue
says:
The Democrats have promised some
kind of an explanation of the reason
for the heavy increase in the indebt-
edness Of this county, which will no
doubt be interesting TO the public; but
the fact Still remains that the county
was run all the years of the Peoples
party administration, according To the
report OF 1898, and there was no indebt-
edness when the party went out of
power. The last report Published of
the financial condition shows that the
county has floating Indebtedness of
fifteen thousand dollars. Certainly
there must be something wrong, and II
II loo not the raise In the amount paid
out IN salaries, then what in the world
Is il?
We hope the Enquirer editor will
carefully read our statement and If
possible find the flaws which will be
necessary to give the Republicans a
ghost of n show IN opposition to the
Democratic administration of Utah
county.

charge OF increased Indebtedness, etc,
etc, under the Democratic administra-
tion of Utah county. All of the specific
charges were fully met in our issue Of
September 10Th, but that paper with
its customary lack Of either fairness or
honesty has utterly failed to notice our
answer, but has continued to assail
Democratic candidates by innuendo
and insinuation without again making
any specific or reasonable charges. or
explanations Of alleged charges. Until
an item appeared In the last issue of
the Springvllle Independent, we bad
no idea that any reasonable man or
woman in Utah county was payirg any
