men and silver forcesi
A. Because they are Cleveland
ties. Because they love gold an,
monopoly, and love attorney fee
more than the interests Of the peo
pie. Because they fear the rule o
the people more than they fear negr,
domination.

only way under high heaven /
which the silver forces can ever {

the one hundred thousand honest q

the machinery Of their party in l9O
and the silver voters Who support'
Bryan in 1896 will j,in hands 81
carry the State by over twenty tho
