| Hanna as the Blue. falling on the neck
of the Gray and weeping profuse tears
OF Joy that those who were once rebels
and traitors" are now periodically Ia
o. or of cutting as many foreign
tbroats IS will be necessary to enable
the plutocracy 70 grab another half a
Billion OF bonds In addition to those
thsy secured in the infamous times
wien Messrs. Carlyle ana Cleveland
were inviting the Rothschilds to
finance" the American treasury.
This is now the situation. The plu-
tocrats think that by using the oppor-
tunities given them by the Spanish
war, they will not only get all the
bonds they want, but will get control
Of half dozen states to support them
in their plan of making notes Of private
corporations the currency Of the coup-
try, instead of coin and greenbacks.
The refusal of the administration to
recognize the Cuban republic Is I'M
doubtedIy an incident Of London finan-
ciering as 1t affects our politics. From
the beginning 1t has been the set pur-
pose of the international syndicate OF
disciples of John Law to force bond
deal, with war or without it. They
do not care particularly for blood II
they can get bonds without it, but
bonds they will have though blood
flows ito their bride reins." They
keep South America in continual tur-
MOL pulling down one government and
setting up another. Their methods
were we'll illustrated by the orders sent
from New York for revolution in Mica
ragua when the Walker government
offended one of their New York allies
They intend now to make Cuba the
basis of bond DEAL and If 1t Is neces-
sary in doing this to put down Gomez
and annex the islands, they will pick
a quarrel with him and use the United
States army against him IL possible.
Having got their bonds, they will go
on with their plans for using them to
hold 10000, 900 Americans in subjec-
ton they cannot escape while foreign
bondbrokers can organize local corpo-
| rations and issue American currency.
The double purpose of the foreign
| plutocracy and its Wall street agents
in the Cuban war is to secure more
bonds in the first place, and, In the
second, to use the war to so change
issues at home that these bonds can
be made available as a means of sub
shutting corporation notes for cur
rency issued by government, whether
gold, silver or paper.
While we are throwing up our hats
and hurrahing for naval victories over
Spain, Lord Rothschild (who never
throws up his hat, and seldom hurrahs
over his victories) is calculating how
many hundred millions he and his as
sociates can take from our earnings
every year, under system of corpora
ton currency issued in America by the
agents of the men in London who con-
troll the bonds on which it is based.
To carry out this plan of campaign,
he will use every banker who can be
bought with the promise Of share
of the plumber, every merchant who
can be coerced by the threats Of bank
ers to cut off his credit and ruin him,
every politician who can be intimi-
dated, cajoled or bribed They have be-
gun operations in the South. They are
working not less diligently in Mis-
souri,. Through the Pacific railroads,
the mill trust and the elevator cOmbi-
nation, they will endeavor to check the
| progress of Democracy in the North
west and to change tho issues. And
all of it will mean more bonds and
more of Lord Rothschild's notes en-
dorsed by the United States, and
loaned out by him at interest on our
national credit as If they were cash
and actually his own money.
So long as we have a corporation
| currency of any kind, it will be con-
trolled from London and Berlin.
When Lord Rothschild gets control
Of 100000, 900 in our bonds, he can hire
| 10000 American clerks and organize a
thousand American National" banks,
| from He'll Gate on the one side to the
| Golden Gate on the other. Having
done so, he can present his ten mil
| lion in bonds at the treasury window,
and receive a present of nine million
| in notes which will circulate on the
credit of the government after he has
signed them and given them to his
resident clerks to lend out on mort
gage.
Naturally enough, Lord Rothschild,
under this arrangement, finds it easy
to, believe that Americans who favor
currency of coin and treasury notes
exclusively are cranks, regulators
and anarchists. Naturally enough, he
win make the best of the opportunity
the Spanish war gives him, to perpet-
uate himself and his allied money
lords as the supreme power in America
But they will not succeed. They can
never subjugate America, and if they
