The Ohio Democrat. (Logan, O. [Ohio]) 1886-1906, 1898-03-04
To President William Nc
KInley.

The New Time is an American
magazine. It's editors are Ameri-
cans. Ninety.nine per cent. of its
readers are American citizens, and
on behalf of them this magazine
commands President Mckinley to
give us an American policy.
President Mckinley, the money
which purchased your election was
contributed by European money
lenders aud Their Americans agents
but majority of the votes which
seated you were cast by honest
men who loved their country and
who yet love it. The time has come
when you must obey the voice of
the people. They are not interest
ed in the stock market. They own
no Spanish bonds. They are look
ing at their dead. They yearn to
resent an insult to them which was
hurled at you.
You promised to protect the hon
or of the American republic. You
have in your possession the damn
ing evidence Of Spanish atrocities,
fiendish beyond the power of words
TO express. You have consented TO
the murder of Cuban patriots; you
have not spoken when Cuban wo-
men were ravished. Your ears
have been deaf to the means of
100000 mem women and children
who have starved in Cuba that
Spanish bonds might be paid prin-
cipal and interest.
You have paid your election
de BITS. Your creditors ask too much
of you, as the chief representative
of the American people, when they
dem and that you ignore the mur.
der of $50 American sailors.
l am in receipt of IA private letter
from Washington newspaper
man stating that you and every
member of your cabinet are be-
sieged by hundreds of Wall street
gamblers and representatives of
"vested interests" Stocks are
tumbling down the scale. Why?
Because of fear that you are an
American President will dare
ignore the interests of the Jew
money lenders OF Europe. "Con-
fidence" is destroyed. What kind
of confidence Confidence that
the American people will longer
submit to the rule of the Roths-
childs and their chain of American
banks and newspapers.
Be man; be an American, ,Presi-
dent Mckinley. You cannot save
your party, but you can wipe out
the disgrace which has overwhelm-
ed your country. Show to theWhite
House door the Mogans, McCooks
and the other Wall street patriots
whose rotten securities are in dang
er and sound one note of genuine
Americanism. Repudiate the ours
who are slandering our manhood.
Forget who elected you, and re-
member your nativity.
1t is not necessary to 60 to war.
1t Is necessary to assert the dignity
and honor of the American Repub-
lie and to declare that the Cuban
massacre shall cease. If you will
take this step, President Mckinley
you will find that the money lend
ers of Europe will charge the Span.
lsh bonds up to profit and loss,
rather than endan ger vaster inter-
ests ia TN inter national contlict.
The money power has devastat-
ed Cuba. The money power blew
up the Maine and killed $50 Ameri-
can sailors. The money power de-
mands that this crime be ignored;
that the ravishment of Cuba be
continued until from the anguish
of the island there is extracted
enough gold to satisfy the shylocks
and pay their bonds, principle ana
inte rest.
The New Time is reform maya.
zine, but it wears mems clothes. La
order to reform nation it is first
necessary to retain possession Of it
during the educational process.
Unless the Mckinley administra-
ton can be made TO feel the pres.
sure of real American patriotism
the present crisis will pave the way
To foreign protectorate and the
loss Of our national Independence.
