THE Organized Wealth of the land
realizing the danger impending over
1t In 1900. and fearing the result of a
contest In that year on the lines as laid
down In 1896. is seeking to save itself
by divertlng the attention of the peo-
pie from the real issue. and by eecur-
ing departure by the Democracy from
the lines laid down in 1896 and to that
END you have men calling themselves
democrats, going about to-day, declar-
ing Tor O platform broad enough for all
Democrats to stand upon, and you have
men calling themselves Democrats, de-
claring that we should omit the plank
favoring independent bimetallism at 18
TO i. in the platform of 1900; and you
find the political boss of New York city
undertaking to dictate to the same end.
the platform of 1900. and Offering to
support the Democratic party II 1t will
surrender the Democracy, and offerinS
to support Mr.. Bryan il he will. only
give up that for which he commended in
1896.
NO ALLIANCES.
I'm my judgment the Democracy of
this nation should enter into no al
lance with those in control OF the Dem
ocratic organization in New York city.
You can get the aid OF those people by
purchase, and by purchase only, and
the consideration that you would have
TO pay would be, In the event of sue
cess at the polls, to carry on an admins
istration hostile to all for which you
contende1 in 1886, and hostile to all
Tor which you expect TO contend In 1900.
In my judgment 1t would be better To
so To defeat in 1900 without an alliance
with those in control of the Democratic
al In y.,,si-
10 victory with such an alliance. New
York may not be the enemy's country.
but IL Is Il country In possession OF tho
ehrniy. The loyal ard honest Demo-
Gratis of New York State and New York
city. who are in sympathy with the
Democracy OF the nation, and who are
moi In sympathy with the organization
III New York. are now justified in q
political revolution, and they ought to
declare their independence Of that state
organization, form one OF their own,
aud send their accredited delegates To
III" Democratic National Convention of
1900.
THE WORDS OF LINCOLN.
Th"sc who cali themselves Repuhli-
cans to-dny ought TO take well to heart
the words Of Abraham Lincoln: L sec

Contrast Lincoln with Mckinley. Re-
member the lives that were lost, the
blood that was shed. and property that
was destroyed. to bring freedom to
blacks. Then remember that more OF
the helpless. harmless Flipnos have
been shot to death by this administra-
ton In few months time than were
killed by the Spaniards in three hun
dred years. and then imagine what
Abraham Lincoln would have done had
These PHILIPPINES have never harmed
this country; they have never harmed
or attempted to harm single citizen of
this government: and in the face of
that there can be no reason and no eX-
cuse in the heart or mind of any hon
est man for their murder. The PROPOSE
ton that this government has bought
them at two dollars 4 head, does not
justify their killing. We do not critlcise
nor co we denounce the soldiers: their
duty is to obey orders and they are not
responsible. We honor their heroic
deeds and mourn their courageous
dead. Those who are responsible are
IN no position of danger nor Will they

can travel fast enough to catch up

OUR LEADERS.
II know that 1t was declared by those
who opposed us In 1896 that the gold
standard advocates own all the intel
ligence and all the knowledge of the
country, and that we were too ignorant
and too stupid to understand that which
was best for our welfare. and that we
ought to leave these matters to the
gold standard people. whose only de-
sire Oh earth was to benefit somebody
else a. their own expense But IL
seems to us, in our feeble. anarchistic
way OF thinking. that if there is any
thing in this government too big for
the average lawyer or doctor or farmer
or Iaborer. or merchant or manufac-
turer to understand that thing Is too
big for this government. and ought to
be out of it, II our gold standard
brethren have monocolzed all the in
telligence and knowledge. as well as
the money. they ought not to abuse us.
but ought to look upon us with SYM
