No cry has come up from the

passage Of this bill. mol but, true
to their past record the republican
party ignores the people, meekly
surrenders, and obeys the orders
OF the money power.
Hon. James A. Norton of Ohio.
speaking on the finance bill said:
"With its passage the national
banks be the government, and
the adj lstration of government
in all its policies will be at the
dictation of the national ban:s.
Through its operations there will
he formed the mightiest trust that
has ever existed since the world
began. God pity the people VIXEN
it shall become law" Turning
to the republicans he said: "You

not have policy of finance TX.

by the same hand and influence
that directs the financial policy of
Great Britain. Never was there A

subservient, and so thoro rchlv
willing to obey and to respond to
the whip and lash of the stock ioh-

"This bill is brought before this

in order that the administration
may obey the order of the money
power, in whose hands and under
whose control it placed itself in

One great trouble with the dem

never have the courage of their

tain a parity is by swapping dol

gress knows better, but he ,s
afraid to antagonize the money
power. 1t was the 1000, 900 popu-

Gratis to nominate Bryan and adopt
