The Gold Movement.

1t is announced that the shipment of
gold from London has commenced or IS
about to commence and the wiseacres in
the gold movement predict thai as much
as fifty millions Of gold may come to this
country from abroad by the present move
lnent. The Jew gold bankers on both
sides of the ocean appear to be the ship
pers and receivers.
These gold bankers can, at their pleas
IRE, order the movement either way to
promote any secret object they may have
in view At present their main object is
to fasten the gold standard more firmly
OIL this country by act of the congress
which is soon to meet. TO facilitate this,
the "prosperity'' must not be allowed to
flag. If a sufficient supply of money can
be maintained in the channels of trade
that will insure the activity of business,
large dividends from railroads and brisk
trade in all the large lines carried on by
the industrial trusts, will keep up the
price of their stocks.
These indications of continued pros
perity will, it is hoped, serve to strengthen
the Republican party with the public,
which the party spell-binders, when they
take the stump, will make the most of
The shippers of gold from the other side
need not part with their gold unless they
choose to do so, as they own, by the best
estimates comeatable, some five billions of
U. S. securities of various kinds which
they can at any time place on the market
and sell to meet any demands from this
side which may be made for the balance
of trade i'll our favor. If prices are kept
up and business maintained at its present
condition, these securities which are held
in Europe will pay the gold bankers who
hold them sufficiently well to part with
their gold temporarily for the double
purpose they have in view of pushing
through the next session of congress the
gold standard strengthening act they are
work. ing night and day to accomplish,
and keep the prosperity boom in exist
ence long enough to aid materially the
Republican party in its campaign of 1890.
A study of these apparently mysterious
gold shipments which puzzle the gold
newspapers to account for, will almost if
not always be found to have either the
assistance of the political fortunes of the
Republican party in view, or game Of
bluff to depress or boom the stock market.
The gold movements back and forth are
generally political or speculative, seldom
caused by the natural laws of trade, but
by artificial causes, produced by the gold
trust at pleasure.
These gold conspirators have got pos
session of the Republican party, have
packed the U. S. Senate with their at
torneys, have bought up and control in
the interest of their conspiracy almost all
of the daily papers, magazines and relig-
ous and agricultural weeklies, and have
succeeded i'll misleading and darkening
public thought on financial matters 10 an
alarming extent. This same international
money trust was the chief iustigator of
the Philippine Islands horrible blunder.

of millions oftreasure and the death or
physical wreck of thousands of its best
young manhood. Not one cent of profit
can the Islands ever be to the masses of
this country, but only to the syIdicates
of the gold trust of this country and Great
Britain, even if the crime be placed OH
the low plane of dollars.
To keep up the momentum in business
