the Methodist church down there. He
had not much experience, you see; and a
schmart lawyer from the village was up
before me to defend them. That man
really was fine pleader; and as he knew
the Bible kyotations well, he made good
impression on the court. He said that

Prosperity

The one supreme test of prosperity is
the money in the bank. This is n self
evident truth. If mans family is well
clothed and fed and in comfortable
home, and besides this he can put money
in the bank, it must be admitted that he
is prosperous.
In the following unparalleled showing
Of the increase in the number OF deposits
from the dark days of the Democratic
Wilson bill regime in 1894 to the glorious
days of Mckinley prosperity, the most
marvellous of all is the increase in the
number of depositors and in the amount
of deposits in the savings banks of the
country. These banks are particularly
the ones where the wage earners of the
country put their savings.
Mr.. Bryan says the people are not pros
porous. So say all his calamity follow
ers. We commend to them the following
official figures from the report of the
Comptroller of the Currency of the Unit

Tariff for Rexenue.

We hold that the tariff duties should he
levied for purposes of revenue, such du-
ties to be so adjusted as to operate equal
ly throughout the country and not dis
criminate between class or section, and
that taxation should be limited by the
needs of the government honestly and
economically administered We de-
nounce, as disturbing to business, the. Re-
publican threat to restore the Mckinley
law, which has been twice condemned by
the people in national elections. and
which, enacted under the false plea Of
protection to home industry, proved n
prolific breeder of trusts and monopolies,
enriched the few at the expense Of many,
restricted trade and deprived the pro-
ducers Of the great American staples of
access to their natural markets. Until
the money question is settled we are op-
posed to any agitation for further
changes in our tariff laws, except such
as are necessary to make the deficit in
revenue caused by the adverse decision
OF the Supreme Court on the income tax.

There would be no deficit in the reve-

State Rights.

During all these years the Democratic
party has resisted the tendency of selfish
interests to the Capitalization Of govern
mental power, and steadfastly maintain
ed the integrity Of the dual scheme of
government established by the founders
of this republic or republics. Under its
guidance and teachings the great princi-
pie of local self-government has found
its best expression in the maintenance
of the rights of the States and in its as
scrtion of the necessity of continuing the

And now let me ask what has w. ].

country? CA voice: Nothing" An

dollar to hear him talk.") Not a thing
Came near saying damn. Not thing.
His career in public life is available to
every man. His short service was mark
ed and made conspicuous by his opposi-
tion to the tariff bill. And what has he
done since to show any particular inter
est in the working people Of this country?
He tells them what he would do. He is
prolific in promises, rosy in painting the
picture MS to what would be the result of
his administration, but l charge you,

and look upon the other; and the other is

Most Important Issues.

Now, bringing these issues home to each

them there because l expect and l know
that every man who goes to the polls on
election day having heard the arguments
in the case, having considered how the de-
cision of these issues will bear upon his
personal interests and those of his family,
will cast that ballot intelligently in his
own interest and not in Mr.. Bryan's. But
there is a further responsibility which
comes to every man and to every woman
who can influence a man.

Bond Issues.

We are opposed to the issuing Of inter-
est-bearing bonds of the United States
in time of peace, and condemn the traf-
fickng with banking syndicates which,
in exchange for bonds and at ain enor-
nous profit to themselves, supply the
Federal treasury with gold to maintain
the policy of gold monometallism.
Congress alone has the power to coin
and issue money, and President Jackson
declared that this power could not be del
egated to corporations or individuals. We
therefore demand that the power to issue
notes to circulate as money be taken from
the national banks. and that all paper
money shall be issued directly by the
Treasury Department, be redeemable in
coin, and receivable for all debts, public
and private.
The sun., 1900-10-09
The Money Question.

Recognizing that the money system is
paramount to all others at this time, we
invite attention to the fact that the
Federal Constitution names silver and
gold together as the money metals Of the
United States, and that the first coinage
law passed by Congress under the Con
stitution made the silver dollar the mon
etary unit, and admitted gold to free
coinage at ratio based upon the silver
dollar unit.
We declare that the act of 1878 demon
etizing silver without the knowledge or
approval of the American people has re-
suited in the appreciation of gold and
corresponding fall in the prices Of com
modities produced by the people; heavy
increase in the burden of taxation and of
all debts, public and private; the enrich
ment IF the money lending classes at
home and abroad; prostration of indus
try and impoverishment Of the people.
We are unalterably opposed to gold
monometallism, which has locked fast
the prosperity of an industrial people in
the paralysis of hard times. Gold mono
metallism is a British policy, and its
adoption has brought other nations into
financial servitude to London. 1t is not
only un-American but anti-American.
and it can be fastened on the United
States only by the sitting Of that spirit
and love Of liberty which proclaimed our
independence in 17TG and won it in the
war of the Revolution.

Where Interests Are.

There is no question where your inter
est is, because every year, every month,
and every day of the administration of
William Mckinley has been an object les
son. Every man who has an insurance
on his life for the benefit of his family
every man who has his deposits in saw
ings bank or n loan association where he
has gathered together perhaps the saw
ings of a lifetime, where he believes il is
safe, and it is, although that money that
he deposits in Il savings bank is not there,
for they don't keep the money in their
vaults. What do they do with it? They
invest it in securities, in bonds and mort
cages, satisfying themselves that the
property behind those securities is per-
fectly good for the loan made-and it is
under all normal conditions. But sup

Free Silver.

We demand the free and unlimited
coinage of both gold and silver at the
present legal ratio of 16 to 1, without
waiting for the aid or consent Of any
other nation. We demand that the
standard silver dollar shall be full legal
tender, equally with gold, for all debts,
public and private, and we favor such
legislation as will prevent for the future
the demonetization of any kind of legal
tender money by private contract.
We are opposed to the policy and prac-
tice of surrendering to the holders of
the obligations of the United States the
option reserved by law to the government
of redeeming such obligations in either
silver coin or gold coin.
