the money with gold or anything. the
Democrats will be satisfied. They want
enough money. There is II money pow
er within 800 yards of the Bank of Eng
land that can sway the governments
OF the world. The money power is not
against gold or silver. II simply wishes
TO have one of them only. because one
morse is easier to drive than are two.
The money power is against too much
of it,
TRUST IN POLITICS.
| The trust in politics is where the
politicians keep the people out of the
offices III the Republicans here could
not stand in With Hanna. the political
trust, they could not get I'M Hanna is
the beautiful flower OF the trust. When
| Mn Huntington gave Il million TO the
campaign fund he expected to defeat
| the Ncarasuan Canal bill. The poiiti-
cal trust is 10 keep the people from
having anything to do but vote.
| few men who run the government
make Il trust government. The modern
form is Mckinley He is the head of
one because he is a mainly PANTY
man. who can be pushed forward to do
| wrong.
How are the Filipinos ruled? Are

| have no constitutional form of govern
ment. lie spoke of the rights which
are secured by the constitution. but
which are not allowed to the Filipinos
They have no rights of trial by jury
no free press or free speech.
SAVE THE ADMINISTRATIONS.
We do not hear now of saving the
country, but of saving the Administers
ton. Hanna's dispatch to Mckinley
was: Thank God the Republican
| party is saved and am elected y
| bad man always uses good words.
Ii we We're right in saving Cuba, we
are wrong in conquering the Philip
| pine Islands. Can we have n flag here
FOR freeman and Il flag there for
slaves?
1T DOESN'T PAY.
They say it is u paying business. 1t
cost 100000 day. Is that paying
business except for Brother Abncrs
lumber company? There is no nation
that brings an army away after it
takes the country. 1t always requires
an army to look after the people. For
every American that goes to the Phil
ippines there will be 100 brown mon
that will come here to compete With
our worllingmen.
There never was n people that can
grow UP beside the English speaking
people. There is no fear of that. They
| are lnt NOillllsttll race. IntN Will COU-
duer if it requires blood and iron to
DO it.
THE BOER WAR.
Now. there is n great nation of peo-
! pie furnishing n little nation in Africa.
| We can't say anything about that be
| cause we are doing the same thing our
selves.
Vigilance is the secret for safety of
| business, of society of government. 1t
is not only the price of liberty; it is the
price of everything.
! What are we doing in Cuba? They
sent IL Rathbone and then IL Nicely 10
watch him. They started with small
salaries and increased them at the eX-
pense of the Cubans. Mr. Mckinley
| fixed how much the Cubans should pay.
The speaker gave n humorous ac-
| count OF the career of Rathbone-his
expenses for gloves, dogs and palaces
| in Cuba. He denounced the system
under which this could be done. Then
he spoke of Porto Rico. He referred
to General Miles as the janitor of a
great man. We know Miles down here.
| (Great applause.)
A STANDING ARMY.
1t is bad enough to have n standing
| army here, but infinitely worse to have
one way out in the Philippine Islands.
| When the day of volunteer ends the
day of CONSUMPTION begins. We cannot
submit to that and preserve our liberty
| at home. We should pull down the
flag thousand times rather than have
| it stand in dishonor. 1t ought not to
be Il commercial asset.
THE CANDIDATES..
Then he referred to the candidates
| We must do something. We cannot
| depend only on talking patriotism: we
must elect them. There is not mucl,
in hero warship, but there is some
thing different in this Western man.
| He is the only man who has loved the
| people since Jackson. Bryan is Il clean.
unpretcntious man; noble in soul and
pure of heart. Hanna says Croker has
got Bryan. Croker can't hold Bryan.
a former member. n Republican, who
sat by him in Congress, says he never
knew a better or Il purer man.
The tribute to Bryan was eloquent
and beautiful. 1t elected great APP
