BRYAN's GREENBAcK IDEA.
It LIS Similar the National Debt
Paying Scheme Away Rack
in ISGS-

The Bryan financial.schem is appar-
emily the grand old idea that carried
the democracy of-Ohio off their feet in
1868. and that was simply TO print
enough greenb backs to pay of The ma
tional debt and have done with it.
This beautiful thought had ma jority
in the convention that nominated Sey-
meur and Blair. The actual conyersa-
ton referred to was this:
Energetic Greenbacker opened the
talk by saying: Hello, you. here; don't
you think you want some more money?
Don't you think we al ought to have
some more money!"
Second Citizen speaking mildly
Well, yes, 1 think I'd like to have some
more money. and
Energetic Citizen and Leading DEM
ocrat-WeIl, then. why don't you help
US have it2 What are you standing
around for? Why don't you come and
go with us? You want more money,
and 1 want more money. If we all say
so we can have it, can't we? Amt the
people going to rule this country any
more? If we say print the money
they'll print it, won't they? You be-
long right with us.
Second Citizen-But how about re-
deeming it? How about paying it up?
Stalward Democrat (again)- Redeem
it, What the devil do you want to re-
deem it for? Let it wear out, and print
more of it,
Now, that was the grand cd way of
paying tie national debt in So 1t
doesn't look unlikely that Mr.. Bryan
will have to make that the paramount
issue in this campaign after all, for
there will be wiidfire in the woods
about the protectorate in the Philip
pines and the Monroe doctrine in Asia.
