iginal up-to date. rattling campaign
poems and satires by Hon. MAI
Ward Fitz Gerald, Poet of the AL
leghanies, in which Mckinley Ted
Idy, Mark Hanna, trusts and the
money power are Shit OFF, in such 8
fascinating, easV, catchy style. every
body who sees the booklet or hears
a quotation from a single one of its
up to.date lines, wants it at once.
Even women and young people
show their appreciation for it and
want the booklet to read to their
friends of the Republican faith. The
poems portray in telling manner
the horrors and wrongs OF McKin-
ley's and Hanna's administrator. II
is so striking that even Republicans
are made to laugh instead of getting
angry at its telling hits. 1t has al
ready converted a number of them
to the Bryan faith.
Every lover of liberty should help
to win the battle of the people this
year againstimperialism, militarism,
trusts and the money power.
We will win the fight if every vo-
ter will do his whole duty.
When a Republican talks to you
about Mckinley and his party, you
want a copy of "McKinley Trusts
Mark Hanna" at that moment to
hand to him; tell him to take it
home and read and ponder it.
If he commences to read it he
can't quit it-he will be like the
man with the steam leg, that couldn't
stop.
One Republican was seen to take
up the booklet of poems-glance at
the title, and was at first going to
lay it down, but he turned to the
last page and read the last verse on
the page, then he read the next one
above it, and so continued until he
had read the entire booklet through
backwards-he found each verse he
read (Which he each time thought
was surely the last one he would
ready so good that he was led on to
the next one above it, and so on, un-
til he finished reading the book
through.
He then inquired where he could
get few copies. saying that 1t had
settled McKinley's hash for him, and
he wonld vote for Bryan.
The booklet is furnished at cost
of printing, wrapping and postage.
The author hopes to have 1t in the
hands of million or more voters
before election day and he would
distribute it free, without money
and without price, as the gospel of
liberty, had he the means to do so,
but having lately lost everything he
possessed, by fire, he is unable to
print and distribute it free.
1t is gotten up in suitable shape.
