An Alliance With MONOPOLY.

Wnen 1t was heralded across the
country that Senator Hanna would IN

sage: Dear Mark, do not stand in
the way, you know am all right.
And Mark, giving expression to the
1eeilng OF his heart answered back
with the same rapidity and by the
same course, the following telegram.
yea, Lord, thy will be DONE" These
men Will not come in conflict with ono
another. Why is it that the railroaa
telegraph, and express companies have
n.ore !nnuence in the halls of legisla-
tlon than the farmer? The answer is
readily had, they have more influence

permit your great party to become

one great party stands before you to-
day and it prides itself Oh what 1t did
for the gold standard, contending that
every agency of nature and all the
prosperity we have today emanated
from it and its legislation.

elevation of our people. Was this in
reality, the work of the Republican
party?
Be true to yourselves, your homes
and your families and when men ask
you to stand pat" and say that last
years republican platform was a
democratic harangue, and ask you to-
day to still keep in power this party.
be candid enough to ask them why thew
are standing pat, and what does
standing pat" mean, and why "shel-
ter to monopoly" should be erased
from the platform, if the meaning of
the present one is the same as the
platform of 1902? And ask them why
they are not in favor of legislation
opposing discrimination in freight
rates and why they believe that high.
protective tariff is beneficial to the
producers of our country? And if
they point to the gold standard, then
ask them what is the meaning of asset
currency and the Aldrich bill. and in
whose interest is its passage being
demanded.
They say to.you that the money
question is settled. and wish to keep
from your mind all reference to it. It
may and it may not be settled, depend

The Standard Oil company had its

They discuss candidates for the presi.

point of view, their own interest. Why
is it possible the people of the state
OF Iowa do not look at this question

The tariff is the basis of all trusts.
There can be and is no serious ques-

is and has been that our people have
