WATSON ATIOsCEOLA

Eight years ago Watson delivered
as great an Grafton in Lincoln as was
ever heard in this city of universities
Men who heard it are today talking
about it and many of them, although
eight years have passed. can repeat
portions of it. Can that be truthfully
said of any other address ever deliv-
cred in this city? The prominent re-
publicans of the state who heard it
were astonished. When questioned
about it they replied: 1T was great
speech, but it was not political
speech. 1t was simply a patriotic ora
ton which we all endorse" That was
all they could say, for the speech was
so overwhelming in It's logic, SO per-
feet in its delivery, so beautiful In its
rhetoric, that it captured every nearer.
So admirable was its art, 1t swayed
alike the university professor, the
learned judge, the lawyer and the hum
blest among our citizens. Only yes
terday. a member of the hod carriers
union of Lincoln came into the edi-
torial room of The Independent to say
that he was glad that Watson was
coming again for he mad heard him
when he was here before and wanted
to hear him again. This hard work
ing man had cherished in his heart all
these years Watson's words. The In
dependent can not reprint that speech
as IL would be glad to do. for It's files
were burned, when the Office went up
In flames. The following are the clos
ing words of Watson's speech at Os-
ceola the same year which we clip
from the Polk County Democrat:
I'VE are not lighting for silver only
That Is good as far as II goes but II
don't 80 far enough. We have got to
reform the tax system and the trans
por,atIon system and We have got 10
wipe out the national banks. and we
have got to create more money for tbs

was burned up. until populism re-

"IRREyOCABLE."

Judge Parker wound ali the strands
Of fate together and then declared the
gold standard 'irrevocable.' Even
God himself must not meddle with
it. The sage of Esopus mas said 1t
and even Omnipotence can't chance
it. The greatest statesmen of the past
never tried to decide things for all
future ages in that dogmatic way.
While the men who wrote the con-
stitution believed that they were stat
ing some fundamental and eternal
truths, they provided way III which
that instrument could be changed or
amended. All eternity is but an hour
with Judge Parker. The gold stand
ard is "irrevocable!" All the gold
mines may become exhausted. or gold
may be discovered in inexhaustible
quantities and become or less value
than pewter, but the gold standard will
remain. Nations may rise and fall,
all our notions of government, indus
trial and commercial affairs, may be
altered as the endless years roll by,
but the gold standard Is "irrevocable. .
Judge Parker has said ii and to that
dictum every true democrat must bow.
Amen. Let us fuse

STAND UP AND BE COUNTED.

In the correspondence printed in
The Independent last week signed
u" the following sentence occurs:
Bryan is the idol of the common peo-
pie and the man to whom they are
looking to free them from the domino
ton of the money power" But Bryan
says he will vote for and support Par
ker. II his followers follow his ex-
ample there will be recorded as in
favor of the the money power all the
votes cast for both the republican and
democratic candidates. There will be
no protest filed aga:ns, II save what
votes the populists cast. Would it not
be wisdom to cast as many votes as
possible for the popu1ist ticket? No
man will get federal Office except
those who support the money power.
All the prestige of power and wealth
will be in its favor. Bryans vote and
that OF every other democrat, who
supports the Parker ticket will be
counted for the money power They
propose to stand up and be counted
on that side. What a man says be-
tween elections don't count. 1t is his
vote that counts. Shall it he pub
lished to all the world that an over
whelming majority of the people of
the United States voted for plutoc-
racy and the money power? You
will be counted among them if you
vote for any man who supports Par
ker or Roosevelt. Will you do it?

pLUTOCRATIo ROTTENNEss.

New York is plutocracy-s sink hole
of rottenness. From there comes the
two candidates of oppression, whom
insane partisans all over the county
shout for and proclaim to the world
as the friends of the people. How are
the people in New York treated where
there is no opposition to the gold
standard? A recent report on the con-
dition of the common people there is
as follows:
Tenement conditions in many in
stances have been found to be SO bad
as to be Undesirable in print; vile
privies and privy sinks; foul cellars
full of rubbish, in many cases \of
garbage and decomposlng focal mat
ter; dilapidated and dangerous stairs;
plumbing pipes containing large holes
emitting sewer gas throughout the
houses; rooms so dark that one can
not see the people in them: cellars
occupied as sleeping places; dangerous
bakeries without proper protection in
case OF fire; pigs, goats. horses and
other animals kept In cellars; old fire.
traps without fire-escapes; disease
breeding rags and junk stored In tene-
ment-houses; halls kept dark at night,
endangering the lives of the occu-
pants; buildings without adequate watt
or supply-the list might be added to
almost indefinitely"
Come now and let us fuse so that
in the great summing up. our votes
shall be counted among those who sup
port plutocracy.
