"Hocus Pocus Money" and "Frenzied
Finance"
In Mr. Bryan'S book called The
First Battle he compared the possible
effects of the British gold standard
to the ruin wrought by an invading
army. sweeping the land with fire
and sword. Mr.. Bryan was right The
vast increase in the worlds stock of
metallic money, and the enormous use
of credit money, which universal con-
fidence keeps afloat, postponed the
evil day. but it is bound to come. Let
the supply of gold fail, let confidence
/ take wings, let the insOlvent banks
be suddenly called upon to make good
their inflated liabilities. and such a
storm will break over the republic
as has not been known in it's history.
Our financial system is rotten 70 the
very core What has been aptiy called
"Hocus-Pocus money is dong the
4. biggest business it was ever known to
4 do. What is entitled 'Frenzied FL
nance. is holding such carnival as it
4 never held before This can not last.
!. The crash will surely come; and those
4 who live to see it will feel as though
the world were coming to an end.
i Would to God that Mr. Bryan were
4 with me in this The Second Battle.
Together we could have won the fight
in 1896 but the southern democratic
4 bosses would not have it so.

allies apart by brutal insults at the
very opening of the campaign. In
