Discrepancy In Computing the Date

kept upon the Sunday first after the

arrived at as to the cycle by which
the festival was to be regulated, and
some churches adopted one rule and

freeman's rights and fight for them.
And now, Democrats, let me ask
you question: If Republican pres
ident can win popularity by spasmod-
ically and sporadically doing some
thing Democratic, what would be the
popularity of a Democratic president
who was consistently and persistently
Democratic an all questions? Isn't
this a bad time for a Democrat to be-
come discouraged? Never since [
have known politics have we had so
much to encourage us.
In this state you have by organiza-
ton among the farmers, been able TO
protect yourselves to some extent
from the greed of one great monop-
oily, but instead of feeling satisfied at
the great success that has come to
your organization, bid you have some
feeling for those whoeare not so sit
uated that they can protect them
selves as you have been able to pro-
tect yourselves. Have you not learned
something of what monopoly is, and
are you not ready now to join with us
to lay the AK at the root of the tree,
and instead of saying as Secretary
Taft said, that there are good trusts
and bad trusts, are you not ready 10
say with us that God never made
man good enough to stand at the head
of a private monopoly and control the
price of what people had to use?"
Is 1t not time that we seriously
take up this question and put the
American government back upon its
old foundation, and make it again a
government of the people, by the peo-
pie and for the people? Are you not
ready to enlist in this contest? | have
been fighting for this principle now
seventeen years, and l ask for nothing
better than ]. might continue this fight
until God calls me from my earthly
labors Are you willing to enlist, not
for three months, or six months or a
year-are you willing to enlist for
this war until justice shall triumph
and our nation shall be relieved?
While next year the fight will be on
a larger field and the stakes will be
greater, now in this fight you are on
the skirmish line, and if you will but
give us a splendid victory for Hager
and his associates, we shall rejoice
with you; and if you will give us a
legislature that elects Beckham, our
rejoicing will be doubly great; and l
hope that when the polls are closed
and the vote is counted you will have
such a victory in Kentucky that We
can hear your shouts all the way TO
Nebraska, and then when we hear
them we will be so glad that we will
shout so loud that you can hear them
In Kentucky.
