LIT TdG PEOPLE RULE"
Appeal To Democrats


presches, Mr.. Bryan would not win
victory with tainted money paying
the election expenses.
Net dollar is to be accepted
which requires any promise, either
express or implied, other than for
HONEST, IMPARTIAL GOV
ERNMENT.
Mr.. Bryan will enter the White
House absolutely free from entangl-
ing alliances, free to serve all classes
Of honest citizens alike, or he will
not cutter it at all.
Hence the course isEplain. The
campaign of Bryan and Kern must
be conducted 10y the people
The people must pay the necessary
campaign expenses II they want
public servants who will serve their
interests.
Special interests and favored elias
ses, having secured "SWOLLnN
FORTUNES" BY purchasing fav-
ors in the past with MILLIONS
CONTRIBU TED TO CONTROL
ELECTIONS, stand ready to give
MILLIONS MORE FOR CON-
TINUED FAVORS. But that class
never gives dollar unless 1t buys
pledge.
Mr.. Bryansays, from March 4th,
1909, "LET G THE PEOPLE
RULE.n
This can come only llf the people
pay their own bills, and control
their own elections.
BEWARE OF THETRUSTS
BEARING GIFTS"
The policy of the favored few buy
ing mortage on the government
meant that the candidate for presi-
dent knew few people only IN an
entire state.
Bryan says, "We will take the
aase of PEOPLES RULE home
to the people in every county,
You can serve the grand cause Of
popular government through the
columns of your paper. 1t reaches
the fires'de Of the patriot who loves
his country for his ceuntry'sGOOD;
as distinguished from the greedy
posscssor of swollen fortunes who
loves his couatry only for his
country's GOODS.
Please carry this letter in bold tylc
at the masthead Of your paper, Ask
ing every one who favors Govern
ment BY the people to pay you, at
once, rs many dollars, las he can
spare to aid the campaign for
BRYAN, KERN, AND PEG
PIES RULE. You forward these
gifts of honest hearts and homes
every week to the treasurer Of the
Democratic National COMMITTEES,
with the name of esch contributor
and amounts given. The treasurer
will forward you a certificate like
the copy enclosed for each one, ask
ing you te deliver these ccrnflcatesc
GOnce more, you should be q. part
oftAe Great Organization bearing
the Lamp OF Light to every. nook
and corner of Free American.
Our Country isifof the people; its
Government must be by Inc people.
