It is but one of tho earnest efforts and operations of thu law of "self preservation." What enacted our present taiiff 1 iws? ' What has through its in-tint-nee over our legislative bodies perpetuated thoso enactinmts. What has fostered and fattened the makers of tho"e laws and at the same time lobbed indirectly tho needy of our laud? Just tho same thing money. Money spout for and in the interests of the wealthy few to tlw detriment of many Now for a lemedy. Give Us a remedy.

If fo we again ask how. We hold thit thu Bimetallivts have answered questions pertinent to this subject. The arguments of the gold sUnd aid men have failed to satisfy tiio longings i.f a financially hungry people, as viewed by a by-stander. We hold that tho reduction of taiiff will increase markets and demand for our raw materials. That it will deciease tho piice of tho consumer's and our pioducer's supplies. That it will not foster private minufactmers and co operative lings and trusts nor com pel our consuming millions to pay moiefor their manufactuied ne cessities than legitimate trade and barter will allow. It will down anything more than a legitimate .profit through the competition of tree trade. Open up a lull and freo intercom se with all countries which furnish our necessities. Luxuries don't bupport a government. They are not perquisites to our existence nor to tho maintainanee of our government. Givo us a tax on income-'. Against tho assertion that1 it is class legislation we hold tlfatithe arguments of Sir Robert iPcol'liave not been answered. Givo nelbetter manoy and if thero really TSmoi; enough for the demands of ufespeople give us more money, Legislato in favor of all of tho states of the United States as a whole.

Legislate in tuviii ot the people and not in fivnrof money gold money, II needs be, to incieae theciiculiiting medium allow banks to issue to full amount of deposits. Don't see that that can do much haim. The greatest suspicion that attaclus to it is that gold btand.ud men and adiuini h.itionists advocate it.

Wo can not say fixed latin; for this vvi think imposslbl and piobably forovcr and cvciy decado or less time may demand a diireient iatio. Hetein let the em ergency meet tho demand. Will close by quoting from Hon. P.rjan of Nibr.i'ka: "Tho democratic party stands to-day between two conflicting forces. On ono -ido stands the oorpoiiito interests of the United States tho moneyed in terests aggregated wealth and capital, imperious, arrogant", corn passionless.
