I am glad to know tint you feel as do, and that yon U'lll support -Mr. iJryan. I think we ouirht to go furt her. I do not believcwec -n trust our state atVairs in the hands of oiiicers that must- be elected, if at all. by the help of the corporations.

I .state. You will remember that my efforts resulted iu an increase in 1801 of almost $100,000,000 in an assessed value of such properly. 1 was employed by the Democratic- board of commissioners.

I expected assistance from our party, but 1 was not able to secure it outside of the members of the tax board itself. "The Ind'anapolis Journal threw cold water on every effort. All the assistanco I received came from Democratic sources. All corporate influences and all the wealth of the state of both parties joined with the railroad oontpanics. The fight, was carried ro the United States supreme court, where th attorney general finally won the vietory for the people.

Tho outrageous injustice of the assessments of such property, secured by tho influences of corporations over state officers, is shown by a single instance At the time I began the work in 1887, the entire property of tho Indianapolis I Union Railway company, all in Mai-ion county, was appraised at- only $79,000.

It was assessed in I SO I at almost $0,000,000, and this was $^,500,000 less than it was worth. "1 found on file in the office of the auditor of state reports sworn to by prominent officers of railroad companies, citizens of Indianapolis, in which the union depot, that cost over $750,000, was listed for axation at $40,000. These corporations debauch tho conscience of their own officer's and rob the state

development of luanafnoturb.? interests in the west an.. uth. If Mr agriI culture interests ol the we-r aim soma are to get any beae.it front pr .? '"tioii, it must be by the location of n. nurac-j tories iu the midst of these ai :i .llttual districts. This would furnish a market., near the place or production ior raw I material and food products. What interest has the easteu manufacturer in thus assisting to build up impiHition for himself, both as a prod .cer and as a consumer? What interest have the transportation companies in thus put

the consumer reside in the same community railroad companies will not be able to absorb so large part of the value of production for transportation, "When you consider it. I think vou will conclude, as 1 have, that the profession made by the money power, eastern manufacturing interests and the railroad corporations of great devotion to protection is insincere. Ir is a confidenco game now being played uion the rank and file of our old parry. "My position as the principle officer for a number of years of the Tariff League in this state has given me an opportnnity to know that the eastern and western protection forces have not been held together by mutual interests, out by reciprocal fears. Let it be settled that wo are to be the victims of the so called gold standard, and the.east will no longer have any fear of the west.

Whatever may be tho result of this election, the bond of fear between the east and west has been broken. The St. Louis platform has made protection impossible for a generation to coni" "AH the influences 'hat are uy ri'5t the people have unit. iu the support of Mr. McKiniey and the gold standard. There'is no hope for the people unless they can throw aside triti'iisr difeneuces and unite in support of Mr. Bryan and the bimetallic standard. "In bimetallism there will he more protection to the industries of tins country than can ever be hoped to result from any protection from a tariff schedule. The protection resulting from bimetallism will he universal, and its effects will first be felt where it ought to be. by the agricultural interests. "The principle that makes the division in this campaign is radical, and reaches from top to bottom. I hope many of my old Republican friends will be able to see this and act accordingly. "Very respectfully, "Flavits J.

Indiana lVoplo'i I'urty Kiglit In Liar. But the People's party bimetallists are not to be outdone for iu a ringing address recently published and siuued by their entire state executive committee all sincere silver men of the party are earnestly urged to work for and vote for the election of the Bryan-Shively tickets, national and state, ft-oni top to bottom, commenting on which the Indianapolis Nonconformist, the well known organ of that party, says:

The silver forces have been united in Indiana, despite the organized efforts of the Republican committee and the persistent interference of the goldites generally. The. Democratic party lias been generous in the matter of conceding to the People's party representation on the rongressional, legislative, county and electoral tickets, so that we will present to the common enemy a solid front.

There is one thing, however, which should not- be lost sight of, and that is the necessity and importance of supporting the state ticket, which will uip.ke financial reform a victory complete. If thore were a possibility of electing tho Populist state ticket, or if any good could be accomplished by voting for it, The Nonconformist would give this ticket its hearty and cordial support, but in this political crisis there are important considerations which appeal to every earnest man in our party. The candidates of the Republican party have been constantly using every means within their power to perpetuate tho single gold standard and have been unsparing in their denunciation of our party and its policies, and have not stopped at ridicule and insult, but liava resorted to tho vilest ami most oppro1 tuns epithets and charges, bribery, eto

With all the power of Mark Manila's aggregation of corporations, boodle, organized greed and legalized larceny behind them, they have been offensive, arrogant and insulting to those who put patriotism above part}" and who have liad the courage to army themselves on the side of humanity. One of rhe-e two tickets will bo elected to fill tae stato offices and the importance of placing the right men on duty cannot be over-esti-

mated. The governor, secretary of stafe. auditor of state anil two citizens appointed by tho governor, constitute ti'e tax board of the stare, whose duty it is to see that tlv railnvl, telegraph, banking and other corporations pay their just portion of tho burdens of the government and it-is the duty of the atiornev general of the state ro represent the people in

the

courts and defend the state in all controversies involving the collection of these taxes.

trot "There was no party lines iu the opposition of our reasonable demand that the corporate property of tho state .should bear its fair part of the burdens of the state, more than there is now iu the opposition to the election of Mr. Bryan. "That which is risrhtly denominated the 'money power' has no politics. It is always united when there is anything in polities that effects its interests. It lias usually been able to conceal thif unanimity by judicious division of its tavors to party organizations. It has made a desperate effort iu this campaign to keep its head covered but the naked lifdeousness of the monster is seen and its dfsigns :ire ar l.-nr understood. "We cannot afford to leave a single depart ne-ni "f rim state under such control.

We cannot hope to elect our own ticker indeed, many gentlemen upon that ticket, if not all of them, atrrea W:t.h our view of the matur. Either the Dem-'/eratic or Republican slat* ticket will be elected. We 51HISt choose between fhem: there is now no middle ground, no compromise. Wo have accomplished all that is possible as a party in this campaign, except ill of our crowning duty as patviotic c!ti zens. which is certainly ro vote for our friends rather than to give a ban' *ofo to our enemies.
