If the farmer 1 cannot get enough from the Cqw to pay for the food she eats he will keep her at a loss.' At $25 per year the. cost is about 7 cents per .day.

I have always regretted that w» were not givem the pleasure-of 'Shtlcipatlng the gold standard. The gffid standard concealed Its blessings, and we had It for twenty-three years Before anybody found it out, and before anybody dared defend it. After nineteen years, all three parties asked fbr bimetallism, arid the Republican party, which clafms all the Iptelligence and all the patriotism, met at apolls. \yais. the cliairman of the committee on resolutions, ancl n platform was adopted] saying that ,t|ie American people, from tradition and interest, favored bimetallism. What has, happened since, the .election? President McKlnlej/sent a commission tof three learned iuen- to.i Europe -to ask the European nations to help us to get rid, of the gold slandnrd. 'l 'htn willing to give hlffa credit for aH that he did. He had to admit that the j§t)id standard was a bad tlrfng, arid bright to' belp hife to get fi'd'bf it. The Republican Congress’ yMed |n60,000 to . pay the expenses ,qf, thla^commissiap, . and we ought, to give. the>-Kepubl>ean Congress credit Cor their iwilliugness to spend the people’s money -by-get rid Pf the gold standard/ The c#nindssWn went to Europe, arid Ffiince jofried with us in an effort to'get! rid of the gfold standard, W%' aict they do tS|? Because thq gold standard ,bad been]a curse to the English laboring men, hand they knew it. An agricultural commission reported, signed by two-thirds of the commission, that L the gold standard' had been the chief ' cause of the agrTcultriral depression Iri Englaifd. Farmers, how can you believe that jjie gold standard is good for you In tfie United States- when the .English farmers declared it bad for them in England, which Is the home of the gold standard? You tell me that England did not join with us to get rid of the gold standard. That Europe did not join. Why? Because sriu September, 1897, some bankers met, few in nnmbers, and with closed doors, and pledging themselves to secrecy,,adopted resolutions declaring that the gold standard was all right. These bankers controlled the English government and the English government controlled Europe, arid Europe, through the English government, controlled the policy of the United States. You. tell me that the gold standard gopd. No party ever won an election op fit. You toll me that the money question is good. No handful of English bankers can ever settle a question for the American people- They say we can’t use. the same arguments now as in 1890. There Is fi difference between a gold bug and a silver man. In Ohio, in 1897, when 1 Wrent do.wn there tp make a speech, they said.: “There comes, Mr. Bryan, singing the same song, an jn 189§.” The silver man could sing the . same song oyer n,«<l pyer . again, and 1( the . more lie sings. it.,the mpre the people like it.—W. J. Bryan, in his Des Moines 1 speech. - - •
