People's Pilot, Volume 5, Number 15, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 3 October 1895 — The Real Object. [ARTICLE]
The Real Object.
The gold syndicate is exchanging gold for greenbacks, a few hundred thousand at a time. But the climax will come, when their contract expires and they have on hand all the greenbacks they have exchanged for. Then they will demand gold for the whole pile, and force another issue of bonds. Thus incidentally they also hope to scare the people into demanding the destruction of the green backs. It is a great game, and the people pay the fiddler. And now comes the real true patriot and says: “I said I wanted to see the democratic party tried, and then if it didn’t do better than the republican party has I was done with it forever. I am now ready to try the Peoples party and I say the same thing of it. In the future I will vote for principle rather than party."
