Texas is all right. Down with toryizm. The old parties are consolidating. - The gold-bags want another bond sane. * Cheap goods are produced by cheap tabor. The Democratic party is not even true to itself. The day of the party-whooper is nearly done. The world condemns right and worships wrong. V 1 ■■'■i When you vote for either of the old parties you vote for both. The absorbers of all kinds are uniting—why not the producers? This is too great a country to be at the mercy of a foreign syndicate. If the greenbacks are destroyed, we plight as well pull down the flag. The people have a right to question Very act of their hired representatives. That Chicago Republican convention ■was a nice little exhibition of anarchy. The gold-bugs are comprised in two Classes —money loaners and office huntirs. Millionaires don’t make good servants for the people. Quit voting for them. Every dollar paid to an old party newspaper is a dollar given to help the enemy. ~The eastern states are properly called “New England.” They are still loyal to old England. The ‘‘sound money” league is a secret organization of gold-bugs that originated in London. The old parties are both international —that is to say, they both get their orders from England. Government through a syndicate of "foreign bankers is worse than paying .tribute to a foreign king. It is costing the tax-payers of Spain three million dollars a month to tyrannize the island of Cuba. Gold is good in Europe. That is the Teason it won’t stay in America. Give us money that is good in America. Throughout the crash of business and the wreck of American independence (Grover continues fishing serenely. If the gold-bugs think they know the people, they will find that the American people know them better.
The bosses issue the bonds—but the people have them to pay. Issuing bonds is easy work —paying them is different. The Kentucky campaign appears to he the center of attraction for all parties. The Populists are gaining rapidly. Millionaires, railroad kings and political bosses control both old parties. Join a party that is controlled by the common people. Mr. Horr is forced to admit that he attended Coin’s Financial School —but he wishes that he might make affidavit like Gage, that he didn’t Senator Sherman is doubtful about the wisdom of annexing Cuba —but he is confident that an English financial system is necessary in America. Arkansas is soon to have a state Populist paper, edited by W. S. Morgan •and George A. Puckett, of Hardy, Arkansas. It will doubtless be a hummer. Willie C. Pollard Breckenridge, of 'Kentucky, is a fair specimen of the genus gold-bug. It is certainly a noble cause that enlists the services of Breckinridge. The London Times is in favor of a third term for Cleveland. The gold-bug press of America may rest assured that their policy is approved in England. Whoop ’er up for Grover. It would be a God-send to America if never another dollar of foreign capital should be invested in this country. No more tribute to aliens forever, is the true American sentiment. Why not just appoint the Roths-•hhilds-Morgan syndicate receivers of the United States treasury, and let them ■settle up the affairs of the country,'and turn the proceeds over to the bondholders?
Senator Vest, of Missouri, “the little Imll-frog,” like Mark Twain’s famous ■“Jumping frog,” is so heavily loaded ■with the cuckoo shot he has swallowed that he can’t do anything but sit still and croak. If either of the old parties nominates a western man for president, you may be sure that he will be a western man with eastern views on the money -question—such a man as Allison, of lowa, for instance. The rapid work of the Texas legislature in passing the anti-slugging match bill, is a specimen of what legislators could do in congress if they would, Instead of talking forty days and forty nights and then selling out. The Philadelphia Item is the only great daily paper in America that is unreservedly a friend of the people. Every reformer in the country who can afford it should subscribe for the Item, and keep the money power from crush lng It out.
