Down witu uiviiujrOiy ©r ererj Which do you want, more bonds or nore money? You shall not crucify mankind upon % cross of gold. Let It be a campaign of education upon principles. The people are tired of boodle and brass band politics. Yes, Grover will be a very humble member of his party. The Initiative and Referendum got there by a large majority.

Bryan has the merit of having been only one kind of a Democrat. Hoke Smith has tumbled again; he is out now for Bryan and silver. It seems as though plutocracy did not hurt Bryan when they called him a Populist. No more government by Injunction say both the Populist and Democratic platforms. It was Populists that forced the necessity for the Democratic party to change front. Why don’t the plutocratic papers do some more howling about the “silver craze dying out?" This is a year of break-up and new alignments; be sure to get on the side of God and humanity. The question/ is shall we pay our debts with the dollar of the contract or with a 200 cent dollar. Bryan refused to ride home from Chicago on a special train offered him by the Burlington railroad president. Democratic abuse of middle-of-the-road Populists will not strengthen Mr. Bryan. Democratic papers take notice. Plutocratic wealth is arraying itself on the side of McKinley; the people should lose no time to get on the other side. Many are not pleased at the result of the convention but all should endeavor to make the best out of the situation.

The gold bugs are talking of putting out another ticket. There is no call for that, why not vote for McKinley just the thing. Again the sacred gold reserve calf is below the danger (?) point—sloo,ooo,000. We know by that our money is good in Europe. The Southern Populists had good reason for objecting to “jining” the Democratic party and therefore their fight for a straight ticket. Mr. Sewall now has the best opportunity any American ever had to show himself a patriot. Let him resign and calm the troubled waters. It begins to look now like the Democratic party would get another chance. If it does, the first thing it ought to do is to sit down upon the gold bugs. William J. Bryan is a far better man than his party and if he can succeed in having his party to redeem some of its promises he will prove himself a giant. It is all right to rise above party, but it goes pretty tough to “rise” back into the party you have repudiated, and this is the condition wi.b most Southern Populists.

Tom Patterson was a discordant element in the People’s party national convention. It was such men as he and such speeches as he made that engendered most of the ill-feeling exhibited during the holding of the convention. Grover Cleveland for a time seemed to have everything his own way. In this he was aided by such men as Carlisle, Vorhees, H<»;e Smith and others. Grover is now getting the reward for his iniquity and the new democracy should see to it that his aiders and abettors are also relegated to the rear. The charge that the middle-of-the-road men were influenced by Mark Hanna’s money at the recent Populist national convention was as unjust as it was uncalled for. It could have been said with much more propriety that Chairman Jas. K. Jones was distributing Democratic funds and promises. - ■. i . The People’s Party national convention is over, but out of the differences of opinion which resulted in so much wrangling there are scars left which a wise and judicious course of the national committee might heal over. The majority of the delegates who voted for Mr. Bryan no doubt did so believing that he would accept the nomination. If Mr. Bryan sees his way clear to do this, and it can be arranged to make Mr. Wataon his running mate, we think all will be well. Blit if Mr. Watson is to be Ignored, there might arise complications which will not only endanger the perpetuation of the People’s party, but also the election of Mr. Bryan.

THE PEOPLE’S PILOT, RENSSELAER, IND., THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 10. 1896.

“One most heard is that you can take one American silver dollar into Mexico and get two Mexican silver dollars for it. or that you can get a 50-cent meal and throw down an American dollar and they will give you back in change a Mexican dollar. I brand this as utterly false in every respect, a lie manufactured out of whole cloth. I assert that a Mexican will not accept an American dollar, either gold, silver or paper, for any amount, but will refer you to a broker, where you can sell your silver dollars as bullion for Mexican money, then they will trade with you. The largest hotel in the City of Mexico will not accept American money under any circumstances but will invariably refer you to a broker. “By paying the mintage any one can take silver bullion to either of the mints in Mexico and get Mexican silver dollars for it, and for 250 years silver bullion has never fluctuated up or down to exceed 2 cents. “I hear it asserted that the national debt is payable in gold. I brand this as utterly false. Every dollar of the debt, $146,000,000, is and always has been payable in the lawful money of that country, and we are now paying our debt in Mexican silver dollars, the money of the contract.

“I assert that Mexico in the present decade is making strides of advancement greater than any other nation on earth. Twenty-five years ago we had eighty miles of railroad, now we have nearly 8,000 miles of railroad. We are building factories on every hand. Twenty-eight years ago, when the French army was driven out, the Mexican goverment was left penniless, not a dollar in the treasury. We can now pay our entire national debt any day a demand would be made for it. “I am now on my way to Mexico to spend the rest of my life. Any one can find me by addressing a letter to James H. Kennedy, Sinaloa, Mexico. “In conclusion I invite an honest and thorough investigation into the facts of my statement and I defy sucessful contradiction. lam not the owner of mining stocks and no personal interest has caused me to make this statement, but have given it by request of an old

SILVER DOLLAR IN MEXICO.

lOWA MA!U, BY AFFIDAVIT, ATTACKS THEME!ICAA SILVER EXAMPLE. Special to the Chicago Record. Des Moines. lowa, Aug. 31.—J. H. Kennedy, a former resident of lowa, has attacked the statements so generally made regarding Mexico and silver by making the following affidavit before E. H. English, a notary public at Valley Junction: “I, James H. Kennedy, now a resident of the town of Sinalvo in the state of Sinaloa, Mexico, do solemnly swear that I am an American by birth; that I served three years in the 7th lowa during the late civil war; that I have always been a republican; that I have resided in Mexico for twenty-five years: that I speak the Spanish language as well or better than I now do the English. I have traveled through twenty-four of the iwenty-seven states in Mexico in an official capacity and as interpreter for numerous syndicates, I have had access to almost all the archives of that country. I am better acquainted with the customs and usages of that country than lam of my mother country. I left Mexico on the 2d day of March, 1896, coming to this country to visit my friends, relatives and old comrades. During the last month in lowa I have heard more absurd and utterly false statements made in regard to Mexico than I ever thought could be conjured up by mortal man, all to deceive the voter.
