Itis atement, and re. a such a plain manner that any reader can comprehend its meaning. No political campaign is in progress now to blind public sentiment and for that reason it can be read with much profit for the imformation it cou- tains. The money question is a live issue apd will be the dominant issue in the next presidential campaign. It is well then that the public keep track of recent events in the political field that bear on this question. That is why we urge owr | readers to give this address careful and | thoughtful attention, ——— —— - i Tur great strike among the cotton | fill employees in the New England states leaves many thousand workmen | Olt of employment and is what is most annoying to McKinley. He is the chap | who in '¢g6 promised to “open the mills | instead of the mints,” The Republicans who hung those large placards up in their places of business, bearing that fa. miliar inscription, during the campaign, prefer to talk about the weather just pow. Bellefonte was posted thick with them, but here also nearly all our mills have been closed too, and the working people are in great distress, They were disappoioted like many more. Now these same republicans are pointing to dollar wheat, but they can't fool the people on that score.

No political par ty absolutely opposed to bimetallism has ever yet dared to face the electorate of the United States. The Republicans won last year on a platform not greatly different with regard to financial mat- ters from the Democratic § The only difference was that the Democratic platform meant what it said. The Re publican platform did not mean what it said, and 6,500,000 votes within the past few months seen their pi- cions in this respect justified. The ad- ministration has receded from the inter national bimetallism pledge and now stands flatly for gold alone as the meas wre of labor's products. From this po sition the party cannot now recede The Republican party today is the sponsor for an industrial slavery. Even should it recede from the gold when the battle becowes hot, that action will not release it from the deserved contempt of the 7,000,000 voters who were fooled by its false promise to abolish the gold The of those 7,000,000 voters shoulder to favor a large insist that it a ratio to keep ledge havi suspi Rreater portion will be found working shoulder with the Democrats in the next national eampaign. Therefore the only obstacle wow in the way of indus. trinl freedom through bimetallism ie the three years' lease of power that be- longs to the Republican party. It can do a great deal of barm between now and March 4, 1901, For that reason we are in favor of this kind of an amendment to the con- stitution: ‘Every political party seek- ing the suffrages of the people of the | various states and territories shall ful. fill its pledges within one year after the inauguration of the president. Failure | 80 do so shall necessitate another gen- eral election.’ Another Query For Protectionists, We sell Canada $61,000,000 a year. Great Britain sells Canada only $23, 000,000 a year. Each country has climb into Canadian murkots over tariff barriers the same height to all.

It comes to the point squarely and boldly when it gays: ‘The Democratic party is siding with and aiding the antitrust, which is the antiwealth, cru sade, and the Republican party seems to bo than half afraid to meet the issue and in wany instances falls in with the crowd, No political party can bo successful which does not join either the mob or rise sufficiently above it to be able to deal with the demands of the mnsses on a high statesmanlike plane.’ There you down flat, Everybody can understand all of it ex cept the “‘high statesmanlike plane, In explanation of that it will suffice for tho present to say that on the *‘plane’’ is mapped out a grand programme of paternalism to compensate the for the re nmitted trusts under shelter of the tariff, The wicked Democratic party is sid ing the trusts and secking to compass their overthrow.
