If you want, to vote on the right side vote against what the money power wants and in favor of what it opposes. Wall Street hired the Democrat ic party to kill silver, and now some of the party are silly enough to be talking of bringing it back to life. What nonsense ! Wilkes can never get the per simmon as an independent pros perous county until she has fewer second-class politicians and more first-class farmers. Wanted A liberal reward will be paid to any good, sensible Dem ocratic statesman who will accept the nomination for the presidency in 1896. "I will vote for the devil if a Democratic Convention de mands it" says tlT? great rock ribbed TO' rx xtic, .... Harris of Tenner .,M. t&M the pure stuff, to be sure. - We have a .stationary money volume and an increasing popula tion. What's the reason this doesn't make a man's dollars fewer cevery year? Are you a fool? t. Has anybody seen anything of that "wave" of Democratic pros i perity yet? Better repeal another j Sherman law, and give the people another slice of "tariff reform." 4 They are getting desperate ! Nails at 5c ts. per pound. That's low isn't it, ' Mr. Snyder?"

We don't want such conditions to prevail in America as do in the Old World, and as sure as there is a God in Heaven, or a drop of Anglo Saxon blood in America's workingmen, Old World condi tions shall not, cannot prevail lor any long period in this land of Washingtons, Jeffersons and Lincolns. Korn Knife. The Constitution of the United States says "Congress shall have power to coin money and regu late THE VALUE THEREOF." But the gold-bug, which is another name for Tory, says we must have the consent of foreign nations in regulating the value of our money. Are we ashamed of the heroes of 1776? ' Everybody remembers how coffee a few years ago took a sudden rise. We were told- that it was because an earthquake had shaken up a little coffee islet which is not larger than the 4 State of Wilkes." People believed it and. paid two prices for coffee and have continued to do so .till many have forgotten that coffee was ever 10 cts. per pound. Now we hear it hinted that the sudden rise in the prices of leather and nails is due to an earthquake which has gotten under the nail foundries and tan yards. The wonder is that a big bouncing earthquake doesn't bob up serenely and shatter down and swallow a government so ever lastingly corrupt as to foster and protect such trusts and combines as are controlling the prices of coffee nails, leather and most everything else. Here is a financial plank for the national Democracy for '96. It is as clear as mud and is all right for free silver Democrats, gold bug Democrats, rock ribbed Dem ocrats, and the two dozen other kinds of Democrats. Read it: "Resolved, That we favor the use of both gold and silver as money, under circumstances similar to . what we think it ought to be, or was at the time or a little previous to the time it was not, or should have been bearing resemblence to as other nations, that it could, might, would or should . be with propper and appropriate inter national . agreement and co opperation on a bimetalic basis, with equal intrinsic value, and due regard to parity of circum stances that should apply to the adjustment of values as they effect national credit with foreign investers, and in such lawfully prescribed manner and terms in the premises as aforesaid ; that every dollar shall be intringically as valuable as every other dollar under substantially similar con ditions and circumstances on the same line, running in the same direction especially in Europe." , Here is summarised the decla rations of some of the best thinkers on the money question from John Locke and Adam Smith down to the present time : 1 . Double the volume of money' and you1 double prices. 2. Divide the volume of money and you divide prices. 8. Double the volume of money and you divide debts. 4. Divide the volume of money and you double debts. . If the Cleveland administration had a contract-to turn this coun try over to the devil it could not have succeeded any better. Ex. Cleveland Carlile & Co., will boss the next national Democratic convention or bolfc. Mark it. Cussing Cleveland won't save the Democratic party. - - - -V : J? r x '.1.-.: T:,.l--:':.?S- 7
