That plank "as reaffirmed in ev. rv platform U> 180ft Since that time both have espoused the cause of live bank of i sue. Jefferson said that “bank were more dangerous than standing armies. ” At another time, in u letter to Mr Kppea, he said, "bank paper must l:e suppressed and the elreulat log medium restore! u> the people to whom It belongs." John C. Calhoun said. "The bank la a union of the gov eminent and the money power—a union far more dangerous than church B nd state " Henry ( lay said, “1 oon reive the establishment of a national bank dangerous to the safety and welfare of thia republic." Thou. H. lion ton said: "Govern m eut ought not to delegate this power issuing money) if it could. It is g I e*t a power to 1-e trusted to any banking company whatever, or to any authority but the highest uml most , (.sponsible government.'' In two of Andrew Jackson's un-ssagea he op posed it with all the intensity ot nature. In his farewell address said: "The result of the !ll-ad' lsed latum, which established this monopoly, was to concentrate the whole moneyed powor of the 1 niou, with its boundless means of corrup¬ tion, and its numerous dependents, under the direction and command of one acknowledged head: thus or gauii mg this particular interest as one body, and securing to it unity ah, concert of action, throughout the l nited Stale*, and enabling it to bring forward, upon any occasion, ita entire aud undivided strength to sup port or defeat auv measure of government In the hands of this formidable pow or, thus perfectly ganixed, was also placed dominion over the amount of the cir , .Rating nmdfutu, giving it the to regulate the value of property th* fruits of abor. in every of the Union; and to bestow prosper comport with Its own interest or; policy.” No principle in political economy Is WH cr established than that the volume of money regulates Its value as compared with commodities. In other words the volume of money In circulation fives prices. Then the power that controls the volume of tuoncy also controls prices of comma dltlea. I’or this very reason, says Danicl Webster, "Congress was given , currency." The control over the estahllslimcrit of the National bunk tvus a surrender of that power.

LOC^L POLITICS. if it Does V/lth tin: Platform and Action tli« National Party a Fraud. '1’he effort fuming made in the west an j HOU th Mdve the people again on yhe silver! pla! Mfetion. Although the national ifil contained a plank declaring fo< ?» silver on an inter national ha hlch means au m crea 8cd ratlai thaij 1 t/he consent of Great Britain, thE aration was tnlscon strued In overt*IWthem .palgn of 1852, and nearly and western democratic (U^Pmamen, WjtlB Igssman, and uiony repuliUcan were elected un the htrwjte»§ Hg their declarations in favor s ter, at the ratio of i,j to I, nnM if lit awaiting the ao u 0 n of a tom government.

This I the >eord and it can „„, 4 t be wiped on r A means that the government v/yde United States has practlc illy go^e out of the business of '‘coining m iney and regulating the value thereof," aud has turned that prerognli -o over to the bankers. It means that l ic whole business of this country is now placed in the hands of perhaps fifty bankers and brokers who can contract or expand the currency at will. Who can pro¬ duce a panic whenever they desire and force the government to issue bonds at their bidding In some of the southern states the demoarats have incorporated a 16 to 1 silver plank in their platform. In Califor uia the republicans have done the same tlilug. if this is not for the p„ rp08e 0 | deceiving the people. w hy Is it? iVibh eighty majority j ^ hoysjv the democrats wore unable to pass a free silver measure No sane mau claims for an nstant that the party will be aide t< increase that majority. On the other hand it is more than likely that it will be reduced, if the democratic party, then, could not give us free silver with eighty majority,how can wo hope to hove it from a houso with a reduc -1 majority. The facts are plain. The democratic partv is opposed to free silver. That is, a ma¬ jorlty of theifi leaders are. ll the western and southern democrats are sincere in their declarations for free silver let them)cut loose from a party that is responsible ffor Us defeat. What can the minority expect t ido against the majority majority when it will is known that the is and be as smted by the republican*. If the south ern democrats ire in favor of free silver let them show i themselves to be so by attaching the ojtsetves to a free silver party. the hands No of on^ the expects republicans free silver The at whole record Is against that party with more fori e than the democratic party. Duly t fteen out of one hum ored and tweu ty-eight votes that «-ere cast favored fi ee stiver The adoption "t a free ailver plank in the state platform, as has been done by the democrat* of i ^ .rkansas and the repub licans of Calift irnia, is a fraud, a de lusion aud a »' ixre These men know that so far as ts influence in national affair* will i stand it amounts nothing. It is amply a cas j * promise ot t ae tail to wag the dog It is rut there to catch votes. It Is not the policy of the national parties nor will it ever be put into effect by them. Again we say if they are In earnost with regard to free silver let them join a free Bilvcr party—the People's party. KELLY JOINS THE POPULISTS, A Prominent Indiana Democrat Formal, ly Annouueea Ills Change of Faith. Iudianapolis Iud, Dispatch: Thu report that Freeman Kelly, one of tbs foremost democrats in northern In diana. has joined the I'opulists is con¬ firmed. Mr. Kelly was a candidate tor congress in his district several years ago, and was defeated by John H. Baker, now Foiled .States dialrict judge, by forty votes Kelly served interview Mr. Kelly says: “1 have left the democratic partv and shall never return to it. The democrats have lied to me long enough. The party has made prom¬ ises year after year and has failed to keep them. It has been captured by the gold bugs In the cast, and the great west, which la suffering for the want of money with to ness, need never expect any assistance from it. I have left the party because it has not been true to its principles on the money question, 1 have joined the I’opulists because that party rep¬ resents my views on the money ques¬ tion. We need more money with which to do business- The circulation per capita has steadily decreased until there is not enough money with which to carry on the business of the coun¬ try. The people cap not expect relief from cither of the old purtics. Neither can get away from the power of Wall street. The latest cry is for an inter uatiouul mon tary conference Why should we go Into an international conference while we are starving here at home for want of ratney? Let’s look after our own affairs first, let’s give the country money on which to do business and the cry of hard timei will soon pass away.” HOW SILLY! Congress accepted the senate bill and then turned round and passed bills to pul coal, iron and sugar on the free list This is like voting against the only silver law we had in order to clear the deck for free silver. It will end about the same. The house was either bought, bulldozed or scared int > their support of the senate bill with all its monstrosities. It was simply a confession of weakness that Is wholly inexcusable. If the sugar trust and a few senators are going to dominate legislation what is the use to have a house? It is silly now for the House to send bills to the senate to undo the mistake it has made. Those bills have been voted on separ¬ ately in the senate and defeated. It Is a clear case ot dishonesty or incom¬ petency. More? Contempt of Court. "1 am a Fouulist an 1 am in favor ol wiping both the old parties out so they will never come into power aga : n. 1 have been a democrat all j l want life and am ashamed of to admit to the it. everv one vou to go j | polls and vote the Populist ticket.”— V.
