drawing drav ln within its doors all wiio wajo man ma not feel like patronizing the big bi tent in other words the object is to aid the election of mckinley and defeat bryan it is is the desperate effort of the gold standard men to defeat the people and fasten the golden chains of bondage n upon their necks forever these men who have grown gray in their service to dem democracy cracy now low turn against their lifelong life long i pr principles I 1 ne I 1 ples and service and in order to sen serve e the avarice of their hearts become recreant to all the traditions of their past lives and are willing to aid and comfort their old time enemy that they may possibly be permitted to eat the husks of the goldbug 0 feast should they win this whole e affair is backed and promoted by hannas gold but it 11 not be a drawing card it is another case ase c of the jackass enclosed in the skin of the lion the ems ears are am Ix exposed Posed and the roar of this beast i is but the braying of the aw ass it w will 1 ill have no perceptible effer effect t on the result except to increase mr bryans majority as all those who vote for this pair of old fakirs fakiri would have voted f for or

acif is being being said through u gh the goldbug 6 papers and by bv the mckinley orators about the low wages paid in mexico a free silver country notwithstanding all reports from residents of that tha t country and visitors v from our own and other countries all agree that mexico Ni exico is tod today ayone one of the most prosperous lands land on earth As to the question of wages it i is true that the mexican peon unskilled and ignorant receives less than the average 0 american wage earner but still even he receives much larger wages than most of the laborers in gold standard countries the egyptian r fellah living under the beauty of a gold standard works for five cents per day the turk works for a few coppers per day the spaniard receives on an average for 12 hours work the magnificent sum of twenty cents cent per day the portuguese for 12 hours of hard bard labor gets seventeen cents per day portugal adopted the 0 gold standard in 1853 and since that time her national debt has indrea increased ed per cent her three per cent gold bonds 1 1 are now selling rn in in london at twenty six and one half cents while medicos cos silver bonds are selling at ninety six and one half cents several gold goldbug bug merchants have been offering za to s sell ell 50 cents worth of 15 goods and give a mexican dollar in exe exchange kange for an american dollar this was thou thought 0 ht to be a great object lesson in favor of gold until some one of offered ferel to sell 50 cents worth of an article and give 2 50 in change L in portuguese 3 per cent gold bonds for one of our dollars all this rot about mexico is for the purpose of blinding the voter it is true mexican dollars only pass in this country at their bullion bullion value and as silver is de in the united states they only pass at that rate but is that not true of all foreign V silver why dont we hear something n said about the value of the spanish silver dollar the french franc the german thaler or the canadian qa quarter arter all these countries are on a gold basis and yet vet their silver is only worth its bullion value in this country mexico is a young 0 republic not yet thirty years old with a mixed and deteriorated race of people and in a land of mountains and volcanoes and which has been convulsed with political revolutions re for almost one hundred years in spite of all these obstacles under a free coinage system she has prospered and is today at attracting tr acting za the capitalists of the world and all her industries are expanding pan ding free silver has helped her an and d will help the united states far more should we return to that system of money like all the arguments of the gold standard men that of mexico becomes a boomerang and only serves to establish the soundness of bimetallism major mckinley still remains at home re receiving ceiling Z company and repeating his little speeches prepared by his tutor and master mark hanna after nov 3 he will wih be ohio but bat he at home in canton WM will not have near so much company the mountain will not go to kanyr it would longer mahomet any not be surprising king if the english would send a delegation
