' Brllomy 4 Buach ab.ui it. Editor Courier: Now that tho election is over wo seem to have more quietness, but in reality, there seems to bo about an niiirh political antagonism as ever on the financial question. It is the boast of the pluto crats that silver is now dead and soon an oblivions shroud will be thrown over it. It is not so with the silvprites, for thoy know that silver is a constitutional money an -.1 cannot be legally relegated to the back ground They know that silvar is tho laborer's money and without which, in plentiful! supply, gull w 11 ap preciate; an 1 Uiojtno doubly oppressive to the poor. They know that with the gold standard, the money of the country is more easily cornero I, and that Is tho uvoweJ olijoct of many of the plutocrats today. Givo them the control of the money of tho country, ami the nation's welfare is at their mercy. The bankers, the millionaires, the shylocks of eve-y form and name, Eii ni to think, and some of them even go so far as to claim, that they have u divine right to rule tho fluuncej of nations, ' ,t' We can see at a glauco the injustice of such a courdo. The people must rule in finances as well as in other departments of the government. So says Mr. Bryan ; so says every bvur of domo'oracy, every lover of a goverment of the puoplo, by the p.-jple and f jr the people, 'he pluto-'. ' crats to the contrary notwithstanding,' No, ne, the light for -bimetallism is still " on J it is on to stay ta the finish, anXany attempt to destroy the co-unity of value ot tie two metals as c.sLihliisliuJ in 1S34 uy as wise men as ever graced tlie nails of congress, cunnot help but work dis tress to the many while it uplifts tho few, just tho reverse of tiu rights our fathers fought for. Tho tea in Boston harbor was thrown overbwrl in. vindi cation of the puuplo's rignUi A war of coercion followed, and old Knglmid, jn defiance of her great strength, was badly whipped, yet the ceer,:ive claim. of England in that Jay were but A small ' affair as compared to tha oppressions of appreciated gold to day. Wo acquies in our humility, mid some of us go so far iih to seem to be willing to kius tho hands that smite us. Again in 1812, when England, claimed tho right to search our merchant ships for English foame i whom she clui nod still owed allegiance to thu mother country, our government protested at once. Another war followed, and proud England was again compelled to haul down her colors in acknowledgment of our right to protect our every citizen against unjust oppressions of every ' name. But is our government as care ful today to protect her citizens as in those days? I think not, or else syndicates and trusts of most every kind woald not be tolerated in gathering in such vast wealth at tin direct expunso and distress of the poor.. -. .. , Freemen, sons of America, do you still claim to be worthy sons of your sires? If so, your duty is plain. You have a heritage that is. equal to the best, and it is equally your ditty to preserve, without blemish, the liberties" ' your fathers beqeuathed to you, sealed with their blood, as it was their duty to assert and maintain the right to i here liberties.
