"TARIFF WILL CRUSH THE FARMER." 1802, Free Trade. Thus In every State, o far a these statistic hare !een oollerted, the pro portion of home-owning farmer Is de jreaslng ami that of tennut farmers in creasing. This means but one thing: it mean a land of landlord and tenant, and, backed by the history of every nation that has gone down, I Ray to you that no people can continue a free people under n free government when the great majority of Its citizens are tenants of a Binall minority." William J. Bryan; speevb ou the protective tar iff In the National House of Represen tatives, March lti, 1892. Tee Aaiwrr la IOOA. The auswer Is found In the prevail ing good prices for grain, corn, hog, cattle, hay and till the product of the farm, together with the fact that since the date of Can didate Brynn's "crushing" speech, Western farm lands have doubled In value, and thousands of "tenant" farm ers of that date have become prosjier ous home-owners, tilling their own laud In peace, happiness and plenty. Under the National Irrigation Act, and the Republican conservation movement, the West Is soon to be the Intense agricul tural and horticultural producing area of the United States. "GOLD STANDARD WILL DESTROY HOMES." 189A, Free Colnaaje! 10 to 1. "I reply that. If protection ha lata Its thousands, the gold standard has slain Its tens of thousands." William J. Bryan; speech at Demo cratic National Convention, July, 180!. "The Democratic party has begun a war of extermination against the gold standard. We ask no quarter; we give no quarter. We shall prosecute our warfare until there Is not an American citizen who dares to advocate the gold standard. You ask why? We reply hat the gold standard Is a conspiracy against the human race, and that we should no more Join In It than we would an army to destroy our homes and to destroy our families." William J. Bry an ; speech at Albany, N. Y, August, 1896. The Amnrr In 10OH. The gold standard lias "slain" no one, nor did it write the "future In blood," nor did It destroy our homes nor foreclose the farm mort gage, nor did It close the dis trict school ; on the contrary, It has proved the sound and solid foundation of widespread prosperity, leading to In dividual progress and happiness, aided In paying off the farm mortgage and expanding the country's educational fa cilities. It has brought euch prosperity to our country as was never known before. Americans are the hnpplest and most prosperous people on earth to-day. "NO MORE FOURTH OF JULY." 1900, Imperialism! "The fight this year will be to carry out the sentiment of that song we have bo often repeated: "My country, 'tis of Thee.' If we lose, our children and our children's children will not suc ceed to the spirit of that song, and cel ebration of the Fourth of July will pass away, for the spirit of Empire will be upon us." William J. Bryan ; speech to the Bryan Home Guards, Lincoln, Neb., July, 1900. The Anavrer In 1908. Answer this for yourself. Do you know of any spot In the United States where the spirit of 1776 Is dead and forgotten and the Fourth of July a meaningless date on the calendar? On the other hand the humblest citi zen Is growing prouder of his American citizenship and the spirit of 1776 1 permeating the entire body politic. "ROOSEVELT THE SPIRIT OF WAR." Independence, Oregon Opposite Little Palace Hotel 1604, Antl-Rooaevelt. "I would rather gfjo down to eternal Oblivion than be Instrumental In the election of Roosevelt." William J. Bryan, Oct. 17, 1904, while touring Indiana. "The surrender of the present Presi dent (Roosevelt) to corporate Influ ences furnishes an excellent proor or the wisdom of Judge Parker in making the statement he has. But President Roosevelt stands for militarism. The present occupant of the White House (Roosevelt) represents In an ag gravated form the warlike spirit, as contrasted with the pacific policy that as heretofore characterized our na tion." William J. Bryan, in a speech at Springfield, Mo., Sept. 1, 1904, where he accused President Roosevelt of sur renderee to the corporations and hold ing "bloody, brutal and barbarous" sentiments. The Answer in 1908. President Roosevelt, Instead of rep resenting the" "spirit of war," stands before the world the greatest ex emplar of International peace in his generation. History will in full season award him the title he has Justly won, and the greatest of these will be "The Peacemaker," In spite of Candidate Bryan's assault upon him In 1904. Under President Roos-v velt's policies the United States ha taken Its place In the front rank of world powers. Taft Is committed to continuing these policies. 'GOVERNMENT MUST 0W1T RAILWAYS." 1906, Government Ownership of Railway.. "I have already reached the conclu sion that railroads partake so mnch of the nature of a monopoly that they must ultimately become public property, aad be managed by public officials in the Interest of the whole community. William J. Bryan ; Home-coming speeoh at New York City, August, 1906. The Anawer la 1908. ' The broad meaning of Candidate Bryan's remarks on this subject Is that railway regulation by statute law 1 Impossible, and that "gov ernment ownership" Is the only remedy for transportation abuse The enactment of the Federal Rate Law has totally disproved the claim of Candidate Bryan and vividly displayed bis unsound reasoning on great pnblle question. 1 We hereby offer $1000 to anyone proving by chcml" cat unal)-M or othtrwUe that CYHUS NOI'.LIi con tains anything excepting pure lrui,ht nficJ wlmkici.
