Yours very cordially,

CYCLONE DAVIS
Gifted Orator Preaches Reform
of SoYernment.
POWERrui, SINCERE AND EFFECTIVE
The opening of Ihe oamoalgn for Ihe
Citizens ticket In Ijiue oounly began
today with Ihe speech of J H (Cyclone)
Davis, the brilliant eplgrammatlual
orator of the Loue Star state.
The olrcuit court room of the court
house was used, and before the hour
orspeaklug It was taxed to Its utmost
capaolty, quite a large uumlier of
ladles being present. At 1:80 o'clock
Mr Davis was Introduced by Judge J
J Walton aud proceeded at onoe to the
discussion of the leading political
quoftlous.
j.y me ngut oi the past can we see
to advance into Ihe future," said Mr
Davis. "Government such as ours Is
organized to give and perpetuate to Its
people certain Inalienable rights,
we, noerty anu the pursuit of happi
ness, and the movement of govern
mental functions should tend toward
that objeot."
iue imperialistic policy Is to grade
government to the existing conditions
oi men as they are ground down, and
compel a suumlsslon to the same. The
true Jeflersonlan democratic policy is
to defend, proleot and build up the
people by a strict adherence to the
principles of the government founded
by our forefathers as a place where
life, liberty aud the pursuit of happi
ness is our birthright.
The question of trust or monopoly
ownership of lauds was handled strong
ly oy Ihe speaker. A monopoly of
laiiu never was contemplated as a Di
vine right, and whether It be a duke,
lord, earl, sydlcate, mouopoly or trust,
to concentrate the ownership oi laud
In the bauds of a few is against tho
masses and for tho olnsscs. To place the
enormous powor of wealth lu the hands
of a few people, creates a power In this
ropubllo more potent than that exeited
by many kings and potentates.
"Nine syndicates In these United
States can purchase nine states in the
Union, Including Alabama, tomorrow
and pay the cash for them."
The military, lu case ot war.
or the federal government has
alone the right to build, equip and
ereot highways, yet this Is disregarded.
The ownership now vested in private
bands Is direotly opposed to the
constitutional Intention.
In commerce It Is the lame. Mon
ey la the power. Money buys the
machinery in the manufactories, and
mouey owns and controls the men who
run the machines whose effort fills the
ooflers of the few. -
Franklin said, "I am constrained to
believe that those who have the power
to oontrol money, will have the power
to oontrol the destiny of the people."
This statement was made at the time
Plckney moved to vest In the president
and bis cabinet the power to regulate
money.
The amendment as proposed by Dr.
Franklin was, that Congress (the
people, not the few) shall have the
power to coin money, regulate the
value thereof and of foreign coins.
He who has the power to pull tbe
pursestrlngs of the people bos tbe
power to pull the heartstrings of the
people.
If thirteen small states could "go It
alone," establish a government, build
and fooler it, and regulate Its money
acceptably In the commercial world, It
is the shame of degeneraoy now lo lay
that the United shall ask of, Europe
permission to coin or) not ooln money,
So rapid bos been our growth and vast
our advancement that we should
beaole to dlotate our financial and
commercial policy by the rights of the
constitution which we are supposed to
consider,
"I am a plain American oitlzen,"
"lid Mr Davis, "who believes that the
Declaration of Independence is Just as
applicable now as when written, and
that the Constitution should lie as
sacredly regarded now as ever before."
The per capita of circulation in the
United States (honest money aa well as
dishonest) will not nay the Interest on
our Indebtedness. The total of all our
commodities will not pay our indebt
edness. It only serves to Adjust our
Interest and allow the creditor nations
to dictate our prices and still keen us
subservient. The value regulations
place on us, they together with restric
tions on coining silver metal equal
with gold, keep us still tho debtor
nation. Flat money Is coined. It is
true, but it Is not for the people It Is
for the banks.
This method will never secure for
the people life, liberty and bapploess,
which our constitution assures Its
citizens. But it Is tbe law, and the
banks secure the Issue of the govern
ment money-grinding machines,
while the people are compelled to
barter their commodities for II.
Mr. Davis bandied every question
be presented moat ably and forolbly
Throughout the entire speech Mr.
Davis was greeted with applau -prolonged
and sincere, aa his telllnv
points were scored rapidly and sc-u
lately. He speaks at t'ottaife Or r
tonight.
