THE WEALTH MAKERS.
THE OREGON CAMPAIGN.
A Letter From The Wealth
1 1 JMkerSp clal Correspondent.
POHTtAXi), Ore., April 25. 1894
Your correspondent had a very pleas
ant Hip made the acquaintance on the
way o! a member of the Colorado legis
lature which wa called together by
Governor Waite, and which refined to
do anything except draw theirsalarie.
It was easy to see tbe true Inwardness
of that refusal. Silver mining, the best
industry of the state, bad been de
stroyed by Congress. The governor
asserts that Congress cannot take from
each state tae right to say that gold
and silver ot the requisite fineness are
legal tender in the state; that Cmgres
only had the right to fix the standard
and issuo toe money; that gold and
sliver coins are msney, and that Con
gress was never givm any power to
destroy their money value.
He wanted tho legislature to so de
clare this in Colorado, and thus force
the United States supreme court to
pass upon It. He backed his opinions
by such strong argument tbat the only
answer his opponents have ever given,
is to ca'l blm crank, fool, &c, &c.
Tb Mid Winter Fair is ft miniature

county ex blbits take the pluce of state
buildings cd siate exhibits. The
quantity and varieties of II wers sh wn
every day Is a feature worth going half
across the continent to see.
' Oregon is now in the midst of a hot
political campaign. The only morning
dally paper in the state is the "Ore
gonlan " It ii entirely undor tho con
trol of the extreme gold bug wing of
the Republican party. It thcreiore
praises G rover Cleveland, who is the
best republican of them all. The a ict
tor, Joe Simons, a Semitic, has rua the
politics of th state for many years, and
the "Oregonlan" is bis mot hamble
and faithful servant. The Democratic
paper is published from the same press
by the same men, and is really an even
ing edition of the "Oregonian." Every
thing Is therefore lovely, Republican
in the morning and Democratic In tho
venincr. In this city, however, somo
influential and determined Republicans
are Decerning urea oi ring- run aim

In throwing eft the dictator, who rules

by money and the forces it wM pur
cbas
KuaH nf ihA three n&rtlcs has put a
full state ticket la the field. Dut in a
number of counties the Popuiists will
carry the members ot tne legislature
end in this and a number of counties
the Djmicras and Populists are unit
ing for the sarao purpose, They are
likely to carry the legislature. One of
the measures on which the Democrats
and Populists are agreed and deter
mined to carry is the "initiative and
referendum," Nebraska be heard but
little of this measure, but in, this state
it is the largest plank in the platform.
Governor Petinoyer has intimated tint
ho wl.l call a special session of the
legislature this fall if a clear majority
of the representatives elected are in
favor of such a law. A veto will thus
bs avoided should a Republican gov
ernor bj elected and the people of the
state would have a chance to reject any
objectionable lawj parsed by any future
legislature.
If Governor Pennoyer had accepted
the nomination he would have been
elected, although it would have been
his third term. The people brieve in
him. He is a man of the people, honest,
fearless, and has tho confidence of tho
masses. He Is most cordially hated by
the gold-bugs. He will bo tho next
United States senator from this sttto.
Xo journal In America is a more pliant
tool of the plutocracy than the "Ore
gonlan." It was ordered to train its
heaviest forces agaluat the Indmtrlal
army which hai been gathcrlcj here
for mrao days. Accordingly it edi
torials have been abuse of a thoroughly
respectablo looking lot of worklngmen.
They are a superior lot, physically and
mentally. No eplthut l too rlio and
no He too ghtrlof for this paper to use
in describing these wen. It would have

Editor Wealth Makers:
The man who walks into the Chicago
river when a bridge is turned sees fur
ther ahead than do the business men
who advocate . gold commodity money.
An article in the Chicago Herald of
Apiil '."b, explains that Hon. John
Spoon tr, ex-cODgretsmaa and rail read

well as alder and abettor to the North

The Krticle is an outline of history con
nected with the Northern Pacific and
is full of ftod t v rellection. The his
tory of that t oad, ai well as the other
so-called Pacific road?, is valuable to
the study of civilized evolution, in the
same way that the history of crime in
high places in all time is valuable to
note the brutality and corruption or tne
age tola or. rne j acme ruaus ro
agenales through which such polhbed
scamps as Otis Ames and his suocer
sors to the present have robbed the
public of millions. They prostitute
legislative and executive oftloers of the
nation, and their crafty villainy crawls
into tne seat of justice and the ermine
of our cauru 1 used as a mangy cur
wnuld tine a babv's bed, Tbii will be
true while public functions (as in rail
roading) are operated by private cor
porations, Dut let me quote from tne
Herod's article:
Milwaukee:, April 8. The history
of tneNortnera raclno railroad is a
uattonal scandal from the beginning.
It opened In an era of wild congres
sional legislation toward the close of
the war. when a dtbaud currency was
tha c&use of almost Infinite demur all z
tloo, and the moU ilsgrant profl gacy
marstd the appropriations and the
financial administration."
I have underscored the "bebased cur
rency" to draw attention to the fact
that the time (1864 C) to which he re
fers the congressmen who were legls
lAtioor for railroad adventurers were
also legislating for so-called "honest
money based on bonds and (be national
banking scbomo. These congressmen
were "funding" (?) the greenbacks,
which meant destroying them, and in
their stead issuing interest-bearing
bonds. In private transactions the
narties at Interest being poor, tbat
transaction would be known as a fraud.
In this way the national debt if as mure
than doubled and the ashes of the so
called "debased currency" became
"honest" as soon as an interest-bearing
bond based on gold took its place
When a politician of one school is
caught at some vile trick by an equally
vile politician or partisan sheet of an
other school, and the act ii aired, the
rcadlntr world comes into facts that
will enable the historian of the future
to give dishonor instead of honor where
dls' onor i due. No nation was ever
so vilely betrayed, no natioa was ever
more wantonly Imposed up jn In fiaunulal
legislation than has bsen this people
since 1S02. Tho result of that leglsla
tlon is now coming to a head and every
report of tho national banks to the
comptroller shows where tho matter
lies. Tho press reports of April O h
give a summary of bank report and
quoto Mr. Eskels as saying "the finan
cial sltuatlan as shown by tho bank,
quite encouraging." Yes, to the banks;
but how aout legitimate business?
The showiog made December lli'b, Inst
year, and that of Februry 28th this
year. dUoloios the fact that natbnal
bank currency outstanding was do
created in that sovcnly-ono days oyer
j,.'8(10(0 the nation hadag farmed
out its right to tbe national backs to
Usue currency finds the banks raiding
prices on money by curtailing It sup

They show an Increased piling up of
money in the banks of U'J.MlOi'O dar

that report Quite encouranlitg,
Indeed, to the bunks. Is it
any wonder the Coxsyltcs are led lo bi

would ba as easy to put out the fires of
Sheol by sweat from labor 'a brow as to
try to keep a hundred millions of d!
honest gold dollars in the nation's treas
ury under our present fiscal system, de
vised and managed as it is by such fiscal
bunco steerers ss are John Sherman
and Carlisle and their school of
property rights. The army of Coxey
lies are simply e vol at Ions of conditions
to demonstrate to tbe business world
that an "intrinsic" dollar, whether gold
or silver, is as dishonest ss the claim ot
"divine right of kings." And a few
more bond issues will extend the finan
cial slave territory and hasten the date
of commercial freedom. The money
dealer and protected manufacturers
have tramped to Washington In Pull-1
man cars every sestion of congress for
more than thirty yearj to bay laws
making this nation a paternal ov(ro
raent to them and ut the expen'o of tbe
producers. Tbeso lutllectnal brutes
in their coming and going spent money
freely to lubricate the law-makers into
action, and the citizens of Washington
welcomed them as a sweet boon. Now
theCoxeylts tiamp to Washington In
the mud and dust and with half-baked
ideas of paternalism, but no money. And
they are likely to get unmarked graves
for their presumption; but over thoe
graves will bloom the plant of commer
clal freedom, at over the graro of John
Brown bloomed the plaot of freed ra
to the darkey, Tho dishonest gold dol
tar will be domonet'.jd and sink to its
true level In tho arts and sciences. Its
free .coinage value now set upon it by
ltw is dishonest and cannot bs made
honest unless the government becomes
paternal to all commodities aid makes
set value by law, which is impossible
under competitive conditions.
Corporate national banking or private
banking occupy ' tho tame economic
position In the business world as do
chinch bugs in a wheat fl aid. The bank
feeds on interest and the control of
money whlcb blights business tbe chinch
bug fieds on the tender plant aid
blights the wheat The merchant who
d spends on tte exohtngo of cimmcdl
ties mad 4 by labor will have to choose
between bis patrons, the laboring com
munity and the msney dealing Qinch
bugs. Which is it his Interest to main
tain? Tbe independent individual
toller, or tbe paternalistic olesi who
deal in intrioelc money made by law
The financial brutes are forcing the
fight upon at, and the abolition prlnc!
pies of 1861 must be now settled in a
new form. A. J. Gi'STi.v.

That to secure these rights, govern

people to alter or abolish it, and to in

Jiolh the Democratic and Uepubllcan
parties have established head-quarters
and are today preparing millions of
campaign documents to bo sent out dur
ing tMs campaign.
it is the opinion of tho shrewdest
politician at Wahington, that If tbe
People's Party takes advantsge of the
blunders and Infamy of the present
administration, there will be no trouble
In electing Populist members enough
to hold the balance of power in the
next Congress, It is alto admitted by
the closest observer among b tb tbe
Democratic 'ind Itjp iblioan politicians
that tbo next election of president will
bo thrown into the House, which will
give tbe Populist tbe power to dictate
who shall bo tbo next president of tbe
United States? Tbe eloctlon in the
state of Oregon comes off in June, and
in Alabama in August. We are al
most absolutely sure to carry Alabama,
and we stand an even chance with either
of the old parlies in Oreg8n, To help
to carry Oregon and Alabama Is to help
put life and enthusiasm in our party in
every state la the Union.
The People's Party is composed of
tbe great common people of the country
who are poor and honest. It has do
millionaires, bank or railroad corpora
tions upon which to call for campaign
funds.
The National Committee hu estab
lished head-quarters at Washington
where it can procure an unlimited
amount of campaign llteraturo at a
small cost. One thousand dollars used
In our party will do as much work as a
hundred thousand dollars in eltbor of
tbo old parties,
After carefully considering the above
facts and the bright prospects for our
party in the coming camptlgn, we feel
it our imperative duty to appeal to our
pooplo everywhere to como to the aid
of the national committee in doing this
great work. Id the last election our
party polled more than a million rote
for president.
We now earnestly appeal to 1,000' of
that number to give us 15 each, 10 000
to five u tl each, 20,000 60 cents each,
20,000 25 cents each, and the remainder
of the one m lil"!i to give us 10 ccn't
and 6 cents each. We also earnestly
appeal to all People's Party Clubs, Le
glons, and Leagues to raise what funds
they can for the committee, by taking
up collections, giving entertainments
etc. Wo make this request becauso we
believe it our duty to do so. If our
party ever attains tuccess each mem
ber of the party must contribute to that
succots not only with his ballot, but
with whatever means be can spare. To
respond promptly and liberally means
success tbat will bless the nation for all
time to come.
All contribution should bo sent to

standing in the minds of certain per
aoas la regard to ho organization of
the Induitrlal Legion.
It has revet been tha ntnnn
organize the legion anywhere but in
the towns. There is no man in tbe
state more earnestly desire to see tbe
Farmers' Alllanci reonranizl than t
I do. For that reason I mM rt
let any work, with whiah I am
0mncct4d, roofllct in any way with
that reorganization. Binoe I have
been s'ate recultlng otticer of the
Legion I have directed all rarmitw
officers ontler me to oonfloe their work
to tne towns. As tbe Farmer.' AliUmv.
caonot organize In the towns, for it
officers to oppose tbe starting there ef
another organization. advirMna (Via.

am -j principles, scemi to mo so plainly
ft dog in the mange' policy tbat I do
not belie vo any true Albaace nan will
be guilty of pursulagit, aft be fullj
understand the Utuation. In th
anuage of the Omnha n.ati
interests of rural and clvlo labor are
the sam; their nmlis identical." If
the laborors in th juntry need an or.
ganlation, so do the laborers of tha
city.
Tbe Industrial Leglou ba been
recommended by the National Populist
committee. It is belmr
almost bvery suu of the Union. It is
just tne organization needed for the
towns. Nebraska shall not remain be
hind the procession. I have under,
taken to organise the Legion la thla
state and, by all the powers that be, It
will be organized In this state, even If
I have to visit every , town . myself to
effect that result. It Is all right to
cor coot fine-spun theories, to Indulge in
ethereal opinions and to complain of
hard times. Thoso things are well In
their plaoes. But what wo need la this
state Is organisation and work. And
we need it right now, Let one thoas
and men who are not afraid to do some
thing, give what time they can spare
from now till eleotlon day to tha work
of organization and agitation and Me
braikawill be redeemed. Let us put
s m vim and vigor and energy and fire
into the cause. There is not tbe slight
est need of going to slot p none in the
world. A misdirected effort 1 better
than no effort at all. A movement,
though erratic, is better than stagna
tlon.
What we have got to do Is to organ
ize. This is not put In hero to sound
well It it put here to mean something.
We have got to organize. Our enemies
are tireless; they are sloeplcss, they
work all the time. So, then,' must we.
We must reorganize tbe Alliance In tha
ooun'.ry, we must organize the Leo-ian
la the tewni, wo must reorganize tbe
political committees all over. And wa
don't particularly need sledpy Divts
and bundles of dead men's bones upon
meio euncr. we want rustlers.
Men may differ from me. mav erIH.
else me: that matters not. Tlm
Justice by all of us. If I feel that I am
tOng' right. I am not .fM nt .11
the misrepresentations in the universe.
But I am determined tbat the Populists
must carry tbe state this fall. And to
do that we mutt nerve ourelveu fop
supreme effort. We are right u sure
as there is a Ood in heaven we are
right, and we munt stand up and do
batilo for that rlht like men. ,
la city and In country, let those of m
who are true and who are in esrnest.
prepare logo to work now. There is
no time for delay J A. Edqerton.
