If the gold men have any legislation to propose that will give relief. let us know it. Let them proclaim it. The only thing they have proposed or suggested was more contraction. more hard times. less money for the people. lower prices. more debt. harder competition with the Asiatics. This country. with its 70.000.000 people. ought to be the richest nation on earth. and it would be the richest if an English syndicate had not been allowed to rob us of our patrimony. If we could make American laws. if there was an American sentiment here so that we could make laws for America and not have them dictated from the other side of the Atlantic. we would be an independent and a free people.
