Mlnden, Presten, Kansas. Ex Governor John P. St John talks like this; The first thing the Devil would do would be to write a salutatory, He would give it an intense religious tone. He would shout for "Old Glory" and scream for liberty, and pitch into the Mormons, but would not say a word about the thousands of slaves, and our government salaried Sultan and his seventeen wsves, under the protection of the American flag on the Island of Sulu. He would openly favor bimetalism, and secretly work to put the government on a single gold basis.

He would talk long and loud about the "People's money" but place them at the mercy of the National banks to get it. He would declare that the Cubans "Were and of right ought to be free," and then refuse to give them their freedom. He would denounce fraud, and then send word to the canners of rotten beef to clean up and eet ready to be whitewashed. He would stand quietly by, and without even a protest, see the organized trusts rob the people of hundreds of millions annually, and call it prosperity. He would advocate the levying of a high tariff tax on the poor man '8 food and clothing, and tell him it was protection.

He would be as quiet as a graveyard while we were burning negroes at the stake, and punching their eyes out with a red hot iron here in our own country, but would make his columns speak in thunder tones in favor of sending our soldiers eight thousand miles from home to fhoot our civilization and Milwaukee beer into the Filipinos.
