But you know it is said silence is
golden. I was the first man in my
county to leave the old party, and
declare for independent political ac
tion, when both old parties repudiated
the alliance demands. I have met the
enemy on the hustings upon almost
every hilltop in my county, defending
our principles. If they were right
then, they are right now. If reform
was necessary then, it is more so now.
I am an old mid-roader, broken down
in health, but ready to go at the first
bugle sound to battle for our cause,
with all the power I.possess. What
thinking man can hope for relief
through the sham battle played by
the two old parties? Look at the game
now on in Congress. Show me the dif
ference in the two old parties except in
name. I believe it is to the interest
of all reformers to get together, call
a convention in the near future, and
formulate some plan by which or
ganization can begin as early as pos
sible. If every old Pop will send in
just one dollar as a campaign fund
we can keep several able men in the
field until Populism is preached in
every county in the Union. Now,
one dollar from every reformer is a
small sum, and I think great would
be the result. Make the call, and
let us rally once more for a cause that
seems to us so just.
