Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Liberal League and National Elections It is proposed by some Liberals that the National Liberal League, without pledges from Hancock or the Democratic party, should unite and vote with that party. They insist that Hancock or Garfield will be elected: that no separate nominations be made, and that the League abandon its specific demands for this campaign, and take the democratic ticket on trust. Liberals may be said to have definitely abandoned separate nominations in this campaign. Some will support Weaver. Others denounce him as a church member; but that does not prove that he is a bigot. He is to-day battling for free speech, and an honest ballot in the Southern States. He defends the rights of labor. He stood up bravely in Congress against the despotic rulings of Speaker Randall, who with the applause of his party, centralized power in his own hands and throttled the right of petition and free inquiry. The Democratic Chairman of the Committee on Appropriations is an autocrat. The Democratic rank and file in Congress are afraid to do justice to honest claimants, fetter themselves with self-imposed rules, and waste the session in partisan investigations, and vigorous protests against presidential vetoes and bayonets at the polls, and in attempts to unseat honestly elected Greenback and Republican representatives so that they may have a majority of the States in case the people fail to elect a President. The Greenbackers have fought the partisan schemes of the Democratic Congress, and have proved themselves in the South the allies of liberalism, in their demand for free speech and an honest ballot.
