The ? citizens ahould rule the country and ' not the dollar, Believes in reciprocity and arbitration between na- ( tions. Wants to break down the * trusts and corparalions that are J in restraint of trade. Corporations are good and necessary but have no 1 right to violate the law. Capital 1 and labor should go hand in hand. Will fight tho free pass business. Need a different national financial policy. Is opposed to the PayneAldrich bill, it would ruin the weak I banks.

The tariff is a burden on tho poor m?.n, and is transferring . the wealth of tho South to the " North. Legislation in the interest of the farmer is needed. Believes in Federal pensions for Confederate M Veteran*, boeause they are entitled (\ to it and also to offset the drain on ^ the South for Northern pensioners, thinUs ho could get such an act (J through if electod.
