LAD #21 Bryan's "Cross Of Gold" Speech

No time ever previously in history has a political issue like this been so fought over. A little while previously a group of the Democratic party gave a speech explaining that all of the Democrats who were in favor of the free coinage of silver should be therefore in charge of the Democratic party. Well that caused unrest and conflict among the Democratic party. Even though we are all from Massachusetts we want different things and each person comes up and says something different that they want. A group of the Democrats are no longer going to fight or petition they are simiply just going to defy the others. They keep arguing back and forth one group is saying that the income tax passed by the other was unconstitutional and the group that passed it is saying that it was constitutional at the time etc. The other group is accusing them of resenting national bank currency and they keep arguing. The one group thinks that it is the government who should be coining the money.
