Here are more of the words from William Jennings bryan from his famous cross of gold speech. They tell us the great cities are in favor of the Gold Standard. We reply great cities rest on our broad and fertile prairies, burn down your cities and leave our farms and your cities will spring up again as if by magic. But destroy our farms and the grass will grow in the streets of every city of the country. They say environmentalism is good, but we cannot have it we have a Gold Standard because england has we will restore. And then new england has because the United States has. If they dare to come out in the open fields and attend the Gold Standard, the good thing, we will fight them to the utter most, standing behind us, producing masses of this nation and the world supported by the commercial interests, the laboring interests, and the toilers everywhere, we will answer the demand for Gold Standard by saying to them, you shall not press down upon the bow of labor this crown of thorns.
