LooK AT THIS RRACTICALLY.-Look here ye
men OF practical common sense. New YORK
city IS under Democratic control exclusively.
and has been for years. What is her credit
IN the money markets of the world? So low
that the Berlin Stock Exchange has declined
TO allow New York city bonds to be quoted
ia it's list.
On the other hand the United States Gov
eminent is under control of Republicans and
has been since 1860. The result is the rising
OF the pubic credit from - per cent below,
to per cent above par.
LOOK at it in another way. New York I'm
der Democratic control is constantly increas
ing her public deb5, and many of her EN-
ployeeS are unpaid for months. The United
States under Republican control is constant
~ decreasing her public debt, and pays her
obligations before they fall due. New York
underu Democratic rule is shut out of the
money markets of the world, while the Uni
ted States under Republican management,
steadily decreases her public debt and is
funding the balance at lower rate of inte
rest.
