WORTH CONSIDERING.

The great bulk of the people of
the United States are depend
ent upon their daily earning. Tor sup.
port, and it is of the highest .n 3ortsncc
To them that the government . smands
upon those earnings Sn,uid IT, - LIGHT rs
possible.
1t makes difference Of S. per head to
every man, woman and child in the coun-
try whether the annual expenditures of
the nation are S29O,OO00O0 or 100000
900.
1t makes difference of seventy five
cents per head, or Sc for family OF
father, mother and six children whether
the national expenditures are $24O,OOa-
900 or S2700O0,0O0.
The Republican party and the GRANT
administration have in the past seven
years and half expended over three
hundred million dollars more for the
ordinary purposes OF goyernment-eN
elusive of interest, premiums and debt
charges-than was necessary for an
efficient, honest and economical ADM Il
iStration.
Grantism and the Republican party
have taxed the people for the national
administration about eight dollars per
head more than wa needed with honesty
and economy.
Every family of five have been plum.
1ered of forty dollars to maintain and
perpetuate Republican ring rule since
1869.
The people complain of hard times;
but Republican rogues have fourlshed
while the people were overtsxed and
pundered, and hundreds of millions have
been recklessly misspent.
The Democratic House has stood by
the people. 1t has demanded and in
sisted upon reduction of expenditures.
Thirty million of dollars have been cut
from the expenditures OF last year.
A Democratic administration will fol-
low up the reduc ion in expenditures of
this year by n still further reduction, and
will take efficient measures to lessen
taxation.
A Republican administration, aided by
n Republican Congress, will maintain
lavish expenditures and drag millions IN
necessarily from the people
Economy is the order OF the day, The
people must be economical to live. To
secure economy in the nation, they must
elect a Democratic administration.
