ALL ALONG THE LINE.

Aroutel Awake, Democrats of Indianal
and once more march to battle and to
victory.
And you, Republicans. who desire reform
and are tired of the slavery of party which
is ruled by place men aud spoil hunters,
help US now with ali your might.
zs@
Only few days of preparation aud action
remain. You have high principles to AMI
mate your counsels, high aims to consecrste
| your action. Give all your thoughts and en-
ergies to the defeat of the party which is the
| friend of the capitalist only, and no longer
the friend of the poor man.

And you, the adopted German citizens OF
Indiana Republicans as we'll as Democrats,
| will you forget the party which stood by you
in 1889? The cowardIy Republicans then,
as in 1854. endeavored TO take away your
| personal liberty, and the Democracy then
battled for your rights. Will yen turn
against that party now, when 1t is fighting
the battle of administrative and revenue re-
form2 Have you already forgotten the Re
| publican "bugle cali'' of Iowa and Kansas
for prohibtion2 If you have, and If you
desert the friends of personal liberty in their
| gallant struggle now against Blaine and his
prohibition cohorts. you will have wounded
the Democratic party in the house of It's
friends and jeopardized the very rights OF
which Republicans desire to deprive you.

And you Irishmen who love the Green
l = = ID
preston, will you forget the party which,
under the lead of the eloquent Willard, of
Indiana, and the impUlsive Wise, of Vir-
ginis, throttled and destroyed the monster,
"Know. nothingism," thea called American
ism? Come, let US stand together, shoulder
TO shoulder, in this great battle against our
common enemy, the Republican party. That
party, as led by Blaine, is the best friend that
England has ever had. Blaine's high pro-
tective tariff has kept Americans out of all
ports of the world and given England the
monopoly of trade. With all our natural
resources, Blaine's policy has kept us and
you under English subsection. What do
the Republicans care for your Did they ever
profess to love you in times of trouble
or trial2 Did you ever hear of Republican
love for the Irish until just before this inn
pending election2 The Democratic party of
Indiana asks you to work and labor to re-
buke this Republican hypocrisy at the polls.
Come, let rs rout the Republican tyrants,
and by 30 doing We will rebuks your British
tyrsnts.
Farmers, you who work and toll in your
fields, how has the Republican party
helped your By their fruits ye shall know
them, Consider how the Republicans have
taxed the articles which make up the
clothing, food and shelter of the
farmers instead of the luxuries and
superfuities OF the rich. They have put a
tax on every garment of wool, cotton, linen,
or leather which the farmer must wear.
They tax his shoes, his socks, the needle
that knits his socks, his drawers, his shirt
his trousers, his coat and his hat. You,
farmers, are made By the Republicans to
bear the heavy burden of the tariff tax, and
they and Blaine tickle you just before each
Presidential election by the glittering gener-
atty of protection to American industry
How long, OBJ how long will you be the
hewers of wood and drawers of water for the
Jay Goalds and the Enos and the Grants
and Wards Of projections
%e&
And you, manufacturers, have you not
had enough of high war tariff? Has over
production or what Butler calls under con-
sumption, helped your Are you, who are
small manufacturers, making any money or
getting any orders, and when you get them
| do fhav M roo11xr in
days of labor-saving machines, require or ex-
pect of the labor and sweat of the farmer
and mechanic that they shall pay bounty
to your Don't you know that Blaine's
protection does not protect you? Don't you
know that an unnatural and artificial
stimulus, falsely called protection, engenders
feverish competition, oyerproductisn and
bankruptcy Come out from this foul and
unclean Republican party; join hands with
the lsborer and farmer, and let the Repub-
licsn party die because it is no longer the
friend of the small manufacturer or of the
laborer, but only Of the capitalist and mo-
nopolist.
Mechanics. laborers and workingmen of
Indiana, you of all men need change of adj
ministrstion. Help us to get rid of the
CALLING yoke of Republican tyranny. How
has their high tariff helped you? Blaine
himself admits that it is nothing
unless 1t protects you. Then its
wortL. essness is apparent. Why are you
idle in high tariff times2 Why for years has
everything been depressed2 Why do the
manufacturers discharge your Is it not on
account of over-production2 Do you ever
think of the fact that under the present OPP
pressive and unfair Republican tariff system
you and the farmers who have often large
families 70 support pay more tariff tax than
the millionaire who has no family, and who
boards sumptuously at the Fifth Avenue
Hotel2 Come, boys, roll up your sleeves and
work for Cleveland and Hendricks and bet
ter times.
