not true. The food of the workingmap,
including sugar, was cheaper here than in
any market In Europe. Clothing worn
by the workingmen, Including blankets,
was IS cheap in the United States as in
London or Liverpool. The quantity and
quality of food of the laboringmen were
confessedly better and greater here
than in Europe, and the rate
cent. higher here. The President did not
dispute these points, but appealed to the
manufacturer, who had been represented
as ro5ber, conapirator and exsortioner,
not to reduce the worklngmen's wages,
but to pay more out OF bis surplus profits
profits very often found on the
wrong side of the ledger. Would
it be wise to pursue policy
that would compel the reduction OF
wages to the general standard in Europe.
He was willing, according TO the r quo
lican national platform of 1884, to correct
irregularities of the tariff and to
REDUCE THE SURPLUS,
not by the vicious and indiscriminating
process Of horizontal reduction, but by
such methods IS woald relieve tie tax
payers without injurlng the leoorer or
the great productive Industry of the
country. He could not deepen and in
tensify the struggle going on between
employers and employed by inviting in
creased competitions, Gripping man
ufactures and reducing wages. BE
preferred G. policy OF reducing prices
by home competition rather than by
foreign competition.
In conclusion he said: We have buili
up our industries by policy founded
upon the highest patriotism. By
taxing the people it seeks tC
benefit and it extends it's benefits
impsTtislly 10 every industry and TO every
section. It concentrates in our own lane
and among our own people agriculture
commerce and manufacturing, making
each support the other and sill contribut
ing to the wealth and grandeur of the
republic. These great deep arteries
of Industries are not now divided
by sectional lines, but arr
interviewer like the veins, arteries ant
muscles Of the human BODY. What w
want now is the cultivation OF
THE SENTIMENT OF PATRIOTISM,
intense love Of country, feeling O
national pride. Every American

ought to feel that this il

can do for mankind is the best for GU
