WILL THE wORKINGMEN ANSWER


What is the tariff?
1t is tax.
What is the Mills bill?
1t is reduction of the tax.
Why, then, do people who have
to pay taxes and work for the nee
essaries Of life object to the Mills
bill ?
Only because workingmen have
been blinded and hoodwinked into
the belief that their wages depend
upon the protection which the man
ufacturers get; all of which is fall
lacy, because we see every day that
the manufacturers who get the most
protection are the very men who
give the lowest wages, and who have
the most trouble with their opera
tives. Look at Andrew Carnegie's
troubles; and he is the bloated and
protected monopolist who admitted
that protection gave him 81 100000
in a single year. Wages have not
only nothing to do with protection,
but it is now seen that the highly
protected manufacturers are the
very men who encourage foreign la
Dor as soon as thsir own poorly paid
operatives demand better wages.
These things are facts. Working
men are beginning to find that
wages are controlled not by what
protection their employers get, but
by the simple law of supply and de-
mand.
Prices are similarly regulated when
a high tariff doesnot raise them, or
if the workingmen.will vote for the
party which believes IN reducing
taxes, they will see the day when they
can buy their food and clothing at
reduction Of fifty per cent. They
VIII not, as protectionist simply pre-
tend, see their wages reduced in
such proportions, for as manufactur-
e:s do not now give their operatives
any of the surplus pocketed by
means of the protective tariff, they
will not dare take away from the
workingmen the wages actually
earned in the legitimate business of
the mill. 1t is very clear, then, that
the workingmen's interest lies with
that party which is trying to reduce
the taxes and therefore to reduce
the prices on what makes up the
food and clothing of the people
