rich a few. The State is filed will
an overplus of laborers who become
the tramp element when the mills ar
idle: It has disarranged the Who'll.
industrial fabric of Ohio. How mucl
better the masses OF the State woult
have been if the Legislature had no
put on this 100 per cent. on wooler
goods? The farmers would have re
ceived lust as much for their whea
and paid only one half as much t.
clothe their families. The laborer'
would not have had such an influx o
foreign labor to compete with, anC
would have paid only one-half az
much to clothe their families.
Now this supposed case OF the State
OF Ohio is just what has happened to
the United States as a whole. The tar.
iff has kept out all manner OF foreign
goods while allowing the foreign labor.
or to come in free. The consequence is
that the country has been filled with
the cheapest labor OF Europe.
EUROPE IN AMERICA.
Go through some of the mill towns
of the East and you would almost
think you were in some foreign coun-
try, you see so many natives of Europe
in the streets. Take Patterson, New
Jersey, for instance, if you watch the
mill operatives as they go and come
from work, your first thought is that
you are in a French manufacturing
town. Is that the way to protect the
native working people OF New Jersey,
to fill the silk mills with operatives
from France ? Take the woolen mills OF
New Hampshire and you will find
some of those mill towns largely
p,opled by French Canadians and
from tie mill towns OF
By bringing in those oper-
atives from Canada and England, how
does it protect the natives of New
Hampshire ? 1t protects the owners OF
the mills in the right to tax every
man, woman and child in the farm
ing States of the West on the woolen
goods they wear. The farmer OF Iowa
pays nearly twice as much for every
yard of woolen goods he buys for his
family, and yet year after year
he is bamboozled to hurrah for the
party that would keep
him paying these infamous taxes.
The cry is that something must be
done to. reduce the surplus in the
treasury. The few hundred millions
accumulated in the treasury at Wash
lngton, do not give fair showing of
the wrong committed. The great
wrong lies in the thousands of mil
lions of dollars that have followed in
the wake of the surplus-the millions
that have gone into the Golfers of the
manufacturers as the unjust tax upon
the masses. J. w.
