WOULD NOT BE COUGHED

muZzle Governor Campbell by ~bulldoZlnR
him into silence when he attempts to
make a speech. The scheme was tried at
East Liverpool the other evening but it
failed miserably and the governor, instead
of being annihilated, came out of the
encounter with flying colors.
East Liverpool is a manufacturing
town. Pottery is the staple article manu-
featured. The own is dominated by the
manufacturers, who not only run the
municipal govern ment but have hereto
fore dictated TO the working men how
they should vote. Each manufacturer
used to lead his men up to the polls.
Tickets were handed to them By overseers
and these we're deposited in the ballot
boxes as an expression of the free and
unfettered will OF American citizens. In
various speeches since the beginning OF
the campaign Governor Campbell has
alluded in scathing terms to the manner
in which the pottery employees have been
enslaved, and after laying the matter bare
has denounced protection as exhibited 10
this case, where in the face of increased
protection the wages OF the men have rap
idly fallen.
The manufacturer have writhed under
the governors tongue lashings. They
came out in afidavits to prove that the
wages had not been reduced and through
their local organs ~arrogsntly warned Gov
ernor Campbell to steer clear of East
Liverpool or he would be treated to q
reception that would parAlvze him.
Campbell showed 10 his bter speeches
thatthe ,a~dn--s~ere mefe su5terf6Res;
LAT while the wages we're not technically
reduced. yet the size Of the various kinds
of ware manufactured was increased so
that the men could not possibly make the
same amount of money per day as they
had done before the Mckinley bill went
into operation.
When his engagements permitted him
Governor Campbell set a date to speak in
East Liverpool and beard the protection
lion in his den. The meeting was held IN
a big skating rink. The manufacturers
made careful preparations for the event.
All the policemen in the town hold their
positions through the sufferance OF the
manufacturers and while many of them
we're on hand TO add to the din, none of
them went there to preserve order or pro-
tect free speech. Heelers and touehs
galore we're on hand with instructions to
