If the Democratic press and leaders
can be believed there are no new in
dustries growing up in this country,
no fields of enterprise being developed,
no new factories being started, no
growth of prosperity in any direction.
1t is the wish that is father to the
false assertion. They do not want the
country prosperous because they fear
prosperity will defeat their designs on
the national government.
