Thomas II. Carter, Chairman Republican Com
mttcc:
DEAR S.H-Bclow | give the reasons why
Wayne MacYsagh. Judge Gresham and de
sert Harrison and protection, and come out for
Noble Grover Cleveland and free trade:
We are against Harrison because he is an
honest Christians: because he is for temper
ance, and for twenty years has been a Chris
tian vest rylnan, and twice 4 day bows down in
family prayer.
We are against Harrison because he drew
his sword for the republic in lsGl. while mobile
Grover Cleveland bravely staid at horne md
hired substitute and raid him with the
money earned by hanging criminals.
We are down Harrison because he did
not desert the nation. as did the noble Demo
cratic party. with secession in the senate.
theft in the department, bankruptc; in
the treasury and treason il the field,
We are a Democrat.
We are against Harrison and I he Republican
party because they freed 4GG,C0o slaves in 1861:
because they made them citizens and gave hem
the right 10 vote for tic nation for which they
fought. and because il these infamous Rcrun-
Hcans We're once in power they'd honestly
count these frrcdmcn's votes ard stop noble
Democrat from holding by fraud the presiden-
tiaI office.
We are Il Democrat.
We are opposed to Harrison and protection
because tie English a:istocracy hate them
worse than they hate an Irish patriot. and
because if Harrison remains our president nc
will watch the tariff alI see that it protects
our woTkngmen.
We are Il Democrat.
We are down on the Republican party for
saving the republic when seventeen Demo
cratic states trod down our flag; down the
republican party for slaugterins lN.No free
trade rebel Democrats and down On Linco- l..
Grant and Garfeld-yes, and Logan. Hale,
Gonhiins-for making England give up Mason
and Siidell, spit on that rebel flag, and reyer-
emily cheer the stars and stripes.
We are n Democrat.
We are down on Harrison because he killed
Mills English tariff bill for lowering, the wages
OF our northern workmcn. down on him be-
cause he says hell keep the Chinese out. and
hold back ignorant paupers coming i'll to Dust
our high priced work men of the north.
We are down on Harrison because he will
keep such copperheads as Thurman. Adj Ste
venson and Daniel Voorhees, out: because wa
love those noble Democrats. who. when We
were soldering. cursed old Abe Lincoln and
stabbed Us in the back.
We are a Democrat.
We are for Cleveland and free trade bccarse
all our ex-secessoniSts for them: because
with free trade our mills will stop and starry
ing European workmen will make again our
silk and tin, unless Our Yankee wornmen
work. like them, for pauper pay.
We are fer Cleveland because he kicked the
Yankee soldiers. vetoed GO pension bills and
sent the crippled veterans back 10 s.arve or
fiji tue poolh house, and down on Harrison be-
cause lie would not turn his back on legleSs
comrades with arms Slot oil while holding up
the stars and pes.
We a Democrat.
We are for Cleveland because England wants
him. AM because be fa,ars building up great
English industries by breaking down American
manufacturers; because be wants the Yankee
workmen IT, live on English pay. and because
he wants the free trade south to ship direct
from Highland and kill our Yankee work men
III the north
We are for Cleveland and free trade because
every rebel who shot into flag is for them.
| am n Democrat for free trade and against
the Yankee worSingmen because jeff Davis
was. and Beauregard and every old slave
driver of TIE south are.
We are Democrat.
Yes. we're down on Harrison because he
wants our honest silver dollar good as gold,
and because he makes US pay high wages here
at home. when we could buy cheap from
starving raupers on the other side.
We love Grover Cleveland because he weeps
and cries Reform the ballot" then sGue!che-
million frecmen's ballots in the south. but l
am down on Harrison because he wants every
Union loving freeman. black or white. to cas-.
his honest vote. when he knows well an
honest count will break the Democratic sonth
! and stop another president by fraud. Yours
/ truly. Eli lERkISs.
