some we're on the half roof In front OF the puans'

Colonel Robert F.. Frazer. who made the ADDRESS OF
the evening then gave his bearers speech that WIS
full Of hard facts and sound logic lie sld III part
az were not believer in the tariff, should not
be a Republican The prosperity OF the country Ut
Ponds on the prosperity OF the Individual, ana man
who does not want his neighbor to prosper Is all
enemy to his country. The great cry OF the Free
Traders Is that the manufacturers getting rich At
,be eYnense OF the laborer Well suppose for a
moment that this is true. II the manufacturers did
not get rich they certainly would not Dc eApehui"s
money employing TO work for them III our
manufacturers were not getting rich under the pro-
lection OF the American tariff, the English lord would
be enjoying this prosperity, and he would ho1 DC
spending this money in America, but on his estates IN
England lie certainly would not come over 10 the
United States TO spend It, so that while the Demo
Gratis are decrying the prosperity OF the American
manufacturer and to take from him the wealth
that he Is accommodating and deprive him OF the means
OF employing labor IT the United States they are EN-
deavoring to place this wealth In the hands Oh brush
manufacturers and give them the power 10 employ
labor on the other side of the ocean, England wants
this country be purely agricultural and IN lo"i sc
entered into conspiracy with the Democracy 10
make Us n purely agricultural country. And she Is
now playing the same game with this same Demo-
cratic party. Ireland IS purely AGRICULTURAL couh-
try She is In inst the condition that England wants
her 10 be IN and she Is In Just the condition tha1
Free Traders want the United States TO DC In 'ho
lrishman likes a purely agricultural country, why
docs no no, STAY I'm ireland , Why does he save all
his pennies and come 10 the highly protccted
United Statosl And when he is here why does lie SET
about tearing down those Protection bui"arRs "hch
have made this country what II Is, and why Goes ne
vote against the tariff that has made this country SO
desirable that he has left Ireland to come over here
III
live in. what are the Scotchman and Enslshulm
doing over here eating roast beef sundays and
mutton chops all the rest OF the weckl why DON'T
they stay I'm England with their oatmeal and lverl
England wants the American market and don't
blame her. It's the best market In the world III the
whole world should sink around us we should sun DC

families first. We propose 10 look after our own
families first. We propose to supply our own wants
AS far ne possible II want navy, we propose
TO supply all the materials for building the ships all
