PECK'S FIGURES ACCURATE.
The Manufacturers League Produces
Names and Figures Fully
Sustaining Them.

The few Democrats who had the bad
taste to question the accuracy of Com
missioner Peck's figures because he re-
fused to give names of manufacturers
are sorry now that they did so. That
action was a boomerang. 1t stirsed up
the Manufacturers league to look into
the matter, and they have obtained
statements from thousands of manu-
facturers, over their own names, show
ing an increase both in wages and
production. These manufacturers are
scattered through New Jersey, New
York, Connecticut and elsewhere, and
show increase in wages paid under the
Mckinley law from 10 to 40 per cent.
Many of them also show large increase
in production and number of people en-
ployed, the production having in many
cases doubled since the Mckinley law
went into effect. The league has made
the figures public, and invites every one
interested in the effect of the Mckinley
law to examine them.

PECK EXONERATED.


Dismissal of Charges Against Him by the
Democratic National Committee.
The injustice of the Democratic at
tacks on Democratic Labor Commits
sioner Peck, of New York, is shown by
the dismissal Of the criminal case against
him in the Albany court on Oct. "a
The case was the one brought by the
Democratic national committee, through
its subcommittee, charging Peck and
his stenographer with destruction of
some of the records of his cfice. When
1t was called in the court ON Oct. "a the
prosecution, knowing the falsity of its
charge, did not even appear, and the
case was dismissed.
This shows the unjust and false char
acter of the attacks which have been
made on Mr.. Peck and his report.

You can vote anywhere in
your magisterial district, at any
election precinct in the magister-
ial district in which you live.
The safest plan is to vote at
your nearest poll or usual place.
The Committee should watch for
persons voting at two places, as
it is charged was done at the
corporation election. If you
think you will be challenged,
have your affidavit ready to
swear to before the election COM

covering the law should be at
