The New slave Drivers.

Since the abolition OF slavery in tho
South the protected manufacturers OF
New England have been the slave driv-
ers of this country. Regularly they
marshal their employees at the polls and
vote them, not as men, but as chatteis.
An assertion OF his manhood by one OF
these laborers, and the exercise of his
suffrage in disobedience OF the mandate
OF OF his boss insure his discharge and
loss OF his means of subsistence. Until
the adoption OF the Australian. system,
says the Louisville Courier Journal, he
was at the mercy OF his employer. The
new law changed this and gave him a
chance to cast his own ballot unintimi-
dated by the threats and espionage of
the manfrom whom he draws his wages.
Thus protected in mis- right to vote, he
is beginning to exercise it, and the Re-
pu blican party is sun in conse-
quence. Hence the cry that has gone up
tor a return to the old system and the
anathema that lie sounded, Damn the

sweet. but FAlIacious.

The McKinleyite press stops at moth
ing in the manufacture of fiction about
So called "reciprocity.n
Perhaps the boldest In this work ID the
American Economist, the official organ
OF the American Protective Tariff League,
which says: "All nations producing
sugar have accepted the reciprocity
clause, which allows their sugar free
entry into our ports, and we have now
no power to change those treaties made
In pursuance thereof
This, apparently, ID a deliberate at
tempt to deceive, declares the Boston
Post. For there havs been no s'treatiesn
made, and q simple act Of Congress is all
that is needed to set aside the entire
fabric of sham RECIPROCITY built up
under McKInleyism.
Worse than this, these bogus atrea-
ties,n which are no treat les at all, may, be
set aside at any time by any of the for
eign governments with which the ar
rangement has been made. And as some
OF these govern ments change twice a
year, on an average, by revolution, the
stability Of the arrangement is seen to be
not very great.
McKinleyism, in fact, permits foreign
governments to dictate the rate OF tariff
taxation which the people OF the United
States shall pay.

lead to the same result. The American
