The Jersey City news. (Jersey City [N.J.]) 1889-1906, 1892-10-18

The piiferings of the Repub-
lican party were never checked
until Grover Cleveland was elected, and
then halt was called. For four years he
gave us d government under which we
prospered. When he retired from his
office he left an enormous surplus in our
National treasury. Again the Republican
party came into power, and what has
been the result? Have you not heard of
the Billion Congress, Of how
money WAS squandered with moth
ing TO show for it, and today
our treasury is empty and whya Because
the Republican party is giving us a gov
ernment that is robbing poor people of
what little they have, and is enriching
rich people. 1t is party for the monop-
olists TO the oppression of the classes.
PRACTICAL RESULTS.
Not many years ago there were In this
very locality rolling mills and numerous
other small manufactures which gave
employment to about 1850 workingmen.
Where are they today? Wiped out of ex-
istence and because of the Republican
parJv's giving over to millionaires the
right to form trusts which, as you know,
soon close the doors of small concerns.
In this way they Cypress the working
man but at every election come to you
with lies on their lips and ask your sup
port. Tbe country has awakened to these
facts and know you will do your share
toward checking the advance of such
party.
THE COAL BILL.
1.-THE only cry of that party in this
State is the coal bill. Do they tell YOU
who composes the coal combine? No;
they dare not. because it is the Republi-
can coal barons of Pennsylvania, John
Wauamaker and John Keap, the very
man they have put in the field as their
Gubernatorial candidate They dare not
tell the truth. They dare not face an ed
ucated public and argue the issues of this
campaign.
"Tnis election is an important one. A
United States Senator is to be elected. and
their man is no less person than that
monopolist, William j. Sewell. Is he a
friend to the workingman? Is any trust
a friend to the laboring man2 Their can
didates are monopolists. and it they
could elect them they would fasten
upon you higher and more
obnoxious tax than they do at present.
We want our Governor; mnst have our
Senator to aid Grover Cleveland; we must
have our Congressman, Senator and As
semblymen. Do not be misled by this
party of misrepresentation, but support
the party that will protect your best in
terests.
"We want reduction OF the tariff on
imports and we must have it. The Re-
puoiican paIty is now onUeaVorlnR 60 IolSG
upon this progressive and most civil
lzed country in the known world a Force
Bill'' which is intended to disfraDchise
Democratic voters in the South Drive
them away from the polls at the point
of IL bayonet. That is one of the plans of
this party and you know and know that
it is one of the most iniquitious measures
ever thought OF. VIII you support such
party? VoJe one and all for the Demo-
cratic party, secure a reduction in
the tax upon the necessities OF life and

with an administration that has been the
rottenest since George Washington was

cratic ticket and its candidates and
