A Tariff Speech in Brief.
the FL Dor. do fpnIhiican

We still hold 10 tie opinion that not
one dollars worth of foreign goods or
produce should be permitted to land on
American shores, if it is possible to
manufacture or produce the same article
in our country. National and indi-
vidual wealth cannot be increased by
sending our gold TO foreign nations and
purchasing their products. The quality
of craftsmanship is wisest tina; con-
structs tariff laws that have for their
purposes the utilization of our great
natural resources and employment OF
our own labor.

the plea of insanity to escape tho pen

asylum rather than in Office.

cowardly preachers who haven't got
moral courage TO preach PopuIist politics
from your puIpits, will find your audi

will be left to saw wood for a living"
But the people stand by the preachers
and go back on Mollie's advice to raise
less corn and more hell" Soon the
stock of jays will be exhausted and Mol
lie will be saving wood.
