The Democratic party has pledged it

The people know what they have got,

The people know that under the Protec-

manufacturing industries of the United
States have been increased far beyond
any precedent. They know that addi-
tionai employment has been found for
tens of thousands of working people.
They know that the wages of the peo-
pie have been higher than ever before
paid in this country. They know that
there has been no increase in the cost oil
living during the operations OF the
Mckinley act but that, on the contrary
there has been Il decrease III many re-
spects. They know, moreover, that any
change in the Tariff, such as has been
promised by the Democratic party, and
to which it is publicly pledged, will be
and must be in the direction of larger
importation of foreign goods.
Such change as this means one OF
two things. The American wage-earn-
ers must either be content to give their
labor for less money in order that goods
of American manufacture may still be
able to compete with foreign goods
made with cheap foreign labor, or else
our factories must be closed and oul
working people unemployed, while we
continue to patronize foreign manufac'
