THE DEMOCRATIC BADGE.
A Solid Plea for tho Furtherance 81
Trust Interests.


Trust Interests.
President Cleveland's appeal for
"the genuine democratic badge" In
his letter TO Chairman Wilson, is al
most mockery OF the working men
and farmers OF the United States, who
now more generally than ever before
display "the genuine democratic
badge" every time they remove their
coats, or the wind blows their coat
tails awry. Here is the sentence in
the letter TO Chairman Wilson In which
he appeals for the continuation OF
1.-THE genuine democratic badge" upon
the seat of the trousers OF every farmer,
coal and iron miner, and laboring man
In the north:
IT must be admitted that no tarin measure
can accord with democratic principles or prom
ises ana bear the genuine democratic badge
that does not provide for free raw materials"
That sentence was preceded by the
following assertion of the pledges
made by the democratic bosses To tho
monopolies and trusts and combines:
I'VE have ia our platform ana every way
possible declared In favor OF the free importa-
lion on raw materials. We again and again
and our manufacturers as soon MS the demo-
cratic party was invested with power TO deter
