A Patriot c Speech [.

A Patriot Speech.
 To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 Who can make a patriotic speech tn- side of five minutes, that will give food for the brain and delight the heart?
 Immediately after the passage of the Wilson bill MT. Wilson prepared for his journey to England. Had the Wilson bill passed as reported by him he could have had the honor to kiss Victoria s hand, but with the bill as amended he was dined and wined.
 Had Mckinley gone to England he would have been treated as a traitor.
 The notorious Benedict Arnold was received in England as a patriot Had the illustrious George Washington gone to England he would have been treated as a traitor. &
 Now, if you vote the democratic tick ct you vote for Benedict Arnold; if you vote the republican ticket you vote for the illustrious George Washington, the father that freed your country from the tyranny of kingcraft.
 Vote democratic and you vote for starvation wages; vote the republican ticket and you vote for protection to home industry and happiness at your fireside. LII. Freedman.
