AN UNAMERIcAN POLICY.


1t Is a noticeable fact that Democratic
hopes of improved business are based up
on Increased imports" of foreign made
goods. OF course, the more we import
the less of THAT class of goods are made
here. We rob workingmen of employ
ment they ought to have and ourselves Of
money we ought to keep in this country.
In saying this we do not overlook the
free trade contention that If we buy
more foreign made goods we pay for
them by increased exports of our ouwn
But we deny the proposition. Europeans
do not buy our food products unless they
need them, and II they need them they
buy them anyhow, but never more than
They need. Food they must have. With
US the condition Is different. We pro-
duce our own food. The things we buy
abroad are mainly manufactured pro-
ducts. as silks, laces, jewelry, and other
iuxuries made by labor paid less wages
Uhan paid to American artisans. 1t Is to
the interests OF the importers 10 buy
