at was about three years ago, only
short time after the Democrats took the
reins of Government in hand, he SAID,
that we were obliged to shut down our
large planing-mill at Port Blakeley, Puget
Sound. A large mill at Bowens Landing,
Humboldt County, owned by another
firm, shut down about the same time.
The cause of it all was lack of protection.

CENTRE who maChinist years.

HENRY a. MCINTYRE, who has been q
to the point when he was asked why he
is going to vote for Mckinley. Last time
1 voted the Democratic ticket for Presi-
dent. had an idea that the Democrats
could give US a better share of prosperity;
more work by building up the foreign
markets for American manufactures; bet
ter wages resulting from greater demand
for labor. l cannot see how the policy or
the application OF the policy of the Demo-
Gratis has helped US. We are worse off in
stead of having our condition improved,
and in this L and many thousands of
others have undoubtedly been disap-
pointed in our expectations. No one has
been helped who works for wages. No
one who works for wages is going to be
helped by Democratic success. 1t is en-
tirely fair to reason that way in view of
that which has, we know, already hap
pened and is now happening 1 think
that we want protection. That is the
first and real issue of this campaign, the
main thing, in fact. No workingman can
successfully dispute the statement that
protection ought to and must benefit him.

only to hide the real protection

Democrats have had their President for
four years. They lauded him when he
went in, they praised his methods of
handling the different questions that arose

silence. 1t was the lull before the storm.
