National prosperity, beyond ali
denial, stimulates industry, which
creates employment. Hence, it
always has and always will create
a demand for labor, which must
increase the wages of workingmen.
Cheaper imported competitive
commodities must destroy national
prosperity and the demand for
labor must decrease in proportion
to the importation, because all
competitive importation suppiants
home production, closes the
avenues Of employment thereby
reducing the rate Of wages.
Of all men the wage Garner is
most interested in creating a
demand for labor, which he can
only secure by having the industry
from which he obtains employment
protected to an extent that will
produce the greatest amount of
employment.
If capital, without which no

1t is reported to us that our
present county clerk was seeking a
loan of $1,000 not long ago,
stating at the same time that his
necessities were Of the most urgent
character. 1t is therefore surmised
that that gentleman is contempla-
ting an early withdrawal from
politics and an engagement in
some more profitable field of
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Enterprise
Neighbor, are you not a little
too searching? In other words are
you not sticking your nose in
other peoples business by publish
ing such items? A man about your
size was looking for a loan OF
81 $50 recently. Is there anything
discreditable about that? Did you
desire to resign iii some official
capicity? When you make note
of such matters you go beyond
the limits of news-gatherer. Why
not make note of all loans? The
readers of your paper will make
up their minds that you are a
little too fresh. Some men have
received sWelled heads as a conse-
quence of such notices. Beware!
Wood County reporter. [volume] (Grand Rapids [i.e. Wisconsin Rapids], Wis.) 1857-1923, 1896-01-16

industry can exist, is not made
secure against the effects ofcheaper
competitive foreign competition, If
will not be employed. Without
the medium of capital there will
be no employment for labor.
The only capital possessed by
the wage Garner is his labor. His
capital increases in proportion to
the demand created. The greater
the demand for employment the
higher will be the rate of wages.
This axiom has held good IN the
past and will hold good for all
time.
If the American workingmen
desire to retain their high rate Of
wages and recover their past
prosperity, they must create for
themselves a demand for labor,
This can only be secured by keep
ing out Or our country the foreign
competitive manufactures, which,
for self preservation, should be
manufactured at home.
It does not lie within the brain
Of mortal man to frame any law
that can determine, for the whole
people, a fixed rate Of wages with
out destroying personal liberty.
The prosperity of every nation is
measured by the prosperity Of
the masses, which is determined
by the rate Of wages they receive
Freedom, personal liberty and
national prosperity cannot continue
when the wage Garner is poor and
dependent.
The Democratic party, and their
allies, who advocate Free-Trade,
claim to be the poor mans friend
and party, a claim most untrue,
for their policy and methods have
always been antagonistic to the
welfare Of the wage Garner and OF
the nation.
The poor man strikes a self
inflicted blow, not only against
himself but against his country,
when he casts his vote for party
whose policy is to advance the
interests Of foreign countries in
stead of those of his own.
Consequently he surrcnders his
franchise to scheming demagogues
who betray his interests in order
to obtain political power or
personal ACKNOWLEDGEMENT, regard
less of the welfare of the nation.

The subject Of "sherihf's bills"
is a hot one for our neighbors and
they dislike a comparison. The
insinuations in regard to other
officials at the court house may
prove too hot for them when it
comes to comparisons. When
you stop and think of recent dem
ocratic county administrations
there has been very poor examples
set. It's all easy matter to charge
wrong do1ngs in an insinuating
way, neighbor, but another thing
