Pouper Wages.

One OF the first and most stiking
features of a republican prosperity
prosperity is the inauguration of
pauper wages among American work
men. We have heard good deal
first and last about the pauper wages
in Europe, but before the end of Mr..
McKinley's administration we shall
see them fastened on the wage-earners
of the country in every sphere of
labor.
Aud it is not slow process, Dur
ing the past four years the work of
reduction has been going on every
where. At first, it went on in an
indirect wsy. Men were discharged,
hours we're cut down, but wages
remained the same. But this was
not satisfactory to the gold god.
1t demanded more. Consequently
more men were discharged, and the
hours further shortened. But this
was not enough. Wages had to be
reduced, and the reduction has been
going on steadily. Wage-earners
cannot help themselves. The gold
god has them in his mighty grip.
Another manifestation is in the
growth of trusts and combines. The
owners of the gold god are taking
timely advantages of their power to
"feenance" certain industries and
mold them into one. Under the gold
regime, competition is too deadly.
Small capitalists must go out of
business or become a part of trust.
All this is going on before the
peoples eyes. lis called republican
prosper ity. 1t is only one of many
deadly phases of McKiuleyism.
The workiugmen OF the country
are directly responsible for AL these
things They whooped it up for the
gold god and his adberents, and now
they are pay ing dearly for it. And
they have only be gun TO pay!-At.
