THE FULL DINNER PAIL

The Republicans seem to depend IN
their c7mpaiens ON some twaddle |
some argument to influence voters |
In the last campaign it was FREE
coinage b. International agreement
This false pretense deceived great |!
many intelligent voters who cast Their |
ballots for Mckinley in the full be-
lief that his election meant free coin
age
When they find the party declaring
unequivocally for the gold standard
they see how deliberately they have
been tricked.
This year the Republican mana gers
have started the cry of "a fn., DR. ner
pail" as slogan for the forces y; the
Administration to mtrr1 Ahdv.. It
simply means that tue kenublicaL
party considers that I. working man
must be content with vases t.lat fiji
his dinner pail.
It implies that YOU must work for
your board when you slave for the
trusts, and having thus shaved, be
content with your lot in life end vote.
for tie party that lostsrs and perpet-
yates the trusts.
Now, this is a doctrine that will
not for an instant deceive the most
ignorant voter. The cry Of "interna-
tional agreement" fooled many per
sons we'll informed, but no man is so
green that does not realize that the
wages that merely fills his stomach.
and leaves nothing with which to
clothe and educate his family, is not
the wages for an American citizen.
But the worst part of the full din
ner pail" cry is that i, is even more
false. although not as lelusive as the
masquerade in the last campaign.
The Republican party does not fill
the dinner pail OF the working man.
The trusts have raised the price of
everything and the all cannot afford
to be full. In the coal regions where
the big strike is in progress, the
Flour Trust had raised the price OF
-four from s. S a bag to S2.75.
The Sugar Trust had raised sugar
from S cents to cents pound.
The Standard Oh! Company HAD
raised oil from twelve cents to fifteen
cents gallon.
The Wollen Trust had raised the
price of clothing IS per cert.
The price of sardines had beer
nearly doubled. The Beef Trust ha6
raised the poorest grade of beef FROM
twelve cents to sixteen cents a pound
soup meat from nine cents to fourteen
cents pound, veal from twelve cents
to sixteen cents pound; ham from
eleven cents to fifteen cents a pound
The Cracker Trust had raised tn
price of crackers from five cents
pound to ten cents po,.nd-ius
double
The Shoe and Leather Trust ha
increased the cost Of shoes about 3
per cent.
The Rubber Trust had caused mir
ers' rubber boots. which were sold
year ago for So rs, to be sold now fc
S3.25.
So it was with brooms and kitche
utensils and wire and nails.
Tea has risen from forty to fit
cents a pound, coffee from nine to 81,
teen cents pound; condensed mil
has increased in cost more than !
per cent; lard has jumped from 81
to twelve cents pound, and tobace
from twenty eight to thirty eigl
cents pound.
