various starch companies? Another
advantage was that the least produc-
tive plants could be closed down and
the work done at the more productive
plants. The people of your town have
already seen dlstillery closed down
by the whiskey trust. What Is to pre-
vent the Argo company from being
closed down by the starch trust? When
all the factories belong to one corpora
ton the closing down of one factory
does not bring loss to the corporation,
because the work can be carried on
somewhere else, but the Argo company
as an independent company could not
close down without serious loss there
fore the chances are greater in favor
of the local factory being closed down
under trust than under independent
management. Mr.. Flint also suggested
as another advantage that In case of
local fires or strikes the work could be
done elsewhere without loss. If the
employees of the starch company are
urged to support the trust for fear of
losing their employment. let me re-
mind them of Mr.. Flints speech. The
Argo company as an independent COM
pany could not afford to close down
and turn off its employees. but when
the Argo company becomes q member
OF the National Starch Company the
employees have no way of protecting
themselves because the work here can
be suspended while the employees are
starved into submission
LOSS TO EMPLOYEES.
Under the trust system a strike in
one factory brings no loss to the com
pany. but it does bring great loss to
the employees. Let me give you case
IN point: The Birmingham Age
Herald, of September IL. contained the
following dispatch from Bessemer. Ala:
Work was resumed at the Central
FOUNDRY Company's plant yesterday.
The men who went out on n strike
early last week returned to work on
the company's terms. The manage
ment here is not responsible for the
reduction in wages, 1t having been or
dered by the head office in New York,
the reduction prevailing throughout all
the pipe plants belonging to the COM
pany.'
IF an order comes from the head Of
flee In New York to reduce the wages
in all the starch factories the men
have nothing to do but to submit. The
same greed which leads the trust to
raise prices and eXtort from consumers
Will allow 1t to lower wages and do
Injustice to the employees.
ADVICE TO THE PEOPLE.
"The Attorney General is seeking to
enforce a statute of Nebraska. The
enforced. and the people of Nebraska
City ought to hold mass meeting to
commend him rather than condemn
him. The fusion forces believe in
enforcing both State laws and National
laws against the trusts. The Kansas
City platform demands the annihilation
of all private monopolies, and If the
Democratic ticket Is successful 1 be-
lieve legislation will he enacted which
will make it impossible for the Ma
tional Starch Company to buy, bully
or wheedle' the Argo company into
joining trust and with the dissolu-
ton of the starch trust will come the
dissolution of all other trusts which are
now plundering the people,"
