TO SALT RAkERs,

Frank Vincent, candidate, Is IN u
peculiar position, Mr.. Vincent is tho
vice regent In this section Of country

cents George Gould directly as man
ager of bis salt trust, and with this
combination he 10 expected to preach
prosperity the liyelong day Frank
Vincent, preacher, does not sound US
smooth and euphOnious as Frank VIM
cent, candidate, but when Ii Is ex-
planned that the sort OF preaching he
ia expected to do Is In no way connected
with holy writ, II does not seem in
consistent,
But while Mr.. Vincent breaches pros
perity he IL in the peculiar position
of paying the laborers who sweat and
steam and hOll In brine twelve hours a
day. only the same wages that we're
paid under CLEVELAND hard times.
Wages we're cut right after election In
1896, but were restored to Cleveland's
prices after a year or 80. SO that now
while wages Ire better than under the
the first year Of Mckinley prosperity
they are yet only upto the point where
Cleveland left them.
But while the price of labor has re-
NAMED at the same 1t was under Cleve-
land, the price of salt has scared sky
ward. While salt then sold for fifty
cents per hundred pounds. 1t is now
selling at eighty cents per hundred.
Prosperity apparently has really come
to the Hutchinson Kansas Salt Co.
But has 1t brought to the laborer a bet
ter condition? Has Mckinley and
Vincent done as we'll by him as Cleve-
land and Vincent
The laborer only gets the same money

creased the price Of almost everything
