under the hypocriticaI cry Of protection
for labor"
Give American manufacturers free
raw material and they can easily
eclipse all European rivals. They need
no i from -paternalism and have no
cause or reason to ask for a protective
tariff tax to rob" the people for their
own ungracious and selfish interests.
One authority says:
1.-The iron and steel corporations are
another example of the tenacity with
which overgrown and tariff -fattened in
dustries cling to the benefits they have
been able TO obtain from an always
willing congress. FTom the raw iron to
the finished machine they produce &C
cording TO their own statement at less
cost in labor than the most advanced
competing nations can do. Still they
insist on the continuance of the whole
d the bountiful protective rate"
At another time We will resume the
consideration Of the tariff question of
so s Importance TO the burden
bearers. They must be taught how they
arc robbed by the unconscionable
tariff lords.

most people think. A torpid liver and

follow such symptoms. DeWitt's
Little Early Risers remove all danger
by stimulating the liver, opening the
bowels and cleansing the system of
impurities. Safe pills. Never grippe.

Risers for torpid liver every spring for
