democrats that they can favor q duty

products Of American labor.
Trusts.
"We, in sympathy with the admin
istration of President Roosevelt, stand
unalterably opposed to trusts and
combinations Of capital intended to
restrain trade, stife competition,
artifically enhance prices or limit the
scope Of individual effort and in this
connection we call the special atten.
ton ofNthe electors of Montana to the
contrast between the eight years Of
servile subsection to trusts and com
b%inations by the Cleveland admins
tration as compared with the vigor-
Gus, fearless and uncompromising ex-
ecution of the law under the admin
istration of President Roosevelt. The
same laws were upon the statute
books during the Cleveland admins
tration that were found upon the
statute books by Theodore Roosevelt.
Cleveland was inactive, inert and sub
servient to corporate combinations
and trusts; Roosevelt has invoked
the law and the spirit of the law for
the suppression Of unlawful trusts
and combinations and we call upon
the people of Montana by their votes
to approve his course in this behalf.
The Tariff.
I'VE are unalterably opposed to
any revision Of the protective tariff
by the free trade democracy, but we
favor such> revision of the tariff as

Roosevelt we desire to call especial
attention to the fact that he is tho
first president Of the United States

I'VE approve the policy inaugural

Roosevelt for the uplifting
Of AL the inhabitantk of all the pos
sessions acquired Wy the United
States as the result Of the war with
Spain and we call upon the people Of
Montana to condemn and resent by

democratic senators and politicians
