HIGH OLD FREE TRADE PETRo-
LEUM.
Petroleum is now the highest in price
during the last quarter OF a century. But
this giant, grinding combine being
thorough free trade burden, why. OF
course IL must be a great blessing. Well,
tbs In a horn.
REPUBLICANS CARRY MASSACHU-
SETS CITIES.
good lesson may be learned by the
fact that IL Of the 10 Massachusetts cities
have Just gone Republican. including the
two Socialist cities OF Haverhill and
Brockton, and this political landslide
right on the heels of 10 per cent cut
cotton plant help. IL simply SHOWS AZ
plainly as the sun I'm an unclouded sky
that the great campaign OF education re-
gardng protection and free trace mas
performed It's perfect work among tens
OF thousands more wage earners In the
old Bay state The great free trade
cotton combine not only cut wages, oW
will undoubtedly curtail employment; In
fact the common people are tired TO
death with the free trade swindle tarlHs
whose chief aims are to iurnish thinss
cheap for moneyed men and rob bread
winners OF employment and cut wages.
And we wage earners see clearly thatput
for our protective tarir there would be
a great panic today and four million
laborers would be out of work, tramp
ing our streets in vain for a Job Haver-
hill and Brockton were not lost by teach
ing socialism as the synonym OF the COM
mon brotherhood OF man; but by Just
such ulscalled or counterfeit socialists
as our mistaken brother Dr. w X. OF
Providence who seems 10 think IL a
crime for lifelong advocate OF wage
earners 10 preach the unsearchable
riches OF the gospel OF work and wages
and the God-given right OF every needy
bread winner 10 employment and fair
paw. He seems TO think that 10 those
with money could only purchase foreign
goods cheaper II would be a great bless
ing. though four million wage earners
were robbed OF employment and fourteen
millions more were working FOR about
half their present pay. THESE are the
counterfeit socialist politics that lost
Hayerhill and Brockton which facts
learned on my recent visit to Brockton.
UNCLE SANS MARINES.
Another lesson may be easily learned
by the curious fact that 20 United states
marines neld IN CntNk anu 'uA
neuyred $50 Colombian troops. And
venture the opinion that In case OF war
a single regiment OF 1000 Of Uncle Sans
soldiers could march through Colombia
from north to south then through from
east to west with the loss OF less than
100 men Killed and wounded. There are
no troops on the face of the earth that
can successfully face an equal number
OF our soldiers. Let US therefore thank
God and take courage when we consider
that America stands for Peace on
earth and good will to men" | repeat
once more what said after the Franco
PrusSian war There viii never be an
other great war.' The spirit OF ourDivine
Master In conquering the world and shall
vet bring in worldwide righteousness.
which is but another name for the
brotherhood OF all mankino. Let the
whole earth rejoice. let the sea roar with

why doesn't President Roosevelt tell
the friends OF Senator Fairbanks what he
Is going to DO for them. and stop that
anti Roosevelt movement In Indiana? ?
He can do it."--Galveston News.
Because an OK never complains Of ny
on his horn.
There may have been inequalities and
difficulties experienced under the Wilson
tarifr. but that tariff measure certainly
did not offer n premium on the importa-
ton OF foreign manufactured wares by
the high tax that II imposed upon i'm
ported raw materials. Boston Herald
True. the old Wilson humbug tariff
turned two million wage earners out of
employment by shutting down cotton and
wooden plants and western farmers were
deprived OF half OF their best market;
but then those poor bread winners and
unfortunate farmers were Of no con-
sequence compared with those with
money to buy foreign fabrics cheap.
