 The Democratic campaign book which will be issued in few days advance nroofS of which have jus been received here, Is severe arraign' ment of Republican methods and poll cies.
 Considerable space Is devoted to thu trusts and to the preesnt tariff undei whose fostering care these commer' cial combinations have fiourished ane thrived until they have become a men ace to the American public.
 The facts set forth in the campaign document are bolstered up with figures which leave no room for doubt and which prove conclusively that the peo- pie of the United States are today be- ing, fieeced to a finish by the trusts which are enabled by reason of the Dingley tariff to charge them more foi American made goods than foreigners have to pay for the same articles.
 The campaign book opens with the statement that during the year ending June 30, 1904. the sale of American manufactured products to foreigners amounted to s452.0O0,000. of which fully S5 per cent, according to the es- inmates of well-informed exporters, was sold at cheaper prices than were charged for precisely the same goods when sold to Americans.
 Cheaper Abroad Than Here.
 The average price of these goods in the foreign market was 20 per cent. less than the selling price in the home market, Cn some goods, such as paints and varnishes, the difference between the price to foreigners and to Americans was only per cent, but on agricultural implements, tools, ma chimes and hardware, the difference in the price to the foreigners and to the American varied from 10 to 50 per cent: on wire. cartridges, playing cards and other articles the difference was more than 100 per cent, aud on such articles as wire rope and borax the difference exceeded 200 per cent.
 Were there nothing else to condemn the Republican policy of high tariff tax" the campaign book states. this one fact ought to be sufficient to cause the American people to repudiate 1t, for surely nothing can be more unjust than for the American Government to tax It's own people to the end that American steel rails. blows. shoes and other articles of prime necessity may be sold cheaper to the people of Japan. Europe and foreign countries gener- dlly lHdH they are SOlu at nome to Americans"
 Steel Trusts Profits.
 During the first thirty three months of it's existence. the steel trust made, it Is charged. the profits of $327, ,000, 900, an average of $119, ,00O, 900 year, or $10,000.000 a month, $500, 900 day and $30,000 an hour for a day ftcn hours. It Is next pointed out how the trusts sought to conceal from the American people the prices at which trust-made goods were sold to foreigners. In this connection the campaign book states
 To obtain foreign trade, 1t is of course, necessary for the trusts to ad- vertise their export prices In journals with strictly foreign circulation. So unwilling are the trusts to have this feature of their business known to the public, that they use every means to prevent their export trade journals which circulate only in foreign coun- tries, containing their lists of export prices. from falling into the hands of American buyers. In 1902 the Demo- cratic Congressional Committee offered a reward of $l00 for one of these ex- port price journals. and endeavored to insert an advertisement to this effect in several prominent New York pa pers.
 Feared to offend Trusts.
 Fearing to offend the trusts. these papers refused to publish the adver- tisements. The New York World. however. published the offer. and the Committee a last succeeded in ob- taining several copies of export jour nals. In the present year. the Na- tional Democratic Committee has not only procured several copies of export journals published in America for ex-
 
 also employed an expert familiar with all the ins and outs of the export bus mess who has visited the selling of fees of exporting manufacturers and obtained from them in their own handwriting many of the export prices"
 Here follows long list of articles of trust manufactures with the domes- tic and foreign prices. the domestic prices exceeding the foreign prices by 10 to 25 per cent and in some cases by 100 per cent
 The campaign book takes up and considers export prices on American manufactured goods such as tools. utensils and other wares and goods, the man furnishing the list of prices having been connected with well known exporting house for more than twenty years. The difference between the home and export prices show con clusively that the home consumer gets the worst of the bargain. accoi ding to the differences in discounts. The cam paign book also punctuates the pre- tended investigation of export prices made by the industrial commission and conclude by quoting from official re- ports to show that the iron and steel trusts have been rebuked by Republt- cans.
 AccompanyinG the advance proofs is the following letter from Judge Parker to George F. Parker, chief Of the lit erary department, cautioning him to say nothing that would reflect on Pres ident Roosevelt;
