TWO YEARS HAS STRIKE BEEN IN
PROGRESS.

New York, April ia remarE
able strike has just passed its second
anniversary a Monotala, M. Two
years ago the union employees OF
glass company there were called
ont and they are sEill on strike with
the glass bottle blowers asssocla-
ton maintaining busy headquarters
opposite the works. The costs oi
the association have been heavy,
but the men daclare they are de.
termined to win in the end.
There were four hundred strikers,
all placed on the association pay
roll and the leaders say not one has
returned to the factory. The mar-
agement maintains that full staff
is operating the factory and that
the strike does not worry them III
the least.

1t is the duty of the Democratic par
ty to release the country from the grip
of extortionate trusts, which, like the
coal trust and the beef trust, control
the necessaries of life increasing the
cost of living and destroying the pur-
chasing power Of money earned.
It is the duty of the Democratic par
y to eliminate the opportunities of
speculative trusts, like the steel trust
and the shipyard trust, that deceive the
public and take the peoples savings In
exchange for worthless watered stocks.
1t is the duty of the Democratic
party to prevent the recurrence of the
present national situation, in which we
see the wages of tens of thousands Of
workers in one single trust reduced In
order to swell the profits of manipulR-
tors and stock jobbers.
1t is the duty of the Democratic
party to ally itself with the legitimate
business interests of the country, and
with their aid to overthrow the Repub-
lican party, which has sold itself to
the criminal trusts.
None will welcome Democratic sue
cess more gladly than the legitimate
business man, who finds it more and
more difficult to exist under the throt-
Ting influence of the trusts and their
growing control of legislation, money
and opportunity.

To all Democrats and Democratic
leaders Andrew Jackson stands proof
of the value of principle in the win

REASONS
Why our VinOl is the Greatest
Health Restorer and Strength
Creator Known to Medicine.

Because Vinol contains in q concen-
trated form ALL of the medicinal cur
ative elements found in cod liver Oil,
but without a drop Of oil to nauseate
and upset the stomach; therefore,
wherever old-fashioned cod liver oil or
emulsions will do good, Vinol will do
far more good.
Because we have never sold anything
in our store equal to Vinol to restore
health and create strength for old peo-
pie, weak, sickly women and children,
nursing mothers, and after severe
sickness.
vinol cures hacking coughs, chronic
colds, bronchitis, and all throat ana
lung troubles.
A prominent physician writes:
"Vinol is the most palatable and
valuable preparation of cod liver Oil
ever compounded. Inow use it entirely
in all cases where I formerly depended
upon old-fashioned cod liver oil and
emulsions."
Try Vinol on our guarantee to return
your money if you are not satisfied.

National Prosperity
PRINCIPLES of Andrew Jackson. Made
Effective and Permanent. Will Re.
lease Country From Grasp of Greed
and Restore True Democracy, Says
William Randolph Hearst.

Responding to numerous invltatlons
to attend Jackson day celebrations In
various cities of the United States,
William Randolph Hearst, whose du-
ues compelled him to remain In Wash
ington, issued the following address
to the people of the United States:
The name Of Andrew Jackson Will
always stand for fundamental, fear
less and victorious Democracy.
His name is inspiring, especially
worthy of reverence at this time When
the people again encounter an attempt
by unscrupulous wealth to control the
government of the country.
Todays situation resembles, In q
greatly exaggerated form, that with
which Andrew Jackson dealt when our
republic was young.
To realize the work that Jackson
did we must remember that he not
only attacked and destroyed national
danger in his own time, but undoubt
edly put off for many years tna'
growth in the power OF financial cor
ruption which threatens the country
now, This nations development OF In

to the courage and fighting quality
with which Jackson attacked and de

Never in the history of this country
has arrogant, overpowering predator!
wealth been as menacing as 1t Is now
never through the wide exposure OF 1T
methods has it been as thoroughly de
tested as it is now. The criminal trus
issue is the dominating issue in tn
minds of the whole American people.
To deal with the criminal trusts rad
ically, making Of them its great issue
is the duty of the Democracy. Mora
duty demands that the Democrat
party attack and destroy misgoyern

Permanency in useful, effective work
should be the aim Of the Democratic
party. 1t should have constantly In
mind the fact that Jefferson and jack
son, elected ON fundamental Demo
cratic principles, which insured to the
country genuine popular government,
kept the Democracy in power during
the generation that followed them.
Contrast the character and careers
Of Jefferson and Jackson, their vital
influence ON their party, with the CHAR
acter and influence Of any Democrat
elected regardless Of fundamental
principle, living out his few years OF
office-to leave the party stranded and
worse off than before.
The courage Of a Jackson Is needed
in party bound to uphold the rights
Of the majority against the insidious
scheming of lawlessness and corrup
ton. Greater than ever Is the neeC
of such qualities as Jackson possessed
now that money has put itself above
the law more than ever before, menac
ing the peoples rights.
Great issues are never invented OF
created by political leaders. Real Is
sues make themselves, and the trusts
by their growing extortions and den
ance Of law, have made themselVe'

New Iberia enterprise and independent observer. (New Iberia, La.) 1902-1944, 1904-04-16

The duty before the Democracy today
Is to fight the criminal trusts, to cut
| down and root out the evil power of
that predatory wealth that seeks to
supplant government Of the people by
government Of the pocketbook and the
lobby.
The criminal trusts must be destroy
| ed because they menace prosperity.
They menace real prosperity, the pros
perity Of all the people. the prosperous
growth Of the nation under popular
| government.
No man needs to be told how firmly
the trusts have intrenched themselves
In government. These trusts are alb
sorbing more and more the power that
should be the peoples.
Jackson found himself face to face
with the great bank reaching out for
national power. He was told that this
bank claimed frankly the right to a
certain number Of representatives and
| to a certain number of senators in the
| American congress. He answered,
/ with his own peculiar emphasis, that
| lueEt SAiottk III luC NOubt1y SUM- -
governing power outside the govern
ment he would destroy 1t.
And he did destroy it.
How puny was the power, how puny
the representation in congress of that
bank which aroused Jackson's deep
and fatal Indignation!
Any one of a dozen big trusts today
exceeds In power the boasted influence
of that bank. The sugar trust, the beef
trust, the coal trust-any Of the trusts
that need to create legislation or to de,
feat legislation for the convenient rob
bing of the public have their tame
men, their hired attorneys, in office.
, The bank of Jackson's day timidly
claimed the right to a small share II
government, and Jackson killed 1t fol-
its temerity.
What would he say to the swarm Of
trusts today, whose individual ant
combined influence, whose paid or ter
rorized servants, in or out Of office
constitute the governing power in thu
national administration?
IT Jackson was needed in his day
how much more is he needed now
with the fearlessness that made hin
do his duty as he saw it!
New Iberia enterprise and independent observer. (New Iberia, La.) 1902-1944, 1904-04-16

Needless to say, the Democrauc parry |
of the United States, which includes |
able and successful men in all lines Of
effort has never put itself in position |
of hostility to any legitimately acquired
wealth.
Today, as in Jackson's day, the Dem !
ocratic party is q party open to all
American citizens obedient to the laws
and faithful to the constitution, no
matter how poor or no matter how rich
they be.
No Democrat need be reminded that
the ability Of those men who possess
honestly acquired riches is essential to
the nations welfare.
Those who attack indiscriminately or
jealously the rights Of the prosperous
manufacturer, merchant, inventor,
banker or other legitimately successful
men are not Democrats. They are as
blind and stupid in their way as those
| of another class who cry down and at
| tack the rights of the union man who
works with his hands.
The Democratic party, more Willingly
| than any other, recognizes that the men
| who develop the resources of the coun-
| try. the men who create the wealth, the
| men who through executive, organizing
and constructive ability provide oppor-
tunity for effort, employ labor, distrib-
| ute wages and confer benefits upon the
whole community, are those entitled to
large reward, since those who direct
great and legitimate business under
takings are essential to the prosperity
Of the nation.
The promoters of extortionate and
speculatiye trusts do not develop the
resources of the country, but hinder
and restrict development. They do not
create wealth but appropriate the
wealth whif ,thers have created.
They check Gritty by concentrating
wealth in the hands of the few out or
the savings Of the many. They limit
production, they limit opportunity, they
limit the employment of labor and re-
duce the laborer's wage, While tney III
crease the cost of living. They confer
no benefits on the community. The
wealth they possess Is stolen money,
and the laws Of the country should
hold them as public criminals.
Managers of get rich quick trusts
managers of fraudulent trusts-tha'
great tribe of public robbers-are MOI
confounded in any Democrats mine
with the honest men whose superior
ability, industry, patience or inteliec
have brought them legitimate wealth.
The growth and prosperity of tn
United States have merely begun. TIT
nation needs the ablest minds, capable
of wide planning and accomplishment
