Fer many years it has been supposed tina.

The Republican Campaign Book
is a document with many mis-
statements claiming its party has
teen instrumental il the passage
Of every act that has proven OF
benefit to the people. That the
voters may know of some of these
claims and in order to place these
statements where they belong in
the category Of falsehoods we re-
fer our readers to their claims to
the rural free delivery enactments
and furnish an authentic expose,
In making this misstatement the
party campaign managers have
hope of gaining favor with the
farmers, and in some measure
palliate the effect Of vicious legls-
lation that has brought hardship
to them. The facts show that the
farmers interests were ignored in
legislative acts offered by Repub-
licans PERTAINING to free delivery,
and that the clause and enact.
ment which resulted in free de-
livery outside Of towns was intro
duced by Democrats.
There was no rural free delivery
prior to 1892. Postmaster-Gen-
eral Wanamaker had recommend
ed its extension to smaller cities
and villages, but had not recon-
mended tree delivery to the farm
ing communities.
The first suggestion Of that kind
was proposed by the Hon. L. F
Livingston, Democratic member
from the State of Georgia, when
he offered the folio wing amend
ment to the Post Office Appro-
priation Bill, on June ~, 1892:

A FORETASTE.

The North and East have had a
holy horror of the mob violence
in the South, and more particular
ly in relation to the negro rape
hends who receive speedy punish
ment without waiting for judge or
jury. But now in these latter
days the negro in the North and
East. where he has sought pro-
lection from feigned friends and
because he would earn his living
by the sweat Of his brow accep-
ting rejected positions Of the white
man is swung off into eternity.
What's the matter with these
grieved friends. II for so slight a
provocation the negro receives so
violent punishment in the North
what would become Of the race
when the crime of rape has been
committed as in the South. The
North is getting only a foretaste
of what is sure to follow il the
negro continues to live there.

yield principles for position.
No one ever heard OF Roose-
Welt as protectionist until he be-
came a candidate for Vice Presi-
dent, and now for President. He
stands on the Republican platform
pledged for protection, which
makes the rich richer at the ex-
pense OF the masses. Mr.. koose-
Welt should talk on the tariff and
protection doctrines. We give
some of this gentleman's record;
He joined free-trade club in
New York and continued his mem
hsrship during al the time he was
a member OF the assembly and UNI
til after the nomination of James
G. Blaine in 1884.
In the Life Of Thomas H. Ben
ton, Author Roosevelt writes,
among other things, in regard to
the tariff as follows:
political economists have
pretty generally agreed that pro-
lection is vicious in theory and
harmful in practice; but if the
majority Of the people in interest
wish it, and it affects only them
selves, there is no earthly reason
why they should not be allowed
to try the experiment to their
hearts content. The trouble is
that it really does affect only them
selves. and in 1898 the coil was
peculiarly aggravated on account
of the unequal way in WHICH the
proposed law would affect different
sections. Itpurported tolbeneft'
the rest Of the country, but it un-
donbtedly- worked real injury to
the planter States, and there is

Again in 'speaking Of 1.-the tariff,
he says: ~ fsh Z
"In 1928 the tariff, whether it
benefited the country as a 8 whole
or not, unquestionably harmed
the South, and in a federal union
it is most unwise to pass. laws
which shall benefit one part Of the
community to the hurt Of another
part, when the latter receives no
compensation"
In commenting upon the speech
of Clay in defense of a protective
tatiff, Author Roosevelt says:
"Clay's assertions as to what
the tariff has done for the West
were equally i'll founded, as Ben
ton showed in a good speech
wherein he described picturesque
ly enough the industries and gen
eral condition Of his portion of the
country, and asserted, with truth,
that its revived prosperity was
due to its own resources, entirely
independent of Federal aid or
legislation.
