"The Struggling Middle Classes"


The New York Commercial whose
animosity towards organized labor is
second only in intensity to its zeal
to the cause of the stand-patters, is
telling some important truths relative
to the situation confronted by many
people in New York and other cities
1t asserts that in the metropolis to-
day uncounted thousands Of managers,
accountants, clerks, solicitors, engi-
neers, professional men and small
traders are. engaged in struggle to
make both ends meet" that the
marked and very general advance in
wages has raised the cost of living
enormously, and that the salaries and
the incomes Of these middle-class
workers have not been advanced at all.
Like most Republican newspapers
and speakers, the Commercial does not
put the blame for the increased cost
of living where it belongs-upon the
Republican party, which made the
Dingley tariff law, which is the moth
er of trusts, which now charge us mo-.
nopoly prices-but upon that portion
of the strugglers who belong to trades
unions, and who, during the last two
years, made some unsuccessful at
tempts to have their wages increased
somewhat in proportion to the in
creased cost of living. Just listen to
this good Republican paper while it be.
rates organized labor:
THE time is ripe for them to array
themselves against organized labor, to
stand shoulder to shoulder with the
employers who are now organizing for
resistance to the aggressions of the
labor unions. UniOnism is fattening
on their misery. How long will they
endure it,"
If the workingmen know their own
interests they will this year vote with
the party that is striving to reduce
tariff duties and to thus greatly Grip
pie the trusts and lower the cost of liv-
ing. This will not only virtually raise
wages indirectly, but it will lead to
greater consumption and production OF
goods. This means more demand for
workers. and therefore higher wages.
Workingmen, think of these things
before you cast your votes this year.

| ton, for the labor leaders are strong
ly opposed to any Chinese immigra-
ton, and the labor vote must be con-
ciliated until after election. after
election always after election; the
usual procrastination on important
matters that politically cut two ways.
How will labor fare after election at
the hands of the Republican politi-
clans, when the business interests are
demanding the open door in China?
Will the interest Of the workingman
and his anxiety for Chinese exclusion
be considered after election, when even
now the eight-hour bill, the anti-in-
junction legislation and other measures
favorable to labor are hung up in
committees by the Republican leaders
in Congress?
The trusts and corporations always
hold the whip hand over Republican
Congress. and any measures of relief
for labor or reform of abuses fare
badly at the most prOpitious times, and
much worse after election.
Official Grating.
Over one hundred Republican men,
bers of the House Of Representatives
are in peck Of trouble over the pub
licatiOn of House Report No. 1895,
which contains the report issued by
the Post Office Department, charging
grating against many of them. The
unparliamentary language used by
such leaders as GrosvenOr, of Ohio;
Hill, of Connecticut, and others against
Assistant Postmaster General Bristow
was certainly unnecessary if those
members were innocent of wrongdOing
Innocent men do not need to explain
their conduct in that way.
The fact that the Republican party
refused to allow a thorough investiga-
ton of all the departments Of the
Post Office, which was demanded by
the Democrats, also has an ugly look
ON the face Of it.
So far but one department of the
Post Office has been investigated, and
that by its own officials. If the other
branches are free from taint, why do
the Republicans refuse to allow them
to be investigated by a committee COM
posed of both Republicans and Demo-
Gratis?
The select committee which is to in
vestigate the charges made in the re-
port above mentioned is intended to
be a whitewashing affair, to put as
good a face as possible on what is
evidently an ugly matter.
As nominations for Congress are
now being made and the campaign for
election will soon be under way, over
100 Republican members are on the
anxious seat, and unless they can be
given a clean bill of health are likely
to meet disaster when the voters try
their cases this fall. 1t certainly looks
like the Democrats would walk away
with majority of the next House Of
Representatives.

State Rights Not Hit.
Replying in detail for the securities
company, Justice Harlan said that the
contention that the law is an interfer-

States by which the companies are in
corporated was not well founded. In
Sucn cases, ne SAID, the autnorlty OF Con-
gress is supreme. He declared it to be
unnecessary to determine the right of
owners of railroad stock to sell the prop
erty. Nor was it true, he added, that
the right of the securities company
own and hold railroad stock is the OF
question involved. Such contentious are
wide Of the mark-mere men of straw.
All that the government complains of is
the existence of corporation to repress
commerce, and it is not concerned with
the other points.
Justice Harlan said that in this
day there should be no doubt Of
the complete power Of Congress to
control interstate commerce. All ap-
propriate means might be resorted to for
that purpose. All the prior trust cases

Tax and Trust-Ridden,

When you hear Republican saying
there is no need to reform the tariff,
ask him why the rates in the Dingley
bill-the present tariff law-were
made so much higher than the Nc
kinley law, which was higher than
any other previous tariff. The fact
that the rates are higher now than
ever before would seem TO demand re-
form.
1t was admitted by Senator Dolli-
yer, of Iowa, in Il speech in the Sen
ate, that the rates We're purposely in
creased to allow for reductions that
might be made in reciprocity treaties
with foreign countries. Mr.. Kasson
was selected by President Mckinley
to negotiate reciprocity treaties, and
he did so with France, Nicaragua, Ec-
uadOr, Argentina and the British and
Danish West Indies
But the Republican leaders in the
United States Senate refused to allow
those treaties to be ratified, and the
Dingley law rates have continued to
be paid by the people of the United
States without the small concessions
that the reciprocity treaties would
have made on some articles. And yet
the Republican national platform of
1900 contained these words:
Reciprocity and protection are twin
measures Of Republican policy and go
hand in hand" The Iowa State plat
form of 1901 said: I'VE indOrse the
policy of reciprocity as the natural
complement of protection and urge its
development as necessary to the reali-
zation of our highest commercial pos
sibilities." And that tariff plank closed
with this important declarations: I'VE
favor any modification of the tariff
schedules that may be required to pre-
vent their affording shelter to mo-
nOpoly."
Nearly every State Republican plat
form has declared for reciprocity, and
some of them declared for such mOdi-
fications of the tariff schedule as may
seem to be required. The Idaho Re-
publican platform of 1902 declared out
SDOhtDly iCNisiOh ttio eOiA-
tained the most radical antitrust plank
that any political party has declared
for. 1t says: I'VE favor revision
of the tariff without unreasonable de-
lay. which will place upon the free
list every article and product con-
trolled by any monopoly and such 9TH
er articles and products as are be-
yOnd the need of protection"
In spite of these declarations and
promises made by the Republicans,
President Roosevelt and the leaders
in Congress have determined to not
even consider the tariff, or attempt to
modify those schedules that give the
trusts their monopoly Of the market
for many of the necessaries of life.
The Republicans refuse to ratify the
reciprocity treaties of their own max
ing, and they refuse to reduce the
Dingley rates, although they purposely
placed those rates much higher than |
the protected trusts asked, that when
the reciprocity treaties were ratified |
the trusts and combines would still be ]
amply protected But the trusts con-
trolled the Republican leaders and
have been strong enough to keep the
law intact, and the protectionists de-
clare it must not be touched.
Thus we are tariff taxed and trust |
ridden. Ask your Republican neigh
Dor how he likes this do-nothing pro-
gram of his party and if he thinks his
is enhanced by it. i
