those rights of liberty of the American
people.
What are those rights of liberty?
They are on every side of us, but the
most essential rights are those that
give to the man good wages for his
labor, that he can take to the support
of his home that heloves so well.
Protection gives the prosperity that
the common peope are enjoying today,
and it is the main key to the door OF
the bright and happy homes of the
American people.
Give the wage Garner good wages.
with plenty OF work, and as he is re-
turning to his home in the evening
shades, by the light in the window he
will know that his family are gathered
around bright and cheerful fire, with
smiling faces and pleasant greetings
to welcome him to his home love.
peace and honor.
After his evening meal as the hus.
band or father leans back in his easy
chair, his thoughts will be chow
thankful | am there is no wolf at the
door Of my home tonight. My family
are well fed and well clothed; my
! children can attend school without
the patches that they wore under the
Wilson Bill, created by tariff for
revenue only, or tariff reform, or re-
form tariff; [ don't know how MANY
reforms there are to it. Did it reform
the people much, or did it teach them
how to be saving and not to spend the
money they could not earn?
Voters, do you want to take chance
on this Parker ticket, or do you think
that chance won't do much damage?
There may be great many that will
think the same way, and when the
chances are counted they will be for
the Parker ticket. That says "Pro
! lection, lor high protective tariff, as
they call it, is robbery" That it robs
the many to enrich the few. | say
protection reads right the other way.
1t may rob the few of their greed, but
it will enrich the many who are the
wage earners, and it makes no differ
ence ifyou are producer or a con-
sumer.
The Democrats say that the manu-
facturers are selling steel rails at home
for SOS 90 per ton, abroad for $22. 90 per
ton. Do the wage earners buy steel
rails, or who at home does? Do they
not have to compete in the market
where they ship, with foreign labor?
Does not the price of those steel rails
or any other products that are sold in
the foreign markets come back home
to the trade ofthe American people by
the way of the wage Garner? Is this
not another proof that we should have
protection.
Did Mr.. Davis make his barrel of
money in the State where they claim
he did so much for the people under
the Wilson Bill? Or was it under the
protective tariff created by the Repub-
lican party? Did Mr.. Davis rob the
many to enrich the few? Mr.. Davis
has his barrel, he has no more use for
protection; wishes something else.
Voters, ifyou, by the cross marks of
your pencils on the Sth day of Novem-
Der next, cut the wage earners pay in
two, the wolf will be at the door of his
home, and in his defence he will take
down his rusty hoe and it will grow
bright in the soil Of the land as he
clears it of brush and reeds to raise
those same products that to-day he is
buying of the farmers. He will be.
come a producer.
And to you, young man and wand
erers together round the ballot box on
the Sth day of November next, / would
say ''vote for those homes that YOU
know by the cross marks of your
pencil; from the head to the foot of
the Roosevelt ticket, that gives pro-
lection to all wage earners."
The pittsburgh Post" states that
Mr.. Hill in one of his speeches said
that the common people would do
we'll to follow where Cleveland and
Bryan led. Did not the common peo.
pie follow where Cleveland led a few
years ago? Did they do well? And
did not the common people turn to the
Republican party to help them out of
their woes?, which they cheerfully did.
Why should they not when the Re-
publican party was made up out of the
nations woes?
To go back fifty years the voter
must have courage and be ''chuck"
full of woes to vote the Fremont ticket
The Republican party has carried them
on to Lincoln and on through years.
till to day they rest on the broad
shoulders of this man of great moral
courage, Roosevelt, at the head of
the Republican ticket; soldier and
leader of men and teacher of children.
They call him the rough rider. How
quick he would leap into his saddle
and with his ready blade defend the |
homes of the American people.
Voters, protection is your nav |
