Republican Audacity

The republican managers of this
campaign have again ref1cted to the
same tactics as Were employed in
1896 and 1900 TO coerce the laboring
man to vote the republican ticket.
When it became apparent that the
laboring vite of Indiana, Ohio aud
New York, three of the greatest man.
ufacturing states in the Union, was
solidly aligned for Bryan, the order
went out from republican headquar-
ters to the heads of - great manu-
featuring establishments that some
thing must be done.
Immediately thereaftsr there APP
peared on the walls and doors of clos
ed factories and shops. factories and
shops that had shut down within the
last year during republican rule, this
placard.
This factory will resume within
ten days after the election OF William
II. Taft
Reports were also circulated among
the laborers that great contracts had
been signed but containing the pro-
viso, void If the country goes demo-
cratic"
When the party managers can find
tools among the manufacturers they
induce them to threaten reduction of
wages or cessation of industry unless
the republican ticket shall be elected.
The audacity of such performances
by a party whose reign has brought
or permitted financial and industrial
catastrophe, is superb. 1t is the limit
of human achievement in that line,
and Is entitled 10 the medal over all
competitors.
1t is based upon the theory that the
American laborer is a chattel slave
and can be bought or driven to do
the bidding of his master, whe ther he
so desires or not. In other words. the
republicans would have the laborers

that great political landslide to-

In the large cities MONDAY meetings
are being held every day and busi-

John II. Atwood. chairman of the
national democratic speakers bu-
reau. Mr. Atwood is himself an ora
