to the policies which have made the
United States the greatest of nations
Sand Michigan one of the brightest
stars in the galaxy of states He
has rightfully believed that the
American citizen is the especial care
OF congress and that congressional
charity should begin at home before
exploiting costly free trade philan-
throphy beyond the far-off seas.
The newspapers which have been
most vicious in their abuse of Mr..
Fordney have been opponents of'free
trade, free riot and free sandbag-
ging of the employers of American
labor. At least one of them has
openly advocated free plumber of
farmers by means of the Henry
George single tax idea Some of
them have advocated the grotesque
and populistic initiative which would
change our constitution oftener than
a New York member OF society's
"four hundred" changes her party
gown.
Mr.. Fordney has never mistaken
sensationalism for progression, or
yellow journalism for reform. That
is why he has ably served every citi-
zen of his district who has saved an
honest dollar, or who is trying to
earn one In the words OF a distin-
guished Democrat at the Denver
convention when the mob was yell.
ing for free trade, free riot, and
free plumber of capital: "There is
no room in the Democratic party for
the man who has earned and saved
a dollar" There are hundreds of
Democrats in the eighth district who
will vote for Taft and Fordney this
year, because they want their dollar
guarded and they know, that Taft
and Fordney will work hand in hand
to guard it. The issue this year is
more business and less buncombe,
and Taft and Fordney are for bust
ness which employs labor and fills
the dinner pail.

of the Club was Henry ]. Patterson
above named. and the persons who
originally passed the paper to cali
the first meeting were George F.
Marvin, for many years a leading
Democrat of st. Johns, now deceas-
ed, Henry j. Patterson, long a Dem
ocrat and the man>above named, and
Henry Walbridge, Sr., who ran for
Prosecuting Attorney on the Demo
cratic ticket in 1896 against Will H.
Brunson, and who defeated said
Brunson.
j. w. Fitzgerald was chairman of
the, Executive Committee of the
Club. Two other members of the
Executive Committee were M. N.
Duncan at that time a Democratic
Justice Of the Peace, and the man
at whose Office the Silver Club was
organized, and George S. Corbit, who
for about forty years conducted the
Democratic newspaper in st. Johns,
and who was in 1896 conducting a
Democratic newspaper, the Clinton
Independent at st. Johns. While
that paper was called the Clinton
Independent at that time, it was a
Democratic paper of the most viru-
lent type from the time of its or
ganization. 1t has changed its name
to the Clinton Democrat.
From records which were obtain
able it was absolutely proven that
Mr.. Fitzgerald was defeated for dele
gate to both the county and state
convention in that memorable year,
1896, that Mr.. Fitzgerald did sign
the resolutions referred to. and that
the city funds were transferred to
the bank of which he is cashier af-
ter the Republican candidate for city
treasurer was defeated last spring.
1t was also shown that few months
ago he wrote a public letter oppos-
ing the candidacy of Gov Warner
with whom he has been campaigning
in Tuscola county this week. These
were the main facts in the communi-
cation to the Bay City Tribune, and
It would seem that they were true as
given.

Free Trades Banquet OF Bones.
From the Saginaw Exponent, the Statt

labor organ,)
Emel Heyn, of Heyn's Bazaar, {
prominent citizen of Detroit, has JUS
returned from Europe, and here are
some of the things he tells the De-
troit News: con my nine weeks
trip, most all my time was spent in
Carlsbad, that famous watering
place in Bohemia, on the borders OF
! Saxony. I took a run into other
sections of Germany, to Dresden, in
Saxony, for example, but everywhere
I went | saw the same serious condi-
ton of labor
Twenty cents day for ordinary
labor is the prevailing price. Weav-
ing is a skilled trade, and yet that is
all the weavers are paid for a days
work. Families are large: that is,
the families of working people, and
everybody in the family works,
They would starve, otherwise, for
the cost of living is as high there, as
here, with the exception Of rents.
Servants are paid from $40 to
SIS a year, the latter being the high
est salary lOr the pest.
Starting in at hard work-work
of kind that is done by man in the
United States-the working women
at thirty are as old looking as are
working women here at so or 60.
Everywhere dogs and women are
seen together drawing heavy loads in
carts. Women load themselves with
great bundles of faggots, which is
about the only kind of fuel they are
able to buy women aid in the
building trades; women unload cars;
and act as longshoremen; women in
the hotels get no wages, existing
solely on tips"
No, gentle reader, the above story
of the banquet of bones which free
trade would set before American la
Dor is not from an "organ of pro-
tected trusts" 1t is from the lead
ing Democratic organ Of Michigan
whose editor wakes up in the middle
of the night, and shrieks for free
trade in order that the American
working man may buy cheaper
coat made from cloth woven by
twenty-five cents-a-day labor of Eu-
rope. 1t is against the products of
this kind Of starving labor that Con-
gresham Fordney has insisted on
creating a strong protection barrier.
This is why he is a "stand patter"
for strong protective tariff. This
is why he will refuse to revise the
tariff along free trade lines. Mr..
Fordney has risen to the ways and
means committee of Congress, from
the ranks of labor. He has had al
part in labor's struggles; he know
its hardships. II returned to Con-
gress, he will never vote to force the
labor of America
to compete with the twenty-five
cents-a-day labor of down-trodden
Saxony and Bohemia. Mr.. Fordney
has higher ideals for the American
home and the abuse Of free trade
and mugwump organs will not
swerve him from the path of true
Republicanism.

THE OWOSSO TIMES
EDMUND o. DEWEY. EDITOR.
OWOSSO, FRIDAY, AUG. IA, 1908
These are The Facts.

Some days ago the Bay City Tri
bune printed a communication from
a correspondent at St. Johns relat
ing to the political history of J. w
Fitzgerald. The writer charged Mr.
Fitzgerald with having been a mem
Der of free silver club in 1896
stated that he was defeated in the
fall Of that year for delegate to both
the county and state conventions
in the defeat of a part of the Repub-
Iican county ticket, charged him
with working for a democratic can
didate for city treasurer last spring,
etc. The article also stated that as
a member of the committee on reso-
lutions at the republican county con-
vention in March last he signed a
resolution endorsing. Congressman
Fordney and instructing the Clinton
county delegation to the district con-
vention to vote for Mr. Fordney as a
delegate to the Republican national
convention. The Saginaw Courier
Herald deemed the article to be
authentic and republished it, there
upon Mr.. Fitzgerald wrote to the
publisher making a general denial of
all the facts contained in the article
and asked the Courier-Herald to
publish his denial. Mr.. Fitzgerald's
statement was sent to a number of
papers in the district and by them
published. Mr.. w. J. Hunsaker,
publisher of the Courier-Herald, con-
suited Mr.. Fordney about the matter
and was met with request, that in
order that no injustice be done Mr..
Fitzgerald the. facts be carefully in
vestigated and if any statement not
absolutely correct had been publish
ed that it be corrected. Mr.. Hunsak-
er decided to send a representative
to st. Johns to Investigate the state
ments made in the Bay City Tribune
article, with the following result:
A Silver Club was organized in st.
Johns in the spring of 1896 and the
members signed the following state
ment:
1T believe that the free coinage
of both gold and silver as it existed
prior to 1878 at the ratio of 16 to
is essential to the permanent pros
perity of the American people, and
I hereby pledge myself to use most
earnest efforts to the immediate res
tOration of silver to it's place as
money by the United States without
regard to the policy of any other ma
ton"
The above declaration was signed
by ]. wa Fitzgerald. 1t was also
signed by Edward Brown, Cooley
e. Ball, Galusha Pennell, William H.
Castle, George F. Marvin, Richard |
Moore, Emery, e. Uric, all promi-
nent st. Johns Democrats. Also by

the official Democratic newspaper at

last forty years. The above state
ment was also signed by others.

Petting Cuba is a mighty expen
sive job. Because Of tariff discrim
nations in favor of that white ele,
plant we are buying of Cuba one
hundred per cent more goods than
Cuba is buying of us, and our bal
ance of trade with Cuba is annually
more than $40,00O.000 on the
wrong side of our ledger. In addi-
ton to that we are supporting a
standing army to settle her family
jars and have saddled upon the
country for the next fifty years on
Cuba's account pension roll which
will cost us a billion dollars. Be-
cause Mr.. Fordney has ventured to
criticise some of this costly philan-
throphy he has called down on his
head the wrath of the college fresh
men who are doing the heavy edi-
torial tariff stunts for the Democrat
ic and mugwupm papers. 1t is real
ly too bad that Mr. Fordney cannot
please all of these polished literary
gentlemen, but possibly the friend
ship and approval OF the farmers, the
business men and the laboring men
will console him.

Every dollars worth OF foreign
goods which comes into the United
States takes fifty cents out of the
pockets of American labor, and
twenty-five cents out of the pockets
of the American producer of the raw
material. Protection builds up home
industries. Free trade or low tariff
moves. our factories to foreign lands,
and invites to our shores the pro-
ducts of foreign labor. An Ameri-
can coat made of cloth woven by
protected Michigan wool, is good
protected Michigan wool lis good
enough for Congressman Fordney
and it Is good enough for any banker,
farmer, merchant or laboring man in
the eighth district.
Fordney never graduated from
college; neither did Lincoln, nor
Grant, nor Edison. Neither did
Chandler, nor Luce, nor Rich. All
graduated in the hard schools of
labor and business experience where
life's best lessons are learned. This
is the first time we ever heard the
strange doctrine promulgated that
1t is a political crime for business
man to disagree with a college man
about strictly business affairs. That
is the only political offense we have
ever heard charged against Fordney.
