NEW YORK, April 6.-Backed by
thousands of their wives, sisters and

CARNATIONS OF every class of working
men are meeting in this city to-day to
protest for the consumers Of the whole
country against the enormously in
creased tariff proposed on the cotton
stockings used by all Americans Of
moderate means. Not only will this
provision of the Payne bill create a
trust in this everyday necessity, they
declare, but every family in the land
will be taxed with higher prices for
Inferior goods to fatten the purses of
tie few favored manufacturers who
would grasp control of another article
which every man, woman and child
must buy. While the silk hosiery o
the wealthy is left untouched by the
new schedule, 1t is shown, the burden
OF the tariff tax on cotton stockings
will fall heaviest on the working man
and woman of the land.
To urge every man in the country
