The Dingley tariff made multi
millionaires out of cotton mill ope-
rators in a decade. 1t would seem
that these men who had grown
rich beyond the dream of avarice
would have been satisfied with the
Dingley cotton schedule. But greed
knows nc bounds and the average
rate of duties collected on manu-
featured cotton goods under the
Payne-Aldrich bill is 20 per cent
higher than under the Dingley bill.
For example, s pieces of 54-inch
cotton covert, costing abroad q
cents per yard, used for ladies'
skirts and children's suits, paid
$43.34 under the Dingley tariff Of
30 per cent, but under the new
duty it paid s cents per square
yard, or $62.8S, an increase of
about 80 per cent. An importa.
ton OF four pieces of 54-inch mer-
cerized cotton costing abroad 35
cents per yard would have paid
under the Dingley duty $31.14, but
actually paid under the new tariff
$4l.83, an increase Of "a per cent.
Thus this additional extortionate
tariff tax on cotton goods will now
proceed to make billionaires out of
cotton mill millionaire owners.

THE FREE LIST.

They have given you a tariff
law that places things you do not
need on the free list, and the
things you do need are burdened
with heavy taxes. Under the
Aldrich-Payne tariff bill there Is a
tax Of 81 per cent on sugar for the
benefit of the sugar trust, while
acorns are free. Wooden blankets
are taxed 165 per cent, while cot
ton rags are free. There is a tax
Of 105 per cent on women's dress
goods, while crude bones are free.
Carpets are under a 80 per cent
tax, while old junk is free. There
is a tariff of so per cent on I'M
brellas, while fishskins are free.
On shawls there is so per cent
taxes, while grass Is free. Thread
is subject to 105 per cent taxes,
while leeches are free. There is a
65 per cent tax on mems gloves,
while skeletons are free. Clothing
has a tariff of SO per cent, but we
are given free birds eggs. Wom-
ems hats have 95 per cent tariff,

If the Payne-Aldrich tariff law is

If the Payne-Aldrich tariff law is
the best of its kind, as President
Taft asserted in his now famous
Winona speech, why did the In
diana Republican convention re-
fuse to endorse it? And why did
the Iowa Republican convention
openly repudiate it? And why did
the Kansas Republicans defeat the
congressman for denomination who
voted for it? And why do Sena-
tors Dolliver, Cummins, Bristow,
LaFollette, Clapp, Nelson, Bever-
idge, Burkett, Brown and Crawford
denounce it?-they are all Repub-
lican senators from Republican
states. Unless the provocation was
very great, do you suppose these
Republican states and senators
would insurge against their regu-
lar party leaders and their presi.
dent? If the tariff is not radically
wrong, how can you explain these
things? The truth is the Payne
Aldrich tariff law was such a mon
strous iniquity that these Repub-
licans chose to tear their own
party asunder with d~issension
rather than stand for it.

WHAT THE TARIFF ON WOOL
COSTS YOU.

This summer the wearers OF
mems ready-made clothing will pay
throughout the United States an
aggregate of 1920, 600, 900 more
than ever before. Directly after
schedule *" of the Payne-Aldrich
tariff bill was settled in August,
the wooden manufacturers sent out
to the manufacturers of clothing
notice Of a 80 per cent advance in
prices Of cloth. The manufacture
ers of clothing say they cannot af-
ford to pay that advance. They
pass it On to the consumer, who
is compelled to. 1t has been dis
tributed through every city and
village in the United States. BY a
marking up Of prices, the $40 suit
has become $3.50, the SIS suit $1S
and the $50 suit $25. The man
who has to have 1t will still find a
$40 suit. But most of 1t will be
shoddy.

! WHY THE TARIFF WAS RE-
vISED UPWARD.

Senator Bristow, Republican,
in a speech at Winfield, Kan,
July 8, 1910, made the following
charges, every one Of which is
a matter of record and ear be
easily verified:
when the new tariff passed
the lower House of Congress,
the duty on manufactured rub
Der was left the same as 1t had
been in the Dingley bill, 80 per
cent; In the Senate, the rate
was raised to So per cent; the
change was made by Senator
Aldrich In the room of the f.
nance committee. This tariff
became a law on August 5. With
in a month, in September of last
year, the news came out that a
rubber company was being Or
ganized. Within three months
the organization was complete;
its capital is $4,000 600, its
managing head is the son of
Senator Aldrich, Senator Al
drich himself is a director and
holds $4,000 shares; among the
other large stockholders are ST.
mon Guggenheim, senator from
Colorado, with 10000 shares,
and four of Senator Guggen-
helms brothers, with an aggre-
gate Of $4,000 shares. Within
three months after it's organiza-
ton, the new rubber company
had paid dividends approaching
1872 per cent"
The people are thus given an
insight into the work of tariff
tinkering that explains why it
was revised upward, instead OF
downward. And remember, Mr..
Missouri voter, that Senator
Warner and every Republican
congressman from Missouri vot-
ed for this increased rubber tar
if which enabled the Aldrichs
and Guggenheims to organize a
rubber trust to plumber the peo-
pie. If you can not indorse such
infamous legislation, vote the
Democratic ticket and help turn
the rascals out.
