Many Republicans in New York

have always been classed as Republi-
cans-are supporting Gov. Wilson
openly." said Congressman William Z.
Redfeld, OF New York. in the Hotel

the national committee is ~orklnE
hard" continued the congressman.
"In New York II has installed six
tarifi exhibits In different parts OF the
city, and in three weeks 10000 peo'

Mr.. itediicid is a big, well-dressed
man with red whiskers, not toe
bushy, connected by a thin mustache
He talks as one having authority, and
! is not afraid OF the scribes. When
he speaks OF the national committee
he says "naytional," and he has a
voice that Mr.. Bryan might envy Tor
| its pleasant qualities.
These tariff exhibits" Mr.. Redfield

good. Their nature? We have, for

that is affected by the tariff bears
| fgures-the cost, the amount of the
ltariff. and the probable difference IN
price caused by the tariff. The cloth

same way, so that everyone can see
at a glance just what ERECT the tarlH
! is having on the cost OF living,
"On the walls OF the room in which
, the exhibit is held are charts and ex-
planatory diagrams. Then we have
cartoons drawn by the best newspa-
per artists In the city, which are
changed often.
Several young men and women are

instance, one OF the young women ap-
proaches a woman visitor and places
a kettle In her hand. She says This
kettle costs so much; the tariff Is sc
much; II the tariff we're removed, II
would cost so much II Is a great
object.lesson, and the woman remem

Then the national committee sent
photographers to Lawrence, Mass.
and had them take pictures Of the
working people there in their homes
to show how the protected workman
has to live.
