with good government until the people become more able to pay. If you can keep down the appropriations,
 as suggested and make every dollar pay it's just proportion of taxes, you will have done a difficult task. and

 and to some duties l think incumbent
 on me to perform. On every oTpor-

 have been a grievious burden on the
 poor. Under the false pretense of protecting American labor they have raised the taxes on imported goods to
 a prohibitory rate, and after thus eN- cludine all competition in our markets they prepared the ground for the growth of the trusts, which grew and ripened like the banyan tree of At-
 rica. smothering and poisoning all that breathed their air. Every possl-
 ble industry of America formed itself
 into trust, and proceeded Co charge
 and get what price they pleased from the helpless objects of their spOila- ton. The necessities Of life did not ! escape their greed. The cry of the | rsI poratiOns have no ears to hear and no heart to feel Having no competition in the markets they sell for what they please, and there being no trust in labor. they proceed to import labOrers | and pay wages that sJarve the Amer | icau Iaborer to death, and thus pro tect him from cold and hunger and want.
