100 deaths are those of children undel

doctors declare the big majority o
these children perish because thei,
mothers labor such long hours, under
unsanitary conditions. in the wooler
mills.
But mark the percentage of child
deaths in Lawrence particularly. For
ty-seven out Of every 100 persons tina,
die in Lawrence are children under 6
years of age. Now compare this with
Seattle, Wash. There. out of every
100 persons who die, but 10 are chill
dren under 5 years of age.
The average for the whole country
Is 81 children under years of age
instead Of AZ as in Lawrence. and for

cessive protection, say that the sole
reason they desire tariff rates which
give them monopoly on American
markets and permit them to charge

is that they are protecting" their EN-.

In addition to making this plea, the
trust magnates, of course, make liber-
al contributions of money to the cam.

The result is such bills as Schedule X

Here is plain question for the
American people to ask themselves:
Why should they longer permit com.
parative handful of millionaires to
force them to pay exorbitant prices for
every article Of woolen clothing they
wear, on the pretext of these rich men
that they are protecting" their EN-.

being paid such low wages that they
