want them made with as little ex.

do not believe In squandering money
on them, but in general work all

the most.
If elected, 1t will be my motto In
the peoples money, to
give them full value for every cent

THE SuPERiNTEND DENT,

While Hadley is going about the
State attacking Major, Roach and
Gordon, he takes pains to never ex.
plain, nor even mention the fact of
his veto OF the bill reducing express
rates. He vetoed that bill mt the
dictation OF j. l.. MINIS, attorney
for the express companies.
The vigilance of Attorney-Ge General
Elliot W. Major and his assistants
thwarted the scheme of the standpat
Republicans to disfranchise the Pro-
pressive party In this State. Pro-
gressives should remember to whom
they are indebted for the freedom of
the ballot.
Mckinley still stands with Had
ley for high taxes, and he has never
denied II.

YIN AS there ever such a
W. brazen fallacy IA the
claim of Republican pro.
tectiOuists that the tariff is a shield
aud protection to American labor
against the pauper labor of Europe'
The very fact that this alleged for.
eign pauper labor is admitted to
the United States without restric.
tiOn-if it is not brought here under
cOntract-tO compete in our mines
and mills with American labor. dis
proves at once such a claim. The
American laborer has to compete
with it right at his own door.
Again, the fact that the tariff is
not based on the difference in the
cost of labor in Europe and the
cost of labor in America, but is
raised away up and beyond any
such difference, and that the Amer
lean laborer receives no appreciate
roportiou of the tribute thus
forced from the American cousnm.
er for the benefit of the favored
few, while it perceptibIy increases
the Iaborer 5 cost of living, is an
other clear rcfutation that the tariff
is benefit to labor. Also, the
fact that labor has to organize it.
self into unious and declarations in
order to maintain any sort of de-
cent standard of wages, is the most
crushing proof that the tariff is no
protection to the American laborer,
and the man who tells him it is
presumes upon his ignorance and
insults his intelligence. If it were
not for the labor organizations in
this country, labor would be worse
enslaved than it is and its condi-
tion more deplorable-and certain.
~ it is deplorable enough now in
many of the mills of productive in
dustry where the women aud chill
dren are forced to labor for the
scant wages of 50 90 aud $500 or
$500 week-stihlng the mother
hood of the women aud sapping
the youth and vitality Of the chill
dren--.in order that the working
mans family may live at all.
