They DISLIKE me. but they dread YOU.
Tor theN know that 60 wc make

That rs why pCnrosc, Barnes

the Republican party The men who
dominated the Chicago convention
haven't the very slightest understand

don't know what tyne Of man u was

Imagine Abraham Lincoln IN com
pauy with Barnes, pcnroso and Dug

party go down Go destruction ns long
as they couldn't keep their grip ON

And now, my friends. / want 90
say one word 60 YOU In regard tu tho

ask you on the other hand To study

wasn't a program. Then what was

Three Party Views on Tariff.
Ana now let mo ask you OF New
MeNic" TO think for a moment ON this
| / ask you 20 think OF the tariff Tn,
Republican party has shown that IL
stands for a tariff Tor privilege. Alr
J Wilson and the Democrats promise @
tariff for destruction. You have vari-
GUS industries In this community. tho
wool industry. for instance. ~ the
Democrats keep their word they will
destroy that industry, MI Wilson has
said definitely. that the protective
tariff Is Ike a malignant growth.
| those were MS words, and that lac ia
tends TO cut Il out. The Democratic
| platform SAYS that a protective tariff
Is unconstitutional. Now, | want you
each 20 apply that To hts own bust
ness, ana every sheep man think 81
the fact that " Mr. Wilson means
what he says, n the Democratic party
! Is sincere IN It's platform, that every
! part of the protective tariff on wool
: must be taken off Now. II the wool
grower wants that done let him vote
the Democratic ticket; that is his
privilege, hut don't let him make any
mistake about a. That is what yot.
ing the Democratic ticket means
Either. u means that, friends. or Il
means that the Democratic party in
tends "a break faith II they are not
going 10 keep their promises. then you
cant trust anything that they cay.
Either they are sincere. or they are
insinccrc. II they are iHsinccro. they
cannot be trusted az any point, II
they are sincere. they intend to ruin
the industries OF this country. Now
tho Progressive principle--tho Pro-
gfcssives' proposal. Is perfectly clear.
! TAX OF this protective tariff ON wool
ana wOOlens; We PROPOSE not 10 keep
the Payne ldrich tariff, which every
ono knows 10 be improper ana In
many cases altogether too high We
propose Immediately to investigate
such schedules as the wooden sched-
! ule To have Il investigated by hon
