We trust readers will keep daily tab .on
the attitude of Democratic statesmen on the tariff
matter now before the special session Of congress.
We have said all along that the Democrats were pro
tectionsts on all that they themselves produce but
free traders for the other fellow. Just watch the
record and poll the Democrats. That's all that will
be necessary. 80

THEY CUT THE WAGES DOWN l,r
Protection well protected all kinds of toiling men.
For 1t guaranteed high wages and they were nan
by when
Their pay days and they could meet all bills
without frown;
But good times vanished, for the Denis just cary,
ed the tariff down.
They carved the tariff down SO far all foreign
workers cried
"oh. we have got them in h fx!" and 1t was not
denied. g aHa,
" "'Ses "eH'ihs pauper pay IN every alen town,
Got square at home with lightning speed and cut :
the wages down. r.
In came the pauper product, came distress and
wreck;
Up came the business panic no Democrat could
check; .-.,.
For everywhere, in every state, the bosses were
done Drown"
And finding they must sink or swim, they cut the
wages down.
