The democratic party is always
concerned about the American con-
sumner. Our republican achievement
it the making of a nation of prosper
ing producers, and by producers
mean every human being who applies
muscle or skill or brain or all to the
conversion of natures abundance in
to the necessities and luxuries of life
OF participates in the ways and means
Of their transportation and exchange.
Far better a high cost of living and
ability to buy than a lowering of cost
attended by destruction of purchas-
ing capacity
The Cost of Living.
1t is worth while to recall the mag
nificent importance given to the high
cost of living four years ago; first, to
emphasize democracys failure to re-
dUce it, though it risked and almost
accomplished the ruin of our good for
tune in attempting it; second, to de-
clare there is no such thing, What
was thought to be the high cost were
only the higher demands and the
larger capacity to buy, which were
the natural reflexes of the higher
standard of living reared under re-
publican protection.
The one notable advance in cost has
rrofited the American farmer, for
hose befitting share in good fortune
we have stood unfailingly and sin
Cerely. His reward is republican
achievement and We prefer to cling to
the conditions which brought to agri-
culture its delayed but deserved re-
ward and hold it secure in republican
maintenance of a home market un-
matched in all the world. More. we
want our basic prosperity to be home
created and home sustained, and not
dependent on conditions abroad.
Let us agree-nay. let us boast
that American industry can compete
with any in all the world. under like
conditions, But we also boast con-
dition, created through isolation and
maintained by protection. wherein
the rate of American wages is twice
or thrice TO ten times that Of old
world competition Reduce our wages
and we shall have conditions more
rearly equal. but no republican will
consent to that We are willing to
stundardize the wages Of the world
We are as fit to lead in doing that as
We were to fix the newer guarantees
OF liberty and independence; but we
republicans do not mean to lower our
scales to effect the leyeling We
want the world measurements raised
to our heights Until it is done We
shall cling to American wages for
American workmen. American mar.
