What the Tariff Does For Us.

The great war makes the full din
ner pail now for the American work
men. The restored Tariff will make
the full dinner pail when the Repub-
licans again take their places and
handle the government of this great
nation They will speedily give the
U. S. A. proper Tariff that will
protect the American workmen and
build up the country. They will also
give us protection against any and all
foreign invaders. What is the Tariff
and what does it do for us?
1t is tax on fol eign manufactured
goods and anything produced in for
eign land and it keeps our home mar
kets for goods manufactured by Amer
lean workmen and prevents the for
eign pauper laborers making paupers
of American laborers. 1t also builds
up American industries for the bene-
fit of producers and consumers.

THE FREE SEED FAKE.

The Houston Post takes the posi-
ton that the practice Of sending out
free seeds by the members OF con-
sress IA one OF the rankest fakes ever
perpetrated upon the people. The
r.v,e believes so too, and further
more we believe evrybody else
thinks the same way about II. The
seeds are absolutely worthless ana
all who plant them are faxed. the
congressman sending them out think
they are thereby purchasing votes,
hut as there Is not one voter In ten
thousand ready to sell SO cheap, the
congressman are therefore themselves
faxed. The Post says:
