SHOWING THEM.v

THE san Antonio TEX Express reluctantly admits
that I'VE have been shown how easy it is to pro-
duce at home many Of the thngs which Europe has
been our main, if not sole, reliance
Yes, the war has shown you. The Republican party
told you time after time, but you wouldn't listen You
were too intensely partisan to listen TO reason We
demonstrated time after time By imposing a protective
tariff that America could produce many things she had
been buying in Europe. We demonstrated il in the
OF tin plate. We had been bugng from Wales The
Mckinley bill imposed protective aFn tin plate.
Democrats said that the import duty would be added
the price Of tin and that the American people would
pay the tax On the contrary, there were SO many tin
plate mills erected here that home competition sent the
price down lower than it had ever been before
Even that would not covince you that America could
produce the things had been buying in Europe But
now when there s campaign in progress, yen admit
ne truth.
Please stick to it until the next campaign comes around
