McADO0 Tells LABOR TO VOTE
FOR hanna; ALL HIS 0PP0R-
ENTS WANT is YOUR VOTE
Hon. William G. McAdco, in his address yes
terday morning, made strong appeal not only to
Labor but to the common people generally to sup
port the Democratic ticket this Year, not only with
their votes but with their money. Mr.. McAdoo is
making the same appeal to Labor everywhere, and
he gave out the following in manuscript form for
publication of his real views as to what Laborng
people should do in this emergency:
"Labors fight is the fight of the common pee
pie everywhere. The people who control gfeatyin-
terests stand together. They contribute huge sums
to campaign funds; buy newspapers and magazines
for the purpose of msguiding publ opinion they
hire workers at the polls and get out their votes,
whereas the Democrats, having Ettle money, fire.
quently lose elections by lacking the funds neces-
sary for actual expenses.
BUT MEN WHO WORK WITH THEIR
HANDS SHOULD REALIZE THAT THEY NEVER
HAD MUCH RECOGNITION UNTIL THEY Sc
CURED 1T FROM DEMOCRATIC ADMINS
TRAo ~ The SHF So FoR BEN ms
PURPOSE OF PUTTING LABOR BACK INTO
THE PLACE 1T OCCUPIED BEFORE 1918, WHEN
WOODROW WILSON BECAME PRESIDENT AND
HAD BOTH HOUSES OF CONGRESS WITH HIM.
'"The greatest criticsm-a perfect storm of it
from the Atlantic to the Pacific-was because dur
ing the war l raised the wages of Railroad employ
es little nearer to the wages that were being paid
to workers in factories all the land. | cut the
salaries of Railroad Officials to a maximum of
Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars, and raised the
on the trains and in the shops to wage upon which
they could exist like respectable frugal citizens of
the United States should exist.
"YOU HAVE A FIGHT IN THIS STATE IN
WHICH THE RICH CORPORATIONS ARE ON
ONE SIDE AND THE DEMO CRATIC PARTY AND
ITS ALLIES Il @, ON , THE OTHER SIDE-AND THAT
YOU TO GO TO THE POLLS AND VOTE FOR
THE MEN WHO ARE IN SYMPATHY WITH
YOUR NEEDS, FROM WHOM YOU CAN GET
THE ONLY JUSTICE THAT is POSSIBLE FOR
YOU.
Il know that conditions in this State are muche
like conditions in every other State with which am
acquainted the Democratic Party is making fight1
against the money of the Interests | want to urge,
every man here, regardless of whether he has been
asked to do so or not, to go to the Democratic
Headquarters and contribute at least Five Dollars
to assist in winning Victory that means more to
you than you can imagine at this time.
"MEN WILL USE ONE FALSE ARGUMENT
OR ANOTHER EACH ONE A LITTLE MORE
FALSE THAN THE OTHER, AS TO WHY YOU
SHOULD VOTE FOR THE REPUBLICAN, CANDI-
DATE FOR GOVERNOR LET ME IMPRESS UP
WANT is YOUR VOTE. CAST YOUR VOTE FOR
JUDGE HANNA, REGARDLESS OF WHAT MEN
MAY SAY TO YOU, AND YOU WILL VOTE FOR
YOUR OWN INTERESTS AND FOR THE INTER
EST OF YOUR STATE. THIS IS MY LAST AND
MOST EARNEST ADVICE TO MY FRIENDS IN
ALBUQUERQUE"
Mr. McAdoo, after hearing that the Democratic
Candidate for Governor being assailed as an
enemy of Organized Labor he said: 81 know ex-
actly how the Republicans are doing it-they are
dong the same sort of thing in every State.'' He
then dictated the closing parapranh of the above
statement and said Print that and give it to the
working men as my best advice to them
