e,7f Tariff Is Issue. 7 @<&5
THE Democratic party, as party,
Is opposed to the principle OF protec-
tive tariff. Just as the Republican party
from It's birth has been Its advocate.
Every time the Democratic party per-
suades the American people 70 adopt
low tariff the free traders ideal OF
cheapness is realized. Everything is
cheap under a Democratic tariff, and
nothing Is cheaper than human labor.
for millions then vainiy seek employ
ment. Farm products are cheap under
a Democratic tariff, because they can
not find a market at any price. I'm
ported goods are cheap under Demo-
cratic tariff, but the worker without a
Job and the farmer unable TO market his
crops nave no money, so the bargains Of
cneap foreign goods are enjoyed only
oy the rich Nothing is cheap To the
Individual who has no money and no
source OF income,
The policy Of protection Is the cor
nerstone upon which the Republican
| partv has builded the greatest. era OF
progress that the world has ever known.
never has there been stronger sup
porter or a more consistent advocate Of
the necessity Of protective tariff for
the comfort and prosperity of all our
people t.lan has been and Is our candi-
date for President.
ITO the survivors Of the Civil War.
TO the survivors of the Spanisa-Ameri-
can war. TO the survivors Of the World
war, ana 70 the widows and dependents
OF all OF them, wish to call attention
to the fact that you have never had a
better friend than is Our candidate for
President OF the United States. In your
behalf his record Is clear. He has voted
/ for every piece Of legislation designed
for the benefit Of the soldier and for
| the benefit Of his dependents. He has
been ever mindful Of the injunction left
us by the immortal Lincoln. He has
helped to bind up the Nations wounds
and to care for him who shall have
bcrne the battle and for his widow and
orphan.
Leader In legislation.
by reason Of the long legislative
experience Of our candidate, and BY
reason Of his mature and reliable iudg-
nnent on legislative matters, he has had
a conspicuous part In the preparation
and advocacy Of much Of the legisla-
ton that We find today upon the statute
books Of our country.
Indiana's candidate was born ia The
agricultural section Of our State and
under agricultural influence he grew
| to manhood He still lives where he
was born--in the agricultural region
He has seen much Of the adversity OF
1 farming and has been endeavoring with
all his might and main to remedy, In 30
far as legislation Is concerned, the Ills
that the farmers have been suffering
4 in the last few years. So great and un-
ceasing have been his efforts on behalf
Of the farmers throughout the agTicul-
tural sections Of the land, that be has
been generally recognized as one OF the
foremost Of the farmers friends. In
following this course he has consistently
insisted, however, that whatever Is done
for the relief Of the farming sections
Of the country must not be done TO the
detriment of the other interests Of our
country, and the farmer would not have
him follow any other course.
''Indiana's candidate has ever looked
/ upon life as serious problem. He has
ever discharged the duties Of the trusts
/ given him IN serious way, yet he
I possesses a rare fund Of wit, and has
the happy faculty of using it when II
I helps. rather than hurts. In private
conversation or in public speaking ne
applies It to illustrate practical point.
