Show START THE PETITIONS. Isn't it about time for Democratic wool producers to start their petitions to congress, begging that wool shall not be put on the free list? And had not the Democratic miners better begin at once to circulate petitions against free lead? The election is over. It is time Democratic wool and lead interests were looking after their business with a sharp eye. It is not right that they should be offered up as the first sacrifice on the altar of free trade. It would be fairer to begin the carnage with the workingmen of New York, Indiana and Illinois. Let them take their medicine first. |
