Show WHAT WILL BB PROMISED It will bo hard for our Democratic friends to keep all their promises this year of course there will bo a tariff for revenue only that Is if the party Is honest for that Is what they believe be-lieve There will bo a war on all kinds of capital for according to their creed so soon as a man becomes rich he is an enemy of labor All manufacturers must pay wages so I that there will be no more strikes so that all worklngmen may be employed I ployed All manufacturers must find c a market for their wares so that the I factories can be kept going but there must be no subsidies to ships and I moreover if there Is any outside country coun-try which belong to the United Statcs It must he given up In case of strikes i or I rIots the military must not be called upon That will of course i cause capital to rush into new enterprises I I enter-prises because capital ii I a hclplesu thing I and must be put Into busmefln J whether there Is any protection for It I or not In short the platform must In effect read this way All ye who arc laden with heavy burdens come Into In-to us and wo will give you rest All ye who have a grievance come All ye who are poor come All ye who want an olllce come All ye who believe be-lieve In short hours for labor the shorter the better come All yc who have a complaint come All ye who want a new adjustment and a new division come All ye who arc out and want to get In come The arms of the Democracy are circumambient and I will take you in the wings of tlu I Democracy can brood a world be i neath them Democracy holds within I I itself remedies for all evils It can I teach how to make fortunes without earning them it can explain how to i receive wages without work it holds I the certain specific which cures political poli-tical bellyache It will send it free to any one who will send for it between now and November It has a record which it would if possible divide up I among as many as possible and would If possible restore the prosperity which always comes when It has full control con-trol of affairs I Tho above are not exaggerations Our country Just now Is the wonder and admiration of the world More men are employed and at better wages than ever before In our land than In any land since the beginning of time but the raven croak of the Democracy Is proclaiming that there Is only misery In our land In every State there is a roar of progress but Democracy Demo-cracy stands on the heights and cries You are mistaken you arc not enjoying en-Joying prosperity if i you but knew the truth you would be crying your eyes I out at your own suffering The majestic spectacle of this Republic I feeding the world supplying the world with textiles with coal with manufactured manu-factured goods with a trade balance In its favor of 000000000 annually i all this is lost to the Democracy Demo-cracy with It this is but an optical illusion what is needed is to return to those Jeffersonian principles which like the fiddlers house in Arkansas could not have Its roof repaired when It rained because It rained and did not need repair when it did not rain There Is to be a now stock of roosters brought out this year for use and If the party can but succeed next year the workingmen with empty buckets will be advised again to feast on the roosters of 1000 We suspect the calamity cry has been played for all that there Is In it that the free schools will have done their work before be-fore election and that never again will the voters of this country be lured by false beacons into Democratic Democra-tic breakers |
