I bill of 1888 The people who make iron and steel tell us that the schedule schedule sched sched- ule on iron iron and steel is is absolutely satisfactory and arid they do not ask any more The great bugbear is is free trade You cannot have free tra trade e and everybody knows it A people who has to raise a year Vear to carry carryon on its government govern government government ment as we do with no method of raising taxes as other states spates have must rais raise raise its revenue by import I duties And you cannot have free i trade and everybody ought to know it That bugaboo is is nonsense and andin andin andin in my ju judgment gme t it is equal nonsense to say legislation touching touching- the tariff can bring prosperity to this country It cannot do it it Applause The address says there should be bed beno beno no d' d dissension among republicans II IIno on the ne silver qu question stion It is willing they should vote vote as they please on this question just so they stay slay t to together together gether on th the county and legislative I ticket In other w words wards where nation national national nat nat- ion ional l issues are are at at stake they may mav vote the democratic ticket but on local officers they must cry cry lion tion voters vote s knowing that silver is the i issue sue will v ill be for or ora a against that issue all ali al along ng the line |
