I H have discovered a deep seated un-BH un-BH rest In the nation and tho Democratic H administration Is ovoroly criticised. H In spite of their published list of BH progressive and beneficent legislation Bb that they claimed to liavo enacted 8 slnco going Into power. Lot us sco BJ how well foundod somo of those H claims are, They claimed to have HE passed a child labor law, but tho BJ Child Labor Dureap appointed to In-H In-H vestlgato tho child labor problem was BE appointed by Republican Congress flfl and after an investigation covering BE years mado their report tptho pros-BE pros-BE cnt administration, with 'the result BE that a child labor law was passed In BE tho twinkling of an oyo, and tho law fl as passed has no mora effect In ab-9 ab-9 ollshlng child labor than though It B wb not pit on tho statuto books bo-f bo-f causo of tho Joker in tho samo that BE nullifies Its offoct. BE This legislation as was tho eight BE our bill recently passed, woro pass- ed for political reasons. Whon Pros- Went Wilson surrondurod to tho de-BE de-BE mands of tho four brotherhoods of BE railway tralnmon and passed tho H eight hour law tho most vicious legls-BE legls-BE latlvo action in tho history of Amorl- ca.took place, if those brother hoods cun co-orcq, tho president and Unit- ic-l States Congress why not others. J This Is tho mest dangerous precedont ever established in tho halls or Con- Brcss. It Is not a law to create an BJ ' eight hour labor period, buMfn arbitrary arbi-trary lncroaso of 23 per cent in tho wages paid this class of labor. It consequently necessitates nn increased increas-ed cost to tho railroads of tho country coun-try of millions of dollars and you will pay the peopio will pay this Increased cost through Increased freight nnd passenger rates something that wo liavo spent years in trying to reduce. Tho Democratic party boasts of prosperity. is this prosperity do to Democratic" rulo recalled twenty years ago when tho Industry of tlfo country were prostrated and even as lato as October 1913, nftor tho Underwood law went into effect the same condition condi-tion began. Then camo this great war, that had built up a tariff wall higher and stronger tlmnany ever known before, bocauso tho U. S. Is the producing nation of tho world and nil Europo tho consumers. South America Am-erica enjoys tho Bamo prosperity from tho same causo. A serious economic problem will confront us at tho closo of tho wnr, and tho conditions will bo rovcrsed, and protection Is necessary neces-sary or our very Industrial llfo will bo Jeopardized. Tho Democrats claim Wilson has kept us out of war. Thank God for Wilson. I say to you folks now, that we havo been kept out of war not because be-cause of Wilson, but in spito of him. Aro wo at war with Mexico. I say yes. But an Inglorious war. A"do-Bplcablo A"do-Bplcablo war. When tho Republicans Republic-ans turned over tho affairs of government govern-ment to President Wilson there had been years of Internal troublo and Insurrection in Mexico, but no lives had been lost, no property destroy ed. This good old American ilag was respected thcro. It stood for Justice, and liberty. The Tainptco Incident known to nil was nn act of war, In which nineteen of our boys lost their lives. Tho atrocities to American property owners tho massacre of our citizens on peaceful missions bent, until somo 500 havo lost their lives, would seem to mo to bo nothing short of war. Our army was ordered Into Mexico after tho Columbus raid to get Villa dead or alive. What was tho result? Our army ordered back-homo whon Carrntiza said we-could we-could go no iairlhor. Tho cost t theso Mexican wars hnvo been, over $165,000,000 and now tho solution of the Mexican troublo is sought by arbitration. What is thoro to arbitrate? " Tho lives that havo been lost. Tho property prop-erty dostroyed, and all of this duo to tho vaccllatlng policy of the Democratic Dem-ocratic administration. Give mo tho Btamlna shown by Orover Cleveland whon ho said to Great rDitaln, If you send n fleot tri'Venozuola I will consider con-sider it an act of hostility, or by The-odoro The-odoro Roosevelt under similar circumstance cir-cumstance Tho world then know what we meant and respected us in our rights. Liberty tho priceless gift of civilization civil-ization waB enjoyed by tho American citizen In nny part of tho world, but tho sldo stepping policy of the prcs-ont prcs-ont administration is humiliating to every patriotic citizen of America. And as a result n now dance has come Into popularity over tho country. It is called tho Wilson slide. You take ono step forward, two Bteps backward, back-ward, hesitate, salute, then sldo step. Wo havo now been sldo stepping for threo years. Oh, to have back our place In tho sun, undor tho moon nnd tho stars, and this glorious old flag. Tho quartet sang tho Star Spnnglod .Banner, and tho meeting was adjourned. |
