with foreign countries wore not crippled

would litivo fair play und would till

Hut I can procure it still mora striking
prooi oi tno irutn oi my assort ion that it
is not high wages, but high taxes that
koop uh buck in tho racu for tho markets
of tho world. Tho ono thing that bus
preserved tho prosperity of this country
und enabled us to hold our own under tho
existing protective taritr is our oxiiort of
grain ond provisions. 1 lie average wages
of farm laborers in this country, includ
ing board, are very much higher than
the average wages of iierpoiiH onirai-ed in
manufacturing industries. Thoy havo to
eoniieto with tho worst paid lulior in the
world, with tho Hiisslau peasant and the

tho same freo raw materials thut the
manufacturers of cotton, petroleum and
leather enjoy thoy will need no other
protection.
The timo is at hand when, if wo wish
to continuo our prosjierlty, wo must shako
oil' the shackles that have lxnind im so
long, ami realize the truth that it is freo
doin American freedom, equality befoto

which our fatherH fought, for which thoy
