An Unanswerable Argument
?How Republican Success
Affects You.
The Columbia Stale recently
republished the following from
Orlando Reporter-Star, of Florida,
which should be read and
studied particularly by those
Democrats who labor under the
delusion that the Republican
victory was the best thing for
the country:
It is well to take the result of
the election philosophically and
let the bitterness of the political
campaign be a thing of the pant.
But it is not wisdom or truth
to say, as we have heard iroui
several persons, that "as indivi.
duals we won't know the difference,"
or that "business would
have been shaken up if Bryan
had been elected, but now prosperity
will go right on without
* interruption".
A friend who is the proprietor
of a Democratic paper said to us
a day or two ago that he "was
so indifferent about the result
that he would vote tor the biggest
Republican in the bunch it
it were not for the nigger."
We use his words and suppress
his name because we simply
want to use him and hi6 business
as an illustration to show
that men who profess to beDemo
cratic and who talk like that are
not well grounded in the principles
we stand for as Democrats.
It does make a difference to the
individual who is elected, else
what are we fussing about and
why have opposing parties at
all?
Let us take this very printer's
situation. Statistic say that living
expenses have increased the past
few years to the extent of 40 per
cent. And this printer is paya
higher rate tor everything he
uses in his business thau he did
10 years ago, from ink to paper.
In fact the paper trust has increased
the price, encouraged by
congress and Joo Cannon, until
it costs almost as much as the
subscription price that the printer
asks for his publication.
Now then, he pays more tor
his raw material and he pays 40
per cent more for living, but he
can charge no more for his
newspaper nor his job work.
The people will not pay more tor
the paper and a Republican government
is competing with him
in furnishing and printing stamped
envelopes.
Is not a personal matter?
Take the photographer, as another
example. Every superior
chemical and all the paper he
uses is taritl burdened to excess.
In addition, a great trust worth
millions of dollars, buys up and
controls everything of merit and
then actually sends out porsonal
letters threatening the trade
that unless it uses every article
of its manufacture it will not
permit the trade to handle any
ot its goods. To enforce this rule
it puts traveling spies on the
roads who report what they sea
And yet, since photographs are
a luxury, the photographer can
not raise his price to the public
and lie also must receive less and
live notwithstanding a 40 per
cent.increase in living expenses.
We could go all through the
list and prove up the same conditions.
Now who gets this increase?
Look at the alarming increase in
government expenses. The taxpayer,
out of this 40 per cent
increase in life's necessaries pays
the bill. Look at the gigantic
fortunes ot the tariif baron and
the trust magnates! There is
where the other portion of this
40 per cent increase is going.
It won't do to say, no matter
how the election has gone it
doesn't affect me. It does affect
^ you. It grinds you down. And
now watch next year's government
expenses and you will see
that fomo'liing more than lOpei
THE LANC
cent, will be wrno'r out of you.
But wouldn't ii hi n oleciiou
have unsettled businoc^?
Well,could it have been unsettled
auy worse than it was a
year ago under Uoo9evelt?
Bosh! Suppose there had beeu
a slight disturbance consequent
upon a change in presidents,
isn't congress and the senate
still there to buck any extreme
measure, it sucb were proposed?
But th en. AOhlFrputl i? r?arm?tui- I
ble tor this 40 fr increase. Yes;
well now take the two men and
compare them. Bryan anxious
to correct the evils aud prevent
congress in its excessive taritl
and astounding expenses and
Taft, pointing to the Republican
record of the past as his platform,
a genial passifier who can't
find it in his good-natured heart
to oppose the measures of his
Republican cougress.
Which man would have helped
the people to reduce that 40 per
cent, excess?
