Jasper County Democrat, Volume 14, Number 91, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 24 February 1912 — CRUMPACKER DELIVERED THE "GOODS.” [ARTICLE]
CRUMPACKER DELIVERED THE "GOODS.”
Congressman Crumpacker not only voted but spoke in favor of the steel trust, when the steel tariff revision bill was up in congress last week. To the credit of Indiana let it be said that he was the only congressman from this state who betrayed his people and served the trusts. And it is not amiss to here remind the people of this district that in the campaign of two years ago the Democrat warned them that Crump, was being supported by the steel trust and that ■when the proper time arrived he would pay back their kindness withinterest. The Journal and Courier and all the loud mouthed gang gentry yelled ‘lie’ and said his opponent, Hon. John B. Peterson was the trust’s attorney, etc. They deceived some people into voting for Crump. s under these misrepresentations. But time tells the truth. The steel trust supported Crump. ; the votes showed it and Crump, in re urn voles for higher prices on all kinds of farm machinery; on all goods made of steel and thereby repays the trust. We’ll have Crump, as a candidate again this year; we’ll have the same old gang out lying for him; we’ll have the same Journal and Courier ready and. willing to deceive the people about his votes and his speeches in Congress and we are anxious to know, in the light of FACTS, whether the people will vote for themselves or for the trust server.—Tippecanoe County Democrat.
