Rensselaer Republican, Volume 26, Number 12, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 16 November 1893 — AGAINST THE TAX ON BEER. [ARTICLE]

AGAINST THE TAX ON BEER.

Letters received by the few Indiana Representatives who remain in Washington Indicate that there is a thoroughly organized movement among the brewers to oppose tha increase of the tax on beer. The German vote, which was cast almost entirely for Mr. Cleveland in the last campaign, is being used now as a menace to the ways and means committee to pre - vent the increase of tax. The German newspapers which reach the ways and means committee room are filled with tho criticisms of the Democratic leaders for the proposed Increase of taxes.
