Rensselaer Republican, Volume 27, Number 9, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 25 October 1894 — Help to Save Your Country. [ARTICLE]
Help to Save Your Country.
It is the duty of every true American citizen to be interested iu the welfare of his country, and now, when times are hard, money scarce and the country going to wreck under the free trade mugwumps, every man should he up and doing what be can to save his eountry. This section is a farming country and the farmers feel that they have nothing to live for. Wages are low, lower than I have ever known them. Men are working for sls and $lB per month who used to eret $25 or S2B. We never had such times before. Why? Because we had a government that would stand by its country. We had a party that would stand by both the manufacturers and working people. It has been proven that a low tariff will not work in our country, but promotion to all home industries and enterprises is noted in history as bringing the most prosperous times. That is what has built up our country, and if we stand by it, and vote for it, ife will give us a nation that will stand at the head of the world. We are nonliving for any European countries, we are living for America. No working man in the United States wants to work for as low <vages as the European. I would say to every voter that he must vote for the party that has built up our country, a party that has been tested aod that has proved beneficial both, to manufacturers and to A Working Mail Logan.
