Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 22, Number 4, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 2 October 1900 — Posters "G" and "H." [ARTICLE]

Posters "G" and "H."

Two remarkably effective campaign posters are ready for distribution by the American Protective Tariff league. They are entitled respectively “Poster G” and “Poster H.” “Poster G” embodies the splendid prosperity figures of “Uncle Sam’s balance sheet” revised and corrected so as to include the official statistics of the fiscal year ended June 30, 1900. “Poster H” is a picturesque illustration of “That Terrible Eclipse” of 1893 6 and the res toration of the unobscured sunlight of prosperity, 1897-1900. Taken together, “Uncle Sam’s balance sheet” (“Poster G”) and “That Terrible Eclipse (“Poster H”) present with extraordinary distinctness the contrast of conditions as they existed under Democratic free trade in 1896 and under Republican protection in 1900. These posters can be seen very generally in the headquarters of local Republican committees, or they will be mailed to any address for 8 cents. Address, American Protective Tariff league, 135 West Twenty-third street, New York. Under the present administration the United States is sending coal to Newcastle, cottons to Manchester, iron to Russia and machinery to all the world. The Democrats promise to stop this business w'hen they get into power.
