KEEP THE FLAG FLYIHG.
THE NEW STAR-SPANGLED BARKER.
Oh, 6ay, can you ce, by the far Eastern
light,
What so proudly is hailed at the twi
light's last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars,
after many a fight.
In lands near and far, is so gallantly
streaming?
And the thanks in our prayers, rising high
in the air,
live proof to the World that our flag is
still there;
Oh, say, let that star-spangled banner be
waved
O'er the lands we have freed and the
peoples we've saved!
Oh. thus be it always, whenever we stnr.d
Between tiie oppressed and a King's
desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the
heaven-rescued lr.nd
Praise the Power that hath made us a
powerful nation!
And onward we must, for our cause it :.s
just:
And this be our motto, "In God is our
trust;"
Let the star-spangled banner in triumph
be waved
O'er the lands we have freed and the
peoples we've saved!

complete, shows that President McKin

than all of his predecessors since the
foundation stone of the government was
laid.
PLENTY STARVATION.
Of course it does not strictly pertain to
the subject to record an interesting fact
with regard to the general labor situation
in Omaha, which presumably is a typical
Western town, but it may nevertheless
be recalled that the Omaha World-Herald
was Mr. Bryan's personal organ in
1S90. and during that campaign it made
the prophecy daily that in the event of
McKinley's election the depression and
distress among the working classes
would be widespread. The best proof
of the falsity of this prophecy is found
on the want pages of the Wofld-IIerald.
A recent issue at hand contains the ad
ver: isements of two females and seven
males who want situations, while on the
same page the "help wanted" advertise
ments ask for 107 females r.nd 115 males.
This is in addition to the "agents want
ed," and does not include the advertise
ment for 1.000 men for railroad work.
The calamity prophecy was a failure in
Mr. Bryan's own State, as it was else
where. Omaha had its share of hard times in
1S93-1S94.
Wage Earners.
"The whole free silver movement is a
conspiracy against wages." Bourke
Cockran, 1S96.
Wages under free silver:
China
Unskilled labor 10e to 20c per day
Skilled labor 20c to 40c per day
Mexico
Unskilled labor 45c to 60c per day
Skilled labor 50c to $1.80 per day
In the United States under gold basis:
Unskilled labor. . .$1.00 to $1.50 per day
Skilled labor $2.00 to $5.00 per day
Which is the best for yon?

Employment Seeks Labor.
We have gone from industrial depres
sion to industrial activity. We have
gone from labor seeking employment to
employment seeking labor. We have
abundant and unquestionable currency
the world. over, and we have an unsur
passed national credit better than it has
ever been before in our history. Presi

BRINGING THE QUESTION
HOME TO THE WORKERS.
Never before have the wage-earners of the United States been better
off than during the years 1897-1900 under the administration of Presi
dent William McKinley. Before casting his rote the wage-earner shanld
ask himself these questions:
Is work easier to jret than it was la 1895?
Are wages higher?
Am I living up to a higher" staadard?
Am I saving more money than 1 did then?
Am I better r.ble to educate my children?
Are my fellow men In better condition as a class?
Is it Not a fact that the vast army of wage-earners are batter off phys
ically, mentally aad financially than they were?
What has become of the ast number of unemployed men who, during
the last Democratic administration, walked the streets of tha cities and
canvassed the farms for work?
Let the wage-earner ask himself these questions and then let him ask
whether he wants to vote for the restoration to power of a party that
brought the country to the verge ol ruin, that stayed manulacturiag by
its low tariff theories, and whose success would be to Inctte panic, a loss
of work and an unsettling of the prosperous business conditions the
country over.
If the wage-earner will do this, and vote as he knows is true, there will
be no doubt about the success of the Republican party in this election.
LET HIM KEEP IN MIND WHETHER HE HAS NOT FOUND WOBK
MORE REGULARLY UNDER M'KIXLEY THAN HE DID UNDER
CLEVELAND. WHEN DID HE HAVE TO LAY OFF THE MOST?
MORE WAGES ARE PAID,
MORE D EMPLOYED.
Whenever the wage-earner is tempted to believe that the mw who tol'
in the factories and workshops are no
think back four years only. He knows. V
When be asks for figures, give him these:
' WAGE-EARNERS E31I-LOYED.

1890
189G.
Increase under McKinley administration
WAGES PAID.
Fiscal year.
1900
Ifc9(i
Increase under McKinley administration $519,999,817
An army of two million more wage-earners, an additioaal pay-roll of
half a billion dollars is the Republican record.
The full dinner pail means more thaa a man's immediate wants; it
means the opportunity to earn and save and prosper.
Think back lour years.

Agents are employed mostly on commission. Their entire membership are always
employed, though not ulways earning wages. Their pay depends eutlreiy on their sales.
Reference to the table of increase of membership of trade unions vill show
that those reporting practically the full membership employed iu 1SJ7 have
experienced a phenomenal increase in membership since that year, clearly dem
onstrating that McKinley prosperity has reached them.

bureau completely disproves the asser

Rryan a False Prophet
'Tf McKinley and the Republican par
ty are successful, and put in power for
the nest four years, wages will be de
creased, hard times will come upon us
and over the land the price of wheat will
go down and the price of gold will go

closed by the money lenders, shops and
factories will close. We will export no
goods and we will import from foreign
lands all the grwds we use; thus will
ruin, want and misery be with us." Wil

New Michigan Factories.
There are in Michigan 1,003 factories
which were not in existence in 1S97.
These factories employ 23,000 people,
whose yearly wages amount to about $1,
r00.000. Of these some had employment
in 1S97, but many had not. The volume
of idle labor has been so decreased that
the lumbermen, though offering higher
wages than they did in 1S9G, find it hard
to get men to work in their camps.

employed in 1S07, 1S9S and 1S99, from
President McKinley a Union Man.
In August. 1S99, President McKinley
was made a member of the Bricklayers'
and Stone Masons' Union of Chicago.
He attended a meeting of the union and
was addressed by President Gubbins of
the union, who said, among other things:
"We know that you are the friend of
the workingman and that you are deeply
concerned in all that concerns him."
President McKinley in reply said, in
concluding hi9 remarks:
"The word I would leave with you is
this: Improve all the advantages and op
portunities of this free government. Your
children, your families, your boys and
girls, are close to your heartstrings, and
my word is to avail yourselves for your
children of the splendid opportunities for
schooling under our excellent free school
system. Give them the best education
you can. That is the best equipment for
American citizens. (Applause.) Intelli
gence and integrity will win their way
anywhere. I don't want you to establish
hostile camps and divide into classes. I
do not want to see walls against your
boys and girls. (Cheering). I wotdd see
no barrier in the way of their ambition
to occupy the highest places in this free
government. (Long-continued applause
and cheering.)
"But now I must stop I must leave
you. I leave you with my very best
wishes and good will, and I go with the
prayer that you may always continue to
secure good employment at good wages.
I know that these things will bring into
your homes love and contentment." (Con
tinuous cheering.)

"Well," continued Mr. Murphy, "it's

still able to blow his bazoo. 'Got a gov

native. 'Yes, sor,' says the native.
Wal, I'm asin it.' said the fi ller."
"See here, Mr. Murphy," said Simon,
"it is nearly time to retire. Our bouse
is rather limited. nt:d I guess you'd bet
ter go on and stay some other place.
CHAPTER IX.
Healing of the Breach.
In srie of Simon's protestations.
Mr. Murphy, the Irish traveler, suc
ceeded in spending the uitrht at the
Grey residence, and in the morning,
with jolly good humor, weut his way.
"That's just the kind of follows that
are In favor of expansion, Ezra." said
Simon. "What does he know about
such things?"
"It may be. Simon, that he Isn't fa
miliar with the knowledge cf books,
but his good common souse, in "pite of
bis ignorance, has kept him on the side
of our most intelligent men."
"Ezra Grey! Who can you point out
among our nation's noted men that
wore expansionists";"
"Well. Simon, there were George
Washington, Thomas Jefferson, An
drew Jackson, and many others."
"Why," said Simon, in astonishment:
"Jefferson and Jackson were Demo
crats." "To bo sure they were, but they nrust
have been in favor of pn expansion
policy, for during their administration
our country exp;uid:'d greatly. Wash
ington was an expansionist and yet th
Democrats and Populists say they arc
standing iu lino with him."
"When the Titir(-h::e of Louisiana
was agreed tip.n through the treaty
mad? by President Jefferson with
Bonaparte, the ami - expansionists
fought it on the ground that the Con
stitution made no provision for our
holding 'foreign territory. But in spite
of the people that fought the idea, hr
purchased Louisiana, thereby adding
over a million square miles to the area
of this nation. If the anti-expansionists
of the day bad prevailed, that vat
area west of the Mississippi would to
day be a foreign country, and the
United States an inferior power.
"Now, let's look at General Jackson-,
the Democratic idol. Without author
ity from the government at Washing
ton, ho invaded I'loriila and demon
strated the fact that it was completely
at the mercy of the United States. Its
cession to us by Spain, was largely due
to his persistence. He looked into the
future, and saw the advantage of our
possessing a coast line to the Gulf.
Jackson was an expansionist.
"When Texas asked for annexation
to the Union, the Democratic party
was in power. The Whigs bitterly op
posed the proposition.
"We annexed Texas, defeated Mexi
co, and by the treaty of peace In 1S-1S
secured the Immense area now occupied
by California, Nevada. Utah, part of
Colorado, New Mexico and Arizona, and
made tue Pacific our Western bound
ary. Had the anti-expansionists had
their way, Texas would now be a for
eign country, and this area just de
scribed would be a part of Mexico, in
stead of the United Mates. Then I
might go on and explain how the antl
expanslonlsts howled when the govern
ment purchased Alaska. They thought
it was awful, yet see how well Alaska
has paid us. I tell you, Simon, we can
not expand too much. What would
Great Britain be, one of the mightiest
nations of the globe, were it not for her
colonial possessions '!"
"Well, Ezra, you never can convince
me that the Philippine war Is right.
You might argue all your breath away,
and I would still think McKinley was
making a great mistake."
"Now, Simon, I want to call your at
tention to the fact that the Democrats
in Congress pushed McKinley into the
Spanish war. They were the war party.
