Protection an* Free Trade.
Money is easier and so is wool.
Wages stop where free trade
begins.
Off with free trade! So much
for McKinley.
Free trade is a file; it takes all
and gives none.
Kill protection and American
wages are dead.
Take protection from us and
wages are gone.
Every slice of free trade is cut
in wages.
In the midst of plenty free
trade will starve us.
How they hate American tin.
They hate it more than anything.
The water is bitter that a free
trader drinks out of an American
tin cup.

trade the American worker al

port of prosperity.

Such a letter will cost you two

may cost you all your wages.
You can't catch high wages
with free trade. You can't catch
the markets of the world with
low wages, but with free trade
the markets of the world will
catch you and your wages too.
Free trade clothing is of the
same relation to free trade wool
