He told of the protection of the

their hands into politics and with
the power of their campaign contri

"The Democratic party believes
that tbis should be changed, and
under the leadership of a man who
has studied tnis tariff question for
eighteen years, we will win this
fight. When the tariff was put on
steel Carnegie was worth ten mil
lion dollars. After three years ope
ration of this law he was worth three
hundred and sixy million. Now he
is giving libraries all ever the coun
try, distributing this wealth they al
lowed him to get from all users of
iron. The Democratic party says to
such men let the people keep their
monev in their pockets and they
will build their own libraries. (Ap
plause.) Out of every $109 that the
man of small means pays for neces
sities of life, $65 goes to the tariff

does not come from the North, the
East or he West; but from the
South, and he is Oscar W. Under

The speaker said that he had met

stating that they were for him, pro
