At thi-> he mustered up a company of his own and drille 1 the men. so as lo have them in read ines>ia cntof an emergency. Upon the same occasion he made a sj»eech from which the following is verbatim and substantiated by affidavits: Were I the Gov, I'd force those men back to work or shoot them down on tbe spot. I pon another occasion, dwr iuLf the same trouble, he declared in a speech that A dollar a day and two meals are enough for any working man." Knights of Labor through the State officially petitioned for his defeat in the last Senatorial contest, and at Chicago the laboring classes by the hundreds were found working for his defeat and in the interest of (Jresham." "Tho.-e men whom .Mr. Harrison so coolly proposed to shoot down were American workingmen. who were guilty of no violence and of no offence except being engaged in a ( strike to obtain living wages from the rich corporations they served. They w re Mr. Harrison's own neigh bors, and among their number were doubtless many men who had voted for him for office and to whom he now appeals to vote for him again. Thev asked lor nothing more than 1 . . what they considered to be fair wa j'es for their work. The answer of ° the zealous representative of the cor poration- with which they were con tending was that they should be forced back to work upon the corpo ration- terms, or hhot down on the spot if they refused to work.
