It will be most needed where production is most abundant and the largest purchases are made. And how shall we stimulate our production to its utmost limit? We can do it only by protecting the labor of our people by wholesome laws from unrestricted competition with the products of the pauper labor of other nations. and we can not do that except by protecting the industries in which our working people are engaged and by which they live. [Applause on the Republican side."T This the Republican party has done for the last thirtytwo years. and in that time we have seen the nation grow in wealth and power. in comforts of life for the people. in progress in every desirable line as it had never grown before. as no other country has grown since the dawn of history. The gentleman from Nebraska says. " Let us apply the remedy to the disease." I heartily indorse his proposition. Indeed. unless we do apply the remedy to the disease the patient will never be cured.
