Our farmers were never more prosperous than now. and the workingmen were never in a better condition. and yet "calamity howlers" throughout the country who have never produced anything except "hot air" are trying to make them think that they are downtrodden and in a worse condition than any people on earth. I deny the imputation. I reiterate that the American people as a whole are the most prosperous and enlightened people on the face of the globe. They are so because of the policies -f this Government and because foreign Governments are not permitted to make a dumping ground of America for shoddy goods. wares. and merchandise. made by cheap coolie and convict labor. We want to purchase Americanmade goods. even if we pay a little bit more for them. Workingmen. what about your clothes?
