Economic labels: La Follette and business ruin
The Detroit Saturday Night argues that La Follette's influence on economics harms industry. It likens La Follette to John Law and Bryan in inflating values through government wage fixing and exposes alleged consequences: fewer factories in Wisconsin, scarce lumber supply in Detroit, and reduced shipping to Mackinac and upper Michigan. The piece claims national standards have shifted away from gold toward foreign influence.
