The Leader is in receipt of a tin can bearing this card : "This can ia made of the first American tin plate made by Norton Brothers, Chicago, December, 1890. Can made by the Norton system of automatic machinery." AVe are also in receipt of a neat office rule, marked, " Compliments of Norton Brothers, Chicago, January 1, 1891." The rule also bears this inscription, "Unequalled facilities for the manufacture of plain and decorated sheet metal goods in quick time and unlimited quantity." 'hauks of the Leader are hereby grateully extended to Messrs. Norton Brothrs. The samples above mentioned are xcellent in quality and superb in style and finish. Every true American will ejoice in the thought that the day is near when the $20,000,000 we have jeen sending abroad annually for tin )late is to be kept at home, expended n an American industry, the American aborer getting the benefit and the Amercan consumer getting his tinware at a essened cost and cheaper prices. Let our democratie free traders keep right along harping about the higher price of the workingman's "dinner pail" and hey will presently have a whole army of workingmen laughing at them. Mciinleyism and Yankee ingenuity are sturdy American products and good enough for us. -
