DEMOCRATS AS A MENACE.

III asking the American people to in
dorse this republican record and to renew
their commission to the republican party,
we remind them Of the fact that the men
ace to their prosperity has always resided
In democratic principles and no less in the
general ~incapacity Of the democratic party
to conduct public affairs. The prime es-
of business prosperity is public con-
fdence in the good sense Of the govern
ment n in it's ability to deal intelligently
with each new problem Of administrator
and legislation. Tina confidence the DEM
ocratic party has never earned. 1t is hope.

Davis should have stayed with the

words for the heroes who want
somebody else to go over and lick
the stufing out of the Filipinos.
These same papers are demanding
that Davis refund salary that ac-
crued to him as Secretary while he
was in Boer land looking up his
roasts for their party; but they think
he was right in drawing the same
salary while stamping Ohio for the
republicans last fall.
