The Administration newspapers and
spellbnders are busy nowadays tell
ing the people how they have "old Gen
eral Apathy on the run" This may
be true, but those who hold to the con-
trary seem to be well justified In their
skepticlsm. The fact Is that the apathy
which appears to be so general this
year is of type that cannot be stam-
peded by red fire and hurrahs. 1t is
not apathy nor Indifference at all, but
evidence Of the fact that the great
majority of the nations voters have
made up their minds as to the issues
of the campaign and have decided how
to vote, so that to all effective pur-
poses the campaign may be regarded
as closed. The exciting and demon
strative part of the campaign is well
begun, but aside from changing few
wavcring votes which can be reached
In no other way, 1t will accomplish
nothing. The issues before the people
are of such nature that they have
had plenty of time in which to form
their convictions free from the dis
tressing clnmor Of the campaign. The
campaign committees will make their
respective claims of victory with their
usual confidence, and what they lack
In assurance will be overcome by the
noise and strength of their predictions,
but to the intelligent voter the result
will remain In doubt until the votes
are counted.

The Democrat is a newspaper be-

Democrat would say so. A party
organ that willfully misrepresents
the facts in regard to its party's op-
ponents not only forfeits for itself the
confidence of the reading public, but
confesses that the cause it pretends to
advocate is very lame and precarious
in the favor of the people.

That's Why the Ex-Attorney General
Will Help Bryan.

Columbus, o., Oct. S.-(spl)-Ex-
Attorney General +. S. Monnett has fin
ally consented to take an active part
in working for Mr.. Bryan. A big
mass meeting has been arranged for by
leading members of various labor Or
ganizations, which will be addressed
by Mr.. Monnett, President James r.
Sovereign of the American Federation
of Labor and Vice President Valentine
Fitzpatrick of the Order of Railway
Trainmen. The meeting will be held
in the big auditorium in Columbus,
and will be in charge Of u committee
of 100 labor leaders, representing the
various unions of this city.
The meeting is to be held next Fri
day night, and is openly in the inter
est of Mr.. Bryan. This will be Mr..
Monnett's first appearance on the
stump this year, and on this occasion
he will throw his influence on the
side Of Mr.. Bryan's cause. The defec-
tion from the Republican party of such
n leader as Mr.. Monnett Is keenly felt
by the State committee, which realizes
that, on account of his fearless efforts
to enforce the law against combina'
tions of capital, he has made himself
an enviable reputation and has ac'
quired great influence among the
thinking men of all classes.

CAMPAIGN OPENING

THE opening of the Democratic
campaign In Akron, Friday, was of a
very frosty nature.
Hon. j. L. Altgeld was the man to
whose tender mercies the Democratic
State committee had entrusted the
opening OF the campaign In Akron and
Summit county, and the Democrats of
Akron extended the frosty nit to
the fiery Altgeld, In a way that was
not at all pleasing to the self-appoint-
cd boss and the rest of the powers that
be. The meeting was held In Assembly
hall, which by crowding Will probably
hold 1000 people, seated and standing,
But It wasn't crowded by any means,
and nobody had 10 stand In order TO
hear Mr.. Altgeld talk. 1t was not q
partisan audience that listened to the
Illinois Democrat, many Republicans
going out Of curiosity, thinking that
they would hear one of the fiery, an.
archistc speeches which are character
istlc Of the friend of the Haymarket
rioters. But the strenuous kick of the
local Democratic committee had had
its effect, and the speech delivered by
Mr.. Altgeld was toned down to tho
proper point for an Akron audience y
And edItorially the Beacon's com
ment is to the same effect.

''fair profit" on its products and

The Cattle Outlook.

A Star reporter has enterview-
ed several cattlemen in the past
few days and the report agrees
that varying in quantity in diff
ferent localities, there IS grass
and water enough to keep cat
tie until about Christmas to
February 1st.
AS it is too late to look for
any benefit to the ranges from
fall rains; cattlemen will, in the
near future, be confronted with
the problem of caring for or dis
posing of their holdings, with
little hope of being able to hold
for the want of feed.
Questions regarding the pro-
posed regrassing of the range
by the government, they all
agree that it is a good idea, but
some are doubtful about the sue
cess OF the plan. as it will be
hard to keep the cattle off the
new grass, even if cattlemen
were willing to take the trouble
to drive their stock to new
ranges. Although the outlook
for the cattle industry Is not
encouraging for the near future.

Within'the last fifty years the
world has witnessed a complete
revolution in our means of pro-
duction. Our material relations
have all changed. Machinery
has taken the place of muscle to
a very large extent in the pro-
duction of every article of ne
cessity, comfort and luxury, and
and the progress in this direc-
tion is still going forward at an
accelerated ratio. Labor is be-
ing continually displaced by
labor saving devices, and the
saving is added to the profits of
the owner of the machinery and
the prospect for the toiler is
growing more discouraging.
Millions have been entirely sub
merged by their inability to keep
themselves employed and other
millions who have been able to
retain employment, find no re-
lease from excessive toll because
their labor will produce more.
but on the contrary they are
threatened with a constantly
lowering standard of living from
reduced wages. The few who
have secured monopoly of the
machinery of production and
distribution are daily becoming
more arrogant and exacting.
This condition of affairs cannot
last, and wisdom demands a
speedy Improvement, if we as
people would avoid the most
disastrous consequences .-Equi-
