The Foolish Calf.

When Senator Hanna spoke ut Youngs-
town, Ohio, recently. he told story of
a calf that left its mother to run after
u steer. Secretary Heath has taken up
this idea and developed it into cam
paign poster which very artstically de-
picts Senator Hanna's idea. The calf is
seen chasing the steer in the distance;
the COW is in the foreground sauntering
quietly home. while the boy stands with
uplifted fist shaking it at the calf. say
ing, "You little fool. you little fool, you
DID fool, you'll be sorry when supper
time comes"
The picture is entitled The Foolish
Calf, or Lesson TO Labor" and stand
ing by fence in front of cottage are
a farmer and woman, the man with a
full dinner pail in his hand. This poster
is sure TO catch o. and is likely to be a
good vote getter.
When Senator Hanna arrived in Chi
eago this week 1t was shown to him and
surprised him. He had no idea that Mr..
Heath had been developing his story.

MOUNTAIN STATES
TURN TO kl'KIHLEY.
Prosperity the Cause or the
Welcome Change.
No One Tears Imperialism" While All
Are Proud Of the Records Made
by tie Army and Navy.
By George l.. Shoup, United States Sem
ator from Idaho)

By George l.. Shoup, United States Sen
ator from Idaho.)
There are many reasons which impe
| the voters of the mountain States to sup
port the nominees and the policy of the
Republican Party this fall. One WORD
more than any other explains the position
of our people in this support and that
word is confidence.
The record of the Republican party is
record Of fulfilled promises.
The first act OF the party after its re
turn to power was the enactment of the
Dingley tariff law, which again placed us
on a-protection basis.
Take for example the benefits which
have accrued to my own State, idaho.
Among our principal industries are min
ing, cattle and sheep growing and farm
ing.
The great lead mines Of the State are
working every man possible at wages of
$3.50 per day OF eight hours. During
the three years of President Mckinley S
administration the value OF the lead pro-
duced in the State was $1i, COS, while
during the last three years of President
Cleveland's administration the total value
was only $500. 151.
Our sheep have advanced in price from
$1.15 to $3.50 per head, gain to the
people Of the State of over three million
dollars In the value of the sheep alone.
In the year 1896 the wool clip Of Idaho
was valued at $442,6S5, while for the
year 1900 it is estimated that it will bring
to the wool growers of the State ST.
800, 1000.
- - Il.
number of cattle in the State is 500, 900.
They have increased in value on an aver
age Of SIS per head, making the cattle
men at least seven and one-hslf million
dollars richer than they were three years
ago. The increase in the price of horses
Of $40 per head has also added between
one and two million dollars to the wealth
of the State.
The voters OF this State and of the
other mountain States are not blind to
these facts, and on election day they will
give earnest evidence OF their confidence
in the party whose policy has so enriched
and prospered them.
We Of the West are proud of the
achievements of our army and navy in
the war with Spain. The patriotic posi-
ton of the Republican party in declaring
for the retention OF the territory so gal
lantly won from Spain appeals to our
people.
They do not fear imperialism" for We
have never met an American who was
an imperialist. am in receipt of let
tiers from many men WHO have never yot-
ed anything but Democratic ticket. but
who will vote for Mckinley and Roose-
welt on this issue alone.
You can count ON the electoral vote of
Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Utah. Wyo-
ming and perhaps Montana and Colorado
for Mckinley and prosperity.

Every True De ocrat Can Take No

(By Ahram 5. Hewitt Of New York, for
merly Mayor and Member of Congress)
The political situation at this time 10
of very different character from that,
which presented itself four years ago. At!
that time it seemed possible to maintain
distinct Democratic organization, based
upon the fundamental principles enun-
ciated by jefferson, and which had con-
tinued to govern the party in all previous
presidential elections. The recent con-
vention held at Kansas City has, how
ever, rendered all such expectations hope
less. The party which calls itself Demo
cratic is in reality Populistic. and based
upon doctrines which, If carried into eff
feet, would produce political anarchy.
You ask whether l believe in the coin

DEAR BOY LETTERS, NO. 9.

Ny Dear Boy:
You say that you are tired Of working
for old man Skinner, and are thinking OF
going West this fall, where wages are
higher. You ask what ! think about it.
Well, / have no objection to your going
West, but don't want you to go till after
the election. This is the first time in
your life that you ever had an opportu-
nifty to exercise your right as an Amer
lean citizen in voting for President Of
the United States. 1 don't want you TO
lose your vote for the following reasons:
/. The only possible chance of the elec-
tion OF Bryan comes from the oyer-conti-
dence of Republicans. 1t makes me sad
to hear o man say, "Oh, Mckinley is
going to be elected. anyhow. There is no
danger. l have arrangements made to be
In California in November, but you won't
need my vote
Especially do I regret to hear talk of
this kind among some of the railroad

up unanimously to the support Of Me
Kinley and the Republican party, that
class is composed OF the railroad men of
this country. Four years ago there were
thousands Of cars sidetracked, no build
Ing and but little repairing going on,
and general stagnation in the railroad
business. Now new roads, new roadbeds,
new cars, the roads crowded with trains,
full time and better pay bless the rail
road men of this country. And it vexes
me 10 hear a railroad man say, Il would
have to lay oil day to vote, and | guess
I'll not do that. There will be plenty to
elect Mckinley without me-" Well, IL
by any possibility Mckinley should be
defeated just such men as that will have
themselves TO blame.
2. No American voter has any right to
stay away from the polls or to lose his
vote IL II cen possibly be avoided.
My son, you are one of the sovereigns
of the United States, and you have no
more right TO neglect the duties pertain
ing to your high calling than the Emperor
OF Germany has to neglect the govern
ment OF that mighty empire. To vote is
a matter Of inestimable privilege, aud
also matter OF earnest, conscientious
duty.
Two years ago you enlisted to fight for
your country as a soldier, but the sur
geon turned you down and would not let
you go. I sympathized with YOU in the
bitterness OF your disappointment. l
knew that love OF country led you TO
enlist, and 1 was proud because you
wanted to go. And think that the sur
geon was little over-particular. You
would have made a good soldier. But |
want you TO realize that you serve your
country as truly when you cast an honest
ballot as II you We're soldier in the
