Wonders Never Cease.

the Scientific American describes a
machine that will do the work Of Sec
ton gangs on railroad in leveling and
trimming the roadbed and preserving
the proper width. level and slope that
is required on standard roads. This
work is usually done by hand labor,
and it requires some skill to do it cor
rectly. but now the machine invented
by Mr.. Frank Barr, assistant general
manager Of the Boston & Maine rail-
road is throwing the laborers into a
panic all along the line. Space pre-
vents giving detailed description of
this new colossal labor displacing tool.
1t is only necessary to mention that a
30 mile section VAS trimmed with the
car in four days recently, whereas the
same work, If done in the same time
BY hand, would have required the en-
ployment of 375 men. As il was, the
force required, in addition to the loco
motive, consisted OF trial crew, a
foreman and four men. In word,
there is saving, or displacement, of
30 per cent in cost Of labor. No donbt
the section hands will stand alongside
OF the tracts for while and say, "you
can't do it" but the fact remains that
this new tool will take its place by the
side Of the mammoth coal and ore
bumpers. sewer diggers, mining and
hosting machinery, etc.

An Eastern paper puts the trust
problem before its readers in this terse
wav:
When your wife pays so per cent
more for broom. so per cent more
for a tin bncket. 35 per cent addition
for coal oil, 80 per cent more for coal,
30 per cent more for all kinds Of
canned goods, ask yourself whether you
will again vote the ticket made by the
trnst party in order that the trusts
may be empowered to rob you.
1t may be well for readers of the Dis
patch TO ponder well the question, also.
Every head Of family is daily made
aware of a material increase in the
cost OF maintaining his household.
while corresponding increase in the
price of labor, or the products me has
to sell. There is cause for this con-
ditfon of affairs. What is il? The
Democracy claims that il is caused by
the tendency Of the Republican party
toward Capitalization Of power, the
accumulation OF capital in the hands
of the few and the choking off Of
individual effort. The time is APP
preaching when the people must sit in
judgment to decide the question for
their own veal or woe whether they
want the trust to wax stronger and
stronger, and finally throttle all minor
industries and tax the poor man out
of existence or whether we shall have
government of the people, by the
people and for the people. "Look
we'll to your ballot"

To the Average American Citizen

What is the use of talking over
niceties of imperialism" or If
nance" or banking policies?"
" by not look at the big facts?
If bull is chasing you across
the field you do not hesitate as to
what you shall do. You don't
theorize as to the bulls breed or
color.
You get out Of the way.
This election is the most dis tinct
case of big issues that has ever been
known in American politics.
Take just two facts:
The Republican party protects
and encourages a system that in a
very few years would lay you open
to be drafted for army service to
build up noble and gallant fighting
gentlemen officers of the Roosevelt
stamp.
Do youwant that?
Do youwant that? Or do you
want the right to say whether you
will be a soldier or continue as at
present?
One other fact--and please con-
slider it:
The Republican party is piling
on war taxes. 1t adds hundreds of
millions to the national cost and it
REFUSES TO LET THE RICH PAY
THEIR SHARE through an income
tax
You go to the army against your
will. You give up your home for
Fifteen dollars a month-and your
brother or uncle working for wages
at home has the pleasure of being
taxed to pay that salary.
The man with a hundred mil
lions who uses you to open Chinese
markets for his petroleum, or steel
rails, or canned meat, draws his
full income, with never tax upon
it to help out the war expenses.
The DEMOCRATIC PARTY is
AGAINST big standing army.
1t is in favor Of letting a man
stay at home and live to suit him
self.
And it is IN FAVOR of heavy
INCOME TAX, which shall force
the rich to pay their share.
We cay to You kindly that if you
vote for Republicanism this fall you
will deserve the foolish feelings that
will afflict you before McKinley's
second term shall end.
Vote like sensible man. Take
the government away from Hanna
and Rockefeller and the other prize
