A STRANGE APPEAL

In the face of the existing trade and
business conditions it is difficult to
understand upon what grounds the
democratic press is demanding a
change of the existing prosperous
state of affairs. With one accord a
cry has been raised asking the in
tellgent voter to elect democratic
congress. AS if answer to this strange
appeal for change the weekly re-
views of both Dun and Bradstreet
have just been issued and an epitome
Of their contents shows the follow.
ing interesting facts:
Industrial activity is greater than
at any date in our history.
The productive capacity has been
increased by an immense number of
new factories and mills.
Railway earnings exceeded those of
last year by per cent, and those of
1900 by Is per cent.
Never before have the textile mills
been so busy and never before have
they employed so many men.
July imports of iron and steel ow.
ing to the inability of the home mills
to fill their orders, exceeded 100000
tons.
Retail trade throughout the coun-
try is larger and brisker than ever
before and the whole outlook is
brighter and producers of boots and
shoes are working their factories
night and day.
Prosperity is still the issue. 1t can
only be maintained by electing men
to congress pledged to fight free trade
and to fight for the protection to the
American working man,

ROOSEVELT VS.. MORGAN.

Ii there has been doubt in the
minds of any as to the position of
President Roosevelt and his determin-
alton to enforce the laws of the Unit
ed States, his reported tilt with J..
Pierpont Morgan on the railway mer-
ger will certainly dispel any such false
ideas. When the money king intimat-
ed to him that he had made mistake
in having his attorney general investi-
gate the merger affair, Mr.. Roosevelt,
in all the fearlessness of his great and
just nature, raised himself up to his
full height and said, Il am neither a
bull nor bear on Morgan stocks.

OF this worlds goods, all that can be
expected is justice in the administra-
ton of laws.
Those who have expected anything
else in the President have, to say the
least, greatly misjudged the man with
whom they have to deal. Theodore
Roosevelt, the man sincere and honest
as private citizen, the champion of
right against corruption as a member
of the New York police board, the eff
ficient and versatile official as assist
ant secretary of the navy, the brave
and fearless leader of the gallant
rough riders in Cuba, the purger of
New York politics of corruption as
governor Of that state, has through all
these various phases of life grown and
developed into Theodore Roosevelt,
the worthy successor of William Nc
Kinley, the statesman, the just and
fearless President of the United
States, the first and typical American
citizen.
Such is the man with whom we
have entrusted the administration of
our affairs.

PLAIN REASONS WHY.

With a fearless President, and right
principles, with prosperity an actual
condition and it's maintenance men.
aced, there is every reason why none
but republican congressman should be
returned to the lower branch of the
highest law-making body in the land
President Roosevelt is unequivocal
ly in favor of:
Reciprocity.
Control of trusts.
Adjustment of tariff schedules with
out reference to trusts.
Democracy advocates with refer
ence to both trusts and the tariff:
Free trade, just that and nothing
more.
If President Roosevelt sdeclarations
stand for anything; if the people be.
lieve that he is the fearless leader
who will do his duty regardless of
friend or foe, the only way to show
this belief is to vote for those con.
gressmen who will support the Presi.
dent in his efforts.
The other road leads to industrial
perdition by the way of indiscrimi-
nate revision.
The issues are momentous. It lis
time to think. Prejudice should not
be taken for reason. This was never
more true than it is this year.

THE ADMINISTRATION AND THE
COAL STRIKE.

Although President Roosevelt,
hands are tied nevertheless he hal
decided to brave possible temporar,
defeat and attempt to bring the anthra
cite coal operators and their employees
together:
If any evidence is needed that Thee
dore Roosevelt is an honest man thi:
is surely corroborative.
Here is the situation:
Theodore Roosevelt has no power in
the premises to put an end to the troi1
BILE. Attorney General Knox says so
There is no law that would enable
him to make law or with which hi
could fortify his actions did he endeav
or to assert authority.
In the face of this; with the posi-
bility of being automatically snubbed
by the coal barons for his interference
Theodore Roosevelt takes it upon him
self to step into the breach, where his
official duties do not call him either di
rectly or by implication, and endeavol
to bring these warning elements to-
gether.
This should put the hall mark on
Theodore Roosevelts honesty of pur-
pose on all public questions with which
he has had to do in the eyes of his
Dolitical enemies
The republican party is ready and
willing to follow President Roose-
velt's lead. This is indicated by Sen.

member of the National Civic Fedora.
ton exhausted every effort tosettle the
difficulty by arbitration. But his per

senator feels strongly about this mat

thing they ought to know Ninety
per cent OF the American people sym

Garden and Governors Island.
Many other experiments were made
in the early years of the nineteenth
century but as stated, it was not until
1851 that the principle was given its
first, commercially, successful applica.

English channel. Soon others were
laid, connecting England, ireland and
the other countries Of Europe. The
story of the work of Cyrus Field and
his associates is known to every
American and how after many years
