A VOTE FOR PROSPERITY.

A majority OF the people OF the
First congressional district may have
long voted the Democratic ticket.
Why? Doubtless because they have
been raised to it, not because they
think it is best for the country. But
it is time to begin voting for what is
advisable and necessary for the prog.
ress and prosperity of the people.
The Democrats, in this present con-
gressionsl campaign, simply abuse the
Republicans They lay at the party's
door the blame for everything from
tint eruption of Mont Pelee to the coal
strike.
Yet the Republican party has al
ways been, and always Will be, the
mainstsy of the nation. The greatest
men Of past years have been Republl-
cans, and the greatest men Of today
are Republicans, The country was
never in q more prosperous condi-
ton than now, and it is due to the
judicious administration of Republi-
cans. Look at these facts, taken by
the Chicago Tribune from Brsdstreet's
and Dun's weekly reviews:
Anything with iron in it finds ready
sa,s.
Building material is active, and
lumber leads in aggressive strength.
Industrial activity is greater than at
any recent date.
Many new factories and mills have
been added to the productive capacity.
Despite the rapid development OF
TRANSPORTATION facilities, the nation
needs have grown still faster.
Large crops are being harvested.
Retail trade is large, with bright
outlook.
There has been an advance Of 23 pei
cent in bank exchanges at New Yorl
over the same week last year.
Railway earnings exceed those o
last year by per cent, and those c
1900 by is per cent
Railways are in great need of new
locomotives and other equipment
No sign of weakness is seen in leath
or. Prices of hides are firm
Producers of boots and shoes are in
sisting on full prices
Textile mills are well occupied.
There is a demand for higher elias
of goods In dry goods, clothing, shoes
millinery and groceries.
Advices as to crops of cereals, fruit
and tobacco are most encouraging.
Wheat and corn are higher
The situation in wool and woolel
goods is favorable to sellers.
Western mills will only sccep
orders for rails to be delivered in tn
last quarter of 1908.
July imports OF iron and steel
owing to the inability of home mill
to fill orders-exceed 100, 600 tons.
The shortage Of fuel, especially o
coke, still exasperates the iron trade
1t is due principally to the lack of car
and the overorowding of the railroad
with other business.

The fallacy of arguments that the
tariff should be removed from hard
coal as snre for the coal strike or a
preventive of future coal famines in
this country is apparent. Tariff is i'm
posed ON hard coal not oaly for the
revenue it affords, bot in order that
when such coal Is shipped to this
country 10 be sold in competition with
the hard coal mined here, the tariff
that will have TO be paid before it
can be placed On the market and
sold will make the price so high that
the owners of such coal cannot AFT
ord, or do not desire to pay it, or IL
they do American mine owners can
easily underssll them. The tariff on
coal has conse quently limited the sup
ply in past years in this country by
keeping foreign coal out, and resulted
in better price for the home product,
which enabled the owners Of the
mines to keep more men at work and
pay them more money for 1t. There
is an agitation at present over the poor
miner and what he should be paid.
For heavens sake, il he was not getting
enough when he quit work, what do
the people who are olsmoring for re-
moval of the tariff on coal think he
should get should the tariff be taken
of and foreign coal flood the market,
to overstock the country and pull
down the price?

The Democrats have not found in
the trusts very much of an issue in the
present campaign, because they know
that the Republicans have been the
only ones who have really done any
thing towards abolishing them. The
Republican convention of 1888 was
the first that ever attempted to stay
the progress of these big oombins-
tions commonly known rs trusts. Sec.
Rotary Shaw, in recent speech, de-
clared that the only antitrust bill
ever signed by president of the
United States was signed by Presi-
dent Benjamin Harrison, and Presi.
dent Roosevelt is today doing more
towards destroying the power Of the
trusts than any other president ever
did. This leaves the Democrats with
no trust issue. There are national and
state laws against trusts, and the Re-
publicans do everything possible to
enforce them. IL should be under
stood, however, that what are popu-
lsrly called trusts are not trusts at all
under the law. They are gigantic
combinations that may have the same
effect as trust, and yet are not
trusts, and If they are not trusts the
law Of trusts cannot be applied 80
them. The national administration Is
now doing all in its power to find some
way TO dispose of those combinations
that are deemed detrimental 20 the
people, bat no effective way has yet
been found. The plans and remedies
suggested by the Democrats are all
foolish and unavoidable.
