PRESIDENTS AID
WANTED In ILLINOIS
Will Be Asked to Assist in
Congressional Fight.
Believed That He Would Be Able to
Help His Party Materially
by So Doing.

The Republicans of southern Illinois
desire the presence of the President te
assist them in carrying the three Con-
gressional districts of that portion Of
the State-the Twenty-second, the
Twenty-fourth and the Twenty fifth
In the eapportionment of Illinois these
districts were made quite close politi-
cally.
The Republican State central commit
tee believes that the President will be
able to help his party materially to
carry these districts by going out there
and delivering several of his charac-
teristic speeches. A personal appeal has
been made to Mr.. Roosevelt by Repre-
sentative Hopkins, who is a candidate
for the Senate to succeed Senator
Mason, and eX-Representative Roden-
berg, who resigned from the Civil Ser
vice Commission to run again for Con-
gress against Representative Fred Kern,
and Representative Smith.
Reunion Each Year.
The soldiers of southern Illinois have
reunion each year, and it is proposed
to have the President go there to visit
the encampment and make number OF
speeches. This year the encampment is
to meet at Carbondale during the lat
ter part of September. and as it always
attracts large crowd, the occasion has
been taken to extend an invitation to
the President.
The trust question is said to enter
very considerably into the campaign,
and the Republican managers believe
that something from the President upon
that sGhirgt will materially aid them in
their canvass.

SOUTHERN OFFICERS FOR ARMY
AND NAVY

g. r + I
Sooner or later. If the Republican party
is continued in power. the fate Of the
country may depend upon the strength
of character Of the army and navy OF
the United States. 1t is often said now
adays that the South. the Virg Man ge-
MUS of which produced our form Of gov
eminent, will yet be depended upon to
save our institutions from destruction.
Providence certainly has disciplined this
people in the fortitude and delicacy nee
essaly for such tremendous task.
The South Is the cornerstone of the
nation. Within its wisdom evolved to
their present perfection the massive,
racial. fundamental principles upon which
our marvellous system is based; in its life
there has always been preserved true
understanding of the great charters OF
our liberties. and proper reverence for
them Their influence has made its I'M
press upon generation after generation
until the strength Of tradition alone
would bind US to them. if reason We're
not enough. The South has fought and
bled In proof of her devotion; she died
once for Saxon liberties; but she was
born again in the same old spirit. that
1t might be upheld through an everlast-
ing life
When the South was at its most aris-
tocratic height it held for denocrac y-
equal rights to all. special privileges to
none lf-government, free speech and
ma ority rule. The old-tlme thorough
breds recognized the fact that an arts
tocracy of merit might thrive unhindered.
at its very best, under such conditions.
Cast off artificial restraints and let ma
ture alone. and the best will rise to the
top as inevitably as the spirit asplres
from the body. The troubles of this
country are coming upon US because OF
i too much Law.
Let US encourage our young Southern
men, born and bred to belief in fam
/ lily pride. high character. stable traditions
and the sound principles of our ances-
TORS to offer themselves for appointment
to the military and naval academies. The
army wants able officers. and military
genius has been proved to reside in the
South; the navy is clamoring for quail
fled officers (the Admiral reports that
naval efficiency is seriously threatened
| for lack of them, and from the South
there have come many Of the ablest cap
tains the navy has ever seen.
Let US set the army, and navy into the
contro, OF the South. Let US rouse the
slumbering political genius of the South
and put It back In power.

Wall Street has had another shearing

Stocks which little while ago
were doomed have been sold at q sacri-
nee, and ali sorts OF absurd rumors about
Impending disasters have been atloat
Some people are. therefore. asking them
selves II prosperous times are at an end;
and IL the hard times that they argue

hand? or course. no one can tell what
day may bring forth. but we must say
that there are certainly no special signs

Notwithstanding strikes In the coal re-
gions and consequent loss OF money by
the coal carrying roads. the reports show
that the gross earnings OF railroads In the
United States for the month, Of October
were rs per cent. larger than IN the cor
responding month Of last year. and 14.2
per cent increase over the month OF Oc-
tober of 1900. Be 1t remembered in this
connection that the crops OF this year
are just beginning to be mtved. the cot
ton crop being practically untouched, the
immense corn crop being yet but par
tally touched, and the tobacco crops be-
ing but half delivered, and the real heavy
shipments Just beginning. Coal and iron
shipments. too. that have been held back
for months by the strikes. viii ladd to the
earnings of the railroads.
1t Is fair to presume. therefore, that
the earnings of the railroads Of the coun-
try for the fall and winter months yet
to come VIII show still greater increase.
and We know that when the railroads are
making money the whole country Is pros
pering Instead of waning it looks as
il the sun of the day Of prosperity has
hardly reached the meridian.
In addition to this our export trade
shows gratifying increase. except in the
matter Of grain and iron. The decrease
in grain is. of course. due to the crop fail
use of 1901. and the decrease In iron is due
TO the fact that home consumption has
so enormously increased that the iron
producing concerns have had all that they
could do to keep up with their American
orders.
The very unfavorablc symptom. so far
as we can see. is the large expansion Of
credits. But it must also be considered
that the wealth Of the country has in
creased to a figure that is unprecedented
and inco1nprehensibe.
We have borrowed large sums of money
abroad. but we have the property to show
for it. and all our industries are in a
most fourishing condition Hard times
will come by and by. but when all the
people are profta bly, employed. the coun-
try can run for long time By its own
momentum. and there are many bright
days ahead.
