date for the presidency \ life of judi
cial monotony and exclusion from polit-
ical affairs does not appeal to the allie
glance OF partisans. Theodore Roosevelt
is strong. a vigorous, an invincible
candidate for the presidency. He is II
man of action nominated for an cleo
torate of Astounding energy, force and
progress. He is, especially, the idol of
the young men of the country.
at is, therefore, not at all surprising
that as the voters contrast these two
candidates they should be irresstibly
drawn to one-to oosevelt-and should
be repealed from or become indifferent
to his antagonist Parker. Such is the
present trend of the campaign and it is
decidedly favorable to President Roose-
welt. No reasonable doubt of his cleo
ton exists or is entertained by anyone
familiar with politics, Democrat or Re
publican"

CANDIDATES COMPARED.
Why Roosevelt IL More Popular than
Parker.

The New York Sunday Democrat,
newspaper that recently bolted Parker
and came out for Roosevelt, in giving
the reasons why the Parker campaign
is languishing and the Roosevelt cam
paign is booming, says:
Judge Parker has few OF the attri-
butes OF popularity; Theodore Roosevelt
has them all.
Parker is tiinid; Roosevelt is brave.
Parker is controlled by friends and
patrons: Roosey cit is independent.
Parker represents no policy and has
no political record; Roosevelt is one Of
the acknn wledged progressive statesmen
Of the century and his record is the rec
ord Of the sunshine years OF militant
and advancing Americanism.
"As there is practically no one to Wig
orously oppose there is no one to active
Iy defend J1dse Parker as a political
standard-bearer. Theodore Roosevelt in
yites the fire Of partisan enemies and at
tracts to his support thousands Of pat
riotic aud earnest admirers.
Judge Parker is a weak candidate, an
unwise candidate, an unfortunate csndi-

UNDULY PUFFED UP.
The Get Rich Quick Democrat Bosses
Are Dragging Too Soon.

Certain Democrats, with the exuber-
ance of the newly rich, are boasting of
the States they are going to carry by
means of their big campaign fund. There
is no telling what may happen, even
with money in the treasury. Only a day
or two ago, one politician from West
Virginia was bewailing certain we'll
proved facts in connection with campaign
money. They are thinking good deal
of campaign money in West Virginia
just now. This particular individual of
the Democratic camp said, in effect, that
West Virginia is likely to 90 Republican
this fall. ''The niggers will all vote the
Republican ticket" he declared, ''those
who are allowed to vote. They'll take
our money and then go and vote the Re
publican ticket straight"
This is a complication Of great import
to our erring brethren of the opposing
camp. 1t was not always thus, but now,
with the Australian ballot, in some form,
in use in many States it is a sad fact
that the riffraff who sell their votes take
the money and then vote as they please.
The Oil trust can put its money into
the Parker campaign fund.- but il cannot
buy even one of its own vast army OF
employees, nor All! Of its victims in the
world OF business.
The Democrats are puffed up over
their fat pocketbook. but it won't help
them in the coming election. The people
prefer to have money in their own peck
cts, honest money which they have been
able to earn themselves in a time OF
prosperity and industrial activity such
as a Republican administration gives

DON'T FORGET CONGRESS.
1t Is Very Important that 1t should
BE Republican.

In the great political contest which
occurs in this country every four years,
and which is now on, the election of
President is apt to overshadow all other
interests. This ought not to be so. The
President is the head of the executive
branch of the government. but the legis-
lative branch is equally as important.
Republicans should remember that 1t is
as important to hold Congress as it is
to elect the President. The election OF
Judge Parker would mean much more
than the induction of his personality into
that high office. His election would mean
the election of a Democratic House of
Representatives, and this would be most
unfortunate, because:
First, the Democratic party, composed
as it is OF all the distracted elements of
the country. is not capable of success
fully administering the affairs OF this
government. 1t has not the capacity to
deal with the great problems that now
confront us. Second, Democratic
House OF Representatives would mean
that the entire legislative machinery OF
that body would be placed in the control
OF the South; the Speaker, the committee
on rules, and all the important commit
tees, as well az the chairmanships OF the
same, would be composed largely Of
Southern men and the great interests Of
the North would be subordinated to
Southern policies. In answer to this 1t
may be said that Democratic House
could do no harm. as the Senate would
still be Republican and could prevent
any unwise or radical legislation. But a
Democratic House could Drpypnt Reuubli-
can legislation, and great harm might
result from that. The election OF Re
publican Congress is scarcely second in
importance to the election OF Republi-
can President.

MONEY FOR LABOR.
Nearly Half a Billion Dollars More
for Wages.

for Wages.
The census of 1900 showed that the
wages of all classes of labor in all the
manufacturing industries of the United
States was $2,322, 1885,. as against ST.
S91, 22S321 in 1904 gain of $431, 1867
$50.
The census reports of wages for labor
and salaries for clerks and officers en-
ployed in manufacturing industries for
the last three decades are as follows:
1900. .S403 T11,233 81, 322, 333, s77
1890. ......... 391 ,9SS, 2OS 1881 ,22S,321
'leso. .......'. ...'''''.. S4''soo'''o
No census taken.
Had these census reports included the
period from 1894 to 1904 the COMPARE
son would be far more striking, for
thousands of workingmen lost their jobs
shortly after the last Democratic admin
stration (1S93-1S97) went into power,
and there were very few workingmen OF
those able to keep their jobs who did not
have to submit to at least some reduction
in wages.
Those were the days when Democracy
piled trouble on to trouble, and seemed
to leave nothing undone that could be
done to bring impoverishment to the
American workingman.
The entire country was made a sort OF
laboratory for original Democratic ex-
Fermentation in various explosive pro-
ducts and by-products. including especial
~ free trade. free silver, free riot and
free soup. 1t mattered not that desola-
ton was brought into thousands of
American homes, that the workingman
and his wife and little ones were pinched
for the necessities Of life, so long as
Democracy was given the chance to ex-
pertinent with the idea of taking the
home market away from American indus
try and giving it TO the foreigner, and
antagonizing business interests by agita-
ton against the gold standard.
After William Mckinley was elected
President and the policies OF protection
and Of sound money once again estab-
lshed, the phenomenal growth of the
United States in wealth and prosperity
attracted the wonder of all civilized ma
tons; and this growth has continued
with accelersting velocity up to the pres
eDt time.
The census OF 1900 recorded this great
upward movement when it was only
about half way to where it is now. or
course, an increase OF nearly half bill
ion dollars in workingrsen's wages does
not concern the workingman alone by
any means. 1t concerns every business
man in the United States. every farmer,
and every woman and child dependent
on the labor of others for their support.
For instance, il the wages Of labor in
manufacturing industries had not in
creased in the millions the per capita
consumption of wheat could not have in
creased from 344 bushels in 1894 to 6.33
bushels in 1904, and the price Of wheat
almost doubled. Prosperity is always
made up Of an almost endless chain Of
circumstances, and 1t is only by having
every link sound and strong that pros
perity for all can be preserved.
