NOTES FROM THE EDITORS.

AS the presidents regal yacht is
ordered out Of commission in October,
there is promise that the empire will
cease to be in November.-St. Louis
Republic.
The administration would be JUS
titled in reprimanding zen. Funston
for advocating an advance in the pay
of soldiers just before election.-De-
troit Free Press.
The public is giving a great deal
of attention to that part of Judge
Parker's letter Of acceptance which re-
lated to government expenditures. This
is always a warm question If 1t is prop
erly agitated. Heavy expenditures make
high taxation. The more costly the
government establishment the more
friction is there on the tariff and other
economic observation-disclosures En-
quirer.
Mr.. Cortelyou," says the Wash
ington Post, has not added ~elocution
to his other accomplishments" And
yet when Mr.. Cortelyou requests the
corporations to shell cut, he speaks
with a clearness Of endnciation, a force
of emphasis and a completeness Of ef-
feet that cauld be equalled by only one
other man in the countryside man
who cut out Cortelyou's work FOR him.

AND COST OF LIVING
Pay of Workingmen Not Raised to
Offset Price Of Neces-
saries.

The increased cost Of living since
1897 is a sure sign of prosperity, &C
cording to Secretary Shaw, but to those
who have to pay the bills, it is a very
serious proposition. Wages advanced
somewhat from the lowest point in
1897, but since 1902 have again de-
clined, although prices are still at
nearly the highest point. Lyman W.
R~edington, of Vermont, speaking at a
meeting of the Commercial Travellers
league in New York, stated that the in
creased cost Of provisions since 1897,
equalled 43 per cent. If anyone has
had his wages increased since 1897 AZ
per cent. he is lucky, but the official
report of the interstate commerce COM
mission for 1908, shows that the great
est increase in wages of railroad en-
ployes, excluding general officers, from
1897 to 1908. was only IA per cent.
When the maximum increase in wages
is only one-third Of the increased cost
Of living, it would be difficult to per-
suade anyone, but a republican poll
tician, that the Dingley high tariff law
is as of much benefit to the people as it
has undoubtedly proved to trusts and
monopolies

THE TIDE.
MISSOURI

The tide runs down unto the sea
AT pace no human pow'r can stem,
But wait a bit and thou shalt see
The tide as quick return again.
30 runs the tide of life indeed,
Sometimes its rapid downward sweep
Gains as it goes at awful speed
But who can say its course will keep?
And who can say the whirling soul,
Replete with error though it be,
Will not at last reach fairer goal
Than that which seems fits destiny?
Toe late? Since downward sweeps de-
find
Oh, say not so. unkindly world!
The tide may change. As God is kind,
And lifts what man has downward
hurld!
Aye. man has downward hurld when he
Refuses aid to drowning good
Submerged far more as 1t doth see
No help to fight, If fight it would,
No one to give a helping hand,
All going by the other way.
Oh, help the fallen one to stand,
Nor simply far off for him pray!
Come near n next the gasping form
Whirld'd in the torrent of sin,
Teach him that hope is forlorn,
Although the stream he ann swim.
Aye, foil the tide tho it seem hard
(For it seems harder thar it Isl,
The proefer'd hand may save the marr'd!
There Is ne miracle in this!

CAPTURE FREAK RECRUITS.
Converts to Republican Doctrine Over
Whom There Is Not Much
Growing.

The republicans have made two
notable converts in this campaign,
and yet their orators do not crow, nor
their organs enthuse over the advent
of ex-United States Senator Rfeffer,
the great populist, and Alexander
Dowie, the great Il am crank, of Chi
cago, into the ranks Of the G. o. p.
t'hey declare that it is Roosevelt that
allures them to join a leader who can
appreciate their idiosycrasies and re-
ward them If success crowns their eff
forts. 1t shows something of the uni
versatility of the genius Of Col. Roose-
welt when he draws to him ]. Pier
pont Morgan, the millionaire trust
man, and the .ong-whiskered populist
from Kansas, and the New Zionite,
who, If not n fraud, must be crazy.
About all the freaks heard from are
supporting Col. Roosevelt, SO if the
Lincoln republicans are leaving the
republican party in droves, others are
taking their places, and it is numbers
that count. On election night we shall
know whether the freaks have the ma
jority

The Easy-GOing English.

There is one word you will hear In
England all the time wherever you go
the word holiday. All England, win
ter, spring, summe and autumn, talks
holiday. Holiday, l ask myself, from
what? Judged even by the most easy
going of American standards, life in
England seems pretty we'll all holiday,
and the annual August respite from
work rather a elimination than an ex-
ception. Take an American, Of what
eve trade or profession, dump him
down on England, and his first i'm
preston and his last will be, "These
people do not know what work is"
Everything is against their knowing
it. 1t is the leisure class that rules,
that makes UP society, that holds all
the positions men naturally covet. l
thought it not unsymptomatic of En-
gland when, being in a town of 1000
or 5000 inhabitants the other after

Thursday afternoon, and Thursday in
that particular town is 'early-closing''

HE is A DANGEROUS MAN.
The Republican President Often Has
to Recede from Positions
Hastily Taken.

When the New York Sun declared
that President Roosevelt was a more
dangerous man than Bryan, it spoke
the truth, though it is now support
ing this dangerous mar for president.
All the abuse heaped upon Mr.. Bryan
was not on account Of his radicalism.
but because the m%onopolists feared the
people who were back of Mr.. Bryan.
The fact is that Mr.. Bryan is not near
ly as radical as Roosevelt, and has al
ways been more consistent. Mr.,
Roosevelt has one great asset that Mr..
Bryan does not possess-he is a much
more consummate politician. Roosea
welt car change his political ideas In
the twinkling of an eye, if it suits his
purpose. Bryan is more set in his con-
victions, and is n Of the most diff
cult men to convince that he is wrong
when he has made up his mind he is
right. There is no Davy Crockett
about Roosevelt. He does not daily
over a question first, to be sure he is
right before going ahead, but just rips
out a reply without time to fully form
his words. He, therefore, Las often
to recede from positions he takes, and
sometimes makes a worse mess of a
matter than if he had stayed by his
first determination. So the New York
Sun wa eminently right when it i'm
parted the information that President
Roosevelt was a dangerous man, and
the Sun, being such a staunoh repub-
lican paper, made the remark the more
noticeable.

A MODEL CANDIDATE
Democratic Leader Is True to His
Party ana an Incorruptible
Judge.

When a mar is the candidate for the
highest Office in the gift of the American
people, he is thrown under the X-rays
OF public scrutiny. All his goings and
comlngs are Investigated, his private
lie Is sifted and his past and present
utterances are weighed, to try and find
out his inmost thoughts and opinions.
II is a great triumph for the democracy
that its candidates for president and
Vlce-president have passed through this
hrey ordeal unscathed and are shown to
be of the highest type of manhood and
as individuals are worthy the support
OF all honest men who desire decent
government.
Judge Parker is a true democrat. He
was the political and personal friend of
the great Tilden, of the superb Hancock
and the other imposing figures Of DEM
ocratic history. His position as chief
justice OF the court of appeals of New
York has brought before him for de-
c1sion many important cases involving
the relations of capital and labor, and
the good judgment and absolute fair
ness he has displayed has endeared him
to the public and the bar alike.
An able and ~incorruptible Judge, what
higher praise could be given, what
greater recommendation to the voters
OF the United States to give him their
SURFACES. A great constitutional law
yer, he believes in constitutional gov
eminent and would execute the law Of
the land without fear or favor. Con-
sentative from nature and training,
there would be no usurping the legis-
lative or judicial functions of the gov
eminent while he was the executive.
He would call to his aid the ablest DEM
ocrats that are available for his cab
met officers and the United States would
enter upon a term of peaceful prosperity.
as far as human sagacity can aid the
efforts of a united and energetic people.

When u Man Is Poor.

A man is poor when he has lost the
confidence of his friends, when people
who are nearest to him do not believe
IN him; when his character is honey
combed by deceit, punctured by dis
honesty. He is poor when he makes
money at the expense of his character,
when principle does not stand clear
cut, supreme in his idea. When this
is clouded, he is in danger Of the worst
kind OF poverty. To be in the poor
house is not necessarily to be poor. II
you have maintained your integrity,
If your character stands f%oursquare to
the world, il you have never bent the
knee of principle to avarice, you are
rot poor, though you may be COM
PEELED to beg bread.-Orison SWEET
Marden, in Success.

REPUBLICAN SLDE-SHOW.
Populists Are Evidently Working for
the Success of the Roose-
welt Ticket.

Where all the money comes from to
pay the expenses of the populist cam
paign is no longer a mystery. Tom
Watson has just finished a trip through
New Jersey on a special train, like a
millionaire, and his speeches all have
the aim of defeating the democratic can
didates. He makes his appeal specially
to Jeffersonian democrats and does not
invite republicans to vote for him. All
this is pretty fair evidence that he is
working for the success of the repub-
lican ticket. The populist national COM
mittee in the two previous national
campaigns did not have enough cash
subscribed to pay for printing literature
and yet there were ten populists then
to one now. Where does the thousands
of dollars come from that the populist
committee and candidate are now spend
ing, if not directly, or indirectly, from
the republican campaign fund which the
trusts are furnishing.
In the state of New York the populists
did not cast enough votes at the last
election to entitle the ticket to a place
on the official ballot. The law requires
that petitions must be signed by so
voters in each county in the state to
entitle a ticket to be printed on the Off
cial ballot. The populists could not ac-
complish that, for in many counties
there are not so populist voters. Rep
resentatives of the republican state ON
mittee accommodatingly took the mat
ter in hand and a contract was made
with four men" says the New York
World, "to take charge of the canvass
ing" In some counties the signatures
obtained were all republican voters.
Although the nomination papers are
a palpable fraud, the democrats will
content themselves with publishing the
bogus lists in the newspapers of the re-
spective counties, so as to show up the
fraud. In Albany the republican local
politicians engaged and paid for the hall
in which a populist meeting was held.
The populist ticket this year is thus
shown to be a republican side show a2a
honest voters should steer clear of 1t.
