RAILROAD PROPERTY BENE,
FITS THE PEOPLE

The Illinois Central's total pay roll
for the year ended June 80, 1901, ac-
cording to its annual report just is
sued, showed a gain Of $2,4OO, sos over
the previous year.
This is a significant bit Of testi-
mony as to how times are still improv-
ing under Republican rule, and as to
the absurdity Of the statement Of H.
G. Davis, the Democratic candidate
for vice president, that 1.-THE appre-

The official announcement that the
stockholders of the Pennsylvania Rail-
road company now number 4 ,050-an
increase of So per cent. since May,

in a new quarter to the fact that here
in the United States not only is wealth
increasing, but that 1t Is being more
generally and widely distributed than
ever before.

more stockholders getting better divi-
dends, Is the condition as regards the

The Get-Rich-Quick Democratic Bosses
Are Dragging Too Soon.
Certain Democrats with the exuber-
ance of the newly rich, are Boosting Of
the states they are going to carry hy
means of their big campaign fund.
There is no telling what may happen,
even with money i'll the treasury. Only
d day or i%'o ago, IL politician from
West Virginia was bewailing certain
well-proved facts in connection with
campaign money. They are thinking
a good deal of campaign money in
West Virginia just now. This particu-
lar individual Of the Democratic camp
said, i'll effect, hat West Virginia is
likely to go Republican this fall. THE
niggers will all vote the Republican
ticket" he declared, chose WHO are
allowed to vote. They'll take our
money and then so and vote the Re
publican ticket straight"
This is Il complication of great i'm
port to our erring brethren of the op-
posing 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 riff-raff 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 it can-
not bEy even one of it's own vast army
Of employees, nor any of its victims in
the world of business.
The Democrats are puffed up over
their fat pocketbooks. but it won't help
them in the coming election. The peo-
pie prefer TO have money in their OWN
pockets, honest money which they
have been able to carr themselves, in
a time of prosperity and industrial ac-
tivity such as a Republican administra-
ton gives them.

THE ZIG STICK" LIE

Nonpartisan Testimony That Roosevelt Is
Leader OF Peace Movement.
Apropos Of the silly Democratic
charge that Mr.. Roosevelt is a 'war
lord" 1t is interesting to note how the
Interparliamentary Union views the
president. The union is composed of
some of the leading parliamentarians
of Europe, who visited this country
in the interest Of international arbitra-
ton and peace. The visitors were en-
tertained at luncheon by the Nation
al Civic Federation of New York re
Gently. Here is what Thomas Tough,
an Irish member of the union, in pro-
posing a toast to the president of the
United States, said, as reported by the
New York World, a newspaper that
has been p%icturing Mr.. Roosevelt as
a vcritable god Of war:
We, who are visitors here, after a few
days regard him as a ruler Of one of the
mightiest powers on the earth, who
has taken a more distinct step in the
Interest Of peace than perhaps any
a great ruler himself, but is a worthy
representative Of a great line OF rulers
who have done much for the liberties
Of mankind.
w. Randall-C remer, a noted men,
Der Of the British parliament, also
praised the president. The sovereigns
of Europe, he declared, were ready to
listen to peace propositions" always
with a but" He then said:
Not so you young president: no, but,
but, but, with him in any of his utter
ances. He talked in a clear, manly
tone, straight from the shoulder noble
words-and we all rejoice in his state
ment of Saturday and in his assurance
that the great United States will sign
what we failed eighteen years ago to
get.
Others spoke in the same strain, CIV
ing nonpartisan testimony that Pres.
tdent Roosevelt has done more to aid
the universal peace movement than
any other president.
The "big stick" bugaboo is not wor-
rying anybody but those Democrats
who are foolish enough to think they
can beguilc the voters by mutilating
the presidents speeches and twisting
their meaning into the opposite of
what lie said. Democracy has never
yet been able to conduct an honest
campaign. Hypocrisy, deception and
forgery are the chief tenets of its
creed.

DO NOT A A CHANGE
People Are willing to Continue the Pres.
emit Administrator.

oHo INSTRUMENTATION
The constitution Of the United States
requires an election for president and
vice president every four years. The
provision is mandatory and cannot be
escaped. Under it the people are
called upon to vote for president and
vice president every fourth year with
out regard to politics, the record, or
the work of the administration in
power. The election must be held
whether a change is desirable or not.
There is reason to believe that a
large majority of the American peo-
pie do not desire a change in the
national administration ut the present
time, and that if it were a matter Of
choice with them no election would be
held this year. A national election
always interferes with business more
or less, and as the business Of the
country grows the feeling increases
that, in the absence Of any reason for
a change, n presidential election is a
disturbing factor that might we'll be
dispensed with If the constitution per-
mitted. That is the situation at pres
ent. The great mass Of the people arc
50 we'll satisfied with the present adj
m%inistration that they do not desire
a change and If the constitution did
not require M election to be held they
would regard it as unnecessary.
Who wants a change? Not the
farmers, for they never were more
prosperous or better satisfied than they
are at present. Not the business men,
for business is satisfactory. Not man.
ufacturers, for American manufacture
ers are o%utstripping those of all other
countries. Not w~age-earners, for there
are more men employed at good wages
today than ever before in the history
of the country. Not railroad men, for
the transportation business has grown
enormously during the last few years
and still gives promise of future
growth. In short, no large class of
u varied population can be named
but has good reason to desire n con-
%tinuance Of present conditions. If it
were not for the constitutional require
ment the people would have preferred
that no election took place this year.
The only exceptions are the Demo
cratic party leaders and those un.
fortunate people who have not the
sense to let we'll enough alone.

Ex.rre.,dent Cleveland. Failure.

Ex-Prcsident Cleveland is an IN
imagina tive man, and for this and
other good reasons his recent ma a
ztre article entitled "Why a Young
Man Should Vote the Democratic
Ticket" is short, pointless and uncon-
vincing.
1t takes a good deal Of fervid fancy,
and a knack for invention, to con-
struct an, argument upon a theme like
that, Mr.. Cleveland was evidently i'll
at ease with his subject. Probably few
young men will read the article, any
way, and no u will be influenced by
it.
The young men Of America Hive in
the present ard hope for the future.
They do not care to be ever holding
post-mortems on dead issues, o to
spend their days holding back the
wheels of action and progress.
The young men Of the United States
are alive. And they will vote the Re
publican ticket this fall.

THEY ARE FOR ROOSEVELT
His Magnetism Proves Attractive to Men
Of All Conditions.

There is a magnetism in open, fear.
less manhood which attracts the souls
Of men. The workingmen of the coun
try recognize in President Roosevelt an
active worker, a sincere, democratic,
straightout brother man. There is no
discounting the unerring instinct by
which sturdy man or class of men
reaches swift decision as to character.
Perhaps the rank ard file of the work
ers Of the United States cannot give
out long speeches as to why they be-
iieve in Roosevelt, but the fact is they
know him. That is enough.
Put Theodore Roosevelt in a group
Of railway engineers and fremen, or
on a ranch in Idaho; let him sit down
to dinner with a dozen farmers at a
country tavern or ride in a car with
4 mining outfit, or a college football
team, or a delegation of ~stonemasons,
and instantly he would be sized up,
estimated and acknowledged by any
and all of these representatives of
American life as a hearty, genial COM
panion, and as a strong man and as
q strong leader of men.
Evidences multiply. day by day,
showing in what high esteem Presi-
dent Roosevelt is held by the men who
are doing the work of the country; the
work which keeps life going, and
makes "the wheels go round" And
these intelligent, keen workers, look
ing with clear eyes upon the great
fabric Of society that they are daily
building, know how to pick a leader
for themselves and their country.
Nothing can make the virile young
manhood of America turn its eyes
away from Theodore Roosevelt. Moth
ing can destroy the confidence in him
Of the steady, hopeful toilers of mid
die age. And to the old and eN-
perienced the vain appeals of ancient
party prejudices are but as ratings to
the deaf. Young, middle-aged and old
alike in the great world of industry
and traffic, have made up their minds
about the coming election; and. when
It comes they are going to show the
faith that is in them.
The American workingmen have no
doubts about Theodore Roosevelt.
They know just what to expect of him
when he is president, and they mean
to have it by electing him.
