But if there is one thing necessary to
the success of the Republican ticket, it
is that the Democratic candidate shall
deserve and get the loyal support of
Tammany Hail.
Viewing the situation broadly, never
in the history of campaigns between Re-
publicans and Democrats were the dis
tinguishing characteristics of the two
parties so strongly emphasized as in
this one. The Republicans face the
problems of the day without finching
from either the opportunities or the re
.sponsibilities Of action. They have the
necessary convictions, courage and re-
sources to remove mountains.
On the other hand, the Democrats ex-
hbit all their old failings of irresolu-
ton, theoretical Yagaries, lack of set
tied convictions and conflicting councils
that render them unfit to be entrusted
with the control of the government.
At this stage of the campaign there
seems not the slightest reason to doubt
that the popular drift is with the party
that marches forward rather than that
which stands still or marks time in the
footprints the other has left in the path
way of national progress. The best
proof of this is in the fact that the
American people are going about their
daily business without any perplexing
doubts as to what will happen in No
yember.

ILLEGAL CORPORATIONS.
Presidents Action In Enforcing Laws
Against Them.


Northwestern Christian Advocate, Sept. 2O,)
In holding large corporations to strict
accounta bility to the law the President
is serving the best interests of those
corporations as we'll as conserving the
welfare of the country. All corporations
which are operating ON an unlawful basis
should be compelled to conform to the
law If they cannot or will not they
should go out of business. This, some
have been forced by the lawless conduct
Of their promoters and operators to do,
to the great loss of their stockholders.
Many formerly wealthy men are now
broken in fortune because corporations
with which they were connected were
formed and operated in violation Of law.
The action of the President in enforc-
ing the law would prevent, not promote,
such losses.
One of the crying needs of America
to-day is such respect for the laws of
the nation as the President has shown
He did not make the laws, but it is his
duty to obey them. He has set an eX-
ample which every citizen should follow.
If that be done, we shall hear no more
OF mobs breaking into jails, defying po-
lice and militia, and hanging or burning
prisoners suspected or convicted of
crime, and burning property in a wild
frenzy Of disorder and lawlessness.

Best of All Markets,

The best of all markets for American
manufacturers and farmers is the home
market The internal commerce of the
United States aggregates each year more
than $23 100000 and is far greater
than the international commerce of all
the world. This vast market is at our
doors. 1t is among our own people, Why
should we surrender it to foreigners, as
the Democratic policy of free trade
would do, and pay to foreign manufac-
turers and workmen the money that
should go to Americans?

The bitterness of it's irony over the

The bitterness of it's irony over the
unassailable strength of President
Roosevelt's letter of acceptance, the New
York Times exclaims, ''has done abso
lutely the right thing, the very best
thing upon every government occasion,
and with assured confidence he promises
to keep on so doing. He has made no
mistakes; he will make none" This is
meant for irony of the red hot kind that
comes from gnawing on a file. But the
question is not whether President R0ose-
velt's course has always been absolute
ly impeccable, but what different course
could the Democrats have pursued on
these government occasions that would
not have landed us in the fogs, fens and
mazes of national decentralization and
impotence.

SONG OF DEMOCRATS.

Sing a song of Democrats,
And note their poignant pain;
They find no balm in Gilead,
No hope in this campaign;
Vermont has gone Republican,
And now, just look at Maine.

Their spirits sadly droop,
AS Parker mounts the scaffolding
To do his loop-the-loop,
For we'll they know hen he comes dowr
He'll land right in the soup.

"The prime reason WHY the expenses

"The prime reason why the expenses
of the Government have increased of
recent years is to be found in the fact
that the people, after mature thought,
have deemed it wise to have certain
new forms of work for the public un-
