had with Il foreign nation within
the memory Of anyone living was
during he administration Of the
placid Mckinley, and the Demo-
Gratis have tried their best to get
the chief credit for having brought
it about. 1t is doing violence to
the intelligence of the American
people to inflict upon them an ar
gument that has no foundation to
turn them against the present head
of the government. Rooseyelt's
whole public career has been one
long effort in behalf of the people.
He fought his way to the front in
the battle against civic wrongs in
stitutcd and fos:crcd by the Demo-
cracy. His conduct as public
man has repeatedly forced the APP
proval and applause of the Demo-
cratic partisan press which is now
assailing him at the demand of their

A number of Robb organs in
this congressional district seem to
take delight in making filings at
Hon. NJ, f. Rhodes, Robb's Re
publican opponent, because the
latter is a poor man and finds it
necessary to hold down his cam
paign expenses. 1t should be re-
membered by the people of the
district that Mr.. Rhodes is making
his canvass at his own expense
and as he has not held a fat Office
under the government for eight
years and drawn anywhere from
$40, 900 to $50, 900 from the nation
al treasury in that time, besides
keeping secretary at public ex-
pense to do his campaign work, he
cannot therefore be as careless of
expense us MIR. Robb. The same
spirit was displayed by the Robb
organs when the latter was running
for denomination as he waxed richer
and richer at the public crib. The
poor men who went against him
for party preferment were derided
because it required an effort on
their part to raise the exhorbitant
call of Ro6b's machine congress
ional committee for primary elec-
ton expenses. Is this plutocratic
Robh to have a perpetual monop-
oily Of the Office Of Congressman in
this district for no other reason ex-
eept that his purse is larger tha n
that of the men who oppose him
for the ofiicea We look to the
people for reply next November.

LITIC A L G l. N G H f r S

The Republican party stands
pledged to the policy of protecting
American industries. The Demo-
cratic party opposes this policy
| without Offering anything in place
of it.
The Democrats of the West are
more interested in again securing
control of the party in 1908, than
they are in what will happen to
Parker and Belmont in 1904.
There is a general suspicion in
Democratic circles that Judge Par
ker would run better if Cleveland
and Hill were not so conspicuous
on the coaching lines.
Judge Parker's conversion to the
gold standard bears a later date,
evidently, than when he voted for
Bryan in 1000. He allowed the
New York Democratic convention.
as late rs last April, to dodge the
issue.
The trouble with the Democratic
candidate for the Presidency seems
to be that he is too radical for the
conservative Democrats and too
conservative for the radical Demo
Gratis, and between them there is
still breach which divides them
irreconcilably.
After all. the Republican party's
chief source of strength lies in the
fact that its principles appeal to
the rugged common sense Of the
American people.
Every visitor to the Igorrotc
village at the st. Louis Exposition
will have his opinion of the wis
dom of tho Democratic demand
that we withdraw from the Philip
pines and give the natives the right
of self government.

1t is all right for Judge Parker
to explain where he stands on the
money question, but there is moth
ing the in convention record to
show that his party stands with
bin.
American voters will hardly for
get their experience when they ap-
piled the Democratic back-pedal
on an upgrade.
A convention may be trapped to
nominate candidate who does not
stand on the platform but ii is :,
different proposition to induce the
voters to support such a candidate
at the polls. Democratic mana
gers admit this by giving up hope
of carrying any of the Western
States that went for Bryan in 1896
and 1900.
Captain Hobson and Democratic
orators of that school bitterly de-
nounce President Roosevelt. There
is no objection, if it pIcases them,
for it does not bother Mr.. Roose-
welt a little bit.
Col. Bryan says that Hamlet is
his favorite play. Judge Parker
probably fears that the grave dig
ger is the Colonel's favorite char.
acter in the play.
Silver Democrats must agree
with Kuropatkin in his fear of the
final triumph of the yellow peril.
The Democratic solid South will
be offset this year by a Republican
solid West.
Even a casual reading of the fig
urcs of Americas growing export
trade will cure any pcssimism on
the part of those who question the
permanency of prosperity under
Republican policies.
Potosi journal. (Potosi, Mo.) 1894-1929, 1904-08-31

Tho Democrats seem to proceed
in their politics on the assumption
that the American people are ma
tural born dcrnfools, and that any
Argument will turn their votes to
that party. Eight years ago the
Bpyanites thought to stampede
the people by loud and persistent
c}asop or the highways and by
ways that to put the Republican
party back into power and estab-
lish the gold standard would bring
the country to awful and perpetual
ruin, enslavc the masses to the
money lords of Wall Street and
set up a government Of plutocrats
at Washington. The people, how
ever, kept on their feet and refus-
ed to 20 up in the air at the Demo
cratic scare. The time and con-
dh4ions that followed upon the res
toration Of the Republican party
in 1906 were emincntly satisfactory
to the people. -Four years ago the
campaign was more quiet, but the
Democrats raised another scare
booger cry of ''imperialism" and
''large standing army" to sustain a
rule of despotism built upon the
ruins of the American constitution
but the level l-headedness of the
people was again present te rebulze
the reflection of the Democratic
party against their good sense.

Of all citizens. In the present

Who's Been Robbed.

eve ,lenounce Protectionism as
robbery This is certainly
startling if true. But who has
been robbed!
Not the farmer, who is getting Il
billion dollars more per year than
under Free Trade; whose animals
are worth a billion dollars more
than under Free Trade; who has
paid off his mortgages, who has
improved his lands, who has in
creased his stock and inn. .lements,
and who has money to burn instead
of corn, rs was the case under
Free Trade.
No, the farmer has not been rob
bed, and the farmers and their
families constitute 10 per cent. of
all our people.
Not the wage earners in manu-
featuring industries, who have liv-
ed 50 well and added billion dol
lars to their savings since 1897,
who have increased their insurance
who have paid for their homes,
who have worked less hours and
earned more money than ever be-
fore. No, the wage Garner has
not been robbed.
Not the railroad employees, who
are getting a quarter of billion
dollars more wages year than I'M
der Free Trade.
Not the railroad owners, who
are getting twice the dividends and
whose stock in worth about double
what it was under Free Trade.
Not the professional man, who
is earning twice AS much and st
ting it. He did not get it even
though he earned it under Free
Trade.
Not the wives and daughters,
who live we'll and dress well when
the husbands and fathers are fully
employed at high wages.
Not the boys, who are getting q
good education.
Not the general public laborers.
who are working less hours and
getting higher wages than ever be-
fore.
| Not the old soldiers, nor the
present army, nor the men who
man the ships.
No, there is no one being robbed
except the pawnbroker and the
Democrats who want a job. There
is where the robbery comes in, ant
there is where it hurts. The would
| be cabinet officers and heads of de-
partments, the would-be postmas.
tcrs and clerks, the would-be am
bassadors and ministers and con.
suls, the wouldbe office holder OF
any and every description, h
thinks he is being robbed, and yet
he can make more money in hi!

his work than he could under Ere,
