The Prohibition party is not in

do not win in this campaign we
will not be discouraged, but will
at once begin to organize for the
next campaign. Nothing short of
the humiliation of the liquor traffic,

will satisfy those patriotic men

this righteous cause.

New York the Pivotal State.

1t seems to be the general opin-
ion that New York is the pivotal
State now, as formerly, and the
belief is growing that as New
York goes, so the country will go.
The labor vote is evidently going
to be divided, bat the trend of or
ganized labor is toward the De-
mocracy. 1t is easy to figure out
u Republican victory in the coun-
try at large without New York,
but signs multiply that the party
which gets the electoral votes of
the Empire State will have a ma
jority in the electoral college. This
carries with it the implication
The Mt. Sterling advocate. (Mt. Sterling, Ky.) 1890-current, 1904-10-26

that the majority in New York
will be large enough to set the
pace for Connec ticut and New
Jersey. West Virginia and In
diana are believed by the best pos
ted men at Democratic headquar-
tiers to be in sympathy with New
York. Maryland is safe beyond
peradvanture. There is a chance
for the Democrats in Rhode Island,
Nevada, Colorado, and Montana
continue to send cheering news.
All three of these mountain States
it is believed, will cut loose from
Republicanism. Wisconsin is the
greatest puzzle in the whole lot of
States. One thing only seems GER
tain, and that is that the Demo-
Gratis will gain three or four Con-
gressIonal Districts, including
Babcock's. If the Democrats are
true to Peck he will be the next
Governor of the State. The State
is claimed for Roosevelt by a
very large majority, but the Re-
publican factional fight has be-
come so bitter that no one can
foretell to what lengths one fac
tion or the other may go in an eff
feet to carry its point. That there
is not much enthusiasm for Roose-
welt was shown the other day when
"Uncle Joe" Cannon, Senator
Fairbanks, Congressman Babcock,
and other Republican orators adj
dressed an audience of twenty two
persons at Plattsmouth, in the
heart of the zinc region, in Con-
gressional district that has given
as high as 10000 Republican ma
jority.

Straight From The Shoulder.

The judicial temperament is all
right on the Bench or in the White
House, but it can be dispensed
with in a candidate for the Presi-
dency. Judge Parker has awaken
ed to that fact. He is striking
straight from the shoulder. His
addresses on the Philippines was a
masterful discussion of that all
important question, embracing as
it does the vital problem of main
tanning foreign colonies, and deny
ing to conquered people their in
dependence. The Judge lack
neither vigor nor courage. His
views on these problems are of sur
passing interest and his manner of
Expressing them gives proof that
he will bring the solution of the m
all the qualities of heart and brain
so necessary in a Chief Executi We.

half of our Republic, concerning
the offences against the ballot box
in southern states, but in my can
did judgment all of the abuses of
the franchise ever known in the
South do not begin to compare with
the prostitution of this foundation
stone of American liberty that is
INDUCED in at every election by
the liquor power ofour land. There
is scarcely city In America of
10, 900 population or over, that Is
not absolutely in the grip of the
rum devil. Campaigns are planned,
candidates are named, election
officers suggested, and indeed the
entire system of local, municipal
and national government is in a
very large measure inaugurated
and exploited by the organized
liquor traffic. If stream cannot
rise higher thar it's source, it is no
wonder that here and there some
revelation of municipal corruption
like that recently disclosed in St.
Louis will startle the sober people
of our land. l do not hesitate to
say that all the boodlers, bribers
and corruptionists, of all the par
ties, are the direct and Legitimate
production of the American saloon
the blood poison of our Ameri-
can life.
l appeal to the manhood of
America to stand together in the
coming election in one patriotic
effort to rid our nation of this upas
tree of death. If every nan who
believes in Prohibition will this
year vote the national Prohibition
ticket, the beginning of the end
will have come. Within four years
from the time that such a happy
consumation has been reached there
will not be brewery, distilery or
liquor den in all our land.
Most gratifying has been the
progress of Prohibition in our local
contests, but no mere local triumph
can cure a national disease. We
need to strike at the heart of this
deadly curse, and its heart is in
Washington. Whenever the time
comes that the United States gov
eminent refuses absolutely to issue
licenses for the sale of rum or fol
its manufacture, then indeed will

Davis Wants West Virginia and
The Signs 70 The Times Are
Favorable.

Young Davis continues his
record breaking tour of West Vir-
ginia. He is talking to his neig h.
bors in a practical fashion, as one
plain man might talk to another.
They know him. They have seen
him advance from a brakeman on
a railroad to the highest position
one can attain-a secure place in
the affections of his fellow citizens.
His fortune was earned by inces-
SAINT toll. His rugged health, like
mis- honest nature. was an inheri-
lance and he has conserved both
by careful life. West Virginia
honors this grand old man, and it
is believed it will show its conf
dence in him by giving him and
Judge Parker its ELECTORAL vote.

VICE-PRESIDENTIAL CAN
DIDATE SPEAKS.
THOUGHTFUL MESSAGE TO
AMERICAN VOTERS.
A Voice OF Cheer and Courage.

/ am profoundly of the convic
tion that the ultimate glory and
perpetuity of the American gov
eminent depends upon the absolute
prohibition of the manufacture and
sale of intoxicating liquors as bev-
eranes. To student of the his
tory of current events it is passing
strange that the candidates of both
the Democratic and Republican
parties are absolutely silent con-
corning this great evil. Even the
Republican platform, which in
former years did, in an evasive
way, recognized the evils of the
traffic, is now as silent as the
grave. The Democratic platform,
evidently in response to- the de-
mands of the liquor power, rean-
nounces its age old alignment with
the liquor traffic, and all the candl-
dates are absolutely silent.
Our President seems, just now,
while the campaign is waxing to
its meridian heat, to be profound
ly concerned for the peace of the
nations of the world, but the raw
ages of our 100000 American sa-
looms do not in any way appeal TO
either his love of country or his
reverence for the sanctity of our
homes.
There is some discussion of the
trusts, which are SO deeply en-
trenched in our national life; there
Jis some reference to the traffic ques-
ton, and anon some belated orator
inveighs against the money power ;
but in all the land not one candi-
date for any office, high or low, in
the Democratic and Republican
parties, has dared to raise his
voice against the American saloon,
which is the breeder of crime, the
nesting place of-anarchy, and the
habitat and vehicle of every cor
rupting influence in American pol
itics.
Much has heen said by political
orators. especially in the northern

The Consumer Pays the Tariff.

1t is not easy to get excited over
the tariff, but when the head of
every family in Kentucky realizes
that he digs down in his pocket
every year for $94 which goes to
the projected trusts, he may sit up
and take little notice. If a burg
lar were to relieve him of one tenth
of the sum he would set up a howl
for the police that could be heard
in the remotest regions of the
frozen North, even overtaking Ku-
ropatkin, the speed marvel. But
say "tariff !" to him and he will go
to sleep.

blemishes, they do not impair his
value, because he is purchased for
work and not for beauty. He is
not so nervous or high strung as
the horse. He has a sanar in
stinct of selfpreservation; will
stand greater hardships, has more
vitality, and when properly in
structed is steadier and more re.
liable.
When it comes to breeding, the
two or more years saved in handl-
ing means big profit. The mule,
too, is always salable The mule
market is never glutted; in fact,
the market comes to the mule
rather than the mule to the mar
ket. 1t matters not whether II is
a time of peace or war, the de-
mand for mules is always large.
AS a war necessity, the mule is
universally recognized. AS a work
animal, the hauler of cart and
dray, he will stand more wear and
cost less to keep. Down South
one part of the ration of a mule is
molasses, and another cottonseed
meal.

News Prom New York.

Democrats in the South who are
looking to New York for political
inspiration should be satisfied
-. + TIC developments oi the siie GAM
paign from day to day. Privately
the Republican managers admit
the probable defeat of their State
ticket, but they profess to believe
that Roosevelt is popular enough
to save himself hy tho "skkia Of
his teeth" On the other hand,
the Democratic leaders at both
State and National Headquarters,
believe that Parker, as we'll as
Herrick, will carry the State.
Roosevelt and Higgins, they say,
are beaten to-day, and if the Dem
ocrats can hold their own from
this time on they will stay beaten.
The Republicans base their hope
Of capturing the electoral vote of
New York upon Roosevelt's alleged
extraordinary popularity, upon
their fine organizations. and upon
their great corruption fund. Car
rying so big stick, it is true they
may go far. But the New York
Democracy is not frightened. 1t
has faced adverse conditions in
the past and won great victories.
1t believes the conditions favora-
bic now, hence, with good reason,
expects 10 win another. 10 begin
with, Roosevelt's extraordinary
popularity" in New York has yet
to be demonstrated. He has been
before the people but twice, once
when he ran for the Assembly in a
strong Republican district and got
a fair majority, again when he ran
for Governor and was elected by
1900 majority. Neither OF these
achievements stamped him as a
very popular man. Judge Parker,
on the other hand, has run for Of
fee number of times and has yet
to be defeated. He ran in ever y
instance but one in a Republican
community. That the Republican
organization in New York is as
near perfect as such an organiza-
tion can DE is admitted. This is
so in the rural districts and in all
of the cities above the Harlem
River; what the organization
amounts to in New York City re-
mains to be seen; heretofore it
has been weak but Odell claims to
have strengthened it considerably.
AS to the size of the Republican
corruption fund there is no ques-
ton. There is abundant evidence
that 1t is great one.-National

The Demand for Mules.

Live stock experts are predicting
that the big money of the next few
years to be made in stock will be
gathered in by the breeders of
mules. When construction work
on the Panama canal begins in
earnest, they say the price of mules
is bound to jump, because these are
the only animals that can stand the
intense heat of that section and
keep on working. The West In
dies, Africa and the Philippine
Islands have also been drawing
heavily upon this country for
mules, and the American mule is
increasing in favor as a part of the
equipment cf European armies.
AS matter of fact mules have
been steadily rising in value. In
Texas, Kentucky, Tennessee and
Missouri there are big mule farms
which have enriched their owners
in the last ten years. Yet, for
some reason or another, the former
mule breeding sections are not pro-
ducing mules fast enough to supply
the demand and their production is
declining. Not many years ago
Kentucky had $4,000 jennets, while
now there are not more than $500.
The same decline is noted in Texas,
Missouri and Tennessee.
The mule has been The standard
work animal of the Southern States
for many years. 1t Is there, of
course, that he fourishes most.
Texas tops the list with 407, 900,
with Missouri next with 100000.
OF all the Southern States Virginia
boasts OF the smallest number, AZ,
900. The average value of the
mule in these States runs from $40
to $85. In the United States the
mule averages $40 more head in
value than the horse-$72.49 to
$50 %. There are nearly 5000,
900 mules, as compared with 49,
100000 horses.
On the big Southern plantations,
mules in immense numbers are
used. On the biggest one in Louis
lana, that of the Leon Godlcahaux
Company, from 1000 to 1900
mules are worked the year around.
Climatic conditions make the mule
more to be relied on than the horse
in the lice, cane aud cotton dis
tricts, and as these are being better
and more intelligently worked, the
demand for mules increases.
The mule has advantages over
the horse which have come to be
recognized by men who work the
two side by side. In the first place,
he pays the breeder better because
he can be put on the market year
or two sooner. He is not as ex.
pensive to raise as the horse be-
cause he is in condition to do good
work before the horse can be bro
ken to harness. At two years old
the mule can be put in the field
and kept there until old age over
takes him.
The mule is also healthier than
the horse. He is rarely subject
to the horse diseases, nor is he
likely to have blemishes which de-
stroy the value OF many cot

At Solomonville last Monday Judge Doan rendered a decision in the in- junction brought by the Phoenix and Eastern railroad against the Arizona Eastern, which restraints the latter from employing 1000 men and $50 carts for work on the north bank of the Gila river, between Kelvin and Dudleyville. This is the continuation of a bitter fight over the route through Box canyon to Gila river, which both lines are claiming. As a result the Arizona Eastern will be forced to withdraw, leaving the right of way clear for the P. & E., but the case will be taken to the higher court. The Arizona Eastern is building from San Carlos to Mesa, to connect the Globe, Gila Valley & Northern with the Mar icopa & Phoenix.
