Inventions of the Enemy.

Lacking material from which to
create issues upon the past and pres
ent conduct of the Republican party,
the Democrats have been taking a long
and soulful look into the future this
fall, and their reports of what they
see there in the dim time to come are
fearsOme.
But nobody is scared. The dreamer
alone is disturbed by his nightmare,
except for a chance neighbor who may
hear and wonder at the awakening
shrieks of fne retching Of indigestion.
The visions Of delirium portend moth
ing outside of the sufferers PERSONAL
ty. The conjured wraiths of the
trance medium are visible only to the
contortionist, and perhaps few dupes
at the contrived seance.
The country is not going to ''the
demnition bowwows." The people of
the United States have no desire to
start an empire upon the ruins of their
republic They will not even listen
seriously to the suggestion of such a
thing. The Philippine islands are 60
ing to be taken care of. They will be
free in the best sense Of the word.
The Panama canal has been started by
honorable means, and it will so be
finished.

Washington still lives"

DEMOCRATIC INDIGESTION
Country has Suffered Because of 1t When
That Party Was in Power.

Whenever the Democratic party has
had chance at power its course has
been like that of the donkey in the
fable, which died of starvation while
trying to decide which to eat first, it's
oats or its hay.
1t was this way when Buchanan
was president and could not make up
his mind whether or not to suppress
by force the secession movement in
the south, and SO postponed having
anything done until Lincoln could be-
come president This dilatory policy
was largely responsible for the enor-
nous cost in money and lives of sup
pressing the rebellion.
When Cleveland was president the
country suffered quite as much from
agonizing uncertainty as to what the
Democrats were really going to do, as
from the actual evils that they did do.
On neither the tariff nor on the money
question was there any unity of opin-
ion amongst the Democrats, and never
was it possible to forecast just what
would be done.
The Democrats took one year and
five months to work up and pass their
Wilson bill after the Inauguration of
President Cleveland, as against four
months and twenty days that it took
the Republicans to pass the Dingley
bill after the Inauguration of President
Mckinley.
No less than 634 amendments were
made to the Wilson bill before it was
passed-and then, despite this enOr-
nous number of patches to make the
bill suit all Democrats, President Cleve-
land viewed it with the utmost dis
appointment" and said that it was
marked with places where the deadly
blight of treason has blasted the coun-
sells of the houses in their might" The
colossal failure of this bill to produce
enough revenue to run the govern
ment, as we'll as the general blow it
inflicted on the industries Of the coun'
try, thereby driving thousands of men
out of employment, was in sharp con
trast to the success of the Dingley bill
in not only producing enough revenue
but in giving employment to thousands
Of people out of work, and in restoring
good times to the country.

The Polite Drummer.

Mr.. Tom L. Johnson of Cleveland,
o., tells Of a rather neat retort made
by a young man employed as a COM
nercial drummer to an unkind OBJ
servation made by young woman
whom he met at the house Of a mutu-
al friend recently in the city men,
toned.
In the course of their conversation
the young woman In question, who is
of eastern origin, inquired as to the
occupation Of the young knight of the
gripsack.
II am commercial traveller" re-
marked the chap modest1y.
"How very interestingly exclaimed
the young lady in patronizing tone.
do you know that in my part of the
country commercial travellers are not
received in good society?''
The young fellow bowed politely.
''They are not here, either, madam -
he replied. Denver Republican.

THE DEMOCRATIC MIXTURE
Amazing Spectacle Presented by Once
Great Party.

Great Party.
The Democratic party, while en-
gagged in trying to lift itself into pow
er by its own boot-straps, is an inter-
esting and amazing spectacle. It's con-
trasts, contra dictions and compromises
are picturesque.
First look at its leaders and their
pecularities. There is Parker, the neu-
trail in ideas and convictions, the active
practical schemer Then President
Cleveland, with his present pose Of
conservatism and time-davored doc
tlines. A direct opposite is Iillman, the
f1amboyant mountebank, half savage,
half clown And to give variety, there
is Hill, the cold, selfish autocrat of the
Empire State Democracy, not hair of
whose political head is honest Con-
trasting him is Bryan. the majestic
talking machine, impassioned, san
guine, and equally crafty politician Of
the west. 1t is ten-ringed circus for
dazzling displays of contrasts. One
thought. one purpose alone, animates
this heterogeneous crowd: To get into
power.
Back Of them there are no principles,
nor even interests, upon which they
are agreed. Parker is Mr.. Facing
Both Ways. Cleveland is a Mr.. Fac
ing backwards. Tillman is a sufferer
from negrophobia, Hill believer in
the gold standard, and Bryan the apos
tie of free silver. Sheehan and bis
kind are but devotees Of Tammany, the
most corrupt political organization in
the world.
Can any man believe that these lead
ers, with the rank and file which fol-
! lows them torn into still more factions,
can win national election without
single national issue to bring before
the people? What can be their fate
at the polls?
The whole mass of retrospection, In
competency, dishonest and weakness
known as Democracy is doomed to de-
served disappointment this fall. Slowly
recognizing, it must secure to itself
set of principles, something to live for,
something to work for, before it can
command the allegiance of even one
fourth Of the people of the United
States.
The Telegraph-courier. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1888-1946, 1904-11-03

Parker is growing wilder as election
day approaches. He now says the
Philippines have cost the United States
S1,2OO,OOO,0O0. Secretary of War Taft,
who was governor general of the Phil
ippines, officially puts the total cost,
including purchase money, at $780,
100000. The question naturally arises
Is Parker either safe or sane when he
can iuggle figures in such an amazing
way?

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Buying from Abroad.

The less the United States, through
protective tariff, imports of the
things that it's own labor at home can
manufacture just as we'll as foreign
ers, the more it is able to import of
necessaries and luxuries that cannot be
purchased at home. The consumption
of coffee per capita in the United
States which in 1890 was eight
pounds, is now twelve pounds. Our
imports of sugar, teas, spices, silks,
laces, etc., have increased consider
ably during the last eight years. With
the American workingman sure of
a good home market for what he
produces, it goes almost without
saying that he will have enough
money to buy for himself foreign
luxuries that he could not dream of
having in Democratic times.
The Telegraph-courier. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1888-1946, 1904-11-03
Too Dear at Any Price.

That the governments expenses are
greater than they were in 1893 is true.
But the expenditures are all for the
work the people want done. There are
things that are too dear at any price.
One of these was the experience Of the
American people in 1893.
The Telegraph-courier. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1888-1946, 1904-11-03

Edward Atkinson, one Of the so
called anti-imperalists, recently pre-
pared newspaper article in which he
attempted to show that the Philippines
may have cost, indirectly, over a bill
lion dollars. The letter probably was
prepared for the benefit OF Judge Par
ker, for the Democratic candidate gives
Atkinson as authority for the statement
that the taxpayers have paid nearly a
billion and a quarter dollars for the isl
ands. What was Atkinson paid for his
misleading article?

The official records give the cost Of
the Philippines as $189,O0O,OO0. Parker
ignores the records and grossly exag-

idency on a platform of deceit and mis-
representation.

If Bryan Democrats are sincere in
their expressed desire to rebuke the
Hill heehan-P Parker combination for
the affront to their leader, they could
make the rebuke more singing by vot-

self satisfaction of W: J. Bryan, for
Mr.. Bryan is but human, and no man
ticks the hand that smites him with
sincere relish.

If large vote be cast for Watson,

sent the trick played on them at Esop-
us and st. Louis they can vote for
Roosevelt, and if they do not care to
do that there is third course open
they may stay at home on election day.
