Decorah public opinion. (Decorah, Winneshiek County [Iowa]) 1895-1928, 1904-10-05

In every national campaign for 40
years past the Republican patty has
stood upon it's record Of things done.
Of laws enacted, Of policies established
under which the country has progressed
and prospered. The record Of the
Democratic party made in two ad-
miniserations was so full of disaster.
Of commercial ship-wreck. Of indus
trial paralysis and business failures
that it's chief businss in recent years
has been to get as far away from its
record as possible.

Without questioning the sincerity
of Judge Parker's expressions ON the
money question he was. by his own
statements. more devoted to his party
in 1896, than he was to his sincere
convictions of right. That being the
case, We have right to assume that
he might. at an extreme moment.
again surrender his principles for the
sake of his party. Such man cannot
be held up as safe candidate for the
highest position in the government.

period of their ascendency the samurai
kept the secret that their great physi.

water, the belief that il used liberal

fallible weapon against disease is now
generally held. By those who 60 in

rheumatism is almost unknown in
Japan. It is probable that the absence
of meat from the diet, combined with
the use of plenty Of water. accounts
for this immunity.

Carroll D. Wright. commissioner Of
the labor bureau, in the eighteenth
annual report Of the bureau. gives the
results OF comprehensive inquiry in
to the cost Of living since 1896 and in
to the average wage rate during those
periods. The showing. so far as con-
Germs wages, has heen made public
heretofore. an investigation Of SIS oc-
cupations, representing sixty seven
industries in 8, 4a9 separate establish
ments having shown an average in
crease in wages during this period Of
is. per cent. The inquiry into the
cost of living shows that living for
workingmen's families having under
81. 200 income per year has increased
during this period 1915 per cent. In
order to ascertain this average increase
the labor bureau secured the income
and expenditures in detail OF 2.567
families in thirty-three states. retail
prices being taken. The staetment
shows that the 2.567 families consisted
OF an average Of 5.Sl persons and that
the average income for the year 1901
was ssa7.

gineers at q recent meeting held in

cord as taking the stand that the non.
union man has as good right to work

their Willingness to worK with nom

Charged with writing and sending
obscene letters to President Roosevelt
Miss Roosevelt and Helen Gould a
man giving his name as Edward Dal-
heimer has been arrested by the United
States authorities and has been lodged
in Jail at Fort Dodge, Iowa. Tie
letter alleged to have been written by
Dalheimer to-the president threatens
his life unless certain reforms are
made. The one to Miss Gould pro-
poses marriage. The letter to Miss
Roosevelt is not made public. 1t is
alleged that the prisoner also wrote
to ]. j. Hill asking him to intercede
at Washington to have the gold stan
dard changed to diamonds as medium
of exchange. Dalheimer was arrested
at Emmettsburg. Iowa, where he was
brought before the commissioners OF
insanity and proved to be in his right
mind. It is claimed that Dalheimer
wrote the letters in South Dakota, and
he will probably be taken to Sioux
Falls for trial.

1t would seem that in view of the
many i%rrefutable contradictions the
democratic newspapers would tire of
continually charging Roosevelt with

trusts. Very few days pass without

magnate or magnates have met with
rebuffs from the president when seek
ing to secure from him a promise of
immunity as the price of their con-
tributions to the campaign. In case
of his election the law is to be en-.

are to be urged upon congress that
unlawful combinations may be the
better restrained. There are no ante

PRlcks OF CONSCIENCE.

Whether unwittingly or in response
to the sharp proddings of conscience,
occasionally one of the democratic
newspapers of the state tells the
truth concerning the realignment
perfected between erstwhile warning
factions Of the party. The Great
Falls Tribune lis one of the lot often
est given to these manifestations of
remorseful awakening.
Here is what it had to say a few
days ago in regard to the rapproach-
ment of Heinze and the Amalga-
mated:
'There have been various goings
on in Montana of late that much
puzzled the people of the state. Most
men who talk about it frankly admit
that while realizing that something
is doing they can't make out Just
what it is. There may be nothing
in it, but the people of the state
have about come to the conclusion
that the Amalgamated and Heinze
have arrived at a thorough under.

standing about things in general SO
far as they affect them"
After referring to the reports from
the east that Heinze interests are
large buyers Of Amalgamated stock.
it agrees with the correspondent that
the buying Clocks significant" "es-
pecially in view of the other develop
ments which have been mentioned"
adds the Tribune. The closing sen-
tence of the article quoted from, how.
ever, is the one that indicates an at.
tack of conscience. Listen to it:
''Time will probably show what it
all means, and probably the princi-
pals in the game that is now being
played will not show their hands
until they are compelled to. Mean.
time there is a good deal of blufing
going on, and it is directed toward
the Montana public"

CONDITION OF LABOR.

"A wide disparity exists in the fig.
ures contained in the democratic
campaign book concerning labor con
ditions throughout the country and
the figures of the statisticians on the
same subject. This, however, is to
ne expected. The figures in the for
mer are intended to create dissatis-
faction among those who toll and to
cause them to take a prejudiced and
distorted view of the situation and by
playing upon their feelings lead them
10 the belief that conditions are
worse than actually obtain and that
tho sxepuhnsan party e responsible
4herefor. The others merely endeavor
