FOR HOME AND FIREsIDE.

Lincoln Signed Homestead Law-MiI-

The Homestead Law was passed by
Republican Congress-Democrats oppos-
ing-and signed by President Abraham
Lincoln In 1862 1t has proven to be
one OF the most beneficial measures ever

President. It has largely populated the

States and the rapid growth Of the ma

The Democratic party was true to it's
policy of obstruction in this, as it has
been In every other measure intended
for the good OF all the people. The first
ball. introduced in 1859, passed the
House by vote OF 100 to 10. The RE-
puhlicans were supported by few scat

the Southern Democrats voted in a body
against It. The Senate was then Demo
cratic and no vote was taken in the up

and It was passed by a vote of 115 to
60. all of the affirmative votes, except
one. being from the free States. The
Senate passed different bill and there
was a conference which finally agreed
upon a modified bill. This was vetoed
June %. 1860. by the Democratic Presi-
dent, Buchanan.
In 1862, when the Republicans had n
majority of 80 in the House and II In
the Senate, a new homestead bill was
passed and signed by President Lincoln.
as stated. The measure was framed by
Republicans and passed by Republican
votes. At the same session were passed
the acts establishing a Department of
Agriculture and providing for agricul-
tural colleges. In 1864, 1870 and 1872
| bills were passed by Republicans giving
Union soldiers special homestead priv

in 1865 and 1886 to emigrate from the

There are many and strong reasons
why the western farmers. ranchmen and

THE "BlG STICK" LIE.
Nonpart'sau rcsti mor that Roosevelt
Ii Leader Of Peace Movement.


Ii Leader Of Peace Movement.
Apropos OF the silly Democratic charge
that Mr.. Roosevelt Is war lord" Il il
interesting to note how the Interpariia-
mentary Union views the President. The
Union Is composed of some OF the lead
ing parliamentarians OF Europe, who Wis
tied this country In the interest OF inter
national arbitra ton and peace. The Wis
itors were entertained at luncheon by the
National Civic Federation in New York
recently. Here is what Thomas Tough,
an Irish member of the Union. In pro
posing a toast to the President of the
United States. said. as reported by the
New York World. newspaper that has
been picturag Mr.. Roosevelt us verita-
BILE god of war:
We. who are visitors here. after n few
days regard him as ruler OF one OF the
mightiest powers OF the earth. who has
taken more distinct step In the Interest
has taken. He is not only great ruler
himself. but Is worthy representative OF
O great line of rulers who have done much
for the liberties of mankind
w. Randall Cremer, noted member
of the British Parliament, also praised
the President. The soyereigns of Hu-
rope, he declared. wore ready to listen to
peace propositions" always With q
but" He then said:
Not SO your young President; no, but,
but. but. with him In any Of his utter
anees ae talked ts IL clear m,nn,y tone
and we all rejoice in his statement OF Sat
urday and in his assurance that the great
United States will sign what we failed
eighteen years ago to get.
Others Apoke in the same strain. giving
non-partisan testimony that President
Roosevelt has done more to aid the uni
versal peace movement than any other
President.
The "big stick" bugaboo is not worry
ing anybody but those Democrats who
are foolish enough to think they can be-
guile the voters by mutilating the Presi-
dents speeches and twisting their mean
ing into the opposite of what he said.
Democracy has never yet been abs to
conduct m honest campaign. Hypocrisy,
deception and forgery are the chief tensts
of its creed.

MUST TRUST ROOSEVELT.
There L. No Other Alternative for the
Workingmeu.


Wage earners, though saying little, are
taking deep interest in the campaign.
They have compared the records of the
two leading Presidential candidates, and
have found Parker wanting in sympathy
for the workingmen. Roosevelt's record
speaks for itself. He has never lost an
opportunity to show, by word and deed,
that he is heart and soul In sympathy
with the toiler. In this connection the
following extract from an editorial in
the Western Laborer, of Omaha, one of
the best known organs Of union labor In
the West. Is interesting:
The workers of the doubtful States must
trust Roosevelt because they know him
and because Of what they know him to
have done as asscmblyman at Albany, ms
governor of New York and President OF
the United States II the workers in the
doubtful States will read Parker's letter

Dsmocracy's campaign managers are

wage-earner, but are meeting with re-
bluffs on every hand. All the big, pros
porous labor organiza tons are non-par-

is as careful an observer OF public senti-
ment as can be found in the great army
of toilers. He travels extensively, and
has become convinced, after talking with
representative labor unionists through
the country, that there Is nothing or
nobody In it but Roosevelt" as he terse-
ly sizes up the political situation. In an
interview In the Labor World of Pitts
burg, printed in it's issue of Sept. 2,
Mr.. Little says:

there are many who will neither vote the

will vote for some radical candidate Let
point out a great truth and II Is this:
II we do not want TO throw our vote away
let cast 1t for Roosevelt. To vote for
the Socialist ticket is wasting vote. for
there Is no possible chance for other than

tween Parker and Roosevelt. and we all
know that Teddy has been our friend and

Roosevelt. and there are 30 chances to 1

therefore, to votes In n way that

wATsoN's VIEWS.
The Geor gian's Opinion of Roosevelt
and Parker.

Thomas E. Watson, the candidate of
the Peoples party, is getting great
deal of amusement out of what he calls
the independent side-show of his own,
OF which he is Sin full militant agrees
sive control" He says he respects
Roosevelt and the Republicans because
they know what they want. are candid
in stating their position and fearless in
fighting for their principles. He prefers
Roosevelt to Parker, because the former
sis not seeking the support of Bryan
Democrats upon false pretenses. He is
not playing a confidence game on the
negro question. He is not attempting
to win Jeffersonians by a sham adher-
ence to Jeffersonian principles. He is
not in ambush; he is behind no blind;
he stands out in the open and says to his
enemies: Here ! am, Republican
who stands pat on all existing conditions:
If you want a fight. come on
Mr.. Watson's letter is full of vitiolic
contempt for Judge Parker as a weakling
and artfm dodger. 1t ridicules his posi-
ton on the pension question and says
his pledge to revoke Order No. 10
amounts to saying, Roosevelt did the
right thing, but not in the right way,
and il you will elect me President
will do the same thing in the proper
way"
As to the Democracy itself Mr. Wat
son asks:
"who could put faith in the pledges
of the party which has so little unity
of conviction as the National Demo
cracy?"
"what party ever made and broke SO
many pledges?'
what party ever changed its ground
so often?''
"What other party ever unloaded all
of its principles at one quick throw
down as they did at st. LOUISE"
Candor compels the answer ''None."
1t remains the party of nothing but big
professions, unfulflled promises and
pledges.
