Watson Says Democracy is Dead.

New York. Nov. 9.-Late in the
night came an announcement from
Melvin c. Palliser, manager of the
campaign for Thomas L. Watson.
candidate of the peoples party, that
as a result of the overwhelming dem
ocratic defeat steps should be taken
to form a new party.
To this end. according to the an
nouncement given out. Bryan, Wat
son and Hearst will hold a conference
in New York in about a week.
In no election in recent years has
the result been definitely known so
soon. Hardly had the sun gone down
when the results in New York began
TO appear. BY seven o'clock It was
evident that the Empire state had
given the republican candidates a
majority beyond the predictions of
party managers.
SO convincing was the story of the
bulletins that at half past seven Au-
gust Belmont at democratic head
quarters conceded Roosevelt's cleo
ton by an overwhelming majority
and half an hour later the democratic
leaders who had managed the cam
paign freely admitted that the repub-
licans had carried every doubtful
state.
There was no disposition to hope
against hope.
AS state after state sent in it's re-
publican majoritles and wires told
the tale of the ballots. bringing even
from those commonwealths upon
which they had based their figures OF
democratic success reports of unpre-
cedented republican majorities, they
frankly conceded their defeat and of
fered no explanation. Soon after Bel
mont's admission. Parker acknowl-
edged the situation by telegraphing
Roosevelt his congratulations.

Why is 1t?

Had you ever thought why 1t Is
that life insurance agents representing
other companies try to avoid coming
into competition with the Mutual Ben
eft and try to induce those who they
persuade to take life insurance to ac-
cept the policies Of their companies
before investigating the contracts or
record Of the Mutual Benefit? 1t Is
because they KNOW when it comes
to a show -down-a comparison Of con-
tracts, rates, GUARANTEES and div
dend paying records-they stand no
better show for doing business than
they would If they went to banker
and tried to sell him dollar bills for
s1.25 each in gold! If you will take
the trouble to compare Mutual Benefit
guarantees and records with those Of
other companies am sure that you
will be willing to endorse the claim
that 1t Is ."the Best Company" and is
sues the Best Policy and is in class
all by itself when 1t comes to safe
guarding the interests Of its members.
It will not cost you anything to find
out whether I can make good my
claims. If I can't you are not hurt.
If I can isn't 1t to your interest to try
to join the Mutual Benefit host?

Letter to T w Speek,
Norkville 6 c.

Dear Sir: A big mill-owner, Spar
tanburg, S c. wanted 5000 gallons Of
paint, and bought by price; paid .
cents less than ours; got 'lead-and-
zinc paint: but the lead was sulphate
of lead. not carbonate. Sulphate costs
about half; and covers about half.
That paint was adulterated about six
times as much as the S cents paid for.
He saved" cents; and 1t cost him 30.
Oh no: it cost him more than that:
We forgot the labor. Can't work 1t out
exactly: don't know how long it'll wear.
Short besides: that alone
was twice as much as his saving 5
cents.
It was thin, too: some loss there;
