Not on the nrourner's Bench.

1t is hard, this year, for the Demo
Gratis to get the American people up
to the mourner's bench. Br'er Parker
may give forth ominous platitudes, mis-.
fits for the times, every one of them
Br'er Hill may shrek, gesticulate, get
red in the face and pound the rostrum;
Grandpa Davis may groan lugubrious.
", but all to no effect.
Prosperous, happy, content and
proud, the United States Of America is
doing very well, and does not care to
change it's policy just now.
Looking back upon the past eight
years, the people see nothing in the
conduct Of national affairs to be sorry
for. They do see much to be thank:
full for. President Roosevelt for three
years has guided the nation along
pleasant paths, and all it asks is to
have him continued at it's head fol
four years more. There's luck in odd
numbers!'
No mourner's bench for US, Br'e,
Parker, Br'er Hill and Grandpa Da.
Wis!
We're a-shouting!

DON'T FORGET CONGRESS
1t Is Very Important that 1t Sho uld Be
RopubliCan.

1T Is Very Important that 1t Sho uld Be
Republican.
In the great political contest which
occurs in this country every four
years, and which is now on, the cleo
ton of President is apt to overshadow
be so. The President is the head Of
the executive branch of the govern
ment, but the Legislative branch is
equally as important. Republicans
should remember that it is as import
ant to hold Congress- as it is to elect
the President. The election of Judge
Parker would mean much more than
the induction Of his personality into
that high office. His election would
mean the election Of a Democratic
House Of Representatives, and this
would be most unfortunate, because:
First, the Democratic party, COM
posed as it is of all the distracted ele-
ments Of the country, Is not capable
of successfully administering the af-
fairs Of this government. 1t has not
the capacity to deal with the great
problems that now confront us. Sec
ond, a Democratic House of Repesen-
tatives would mean that the entire
legislative machinery Of that body
would be placed in the control Of the
South; the speaker, the committee on
rules, and all the important commit
tees, as well as the chairmanships of
the same, would be subordinated to
southern policies. In answer to this it
may be said that Democratic House
could do no harm, as the Senate would
still be Republican, and could prevent
any unwise or radical legislation. Dut
Democratic House could prevent Re-
publican legislation, and great harm
might result from that The election of
a Republican Congress is scarcely sec
ond in Importance to the election of
Republican President

Democratic Tariff Revision,

How does the Den;sccSatic party pro-
pose to deal with 10 slsiff: Does it
say: I'VE assent to the principle Of
protection and ask the pc; pie of the
United States to commit to our hands
the revision Of the tariff in conformity
with that principle?" Far from it, 1t
avows its unrelenting hostility to the
principle Of protection and asks the
people to put in its hands the revision
Of the tariff in order that it may re-
wise protection out Of it and repeat
the, experiment Of Grover Cleveland's
second administrator. According to
Mr.. Gompers, president of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor, that admin
istration put 3.0O0,0O0 American work
ingmen to walking the streets and
without bread for their families. That
is the kind of tariff reform revision
the Democratic, party proposes.

Nobody Scared.

Parker says if. he is elected he will
cut off the old soldiers age disability
pension by revoking order rs. But the
old soldiers don't seem to be the least
bit scared!
Parker says he is in favor of pro-
ceeding with due diligence" in con-
structing the Panama canal, but he
thinks the Roosevelt way was source
of regret to many" But Roosevelt is
not troubled.
And Parker says that the mana ge-
ment Of our foreign affairs has EEK
cited serious apprehension" in some
quarters. But the American people
are not among the apprehensive.
Then, Parker is In bad way about
imperialism" but the citizens of the
United States only smile when they
hear that word

Cleveland. they did everything posi-
BILE to kill rural free delivery; in
fact, they absolutely refused to expend
any of the $4,000 congressional appro-
priation for its nourishment, and both
Postmasters General Bissell and Will

utmost to disredit it. President Cleve-
land also threw cold water on it in a
hostile message to congress. When Nc

livery was pushed to the front as Re-
publican policy. This policy has been
continued under President Roosevelt.

Senator Bacon has been reduced to
tears Because the north continues to
present practically solid front to the
solid south nearly forty years after
the closing of the bloody chasm. The
emotional senator should reserve his
tears for the solid south. When they
can dissolve that Bourbon combina-
ton Of traditional mistrust and ex-
ploded dogmas the chief cause and
excuse Of sectional politics will disap-
pear. Why doesn't Senator Bacon be-

TARIFF AND MONEY;
u One Standard Is Established, whv No,
thosOtherp

y OAs S'DAu0Fu As IstaDAShed, Why Not
.xe50ther? /
Why should hdt the protective tariff
policy be as firmly and irrevocably
established" as the Democratic party
and its candidate for the presidency
comedies the gold standard to be? /
The gold standard was advocated by
the Republican party, and on this issue
the country went Republican by an
overwhelming majority. The question
OF tariff or free trade, and tariff reform
and revision, has been the issue in sew
eral national campaigns, and the peo-
PIE by their votes decided finally that
the protective tariff principle should
prevail and that this country should be
recognized as favoring and supporting
protection and not free trade. The,
Democratic party was placed in power
ana given the opportunity of demon
strat1ng the fallacy of it's free trade or
tarlH for rnvenue-only policy, and the
result was so disastrous that the peo-
pie gladly returned to protection at the
flrst opportunity, and refused to EX-'
PERTINENT WITH FREE SILVER,
The legislation by congress fixing the
gold standard was in accordance with
the demand Of the people, as expressed
by their votes. They, the people, have
Just as firmly expressed their prefer
ence for protection. Neither currency
nor tariff legislation is so firmly enact
ed that the laws could not be changed
by congress if the people demanded
their revision, and the only reason that
the Democratic party is attempting to
make the tariff an issue In this cam.
paign is that they hope the people have
forgotten their sad experience under
the Wilson Gorman Democratic tariff
bill. After the votes are counted in
November, the Democrats will find
that the people who by their votes rule
this country consider the protective
policy as well as the gold standard
firmly and irrevocably established as
cardinal principles.

Watson asks:
WHO could put faith in the pledges
of the party which has so little unity
of conviction as the National Lemo-
cracy?"
What party ever made and broke
40 many pledges?'
''What party ever changed its
ground so often?"
"What other party ever un1oaded all
of its principles at one quick throw
down as they did at ST. LOUISE
Candor compels the answer None y
1t remains the party Of nothing but
big professions, unfulhlled promises
and pledges.

Democratic legislation has never
erected factory, or given working
man a job, or increased his wages. On
the contrary it has put out factory
fires that Republican legislation had
lighted; it has closed mills that Rcpub-
lican legislation had opened, and it has
taken jobs from thousands of working
men to whom Republican legislation
had given employment No American
workingman owes anything to the
Democratic party.

Since 1896, the last year of Demo-
cratic administration in national af-
fairs, the rate of interest on farm mort
cages has fallen from per cent. to G..
This reduction in the rate of interest
means a great deal to farmers who
borrow money to buy more land or to
make improvements, and it is due to
Republican prosperity.

Baseless Charge.

The charge that Mr. Roosevelt Is IAN
unsafe man. is displOved by history.
He was governor of New York for full
years. These are the two highest eX-
ecutive posts in the nation. In neither
of them did he ever do an executive
act that has turned out disastrously
for the country? Where does the un-
safeness come in?
The pretended alarm of Democrats
ON this score is really great compli-
ment to Mr.. Roosevelt 1t is equiva-
lent to saying that he is an energetic
president. We Americans are an ener-
getic people, accustomed to doing
things instead of sitting DOWN and
dreaming about them, and why should
not we have that kind of a president?
Mr.. Roosevelt's energy is Of the
healthy American kind, and it has had
a wholesome effect upon our own peo-
pie and in other countries. A president
who has spent his life doing things is
greatly preferable to one who has
spent his life writing judicial opinions
Likewise, Parker has heard some
thing about Illegal and dishonest
trusts, but he doesn't know that there
Is anything to be done about them.
And nobody cares about his ideas on
that question. He'll never set any
river afire in his Indignation over the
trusts: not even a river Of petroleum
would be ignited by such match!
The election next month will indeed
turn upon the trustworthiness Of the
respective parties, and Republicans
bide the result with the confidence
born Of a stewardship faithfully,
courageously and successfully admins
tered.

Elect q Republican House.

Nearly every American citizen who
will vote for president in the coming
election will also vote for a represent
alive in congress. 1t is to be hoped
that no Republican will fail to vote for
the Republican candidate for congress
in his district. While the national
honor and the public welfare demand
the election of President Roosevelt,
and while the reasons for his election
are Overwhelming and unanswerable,
those for the election Of Republican
house of representatives are equally
so. With a Democratic house Mr..
Roosevelt would be almost helpless to
carry out the great Republican policies
to which he is committed. No Repub-
lican should be induced by any con-
sideration not to vote for the Repub-
lican candidate for congress in his dis
trict.
