NOTHING so stimulates business and
enlivens trade in any community as a
good labor-employing institution. A
good factory, if small, is a great benefit
1t not only keeps money in circulation
and tides over dull times, but it adds
materially to the consumption of all
farm produce and improves the market
for those perishable articles that must
be consumed where they are grown.
Any community that acts tremendously,
and sets out with determination to get
a factory, can do so. And now is an
opportune time. Labor troubles and
high taxes are driving a great many fac
tories from the large cities.

No one trouble is responsible for more

So reliable is Mona in curing all forms

Ghas. Rhodes gives a signed guarantee

THE following editorial com ment upon
the congressional election at large as we'll
as the letter recently written by President
Roosevelt to Congressman Watson, of
Indiana, appeared in this mornings Sagi-
nav Courier Herald. We reproduce the
editorial i'll full, believing it to be of
interest to every voter i'll the eleventh
congressional district:
"The coming congressional campaign is
perhaps as important as any congressional
campaign of the decade. Certainly its
results will have more to do with the inn
mediate welfare of the country than the
presidential election a year and half
hence. 1t is practically foregone cop
clusion that whoever is elected to fill Mr..
Roosevelt's place will continue the poll
cies which he has inaugurated He will
be elected on that basis. There can be
no doubt of the satisfaction of the great
majority of the people with these policies
and their belief in the efficacy of the
measures that Mr.. Roosevelt and the last
congress devised for dealing with abnor-
NAL business and financial conditions.
" fact, no man, Republican or Democrat,
dare declare himself candidate for the
presidency OH any other grounds than a
virtual continuance of these policies.
The president, himself, in his remark
able letter to Congressman Watson of
Indiana points out that the credit OF what
has been already accomplished is due as
much to the ffty-ninth congress and its
leaders as to himself. Without the en-
lightened support of the republican con-
gressmen, most Of whom are now going
before their constituents for endorsement,
the president could have done nothing.
And were the congress elected at large
as the president is, there could be little
doubt that the electorate would acknow-
ledge this by returning it to Office, just

THE loss in wages to labor alone which
would result from the natural and always
expected halt that precedes any general
tariff revision would amount to many
hundred million dollars This was one
of the declarations made by Speaker
Cannon in the course Of his convention
address a few days ago. 1t is a state
ment suggested by memory, by thesinci-
dents and accompaniment of former tariff
revision and changing periods.
Thirty years service in congress has
given some power OF prophecy to Uncle
Joe and it will be well for his countrymen
if his words of wise warming are needed.

ONE week from next Tuesday the en-
rolled voters OF Gratiot county and the
eleventh congressional district will be
called upon to express their choice of
candidates for county, senatorial, repre-
sentative and congressional. Officers to be
voted for at the election to be held in
November This is the first time that
the people of Gratiot county and the
eleventh congressional district have been
given the opportunity of expressing their
individual choice of candidates. In this
instance the caucus and convention sys-
tenn is relegated to the rear and every
enrolled voter becomes a delegate and by
his vote expresses a choice of the various
candidates now asking for their suffrage
The RECORD believes that when the bal
lots are counted on the evening of Sep
TENDER 4th, it will be found that the vot-
ers of Gratiot county and the eleventh
congressional district have acted wisely.
In this county and district a nomina-
ton is equivalent to an election, hence
extreme care and caution should be used
III the selection of the various candidates
The voters of the eleventh congressional
district appreciate the above fact, and
believing that the interests of the district
state and nation can be better sub
served by one who has had actual expert
ence in the duties required of a candidate
representing the eleventh congressional
district of Michigan in the halls of Con-
gress will, con Sept. attn for the fourth
time, name Gratiot county's honored cit
zen, Archibald B. Darragh as their stand
ard bearer. Two years ago, Immediately
following Mr.. Darraghs nomination at
Clare, the Traverse City Herald (now
presenting the claims of George c. Cow
ell, as matter of local pride, Mr.. Covell
being Grand Traverse county citizen)
said:
"Mr Darragh's nomination will meet
the hearty approval of our people. He
has done good work and has won we'll
earned reputation as a careful, earnest
and discreet member Of congress- He
will have the hearty support of Grand
Traverse. His ability IS conceded, his
integrity is unquestioned, ard his work
for Grand Traverse and his whole district
speaks for itself. The voters III the
northern counties will set the pace for
the entire district in the work of the
campaign, and at the polls in November"
What stronger recommendation could
one ask, especially coming as it did after
Mr. Darragh had served four years at
Washington.
