Attorney General to pay, at any
time, the amount that it may be de-

FROM CANNON'S SPEECH
PROSPERITY FOR ALL

PROSPERITY FOR ALL
"This remarkable prosperity under
the Dingley law has not been for
one class but for all the people. 1t
has touched the artisan, the farmer
the manufacturer, and the common
laborer of the country. All have
felt its benefcient influence, and l
measure my words when l say that
the production from all kinds of
business enterprise has doubled
since that memorable year of 1896,
when the country in its distress
turned to William Mckinley, the
champion of Protection, as the ad.
vance agent of prosperity. The
capital employed in our industries
has doubled; the total wages paid
for labor have more than doubled
in these ten years; the farmers have
lifted their mortgages and are en-
joying the embarrassments of
surplus in the savings banks; and
laborers have ceased to hunt for
jobs and have become the hunted by
the jobs; in spite oflargeimmigration
from other lands, there is more
work than workers in this country
today. Capital is cheaper than ever
before, and money can be had at
less intesest than anywhere else in
the world. The sun of prosperity
is shining on every part of our i'm
mense stretch of territory, from the
Atlantic to the Pacific and from the
Great Lakes to the Gulf and the
Rio Grande. We are at peace with
all the world, and our influence for
peace whether it be between two
great powersin the Orient or among
the small republics on the Ameri-
can continent, is felt throughout
the world.
''The record of the servant is his
best and only certificate for contin
uous employment, and the Repub.
lican party, as a servant OF the
people, stands today in this cam
paign squarely on its record.
"We have no census as to bnsi-
ness conditions in 1896, but we
have them for 1890, 1900 and 1905
and to suppliment these we have

SUCKERS CAN'T BE SAVED.

Decrying fraud and branding fakirs is one of the pleasant pastimes of the newspaper writer. By doing so he may sometimes prevent the victimizing of an hon. est but simple minded man. But there is one man who cannot be saved. He is the one on whose brow truthful nature has written 'sucker.n If it were possible to save him, nature would be belied and nature never lies. Sometimes it is hard to believe that nature has not erred in some particular case, but in the end you find it 50.
 Sympathy bestowed upon the sucker, because he is simple minded, is sympathy wasted His honesty is only pocket deep and he is victimized only because he thinks he is swindling someone else. He is gold bricked only be- cause he thinks he has found a man who IS fool enough to give him $lO.000 for S10. While his SlO are being stolen from him he believes he is stealing a much larger sum from the man with whom he is dealing, or from some one whom he does not know.
 The same man will bny a lot on blue print drawing for $25 be- cause he thinks 1t IS worth S25,0 ,090 and that the man who owns 1t is in pinch for money He will buy it with the intention of getting the s25.000 for himself while tho other fellow gets only the measly ; little $25. When he finds that he has a deed to a piece of atmosphere q hundred miles out in some ocean or strip of sand in desert a hundred miles from nowhere or anywhere, he becomes suddenly and strenuausly honest and will have the swindler prosecuted, not because Of the few dollars he has lost, but in the interest of honesty and good citizenship. He will tell his troubles to the newspaper reporter and groan out several columns Of whines.
 But watch him for while and you will see him sneak into the office of the bunco steerer who is not so simple minded and you will hear something like this:
 Say, Mr. can't We fix this matter up, somehow or other, so l can get my s25 back?p
