ALL SIGNS POINT TO VICTORY.
Voters Realize Worth OF Democratic
Platform and Candidate.

In 1896 and 1900 Mr. Bryan had no
effective party organization back of
him In the great states where he must
win to be elected In the central west.
crn states the Democrats were
never so well organized as
now, the Cleveland campaign
of 1892 not excepted. In Hi.
nols Mr. Adlal Stevenson is the Demo
cratic candidate for governor. In Ohio
Mr.. Judson Harmon Is the guiding
spirit Of the party, Mr.. Johnson is
again the candidate for governor in
Minnesota. The Democrats are every
whore putting forward their men Of
character and ability. The Repub.
Leans, on the other hand, are tor
mented by factions and feuds In nearly
all these great states of the central
west. This year Missouri is as solidly
Democratic as South Carolina. In
1904 Roosevelt carried Missouri be.
cause $4,000 Democrats remained
away from the polls. They will not
stay at home this year.
But more important than OrganiZa-
ton. Republican apathy, and the issues
of the campaign, is the markedly
changed attitude of the people toward
the Democratic candidate There are
still many persons who do not yet
know and understand Mr.. Bryan. but
If the great number of people who
have come to appreciate his character
and ideals since he was last a candi
date, vote for him, there can be no
doubt OF his election. As a pointer in.

the Republican party in the west, out

AIMING TO DECEIVE

WORTHY REPUBLICAN.
Comparison Of His Speech Of Accept.

Roosevelt he might acquire considera.
Bile popularity, for the west loves Il

But the west is paving more attention
TO what he says and what he does not
say than TO his personality
Two months ago the genial Taft was
notified at Cincinnati of his nomination
for the presidency. Ills acceptance
dealt with almost everything in the
public mind, including the tariff.
Now, the tariff is the all-important
issue OF this campaign, especially to
the west, which Il taxes for the bene.
fit OF the cast, and when Judge Taft
accepted the nomination, this part of
the United States was distinctly dis.
appointed at his tariff conclusions.
His present tour of the west has left
an unpleasant uncertainty, instead Of
the original disappointment. Has TIE
candidate changed his mind since
July 2S? II not. what are We TO be.

In his speech of acceptance Judge
Taft raised our hopes by stating that
the Dingley law In some respects eN.
ceeded the recognized Republican pol.
icy of providing difference between
foreign and home cost Of production
sufficient to give the American pro.
Queer n reasonable" profit, whatever
that may be, and thus tempted monop
oily to excessive profit. But he added
that there are other schedules in
which the tariff Is not sufficiently
high to give the measure of protection
which they should receive upon Re
publican principles, and as TO those the
tariff should be raised"

This appears hardly to 1T with his
views on the 2Sth day OF July in Gin

sire to lower the tariff on some things
but raise 1t on others.
