VOICE FROM THE TOMB.

A voice from the dead, as it were,
has spoken. 1t is the voice Of great
statesman, a former democrat, and yet
the voice speaks for Taft for president.
The late Grover Cleveland, ex-presi-
dent of the United States. was prepar-
ing for the New York Times a series
of articles upon public questions when
he was interrupted by the angel of
death and only a portion of his views
We're engraved upon the tablets of time
by means of the printed record. Thru
and the Chicago Tribune the first of
the series has been published.
Mr. Cleveland argues that the nation
is vastly better than it was by reason
of the past few years Of agitation for
common honesty In business. He be-
lieves that the best results can come
from continuity of policy and he
looks upon the election of Taft as the
best selection that could happen for
the country. He points ito Taft's splen-
did record aus a judge in Cincinnati and
says that he will be able to enforce
the rule of common honesty in big
business without throwing the coun-
try into a panic.
Mr. Cleveland believed to be of para
mount Importance. He believed that
neither the election of Bryan nor of
Taft would create much of disturb
ance to business but he explained
that since this country had become in
volved with eastern possessions 1T could
avoid war only by the most careful and
wise craftsmanship, and he says that If
Taft had nothing to commend him but
his Philippine record that should be
sufficient to make him by far the first
choice for the peace and prosperity OF
the country.
There is not word of criticism OF
BRYAN, t,ltho there is a clear recogni-
ton of the dangerous growth of So
cialism as represented in the socialist
vote, the social labor and independence
league movements. Mr.. Cleveland
preferred Taft simply because of the
personal qualifications of the man, the
fact that he would be best able to con-
tinue Roosevelfs policies and was
equipped with the experience neces-
sary to handle the eastern question
with care and wisdom. His voice COM
ing now from the tomb will have ire
mendous influence among his people
for Grover Cleveland was one of the
nations great presidents.

the SPIRIT OF COMPROMISE.

All eyes of those interested political
" will be turned upon Des Moines to-
day. The legislature is convening.
There is supposed to be peace Within
the republican party and the universal
question is, "Will somebody kick 1t
over?" Among all the volumes of adj
vice given it the legislature can we'll
afford to listen ITO the following from
1.-THE Cedar Rapids Republican, which is
uncompronlisingl opposed to the wis
dom of the special session and to the
man who called it. The Republican
says:
"That duty is to amend the primary
law along the lines agreed to ait the
republican conference in Des Molnes
with all possible expedition. and then
adjourn If that task requires here
and there a compromise, honorable in
character, such concessions are vastly
preferable to any policy leading to an
imbroglfo which may we'll lead to dis
astrous results This is not the time
to exchange blows ait the party's ex-
pense, if indeed, that time has ever
come"
We can ali unite upon that program
and go ahead. The work ITO be done
is to amend the primary law and the
agreed purpose is to so amend it that
democrats will be further excluded
from participation in republican pri-
maries. The exact method and detail
discussed at the conference is, of
course. not binding upon the legisla-
ture, but wisdom would dictate that
the general purpose of the conference
be adopted by the law making body
The only real difference of opinion will
come on the point as to how to keep
tine democrats out If there is danger
of unconstitution lity, as the demo-
Gratis say there is, the danger should
be discussed candidly and be avoided
with care "This is not the time to ex-
change blows at the party's expense,
as the Republican says, and factional
correspondents should not be permitted
by mana ging editors to make 1t appear
that either side is showing bad farth
or hedging, when it raises some point
of difficulty for consideration.
No one All any time has believed thai

results which would be deplorable In

s.
the extreme.
1t is not often that congress has
shown itself fitted to deal wisely with
conditions outside our borders, COM
pared with it's handling of domestic
affairs, and our political economy
places such a potentiality for mischief
in our deliberative :assemhage that 1T
might undo all the craft of state and
the wisdom and conservatism Of the
executive For months the Indications
have been that the next congress would
see many new faces, and the country
may look for republicans from the
south and democrats from New Eng
land at a rate and with a diffusion that
will be truly surprising.
But when the misadventures OF par.
ties misled by sophisticated, sympa-
thy-nlad leaders trumpeting false calls
to reform, the treacherous distortions
Of sentiment by subordinating private
interests, and the we'll meaning but ov-
erheated laundering of the impetuous
are all met and ordinated, there must
rise the final good, for the hand of the
Almighty lies to hold and guide steadi-
", unwavering and eternally secure.

come to the fulfillnent Of our mission,
foretold with our birth, nobly begun IN
our youth, for the uplifting OF our race
and our brothers to the favOrs not our

TAFT AND THE RAILROADS.

Theodore P. Shonts, president Of the
road systems, has done something very
striking for a railroad official. He has
come out in an official announcement
of political nature. He declares for
Taft and says that as a square deal
can be expected by railroads from the
republican nominee if elected, every
railroad man, officer as well as en-
ploye. should work for his election. He
calls attention to the Taft utterances
regarding railroads, including Tafts
belief in government regulation, but
not operation, and says no honest rail-
road man should have anything to fear
in the Taft views on railroad ques-
tons.
Mr. Shonts reviews the statement
made by Taft a year ago in Columbus.
o., to the effect that good business OF
and that new railroad construction in
returning prosperous times is sure to
be essential to our material progress.
Next to the agricultural interest of
the United States, the railroads are
the most important industrially, and
for the chief of two great systems to
come out in his official capacity and
urge the success of a presidential cam
didate is of more than ordinary sig
nificance. Taft's pronunciamentos
about railroad matters have been I'M
mistakable and it is not only their
soundness but their plainness that has
impressed Mr.. Shonts. Taft is for fun
publicity of accounts of railroads and
for an adjustment OF rates which will
give fair return on the investment
which is demanded by the peculiar
risks of the business.
But new railroad construction, re-
ferred to by Taft, is most important
to the country generally just at this
time The history of the country has
demonstrated that the years OF general
prosperity, when labor was fully en-
ployed, when trade touched high wa
ter mark and when new records were
made in every line of business, were
years when railway construction was
most active.
1t is the railroads purchases of iron,
steel, cement, ties, timber of all de-
scriptions and other items entering in
to construction which are such an inn
petus to other lines of industry, to say
nothing of the new cars and engines
which have to be bought, and which
are an indirect stimulus from the rail-
roads to so many avenues of produce
ton. If Shonts believes Taft's election
will build railroads, lets vote with
Shonts.

lit would be wise to require that ball
lot be voted straight all the way down
the list of candidates before being
counted on the senatorial office. Some
have suggested that 1T should be voted
for presidential electors, and legisaa-
tive candidates; others that it be voted
for electors and congressman; still
others that 1t be voted for the party
candidates for electors, congressman,
governor and Legislators and then the
questions bobbed up, what about the
the candidate for governor any more
advantage than the candidates for lieu
tenant governor secretary of state,
treasurer. auditor, railroad commits
sioner, etc.?"
The democrats, too, complain that If
any particular office is specified AS the
one for which the republican candidate
must be voted as a condition for par
ticipation in the senatorial primary
there Immediately arises a duress upon
the voter to vote for that candidate, a
violation of the freedom of the AUS
tralian ballot This is not am idle nor
vain contention. Desire to participate
in a primary does amount to duress
when denied and is an inducement
held out to influence vote. The prob
abilities are that the test of republic
canism will have to be made general
rather than specific The general aver
age of voters ballot could be ac
copied as determining his partyism and
be made the qualifying rule as ito par
ticipation in the primary.
But whatever is done IF the task
requires here and there compromise,
honorable in character as the Repub-
lican says. "such concessions are vast
~ preferable to any policy leading to
an mbroglio.' Let us all have faith
in the legislature and believe that 1t
will find a way out of difficulty with
out 'imhroglio or exchange of blows.
Just hold back the factionalists.

Some of the improvements which
help to destroy the diseomforts of farm
life are private water works, with law

The last consignment of the largest
order for bridge steel and cables ever
given in this country has been sent to
New York from Pittsburg. The order
was for $4,000 tons of the best and
most costly material and 1000 cars
We're required to transport it, Does
that sound much like hard times?
If man voted for every republican
candidate on his ticket except one, he
would still be a republican wouldn't
he? How about 1T if ne voted for two
thirds or more of the candidates on a
republican ticket?
Whatever the legislature does in the
way of amendment let 1T be made to
stand in law. We have had one pri-
mary this summer with no results, and
we do not want third one.
Those who like to violate particu-
lar law under the mistaken assumption
that the majority of the public are with
them. forget that the public majority
was represented in the making of that
same law.

Topics of the Times

That fellow in Usage has made an
artful dodge. He has stipulated to his
girl that the knot shall be tied only
when Bryan is elected. If the girl
knew al little more about politics she
would know what this means.
Tt doesn't help a man to compromise
to have LATE Young's paper telling MIN
that his votes heretofore have all come
from the democrats.
Atlantic City stories say the Sunday
closing controversy on with Governor
Fort has much politics in it. The only
kind that ought to be in it is the good
kind that insists on law obedience.
We sometimes think that this
month. the month of the cantaloupe, IS
the ideal season of the year.
The farmer wha can't build a hog
house this fall will never see Il time
when he can. With hogs and corn ui
and lumber down what more could be
asked?
Taft says the strength of the repub-
lican cause is in the fact that we rep
resent policies essential to the reform
OF we'll known abuses" Bear that in
mind.

part of johnson men does not seem to
