The Penn's Grove record., 1908-10-30
The Day is Dawning

For twelve years the Penn's Grove
RECORD has advocated Organism as no
other county paper in this State. The
money question which was paramount at
that time was only one of the questions
included in Organism which is more
fully included in the question, "Shall
The People Rule? and not Incorporated
wealth.
We are as conscientious that we were
as right then as now and that time
would prove MI. Bryan's position cor
rect on general principles. MI. Bryan
is the same to-day as twelve years ago
and time has proved that Organism is
right and should prevail. 1t was more
money--not necessarily silver-butmor
gold and bank notes that brought what
prosperity there has been. The reign
of trusts and monopolies has made
more millionaires than ever before and
have increased the cost OF manufact
ure articles so that the man who gets
ST.. so a day now as then has had the
purchasing value of his dollar reduced
as much as if there had been free coin
age Of silver.
Twelve years ago we concluded our
editorial before election as follows;
ave can wait for time to justify our
position and bring a reward.
''For humanity sweeps onward
Where o-day the martyr stands
On the morrow crouches Judas
With the silver in his hands;
In the van the stake is ready
And the lurid fagots burn
But the hooting mob of yesterday
In silent awe return
And gathers up the scattered ashes
Into History's golden urn.'"
The fact that MI. Bryan now has a
united party behind him and many
republican have expressed theil
intention to vote for him is proving
the above true. AS time progresses, as
people study economic questions more:
the more true it will become, Ii he be
elected Tuesday the people will have
a victory. If he had been elected
twelve year ago they would have had q
much greater victory, because there
wonld not have been the saturnalia OF
graft and grab uuder special privilege
laws which the country has endured.
The Penn's Grove record., 1908-10-30

The great paramount issue to be de-
cided by the election next Tuesday is
whether their shall be officials elected
to office who are not under obligations
to the incorporate wealth and trusts of
this country.
President Roosevelt began his career
as a Civil Service RefOrmer. He has
made a show, for political effect, OF an
moving a few corporations, but he has
only irritated a small sore, and not
gone to the root. He has fallen from
the high pinnacle of civil service and
built a dynasty of his own against the
action of which no word is tolerated. He
is using all the powers of government TO
carry the election against a free Will
expression of the people.
Never in all English speaking history
since the reign of Charles | has there
been an oligarcy to equal that which
President Roosevelt is now proStitu-
ting his office to enforce his will by
ordering all his cabinet and officials to
carry an election.
Charles l lost his, head and some
sober minded people think that Nh.
Roosevelt has lost his, or never had a
correctly balanced one to loose.
The paramount question is whether
our officials and courts shall be COM
posed of men who believe that men
have individual rights worthy of re-
spect, against incorporate power, as
much as a black man had fifty years
g against his owner. Shall a man
be entitled to a trial by jury when an
exception may he taken to the Judge
made law in the absence of the court
which is a mar like other men with
like infirmities and p%rejudices.
The nomination Of MI. Bryan twelve
years ago was the first time in forty
years that a candidate was named in
dehnance of the incorporate wealth of
the country. Because Grover Cteve-
land was called a democrat all the
faults of his administration Mr.. Bryan
had to carry, besides the issue was
new. The people were scared, bull
dozed and bought then. The startling
revelations since has proved it.
Those who study inside history OF
the tariff, finance and the power of
incorporate wealth, with an unset
fish mind, a not fail to be con

REPUBLICANS HOWL CALAMITY
Seek to Destroy Public Confidence In
Futile Effort t Defeat
Rryan.

Facing inevitable defeat and with a
ans election is as certain as anything
reasonably a be in politics, the Re-
publicans have been forced to resort
to the last refuge of political towards
TO the calamity howl. They are now
engaged in telling the country that
panic and ruin will follow the election
of Mr.. Bryan. Instead of being patri-
otto citizens anxious to restore bust
ness c-onfidence-a confidence which
has been lost under a Republican ad-
ministration-to subserve their own
political selfish purposes they are vain
ly endeavoring to prolong the present
business depression. The question
naturally suggests itself: Why is it
necessary to restore confidence? Why
is it necessary to bring back business
prosperity? What has become of conf
dence, what has become of prosperity?
Both, under a Republican administra-
ton, have disappeared. Why is an
other Republican administration neces-
sary to insure a return of confidence
and prosperity?
The very same men who, today, are
going about the country still further
destroying confidence by preaching
calamity, are the e who, four years
ago said that the Republican party
must be successful in order that there
might be prosperity. The Republican
party was successful, but instead of
bringing prosperity it brought panic,
business depression and commercial
stagnation. Whatever may be said of
the present panic, it cannot be denied
that it is a Republican panic. The
Republican party is in full possession
of the government and must accept
the responsibility. How, then, can a
continuation of the Republican party in
power cure the evils from which the
business community and the laboring
mar now suffer? Let the Republicans
howl about their own panic, and not
make false predictions about. what will
happen under Democratic admins
tration. They predicted prosperity
four years ago, and proven false pro-
phets. Why, then, should any san
man accept their p~remonitions now
when they say that Bryan's election
would bring business troubles. Bust
ness troubles are already here. What
business men want is a cure for them,
not a p~rolongation of the disease by
the same sort of treatment which has
produced the ailment.
Because business men and laboring
men both know that Republican ad-
ministration has produced panic, they
will not be deceived again by these
