Political Claims.

q am hopeful of Bryan's election, but the democrats will not be able to carry Ohio. and those who have been regarding the state as one or the doubtfuls might $ well put 1t in the Taft column," said H. c. Hathaway of Dayton. "The democrats of 0hio are exceptionally we'll organized this year and the republicans are quarrel ing. We will cut down the republican vote. therefore, but it would be like chas ing rainbows to say that the state would turn down it's distinguished son.
 T am in close touch with Indiana and think we will carry that state. l still think we have a chance in New York, notwithstanding the betting in in favor of Taft, but when Chairman Mack claims New Jersey and Ohio. he recalls to my mind the late Senator Calvin Brice, who was chairman of the democratic campaign committee in 1888, when Harrison defeat ed Cleveland by an overwhelming major ity MT.

Brice claimed nearly every state in the union for Cleveland, and on the afternoon of the Monday before the election gave out roseate statements to the effect that Cleveland would sweep every doubtful state and would even carry California. He was laughed at by the well informed and 'rainbow-chaser' was his nickname, but he persisted in saying that all the re- ports he had received made Cleveland 8 election certain.
 Tt is poor plan to claim too much It msleads the innocent and raises false hopes. silent campaign chairman is usually more successful than the optimis- tic talker. The democratic chairman in 1892, MT. Harrity, was retcent, and the late Mark Hanna, who elected Mckinley did little claiming in the public prints. Indeed, all his talk was on the scare line MT. Mack is a politician of experience, and no better man for his arduous, nerve racking job could have been found this year. But 1t is hoped he will moderate his claims to the extent of dropping Ohio and other states known to be republican,. '

Lonuworth's Mine.

Chicago.-The bombshels that eliminat- ed Senator J. B. Foraker and Charles N Haskell from the present campaign were as souib frecrackers alongside four-inch gun compared to the political mine exploded by Representative Nicholas I,ongworth at Sterling, H., when he un- bosomed himself of the startling an- nouncement that Roosevelt should suc- ceed Taft in 1916.
 Republicans are at loss how to com bat the democratic argument that if the openly avowed plan is to re-elect MT. Roosevelt in 1916 there is no telling where it may stop. This is free country the democrats argue-a republic; self-gov- erning people. Here are some views of the speech
 Urey Woodson, secretary democratic na- tional committed: "No doubt it would be pleasant to Mr. Longworth to establish such a republican dynasty as he sug- gests Where would Nicholas come in? In time, I suppose he hopes the throne would descend to him. His statement should be considered seriously. as he surely would not make it unless he had the highest authority for it.'
 Thomas Taggart, national committee man from Indiana: '.Mr. Longworth evi- dently makes serious proposal. There is every reason for believing that he tells what the President plans to accomplish His words should receive the serious att tention of the American people, and every man who votes for Taft should understand he is voting to establish royal family

NEGROES HELPING DEMOCRATS

West Virginia has she worst no.
groes in the south and they are
working hard to roll up a big ma
jority. Angered by the action of
the Democratic state convention de-
claring for negro dlsfranchisement
and Jim Crow laws. they are max
ing themselves as Offensive as pos
sible and becoming violent.
The Bluefleld Leader of recsnt
date narrates two illustratly. incl
dents. In ono case a negro planted
himself In the aisle of a railway
train and refused to let anybody
pass. When the white newsboy at
tempted to push by 10 attend to ais

negro and severely beaten before

man. When told to move he re-
piled that no Jim Grow laws wen.

where he chose. The negroes pres

the few white passengers from at

SIGNIFICANCE OF THE DUPONT
INCIDENT.

The act OF General DUPONT calls
attention once again, and emphasiz-
es the tendency OF .he times, to the
determination of the people n this
country to teach great corporations
that the laws arc made for them as
well as for the masses of the people.
There ~ a strong determination to
teach such corporations and combi-
nations that they must submit to
reasonable regulation by law
Knoxville Journal and Tribune.
Nothing could b mJre encourag-
ing TO the friends OF honest politics
than such Incidents as the with
drawal OF General DUPONT from the
Republican campaign committee
whether his resignation was Volun-
tary or was handed in at the de-
nand Of President Roosevelt. Il is
barely possible that other members
Of that committee will follow suit
before The campaign ends.
General DUPONT was taking quite
prominent part 10 the manage
ment OF the Republican campaign

THE CHURCH VOTE.

The Daily Leader has not on.
posed the election OF Mr.. Taft on
account OF his religious views. II
takes the ground that the best In.
terests of the country demand The
slection OF Mr.. Bryan because his
policies are best suited to the needs
OF the whole people. 1t looks upon
Mr.. Taft as an honest and honora-
Die man, but whose acts would be
biased by the influence OF the AL
drichs, the Shermans, the Cannons
and their representatives of the
predatory interests, whose influence
would be wholly against the best
interests OF the nation. 1t has not
sought to Influence votes against
MT Taft because OF his peculiar re-
iigious views and the following OK

ness Of Mr.. Taft and the strength
Cf Mr.. Bryan before the people.
