single sentence:
Il dare to DO all that may become q
man; Who dares DO more is none"
The call of the people is for vii
liam Howard Taft. They know him.
lie is one of them. There is need this
year of q leader of practical e1per-
fence in public affairs whose principles
and policies are not subject to change
over night, and whose record in high
Office is a sufficient guaranty for ais
future performance. Mr.. Taft fulfIlS
that requirement in every detail His
record is an Unbroken story of accom-
plished results for the public welfare
No act or utterance Of his requires
apology or explanation. He is Meth
er a dOdSer nor a trimmer. He has
encountered many difficulties and mas
tered them all. His cheerincss, broad
humanity, integrity and devotion to the
principles which have made the Re
public great and powerful distinguish
him as an ideal Of American citizen
ship.
In the great political campaign upon
which the country is about to enter no
body will have the slightest excuse for
misunderstanding the attitude or
the purpose Of William Howard Taft
The record Of the Republican nominee
IS an open book in which there is
neither evasion nor contradiction. He
stands by the party platform and by
the history Of Tie party's achievements.
The Republican party presents him to
the people as j statesman and patriot
worthy to rank in succession with the
great leaders of American progress
whose names, from Lincoln and Grant
TO Mckinley and Roosevelt, are unsep-
aTably associated VITA the noblest tri-
umphs Of the Republic.

BRYAN TRUE TO SILVER IDOL
Belief In His Panacea VIII Remain
mistaken.
Declaration Of Faith Made to Cover
the Past, the Present and the
Future.

1t would be extremely unkind to
say that Mr. Bryan is tickle in his
political belief. His best friends
would be the last to make such an
assertion, for they realize thoroughly
| that their leader, when he has once
implanted a conviction firmly in his
mind, cIings to 1t like grim death.
! This is especially true OF Mr.
| Bryan's attitude on the silver cues
ton through which he first rose to
| prominence. He has very little to say
about that question at present, but
! that he is absolutely certain that
it is a subject Of the greatest i'm
Dortance and that his own particular
financial panacea is the only safe
guide for the United States may be
plainly seen from the following ex-
! tracts from his collected wisdom:
In an address at the Jefferson Club
banquet at Lincoln, Neb., December
| 20, 1900, Mr. Bryan said:
The principles for which we con
tended in the last campaign still live,
AID we who believe in them must
| continue to fight for them An cleo
ton does not change principles; it
only determines what principles shall
for the time being be applied"
| In the North American Review, in
! the same month, Mr.. Bryan recorded
this declaration Of faith:
TO consider this election as de
| cisive Of the money question would
! be as absurd as to have regarded the
election Of 1896 as decisive Of the
| tariff question. 1t would be more
| reasonable to regard the late election
| as conclusive upon the question of
| Imperialism or upon the trust ques-
ticn, both of which were discussed
more by our people than the money

assurances whatever that the gold

THE situation is intolerable to free
people. In 177G my forefathers and
yours fought and bled because they
were taxed and were not allowed rep

Prohibitionists, Socialists, and Popu-
lists are taxed and are DISTINGUISHED.
They all contribute to the support of
The state Institutions; they bear their
share of the cost of public improve
mcnts; they do all that any citizen does
to pay the running expenses Of city.
county ard state, but they are not al
lowed representation. They pay taxes
but the law prevents them saying who
shall represent them as the LEVERS Of
taxes.
More than that, this law opens a
y&wning grave to every rising man in
Arkansas who claims the right of indie
pendent thought It stiles every laud-
able political aspiration; it stands with
q flaming sword in the path Of anyone
