WHAT HARTMAN SAID.

day or two ago the stock market
report carried a story to the effect that
the drop in prices In Wall street was
attributed by some of the operators to
recent statements of J. J. Hill and f.
II. Hartman concerning the political
situation in the west. Mr.. Hills view
was that the sentiment of the people
was In favor of Bryan. and that the
Republicans In general we're apathetic.
The concluding portion of the interview
with Mr.. Hartman is as follows:
'.Here at home. however" continued
Mr. Hartman, there Is no doubt about
the return of prosperity. The only rea-
son we are not now doing as much bust
ness as before the panic is simply be-
cause il is impossible TO do two years
signs of prosperity everywhere. The
crops are good, and what is better, the
farmers have money in the bank"
Ibid you hear anything about poll
tics?'
VERY little" was the reply. THE peo-
pie out there seem to be tired of the old
issues. and there is prevalent an apathy
which. to my. mind, is dangerous to all
factions Unless something is said or
done to arouse interest there are many
who won't even go to the polls.
Is the fact that Mr. Harriman's opin-
ion that the people of the west take so
little interest in the election that they
won't even go to the polls sufficient to
cause a scare" in Wall street. or are

York a new club, the Circumnavigators.
No one who has not made a complete
circuit of the world is eligible for MEM
bership.
Mr.. Birch. great traveller, was talk
ing about travel in Burlington. The can
nibaiism that once prevailed amongst the
South Sea islanders suggested cannibal
story to him. and he said:
"A man once went to the circus. Near
the main entrance to the circus there was
side show, and vast and brilliant oil
painting portrayed in all its horrors a
cannibal feast-corpses cooking over fires,
nude natives squatting in a circle, hold
ing to their mouths grilled forearms,
hands. and such like delicacies. A genu-
inc cannibal. the poster said. was to be
seen within.
Paying a dime, the man entered. The
cannibal. very lightly clad. sat with
crossed legs on a divan, languidly toy
ing with spear. His teeth were filed.
"The visitor was a man of markedly
religious temperament, and he gaZed at
the cannibal with horror.

since his nomination at Denver is be-
You'd the possibility of truthful denial:
that the Republicans are on the run is
apparent TO all. and in the strenuous
days of the campaign yet to come it is
certain that the idol of the united DEM
ocracy will grow in the estimation of
the people until an overwhelming VIC
tory at the polls is assured.
His ponderosity. Judge Taft, is to
take the stump this week. Instead of
a discussion of the tariff and the
trusts. together with the other vital is
sues of the campaign, we shall doubt
less be treated to fine disquisition on
the Philippines, a TRADE against the
free coinage of silver and a calamity
howl. Don't elect Bryan, he's dam
will follow" will be the burden of his
song. Mr.. Bryan has nothing to fear
from Judge Taft on the stump. If the
scare" scheme is worked it will react
against the Republican candidate. for
the business men of the country, other
than the pampered beneficiaries of the
tariff, are in no mood to be trified with.
For some weeks past there has been
an advance on the road to recovery
from the effects of the Roosevelt panic,
and the seal of popular condemnation
will surely be put upon the man who
attempts TO stay the tide of returning
prosperity.
The advantage up to date is with the
Democrats, and at this time it begins
to look as though nothing could stop
the progress of the party IN the fight
for better government.

THE kAIsER's GOOD SHOOTING

NEW YORK I1meS.)
Count Zeppelin of airship fame is well
known to many American veterans. mas
much as he served calamity in the civil
war. on one occasion, 1t is remembered,
going up successfully to reconnoiter in a
balloon.

interesting old fellow-full of anecdote.
Il talked to him one day about the
kaisers wonderful shooting. l couldn't
say enough in the royal sportsman
praise.
Zeppelin winked. He said that he had
once shot with the kaiser over Count
Stolberg- Wernigerodes huge deer forests.
At the end of the day it was announced
that the kaiser had broken all records.
His deer were laid before him in long
line. The photographers began to get
their cameras ready. The kaiser had shot,
the head keeper said, siXty-four deer.
1.-The kaiser made no public contradic-
tion but as he took his pose behind his
deer for the photographers. Count Yep
pelin heard him murmur to the head keep

'Sixty-four deer. Ell? That's very odd.

the stock gamblers playing politics
while busy shearing the lambs? Mr..
Harriman's talk concerning the return
of prosperity should have produced a
feeling of confidence and hope rather
than the reverse. Be it noted, however,
that Mr.. Hartman didn't say that pros
perity depended upon the election of
Taft.
Of the opinion of Mr.. Hill that the
west was veering around in the direc-
ton of Bryan, that need give rise to
apprehension only on the part Of the
Republicans and those who are engaged
in some form of rascality which should
be followed by prosecution if either
Bryan or Taft is elected.
That the rascals fear Bryan is signifi-
cant.

Two years ago, when Mr.. Gompers
! invaded the Danville district Roosevelt
came to the rescue with fulsome and
deceptive praise of Speaker Cannon.
Today, with the Methodist church, as
we'll as organized labor, on his trail, the
president fears to put in a word. Yet
the good things alleged to have been
accomplished by congress in recent
years must have been put through by
| Speaker Cannon or they would have
failed. for the speaker is omnipotent in
the lower house. Is President Roose-
Welt also showing the white feather?
Is he afraid the Methodists will go
after Taft if a good word is said for
Cannon? Has the Bryan scare
reached Oyster Bay? 1t looks very
much like it, and it is also apparent
that the president is willing to sacrifice
any and all members of his party to
secure the election of the man he Sc
lected TO succeed himself by employing
the most un-American methods.
The truth is Speaker Cannon is Just
as good a Republican as Theodore
Roosevelt or William Taft, and just
as much entitled to the support of his
party as either of them; more so than
Mr.. Taft. for the reason that the peo-
pie of the country know what to ex-
pect of him, while the Republican cam
didate for president is hedging, twist
ing and turning in every possible man
ner making his campaign without
positively Indicating what his course
of action would be in case Of election.
| Making Cannon a scapegoat for the
sins of the party will not remedy the
wrongs inflicted by Republican dom
nation: neither would the election of
Taft bring about the full measure of
reform so ardently desired by the peo-
pIe of the United States.
The proper thing to do under the cir
cunstances is to let them all go to pot
together.
