AGAINST Laborino Men.

While William H Taft is travelling
about Ohio and elsewhere making fran
tic appeals for the support of laboring
men, his running mate on the Republi-
can ticket, James S. Sherman, is CIV
Ing his endorsement to the statement
that labor unions are composed large
ly of anarchists, socialists and dema-
gogues." Mr.. Sherman heard the or
ganized wage worker of the country
thus denounced by a trust magnate
who presided at meeting where he
spoke, and gave approval of the senti-
ment expressed. When Mr.. Sherman
appeared recently at Akron, Ohio, the
meeting which he addressed was pre-
sided over by o. G. Barber, president
of the Diamond Match Company. Mr..
Barber introduced Mr. Sherman to the
audience. In doing so he made use of
the following language, as stenograph-
ically reported:
zone of the main reasons for the
success of the Diamond Match Com
pany is that it's directors HAVE
NEVER TOLERATED UNION LABOR
IN ITS SHOP. THEY HAVE AL
WAYS BEEN OPEN. We have had
no one to dictate to US what wages we
shall pay, what men we shall hire, and
what hours our employees shall work.
LABOR UNIONS TODAY ARE COM
POSED LARGELY OF ANARCHISTS,
SOCIALISTS AND DEMAGOGUES."

REPUBLICANS HOWL CALAMITY
Seek to Destroy Public Confidence in
Futile Effort to Defeat

Facing inevitable defeat and with a
full knowledge of the fact that Bry-
ans election Is as certain as anything
reasonably can 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 confidence-a confidence which
has been los. under Republican ad-
m1nistration-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 1t necessary to bring back business
prosperity? What has become of conf
dence, what has become of prosperity
Both, under Republican administra.
ton, have disappeared. Why is an.
other Republican administration neces-
sary to insure 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 men, 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 1t 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
man now suffer? Let the Republicans
howl about their own panic, and not
make false predictions about what will
happen under a Democratic admins
tration. They predicted prosperity
four years ago, and proven false pro-
phets. Why, then, should any sane
udA accept lnelr premOnltlOnS now
when they say that Bryan's election
would bring business troubles Bust.
ness troubles are already here. What
business men want is cure for them,
not a prolongation 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
false cries of Republican calamity
howlers. They know that William
Jennings Bryan Is an honest man; they
know that he will give the public an
honest administration. They know that
the calamity howl is for the sole pur.
pose of deception.
