and to stop this tendency is now.
Tending to Socialism.
The third republican tendency TO
which call your attention Is the ten
deney toward socialism. The repub-
lican party is loud in its denunciation
OF socialism, but II Is constantly feed
Ing and augmenting the socialistic
spirit, In Its latest national platform
II boldly declares that reasonable
profits should be guaranteed to the
protected industries. 1t defends the
principle of monopoly on the theory
that competition is hurtful. In TAX
Ing this position It supports the main
contention of the socialists. Mr..
Taft. the republican candidate. i'm
the speech announcing this can
didacy, advocated such amendment Of
the antitrust law as would make Il
apply to unreasonable restraint 81
trade, This idea that reasonable re-
straint of trade Is unobje"tionable IS
the entering wedge--lt Is the FIRST
,tep toward the humiliation OF the
principle of competition.
The democratic party has been
called a socialistic party and have
been denounced as a socialist. con-
tend that the republican party. not
the democratic party, is aiding the
soeiallstic party. and this is evidenced
from the fact that socialist leaders
prefer republican success to demo-
cratic success. They fear the demo-
cratic reforms will retard socialism
and they believe that republican
abuses can be used to arouse OBJ
position to the entire competitive
system. The democratic party would
argue with the socialists. while the
republican party would remove the,
spirit OF unrest aud discontention by
eliminating the abuses that are the
foundation OF the unrest,
We appeal to the sober sense OF
the American people aud ask that
they Join Us in the Inauguration OF
reforms which viii restore the gov
eminent to IT'S old foundations.

INJUNCTIONI IS
PROBABLE
MURPHY TO TAKE FURTHER
STEPS NEXT WEEK TO STOP
ARBITRARY ACTION OF COM
MISSIONERS IN RECORD CASE.

One of the most important features
slated for the special term of the
district court. which begins next
Wednesday with Judge Brown on the
bench. will be the presentation of a
writ of certiorari, which it is said
will be issued at the instigation of
Attorney +. X Murphy, compelling
the county clerk to present TO the
court certified copies of all instru-
ments in connection with the recent
action of the board of commissioners
in awarding to G.. S. Hoag contract
for re-indexing of the county records.
II is understood that Mr.. Murphy
is taking this action as a citizen of
the county, holding that the county
is to be put to great unnecessary ex-
pense and that it has been and is the
duty of the recorder to do the work
in question. The action may result
in an injunction against procedure
with the work and for this reason
occasions much interest.
Complications were in evidence
when the contract was first awarded
and at that time Mr.. Murphy pro-
tested against the action of the com
missioners, his protest being still or
file in legal form pending the arrival
of Judge Brown.
Registration protests will be taken
up at the special session and probate
matters will occupy the balance OF
the time OF the court. 1t is under
stood that a number of petitions for
administrators of estates will be sub
mitted and settlement of several es-
tates rs also expected.
