HISTORY IN A NUTSHELL.

Tho democratic party has for nearly
half i century been occupied most of
tn. time in denouneing republicanism;
and yet republican principles and re
publican policies in all the emergencies
which have confronted the republic
have saved the country's veal and are
the principles and the policies of tb9
country today. are established IN the
organic law and in the statutes and are
part of the basis of the nation stability
material, moral and political, and its
declarations IN the present campaign
are the hope Of the country for the i'm
mediate future.
The republican party IS party OF
action, the democratic is a party of
complaint and bootless denunciation
Nothing advocated by the democracy
in all the long years from the slave
holders session to free silver and anti
imperialism, 4" has place today in the
constitution or in the laws of the ma
ton. Why the democracy has never
been able to produce effective states
manship or to command the confidence
of the nation il too large problem for
paragraph. but the fact itself is I'M
disputed and is a part of the history OF
the country. just as the democratic
party of a years ago in the midst of
the war carried on by republican adj
ministration for the preservation Of the
Union declared the war "a failure,
SO today the democracy of 1903, led by
a twice beaten candidate whose political
ISSUES" of the past are in the junk
pile Of discarded rubbish is declaring
the republican administration war
against special privilege to be failure.
But the average citizen well knows
that 10 place the democracy in charge
of this great work the progressive
development" of the Roosevelt policies
could result in nothing but disaster
TO the progressive cause to say nothing
of most serious injury TO the business
interests of the country. The sound
common sense of the plain people may
in the light of history and of the cir
'cumstanees of the present day be relied
upon TO stand by the safe, sane and
vigorous craftsmanship exemplihed in
William Howard Taft, destined to be
Theodore Roosevelt successor, a lega-
tee of the glorious traditions of the
grand old party and equipped as few
been for its high duties Eau Claire

GovERnoR DAVIDSON coMhENpEp

Who has made better governor of
Wisconsin than James o. Davidson?
Who has stood by his duty in palmer,
ADLER and more sensible manner? 1t is
a mighty hard place to fill. Big prob
lens are before Gov. Davidson, such
for instance, as the completion of that
six million dollar capitol building. He
is one Of tae commission and grandly
has he Iahored TO secure for the people
the full value of their money. Wis
consin is ahead as state in splendid
manner. The solid hard sense of Cover
nor Davidson has been gyeat help in
this direction. We gave him big vote
two years ago when he had powerful
opposition. Let US do the same thing
again this year. Governor Hoard in

CONGRESSIONAL SITUATION

One of the very important offices Tor
which candidate is to be nominated
next Tuesday is that of representative
in congress. In deciding the question,
the three candidates should be espec-
tally considered to ascertain il possible
who is best qualified for the position.
1t is an office for which every man is
not qualified. A man be a fair honest
man but have no qualifications for a
seat in the national legislative body.
1t seems to us that A. w. kopp Of
Grant county is the logical candidate.
He is young man and one who has
been student of economic questions
all his life.
We want man in congress who can
think for himself; and who can speak
for himself; we want man in congress
who is honest and who will work we
want man In congress who is in favor
of progressive legislation, now before
the people, and who believes in the
rigid enforcement of the law; we want
a man in congress who can be depended
upon to vote right on every matter that
comes uI, for consideration, and one of
whom We can always feel proud when
We point TO his record.
Such man is Arthur w. kopp.
Vote for him. ADV.
