from less causes
At the time of Judson Harmon's
birth his father was superintendent
of schools in a small Ohio town and
afterward became a Baptist preacher.
The young man said it was hard to live
up to the reputation of a minister's
son, but did not explain in what sense
he meant it. Others will interpret it
according to their ideas Of what the
reputation of minister's son really
is, provided he has any. Some of them
have only the reputation Of their ia
theirs.
An "Idop' In College.
In college Jud Harmon is described
as an "idol." Most men who become
presidential candidates are discovered
to have been "idols' in college. 1t is
at least polite to say so. Besides, time
mellows all differences, and success
conceals all defects. So it happens
that when a man has become big
enough to be mentioned for the presi-
ucuCy LIS CldSSl1dLeS are IN a state OF
enthusiasm which makes them forget
his bad points and magnify his good
ones.
1t can readily be credited, however,
that Harmon was a little tin joss
among the "rah-rah" boys. For one
thing he was and is six footer, ath.
letic and full Of animal spirits. Fol
another he was and is the soul Of good
nature. For third he was a leader In
all school FRANKS. These are qualities
that insure mans popularity in col

A Well Known Physician.

The Owensboro Messenger among
other things, has the following to say
of Dr. .. F. Tichenor, a former Ohio
c,untian, who has recently announced
as a candidate for the Democratic
nomination for Senator from the Sth
Senatorial District:
He is one of the most popular cit
liens of the county adm stands high as
member of his profession. For the
past five years Dr.. Tichenor has re-
sided in the Pleasant Ridge neighbor-
hoCd, but he is well known in every
section of Daviess and Mclean cOun-
ties. Or. Tichenor is a gentleman of
the old school and should he receive
theDemocratic nomination he will add
great strength TO the ticket next year
in the judicial race. Should he re-
ceive the nomination it is practically
certain that he will be elected by a
handsome majority. DR.. Tichenor
has never scratched the Democratic
ticket in his life and has always
worked for and supported the nom
inees of his party.

Below Is an extract from the reply
written by Robert Baker, President
of the Austin Engine Company, Brook
Ign, New York:
Austin Engine Company Office: Sec
ond Avenue and Eighth Street, Brook
Ign, N. Y, July %, 1908: New York
Leather Betting Co, 81 Beckman ST.,
New York.
Gentlemen: We have yours of July
22nd offering us copies of cards post
ed in your factories, which you say
read as follows:
Believing that the election of Taft
and Sherman means a safe and pro-
grcssive business administration, the
day following their election We shall
start this plant on FULL TINE and
KEEP GOING"
Permit us to say we do not under
stand. Why have you stopped your
factories? Why is the FULL TINE
and KEEP GOING" plan not now in
operation? Why has there been any
shutting down by you and the other
members of the National Association
of Manufacturers, the American Hard
ware Manufacturers Association and
the numerous other similar associa-
lions to which you say you belong?
Did you not assure us that Mckinley
would insure a full dinner pail' to
all who desire to work? Was not this
assurance renewed when your several
bodies endorsed Roosevelt and Fair
banks? Then what has emptied the
dinner pals of millions of men who
are willing to work? What greater
reliance can be placed on this as
surance than on the other? If you
were false prophets before, how do
we know you will not be again?"

Sir: You are stating in speech and
press, in substance, that during the
year 1899, when Attorney General
Frank s. Monnett, of Onto had sew
eral cases pending in the Supreme
Court of that State against the
Standard Oil Company, that ] sought
ITO influence him 10 dismiss those
suits. have said, and now re-
peat. that your statement is absolute
" false and that / never had any
relations of any kind or character
with the Standard Oil Company.
Our conflicting statements prove
nothing. You, as a newspaperman,
may and should desire a reputation
for truthfulness; ], as a public Off
cial demand that those who accuse
me stand forth and make their proof.
You know that suit against you
for civil damages or a criminal pros
ecution for libel means long delay and
affords your character of journalism
a chance to cover your expenses be-
fors being called upon to settle.
II do not want your money; l sim
ply desire to expose you to the pub
lie as a false accuser who has dis
tcrted public records and manufactur-
ed statements for base political pur-
poses.
"For the purpose of forever settling
this infamous Islander which you are
,circ lating in your newspapers and
on the stump, l now propose that a
con- mittee OF five, or any three OF
thea, composed Of the editors OF
the Springfield, Mass Republican,
the Chicago journal, the New York
Wtrld the Indianapolis News and
the st. Louis Republic be selected
to hear you and me under cath and
all other evidence they may desire
as to the truth or falsity of your
charges at the earliest possible mo-
ment and render their decision TO
the public in writing.
Should this committee find your
cha, ges sustained / shall withdraw
from all connection with the present
Presidential campaign. Should the
verdict be against you, as / know 1t
will, there need be no other penalty
than the public contempt due every
assassin of character"

LIFE AND DEATH
STRUGGLE IS ON
American Society of Equi-
ty Being Tested.
OPPOSITION IS A GOOD SIGN
Society IS Battling Success
fully Against Efforts
of the Enemy.

THE following article is taken from
the Equity department of The Louis
vile Courier-Journal.]
Probably never in the history Of
any mutual organization was a more
desperate and determined fight made
than is now being made to destroy
the American Society of Equity, and
with it the various tobacco associa-
lions. Men and money are being
used without stint 70 accomplish the
end so much TO be desired by those
whose interest it is to control the
prices Of the products of the farm,
and it is a matter of great regret
to know that some Of the NEST eff
ficient and willing tools are to be
fouId among the farmers. Men whoI
have bad personal experience with
these who would press downward
the prices Of the products of the
farm, are found to be willing for a
few paltry dollars to become the
aids end tools of the great oppres-
s)rs of their own brethren.
However, it is matter of conso-
laticn that their numbers are few
and that their own ccnsciences will
some day accuse them, and the dol
lars for which they sold their breth-
rem will turn to dross or as hot metal
to burn into their very souls.
The wcrk is going on notwith-
standing the great fight being made
sgainst us. 1t was to be expected
that some w5uld falter and ask to be
permitted TO put on again the yoke
Ct bondage as did The children of
Israel, and as Hundreds and thOus-
ands of weak soldiers have done in
times g, ne by, and will do again so
long as human nature is weak and
the power of the tempter is strong
The American Society of Equity may
seem TO its enemies to be failing,
but they will one day awaken to the
fact that revolutions seldom retro
grade. When brave men once make
up. their minds no longer ID wear
the yoke of any master, it is seldom
that enough SHOW the white feather
to endanger the work undertaken.
The great body of American farmers
are not towards NOR will they ever
consent to be vassals, and those
who haye suuN an idea in their
minds should get it out.
Those whD think thEt sucn work
as tae Cincinnati Commercial-Trib-
une and lesser lights in the news
paper world are doing, is going to
dive the A. S. of f. out of business
slruld realize that persecution is
the salvation of every reform that
was ever undertaken. We welcome
criticism, and such vicious criticism
as the big Cincinnati daily is maxi
ing is d1ubly welcome. If the stuff
was marked paid" it would not lP
more evident that it was paid for.
Bat by whom? If this should fall
under the eye of Cne VINO could not
guess at first guess, We would like
to have his pActcgr2ph. Let THE
good work go on, are our parting
words. Let the enemy do its worst
in order tl1at the faithful may have
work to do.
