He charged Bryan with the theft of
the Roosevelt policies, quoting verse
written by friend on the subject
He concluded by saying, as did Con
gresham Lowden, that the only lamp
to guide the voters is the lamp OF ex.
perience. and that the only way to
judge the future is by the past. He
intended, probably, 10 voice an appeal
for a continuation of republican adj
ministration. but there were those who

the attitude of the republican admin
istration to tariff revision and other
reforms that the voters are cIamorins

w A. Rosenfield introduced the
chairman of the afternoon, Congress
man James Mckinney. The first
speaker of the afternoon was Con
gresham Lowden. who on opening
his remarks, stated that he was no;
present to make a speech. but merely
to present himself before the audi,
ence. He frankly declared, 1T is diff
ficult to make republican speech this
fall adding, by inference, that the
reason for this difficulty is the rapid
ity with which democratic ideas are
represented as changing. Taking ur
the democratic slogan, Shall the PEG
pie Rule?," Mr.. Lowden declared that
the people have always ruled where
the states are controlled by republi
cans. and that the only place the PEG
pie do not rule is in states that are
democratic. He concluded his brief
remarks by urging the voters to cast
a straight republican ticket.

As fieer as we can remember 1t, the editorial crackt Geo tip for telling. the truth when he was a little feller about somethi1k or other when all the fia- bers' children was lying like sixty and was proud of it. Geo. didn't Jeff he did, he never got ketched at it. Right here we wish to point out that this ort to be a sollunl. warning to Jabe Tucker, Lige Green and Cy Hoskins and other reputable citizens of Bing- vile wicll we could name. Washing ton was born in Virginia, wherever that is. and his folks had purty hard scrubbin to git along. He was grate statesman when he growd up, and it was him who led the patriots durin the Revolushion and licked the Brit ish and made this country free and in- dependent wich it has been ever sinst. He was a man of grate courage and grit his teeth when he crost the Del aware River on a dark night when the river was full of ise and him a poor skater. and attacked the Hessians sta- shioned at Trenton. He also tackeled politicks and was the 1st President of the United States,
 Geo. and his army passed the winter at Valley Forge and 1t was harder winter than we ever had around these parts, and that's going some, when you consider snow shoes was a mighty scsirse artikel them days Geo. went among his soldiers and kept them warmed up by telling them whot would happen to them if they got licked, and that it wouldn't be very long before summer ennywsy. That's the kind of man Geo. was. If it hadn't been for George Washington this country would have went to the dogs them days.
 We think a grate cal of Geo. when we are most pullin our gizzard out on our Washington hand press, wich he invented, and work almost for nothink because our slow pay subscribers don't appreciate our emulashion of Georges kurridge, manifested in different way, in trying to run first class newspaper.
