show. Prosperity of Unions.

"rhey are not gone" replied Mr..
Taft. 1.-The labor organizations today
are more prosperous, have more intiu
ence have more lawful control than
they ever had in their lives before. The
American Federation of Labor has in
creased its numbers 100 per cent. The
international Typographical union in
its annual report showed an increase
from $4,000 to $4,000. They paid in
five millions of dollars; they had $780,
600 in their treasury and they never
had such prosperity or influence in
their lives and the basis upon which
those organizations have been con-
structed are the legal lines which laid
down in my legal opinions. Therefore,

life that has done more to legalize and
give force and standing to labor unions
than l have"

THE NEMESIS.
BY JAMES j. MONTAGUE.

Bryan had little Past he thought had
been forgot,
But everywhere he wandered it was
Johnnie on the Spot.
When he cried, I'm strong for honest
menu
His Past rose up and wildly yelled,
"Rah! Rah Sixteen TO one!"
When lie said, Labor ought to have a
fair and honest chance"
The Past bawled, "Yes. but Working
men are public mendicants"
When he said. "Down with Trusts that
swould the populace despoil"
His Past observed, Save Haskell and
his friend, the Standard Oilm
When Bryan yodled, Railroads are n
thing that men should spurn."
His Past remarked unfeelingly. They're
mighty good to Kern"
When he said 81 have never sought

His Past observed, Except. of course,

"I stand upon my record" often Bryan

And then his Past would whisper,
Boys, there amt no record

He lodged about and in and out, and
when men saw him last
He still was vainly seeking to escape
from little Past.

An Upright Judge.

The attempt to make the Republican
candidate out the enemy of labor fails
in the light of the facts. Judge Taft
has demonstrated that as IL judge he
did what the law required him to do.
and if he had done otherwise he would
have been entitled to no respect from
the labor or any other interests. Some
of his decisions have provided the
ground upon which labor organizations
have protected themselves, and have
been cited on the labor side of subse-
quent cases before other courts.-Phil.
adelphia Press.

For all time these matchless victories
in war, and constructive craftsmanship
in peace, will stand to the credit of the
Republican party.
known by Its Fruits.
The Republican party never has had
factions within itself concerning issues
1t has been unanimous in knowing what
it stood for. There is something about
the Republican party that sends things
up above par, and something about the
Democratic party that sends things
down below par Above par is sun
light, summer, hope and plenty. Above
par is the fire light dancing on the
walls of contentment, to the song OF
the kettle singing ON the hearth OF
plenty. Below par, Hunger and Want
and Bankruptcy sit breeding by dead
! ashes, while the candle of life cutters
down to the shape of winding sheet
banning Record.
The people of this country only once
in nearly half century have listened
to Democratic promises, followed Dem
ocratic advice, and placed that party
in power. During that Democratic adj
ministration our national debt increased
half million dollars each day. Each
day we lost q half million dollars in
foreign trade; farm products decreased
more than $5OO,OOO.OOO. Fear, distrust
and panic paralyzed the great industrial
! system Of our country banks closed
their doors; business houses assigned I;
the balance Of trade was against us !;
bonds were issued; capital withdrew
from the field of legitimate enterprise
into secret places; labor was forced in
to unwilling idleness; we had deserted
mills, smokeless factories, silent ma
chinery.
What has the Democratic party done
to command confidence that gives it a
right to assume to advise the American
people. The Democratic party asks al
ways to be Judged by the future and not
by the past. 1t always asks to be
judged by it's promises and not by its
performances. Why should a party
that brought upon us the horrors of the
Cleveland administration, that went
hysterical over free silver, party that
has learned nothing in fifty years, that
has forgotten nothing in fifty years, 9
party that has not kept a promise il
fifty years, party that has not beer
right in fifty years-why should this
party assume that with it wisdom
shall perish from the earth?
The Democratic party always has it:
face to the past and its back to The
future. 1t never sees an opportunity
until it is passed. and never gets on thu
right side of any issue until it is set
tied. Such is portion of the recort
, country's conscience. and the country
welfare, the oft-defeated, discouraged
; disorganiZed, disgraced, divided, de
crepit old Democratic party. 1t stand
, to-day without an issue, without prin
ciple, without a policy, without plat
l form, without a leader, and withou
, hope.
The first voter should vote and vot
. right He will vote right by votin
for Taft and Republican prosperity.

The voters of the United States will
certainly understand Mr.. Taft by cleo
ton day, and we shall see whether they
desire such an orderly advancing of the
interests of good government of honest
and sound progress all along the line,
as he promises-for he is a Transparent

Roosevelt policies, and can be trusted to
stand for them with wisdom and
strength. -Sprinsiiel Republican.

One of the issues in every campaign
is that of labor legislation. All parties
claim to be the friend of labor. and it is.
but natural that this would bring out
the facts.
This year the Democratic party is do
ing more claiming than ever before along
this line, and this has led James Feeney,
president of Washington Union No. 4,
International Brotherhood OF Bookbind-
ers, to compile some statistics which
speak for themselves. MIR. l'eeney is one
of the best known and most highly re-
spected labor leaders in the national cap
ital, and his word is always accepted
with those who know him.
Many Records Taken.
Mr.. Feeney has taken the records Of
the various states for the purpose of find
ing out what laws have been passed and
by what party they were enacted. He has
taken ten laws, including those creating
labor bureaus, public employment agen-
cies, state boards of arbitration; also
eight-hour laws, child labor laws (mini-
mum age), child labor laws might work >,
women's labor laws. seats for shop girls
laws, anti-sweat shop laws and laws for
protection of unions.
In every one of these laws the labor
union has furnished the incentive for the
passage, it being the most vitality inter-
ested,
Majority Is Republican.
Mr.. Feeney shows that in the case Of
each law the great majority of the states
which have passed them are Republican.
This is true to a remarkable degree.
For instance, in the case of the eight
hour law. eighteen states have them. six
teen being Republican states and two.
Democratic states.
Another instance is in the case of laws,
protecting labor unions there being such
laws in fifteen states, fourteen OF which
are Republican.
