Democracy VS.. PIutocracy

To the Editor of the World:
A vote for Bryan is a vote for the
republic; a vote for any other candi-
date is cast directly or indirectly for
the plutocracy founded and maintain
ed by the republican party at the ex-
pense of the people.

l was always forced to take part in
every parade. In 1904 l carried a
full dinner pail" filled with excel

pail We had the claws of chickens

learning that in this state alone over
four hundred thousand people are I'M

prayer of myself and wife.

How Taft Might Score

To the Editor of the World:
If Mr.. Taft wants to make a great
hit why does he not promise to the
hundreds of thousands out of employ
ment in New York and other cities
a full dinner pail? Where is the full
dinner pail this year? Alas! it's emp

A Caldwell Mans Dream
To the Editor of the World:
For the last twenty years, two or
three months before election, l have
dreamed which way the election has
gone, except my last dream, which,
of course, has not had time to mater
ialize. The dreams came out o. K.
A few nights ago | dreamed that it
was election night, and with some
friends l went over to the World
building to watch the returns. New
York City polled a very heavy vote, a
lighter vote came from up the state
than was expected, and Bryan re-
ceived $4,000 majority. New Jersey
gave Taft $4,000 majority, but Indiana
went 1000 for Bryan, and the latter
was elected.

To the Editor of the World:
1t seems strange that a man high
in the councils of the trusts and a
director in so many corporations as
Mr.. Sherman is would touch the key
of President RoOsevelt's policy in re-
gard to trusts in his song of accept
ance, "the overshadowing of the
Roosevelt policy"
l predict Mr.. Sherman will not cut
as wide a swath through the south as
General Sherman did in 1864. l have
been voting republican for some time,
but will vote for Bryan and Kern, as
think the White House is large
enough for two families.

One Dscordant Note
To the Editor of the World:
l labor for my daily bread. have
nothing to sell but my labor About
rs per cent. of the citizens are in the
same boat We own about IL per
cent. of the entire country's wealth.
We live by selling our labor power.
In the minority boat are the buyers
of labor. This Is per cent. owns the
other IS 1-2 per cent. of the country's
wealth They live by rent, interest
and profits. Their means of life is
procured by buying labor power. They
buy it as cheaply as they can.
Taft says he is for both. He was
nominated by those in the minority
boat, so where does he stand? He
confessed that only God knows
what to do when We of the majority
are out Of work.
Bryan says he is for both. He was
nominated by himself out of the mi
nority. He cannot honestly represent
both the buyer and the seller of la
Dor.
Debs is compelled by the member
ship of the socialist party. which is
composed entirely of wage laborers,
to be the candidate for only those
who sell their labor. He is not only
for those of the majority, but is of
them. He cannot represent those of
the minority boat. He does not tell
the minority that he, too, represents
them.
No president can represent two Op-
posing interests. Either they are for
or against me.
| will vote for Debs because he is
only for me and mine. If you can give
a better reason I'm listening.

think that the working man, from
the mechanic down to the most hum
bic laborer, who is stupid enough to
vote for anybody but Bryan deserves
what he has been getting lately.
Give Bryan chance to prove his
worth, although it may not be recog-
nized, like Grover Cleveland's, until
after his death. | am sure Bryan is
the man of the hour.

Lincoln and Bryan

To the Editor of the World:
Four years ago l voted for Roose-
welt, but today Bryan is the man who
stands for the rights of all the peo-
pie. He has finally risen to the
heights of the true and new demOcra-
cy and is the champion of the old.
The poor man has not had friend in
the White House since Lincoln died !;
today be looks to Bryan.
'"Tis many a day since Lincoln died,
And angry seas still lash the shore
But now, today, hope, angel-eyed,
Sits down beside the poor mans
door;
Today springs promise in the west,
Springs like a flower from prairie
sod;
Emblem of truth on his broad breast
On his broad brow the sign of God y
