County Chairman F. Richard Schaaf
has put the entire preparation for the

of the Young Mems Republican club
and they will be responsible for the
success of the big celebration.

that a place will be served in the pa

of his club who will march.
In addition to the republicans who
will march as members of the vari-
Gus clubs it is expected that every
good republican in the city or in the
county. for that matter. will come out
and help to make a demonstration for
Mr.. Watson.
Outlook Is Bright.
County Chairman F. Richard Schaaf
informed the members of the Young
Mems Republican club that at no time
during the campaign have things
looked better for the party.
The feeling has become general in
this industrial community that the
election of Bryan would be a calamity.
The tariff on steel would be removed
and the whole iron and steel industry
of the country would be paralyzed
for years to come. That is the reason
why a steel producing section of the
country is always republican.
The heads of the manufacturing con-
Germs, scores of business men and
hundreds of property owners, regard
less of their political Affiliations are
demadding Bryans political head and
are equally insistent In desiring Taft s
election.
Bryan Not Safe.
These men are expected to use their
influence with the rank and file to see
that they vote right. 1t will not be a
pens to be the republican candidate,
but because he is opposed to an un-
safe man like Bryan and because he
alone will guarantee that the tariff
will be revised by its friends.
Mr.. Schaafs report had the effect
of arousing the enthusiasm of every
member of the Young Mems Republic
an club and the organization is now
working with vim. Victory for the
the war cry.
