TAFT ON THE FIRING LINE

The management Of the republican
national committee displayed rare
good judgment in sending Mr.. Taft on
a speaking tour of the country. The
American people know Mr.. Taft's offi-
cial record. They know he made an
ideal Judge on the bench; that he did
wonders in bringing order out chaos
10 the Philippines, in Porto Rico and
Panama; that he has established u
high standard OF executive efficiency
as secretary of war. Now they are
getting = glimpse OF the human aide
Of the man, the Taft who can meet all
kinds Of audiences, in all sections Of
the country and talk face to face with
the people on the issues that vitality
concern them.
Mr.. Taft's campaign has partaken of
the nature OF an ovation from start to
the present time. Through Wisconsin,
Iowa, the Dakotas, in Illinois he has
talked to unnumbered thousands OF
voters, frankly stating his position
on the labor question, tariff, postal
savings, bank guaranty and oil the
questions in which thepublic has con-
Germ. He has evaded nothing side
stepped no issue nor sought to smooth
over any Troublesome proposition by
honeyed or glittering generalities. He
has made and 10 making q manly cam
paign OF the kind that convinses. II
any doubt existed anywhere rs to Mr..
Taft's attitude on any OF tho public
questions or his ability to intelligent
ly cope with them that doubt has been
removed. In him the republicans have
an ideal candidate, because he is an
ideal American--Omaha Bee.

NO HARM TO THE PARTY

When Major Lacey accepted his Sc
lection as candidate for the United
States Senate he said that above all
things "Let no harm come to the Re-
publican party" This should be the
motto of every candidate, and every
leader, and every voter who afiliates
with that party. Whom the thundsrs
of war rumblsd over the continent
Young Lacey said by his action LET
no harm come to the Union, and went
to the front to fight for its preserva-
ton. Every true republican will feel
thrill of patriotic fervor as these
words fall upon his ear. 1t is the hon.
est plea of an earnest republican for
that party harmony which means more
than meresmpty words and which
will exist as long as the party has q
name and being.
Let no harm come to the Republi-
can party" This is not bid for votes
for any ons candidate, but it is q pat
rio,ic appeal for votes for every can
didats on the republican ticket from
President Of the United States down
to constable. 1t 10 the clarion cry for
united political action. the danger
note that urges the party to have done
with divisivs strife. Let every repub-
lican adopt this ~ his motto in the
coming campaign and the party will
obtain such victory as shall forever
close the mouths of over-confdent
democrats who even now are saying
that Iowa is becoming doubtful
state.

can party

COL. BRYAN ON PENSIONS
Read What he Said When a Member OF
Congress in 1892

The Daily Capital calls attention to
what Col. William jennings Bryan
said in the Congress Of the United
States, November Is, 1892. At that
time Colonel Bryan was member OF
the house from Nebraska, Veterans
OF the civil war will be amazed to read
this utterance from the lips of Colonel
Bryan relative to union soldier and
his pension. Colonel Bryan said;
The next congress will have to
wrestle with one deficiency OF $50, 600, 900.
This 10 on account of pensions, The
appropriation for the next year must
be not less than $3.50, 900, 900. II is
therefore easy Arithm etic TO perceive
that the appropriation that congress
must make for pensions ut the next
session must not be less than slS6, 000-
900. This tremendous sum would of
itself be enough 10 run reasonable
government" He continued a. follows
One would rot complain II II were an
hOsorabls debt, bnt q large proportion
Of II 10 net q debt, bscasse II was never
earned by any act Of patriotism or heroic
service. The government 10 held up and
despolled Of no mean portion Of this,

how many more years II will take 10 ex.
haust the generations which feels itself
injured by war. II Is safe TO say that
never did a renerstlon display such

WHAT THEY SAW.

Verse 5. lie saw the linen clothes
lying. Peter seeth the linen clothes
lying. 8. That other disciple saw
and believed.
They apparently saw something
significant that forced them to be-
liev what they had nevrr expected.
What did they see. The way the
linen clothes were lying. Obviously
these clothes II. ". were there re-
naming in shape OF the human
body they had enclosed and such
as no skill of mai could ever have
arranged them. Jesus like the case
of the grub of the dragon fly when
the insect has flown. No clumsy
hand of the Roman soldier or mock
ling Pharisee could have taken away
the body and left the clothing thus
Take your handkerchief and wrap
a hand and see if you can remove
the hand and lcaveH its linen form,
How easy, could you but dissolve
the hand. 1t was in this way Jesus
left his earthly robes. In the same
manner, perhaps, we shall have
ours on that great day of | Thess.,

OF the seed as Paul did l Cor 10:

YOUR NAME.

Verse lG Jesus saith unto her
"Mary."
Had not forgotten her on the
other side Of the grave. Old affec.
tions remain. Luke 16t272S. Death
makes no break. Nothing blotted
up by death. His dear voice and
the way hp said 1t. Wouldn't you
know any loved one by the way
your name was spoken Nobody
in the whole world can say "Will"
like mother says It, and would
know her anywhere with that name
on her lips. Jesus knows you
white sheep or black sheep, and
calls you by name. Do you answer
HRahobni'' i'm the accents of love
or do you "cut him dead" as the
girls say. When Jesus comes to
earth again every one will recognize
him. VIII he call your name as a
shepherd calls his sheep. John 1913

Washington. d. c. Especially -
Schedules in the new tariff bill will
provide maximum and minimum
rates OF duty. That was the sub
stance. OF a statement made by Chair
man Payne at the session OF the
Ways and Means Committee.
Judge Taft has also advised that
the new bill take that form, instead
OF having fixed rates of duty as has
been the rule in tariff laws OF the
past. With maximum and minimum
rates the United States will be in a
position to make concessions TO a
foreign nation that favor this country

Most of the session was occupied
by H. E. Miles. of Racine, Wis, sec
retary OF the National Manufacturers
Association in a denunciation of the
Dingley law as the creator and sup
porter OF trusts. He said, however,
that he did not speak for the associa-
tion.
Miles declared that the law "in-
finitely wronged" the consumer, was,
in some respects, a blow in the face
of labor. injured the independent,
'non-trustified" manufacturer and
gave the farmer a stone labeled
bread. He charged that the bill
legislated $25, 100000 annually from
the pockets of the people into the
treasury of the Standard Oil Com
pany and gave the Steel Trust con-
troll of the market in this country,
with the result that through exOr-
bitant prices it was driving independ-
cnt manufacturers to the wall.

facts at issue between Mr.. Miles and

protectionist of the Committee. al

been pounding along for five or six
hours in a continuous assault on the
steel schedules he was doing so with
less resistance.
