With Increased number of fail
ures and increased volume of loss
from such failures during this
year President Roosevelt had the
grewsome hurdlhood to say ia one
OF his recent edicts commandir q
the people to vote for his heir
apparent, that If Bryan ia elected
"we will have panic"
What does Roosevelt call the
kind of "prosperity" he has given
the country the past year2 Every
branch of the government has
been under his control, and his
"heir apparent" is candidate 10

Bryan's election could not cause
a panic. We have panic now,

The following letter was written
by boy to friend of his:
Logan, Ohio, Oct. l, 1908.
Friend John
Dear Sir:
/ did not get to call you Tues
day night and tell you all the do
ings and may not get to see you
till | forget something, so l will
write line or two to you.
Didn't our old Irishman, Mr..
Rutledge acquit himself fine
though Monday night9 He was
certainly correct.
Well sir, John, you just ought
to have been up at dry headquart-
ers Tuesday evening as the reports
from the different precincts came
in. The first township heard
from was Falls which went dry.
The number "23" sounded peculiar
tn all. 1893" is q popular number
among the French people you
know. Everybody in the room
cheered, and it was hard to keep
them quiet enough so Mr.. Stone
could hear over the telephone.
The townships kept coming in
"dry" for half an hour or so, and
there WAS always burst of cheers
at each return.
When the news came that
Marion Township had gone wet
by "22" there were no cheers or
anything said. Soon the news
came that Nslsonville had gone
dry by l3. You certainly ought
to have been there In that room.
People were talking and following
SO much that newspaper reporters
would have to call them down
every once in awhile.
Ugh Gee! 1t was certainly
fun when u telephone ring come
in, everybody would be anxious to
know what news was coming.
Rev. Matthias said that when they
were sure that Hccking was dry"
the church bells should ring
simultaneously. l went out ON
the street while the bells were
ringing and II was certainly ex-
4uisite music.
1t will be remembered that the
eity OF Jacksonville went dry the
ssme majority that the city OF
Athens did twenty months ago.
