X Good Suggestion.

The following proposition sng-
gested by Prof. w. w. Evans,
candidate for superintendent of
Schools, we think is good one,
and should be adopted. He has
expressed willingness TO sign
and enter into an agreement to
observe the following pledge.
"We the undersigned candi-
dates for the various offices to be
voted for at the primary election
to be held Jan. 5, 1909, hereby
signify our willingness to enter
into an agreement and take oath
that we will not use money, whis-
ky or equivalent, or allow it to
be used for us by another, for
purchasing votes in the primary
election.
This pledge to become binding
and in full force and effect when
duly by all the candidates for
the various offices have signed

the conservative does not sit well upon
the born Crusader. Mr. Bryan has put
forth tactful. smoothly phrased bun
die of generallties, and he has done so
at the very moment when the mental
appetite of the whole people is sharp
ened for strong meat and not wind
pudding.
With a score OF honestly disputed
and important questions open. he
chooses deliberately to select as the
chief issue Of the campaign query 10

DIAMONDS
In Knox County by the
BuShCI. Good Times
Ahead for Col. s. p. Fisher,
of Little RiChldnd Creek.

Col. S. z. Fisher, of Little
Richland Greek, about three and
one-half miles from town, was
here a day or two ago and in
forms us that while walking out
on his farm he found a rock that
weighs one pound an ten ounces
that,js chuck full Of diamonds of
the finest water.
1t is truly hoped that the Col.
is right in his good fiud, and
and that he has more in store,
that old Knox county is as
full of those precious gems as she
is of Blue Gem, the best coal to
be found on the market.
The Colonel, however, would
not tell us just where he located
his lucky find, but says when the
good things come his wayne will
remember us "po" folks.

Tafts Relation.

To dispose of questions which should
not be asked as speedily as possible let
us say that Mr.. Taft is not a Romau
Catholic. He is a member Of the Uni
tartan church That was the church OF
his parents. and he has never separat
ed himself from il. His wife, however,
Is an Episcopalian. and he worships
more often beside her In her church.
These are the facts, which are utter
ly and absolutely unimportant The
matter of n mans religion has no right
ful place I'm consideration of his fitness
for the presidency. The constitution
of the nation. ordained and established
"to secure the blessings of liberty TO
ourselves and our posterity," expressly
places the very suggestion of such
thought outside the pale of patriotism.
No words can be clearer than these
from our country's fundamental law,
mo religious test ever shall be re-
Quired as a qualification to any office
or public trust under the United
States"
The numerous queries about Mr.
Taft's religious belief show simply the
extent to which his enemies have gone
to rouse some prejudice against him
Since there was no spot upon his whole
clean record OF private conduct and
public service to which they could
point TO Taft's detrlment they display
ed their willingness 10 descend to any
depth OF petty, cowardly, contemplate
attack that might do him harm.-Phila'

Elective Franchise Plank.

Believing that the extension of the
elective franchise TO a race inferior In
intelligence and without preparation
for the wise and prudent exercise of a
privilege so vital to the maintenance
of good government was mistake II
not crime committed by the Repub.
lican party during the reign of passion
and prejudice following the civil war
for political ends and purposes. we de.
clare that the Democratic party Is in
favor Of so amending the constitution
as to prese' We the purity of the ballot
and the electorate of the state from the
evil results from comforting such pow
er and privilege upon those who are
unified to appreciate its importance,
as 1t affects the stability and preserva-
tlon of good government.

FARMERS INSTITUTE.

The State Department of Ag-
ricultuaal and the Knox c. unity
Farmers Club held a two days
session of a Farmers Institute
here Tuesday and Wednesday,
and a small attendance of far
mers were present.
Hon. w. L. Kane and Hon. L.
NJ. Johnson, representing the
State Department, were here
and delivered some very inter
esting lectures to those present.
Owing to the annual Confer
ence being IN session at the same
time it kept some away who
would otherwise have attended
the Institute.

A SIGNIFICANT CONTRAST

For nearly fifty years under
Repu ublican adm stration aud leg
islation, the United States has
enjoyed the benefits of proteC-
tive tariff, except during the
period from 1894 to 1897, when
the Free Trade Wilson-Gorman
law was in operation. During
the same period, in fact since
1916, Great Britain has had a
free trade tariff. During these
wears home market has been
built up in the United States
with sufficient purchasing power
to consume 96 per cent and more
of our manufactures and farm
products. In the same time
Great Britain has striven TO be-
come the workshop of the world,
and has succeeded in becoming
ing the dumping ground for the
products of other nations.
Let us see what has been the
result of these two policies on
the railroads of these two cOun-
tries, as aft fected by the wages of
the employees and the freight
rates. The average wages paid
to the railroad employees in Great
Britain are 1903 per year, while
the freight rate in Great Britain
is 1924 per mile. AS compared
with this, the average wages of
the railroad employees of the Uni
ted States are $642 per yer year,
while the freight rate is 75c per
per ton per nile. In Great
Britain fireman are paid $500
per year in the United States,
$765. In Great Britain conduc-
tors are paid $3l5 per year; in
the United States, $1.155 per
year, or more than four times as
much.
| In Great Britain engine drivers
are paid $41S per year, while in
I the United States they are paid
81, ,359 per year. In the United
States, section men are paid
1923 per year which is sos more
than conductors are paid in Great
/ Britain and SOB more than loco
motive firemen are paid III that
country.
From Manchester to London
the distance is 237 miles and the
rate per ton is $4.2l, or 81 .S6 per
mile. In the United States the
distance from New York to st.
Louis is ,066 miles and the rate
per ton is "a, or 3S cents per
mile. In Great Britain 81 pays
for moving one ton of freight As
miles; in the United States, 81
pays for moving one ton OF
freight 1872 miles. During 1907
the freight revenue of the Uni
ted was 81 1926, 900, 900. If the
United States for that period
had paid the English rate fol
freight, the cost would have
been four billion more than this
or, to be more exact, $5,713, ,000,'
900.
Shall we continue to operate
farms and factories under pro
tective tariff or shall we let the
bars down and resort to the fis
cal policy of Great Britain.
