WHERE SHERMAN STANDS.

Conditions of Labor.

Approves Legislation to Improve the
Conditions Of Labor.
(From Shermans Speech of Accept
ance.)
The Republican party believes In the
equality of all men before the law !;
believes in granting labor's every re-
quest that does not seek to accord
rights to one man denied to another.
Fai--minded labor asks no more, no
less, and approves the record of the
Republican party because of that par
tvs acts.
] have helped to make my party's
record in the enactment Of the Eight
Hour law, the Employers Liability
act, the statutes to minimize the haz-
ard Of railroad employees, the Child
Labor law for the District of Columbia
and other enactments designed especial
" to improve the conditions of labor
I cannot hope to better state my posi-
ton on injunctions than by a specific
endorsement Of Mr.. Taft's Cincinnati
declaration on that subject. That en-
dersement ] make.

THE ISSUE AND PARTY RECORD.
Will the People Trust Experiment.
aIists and Theorists

(From Sherman's Speech OF Accept
ance.)
The overshadowing issue Of the CAM
paign really is: Shall the administra-
ton of President Roosevelt be APP
proved, shat! party of demonstrated
eapacity in~ administrative affairs be
continued in power, shall the reins of
government be placed in experienced
hands, or do the people prefer to trust
their destinies to an aggregation Of
experimental indictments and theor-
lists, whose only claim to a history is
q party name they pilfered?
With a record of four decades of
wise legislation two score years Of
faithful administration offering its
fulfilled pledges as a guaranty of its
promises for the future, the Republi-
can party appeals to the people and,
with full confidence in their wisdom
and patriotism, awaits the rendition of
the November verdict.

There was an old fellow who
earned a living by doing odd jobs
about suburban gardens. A woman
had employed him to roll her lawn
and told the servant to give him his
dinner. The dinner consisted of

asked, half in wonder and half in

"Shall I do some more?"
"Aye, ave." was the cool reply;

On ACCOUNT of lack of seating
capacity in the Pioneer School
building several children between
the ages of four and five years
have been sent home and others
of the beginners and first grade
are now only going the half day
session. At a meeting of the
school board held Saturday this
action was decided upon but sew
eral of the parents of these child
rem think that it is an injustice
and that their children should be
entitled to go to school the same
as they have in the past. The
school board is this year limited
with funds with which to run the
schools and this is about the
only way they see to get along
without hiring another teacher
and opening up another room.
We have always thought that the
age of six or seven years was
time enough to start children
going to school and we think
that the action of the school board
in refusing these little tots adj
admission is all right. Others
may think different but the
school room is no place for mere
babies.

The city officials have during
the past week had to force a
number of property holders
along Bayfield, street to put in
new walks in the place of the old
ones which were torn up last
year. and the work is now being
done. In a number of places
the people have asked that the
city establish the grade, put in
the curb and make the fills where
necessary, and this has all been
done for some time, but still the
walks have not gone down and
the officers have had to resort
to putting in the walks for them.
The amount with interest being
charged up to the property hold.
ers. There are lot of walks on
lower Bay field street that are in
very poor condition and the soon.
er that they are repaced the bet
ter it will be for all concerned.
In some cases the putting in of
new walks is quite a burden to
the taxpayers but then the city
may be saved a lot of damage
suits which otherwise might
come up if the walks are left in
Ihelr present condition.

Platform Us. Speaker.

From the Washington Post, Ind.
The Democ tatic Platform de-
mands such an enlargement of
the powers Of the interstate com
merce mission as will enable
it to compel railroads t. perform
ali tl'eir dut'os as common car
riers and ascertain The physical
valuation Of railroads. This
would create scores of offices,
and would cost the government
an enormous sum of money.
The platform pledges the party
to enact law creating depart
ment of labor, represented separ-
ately in the Presidents cabinet.
This would mean a new expense
of several millions annually.
The platform declares for "an
adequate navy" which means the
maintenance Of the nauy at its
present size, at least, and this
calls for an expenditure three
times as lar &c as the naval bud
get of ten years ago:
The platform "favors a gener-
pension policy"
The platform advocates "uhe
organization of all existing
national public agencies into a
national bureau of public health,
with power "over sanitary con-
ditions connected with factories
mines, mines, child labor, and
other such Subjects" which
would acquire an expenditure
of millions.
The platform favors "the es-
adjustment Of district agricul-
tural experiment stations and
secondary agriceltual and ME.
chanical colleges in the several
states" 1t the govern ment
should erect and maintain col
leges in every state, it would
have to spend MANY millions an.
nually.
The platform favors a '.liberal
and comprehensive plan for i'm
proving every water course in
the Union which is justified by
the needs of commerce." includ-
ing the connection Of the great
lakes with the gulf, "and the
navigable rivers with each other
and the rivers, bays, and sounds
of our coasts with each other by
artificial canals. and we
favor the creation of fund
ample for continuous work. !"
The possibilities of expenditure
under such a plan are limitless'
1.-THE platform favors federal
aid to state and local aid for
authorities in the construction
and maintance of postroads. :"
If the government should enter
upon road building, it would have
to spend many millions in order
to satisfy the state and local
authorities.
The platform pledges the party
to the enactment of bank de-
posit guaranty law applying to
all national banks and avail
able to all state banking institu-
tions wishing to use it," The
inspection and control of nation
al and state banks which would
be required to proven to prevent
abuse OF the guaranty law would
call for large additional corps
of government officers at great
expense.
Here are propositions for the
federal control of the public
health, schools, roads and banks,
with an expenditure of unknown
millions annually.
Yet Mr.. Bryan is making
speeches against naturalization"
and extravaganza!
