WAITING FOR The NEXT PROPHECY

The season of prophecy" for 1908 is
tardy, Candidate Bryan having not yet
announced in full review the fearful
calamities that are to befall the nation
in tie event of his failure to be eerted
and his policies approved by the people,
as he did in 1892 to 1906 inclusive.
While the prediction of great and
overwhelming disasters to all people is
sure to come from the prophet, citizens
will await them without fear and with
out anxiety. For fourteen years the
people of the state and nation have list
ened to the warnings" and the ''proph-
ecies" of Candidate Bryan only to see
them, in every case, disproven and dis
credited by the march of events.
The people will await the prophecies
of 1908 calmly and serenely; enjoy the
bountiful prosperity SO abut dant in this
country. and with the recollection Of

stroyed and schools closed by the gold

proposed new Baptist church at Loeb

by the pastor Of the church, Rev. C. w.
Hudson. In the corner stone of the
edliice was placed box containing a
short history of the church, list of the
names OF every person who contributed
anything toward the erection Of the
church, list of the members of the
church, a copy Of THE REPUBLICAN and
a copy of the by-laws of the Masonic

the names Of the architect of the build

Mckinley, who was elected in that year,
a Republican tariff-the Dingley meas
ure, which isstill operative-was passed.
Not only was the tariff remodeled in
conformity to the Republican policy of
protection to home labor and home in
dustries, but the monetary system of
the country was braced and steadied by
the adoption of tn, gold standard.
As result of the financial and indus
trial policies inaugurated during the
first administration of President McKin-
ley the corntry has enjoyed decade of
unparalleled prosperity. Farm prices
have grown better steadily, and during
this present year they range from 40 to
100 per cent, better than they were in
1896. Last year and this year the In
diana farmers, and those of MARYLAND
also, sold their wheat and corn at lust
about double the average prices OBJ
tanned in 1896. Last year there was a
financial panic, brought on by Wall
Street gambling, which resulted in
tie mporary industrial Decentralization.
Already the business of the country is
getting back to the! normal, however.
Good times will be quickly restored if
Mr.. Taft is elected next week. The
election of Mr.. Bryan would mean not
only mortgaged mules, but good deal
Of other mortgaged property before his
official term will have expired.

THAT MORTGAGED MULE.

During Mr.. Taft's speechmaking tour
through Indiana last week, at a point
where large number of farmers We're
gathered to greet and to listen to him,
a farmer penciled and passed mp to him
a note, which read as follows:
Twelve years ago | drove mort
gagged mule to this city to hear Mr..
Bryan speak. Today | came in my own
automobile to hear you, Can you guess
who | am going to vote for?'
The suggestiveness of that farmer s
noteiS plain enough to land-tillers every
where, and its meaning will be clear to
anyone who will take the trouble to look
up the history of the farming industries
during the four years that followed the
adoption of the Democratic tariff-the
Wilson-Gorman bill - which became
operative in 1894. In September of that
year wheat dropped to fifty cents per
bushel and when Mr.. Bryan was stump
ing Indiana in 1896, the year the farmer
who wrote the note to Mr.. Taft went to
hear him on the mortgaged mule, the
cereal was selling in the West around
fifty-five cents per bushel Corn in
those years of depression dropped below
thirty cents per bushel 1t was not the
farming industries alone, but manufac-
turing, trade and all forms of business
were Frustrated: labor was unemployed
to an extent that was calamitous.
Mr.. Bryan, who was that year for
the first time running as the presidential
candidate of his party, was preaching to
the farmers and everybody else who
came within the range of his voice the
doctrine of the unlimited coinage of sill
yer at the l6-to-l ratio. AS to the
tariff, he was then free-tr trader. as he
perhaps is now. His universal panacea
for hard times was cheap money; the
situation for the farmers and for labor,
he assured those who listened to him,
would grow a great deal worse if the
gold standard should be adopted and
business be regulated according to the
single yellow metal standard.
Bryan was defeated in 1896, and dur

THE INDEPENDENCE %
OF THE JOURNAL
A Shot at that Paper and a Rap at
Edward, If You Please"

To the Editor of The Republican:
1t has been said that when Charles A.
Dana, the great editor, was asked what
is the first essential in publishing a
newspaper, he replied: Raise Cain
and sell papers" This is about as true
as any general definition Of the govern
ing principle in newspaper office as
you will likely get.
Now the Garrett journal may
have Institutions which would lie d
him in successfully raising Cain" but
through bad Interpretation of the modus
operandi, it has failed, signally failed,
in raising anything but little wonder
and surprise. The wonder is that it
hObnobs eleven months Of the year with
Republicans, exchanging potatoes,
pumpkins, and perhaps parsnips, an
damns them with faint praise, to say
the least, the balance of the year. The
surprise is, that after affiliating with
the Republicans until just before cleo
ton time, it takes up the Democratic
cause and opens it's columns to every
whimpering gust of Democratic winds
that winds around in that direction. 1t
claims to be independent. Ell? 1t may
be dependent, but independence and
party regularity in aiding and abetting
the Democrats at the only season in
which Republicans seek recognition, do
not work on the same job
With absolute Democratic regularity
the Garrett Journal swings it's entire
influence 20 the cause of Democracy
when the campaign is on, and then
no Republican slides down It's cellar
door until away after election, when by
some means they return again to its
Office and bring in the fruits of the
farm
1t is certainly beyond ones magma
ton how this so-called independence is
perpetuated. Why would Republicans
subscribe to or patronize paper of
that vacillating policy and purpose,
which with party regularity disclaims
its friends interested at election time

is, that Mr.. Bender went to school up

that he had developed much mental
