CALLS II MOST
AUDACI0US ACT
Taft Discusses Gomper's
Political Attitude.

Buffalo, N. Y, Oct. -Sledgeham-
mer blows at the GomperZBryan Ia
Dor legislation plans were delivered
here by William H. Taft before two
immense audiences. Mr.. Taft gave
the names Of many labor leaders
high in the councils of the American
Federation of Labor who he said
were leaving Mr. Gompers.
The attempt of Mr.. Gompers," he
declared with great emphasis, ito de-
liver the labor vote of this country.
Is as audacious an act Of political eff
frontery as has ever occurred in the
history Of politics. It is most reas-
surfing to note that the men associat-
ed with Mr.. Gompers in me execu-
tive council Of the Federation of
Labor are falling away from him in
this effort OF his to make the FEEDER
alton of Labor a political factor.
"The men who decline to follow
him are John Mitchell, James Dun
can, first vice president of the Amer
lean Federation of Labor; Daniel
Keefe, the head of the longshore-
mems union; W. D. Ryan, secretary
and treasurer of the United Mine
Workers; A. L. Faulkner, president
of the Windowglass Workers of
America; Claude Worth, secretary
treasurer of the International Dredge
Workers; Charles Mccarthy, presi-
dent Tug Firemen and Linemen's
association; w. e. Fuller. elevator
employees; T. J. Dolan, international
secretary Steam Shovel and Dredge-
men, and many others high in the
councils Of labor organizations. 1t is
a struggle for political existence on
the part of Mr.. Gomrers, and he is
willing to resort to every extreme
method possible to secure success"
After asserting that the protective
system was decidedly the most i'm
portant consideration for the Ameri-
can workmen, Mr.. Taft added: Mr.
Gompers, however, has so committed
himself on one subject with refer
>ence to labor that he is wiling to
sacrifice every other consideration,
however important and material to
the welfare of the wage-earners. He
is willing to have a return of the
conditions that existed in 1896, so
eloquently described by him at that
time, If only he can secure what he
regards as proper legislation concern
ing injunctions. He proposes to abol-
ish injunctions in industrial disputes
where the Injunction is issued to pro-
tect the business of a person whose
business is injured by the lawless
acts of workingmen, and this by stat
ute. He also proposes to legalize the
secondary boycott, although many
trades unions have distinctly re-
nounced the use OF the secondary
boycott as an fundamentally in in
dustrial disputes which is un-republi-
can, un-American, and which is GER
tain to react upon the users as a
boomerang with disastrous effect"
After expressing the belief that the
legislation which Mr.. Gompers pro-
posed would be unconstitutional.

SMOOTH YOUNG BURGLAR.
Holds Up Woman and Secures Her
Diamond EARRINGS.

NEW YORK, Oct. 31.-vGaining
admission yesterday to the home of
Mrs. Ebon Adams, in New Rochelle,
under the pretext that he wished to
inspect it with view to subsequent
purchase, a sprucely dressed young
man compelled Mrs. Adams, at the
point of a revolver to remove her
diamond earrings and present them
to him.
The affability of the burglar and
the fact that he left without taking
with him other booty than the ear
rings, which were of comparatively
small value, is taken by the police
as indicating that he was novice
No trace of hfm as yet been found.

THE ELECTION.
One of the Boys.

We have read all the election fore
casts. We have carefully followed
all the straw votes. We find the
Democrats sure of the election Of
Bryan, the Republicans certain that
Taft will win. We see on one page of
the Cincinnati Enquirer that Ohio
and Indiana are going for Bryan.
On the next page. that both States
are sure for the Republican can
didate. And in each case, the best
of reasons are given.
We.have about decided that no one
knows anything about it and that we
will all have to wait until the special
edition of The News is printed on
Wednesday morning to know.
There is very little question in our
mind but that Bryan has made ire
mendous gains over the Democratic
vote Of 1904. He will poll a far lar
ger proportion of the labor vote than
any Democratic candidate of recent
years has done. The New York Her.
aid, which is noted for the accuracy
of its forecasts, says that the signs
look like Taft's election; but that if
there is a landslide among the work
ingmen, Bryan will win.
The Republicans are counting on
the great farmers vote through the
North and West. The farmers have
usually been Republican. They are
prosperous They have felt the late
panic less than any other class in the
community. Therefore, it is reason
ed, they will vote for Taft in in
creasing numbers and that will mean
his election.
Bryan started in this campaign
with great handicap. Every North
ern State was Republican. In Min
nesota, Johnson, a Democrat, was
Governor, but the State was strongly
Republican. So In Oregon and
Rhode Island, while the Governors
were Democrats, all the rest of the
State officials were Republicans.
There has been less excitement this
year than in any election within our
memory. 1t has been impossible for
either party to work up much en-
thusiasm. And it is we'll for the
country that this should be so. The
selection Of a President is a serious
matter and should be decidedly, SER
iously and calmly. We believe that
the great silent vote of the country,
Z the vote that is not bound to either
party: is going to decide. The 1nde-
The Winchester news. [volume] (Winchester, Ky.) 1908-19??, 1908-10-31

pendent vote is growing every year.
We no longer hear so much of the
boast, ~ have always voted the
straight ticket, Inever scratch my
ballot" And it is better for each of
the great parties that this is so. 1t
goes to make them more careful in
their policies and in their selection
of candidates.

OFFERED PRESIDENCY.

CHICAGO, Oct. 31.-A dispatch

$80,360 Realized.

The dispersal sale OF the famous
stock required four DAYS during
which four hundred and fifty-nine
head were sold for a total of $780,
800, an average of $175. Under the
circumstances this must be consider
ed a most excellent result. It far
surpasses the expectations of Col.
Young and is full twenty thousand
dollars beyond the prediction made
by the most sanguine before the sale
had begun. 1t is a source, moreover,
of qualification to all interested in
the future of the thoroughbred horse
and to all who have at heart the
welfare of an industry in which
many millions of dollars are invested
in this imemdiate section.

Recipe F or Rheumatism
Directions To Prepare Simple, Yet
Remarkable Home Mixture.

directions Q Prepare simple, Yet
Remarkable Home Mixture.
There is so much Rheumatism here
in our neighborhood now that the fol-
lowing advice by an eminent authority
who writes for readers OF a large East
ern daily paper, will be highly apprec-
lated by those who suffer:
Get from any good pharmacy one
half ounce Fluid Extracts Dandelion,
one ounce Compound Kargon, three
ounces of Compound Syrup Sarsapa-
rilla. Shake these we'll in a bottle and
take in teaspoOnful doses after each
meal and at bedtime; also drink plen-
ty of good water.
1t is claimed that there are few VIC
Tins of this dread and torturous dis.
ease who will fail to find ready relief
in this simple homemade mixture
and in most cases a permanent cure
is the result.
This simple recipe is said to streng-
then and cleanse the eliminative tissue
OF the Kidneys, so that they can filter
strain from the blood and system the
poisons, acids and waste matter, which
cause not only Rheumatism, bu3
numerous other diseases. Every man
or woman here who feels that their
kidneys are not healthy and active. or
who suffers from any urinary trouble
whatever, should not hesitate to make
up this mixture as it is certain to do
much good, and may save you from
much misery and suffering after while.
Our home druggists say they will
either supply the ingredients or mix
the prescription ready to take if our
readers ask them.
