campaign.

Hope for sweeping Democratic
victory in Ohio this year has been
more buOyant than ever at state
Democratic headquarters since the
large, enthusiastic and successful
meeting of Democratic editors held
in response to call by Chairman
w. l.. Finley, of the State Demo-
cratic executive Committee. From
every section of the state came
words of encouragement and as.
surances of support for the state
and national tickets, which signify
that the voters of Ohio are ready
for change at Washington and
at Columbus.
Every editor had the same kind
of story to tell in voicing the
prevailing sentiment of the com
munity. The people do not relish
the plan of succession tn office
which President Roosevelt has or
dained and which he forced upon
the Chicago convention. Dictat-
ing the nomination of his choice
for successor is too much like the
succession of a prince of royal
blood made heir apparent by the
accident of birth instead Of the
crushing power of a steam roller.
Such plan of succession is be.
ing attempted by President Diaz
of Mexico, who has designated
Vice President Ramon Corral for
his heir apparent, and Senator
Foraker, In his celebrated Memor-
ial Day speech at Steubenyille a
year ago had good deal to say
against "the Mexicanization of the
United States" Such a plan is
exactly like the election OF King
Haakon VII in 1905; the people
were told to elect this son of the
King OF Denmark for their king or
remain the subjects OF King Oscar

Mining Machines.

What is believed to be new
record for loading and mining coal
in the bitumlnous fields of the Un-
tied States has been established
by the Clinchfield Coal corpora
ton, with which a number of peo-
pie known in Athens are associat-
ed in executive capacities.
At one of the operations in the
Dante group of mines 1886 tons
of coal were mined and loaded dur
ing 10 working hours, last Tues
day. This coal filled So gondola
cars and travelled an incline 600
feet in length, and was handled
over one tipple. Each of the mine
cars used in loading carried three
tons and there were two of these
cars to the cable, or two were let
down the incline at the same time;
and accordingly about $50 trips
were made by the mine cars over
this 600 feet ascent to the tipple-
house in 10 hours.
1t was not the intention to make
any special effort in the direction
of eclipsing the record until some
hours after work began, when it
was seen that up to that time all
Dante mine records had been
broken and under the direction
of the manager of the mines,
Thomas f.. Roam. formerly with
the Sunday Creek company, an ex-
ira exertion was made to beat all
records, and it is believed that
this was done.

That NIGHTMARE, "Tariff Pro.
lection" has been imposed upon the
American people by sea of
political charlatans working under
the guise Of Republicanism for
years. Protectionism has had a
fair trial and has at last broken
it's own weight. The Republican
party that became possessed by
this devil of greed has gone so far
as to declare that "pr 'tection pro-
duced prosperity" ana yet the
words were hardly out of it's
mouth before tariff protection was
helping to produce the causes that
eliminated in pane from which
the country is still suffering.
There ia no true principle or
science in protection, hut it stands
for that erroneous Republican
doctrine that the few shall profit
at the expense of the many.
Under proteetionism the manu-
featuring class is subsidized at
the expense of other classes, and
very naturally begot monopolies
which We call Trusts. Foreign
competition is warded off by high
import duties, so that instead of
the government collecting all the
tariff taxes, most of the tariff taxes
are collected by the trusts, for
the less imports there are the
more the trusts are able to collect
by increasing the price of their
