came to the conclusion that there is local pride
enough in the people of the neighborhood to
prompt them to do the best they can in the
matter.

EXIT FORAKER AND BAILEY

EXIT FORAKER AND BAILEY
Hearst of New York, founder
of the Independent party, pub
Usher of yellow journals and
scavenger of American politics
has been stirring up quite a
stink within the past week.
He has secured copies of let
tiers which show conclusively
that Senator Bailey of Texas
and Senator Foraker of Ohio,
have been in the employ of the
STANDARD oil company for the
purpose Of influencing leglsla-
ton in congress. These letters
speak Of tees paid, sometimes
In sums as great as ftty-thous-
and dollars.
Even though Foraker has been
fighting the President with con-
Stunning bitterness, and tried in
every way possible to defeat
the nomination of Judge Taft,
presumably at the request of
STANDARD oil, his political ruin,
for this disclosure can mean
nothing else, is a sad one. For
aker and Bailey are men of com
handing intellect. Each was
probably the ablest of his party
IN the senate. These two men
by reason of their abilities,
could be of great service to the
American people, but the lure
of the feshpots was too strong.
Foraker is at the end OF a long
and brilliant life. His first ser.
vice to his country was given in
the war of the rebellion. Since
that time he has oeen identified
with much OF his country's great
ness. His following in Ohio and
elsewhere was of the loyal and
endearing kind. But he is old
now, though the brilliancy of
his mentality and the courage
of his temperament remain as
they were in his younger days.
He cannot recuperate from the
disclosures made by Hearst.
His political career is ended.
Bailey is younger, he is a
fighter, a brilliant debator, a
constitutional lawyer of ac-
knowledged greatness, but the
youth and capabilities are insult
icient to square his conduct
with the right thinking people
of Texas. His term of office
has not expired, but it is wholly
improbable that he will be re.
turned to the senate.
There is a lesson in the exit
of these two mastery men from
the political stage. One in dis
grace at the end of a long pub
lie life, the other. having by his
own conduct, closed the door of
the future as be stood on the
threshold of u brilliant career.

What have our democratic

more for his corn or wheat?
Will hogs, cattle and horses sell

Fearless, seems to havereceived
his'n this week.
Hearst, the unspeakable, has
been showing a few things on
the governor that has made the
democratic national committee
situp and take notice. Haskell
said at first that he wasn't the
Haskell, that it was another man
who bore the same name, the
same initials, looked like him,
talked like hun, but was another
fellow. This sort of a denial
was nuts for Hearst and Haskell
has taken TO the woods. We
have neither the space or lncll-
nation to repeat all of the
Hearst charges, being content
to speak of the emore serious
ones.
Hearst produces books and
affidavits to show among other
things that Haskell is the paid
agent of Standard oil. That he
has secured a contribution of
$500, 900 from Standard oil to
the Bryan fund, and that he is
one of the men that offered
Frank S. Monnett of Ohio, a
bride of 100000 to cease his
prosecutions of Standard oil.
Haskell refuses to say where
the $500, 900 comes from beyond
saying that it was collected IN
some other campaign. He called
upon Mr.. Monnett to deny the
bribery story. Monnett, by the
way, has been making speeches
through Ohio and Indiana for
Bryan. The following is the
statement made by Monnett in
