Gath, and was never more surprised
since the Almighty permitted the glor-
ions sunshine of reason 10 penetrate
into my brains, 10 learn what deceiv-

found after reading the Dallas
News" LIST, that Taft was nominated
for President of the United States, af-
ter which came eulogy on President
Roosevelt that would have passed re.
specially for Caesar or Alexander the
Great, and after declaring that Taft
was the one, they proceeded to business
by stating a great many things that
they believed, nay, knew, ought to be
done for the welfare and prosperity of
Glorious America-and had neglected
it for II years but solemnly promised
the people of the United States that If
they would vote for them, both black
and white, rich and poor, bound and

time | read on little further down
the column and found that the demo-
Gratis were in power when any fnan-
cial panic occurred in America, from
the birth of the Republic to the pres
ent time. ] read still farther and |
learned that the republican party was

the republicans had their sleeves rolled

ram butting at solid stone wall. |
continued reading and found where if
the democrats got in power, the Unit

continually embarrassed, while if they,

cry thing would move on smoothly as
it had always done during the time

free trade, or in other words, did not
believe in any tariff at all. They put
out feeler to secure the colored vote,
devoting whole clause to sounding
the praises of Abe Lincoln for freeing
them in strict violation of the Consti-
tuition he had sworn to defend. can
assure them that they need not have
worried about the colored population
for every one of them who has got q
poll tax receipt and has sense enough
to get to the polls will vote for Taft
SO much for the republican convention
