THIS is THE STORY.
MIR. BRYAN'S PAPER

The most notable and importar,
feature OF the opening of the Repub.
lican campaign at Youngstown, o.,
recently was not the speech OF
Gov. Hughes, nor yet that OF Senator
Beveridge. II was the part the steel
trust took In this formal launching
of the Taft campaign in Mr.. Taft 5
own state.
The Associated Press dispatches
briefly indicated what happened in this
paragraph Of It's report
along the rust.red waters Of the
Mahoning river to-day the great mills
of the Carnegie works of the United
States Steel Corporation, the Republic
Iron and Steel Company and the
Youngstown Sheet and Tube Com
pany were quiet. for three day holi'
day had been declared including sun
day and Labor day. Youngstown is a
steel town. and the Drawn and muscle
of her chief industry formed the body
Of the parade which preceded the dis
charge Of the heavy political ord
nance"
The extended special report which
the Cincinnati Enquirer gives Of the
big meeting throws more light on this
highly interesting feature. We quote
from the Enquirer of Sunday, Sep
tCmbcr g.
The commanding feature Of the
day was the parade which preceded
the speaking I'm Wick park. There
were n few over 1000 men in line
OF these more than 10000 came from
the steel mills. Supplied with uni
forms at the expense Of the com
panics. he toilcrs presented slrik
ing appearance as they marched past
the reviewing stand. because of the
opening a shutdown Of he mills wa'
ordered till next Monday and the oc
Casion made a holiday But few q
these workers attended the mCctin.
in Wick park This was easily seer
by the lack of uniforms in the crowd
Probably not over unc-tonth Of The
turnout came to hear the speeches
They found other attractions that thu
holiday furnished and were conten
to let others listen.
There were thousands Of Hun
garians. Roumanians and other Sla'
people in this division Each MAJ
wore n khaki suit and carried a cant
or flag furnished by his employers
They were divided into brigades an,
were organized on military lines, hay
ing rcgImental and brigade officers
One Of the unusual incidents &c
cured when the parade halted at tn
Elks' club. Some one called for
cheer for Taft. Out Of the uniforme,
ranks In response came roaring
shout for Bryan. and the colum
moved on
This is the story. II carries 1t
own argument. and requires very it'll
comment by way Of eucldation. -

The New York Journal has a car
toon showing "a Standard OH can Ia
king the place of the dome In pic
ture Of the capitol at Washington.
Good II is another evidence that the
people do not rule at Washington. but
that the trusts rule through the agency
Of the Republican party. As to legis
lation. Mr.. sherman, candidate for
vice president, said: THE Republican
party is willing and ready to accept
full responsibility" Exactly and the
Standard oil and other trusts rule
through that party. The only way to
prevent such rule is to elect Bryan.

The Methodist conferences continue
TO denounce Speaker Cannon because
he refuses to let proposed laws have
hearing. II is all right to vote
AGAINST Cannon for his dictation as to
what Legislation shall or shall not DO
considered. but It is essential also TO
vote out the Republican party that
makes Cannon's boss ship possible. De-
feat OF Cannon is good, but would not
remedy the situation unless the Re
puhlicans are turned out. II Republi-
cans win, and Cannon is defeated, tho
same iron rules will he carried OFT by

HERE'S A REPUBLICAN BOOM.
FRANC.

An editorial printed in the Fort
Worth tTeXD Record Of September 6.
will give the Republican standpatters
something to think about
The Records editorial follows:
Scattered over the editorial page OF
the New York Herald the following
line in italics appears several times:
Mir Bryan promises MS tariff reform.
But can he deliver the goods with a
Republican house Of representatives
and Republican senate
The Herald is openly fighting Mr..
Bryan. but the intended attack upon
him in this query is pretty much OF
boomerang. Its logical answer makes
more for Mr.. Bryan than against him.
The Republican party is pledged to
tariff revision. yet the Herald asks.
Can Bryan bring tariff revision with
the handicap of Republican senate
and house? Does that mean that a
body of Republican lawmakers means
that there shall be no tariff revision?
Does that mean that the Republican
promise for tariff revision is mean
inRess? Very evidently the Herald
so believes Nor is the Herald alone
in that belief.
And If Mr. Bryan, Democrat, can
not deliver the goods Of tarifl revision
In spite of a Republican congress, how
will Nh Taft be able to accomplish
| the feat? The Ilcralds argument is
80 loose aud vulnerable AS to be- IN
worthy Of any paper which aspIrcs ia
the position in politics and journalism
which the Herald assumes to MI.
But the answer to the question Is
that in the gathering together Of the
body of men who will make the next
congress there has been in many cases
sacrifice of party affiliations for the
naming Of the better man Also, the
men who will form the next congress
ar" in many cases more patriotic thar
partisan. There are Republicans who
/ will stand with the Democrats iut

Invents Automatic Rural Mail
Delivery.

R. p. Harrison, a farmer Of
Dunlap, Ia, has just invented
an automatic electric rural mail
delivery and has a model which
is working successful. By this
one man at the postofice can
send out all the mail, and that
rapidly. Not only is the mail
delivered, but other mail is col
lected.
The principle of the inven-
ton is as follows: There are
but two wires, all of the sta
tions being on them. The mail
clerk puts the letters sfor the
first house in a little carrier
and sends it out over the wire.
1t runs to the first house, stops
there, releases one left there
the day before, in which is any
mail that the family wants to
send, and this comes back to
the return wire.
In doing so it throws the.
switch open at the next house,
so that the second box goes to
the second house. If there is
no mail for the house a carrier
is sent anyway and opens the
switch for the next and picks
up any mail at the house.
A company has been formed
to back the invention and it
will be decided later where the
test will be made. In cannot
be made there owing to the
lack Of electric power.
Mr.. Harrison says that he
has worked for four years on.
his invention, but thinks that
he has a successful one now.
Most Of his knowledge about
electricity was acquired by
himself by hard study.

Address Of j. S. Dewell.

Address Of j. S. Dewell.
A large audience heard the
address by Mr.. Dewelllast night
at the Methodist church and
all were we'll repaid for their
attention. The address was
plain, logical and practical. In
opening Mr.. Dewell spoke of
crime in general, defining it as
a breach Of statutory command
ment or prohibition and show
ing the legal definition of juv-
mile crime as being that COM
mitted by youth under sixteen
years of age. The general pro-
cedure of courts in the trial of
criminal cases though some
times prolix and apparently
unduly carful of technicalities
was defended against unjust
criticism. The distinction be-
tween crimes essentially evil
(malum in se) and those that
became criminal only by stat
ute (malum prohibitum) was
set forth and with this intro
duction on the subject of crime
in general the speaker proceed
ed to the more particular
treatment of his subject, "Ju-
|venile Crime and it's treatment. /"
Boys and girls drift into crime
by traversing the lines of least
resistance, he declared. 1t is
estimated that ten per cent of
our criminals are hereditary
but that ninety per cent became
such by the influence of their
surroundings and by neglect in
childhood. Few people become
habitual criminals after twenty
five years of age. If we can
prevent boy from becoming a
criminal we have done ten
times as much goad as by re-
forming an aged criminal. In
modern penology treatment is
reformatory rather than re-
tributlve or retaliatory. In
dealing with children there is
too much prohibition, too much
Everlasting DON'T" without
helpful suggestions of a posi-.
tive nature regarding substi-
tutes for the prohibited activ-
ity.
Children drift into crime
from three great causes: the
desire to get something for
nothing, often facility or open
ly encouraged by the parents,
the desire to win applause from
their associates and the desire
for general notoriety. The
treatment must begin with the
home, though the state now
aids by laws providing for COM
4 pulsory education, for juvenile
courts and for reformatories.
4 The nature and benefit of these
enactments was shown, with
that of the parole system.
A brief outline such as this
can give but a slight Indication
of the instructive and practical
icharacter of this address. 1t
was listened to with sustained
Interest from first to last and
will be productive of much
good.

Ex-Shcriff Mcdonald Dead
Omaha, June q. John w.
Mcdonald, ex-sheriff and the
first marshal of the pioneer
town of Omaha, died tonight
following an operation Thurs
day for appendicitis and gall
stones. Death, it is stated,
was largely attributable to an
old wound +. .ciyed in an en-
counter duril the Transmits
sissippi exnG ton in which
Mcdonald " !; stabbed in the
abdomen while protecting his
aged father from assault by
ruffians.
Mcdonald was SIS years Of
age. He had lived in Omaha
since 1874, and leaves three
sons. He was sheriff three
terms and refused in 1907 to be
a candidate, pleading a desire
to return private life. It is said
that his wound was troubling
him at that time.
Mrs. Eberstein, Of Coffey-
vile, Kan, arrived in the VAL
ley this morning for a visit
with her sister, Mrs. Cora
Ferry.
Miss Nellie Rourke returned
from Dubuque, Saturday,
where she had been to attend
the wedding of her sister.
Miss Sherfey has been engage
ed to give domestic science
demonstrations in the morning

was recommended by Miss Haz-
iizard who claims that Miss Sher-
fey is as proficient in the busi-
ness as herself.

RAILROADS EN-
PLOYtNG MEN
Milwaukee Puts Two Hum
drcl Old Workmen Back
In The Shops

Dubuque, Ia, June 30 Fol-
lowing on the heels of the an
noancement few days ago of
the Illinois Central road that
some 5000 men in the various
divisions would be put back to
work, 400 employees of the Mil
waukee road, particularly men
laid off in the shops, were this
morning put back into service.
They return to work on a ten
hour a day schedule and six
days a week.
The change means at least
$4,000 a week added to the
money placed in circulation
here. The absence of this
amount was felt in every de-
partment of Dubuque's retail
business. 1t meant the laying
off Of clerks, the shortening of
stocks and its effect was APP
parent in the main channels Of
commercialism. The new or
der means an added awakening
in Dubuque business circles.
