an is elected president. He has posted
a placard setting forth this threat, and
has signed 1t. Before this officials at
the works had passed the word along
that there was danger of their being
shut down for a year.
In his placard President Sharples
says in part:
"The blight Of the possibility OF the
success of Organism is now upon us.
Letters received every day from our
former best customers, who should be
ordering out thousands OF separators
at the present time, are refusing to
place orders for fear Bryan will be
elected.
"The possibility of such a dire cal
amity to us as his election seems re-
mote, but the hour we are convinced
such a thing will occur, or has oc-
Cured, that hour these works will
have to close down until the stock OF
tubular separators we carry Is reduced
by sales three-quarters. This will be
done as a matter of self-preseryation
and with as great regret as any en-
ployee could possibly have here for
the necessity"

Vermillion Republican: Even as a
man of words Mr.. Bryan has exhib-
tied too often the instability which
comes with easy and irresponsible
theorizing. He has never had to ap'
ply his notions, and has therefore
been tempted into fathering all kinds
of incomplete and half-baked schemes
in economies and politics, whose ruin
GUS consequences the country has for
tunately never been compelled tc
face. Would Mr.. Bryan's reputation
as a statesman have survived the trl'
umph of his silver imitation ideas OF
1896? We do not doubt that the
country would have turned upon him
and rent him if he had succeeded In
destroying u standard Of value and
isolating us from all the other great
commercial and industrial nations.
He would probably not have outlived
politically the successful application
of his anti-imperialistic policy OF 1900,
and he could not hope to outlive a
serious attempt to put his l9o6-O'
theory of government ownership and
operation of the railroads into prac,
tice. Mr.. Bryan is an unstable and
fertile %agitator, seizing and exploit
ing ideas as he has thought he could
turn them to temporary advantage.
But his rolling stone record has re-
PEELED the confidence of the American
people. They do not trust him as a
practical leader and administrator,
The vital issue of the campaign he is
now engaged In is the contrast be
tween his own improved capacity as
man of action and the proved Elf
cheney Of MI. Taft.

The ambition OF any man to be
president should not command al
legiance from any voter unless that
man stands for the commercial and
financial prosperity Of the nation.
You know what republican policies
under Roosevelt have done for the
people and you know Judge Taft will
continue the Roosevelt policies II
elected. No man can tell what we
will get II Bryan is elected. Be on
the safe side and vote for the Roose-
welt policies and against democratic
policies that might bring you a re-
turn Of the Cleveland hard times
when the farming interests Of the ma
tion were all but ruined.

Nfier Albert Ed WA II.
Probably the only American WIKI
ever refused to meet the Prince, ..
Wales is Col. Ethan Allen, author

the prince was visiting in New Yori
before the Civil War. Allen "a abou
the princes age and ut the time a law
student at the New York University
He refused to attend any Of the func

If he prince wants to see me l'
him call on me-" he said.
His friends laughed. But the prime.
did call upon Allen the first week ht
sity building in Washington Square
where young Allen had shut himself ul
for study. That same day the chan
cellor was to receive the prince in an
other part Of the building.
The reception hour came and Aller
sat in his solitude. Before long he
heard a loud knocking and a voice:
"Open this door. Who's in hereY'

relief to be out Of the jam. The mem.
bers Of the party were advanced IL
years except Mr.. Allen and the prince
and the two boys came togethes.
I'm glad to know you. sh the
prince said.
THANK you, SIR" said Mr.. Allen.
The two then took seats together
and talked for more than an hour
When they parted the prince said:
Il don't know when l have had sucl
a good time. VIII you call upon me at
my hotel?"
NO" vas the prompt reply. %
haven't the time"
The prince looked astonished. bu,
went on well, II you haven't time
now. MIR. Allen. perhaps you may have
time when YOU visit England. At any
rate, don't forget me-"
Though Co Allen has visited Eng
land many times, he has never awaited
himself of this Invitation. but last yea,
when the prince received a representa-.
tive of the Sons Of the American Rev.
olution. he said II was looking over an
old diary and l came across the strang
est incident that happened to me dur
cling my American visit. 1t was about,
a man named Allen who refused te
meet me. Do q know himp I'd Hks
to meet that man again.
But they haven't met yet.

Every republican in the county and
state should take an active interest
in the approaching election. There
are certain great principles involved
which is of interest to every man
who desires present conditions to con-
tinue. In the election of Judge Taft
we are assured that nothing al take
place that will effect the prosperity
of the farmer or disturb prevailing
prices. In the election of MI. Bryan
no man can tell what may happen,
and anything is likely to happen in a
contest Of conflicting policies between
a democratic president and a republic
can senate. just remember what you
got under Cleveland then work and
vote Tor Taft.

were sold 1t the following prices:
Hogs, 92.35 per 100 pounds.
