DON'T WORRY"


His name was Hezekiah Doolittle
and he was blessed with a sanguine
temperament. When he proposed &c
Annie Warner, she Inquired what means
he had with which TO support wife.
None whatever" said the cheerful
Hezeklah, 'but poverty is no disgrace,
and some day expect to strike it rich.'
They were married and went to live
with Annie's parents, until something
turned up" Hezekiah passed by the
small jobs, looking for something big,
but he was always ON hand for meals.
Annie fretted because they were a
burden on her parents, and chided him
for his inaction.
Don't worry" said he. 1T will spoil
your beauty"
Hezekiah lived up to his own creed
and refused to worry. no matter how
great the proyocation. Even when
Annie's parents turned them out he was
perfectly calm. The Lord will pro-
vide" he exclaimed, placidly; but his
wife wasted no time II talk. She rented
a small cottage, bought some furniture
on credit, and took in washing.
'sThe debt on the furniture will soon
be DUE she reminded him one day.
Never trouble trouble until trouble
troubles you." quoted Hezekiah.

We are anxious to prevent even an APP

IN the interest of justice to all.
The Democratic proposal to supervise
the business of corporations in such
way as to fix the price of commodities
and compel their sale at such a price is
absurd and socialistic plank as was
ever inserted in a Democratic platform.
The Democratic platform proposes TO
take of the tariff on all articles coming
into competition with those produced by
the so-calIed trusts" and TO put them
on the free list. Such a course would
not only destroy the trusts. but all their
smaller competitors.
The combination of large capital in
plants TO manufacture goods with the
greatest economy is just as necessary as
the assembling of the parts of machine
to the manufacture of what formerly was
made by hand. The government should
not interfere with the one any more than
the other.

Mr.. Roosevelt's policies have been pro-
gressive and regulative-Mr Bryan's de-
structive.
The Republican platform we'll states
that we must have a more elastic and

Unlawful trusts should be restrained
with all the efficiency of injunctive pro-
cess and the persons engaged in them
should be punished with all the severity
of criminal prosecution.
We are a world power. and. although
at peace with the world. we must be
prudent and not be lulled into a sense of
security. which would possibly expose US
TO national humiliation.
Never in the history of the country has

banks as may come in, in the nature OF
enforced Insurance TO raise a guaranty
fund to pay the depositors of any bank
which fails. The proposition is to tax
the honest. prudent bankers to make up
for dishonesty and imprudence of others.
No one can foresee the burden which
would be imposed upon the sound and
conservative bankers of the country by
this obligation TO make good the losses
caused by the reckless. speculative and
dishonest men who would be enabled to
secure deposits under such a system on
the face of the proposed insurance. In
its present form. the proposal would re-
move all safeguards against recklessness
in banking and the chief and in the end
probably the only benefit would accrue
to the speculator.
The Republican party has pursued con-
sistently the policy originally adopted
with respect to the dependencies which
came TO us as the result of the Spanish
war. The material prosperity Of Porto
Rico. Cuba and the Philippines and the
progress of their inhabitants toward bet
ter conditions in respect to comfort OF
living and education should make every
American proud that this nation has been
an efficient instrument in bringing happi
ness TO these millions of people.
The Question of Reasonable Profit.
Critics of the tariff plank in the Re
publican platform are declaring that
there is probably not a protected indus
try in the country that thinks it has
"A reasonable profit" even under the
present law. That assertion is not true,
surely and ii may be doubted if those
who make it believe it to be true. No
cause is helped by MEASUREMENTS, de-
liberate or other. The necessity of
maintaining profits in connection with
an effort to equaliZe the cost of produc-
ton at home with the cost of produc-
ton abroad may not be apparent At
the same time. not all the men at the
head of enterprises which benefit by
the duties that are levied at ports OF
to contend that they az not making
reasonable profits, and some of them,
bent on securing cheaper raw mate
rails. have admitted over their own
signatures that they could compete on
almost equal terms with foreign rivals.
Protection tina: does not protect is of
no advantage. of course, and protection
that does give TO home producers what
practically amounts to a monopoly of
the home market must, in tire nature OF
things. yield a fair profit or business
