Mr.. Hill, the Republican nominee
for representative, seems TO be of the
opinion that he should be elected be-
cause he is an attorney. The voters
however, are Of the opinion that w.
T. Smith should be elected because
he is a good business man man
who has studied the conditions in
Marion county, not from the view
point of an attorney, but has looked
at them from purely a business stand
point. They also admire the Demo-

ing all Of the credit for having in
creased the valuation of railroads,
why does he not claim also all of the
credit for having increased the tax
rate in Marion from thirty-seven to
thirty-nine mills. He could just as
consistently claim the latter as the
former. He is a member Of the
board which does the appraising of
corporations, he is also a member
of the board which fixes the tax
rate. If he wants all of the credit
for one, let us give him all of the
credit for the other too.

that Mr.. Smith will vote for Hon.

Some millionaires must have dis
covered the depleted condition of the
treasury of the Republican national
committee. At any rate million
dollars has been raised to carry on
the work. This fund is known as the
slush fund. $15O,OOO of this fund
has been dumped into Ohio; $780,
900 into Indiana and similar amounts
into other doubtful states. All this
is being done, not because Ohio and
Indiana are doubtful state at all, but
just to make the majority over
whelming, dontcherknow.

Mr.. Mouser has, up to date, failed
and refused to explain how he be-
came one of the leading stockhold-
ers in Senator Dicks California Gold
mine, during his first term in Con-
gress. Can this be the treasurer
box of the old Hanna-Dlck organi-
zation, whereby their tools secured
campaign funds for second and third
terms? In view of these facts, 1t is
quite probable to see in the future
many earnest boosters for Dick TO
again head the Ohio organization.

The Republicans have tried to
scare the voters into supporting Taft,
they have tried to coerce them, and
now they are going TO try to buy

ences which have been brought to
bear against him for Mr.. Taft.

In statement under date of Octcb-
er 16, just two weeks ago today,
Mr.. Mouser had some Of the stock
holders in his famous gold mine com
pany state that they were absolutely
satisfied with the investment they
had made. Mr.. Mouser must have
anticipated some trouble over his
sale of those stocks and was getting
loaded.

Senator Dick and Congressman
Mouser made great mistake when
they organized that $25OO,OOO gold
mining company. They should have
sold stocks in some railroad which
they never intended TO build. Then
they would have been "masters of
finance" and captains of industry"

NO HANDICAP FOR
CARL c. ANDERSON

Mr.. Mouser the present congrts-
man from this district has made
great claim to the old soldiers
of the district that he has
been their friend at all times and
that he has let no opportunity go
by to do them a good turn in the
matter of pension legislation. His
record, however, in some instances at
least does not bear out the state
ments which he has been making to
the old soldiers and the parting OF
the ways seems to have come. The
following letter from Isaac r. Sher-
wood, stating very plainly Mr.. An
dersons position on the pension
question has been sent to all Of the
old soldiers in the district. IL shows
that Mr.. Anderson is on the side OF
he veterans and that if he is elect.
ed to congress he will not be handi-
,aped by having to vote just as Jo
Cannon will dictate.
