HERE'S A REPUBLICAN BOOM.
FRANC.

An editorial printed in the Fort
Worth (Tex.) Record Of September q.
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:
Mr.. Bryan promises us tariff reform.
But can he deliver the goods with a;
Republican house Of representatives
and a Republican senator
The Herald is openly fighting Mr..
Bryan, but the intended attack upon
him In this query rs pretty much OF
a boomerang. It's 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 a Republican senate
and house? Does that NEAR 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.
agless? 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 tariff revision
in spite Of a Republican congress-, how
will Mr.. Taft be able to accomplish
the feat? The Herald's argument is
SO loose and vulnerable as to be I'M
worthy of any paper which aspires to
the position in politics and journalism
which the Herald ssumes to fill.
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
a sacrifice of party affiliations for tbs
naming of the better man. Also, the
men who will form the next congress
are in many cases more patriotic than
partisan. There are Republicans who
will stand with the Democrats for
tariff revision in spite of all powers
against it, because tariff revision Is
a matter greater than party at this
time. 1t is going to be a pretty diff
cult job if Mr.. Bryan Is elected to
prevent tariff revision"

FROM THE
COMMONER
MR. A PAPER
THIS is THE STORY.

The most notable and important
ncan campaign at Youngstown, O.,
recently was not the speech OF
Gov. Hughes, nor yet that Of Senator
Beveridge. It was the part the steel
trust took In this formal launching
Of the Taft campaign in Mr.. Taft's
W 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 a three-day hol1-
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
TENDER 6:
The commanding feature Of the
day was the parade which preceded
the speaking in Wick park. There
were a few over Il, 900 men in line.
OF these more than 5000 came from
the steel mills. Supplied with uni
forms at the expense of the com
panies, the toilers presented a strik-
ing appearance as they marched past
the reviewing stand. Because Of the
opening a shutdown of the mills was
ordered till next Monday and the oc-
casion made a holiday. But few of
these workers attended the meeting
In Wick park. This was easily seen
by the lack of uniforms in the crowd.
Probably not over one-tenth Of the
turnout came to hear the speeches.
They found other attractions that the
holiday furnished and were content
to let others listen.
There were thousands Of Hun
garians, Roumanians and other Slav
people in this division. Each man
wore a khaki suit and carried a cane
or flag furnished by his employers.
They were divided into brigades and
were organized OF military lines, hav-
ing regimental and brigade officers.
"One Of the unusual incidents oc-
Cured when the parade halted at the
Elks' club. Some n called for a
cheer for Taft. Out of the uniformed
ranks in response came a roaring
shout for Bryan, and the column
moved on"
This is the story. 1t carries its
own argument, and requires very little
comment by way Of elucidation.-

THERE Is THE RECORD.

Referring to the Democratic cam
paign text book for 1908 the New
York World says:
1.-The Democrats have stout rods in
pickle for the Republicans this year,
as Is proved by their campaign book
of 800 pages, but they apply none of
them to the Republican president
They are opposed to jingoism, mill
tarism and imperialism, and yet the
most warlike of presidents escapes
criticism. They denounce extrava-
gance and waste at Washington, and
the man who is largely responsible for
this reckless expenditure finds no ac-
ileged plutocrats of the tariff, the COM
bines and the trusts, and yet the only
president who ever sent for a Harri-
man and arranged for the collection
Of a campaign corruption fund is no.
where condemned. They demand pub
licity in campaign expenditures, and
yet a president who neglected at a
critical time to insist upon that policy
is held blameless. They reproach the
Republican party for it's failure to en-
force the laws against the pirates of
Interstate commerce, and yet the pres
ident, who holds that the laws are too
drastic and that they must be modi-
fed, goes free Of c%ensure."
Harsh words are not necessary. The
Democratic text book shows up the
Republican record, and nothing could
be gained by bitter denunciation. The
facts as to jingoism, militarism, i'm
perialism, extravaganza and waste at
Washington, tariff privileges enjoyed
by combines aud trusts, Harriman's
contribution to the Republican cam
paign fund, the Republican party's
failure to enforce the law. and the Re-
publican record generally - these
things are all presented in compact
form.
There is the record. The people
may apply it-and the Commoner be-
lieves they will apply it, SO as to de-
feat the political party that is re-
sponsible for that record.
In the meantime anyone may obtain
a copy of the Democratic campaign
text book for 1908 for rs cents. 1t will
be sent, postpaid, for that sum. Ad-

Denver convention, is making a
splendid v of the Pacific coast

Ore:
AFTER spending three days in this

who are known to have declared for
Bryan. If the drift continues in Cal

PROTECTING
DEPOSITS IN ANK
An Ohio Example Of Tat's Posi-.
ton and Oklahoma's Proof
Of Brvan's Position.

One Of the planks of the Denver
platform favors guaranteed bank de-
posts. Mr.. Bryan addressed the
Ohio legislature in February favoring
guaranteed deposits. Former Gov.
Herrick subsequently addressed the
legislature in reply to Mr.. Bryan, op-
posing any such protection for banks
and bank depositors.
Mr.. Taft, in his speech Of accept
ance, denounced the plank of the Den
yer platform, which declares for a ma
tional Jaw for national banks similar
to the Oklahoma law for state banks,
thereby coinciding in the views of Mr..
Herrick, and opposing the views of
Mr.. Bryan. Below are two dispatches
showing what Mr.. Bryan stands for
and what Mr.. Taft stands for:

"After an attack of rheumatism,
running sores broke out on my hus-

the ankles. There are no words to
tell all the discomforts and great suf-
fering he had to endure night and day.
He used every kind Of remedy and
three physicians treated him, one after
the other, without any good results
whatever. One day I ordered some

and Cuticura R%esolvent. He began
to use them and in three weeks all the

voice came through the door telling
her that Alvin waited in the parlor to
say goodbye.
She went into the parlor. Alvin, a
man in years, yet ever the buoyant
boy, sprang forward with outstretched
hands to greet her.
ooh, Miss Stella, the so miles are
done! Done pom honor, too. The
commissioners have examined and &C
cepted the work. They say it's o. X.
and the governments bound to re-
ceive it. And the blamed strike that
broke out yesterday won't hinder the
c. p. a mite; they've got more men
coming on the sly. I'm going to my
Sacramento office in the morning. l
came to say good Why, Miss Stella!
What's the matter?"
His exuberance was a tonic. Stella's
numb heart began to beat a little color
to her lips, hope to her soul. Yet she
did not speak, though she smiled.
What is it, Miss Stellar" Alvin re-
peated. You look as If you'd died
and come back, though not all of you.
There's awful things in-your facet"
"And in my heart, too. Alvin. Oh,
Alvin, /" She grew cold again, and
was silent.
Tactful Alvin said nothing, but push
ing a chair behind her pressed her
gently into it. He did not release her
hand, but stroked it softly, waiting for
her to speak.
Suddenly she started up. This was
the thirtieth, and-a week, the letter
had said! And she did not know how
far the answer was to. go. Precious
time had already been wasted. II
was ages since she read those awful
words. She must do something, tel
some one, get help. Alvin! He was
the one. She put the letter in his
hand. Read it, quick!" she com.
manded.
He complied, starting at the first
words, then reading on quietly, through
the postscript directions, and ending
with a careful scrutiny Of the en-
velope. Stella watched him anxiously
wondering, even in her p~reoccupation
at the maturity and wisdom that came
into his face at ~emergency's call. ooh

to her room she met the hall boy and
ordered pen and paper. She had bare
ly seated herself to write when a dis
patch interrupted her; it was adj
dressed to William Dodge, and was
from Alfred at Carson City. Am de-
tanned here. Will be in Colfax on the
thirtieth."
In the reaction Of relief she wrote a
short, almost happy letter to Alfred,
sending 1t to post by the half boy. The
next day they faced homeward. No
other passenger shared the box seat
with Stella; and l%eisurely, a little shy
ly, she told Uncle Billy of her plans for
school, and received his advice, heart
felt, II not always wise.
At Dutch Flat she stopped to visit
an acquaintance, timing her home
going for Uncle Billy's next trip, hop
ing vainly that Alfred would be with
him. 1t was indeed a Homecoming!
Days only she had been away; they
seemed weeks. Sally b., Viola, Vic
Wah, even the dog, greeted her over
%poweringly. Suddenly she realized
with a heart-wrench her leaving it
would be.
Here's a letter for you," Sally B.
said, when Stella was at last free. 1T
came yesterday"
She took it, but paled with quick
fear when she saw the strange hand
writing. She FASTENED to her room.
There was neither date, address, nor
signature; but the message was cruel.
Stella Anthony: Alfred Vincent's
life is in your hands. Send to the adj
dress below within one week after
October 30 your written word that
you will marry Gideon Ingram, and
Vincent shall go free. Refuse to do
this and he shall die. Return this let
ter with your answer, or it will not
avail"
In the postscript were directions for
address; but Stella did not read them.
She thrust the sinister sheet out of
sight In her pocket; yet the words
burned in her brain, written there for
ever. Motionless, she gazed at the
wall In a useless endeavor to think.
Darkness fell. Still she stood there,
leaning against the wall now, though
she had no memcry Of moving. A step
caught her ear. She started up, In.

that? Yet how can l be Alfred's-
mur-murderer?" She s%huddered at
the word.
Perhaps this is only a threat from
some enemy Of Gideon's to get him
into trouble"
"Oh, no." Stella answered, remem-
bering the last look she had seer in
Gideon's face, I'm sure tim sure
Gideon knows of it."
"Oh, pshaw, Miss Stella! Gid Ing
