Welt is uncompromis.n gly in favor of
a monetary system based on the gold

President Roosevelt is pledged to
a tariff system embodying the prin-
ciple Of protection for American in
dustrits, Mr.. Bryan in his attest ut
tcrances. demands tariff for reve-
nue. only. which means free trade.
President r osevel believes that
corporations engaged in interstate
traffic should be regulated by federal
authority. Mr.. Bryan insists that
they shall be destroyed.
Pres dent Roosevelt declares for
al army and navy grea enough to
SAT- guard American interests in ev-
cry rart of the W rid Mr. Bryan as
strts that the army and navy are al
ready costing too much.
President Roc sevelt stands for the

TO MAKE ISSUES OF MEN,"

They (the Repub icans) are try
ing to make issues of men. john
W. Kern. Bryans candidate for
vice president.
Why net? Are the Bryant .es
afraid to make issues OF menu"
There are many reasons why they
should decline to face a comparison
between Taft and Bryan, and it is
not remarkable that Bryan's asso-
oiate on the Denver ticket should re-
Sard with disfavor and apprehension
the very proper determination on
the part Of the republicans that the
American people shall have the full
est possible opportunity to aA'ive at
correct judgment as to whether
William H. Taft or william ]. Bry-
an is the better fitted to direct ma
tional affairs at home and abroad.
When Mr.. Bryan's past and pres
ent are considered and compared
with the past and present Of Taft.
Il Is far from strange that Mr.. Kern
should dread to have American vot-
ers asked to decide the election on
such comparison. Mr.. Bryan begs
that his past shall not be made an
issue. on the ground that 1t was
from the Denver platform.
Mr.. Taft offers no such plea. On the
he expressly stands upon
his public record from the day he
assembled the bench until his retire
ment as secretary Of war to accept
the republican nomination for presi-
dent of the United States. That rec
ord Is leading issue in the cam
paign, as 1t ought to be. for it proves
William II. Taft to be the fittest man
In all America to succeed Theodore
Roosevelt In the White House, and
to carry forward the great policies
to which the republican party Is
pledged by principle and by achieve
ment. The personal issue should be.

the way you torture that little doggie
and kitty?'
'sOh. nobody would dare to harm me, :"
declared naughty Nell. my pape and
mamma would not allow it. They are
very rich, and we have everything we
want, and nobody would dare to harm
me-
"Well, well Sc about that" said the
fairy, determined to teach naughty Nell
a lesson. And instantly she drew forth
her wand and waved 1t above Nells
head, and 10! her pretty warm hood be-
came thing of threadbare cotton. Her
fur-lined jacket turned into an old
ragged cape scarcely covering her
shoulders. Her shoes became thin and
full of holes. And her hands became
bare, turning purple from the cold.
"Oh, what are you?' cried Nell, much
frightened at the strange things that
had happened. "Why did you change
my pretty clothes into these old
things?"
I'm a fairy, and I want to let you
taste the punishment you inf1ict on
other creatures" explained the fairy.
Nov I'm going to run back and forth
ON this icy pond, leading you by
string till 1 have caused you to suffer
as you have been making your pretty
and helpless pets to suffer"
"But you won't dare" declared Nell
stoutly. "Tn call to my papa and
mamma to come and beat you and to
drive you off"
"Ah, you naughty child; didn't you
hear me say I'm a fairy? And If 1
wished to do so I could turn you into
a stump, or a rock, and make you lie
on the bank of this pond forever. So
don't be too impudent or I may make
your sentence the harder for you to
bear. Now, come on, follow me, and
run lively, too"
So saying, the fairy tossed a long,
looped string over Nell's head, drew it
up snugly about her neck still holding
tightly to the other end. Then she flew
up and down the frozen pond, dragging
poor, half-frozen and suffering Nell
after her. In vain Nell pleaded and
begged; the tireless fairy kept her run
ming up and down.
At last naughty Nell fell to the Ice
exhausted and began to weep and to
call to her papa and mamma. Then the
fairy came to where she lay and said:

WI ERE you ever naughty? No?
w Well, that is right; never, never
be naughty. And if naughtiness
ever tempts you to be Influenced by
him just recall to mind the story of
Naughty Nell.
And this is the story:
Once upon a time a little girl of the
name of Nell lived in fine big house,
and she had no brothers or sisters, and
was the only child there. Her mamma
and papa gave her so many toys and
pets she hardly had time to get &C
quainted with them. Among her pets
were a dear little doggie and kitty,
Just the cutest wee things you ever
saw. But little Nell was very unkind
to Rex, the doggie, and Maybelle, the
kitty. She leased them and pulled
their ears and tails. and pinched them,
till Rex parked with pain and May
belle mewed piteously from the hurt
But Nell was a very naughty little girl
and did not mind hurting her pretty
little pets that could not defend them
selves.
One day naughty Nell went out upon
the frozen pond to play at skating. She
had no skates, but pretended to skate
on her pretty red shoes. She had Rex
and MaybelIe tied to long ribbons, ana
led them about on the ice-covered pond
till their poor little bodies were almost
frozen and their paws were numb with
cold.
In vain did Rex and Maybelle bark
and NEW; the naughty Nell paid no at
tention to their plants. So long as she
was warm and happy what mattefed It
about Rex and Maybelle?
But there was a good fairy flying
overhead. and seeing the unhappy
plight of Rex and Maybelle she came
down to the pond and asked Nell why
she was so cruel to her pets. They're
mine. and 1 can treat them as l like"
retorted Nell. She had no idea that she
was talking to fairy, a real, sure
enough fairy. So, after she had made
her unciyil answer she put out her
tongue in an ugly way at the pretty
fairy whom she thought to be another
little girl like herself You see, the
fanny had her wings hidden beneath
long warm cape, and her little wand
was kept secreted in deep pocket of
her apron.
"Well, don't you know 1t is cruel TO
hurt any living thing?" asked the fairy.
"How would you like to be tortured IN
