ENDORSEMENT OF TAFT.
"a resolution declaring that the pre-
ference of the convention was for Mr..
Taft for president was submitted to
your committee. Upon consideration
we have unanimously agreed that it is
not wise to include a discussion in ia
vor of any particular candidate in the
platform.
"A number of the committee are ia
vorable to Mr.. Tafts candidacy and VIC
all recognize that "A majority of the
delegates to the convention desire his
nomination. 1t is, however, very I'M
certain whether resolution of prefer
ence would be carried and its presenta-
ton would certainly lead To a contest
which would be injurious to the welfare
Of the party For these reasons ana
because OF their earnest desire for
harmonious convention the minority
members of the committee join with
the majority in their decision not to

loudly applauded ana cheered, that the

The committees statement that It
considered IL unwise TO incorporate a
Taft preference resolution In tho
platform also was loudly applauded.
Before action was taken ON the res
oluuons committees report, Senator
Lodge, In response 10 many cries for
a speech, addressed the delegates.
Senator Lodge referred 10 the
controversy which had developed over
the preference and said that it's set

Senator Lodge said that he would
not attempt TO hide from the conven-
ton the fact that his attitude on the
resolutions had been influenced by mo-
tives OF friendship for senator Crane,

In his tribute to President Roose-

CITIZEN MAKES
A COMP ARISCN.

Particularly during this month
thoughtful men have been considering
how they can best promote the welfare
of the commonwealth and secure pros
peritv to themselves and their fellow
man through the exercise of their SUI
frage at the approaching election. The
solution to this life-problem can only be
reached through a process of clear ard
unprecedented reasoning, based upon the
facts Of the past and the conditions Of
the present, but there is a vast number
, Of voters, good, honest, hardworking
men, who are indolent in the matters Of
public interest and who are practically
unacquainted with the principles of the
several political parties and the history
of their past successes and failures,
consequently they become the easy prey
I of campaign sensationalisJs and I'M
knowingly become the material out of
which unscrupulous Office seekers build
| their temporary success.
1t is upon this element of our citizen
ship that the Democratic candidate for
Congr. SIS in the Sixth Congressional
District is seeking, with much head
shaking, hand fourshing and feet
| stamping to impress his main. meaning
/ less and pet theory, that his opponent,
/ Col Geo. A. Pemre, must be defeated
on the ground that he has already been
IN Congress too long, while his half
hearted coachers are raising the cry
| that the Colonel has done nothing but
draw his salary If the Hon. David J.
Lewis is really sincere let his conscience
prompt him to tell the people why he
supported his opponent in three different
campaigns to keep him in office too
! long, " and only to draw a salary, and
while he is doing that the people will
discern the character of a man who can
stick to prin, lpal and support policy
only so long as he can reap a personal
benefit and then openly repudiate it,
which weakness Is the root of all politi-
cal as well of private corruption and
the sy nbol of an unsafe official. Is the
plea of "to long in Office any reason
why we should not vote for Pearre, or
on the other hand, can we see in that
plea even the shadow of reason why
we should support Lewis.
Consider what would be the natural
decision of an honest employer, who
had been enriched by years of faithful
services from a skillful workman, if a
job hunter should ask him to put away
his faithful old servant and give him the
place. The honest employer would
stand by his tried friend and servant
and would let the "other fellow slide, -
and that is how the people will settle
the question between Pearre and Lewis

WHAT A ZIMMERMAN SAYS.
A Laborer in the Lumber Mills Gives
the "nountain Democrat" and
Garrett Journal" Hard
Nut to Crack.

We notice that the Democratic county
papers insinuate that undue influence
was being used in this equity with par
ties interested in lumber mills to have
Their employees vote for Taft. In reply,
while have never written an article for
a newspaper, | wish to inform both the
editors Of the journal and the Mountain
Democrat that no persuasion is needed
t influence our vote We who have
worked in the mills for many years,
have talked this matter over, and all
the boys state that their vote this year
IS still influenced for Taft and Pearre
by their memory Of the German Wilson
tariff bill, which Bryan eiped to frame
during Cleveland last administration.
This caused the greatest panic ever
known IN American history, throwing
Us out of employment for more than
four years, and by the reduction in the
price of lumber we could not get employ
ment at any price, and we feel sure
that if Bryan is elected we will all be
out of work again.

Garrett county. The great amount of
Labor employed is a big item in itself.
But 1t is not to be compared with the
benefits that will accrue and rebound to
Garrett county and those adjoining, by
placing this once famous highway in it
old condition. Congressman Pearre has
not only introduced this bill, but he has
done much to impress upon the minds of
his colleagues the Importance of its
passage Hence it is our duty to see
that he is returned to his seat in Con
gress in order that he may be enabled to
finish the work so molly begun. Col.
Pearre has effected much good work
during his terms in Congress and has
many other good bills IN line for passage.
He is, and always has been, a close
adherent to the principles Of Lincoln,
Mckinley, Roosevelt and Taft. He is
pledged, along with the Republican
party, to revise the tariff. Mind you |
said revise, not abolish" as the
Democratic free traders are agitating.
Do we want d man in Congress from
this district when this great economic
question is being discussed who is free
trader? A man who would vote to put
upon the free list the products OF the
coal mines Of Western Maryland. and
place the products of these mines in
competition in eastern cities with the
coal mines along the southern borders
of Canada? What would be the result?
The reduction not only in the output of
our mines, but a reduction in the price
paid our labor, which in turn would eff
feet the markets to such an extent that
the farmers in our county could not sell
their products.
He stands for d revision of the pro-
tective tariff He believes in giving
every man a square deal, as his past
record Will show. He believes, with
Taft, that all men should stand equal
before the law. Not one law for the
rich man and another for the poor man.
He has honestly and faithfully repre-
scented this district for nearly ten years,
and his splendid record, his ability, his
patriotism and his fidelity to our inter
ests have SO prominently marked him
as worthy Of reelection that we must
come out to the polls on Tuesday, Nov
3, and return him to Congress with such
an overwhelming plurality that we may
show to the balance of the state that
old Garrett is still the rock-ribbed Re.
publican county that it has always beer
for decency and good government Let
all the old veterans, sons of veterans
and neighbors of veterans not only com
to the polls themselves but bring some
one else with them.

WORDS OF AN
OLD SOLDIER.

Cur candidate for Cong rcssional hon
ors in the coming election from this
district, as you all know. is the present
incumbent Hon. George a. Pearre.
He has acceptably filed his seat in the
House of Representatives. for the past
five terms. lie is man of Intelligence,
integrity and efficiency in the discharge
of his duties to his cons lututs. regard
less of their politics His years of
ardent service in the lower House have
emmently fitted him for the duties to
winch he again aspires. He is capable
and he is honest. Thoroughly seasoned
in the work which he is called upon to
perform, he has never shirked his duty
Pearre is no sluggard. Henevcr sleeps
on the job. Wide awake and alert to
the needs of has people, he is ever ready
and active when Legislation regarding
their welfare is at stake Heis the one
man above all others whom we should
all feel proud to have represent Us in
the next administration.
We, as old veterans, know his worth.
He has been our friend in every thing
that was for our good And 1t seems
that he is never happier than when he
is working in the interests Of the old
soldiers who left their homes and went
upon the battlefield to fight for home
and country How many Of US might
testify to his untiring zeal in his efforts
to have the boys of 81 receive all that
was their due And how many of our
pension claims has he so successfully
pushed for us to satisfactory conclu-
sion.
Then again we do not want an un-
known man to represent us. We do rot
want a man who has never been tried
We want a man like Col. Pearre who
has ten years Of valiant service to his
credit A man who knows all the ms
and outs Of his profession-for states
manship is a profession.
If we elect a new man, no matter how
good he may be personally, he will have
to learn the ways of Congress. He will
haye to acquire knowledge and influence
in the House that would take a great
deal of time. This our candidate has
already at his command And he would
be at least ten years ahead of a new
man in this one particular alone The
new man W0uld have tn haoip a+ tho
bottom Of the ladder, even if he were
equal in ability, when he entered the
race, with the present incumbent.
Then why make change for the mere
sake of changing?
His bill for the re-establishment Of
the old national pike alone is of such
Importance that it vitally concerns every
voter and every taxpayer in this part Of
