THE TRUTH SHOULD BE TOLD.

That veracious newspaper which re-
Gently stated that so many Republi-
cans of this city were going to vote
for Bryan this year, is now out with
another statement that it "hears on
excellent authority that the employees
of the Standard Oil Co. in and near
this city have received orders to
vote for Taft. +" So long AZ we under
stand there is only one resident of
this city who is reputed to he an en-
ploye of the Standard Oh Co. this
may not be very important. But, OF
course, nobody believes there is a
word Of truth in it, aud that any news
paper should publish sneh II state
ment ~ a poor compliment to the in
teIllgence of its readers.
If there was a word of truth in it it
would have been published in all the
daily papers of the country, and none
believes, whatever else may be said
| agaipst them, that the managers OF
the Standard Oil Co. are fools. In
the present condition OF the public
mind if they wanted to hurt Taft the
hest way to do 1t would be to Issue
such orders. No, the Beacon has
| .oaln been victim OF its confiding
Innocence. or been misled by mex.
perienced zeal in partisan journalism.

AN APPEAL FOR 1.-THE BREAD LINE"

The Bowery Mission "Bread Line"
at which 1000 men who are out in the
streets for the night are given break
fast of hot coffee and rolls every morn
ing at one O'Clock, is one of the most
pathetic sights in all the wide, wide
world. Long before the hour of open
ing, these poor, starving men stand IN
single line that sometimes extends
for blocks in length, waiting for the
coffee and rolls. During the winter,
this breakfast is given to an aggregate
Of 100000 homeless men and boys,
| and up to date over half million Of
the homeless have had their weary
tramp restfully interrupted by this
unique ministration. The first of these
breakfasts is given on Thanksgiving
morning, and the last on the following
Easter morning. Altogether the Mis-
sion supplied, this year, over 3Ia,ooo
meals and s7,o72 lodgings to homeless
men and boys.
1t is for this grand, philanthropic
work that we ask your kind and prac
teal cooperation. The homeless
friendless, disheartened and despairinp
men and boys of the Bowery are moi
native New Workers, but men and boys
who, until within year, lived happily
at the old homestead with father and
mother, and perhaps wife. They are
stranded here, and in despair appeal to
the Old Bowery Mission, which, for
over thirty years, has been to the I'M
fortunate, as the rescue cities OF old, a
haven of encouragement, rest and pro-
lection. Shall we turn them away3 1t
rests with the good people Of this
country to decide this question, and
may God graciously help you to decide
it Alright.
