CAN'T FOOL OHIO FARMERS
ABOUT G. 0. P. PROSPERITY

One Of the boasts of the Roosevelt
Taft serving newspapers and cam.
paign orators has been that the
wonderful prosperity of the farmers"
would be one of their principal polit
lcal assets.
To bolster up this boast they have
been claiming all this prosperity as
the direct beneticence of the g. O. p,
and Senator Dolliver capped the cli-
max Of absurdity when he declared
that the Almighty is responsible for
the trusts.
In their efforts to Offset the col.
lapse of the full dinner pail with
bountful crops for the farmers, who
have always reverently believed that
they sowed and that God gave the in.
crease, these false prophets of pros.
perity are not keeping very close
watch of the market reports.
While they are desperately claim.
ing that prosperity Is coming back
right away If Taft Is elected" prices
for farm products are taking a tumble.

don't Roosevelt and Taft prevent fall.

Last year farmers could sell their
hay at from $40 to SIS per ton; this
year they get from So to 81 per ton
Last year farmers got from % to

nice little sum of 203 federal office
holders in the Roosevelt Republican
national convention Of 1908
Was it, in any just sense, a dele
gated Republican convention? Who
selected the delegates? Did the del
egates in this convention choose a
candidate for president or did a pres
ident choose the delegates?
II the 203 delegates should act In
body, it would only be necessary to
get 2S7 of the other delegates to act
with them to make majority.
If, then, the Notwithstanding dele
gates had been opposed to the nom
inatlon of Taft by 200 majority; still,
he could have been and would have
been nominated over their heads.
No candidate for president, except
the presidents candidate, had any
show whatever; and in contest the
contesting delegate had no more
chance of getting a seat than he had
of being struck by lightning, unless it
should be considered good political
policy to give him seat.
After the allies We're routed and
after Taft's nomination was secure
and all danger was over from Roose-
velt's standpoint, the Burke resolu-
tion was offered providing that in fu-
ture national conventions delegates
could be apportioned according TO
votes cast, but it was overwhelmingly
defeated.

will continue to fall as the farmers
new corn begins to come into market.
These are some of the examples Of
wonderful prosperity for farmers"
At the same time, however, the
farmer must go on paying higher
prices for everything he buys on ac-
count of the tariff. which protects
nobody but those we'll fattened "in-
fant Industries" called trusts.
The farmers of this state must pay
more for farming machinery manu-
factured in Ohio than the farmer in
Australia or South America pays for
the same machinery after. all of the
cost of shipment has been added to
the cost of manufacture.
Isn't it about time for Dolliver to
come around and tell the farmers
what the Almighty means by such
business methods as this in the
midst of the campaign Roosevelt and
Taft are carrying on to coax back
the prosperity they scared away a
year ago?
Or is 1t not more reasonable to
believe that these farmers OF Ohio,
for whom Roosevelt appointed
commission of college professors to
better their condition. are intelligent
enough to know that the Almighty is
not to blame and that the trusts are
for the tumbling prices that are
knocking the props out from under
that wonderful prosperity" of theirs
year ago?
Neither the Establishments Of
Roosevelt and Taft nor the foolish
utterances of Dolliver to transfer
blame for the trusts from the z. o. p.
to Jehovah, will fool the farmers Of
Ohio into voting against William j.
Bryan for president, because the farm
ers of Ohio believe more firmly than
yer before that the people, and not
he trusts, should rule the nation.

President Roosevelt as manager in
chief of Mr.. Tafts campaign, is max
ing great pretense of political virtue
by removing here and there few
minor federal appointees for violating
the civil service laws.
1t will be remembered that Presi-
dent Roosevelt was accused last win
ter of using official patronage to Sc
lect delegates for Taft in the national
convention. The president denied
this in letter to William Dudley
Foulke In which he cited an order is
sued to members of his cabinet in
structing them to forbid their subor-
dinates from participation in politics.
Senator Foraker at the time showed
up the inconsistencies of the presi-
dents letter and cited instances in
Ohio in which political patronage was
bartered for Taft's support
All this line Frank H. Hitchcock
an employe of the postal department,
was working in the south, and through
the power of political patronage Sc
cured outright or set up contesting
delegations for Taft. where Senator
Foraker expected to have number
of delegates favoring his nomination
for president.
Hitchcock was placed in charge OF
the steam roller at Chicago and, sit
ting in the national committee on a
proxy "a wholly unprecedented pro-
ceeding), he helped to unseat 216 of
these contesting delegates for For
aker and the allies. or these PIG con-
testing delegates 81 were federal
officeholders, and of the total number
of delegates in the convention 2O3
were federal officeholders at an aggre.
gate salary of $750,00O annually. and
one-forth of these federal patronage
delegates were postmasters.
OF the 30 delegates from the state
of Alabama, in the fourteenth Repub-
lican convention, 13 were federal
officeholders.
OF the 10 delegates from Florida, Z
were federal officeholders.

Revision.

II is an old-time Republican cry that
"the tariff will be revised by its
friends Representative Mccall Of
Massachusetts,, Republican, hit the
nail on the head when in referring tn
this cry he said: IF the tariff cannot
be revised when two-thirds of the
membership of both houses is Repub.
lican. when is revision to Gomez"
Revision, through the Republican
party, is to come whenever the bene.
ficiaries of a high protective tariff are
willing to surrender the enormous ad.
yantages they possess; and this sur,
render will be made whenever human
.eltishness is destroyed.

Of this bank, I. B. Cameron, was Nc
Kinnon's predecessor in the Office of
state treasurer. Now, Green is next
in the line of succession.
When the senate committee was
probing the treasury McKinnon was
interest on the states deposits and
he replied II didn't want to;
thought / was doing right" Asked
II he ever tried to get more than l Ne
per cent interest from ''active de-
positories," which hold deposits
subject to checks, and 2k from the
banks that had time deposits, McKin-
non replied, II never tried"
Is it SO difficult to understand why
q state treasurer who. with his wife
and deputy, owned large amount of
stock in banN Of which he was also
director wouldn't want to or wouldn't
try to get more than 2h per cent
interest for the state, while the gen.
eral public is invited by advertise
ments day and night to come and get
1 per cent on private deposits?
The facsimile of page from q
circular advertisement Of this bank,
which appears above, shows some
thing more than that Mr.. McKinnon
is one of its directors. 1t shows that
H. M. Daugherty is also one Of the
directors along with Mr.. McKinnon,
and that he Is slso first vice presi-
dent Of the bank.
What Dsugherty Is this, you ask?
1t is the same H. M. Daugherty who
wants to succeed Senator toraker in
the United States senate, better
known as Harry M. Daugherty, and
who was the attorney of McKinnon
and Guilbert in the investigation by
the senate committee.
Mr.. Daugherty, therefore, is not a
disinterested party when he goes
about the state making speeches. or
when he writes defenses for the
state Republican committee to use as
campaign literature in the effort
which Guilbert, McKinnon, Green,
Cox. Fullington and Brown are
making to cover up the truth while
their stalking-horse candidate for
governor tries to shield them by bang
ing away ut temperance" to distract
attention from state house scandals.
Neither was Mr.. Daugherty alto
gether disinterested when he ap-
peared before the senate committee
as attorney for McKinnon and Gull
bert. He, as well as McKinnon and
Green and Guilbert and Fullington
and Cox, was interested as bank
official in the facts the peoples law
fully constituted probe committee
was trying to bring to light.
In a speech at Greenyille, Mr..
Dapgherty said: ~ happen to know
as much about this alleged investiga-
tion as any man in the state, for

auditor Of state before the committee

COWS are going to dry up in Novem-
ber and not become fresh again for
four years. 1t will really be a serious
matter. There must be some mis-
take about this separator business.
The man may be manufacturing the
separator that the Republican party
has been using, for it has been using
separator that has separated the
cream from the milk and it has given
the cream to the monopolies and the
skinned milk to the rest of the peo-
pie. That kind of a separator will
no longer be used and those who
manufacture it may find their occu-
patton gone, but for the rest Of the
people it will be a glad day, day Of
great rejoicing"
