THE YOUNG REPUBLICAN.

In a business sense the young voters
who have come forward since 1904 have
more at stake than any other class in
rendering a right decision. Their ac-
tive lives are ahead. They have more
wears to live, and are now laying the
foundations of their business careers.
National policies and conditions are of
the highest consequence to them. Per
haps they are farmers. If SO, let them
ask the older generation how farmers
Jared under the last Democratic adHliaa-
istration. Let them take the marKet
reports of to-day and compare them
with the prices that prevailed when Mr.
BRYAN made his crusade for free silver
and hurled defiance at President Cleve-
land because he stood by the gold
standard. At the same time Bryan de-
nounced the Republican party for its
protectionist as well as sound money
position. Perhaps the first voter is to
engage In manufacturing or mining. as
wage-earner or otherwise. Does he
want his American rate of wages and
the industry he chooses reasonably pre-
tected against foreign competition? II
he does Mr.. Bryan's leadership will
take him in the opposite direction

GROWTH OF WEALTH PER
CAPITA.
Doctrine that the Poor Are Growing
Poorer Shown to he False.

Doctrine that the Poor Are Groyving
Poorer Shown to BE False.
(From the Los Angeles Times.)
In 1920 the savings banks of the
United States held Sa,138.576. This
was poor country then compared with
now. The amount was only an average
of IL cents for the population OF that
time. That amount of average economy
was very small.
Now the people OF this country have
$500, 878.945 in savings banks. This
is an average for the whole population
Of this time OF over $40. The actual
deposttOrs have an average OF $42G to
their credit. In 1920 only $685. GER
sons ia the country were rich enough to
have savings bank account. Now
there are 8,5SS,S11.
When James Buchanan, the last
Democratic President In a long line,
went into Office. there was about $780,
100000 in the savings banks of the
United States By 1870, after fighting
out the grea. war, the people, under
Republican rule for twenty years, Lad
$3.50, 100000 in the savings banks. When
the next Democratic President took his
seat in 1888, the savings of the people
had passed the billion point. By 1898
the savings had doubled again.
So there it is. In 1920 there were
only about 5000 people rich enough to
have a savings bank account. Now
there are over 100000 Ia 1920 the
savings were u cents per capita; now
they are over $40
That the poor grow poorer and the
rich richer In this country is as true
as any other Populistic notion.

DEMOCRATIC ALDERMAN
BOLTS JOHNSON.


Wilhelm Peterson Of Mime
apo1is, Democratic alderman of
that city, who recently came out
against Gov. Johnson for a third
term in a vublished interview IN
a Minneapolis newspaper, will
take the stump this fall for TAFT
and Jacobson. He will deliver
a number OF speeches in Mime
sofa and several in other states.
AS a reason for quitting Bryan
and Johnson, Mr. Peterson says
that he is opposed to third-term
candidates for governor, and
doesn't like Gov. Johnson's weak
kneed acceptance Of the nonlna-
ton after he had said that he
would not be candidate.
Mr.. Peterson does not like
Bryan's radicalism on national is
sues, especially as to the guaran-
teeing Of bank deposits. The
line up Of the Johnson forces to
help Bryan carry the state this
fall was the last straw, and Mr..
Peterson has ceme over to the
Republican side, where the can
didates are strong in pursuing
the course they have marked out
where the issues are met in a
sane manner and where there is
no uuibbling over things.
Two years ago Mr.. Peterson
was one Of Johnson's most ar
dent supporters.-St. Paul Pio-

(From Taft's Cincinnati Speech
what is it that we have to expect
from Mr.. Bryan? Have we anything
to expect but what he promises? Have
we anything to expect but what y

adroitness as a public critic? Has be
ever given any practical demonstration
Of his ability to meet problems and
solve them? Has he ever done any
thing but formulate propositions in his
closet Of an utterly impracticable
plausibility, and very little with view
of their operation? BY their fruits
we shall know them
with the record OF promises and
prophecies unfulfilled for period Of
twelve years; with this record of a
hunt for an issue upon which to
achieve the presidency; with this rec

''The record of Mr.. Bryan and his

have impressed the business communi-
ty of this country and those whose
judgment determines whether or not

a safe man with whom to try expert

The United States has come into pos
session OF the Philippines and all the
political and strategical responsibilities
entailed by this movement. The partici-
patton in, and suppression Of, the Boxer
rebellion. the expanding recognition Of
the supreme Importance to the future
Of American trade, of the open door, the
realization that, with the exception OF
Japan, no country is SO well situated
as the United States, industrially and
geographically, to make the most and
the best Of the development of China.
These and other events have trans
formed American Indifference to the
fortunes of the Far East into real,
live, tingling and vigilant concern.
Logical Commercial Events.
It did not need the Chinese boycott
Of American goods, or the outbreak Of
the trouble with Japan over the immi-
grafton question, to convince an impair
tial onlooker that Americas relations
with the powers Of the Far East would,
before long, be more immediate, of
greater moment and possibly of greater
hazard than our relations with the
powers of Europe. The American fleet
has foreshadowed the systematic asser-
ton of American power in the Pacific.
American interests in that ocean, COM
mercial, political and territorial, have
been neglected far too long.
Father OF the Philippines.
Mr.. Taft is in a sense the father of
the Philippines. 1t has been his kindly,
constructive statesman's hand that
evolved order out Of their original
chaos In his report submitted to Con-
gress, as a result of his visit to the
Philippines to be present at the opening
of their first Assembly, he made four
recommendations First-action by Con-
gress admitting to the United States
Philippine products under such condi-
lions that they would not interfere
with American tobacco and sugar in
dustries second, the removal Of re
strictions as to acquiring mining claims
and lands: third, further legislation
authorizing the government to carry
on an agricultural bank, which is now
authorized only as private enterprise /;
fourth the repeal of the law applying
to the Islands the coastwise laws OF
the United States.
Philosophy of Development.
Our nation has grown by obeying the
instinct of development. We are to-day
entitled to be called Greater America
but that greatness will be lost If we
! forget the political philosophy which
has made us great-expansion of Amer
lean thought. territory, mechanical skill
civilization and philosophy This is an
suspicious time for the creation and de
| yelopment of our export trade. The un
explored and undeveloped markets OF
! Asia furnish the opportunity. All other
fields have been occupied, and to at
] tempt to wrest them from other nations
would be of doubtful expediency. Ii
the Orient the commercial possibilities
exceed the dreams of the optimist.
Are the American people ready tt
abandon such situation and leave Il
to the mercy of the Democratic party
with it's failure of fifty years looking
at us from the past?

A very fair child of five years OF age
is the only type to whom the colors are
more becoming than white.
Little brunettes and those considered
neither blond nor dark will be all the
more attractivelv costumed for a touch
of delicate shade in their dresses.
Next to all-white hair ribbons come
those in Dresden designs and pompadour
effects. Those. too. give an agreeable
finish to a white toilet. but when the
frock is of lowered organdie or similar
fabric plain ribbons of the prevailing
color in the dress are best.
Very delicate colors in hair ribbons
should be used when the hair is dressed
to roll back from the face and Is tied
just at the back of the ears. This brings
the bows close to the face. and decided

New Neck Finish.

The small things of dress really rule
the costume. and one OF the most becom-
ing OF the new dress fancies is the mod
esty fold which is worn around the low
neck or which is used to fill in the square
neck should the gown be cut too low for
general wear.
Al lovely dinner dress Of ecru crepe de
chine was finished with a modest fold ot
pink chiffon. which was set into the
square neck. front and back. The chiffon
was embroidered and seeded with pearls.
And another gown had fold of Persia n
velvet set In the neck. 1t was four inches
deep, forming little vest. and the velvet
was most deliberately embroidered in
various tones of silk and gold.

speak of a new variety with attachable
handles that are used as directoire walk

of these handles: also some Of the latest
designs in parasols.
Among the comparatively new beltings
are those of Persian galloon, two inches
or more in width, with some pretty floral
design running through the center on
tinsel ground. Some Of the colorings
exploited in these beltings are new and
most unusual, and the best Of them are
quite worthy of consideration. Gilt and
silver are prominent in all of these gal

are woven lovely geometrical designs in
dull reds and pinks and bright blues.

New Spring Hats.

The new spring hats are decidedly
smaller and the shapes are certainly
much more becoming than they have
been for many seasons past.
Indeed, the smartest modes may be
worn by elderly women with dignity.
A pretty hat in Tuscan straw-just a
round crown and narrow brim, trimmed
with black velvet ribbon and white wings
