THE CANNON MENACE.

Philadelphia North American
(Rep.): Let Cannon be attacked by
all means. But let the attack be
made along proper lines. We recog-
nize fully that Cannon and his con-
gressional career constitute Demo-
cratic asset and the heaviest handi-
cap which the Republican party has
to bear.
The North American is no blind
partisan. We can see in Cannon a
peril to the election of Taft. Yet,
whenever Mr.. Bryan assails Cannon
or any of Cannon's clique in the
right and not in the wrong way, we
shall approve his censure and up
hold his hands to the best of our
ability. Because whenever Bryan
does such work he is serving real Re-
publicanism and strengthening the
hands of Taft, Hughes and all the
other real Republicans who believe
in Rooseveltism.
There is no use to blind ourselves
to a danger before our eyes. There
is a sentiment that is not healthy
among the masses of Republican
voters 1t is not apathy. 1t is disgust.
1t is the always vicious what is the
use" feeling. 1t is confined to no
state or section. It is as strong on the
Pacific coast as in Illinois; as strong
in New York as in the balliwick of
La Toilette. It is wrong, but none
the less it is strong.

is FOR TIE SOLID
TICKET - "

"A chain is no stronger than its
weakest chain" ! :t
Every time we defeat a Republic
an candidate we weaken our party
just that much- Whether it be gov
arnor, congressman or any other can
didate. I can't see for the life of me
why we should not vote the straight
Republican ticket, particularly so
led of such able and talented men and
when it is so much superior to the
mocratic ticket, not excepting gov
.ernor. Admitting that Governor
Johnson is better looking and per-
haps better talker than our Jacob
son, yet, Jake's ability, honesty, en-
ergy and aggressiveness more than
overbalance all the virtues claimed
by our governor. Honesty is the
greatest virtue man can possess.
Nicholas Rowe said: "Yet heaven
that made me honest, made me more
than ever king did when he made a
lord What great feats did Cover
nor gJ Johnson ever perform while in
the state senate or while governor?
Compare the past records of the two
men. and see which is the greater?
Take away the railroad and tax leg
islation, for which credit belongs to
our Republican legislature, though
credit is claimed for it by our COVER
nor, and the natural development of
our mining resources and what is
there left for our "non-partisan"
governors record, excepting his
chautauqua lectures for which he re-
ceived large sums of money and to
which he devoted nearly his entire
time instead of to his office as he
should have done. He gets his salary
for attending to the duties of COVER
nor, but his effort has been exerted
in firing the old soldiers and filling
their places with Democrats.

Mix This Simple, Helpful Recipe
at Home and Try 1t, Anyway.
Get from any prescription pha. ma
cist the following:
Fluid Extract DandelioD, one half
ounce; Compound kargon, one ounce:
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces
Shake we'll in bottle and take a.
teasponful dose after each meal and at
bedtime
The above is considered as the most
certain prescription ever written to
relieve Backache, Kidney Trouble,
Weak Bladder and all sorts of Urinary
difficulties. This mixture acts prompt
.ly on the eliminative tissues of the
Kidneys, enabling them to filter and
strain the uric acid and other waste
matter from the blood which causes
rheumatism.
Some persons who suffer with the
Affections, NAV not feel iuclined to
place much confidence in this simple.
mixture, yet those who have tried it
say the results are simply surprising,
the relief being effected without the
slightest injury to the stomach or other
organs.
Mix some and give it trial. 1t
certainly comes highly recommended.
1t is the prescription of an eminent
authority, whose entire reputation, it
is said, was blished by it.
"A druggist here at home, when asked
stated that he could either supply the
ingredients or mix the prescription for
our readers, also recommends it as
harmless. Il. ss 3.s9E

CANNON THE DICTATOR.

Supporters of Speaker Cannon
who try to make the public believe
that the latter was in sympathy with
the sentiment for tariff revision and
several other important measures
evidently lose sight of the fact that
for several years past he did all he
could to delay matters and only
yielded to the appointment of COM
mittee on tariff revision. when it be-
came apparent that further resist
ance on his part might mean disaster
to his political ambition. 1t cannot
be said that congress was hostile to-
ward important measures recon-
mend by the president-quite the
oontrary-but it was handicapped
by Speaker Cannon's way of run
ming things in the house. When the
president announced that he had ex-
hausted his influence and power in
endeavoring to secure emergency
currency legislation and that con-
gress might as well adjourn and go
home, Mr.. Cannon and his immediate
hackers got cold feet. They were
afraid to take the presidents advice
and face their constituency without
having complied, to some extent at
least, with his recommendations.
The president did his best to push
legislation beneficial to the country;
Mr.. Cannon was equally active to
retard it. The president had the
warm and active support Of the peo-
pie behind him and Mr.. Cannon re-
luctantly yielded at last under the
strong pressure OF public opinion.
That's the story In nutshell, St.
Peter Free Press.

REPUBLICANS BEAT THEIR OWN
BRAINS OUT.

In a recent issue Of the St. Paul
organ of Gov. Johnson, I find the fol-
lowing luminous editorial utterance:
1.-THE question before the voters Of
Minnesota is just this: Will Johnson
or jacobson make the best governor?
The question of party symbols may
zen who does his real duty will go
directly to the men themselves.
These two men, then, are the real
issue before the voters of Minnesota,
and they are the only issue. The
only practical question involved in
the campaign is a choice between
Jacobson and Johnson"
It is said that there are sixteen
hundred state employees drawing SAL
aries from the treasury or fat fees
from the people, who owe their posi-
tion to the favor of the governor and
his cabinet.
Even if it were true that the only
issue is "a choice between Jacobson
and Johnson" no Republican need
shrink the comparison. But it may
occur to some sincere Republicans
who have heretofore voted for john
son on personal grounds and are
asked to- do so again, that they are
helping to season club for beating
out their own political brains that
they are helping build up an active
arrogant, STAINLESS Democratic ma
chine throughout the state, which is
working day and night to undermine
the Republican party, and to defeat
Republican candidates on the ma
tional ticket for congress and the
legislature.
Fellow Republicans! There is a
very important and a very serious
political issue involved in "the choice
between jacobson and Johnson

SPEAKER CANNON AN AUTOCRAT

Irvine L. LenrOOt, who won the
Republican nomination for the seat
in congress from the eleventh Wis
consin district, has issued a state
ment attacking Speaker Cannon for
his autocratic methods and scoring
him particularly for his opposition
to the Roosevelt policies looking in
to the preservation of the natural
resources: Of the country.
Speaker Cannon, according to
Lenroot, is opposed to all real pro-
gress.''' After relating incidents
showing the speakers alleged
method of blocking legislation by
refusing to allow bills to be reported
that did not suit his fancy, Mr.. Len
root says: .a
t'The fact is that the Roosevelt
policies are inextricably interviewer
with the movement for the conserva-
tion Of our natural resources. The
adjustment Of railroad rates must Of
necessity go hand in hand with the
development Of our natural streams.
and these in turn depend on the
5preservati tion Of our forests. :

JACOBSON VS.. JOHNSON.

Anyone who thinks that J. F.
Jacobson cannot control his own in
discussion with Gov. ]. A. Johnson
on the matter of state affairs is likely
to change his opinion after hearing
Mr.. Jacobson speak. The editor of
this paper listened with a great deal
of interest to Gov. Johnson's key
note speech at Montevideo. While
not convinced, we were impressed
with the ingenuity of the speaker.
We felt that the uniformed and un-
critical would fall easy victims to
the many delusions hidden all
through the address. Realizing that
Mr.. Johnson undoubtedly is one of
the greatest oratical slight-of-hand
performers in the country today, we
feared that the straightforward and
honest "Jake" was not equal to the
task of exposing the tricks. But we
have changed our mind. You have
heard how easy it is when you know
how. Well, Mr.. Jacobson knows how.
Throwing the searchlight of truth
and correct information on the state
ments of the governor, Mr.. Jacobson
proceeded to analyze them, and
when he was through if there was
anything left of Mr.. Johnson's s
speech, it wasn't worth preserving.
The greater portion of Mr.. Johnson's s
speech was devoted to refuting the
charge preferred by Mr.. Jacobson
that there had been a great deal Of
extravaganza in the matter of spend
ing the states money during the
of the present COVER
nor. Mr.. Jacobson not only proved
the truth of his charge, but also con-
vinced his hearers of the political ex-
pediency of this line of attack. And
further, Mr.. Jacobson not only
clearly and emphatically declared
himself on such issues as county op-
tion, iron ore, etc., but he challenged
anyone having heard Mr.. Johnson s
speech to state where that gentleman
stood on those issues. If Mr.. Jacob
son continues to argue along the
lines of his speech in Montevideo,
and he will, there can be no ques-
tion of his election November g.
