then by all means you should vote
for Taft.
But if your interests lie with your
fellow workmen who are striving, like
you, to protect themselves against
the entertainments of organizations
like the National Association OF
Manufacturers, and against the at
lacks of such union haters as Van
Cleave, Parry and Post, then you are
certainly doing yourself and your
Fellows an injury by lining up with the
Van Cleaves, Parrys and POSTAL
of whom are commencing the Chicago
platform and boosting for Taft ana
Sherman
Under which flag, Mr.. Union Man
Are you with the unions, or are
you with the National Association Of
Manufacturers?
Are you with your brothers, or ara
you with the men who are trying to
send your brothers to Jail for the
crime" of fighting for your best in
terests?
The union that benefits you, or the
political party that uses you?
1t is up to you to make choice
Mr.. Union Man.
Under which flag?

WHAT is 1T?

There seems to be something about
the work of managing great rail-
road property that forces a man out
of touch with the people.
What is it?
One would think that by this time
the railroad managers mad grown
wise to the fact that the old days
are gone forever, and that the people
have determined to control the great
highways of commerce. 1t would
seem that after all they have bumped
up against the railroad managers
would realize that the old days Of
railroad control, of railroad bossism
and of railroad contempt for the
wishes of the people are gone for
ever
But it seems that they haven't yet
had enough, and that they feel like
taking another round in the ring.
Instead of gracefully yielding to the
inevitable they treat the people with
contempt and actually seem to look
for opportunities to increase the
feeling against themselves.
The refusal of the railroads to
grant a reduced rate to the Bryan
notification on the pitiful plea that
they were compelled to live up to
the 2-cent fare law deceived no one.
1t was merely an opportunity to get
even," and the railroad managers were
not of sufficient mental calibre to over
look it. They have already announced
= reduced rate to the state fair, but
they refused to grant a similar rate
to the Bryan notification, although
they granted reduced rate to the
Taft notification.
Perhaps the railroad managers want
to try conclusions to a finish with
the people. Perhaps they want to nag
and irritate until the people exercise
the right of eminent domain and
take over the railroads, not at the
figure set upon them by the present
arrogant owners, but at the figures
the people know to be just and right.
II the railroad managers are anxious
for this sort of conclusion, certainly
they are taking the best possible
| method of reaching it.
Some of these days railroad will
| fall into the hands of men who will
try to conduct it in the interests of
| the public as well as in the interest
OF the stockholders and bondholders.
When that day comes that particular
railroad is going to make a great
hit with fair-minded people.

thirsty nothing would satisfy me but
a cup Of strong, cold coffee.
Coffee was my invariable drink for
breakfast, with a doUghnut or piece Of
toast. 1 was all the time consulting the
doctor, taking digestive preparations
to help the stomach. and cathartics to
move the bowels, frequently having at

which would necessitate calling the doc

convinced that something must be done

A few months later. in June. or 1906.
she returned to her fathers horne and
made preparations for her marriage, TX
