Questions For the Voter.

Mr.. Voter, tomorrow will you vote
for Taft and an assured amount of
confidence, upholding and joining hands
with the business interests of the coun-
try without which there can be no
prosperity or livelihood? Or will you
cast your vote for Bryan, man which
the business men of the country are
afraid of? A man with numerous
schemes for changes. but without
practical remedy for any of the faults
that he lays at the door of the re-
publican party and its policies, the pol
icies which he at one time SAID ne
was regreatful heir to. Mr.. worker.
Bryan may cajole you into thinking
that he is the only friend you have, but
that isn't getting US bread and butter.
When he strikes a blow at the very
vitals of the business of the country
in making you compete with the skill
and labor of your hands, against the
cheap labor and wages of the foreign
country. You came to this country to
improve your condition. Mr.. Working
man. Do you want Bryan TO bring the
conditions and wages for which you
worked in the old country, to this land
of ours? That's what you will be do
ing if you cast your vote for Bryan
tomorrow. Protective tariff means
protection TO you first. Mr. Wage Earn
err, by keeping the foreign competition
away from the articles made by you.

LOWELL.

So far as the public election is con-
cerned both the republicans and demo-
Gratis of the three Creek townships
closed the campaign last Saturday aft
ernoon and night. The republicans
held the boards in the afternoon and
the democrats at night. A large crowd
greeted them at both occasions, and
the speakers were given marked at
tention, as all our citizens noted for
intelligence, were anxious to hear both
sides discussed. The republican ora
tors were Hon. Edward H. Oman, con-
tsul general to Turkey; Senator A. j..
| Bowser of Chesterton and E. w. Wick
ey, candidate for representative of Lake
| county. All the speakers talked along
the same lines of all republican ora
| tors of this campaign, their arguments
| being full of sound logic, convincing
| and seemed to satisfy the minds of the
| most skeptical The democratic speak
er was to have been Judge Darroch,
| democratic candidate for congressman
! of the Tenth district, but Attorney Jo-
| seph Conroy of Hammond came in his
stead. Mr.. Conroy divided his address
| in four parts-national, state, county
and township-but for the fact that he
jumped from one subject to another
with such lightning rapidity he might
have made a great hit, for you know
Joe is quite a cute little fellow. He
talked some on the would-be economi-
cal democratic administration, how they
would lower taxes etc, but great
deal of his talk was an apology of his
own sad mistakes, flaying the repub-
lican administration, and throwing bou-
quets of a very ugly odor and color
at the Lake County Times, but the
most of his republican friends dowr
here are inclined to look on the mat
ter as a huge joke. for that is JUS
Joe you know. Mr. Conroy has a very
great faculty. of making the peopl,
laugh and would make a splendid cir
Gus clown if he would only dress fol
it. If the democrats get in in this
campaign he proposes to reduce coun
ty taxes by discharging all the com
petent lady clerks in the county cour
house and make the officials do all tn
work We would suggest that this i

Crown Point democrats, who jour

speak, returned greatly disappointed
as the candidate failed to make an ap-

about midnight. his train being delay

the finish of his great whirl wind cam

however, recognizes the wonderful
ability of Bryan as a speaker and cam

people instead of creating distrust, his

Crown Point Fumbled.

In ole of the best games of football
ever witnessed hereby the lovers of
the sport. the Hammond high school
defeated the local team by score of
6 to on Saturday afternoon. In
ground gaining the Crown Point team
far excelled the visitors and would
have undoubtedly won the game but
for the fact that Crown Point fumbled
the ball at critical stages of the game
and lost ground in this manner Time
and time again the local team held
their heavier opponents for downs
only to lose the ball on fumbles.
Crown Point was handicapped by the
absence of two of their best players
on account of being disqualified II
their studies. A return game is TO be
played at Hammond in two weeks
when Crown Point expects to win back
their lost laurels and get half Mel
son on the Lake County Times cup.
