What the Democratic party did
the last time IL was In power:
Senator T. p. Gore, Democrat, CT
Dallas, Texas. in 1896, said:
THE trouble with the Democratic
party is 1t is a party of statesmen
without craftsmanship, patriots with
out patriotism, heroes, without hero
ism. Their policy bsgets farmers
without farms: laborers without
labor, freemen without freedom. -
''The Fifty-second Congress had a
Democratic majority of 14S, and IL IL
redeemed single pledge, observed
single promise, kept a single COM
mand, or discharged a single obliga-
ton made TO the people of the Unit
ed States will quit the stump and
retire from the canvass. ."
THE Fifty-second Congress vas
elected on retrenchment and econ
omy, the free coinage of silver and
the repeal OF the Mckinley Law. In
the matter of economy that Congress
exceeded the Republican 81 900, 00o.-
900 Congress by S40,000,000."
So much for the Fifty-second Con
gress. What OF the Fifty-third when
Doth Senate and House were Demo

Well, they gave US the Wilson-GoF-
man tariff which brought a deficit
every year: which closed our mills,
threw millions out of work, reduced
the wages of those left with jobs
giving the farmer no market for his
products and brought ruin and mis-
cry TO the entire country. Do We
want repetition of that Democratic
period?

Anti-Ring Ticket in Green County.
Eastern Recorder.

Eastern Recorder
The Recorder feels very much elat-
ed over the many expressions we hear
on the street corners about our coun-
ty ticket that our party nominated
here a few days ago. To illustrate,
we heard a gentleman that votes the
Democratic ticket mostly tell one
of the Democratic nominees that he
had heard of five Democrats that was
going to vote for one of our nominees
and that in the same neighborhood.
1t matters not what your party af-
filiations have been in the past, you
can vote the anti-ring ticket in
Greene County this year solely to
beat the courthouse ring crowd and
to get our county in better condition
financially. If you love your county
come to her rescue now.
Vote the anti-ring ticket in Greene
County and thereby free Greene
County from the iron hand of few
Democratic crossroads would be
leaders. You owe it to your chill
dren to vote for clean politics in
Greene County, and vote for the
consolidated ticket means that every
man shall have an equal show.

THE STATE LEGISLATURE

Now that the returns are in on the
legislative election the political com
plexion of that body is of interest.
The mex legislative assembly will
consist of $50 members-49 in the senate
and IOl in the house, the last legisla-
ture having increased the senate mem
bership two ano the house membership
five. In the senate there will be 43 re-
publicans and 6 democrats, and in the
house 80 republicans and II democrats.
YAsInearlas can be judged at this time
th%e!house1..will have a large progressive
majority over the1 stalwarts and will
undoubtedly elect their speaker.
By the same token, for the first time
in the history of the state the senate
will in all probability be controlled by
the progressive element of the republi-
can party, the political standing of the
membership being % progresslves, II
stalwarts, 6 democrats and 5 whose
affiliations are not known here. Should
these five all 60 to the stalwarts the
two wings of the republican party would
beia tie and in that case it is almost
certain that a majority of the democrats
would vote withi the progressives, but
this, of course, would not apply on all
votes. 1t is confidently believed, how
ever, that the progressives and demo
Gratis would vote together for the pass
age of desirable bills which make their
bi-annual appearance only to die IN the
senate steering committee, and there
now seems a fair chance for the enact
ment of much desired legislation, such
as the antl-pass bill and others of like

Taft and the Immigrants.

81 see they soon learn American
ways" remarked President Taft when
he visited Ellis island the other day
and saw a group Of immigrants clap
ping their hands at sight of the presi-
dent Of the United States. There is
more in the presidents remark than
the mere words indicate. In the main
the people who come to this country
from Europe at a rate of more than a
million a year do learn American
way in short order. 1t is only the riff
raft element which fails to learn Amer
lean ways, and that element stops and
stays for the most part in the city Of
New York, in Philadelphia, Chicago
and a few other large cities.
Many of these immigrants come over
to America in the hope of becoming
Americans. Most Of those who come
with that intention fixed in their minds
become good Americans. Even though
the original immigrant finds it impos-
sible to adapt himself altogether to
our ideas and institutions his children
grow up in the American environment
and make good American citizens.
This is particularly true of the immi-
| grant families which settle on farms
and devote themselves to agriculture.
but it is by no means untrue of thou
sands of other families which engage
in mercantile business and the manual
trades. They soon learn American
ways and become AmericaniZed.

DEMOCRATIC LANDSLIDE.

There is little that was not expected in
the results of Tuesdays elections. The
republican party had a rebuke coming
for its betrayal of the people in the
matter of tariff revision and because of
it's relationship with predatory business,
and Tuesdays rebuk" comes.on schedule
time, with crushing force.
A republican majority in the house of
forty-four has been turned to a demo-
cratic majority about as large. Legisla-
tive elections show democratic gains in
the senate, and beyond doubt the
scepter of power will drop from the
power of the old guard in that body.
Democratic governors have been elect
ed in New York, New Jersey, Connect
cut, Ohio, North Dakota and probably
in Iowa. In Tennessee the democratic
old guard becomes corrupt, has been de-
heated by republican supported by self
respecting democrats. In Nebraska a
republican governor has been elected,
almost entirely on the local issue of
county option and the personality of the
democratic candidate, who was bolted
by Bryan.
The most spectacular fight in the list,
of course, was that in New York.
where Roosevelt, rather than Stimson,
his candidate. is tn beaten man. It is
a fitting rebuke to Terrible Teddy" fol
the hypocrisy of the Saratoga platform
and his inconsistency in laudlng, in the
same breath, a Beveridge and a Logde.
An interesting NANTES alton was the
large socialist vote in many places
which IN Milwaukee resulted on the
election to congress of Victor L. Berger
the Wisconsin socialist leader, an able
true-hearted man who cannot fail to be
a power for good in congress-.

Even the Cat Game Back.

Well. Walter Wel!man tried to fy
across the Atlantic ocean by dirigible
balloon. ana though he failed to reach
the other side. the world mast give
him credit for the daring attempt;
also the world should congratulate
him and his six companions, including
five men and Il cat. upon being picked
up at SEA and returned to land by q
ship of the wave. One thing of genu-
ine value appears to have been dem
onstrated by the Wellman f1ight-to
wit, that it is impracticable, if not i'm
possible. to cross the ocean by means
Of a gas bag air vessel. Perhaps some
day the aeroplanist may achieve such
a flight. given a stormless sea for a day
or two and flying at the rate of some
thing more than a mile a minute. But
the big dirigible presents too large an
area of resistance to the air for really
rapid flight and is helpless in a storm.
Let us suppose Mr.. Wellman had
succeeded in crossing. What would
have been gained thereby? or course
the head of the expedition and his COM
p%anions. including the cat, would have
been heroes of the hour and of the
year. Their names would have gone
down into sporting history as those of
the first (and probably the LAST men

loon. And would that feat have been
of any real benefit to humanity? We

Census Padding.

1t is charged that several cities have
returned population figures consider
ably in advance Of their real popula-
ton. 4 little object lesson will illus
trate the f~ooliShness. not to speak of
the criminality, of such a trick. Sup
pose the city of Lobsterville has sup
piled the thirteenth census with fig
ures showing a population of 100000
when in reality the place has only
$4,000. Suppose these figures are ac-
cepted and published and the fraud is
not found out promptly. In 1920 the
fourteenth census will be taken. Other
enumeratorS, quite probably honest
ones, will make the returns to the bu-
reau at Washington. Suppose Lob
sterville is known to have been grow
ing rapidly in population since 1910.
But the 1920 figures show only $4,000
| people. What about the 1910 census
showing 100000? Then. assuredly. the
fraud will out" the same as murder.
There are individuals in this world
who pad their returns. They want to
appear richer and more important than
they really are. But sooner or later
the padding is discovered. and then
the world laughs at the guilty mes.
Whether you are a man or a munich,
pality. it is futile and fatuous to try to
work q bluff on the general public, to
make a false showing of your assets
