rhe Congressional Candidates And
The Issue In This District.

Inasmuch as the congressional election
is but little more than a month off interest
naturally begins to center IN the candi-
dates presented to the people by the two
political parties in this district. Both
are well known. personally. to great
many voters. VIM G. Brown was the
Democratic candidate in 1906 and made
a splendid race. considering the condi-
tons existing at that time. when the Re-
publican party was united and aggressive
and the Democratic party divided into
warning factions. He is popular
progressive business man and lawyer,
but more particularly farmer and real
estate owner. His position on public
questions is defined in his platform and
will be elaborated IN his speeches. He
is opposed. above everything else, to the
vicious features of the new tariff law.
which is admittedly unfair IN its workings
and framed for the benefit of certain
trusts and special interests.
On the other hand Congressman
Strrgiss, for wnom we have no unkind
word personally. is typical representa-
tive of the Reactionary. Stand-pat wing
of the Republican party. wing that no
longer controls the destinies of his party
organization, He was and is wheel in
the Cannon Aldrich machine which
| formulated and enacted the tariff law
which the country is repudating along
with the men who made it, 1t is
| reasonable to assume he will again
support Cannon for Speaker. if reelected.
contrary. He belongs to the "Old
Guard"
| The Tariff Robbery reached its culmin-
alton in the Payne Aldrich bill, but that
was the straw that broke the camel's
back, The country is in revolt The
special elections in New York and Mass
achusetts districts, where Democratic
landslides were substituted for big Re-
publican ma1orities. were the first
concrete illustrations of the trend of
public sentiment. Vermont was another
and the political revolution in Maine
capped the climax. The old Republican
Machine is breaking up and disintegrat-
ing as fast as the Wing party went to
pieces. The people of this district must
do their duty to help elect man who
will represent them rather then the
manufacturing industries that have
long taken toll through exorbitant
tariffs.
VIM. G. Brown Is that kind of man.
Mr. Sturgss has shown conclusively by
his record that he is exactly the reverse.
He is not bad man On the other
hand he is simply welded to vicious
policy that has enriched few at the
expense of the public. The country is
repudating that policy and the msn
responsible for its maintenance. Mr..
| Sturgiss is one of them and he will and
should go. along with the others

Handsome Tribute From a True
Soldier.

Hor. Samuel r. Van SAINT, Com

the Republic, paid the following tribute
TO the veterans of the Confsderacy IN his
recent annual address to his organization
After commending joint reunions of the
Blue and the Gray, Commander Van
SAINT went on to say;
Comrades we were the victors, and we
can afford to be magnanimous to our
old foes 1t is easy for the victor to for
give. but when the vauquished absolves
himself from all bitterness he has truly
gained the most cherished trait of no.

triumphant. They were defeated, their
cause lost and they returned to homes

Welded to these adverse conditions-not
SO with them. Bravely as they fought
during the war they now fight the bat
ties of life. and the splendid growth and
development Of the South since the close
of the war is the South's grandest and
most enduring monument. United as
we are now, our country is destined to
make new era of progress. We have
by our united efforts, advanced to the
highest pinnacle of fame. and become a
mighty world power with our influence

joice that our Uuion is one and indivis-

Senator Julian c. Burrows in a speech
delivered at Port Huron, Mich. made
the following statment: Now gentlemen,
if you would straighten out this tariff
question in your minds, you should get
away from the criticism of the metro
poiltan press and stop reading the maya
zines of the country that are giving so
much space trying to break up the Re
publican party, Go home and decide
this question alone with your wives and
your children at your fireside and you
will decide right" And they did decide
right, as the recent returns will show
that IN the primary held in the state of
Michigan Mr., Burrows was defeated by
5000 majority. Burrows and those of
his kind would not have the people read
or think. but want them to vote blindly,
but this age has passed and a new order
obtained. The husbands have no doubt
consulted their wives and the good
housewives hav told them that the living

penny, for the rainy day. cannot be
saved. This high cost of living is
produced by a tariff revision upward.
Burrows voted for this kind of revision
and the good intelligent voters of his
state have rightly retired him to private
citizenship. Congressman Sturgiss also
voted for this same revision aud the voters
of this district will register their opinion
on the Sth of this coming November.
