The President and Congress.

Speaking at the New York State
Fair on September 18th. former Presi-
dent Roosevelt said:
The president OF the United States.
Mr.. Taft, has served his country hon.
orably and uprightly in many posi-
tions-as Judge, as governor Of the
Philippines. as secretary Of war. and
now as president-for to him and the
congress acting with him we owe the
creation Of tariff commission. the
adoption Of maximum and minimum
tariff law treaties with foreign pow.
ers. the proper treatment Of tho
Philippines under the tariff. the In
crease in the efficiency Of the inter
state commerce law. the beginning Of
national legislative program provid-
ing for the exercise of the taxing
power in connection with corpora
tions doing an interstate business. a
postal savings bank bill. the consti-
tuition of a commission to report a
remedy for overcapitalization In con-
nection with the issue of stocks and
bonds"
It's a good record worthy Of the
commendation. No congressional
record surpasses 1t for accomplish
ment of useful and progressive re-
suits. There is one way and only one
way to make certain the continuance
of Legislation for the public good and
that Is to return a Republican major
ity to the next house Of representa-
tives.

Time to Pause and Reflect.

Every Republican should consider
that the Democratic party cannot win
this year through any merits of its
own-performed or professed. Demo
cratic victory II 1t comes, will come
not because of Democratic strength
but because of Republican division
and consequent weakness. Is 1t worth
while to learn over again the costly
lessons Of the past for the sake of a
grudge or a disagreement that even
though honest and sincere may we'll
be laid aside and taken up after elec-
ton!
