BLUE and GRAY
TO Be UNITED, IF THE COMMANDEROF
CA HAS SAY.

Atlantic City, N. j., Sept. ee.
Comprehensively reviewing the work
of the Grand Army of the Republic
in the nation for the past year, dur
ing which he has acted as its head.
Commander-in-chief SamueER. Yam
SAINT, today, addressed the delegates
to the forty-fourth National En-
campment, as well with an eye to
the future good that the great organi-
cation might accomplish, as upon
the notable achievements of its past.
The Commanders Chief express
ed himself as particularly grati6ed
at the increasing determination Of
the "BEue and the Gray" He
voiced his pleasure at the cordial re-
ception giyel him during his recent
official visit to the Southern depart
ments, not only from the former
Union soldiers, but from ex-Confed-
crates.
In all cities, when possible he
said Il urged joint meetings of the
Blue and the Gray. We had many
gatherings of this character, and no
more loyal and patriotic sentiments
were ever uttered than by the men
who fought on the other side.
Are you not pleased to learn
that our comrades are living in peace
and harmony with out late enemiesf
This is as It should be. Both armies
composed of brave men and they
should and do mutually respect each
other. We of the North can testify
that no drawer troops were ever mar
shalled for conflict than our late enc
mies-and we now realize that no
men ever made greater sacrifices for
what they believed to be right than
than our former foes. -

IT is a noble thought of the COM
mander-in-chief of the Grand Army
of the Republic, that hereafter there
be but one annual national encamp-
ment of all veterans of the Civil war
Union or Confederate. Both North
and South has its glorious memories,
records of unextinguishable brilliancy
that will live as long as American
history's read or tradition revered.
The men who engaged in these
stupendous battles are rapidly de-
creasing in number, bent with age
and crowned with honors. Well may
they devote their remaining
years to the cultivation of that spirit
of fraternal affection and unity which
has grown out of the great conflict.
One camp fire for all, the blue and
the gray. 1t is a splendid concepti-
on, and would furnish spectacle
and lesson in exalted ideals and
high purposes for the world and the
nation. Next year will see the pass
ing of half century since the in
ception of hostilities, so bravely and
fearfully fought out and with such
splendid outcome. 1t would be an
apt time for the consummation ofthe
commander-in-chief's idea, when all
the old warriors might meet as one
great army, the pride and the in
spiration ofthe Union.

been operators in the market willing
to encourage such an opportunity for
the purpose Of picking up cheap
stocks. Some Of our difficulties are
being taken altogether too seriously. =
But, strangely, the stock market
took a jump upward following the
Maine election, at which the Demo-
crats won a sweeping victory, and
the Republican press, after explain
ing that the victory was not d VIC
tory for Democracy and an endorse
ment of It's position on the tariff but
due to factional lighting in the Re-
publican ranks, was hard put to it to
endeavor to make IL appear that
Wall street is with" the Demo
cratic party. After al along shout
ing that a Democratic victory would
mean the paralyzing Of business, a
democratic victory followed by ris-
ing stock market has rather taken
the wind out Of their sails. Since
the Roosevelt panic of 1907 the Re-
publican party has not been in a
very good position to claim to be the
party OF prosperity.
Mr.. cIews confirms what has long
been believed by manv people, viz,
that Wall street is not above precip-
itatiug panic, or attempting to do
so, at any time, or under any party,
when there is ultimate profit for
Wall street in SO doing. When
knowledge of the manner in which
panics are made to order by the
financial sharks of the metropolis be-
comes more generaIthe wal street
scare" will have lost its potency.

Capt E. f. Eisenbarth of Marietta
was the only bidder at the sale Of
the property Of the Pittsburg s Gin
cinnati Packet Line at Pittsburg
Wednesday morning and the sale
was postponed until October 10,
when another attempt will be made
to dispose of the property.
Captain Eisenbarth bid IS, 800 on
the Steamer Virginia hut his offer
was not accepted. The Queen City
and the wharyes Of the company at
at Pittsburg and Cincinnati were
also offered but no bids were receiy-
ed.
The affairs of the company are in
bad shape, as the business on the
river for the past two or three years
was losing proposition for these
boats, the largest on the upper Ohio.

GENEROSITY Or ALDMCH.

Republican candidates for Congress
boast Of the generosity Of Senator
Aldrich in permitting large number
of articles to go on the free list in
the new tariff law. And Democratic
candidates are telling what the free
list really consists Of. Some Of the
things that the generous Rhode Is
land statesman permitted on the
free list we're joss-sticks, bladder,
dried blood and horse hair. Then
there are birds eggs, lemon juice,
turtles and junk. Also acons, bones,
ashes, safFer, catgut, fossils, Brazilian
pebbles and oakum.

TARIFF INCREASES PRICES.

Prof. j. P. Norton, of Yale univer-
sity, declares that the increased
proportionate out put of gold" is not
the principal cause of increased
prices. Prices in this country, under
protection, have advanced so per
cent more than in England, under
free trade, he says. In all countries
under the gold standard, the out
put Il gold must operate uniformly.
Therefore, Prof Norton concludes,
there must be some special cause at
work in this country. He suspects it
is the Payne-Aldrich tariff law.

The democrats of this county have
good reason to be proud of the ticket
they have named to be voted upon
at the November election. Seldom
has so strong ticket been nominal
ed by any party in Mason county.
1t is composed of men who possess in
the highest degree the confidence of
the people of this county, regardless
of political Ieanings, and who will,

support this ticket regardless of any
minor elements that may enter into

EXPENSIVE HORSE sHOENC.

One hundred and forty dollars for
street car tickets; s2s7.6e for
horseshoeing, s4so.55 for soap and
brushes! These are a few of the
small expenditures Of the state de-
partment Of the government in 1900.
The horseshoeing item is gem as q
sample Of the much boosted Taft
policy of "cut-to-the-quick" &C.
onomy. The item Of 1887. ee refers
to the shoeing of four horses for one
year!

THE PASSING OF TAWNEY.

Evidences daily multiply of polit-
ical unrest and revolution against the
system" which has made the
brazenly open robber tariff Of today
responsible for many glaring national
ills, now and for many years past.
These evidences come from all parts
of the Union, in primaries, elections,
conventions, utterances of the press,
organizations and public men. The
latest emphatic Reputation of this
comes from within the ranks of the
party which made it possible. 1t is
expressed in the defeat for re-non. :
nation of Congressman. A. lawn.
ey, of Minnesota, by Sidney Ander-
son, a young attorney representing
the : insurgent wing Of the party.
This is the more remarkable from
the fact that Tawney was backed by
a powerful machine, had served con-
tinuously in congress for nine terms,
and was assisted by the moral sup
port of President Taft in choosing
Minnesota as state from which to
read the insurgents out of the Repub-
lican party IA proceeding which,
by the way, the president hastily
renowned after the Maine election
by announcing the Federal pork bar
rel wonld hereafter be open to in
surgents and regulars alike.) But all
this did not save Tawney. He went
down under the overwhelming state
and national sentiment which has
crystalized under the reign Of Can
nonism. Tawney is the chairman Of
the Rules Committee of the House,
and among Cannon's supporters and
the standpatters crowd, second only
in influence to Cannon himself. He
has been one of the leading and most
persistent fighters for a high tariff,
and closely allied with the inter-
ests" which the last Republican
national platform says should be
guaranteed fair profit by robbing
the consumer. He goes down with
Others of the conspirators against
the common people in the interests
of the favored financial pirates of the
country. His defeat ought to send
SILVER up Uncle Joe's political spine;
likewise that of another of his chief
lieutenants, Col. Alexander, Of the
seth New York district, who has
long been a member Of the lower
house and is seeking reelection.

TAFT makes it plain that he hopes
and expects to secure denomination
for the Presidency.
This means that he does not even
yet see the point conveyed in the re-
turns of the recent elections. 1t is
evident to many that the President

The management of the County affairs during these years must have been satisfactory 10 the taN-p CTS, as there Is now te the credit of the County surplus of over nine thous- and dollars.
 There are matters of whichthe Conn ty Commissioners have tue entire Cndtkt, nNA lltt itatftktthStft tA Nltt iait comes largely within the scope of my duties as Shefitl, and Il is because of the business methods adopted and the practical management of chat iastitu- ton that the receipts from the jail have exceeded the expenses each year.
 In this connection, 1 an pleased to acknowledge that the hearty eo-epefa. ton of the County Commissioners and the efficient services ef Deputy Jailef Field have contributed largely to the success oi the jail.
 It is also true that the splendid ma. nagement of all the County affairs places our County government first among those of the State.
 If renominated and elected Sheriff, l shall endeavor to give Co the County the best efforts of which l am capable, and a service in line with the splendid achievement of the other departments of our County government.
