MICS have ceased operations altogeth-
er. Holders of bonds and mortgages
are attempting to coerce and frighten
the people to stand by the old wing
of the party that has given them
the rcns of government. But the
American people are too Independent
TO be coerced when they know what
is being done. The American laborcr
and farmer and the million OF small
business men would rather sacrifice
what must be sacrificed now to save
the principles of fair government
No man who stands for Taft rule
and for Cannon rule is worthy to hold
any office in this republic. lie is the
man who is willing to turn this gov

of the mighty combines that have
held American laborers and business
men by their throats.
The principles Of democracy have
always been right and whether those
are adopted as being demo
cratic or progressive or by whatever
name, they are the principles upon
which fair government depends. These
are times that call for patriotism
above party loyalty.

PATRIOTISM SHOULD STAND
ABOVE PARTY LOYALTY.

President Taft and his administra-
ton have stepped down from the
high horse they have been riding
and have condescended to appoint n
postmaster from the ranks of the in
surgents.
Newspaper readers remember dur.
ine the last congress that insurgents
could get nothing They were denied
political patronage. Efforts were made
10 discredit them with their home
people by robbing them OF their
prestige with the departments. Be
cause Charley Carter would not vote
with Cannon he was removed from
the Indian affairs committee and his
home people think thousand times
more OF him because he refused to
bow to such men. There is glory for
Carter In the humiliation that the
administration attempted to heap up
on him. LaFollette and Cummings
and other big men of the nation
were stung at every opportunity pre-
sented 10 the representatives of the
special interests to sting them. But
those fellows kept up their fight, and
today they have Won. Cannon Is a.
certain of defeat as he allows his
name to be presented TO the next
house for speaker. The next presi-
dental nominee OF the republican
party will be a progressive. No one
sees taht more clearly than Roose-
welt and he IS preparing for the
nominating convention.
The republican party has kept itsct
IN power by two plans. One has
been to purchase votes outright, and
the other has been to coerce men
10 vote its ticket. LaborerS have
been cOerCed by threats 10 throw
them out Of work Business mcn
have been Coercod by threats TO ruin
their business and today the people
are facing a powerful money Strin-
gency for no other reason than that
the old trust element Of the rspub-
Iican party is being oyerthrosn. That
IS the element that has made the
steel trust and the leather trust and
every other trust so rich that they
nave been ablo absolutely TO control
the United States government
through the medium of the republi-
can party. But today the public con
science is aroused and that element
Of the party will be overthroWn.

VITAL FACTS ARE PRESENTED
Cost Of Getting Grain TO Market Mate

by Water-9enefits Distributed All
over the Country.

You may not know it-you probably
don't-but II is matter OF Importance
to you whether the waterways of the
United States are Improved or not
and this is true no matter who you
are, what your business is. or what
part of the country you live in. 1t
may be that you are farmer and you
tell me that it IS nonsense to say
that it can make any difference to
you whether the waterways OF the
country are improved or not. because
you live away out west, miles away
from any river which is navigable now
or ever will be.
Well, | admit that it IS not as easy
TO see as the grain elevator down at
your railway station, but the benefit
IS there just the same-a real. sure
enough, dollars -and-cents benefit Wa
terways have already been OF tremen-
dous advantage to the farmers OF the
country and their further improve
ment will put more money into your
pockets and those of your neighbors.
Take grain for an illustration. A
large part of the grain raised In the
country is shipped away from the
place where it is grown. some for use
In the eastern states and some for ex-
port to Europe. Under these condi.
tions the price OF grain is not fixed
at the nearest railway station. Your
wheat, for instance, is worth just what
It will bring In Liverpool-less the
cost of getting 1t there. You can see
at once that it makes a whole lot Of
difference to you how much It costs
to send your grain to New York or
Liverpool-and there's where tbs
waterway comes in.

TEXAS STATE FAIR
BEGINS OCTOBER IS
Cneat Preparations Being Made
For Twenty-Fifth Meeting.
SUPERB IMPROVEMENTS,
Coliseum, Industrial Arts Building
Kennel and Dairy Structures Among
Those Erected This Year.

Dallas, Texas.-In making its
twenty-fifth annual bow to the CHI
zenry of the Southwest the manage
ment of the State Fair OF Texas takes
pride in the announcement that for the
exposition of 1910, which begins Octo
ber 10 and continues sixteen days
greater preparations are being made
than for any previous meeting.
1t is a herculean task-that Of pre-
pairing for each annual event of the
State Fair of Texas. Not only do
President f. j. Kiest and his directors
contribute their time and effort gratis
for the benefit of the institution, but
they do not hesitate to spend money
out of their own pockets for its sue
cess. Why? Because they realize that
the State Fair of Texas now ranks at
the head of institutions of its kind in
the country But. in order to keep up
with the marvellous development OF
Texas and the entire Southwest, it is
necessary to eXpend a vast sum OF
money each year for permanent i'm
provements the installation of new
departments and to keep the already
superb State Fair plant in good repair.
Task a Vast One.
Few people realize the vast amount
of labor there Is to this task of getting
in readiness for each annual meeting.
President Kiest has divided this into
three parts under the head of improve
ments, entertainments and exhibitions.
Assisted by his directors he adopts a
general plan, covering each depart.
ment and prepares a budget for ex.
penses from that of erecting a hun.
dred thousand dollar building to that
of the prize to be awarded in the ex
hibition of women's handiwork.
Secretary Sydney Smith and Assist
ant Secretary Ben E. Cabell are in di.
rect charge of the details of all i'm
provement work Both are well known
to State Fair patrons. The former has
been with the Fair almost continuously
since its initial meet. He is deemed
the best authoriay on State Fair top
cs in America and 1t is no unusual
thing for him to receive a letter from
Virginia, New York or Washington
asking for the details OF the organi-
cation of the presentlState Fair of Tex
as. Many Fairs have been modelled
after the Dallas plan, and among them
may be mentioned the Louisiana State
Fair.

New Haven. June 14-The bill pro- viding for the appropriation of s1,250,- 900 for the erection of new post of flee in this city, which was amended to contain that figure in the Senate through the efforts of Senator Bulke- ley. was passed by the Senate yester- day and now goes to the House of Representatives for it's action. Sena- tor Bulkeley has been very strenuous in securing the passage of the bill. There seems little doubt now but that it will become a law as it's passage in the House seems very probable. Con gressmen Sperry and Tilson will work with all their might in it's behalf and as they are regulars will have the support of Speaker Cannon. it is fig ured, and with this strength back of them it is believed the bill will be carried.

Say goodbye to your cOrns the very first time you use TIZ You will never know you have a corn, bunion or callous, or sweaty, tired, swollen, aching feet any more. It's just won- derful the way the pain vanishes. Rub the corn-hammer 1t with your fist if you wish-no more pain after TIZ than if there had never been a blemish on your feet. Doesn't that sound good to you? Doesn't it? Then read this:
 s'The corns on either of my toes were as large as the tablets you make to cure them. Today there is no sign of corns on either foot and no sore- ness. It's an up-tO-date GOdsend."- Sam. A. Hoover, Progress, N. c.
 Just use TIZ. It's not like any, thing else for the purpose you ever heard of It's the only foot remedy ever made which acts on the princl- pal of drawing out all the poisonous exudations which causes sore feet. Powders and other remedies merely clog up the pores. TIZ cleans them out and keeps them clean. It works right off. You will feel better the very first time it's used. Use it a week and you can forget you ever had sore feet. There is nothing on earth that can compare with it.
