Have the People Rule5?

Republican orators and Newspapers
are saying on the eve OF the congress
sional elections that the people have
really ruled through the Republican
party in congress during the last few
years. If they ruled at the special
session of congress why was the tar
iff on plain white goods, such as are
used by women and children i'm every
family, increased 80 per cent? If the
people had really been in control. is
it reasonable to believe they would
have placed a duty of 1O5 per cent on
women's wooden dress goods and at
the same time have PERM, ed unCu;
diamonds to come in uu;aNedr
it reasonable TO believe that if the
people had been in charge they would
have voted against 81 coo for cn.l-
dren's Fairgrounds anu $4,000 fol
Speaker Cannon'g automobiles
There is one Giy every to yeas
when the people really have matters
III their own hands. That day this
year is November s. There are a
few more quiries which should be
considered by voters before entering
the election booths:
If the people rule, why was the
tariff bill drawn so as to increase the
profits of the trusts and cost OF living
to the people?
II the people rule. why was it that
no income or inheritance tax law was
passed to force the millonaires to
bear their fair proportion of the bur
den of national taxation?
If the people rule. why don't they
get postal banks in every city instead
OF a mere promise of one for every

AMAZING GALL.

The most amazing, monumental
piece of gall connected with this cam.
paign is the fact that set of politi-
cal ringsters that have always been
wet an din favor of saloons, are re.
sponsible for them in this county. have
switched clear around and are not on
y claiming to be dry. but swearing
nat they are the only dry people in
the county; and accusing people of
being wet and in favor of saloons who
have always been dry and opposed the
saloons, and who in the years gone by
have fought this very gang of men on
this very question. Now nobody OBJ
jects to their being dry, or to their
having their views on the whiskey
question, but men WHO are sincere on
this question and have always held
and acted on dry principles do OBJ
ject to such dirty political cusses as
these hopping up in their faces and
accusing them of being just what
they themselves have always been.
and doubtless still are, at heart.
Beware of the man who changes his
views for the sake of political expedi-
ency. 1t is better to have men deal
with the whiskey question whose
views on the same are sincere and
which spring from themselves on an
honest consideration of it, and not
from men who change their views to
meet a political situation. Men who
change from this motive once may
change again. Men who can be in
duced TO change by the prospect of
getting office. may in office be Undue.
ed TO change by the prospect of get
ting something else; and when they
come to deliver the goods you may
get what they promised and you NAV
get just the reverse of what they
promised. Beware of the man who is
dry by resolution" and who thinks
it necessary to publish his affidavit to
that fact every day in the newspapers.
for fear, no doubt, the people will not
believe him, and will judge him by
what he has done and not what he
says Men are judged by deed and
not by words. Experience in the past
with these same gentlemen shows
that words may be broken, and usu-
ally are when they are opposed to the
political demands OF the hour.
Vote for men who can be trusted
whose word is as good as gold, and

|POR OLDTIME'SSAKE HE PUNCHES GUEST


 Philadelphia, December r.-(Special}-- boxer. who is known to all the local fight fans as "the only" Riddle, had a particular motive in giving the fight fest in his private gymnasium, besides the entertainment of his brother-in-law, Thaw, 1t Is said. today. The motive be- came known when John iGeiger, an equal ly prominent clubman. and a member of the famous Paris vesper crew. appeared upon the street today nursing one of the most artistically colored black eyes seen in Philadelphia in many a day. Riddle had done the painting.
 The story goes that some 10 years ago Geiger and Riddle were opponents in 4 boxing bout. Geiger was top-notcher then and Tony Riddle left the ring with a dent in the left side of his chest just above the floating ribs.
 Riddle waited a long time, but yester- day "got even" In the meantime he trained hard under the tutorship of "Jawn' OBrien and the 10 years train- ing showed yesterday when he got Gel ger into the ring. The battle lasted only three rounds, but during the nine min utes of fighting what Riddle did to Gel ger was plenty. His last blow black ened Geiger's eyes and then Riddle re- marked Now I guess we are quits.'
 The two men then shook hands. In discussing the fight today Riddle said:
 .It was give and take and there never was any hard feelings between us, but now our account is settled. So long as details of the fight have become public, want it mentioned that 10 years ago Geiger gave me terrible licking. He smashed in my chest and licked me good and I decided would give him simi- lar dose.''
 Geiger has gone into active. training and there Is likely to be return match

TAFT CONDEMNS
 THE WAR JINGOlS

Washington, December 17.-(Special.l- j. President Taft, in an address at the ban quet of the American Society for Judicial Settlement of International Disputes. to- night declared that the situation with re- gard to the national defenses had been misunderstood and exaggerated. At the same time he admitted the necessity for preparing for war. and in connection with it dwelt upon the advantages that will accrue from the opening of. the Panama canal, which he fatly declared must be fortified. He said:
 ."The people of this country will never consent to the maintenance of a standing army which military experts will pro- nounce sufficiently large to cope in bat tie with the standing armies of the greater powers should they get by our navy, around our harbor defenses and descend upon our coast. , yl..'
 .'If this leaves us in position of help lessness then so be it. We shall do every thing in the way of wise. military prep aration if we maintain our present regu- lary army, If we continue to improve tho national militia, if we pass the pending volunteer bill to go into operation when war is declared and not to involve the nation in dollars worth of expense un- til the emergency arises; if we pass 8 law now pending in Congress which will give us force of additional officers trained in military art and able in times of peace to render effiicent service and qualify for civil positions that are of the utmost ad- vantage to the government. we could in q reasonable time accumulate guns and enough to equip and arm such force as we could enlist under our co1ors in an emergency.
 T have said this much in regard to the so-called war scare which has furnished pabulum for newspapers during the last CIV days There is not the slightest ex- cuse for such sensation.'
