human nature as a child. Il pleased
God In Ills inserutable wisdom. to
make Himself manifest in the flesh
by this most simple method.
And. that fact being recognized.

REPUBLICAN FAILURES.

1.-THE Republican party has failed to
meet the Just expectations Of the peo-
pie, and in the csmiug campaign Is
doomed TO defeat. 1T has refused 10 re-
spond to the earnest demands Of the
overburdened consumers Of the coun-
try. 1t has scorned the patriotic pc
titions of the teiIers. 1t has leg
islated: for the few and against the
many. 1t has stood pap for high
protection and failed to reduce the ex-
orbitant tarifltaxes. 1t has signaIly
neglected to carry out the pledge of
trus reciprocity. 1t has refused TO in
vestIgste and prosecute the criminal
trusts save where they declined to con-
tribute. 1t has failed to pass the cam
paign contributions publicity bill. 1t
has studiously avoided wherever pos.
sible the ratification Of the income-tox
amendment 10 the constitution, so that
honest wealth as well as honest toll
shall bear its share of the bardens of
government. 1t has refused to increase
the powers Of the interstate commerce
com m ission in order to prevent un-
Just discrins ination in railroad rates.
II has allowed the bill for depart
ment of transportation to slumhsr aid
die in com nittee. It has declined to
pass the law to elect senator's in cen

has killed the bill for department Of
labor with secretary haviI & a seat in

fer that matter, in the Interests of the

every Democratic effort to enact meas

for orto Rico and for Alaska, and
continues to govern these possessions
like conquered provinces, through the

has neglected to do anything to aid
the Americas merchant marine. 1T
has failed to carry ost Republican
