The Union Meetings.

Greater interest the past week has
been shown in the Court House Union
Meetings than at any previous time.
Sunday evening, despite the stormy
weather. the first floor was completely
filled. A choir compos I'd of the sing
ers in the various church choirs, rem
ders the musical end of the meei ;ngs
of great interest.
The Children's Parade came off on
Friday as scheduled and tomorrow
afternoon there will be a meeting for
children only in the Methodist Church
with a souvenir for all present.
One of the best parts of the meet
sings is the testimony given by men
who have been in the lowest stages
of moral and spiritual degeneracy,
and yet have thrown off that grip and
become men of good influence. Sew
eral of these have assisted DR.. Laun-
master with the meetings. Tuesday
night a reformed burglar addressed
the audience.

COMMUNICATED.
Republicans Must Vote Reform Ticket

Editor of Democrat: There is a say
ing that whom the gods would de-
stroy they first cause to become de-
mented | can not think that this
finds an application to our Republican
Party, born in the throes of a great
moral and patriotic struggle for re-
form, and crowned with victory in a
greater struggle for the preservation
of united country, and the perfection
and perpetuity of political equality
and liberty. But, sir, it does seem
to fit the case of the Republican man
ayers or bosses. For they do show
a determination to persist in old and
outIawed methods and in exploiting
public Office for the private advantage
of the few, and the special privileges
of corrupting corporations How
many years must we so sojourn with
sorrow and shame in the wilderness
of defeat, before these 7grafters'' are
sloughed off and We may enter the
Promised Land of an honorable sue
cess? Does the exposue of what was
long known of our Boss Kuehnle's
rule in Atlantic; does the frank, but
impudent and disgraceful attitude Of
Boss" Baird in Camden; does the
chameleon-like platform adopted at
Trenton, to take any shade of meaning
found desirable; or the knitting of
Progressive Republicans; or the mid
dle-of-the road" progress obstructing
Taft-cats-paw administration; or the
high cost of living due to the extortion
of the tariff protected combines do all
or any of these even encourage, much
less demand that we should vote our
party ticket? What other reasons
could we have?
We are in sad case; we have fall
en- upon surprising times, when the
Democratic party is squarely fighting
for reform and progress and our own
party is the deceitful enemy of both
reform and progress. There is only
one course left US. We must stand
by Governor Wilson and give him
Legislature that will follow his lead,
and hold the advance already gained.
And we must labor and hope that in
another year the true hearted rank
and file of the Republican party will
assert their rights and place that
party where it belongs, in the van-
guard of the noble army fighting for
government of the people, by the peo-
pie, for the people.

The Youths Companion is for Every
body.


OF course if you are too young to
read, or so old you have forgotten
how, you may not enjoy The Youths
Companion. That is rather sweep
ing statement, however, for hosts of
children love to have the stories and
jingles of the Children's Page read
them. There is many a grandfather
and grandmother whose eyes are dim
who like nothing better than
to sit and listen to The Companior
stories and articles. Many blind
person, and even those who in addi-
tion can neither spear nor hear have
been cheered by The Companion, its
contents having been communicated
them through the finger tips of friends
The reading of The Youths Compan-
ion is pretty sure cure for all kinds
Of loneliness. Robinson Crusoe would
have been happier man if he could
have had his Companion Thursday as
well as his man Friday. Just send
for the Prospectus for 1912 and sample
copies of the paper.
We think you will agree, when you
have read them, that no other paper
gives quite so much of such a high
quality as The Companion. and it costs
only SIZE now for the 50 weekly is
sues. On January 1, 1912, the sub
scription price will be advanced to
SO. 90.
The new subscriber receives a gift
of The Companion Calendar for 1912,
i'm ten colors and gold, and all the re-
naming issues of 1911 free from the
time the subscription is received.
