as 1t darkened, only one miserable

intense confusion. AS l lifted myself
slightly, dazed by the sudden uproar
and eager to learn its cause, the tent
flap, which hau been lowered to ex-
clude the cold night air, was hastily
ierked aside, and a man stepped with
in, casting one rapid glance about
that dim interior. The flaring lamp

Tho Political Situation.

After FIVE days Of turmoil the Re
publican National Convention in Chics-
90 nominated President Taft for Sec
ond term and conferred q like honor
upon James 8. Sherman of New York
for the Office OF Vice President.
To say that the result was satisfsc-
tory to the bulk of the republicans of
Tuscola county, We believe would be
uttering an untruth. Fromi many
voters have come expressions OF hope
that both Mr.. Taft and Colonel Roose-
Welt might be dropped and third man
selected from the wealth OF available
timber, as candidate for the highest
Office in the land.
The Advertiser INDUCED the same
hope. and it's opinion is not changed by
the fact that majority of 81 members
of the LOTS delegates appear to have
been guided by precedent in giving Mr..
Taft the nomination for second term.
The conditions were extraordinary and
called for treatment above and beyond
the ordinary. The forces of both Taft
and Roosevelt displayed rule or
ruin" policy which will make the cleo
ton of republican more difficult than
was necessary, and we believe the sue
cess of the party to be of greater mo.
ment than the success of any individu.
al.
The bolt of Roosevelt and his follow
ers does not appear to have been justi-
fed. They do not deny that the con-
vention was conducted along the same
lines and was guided by the same rules
that have been in force for years. 1t
was the extraordinary character of
some of the questions involved, that
created the dissension, and whether
they were decided upon moral grounds
or not, it is fair to presume that under
like conditions, but with parties re
versed, the decision would have been
the same.
The situation is not one for the dis
play of emotion. but rather for calm,
cool consideration of conditions We
in Tuscola county believe the further
of the beet sugar industry
to be of immense practical value to the
United States We believe a protec-
tive tariff to be necessary to the delop-
ment of the industry to point where
the United States may be able to raise
all of the sugar it consumes. The re.
publican party stands for such tariff;
the democrat party is frankly opposed
to 1t as has been evidenced during the |
present season Of congress. A division
of the republican vote would well nigh
assure the election of d democrat, and |
such an event would probably mean
the election of a majority of democrats
in both houses of congress and result in
3 body blow to the sugar industry.
These considerations seem to The
to be sufficient to cause all
interested in the beet sugar business,
which includes every voter in Tuscola
county, to vote for the success of the
republican ticket and protection to that
md other industries, and for con-
tinuance of the good times the country
las enjoyed for the past ten years.

c. M. RraceIen Speaks at Emmetsbur.


The Emmetsburg, Iowa, Democrat
of March 20. contains the following
reference to c. M. Bracelen, Grand
knight of Hennepin Council K. G. of
this city, who delivered the principal
address at the st. Patrick's day exer-
cises in Emmetsburg on the evening of
March 16:
The address of the day was deliv-
cred by Mr.. G. NJ. Bracelen, one of the
leading members of the bar of Minne-
apolis. 1t showed painstaking research
and familiarity with conditions in pa
gan Ireland as well as with the severe
trials through which the people of the
Emerald Isle passed through during
the fifteen Christian centuries that fol-
lowed. Mr.. Bracelen is a pleasant self
possessed gentleman before an audi
ence. He is analytical and direct in
his style. He makes no attempt to
display his oratorical powers. He spoke
for about an hour. and was given close
attention. He is a genial, cultured gen.
tleman. He was surprised to witness
in Emmetsburg more creditable ST.
Patrick's day program than he had
ever seen in the Twin Cities"
