ROOSEVELT
Is he sincere?

lis he sincere!
Does he mean what he says?
Is his desire and purpose real
ly to help the masses against
the powerful rich and favored
classes?
If these questions were all
satisfactorily answered in the
minds Of the common people
does any one doubt who would
be elected president? Certain
ly not. koosevelt's majority
would be overwhelming.
Well, why is there any
doubt? Simply and solely be-
cause the rich and powerful
class are doing everything in
their power to mislead and con-
fuse the masses of voters--to
create this doubt in their minds
SO that their votes will be scat
tered.
A real friend of the masses
need never have any fear of an
election result if the people I'M
derstood clearly who was their
real friend. But often the in
terests get In their work by
cunningly aiding partisan poll
ticians, by creating prejudice,
by circulating falsehoods-and
the work is accomplished. The
people take sides and divide
their strength.
Can we discover the real
friend of the common average
man in this contest? 1t is
cheap and insufficient for you
or | to positively and arbitrarily
assume to know without the
bubble of doubt. But there are
some things we do know, and
we can reason therefrom.
Few men in public life have
had the wide experience of
Colonel Roosevelt
He does not strive or care for
money. He can have no unsat-
istied political ambition, be-
cause he has been president.
Tie is a strong, forceful, ener-
getic man, who fears nothing.
He can do the physical or
mental work of two men and
laugh at the effort.
He is one of the few men in
public life who has the un-
doubted nerve to fight to a fin
ish for what he thinks is right,
against any and all odds, or re-
gardless of results to himself.
His record of things actually
done is equal to that of any
man in public life.
These known things impells
the PRESS to the honest and
sincere belief that Theodore
Roosevelt is the friend of the
common people; that he is
equipped to fight their battles
for them; and thaG he will do
so better than any other can
didate now before the people.
We believe he is sincere, and
means to do what he says, as
near as any human agency can

One Hundred Per Cent on 10 Farm

comparison Is the only way
TO determine the difference be-
tween any two things. So it
is In political parties. Take
two pierods of our history.
One with the government in
republican hands, and the 9TH
ey in democratic hands. Com
pare the two as they affect the
people, the great majority of
our citizens.
Our first consideration in this
agricultural and stock country
must necessarily be chow are
farm products affected" This
is just as vital to the merchant
or mechanic in town as it is to
the farmer himself.
Would it surprise you read
or to know that there is nearly
100 per cent difference between
the record of the two parties
on these things which most
directly interest us?
In 1892 the democrats went
before the country on a free
trade p~latform--that is a tariff
for government revenue only.
They won, and we had Cleve-
land democracy for four years.
Without going into the har-
rowing details OF free soup
houses feeding thousands OF
idle men in the cities, we will
just make a direct comparison
Of our own conditions during
democratic government, and
the present conditions after Is
Z years of republican prosperity.
Take the ten leading articles
produced in Hand county, up
on which ali Of us depend for
a living, and the prices on
these ten products are nearly
100 per cent higher under rep
ublican government today than
they were under democratic
government in 1926.
Isn't that a fair test? Here
are the prices, look them over.
