POSSIBLY TOO MUCH FOR HER
Man Should Have Recognized That
There Are Limits Even to
Fairy's Power.

Once upon a time a man who lived
out Bloomfield way did an unusual
service for a fairy queen. don't re-
member exactly what it was; perhaps
he stepped into a drift to let her pass.
AT any rate she said to him in graft
tude:
Sir. for your kindness | will re-
ward you by granting you three wish
es. Name what you desire most in
all the world and it shall be yours"
The man who lived u Bloomfield
way thought a moment. He ought
have lived out South Orange way or
down Elizabeth way or over Arlington
way, but 1t happened that he dwelt out
Bloomfield way, and as this is a true
story, must tell it exactly as 1t was
He thought a moment. and then he
thought another moment, making two
moments all told. after which be said:
I wish people would quit eating
peanuts In the street cars. II gives
the cars such a vegetable air. and
besides, 1t is cry harmful, for, as you
know. people should have cheerful sur
roundings al meals"
On hearing this request the fairy
queen vanished In q fash Of fame
with a deafening report. and the next
time he man got aboard q car to go
to his home out Bloomfield way. the
passengers still eating peanuts
and the had a breath.
This teaches US that fairies are not
all they are cracked up to bA.-New-

Woodrow Wilson's Message to the American People

control it would set industry free. The
prise and initiative Of all Americans would be
subst ted for the enterprise and nitiative
Of small group Of them. Economic democracy
would take the place Of monopoly and selfish
management. American industry would have
buoyancy of hope, new energy a new variety.
With the rest orat ion Of freedom would come the
restoration of opportunity.
Moreover. admin st rat i on would at last be
set up in Washingt on, and a legislati i've regime,
under viii CHI real programmes of social better
ment could be undertaken as they cannot now.
The COVE nment might be serviceable for many
things. 1t might assist In q hundred ways to
safeguard tho lives and the health and promote
the omfort and the happiness of the people; but
it can do these things only if its actions be
distinterested ed, only if they respond to public
opinion only if those who lead government
the country as a whole, feel deep thrill Of
int innate sympathy wi every class and every in
terest in it, how to hold hand and
listen % Of every sort and quality and
origin, in taking counsel what is to be done.
Int erest must not fight against interest. There
must be common underst anding and free ac-
tion all together.
The reason that feel Justified in appeal
ing to the voters of this country to support the
Democratic party at this crit ical juncture in
its affairs is that the leaders of neither of
the other parti es propose to attack the problem
Of a free government at its heart. Neither pro-
poses to make a fundamental change in the policy
of the government with regard to tariff duties.
1t is with both or them In respect or the tarlff
merely quest on of more or less, merely ques-
tion of looping off little here and amending
a little there; while with the Democrats it is
a quest on Of pr iple. Their OBJ ect is to cut
every specie favor out, and cut it out just as
fast it can be cut out Without upsetting the
business processes OF the country. Neither does
either of the other parties propose seriously to
disturb the supremacy Of the trusts. Their only
remedy is to accept the trusts and regulate
them, notwithst anding the fact that most Of the
trusts are so constru ed to insure high
prices, because they are not based upon effici-
ency but upon monopoly. Their success lies in
control. The competiti on of more efficient COM
petitors, not loaded down by the debts created
when the combinat IONS we're made, would embarrass
and conquer them. The Trusts want the protect on
Of the government, and are likely to get it if
either the Republican or the so-called Progress
sive'' party prevails.
Surely this is a Surely the questions
Of the pending elect ion, looked at from this
point Of view, rise into a cause. They are not
merely the debates Of a casual party contest.

TRYING TO DECEIVE
THE VOTERS TODAY

The Republican State Central Com
mittee in it's attempt to answer the
Wall Street journal of Sept. ~, 1872,
says
There was no money for invest
meuts of any kind or for even ordin-
airy business uses during the demo-
cratic years of '93 to 81, but there
is now under repu blican administra-
TONS"
Why God bless your poor little
dwarfed souls John Ii. McGraw was
governor t he house and senate were
overwhelming republican. and the
whole trouble was that the party be-
came drunken with power and the
state was robbed right and left;
the treasury was looted and filched
by a horde of 2x4 nincomp0op poll
tcians and our state warrants were
hawked around at 75c on the dollar
good as gold-but no bOdy-Or very
few at least had money to buy them
with Many poor man lost his all
just in that way.
The fusion forces-populists, DEM
ocrats and silver republicans swept
the state in 1o96-just in time to save
the state from bankruptcy, Gnd
SIX months later state warrants were
up to par-dollar for dollar-the state
was doing business on a cash basis
and by the end of 1907 every county
in the state was doing business in
the same way.
Thousands upon thousands of dol
Glars worth OF county warrants were
sold right here in this city for 25c
to 35c on the dollar.
We remember one incident in this
county that will never get away from
us. 1t was in 1895 that Judge
Graves had "a men summoned to APP
pear as jurymen Before being
being sworn in he said to us.-"Gen-
tlemen, you are called upon to serve
as jurors in his court, cannot say
when you will be paid for your SER
vices. 1t may be several years.
There's no money on hand to pay you
now or redeem your warrants, and
its up to say now whether you want
to serve or not. | have no desire
to force you to do so, neither shall
|. AS many of you as feel disposed
to serve your country in the capacity
OF luTynen and take your chances
on being paid some time in tn. tu-
ture God only knows when, l do not
st;hd up The "a men all stood up.
