Il have every reason to be satisfied
with political conditions. have been
simply overwhelmed for days past with
letters and newspaper clippings show
ing the trend OF the tide toward the
Republican party. its platform and It's
candidates. | have been especially
gratified by the news from the north
western states. Chairman Hilles Of the
Republican national committee. who
has been visiting the northwest, tells
me that reports from all parts Of those
states bring most gratifying evidence
Of Republican confidence and activity,
with earnest determination to achieve
the success of Republican principles
and candidates.
1.-The population Of the northwest is
not surpassed anywhere In intelligence
and thrift and attachment to American
institutions. The farmers OF that part
Of the Union were never so prosperous,
and they do not mean to risk the loss
OF their prosperity by abandoning the
Republican party. whose policies have
enabled them to prosper. They are
convinced that the third term candi-
date Is no longer In the running and
that the choice is between the Repub-
lican platform and candidates, on the
hn nt
Democratic platform, with its plank
OF tariff for revenue only, and its
candidate, Governor Wilson, who said
in an address at Williams Grove, Pa,
that the farmer does not need protec-
ton. 1t Is unnecessary to explain to
the farmer-west, east, north or on
the Pacific slope-what Governor VIII
sons very frank declaration would
mean with Mr.. Wilson In the White
House and a Democratic majority In
the capitol.
Prosperity In tho Nation.
1.-THE same news comes from all di-
rections. A Baltimore trade paper,
which has been gathering the views
OF manufacturers In all parts OF the
United States, thus sums up the stu
alton: a rapid expansion in business
interests, increasing activity every
where, factories oyertaXed with orders
beyond their capacity tc fl!, n grow
ing scarcity of labor, especially Of
skilled mechanics, n car shortage
which, in many cases, is greatly re.
tarding shlpments-such is the condi-
ton of business throughout the coun-
try as voiced by leading manufactur-
ers of every section
1.-The principal reason for the exist
ing prosperity is the assurance that,
under the Republican policy Of home
protection and trade expansion, Amer
ican industry, while reaching for the
foreign market, Is not in danger of
losing the home market While our
foreign trade Is growing more rapidly
than at any time In our history, do
nestle commerce is making advances
fully as remarkable. Our population
Is increasing, the demand for the
necessaries Of life Is increasing pro-
portionately, and, thanks to active
business and good wages, the people
are able TO pay for what they want
and to keep our industries busy sup
plying their wants; hence general
and growing prosperity, with Ger
tainty OF still better times. pravded
the machinery OF our national activ
tiles is not disarranged and brought
to a standstill by undue reduction of
the tariff or anarchistic assaults upon
our institutions and upon the har
monious relations now existing. as

There Is no serious danger, | be-
lieve, to our institutions from indus
trial agitations. So long as such agi-
tation keeps within legal bounds IL
Is not without wholesome significance
and may tend TO improve conditions
When Il passes beyond the legal limit.
