And this unprecedented growth OF our
foreign trade is accompanied by eXPaIts ISL
as unprecedented in our home trade IRON ON
one end OF the country to the other-ltto
Atlantic TO the Pacific, the St: l-a~,,Sden
TO the Rio Grande. 1t IS not SUI %
imitation, but gradual advance uhder IA ia
vorable conditions from the prostratlo,nt
OF 1907 to prosperity as substantial as
is general. -, &c
All Industries are humming and there Is
work at good wages-princeiyr com ali Iii
with wages abroad-for all who are VIII.
ing to work, while in the Pittsburgh as H
trict alone, | understand, there IS q ue
mand for at least thirty thousanu W.

Business, wholesale and retail, Is 49,

for the American voter IL whether .iIis

shall go forward TO even greater pi0'7

The farmers arc enjoying the greatest
prosperity in the experience OF American
agriculture Every day the, Northern
Pacific is carrying million Dusuels 80, VI
grain to Duluth. The yield in that zone
alone Is I57NOJ,O0O bushels. so that the
conveyance by the railway or the Lari ~
ers' grain from the region trloutaty
the Northern Pacific to that polnI Oh us
tribution will require l5l days 500 ona 1oo 70
the farmers producing IT: .,
AT the present the steel industry, CoHi-
monty regarded as the barometer o VI DTS
ness, IS driven 10 It's utmost cdpdCIhIs'
with orders far ahead for steer rams
Other Industries are equally active, ana
altogether national conditions ana pros
poets were never so prosperous anu ~ ar
Using. provided the American peoPle ~
eide 10 apply TO their political cholce the
same good judgment and prudent III
sight which they apply, as RUE u 'ho''
personal affairs.
"As we come nearer tho day OF cleo
tom saws Mr.. Taft. at is TO be eH-
pected that the intelligent voter VIII
appreciate more keenly the .respons'-
biity which attaches to his ballot. In
national elections, at least, the great
majority like to feel that they are Vot-
Ina for a candidate who has a chance
Of success. II is obvious that either the
Republican or the Democratic nominees
will be elected, and not to vote for the
Republican candidates Is, In effect, 20
support their Democratic opponents
and the Democratic platform OF
tariff for revenue only freishted with
dire consequences for the country now
busy and prosperous under Republican
rule. Il is we'll known to every one, an
open secret on every street corner, that
the Third Term party does not expect
success"
The President continues:
snecial correspondent OF THE New
York Evening Post" writing from Chi-
cago. saws: ut may be said that nelther
Colonel Roosevelt nor any OF the eSrerl-
enced politicians who surround him eN-
poets TO carry Illinois or any other I'M
portant state, with the possible exception
~ california and Kansas. From sources
close To the candidate II IS learned that
Colonel Roosevelt Will be satisfied II he
can complete the Generalization OF the
Republican party
IL remains 70 be seen how many Re
publlcans are willing 10 assist In complet-
ing the Generalization OF the Republican
marty and handing the relus OF govern
ncut over 20 the Democrats TO sratlIy
mere desire for revenge.
~ believe that tho Republican party
will be found, as a whole President
TAFT concluded, 400 patriotic, too loyal
70 It's principles and its traditions, too
lust In its attitude toward public SER
wants whom il mas intrusted with duties
faithfully performed to commit hari-
kari in the form and for the objects in
dicated. Every mail brings assurances
that those who have strayed are re-
turnina 10 the fold, and that in every
state In which the Republican party IS
not disfranchised odtime majorities
will bo rolled up for the Republican
candidates"
