THE OHIO POLITICAL RAPE.

In the recent primary fight in Ohio

A SOPHOMORE CANDIDATE FOR
GOVERNOR.

The speech delivered by Mr.. Locke
Craig before the Democratic State
Convention, after his nomination for
| Governor, is curious production.
There is nothing in it but general
tiles; they are not even glittering
generalities; they are in fact ordi-
nary, sophomore generalities. The
speech reads just like an effusion
that Mr.. Craig must have delivered
when he was a sophomore at school
The only part of the speech in
which Mr.. Craig seemed to attempt
to state his position, or the position
of his party, is in the following pa
ragraph, which We clipped from the
report of his speech as published in
the Charlotte Observer:
eff North Carolina would full
fill her obligations as Sovereign
State she must guarantee to all
her people, and to all her indus
tries that opportunity which
comes with justice, grander than
benevolence, more august than
charity. Let her statutes be the
law of Righteousness for the pro-
lection of the weak, and for the
encouragement of every enter
prise of field and steepled city.
Let her unalterable judgment be
that property shall be safe, and
that the rights of those who toll
shall be sacred; that no mon
opoly wherever organized shall
exist within her borders to stran-
gle her legitimate business, and
despoil her children; that her
material development and her
moral and intellectual develop
ment shall proceed together"
We challenge any one to tell what
the above means. Does it mean that
Mr.. Craig is in favor of an honest
antitrust law with teeth in it? When
he was a candidate for the nomina-
ton for Governor four years ago.
Gov. Kitchin charged that he was
a candidate of the trusts, and now
we see the Democratic party nomi-
nate the trust candidate by acclama-
ton.
The fact is, Mr. Craig does not
state where he or his party stand on
any question. What he says is SIM
ply a meaningless jargon of words.
Mr.. Craig closes his speech with the
following meaningless sophormic eff
fusion:
Mighty Contest Opening.
The mighty contest is OPEN
ing, great as any that was ever
proclaimed by the trumpet or
pleaded by the sword; the ele-
mental forces are gathering for
the strife. The squadrons are

National Committee might be instru-
mental in thwarting the will of the
people: but, on the other hand, IL lie
believed that IL the Committee un-
seats a number of Roosevelt dele
gates who are honestly elected and
clearly entitled to seats In the Con-
vention, that there will be enough
Taft delegates who will show their
disapproval and condemnation OF
such action by voting to overthrow
the action OF the Committee.
However, il is admitted by every
one that the contest is a very close
one, and that the result is doubt
full.
False and Unpatriotic Economy
The action of the Democratic
House in refusing to vote the money
asked for Colonel Goethals to con-
tinue and complete the Panama
Canal is meeting general disappro-
val and condemnation over the whole
country.
The Democratic House leaders ex-
cuse their action on the ground of
economy. This position, however, is
ridiculous, unless the Democratic
party goes on record as opposed to
finishing the canal for which the
american people have declared.
The amount of money refused by
the nan1nnro Hnncn &c ci
lion dollars. If the refusal of this
money should stop work on the canal
and delay its completion, the result
will cost the American people many
times sixteen millions of dollars. The
economical, wise and papriotic thing
to do is to finish the canal as ex-
peditiously as possible and give our
great Southern section af the coun-
try the immense benefits that will ac-
crue therefrom
The action of the Democratic
House in refusing to appropriate a
cent to further equip the navy is
almost on a par with it's action in
refusing money for the canal. The
protests that have come up over the
country against the action of the
Democratic House have been SO great
that Senator Swanson and a number
OF other Democratic Senators have
come out strongly in favor of vot-
Ing money for two additional bat
tieships and the other money neces-
sary to maintain and increase the
navy, according to the program that
has been adopted and followed for
so many years.
Why They Want to Abolish the Tar
i'll Board.
The action of the Democratic
house In voting to abolish the tariff
BOARD Is also on par with it's other
unWise action. The only way to in
telilgently revise the tariff is to
gather official facts on which con-
gressmen can vote. That is what the
tar1f board was created to do. The
democratic House, by voting to ahoI-
Ism the tariff board, goes on RECORD
declaring that they do not want anv
Iacts, and that they want to he IN

she is worthy. We congratulate these
women for selecting SUCH a woman
as their leader. Mrs. J. J. McElory,
