ANSWER TO COP.
Wall OF PANIC
Senatorial Candidate Denounces
Calamity Howlers as Traitors
to American Prosperity
ADDRESSES EMPLOYEES OF
FORD MOTOR COMPANY
Says Democrats Propose Only TO
Carry Out Taft's Broken
Tariff Pledges

Alfred Lucking, Democratic candi-
date for United States senator, praised
the Ford Motor Car Co, In a speech
at that institution at noon, Monday,
for its attitude in refusing to ask for
tariff favors. Mr.. Lucking said:
This institution is one OF the won
ders OF the industrial world, and the
striking thing about II Is that IL does
government. IL Is not asking the
people for its benefit or in order TO
make IL successful, but IL has always
stood and Is now standing upon its
own merits. II deserves all its re-
markable success.
The Democrats, my friends. are
charged with intending a radical re-
vision of the tariff. and some crazy
persons, and some vicious knayes are
charging US with free trade ipten-
lions. The truth Is. now mark my
words. the truth Is. we intend TO carry
out TO the letter the promise which
Mr.. Taft and the Republican party
made four years ago We intend a
reasonable revision downward OF the
tariff, made with businesslike caution
and prudence. strictly following the
promises made by Mr. Taft and his
party. which, they treacherously
broke.
For their infamous treachery the
day OF reckoning Is at hand. The
American people are aroused, and
within 4s hours you shall know that
that band Of brigands headed by Aid
rich, Penrose and Smoot. who deceived
and tricked and led around by the
nose a well-meaning but weak presi-
dent. II hurled from power in nearly
all the states OF the union.
Driven into the last ditch, they are
now yelling panic II either Roosevelt
or Wilson Is elected. II Is an intimi-
dalton OF the weak, the fearful and the
ignorant. Knowing full well that
Wilson will be elected. that his cleo
ton has been assured for more than
three months past. their cries or
wolf, wolf when there is no wolf.
their cries or fire, fire. when there is
no fire are little short OF treason to
American industry. | denounce them
and every one OF their shrieking tools
as traitors 10 American prosperity.
Bent upon winning by hook or by
crook, they are willing to do all they
can TO precipitate and bring on mis-
fortune and disaster rather than
lose"

PRODUCERS INCREASE
PRICE OF MILK

The milk Producers association
held q meeting In the Burns hotel
Saturday night and decided to in
crease the present price OF milk 10
retail dealers 20 cents per 100 pounds.
The present scale Is $3.50 per 100
pounds In October, November, De-
cember, January, February, March
and April. The present scale was I'm
creased 20 cents per 100 pounds
above the scale in effect last year.
The producers were led to this step
by the fact that the retailers have
recently increased the price OF milk
to the public. They claim they are
getting the small end OF the deal.

GRAND JURY WILL NOT

Complaint Is already heard
that the grand jury sessions are
likely to prove abortive and I'M
satisfactory by reason OF lack
of time. The law provides that
the life OF the grand jury ex-
pires with the expiration OF the
term Of court in which II Is
called. The present term OF
the circuit court expires Jan. Z
next, which means that the jury
will have less than two months
in which 10 complete its work.
This period Is manifestly In
adequate in which TO handle the
elaborate program outlined by
the prosecuting attorney, who
proposes the investigation OF
several municipal boards, the
alleged milk. ice and coal
trusts. and reputed combines
among plumbers, members Of
the building trades and several
other lines.

previous methods OF forecasting
thrown into the discard, and the
greatest silent vote In the history
OF the nation lined up In every doubt

which will take place tomorrow bids
fair 10 hang up records In many ways.
For the first time since the Populist
party was an active factor In Ameri-
can life, there is third party with
chance How much a chance only the
count OF the votes will determine.
But the fact that at the head OF the
National Progressive party is Col.
Theodore Roosevelt, famed for his
luck. and that II has an active work
ing organization In every state, makes
II a most potent factor In the result.
Should there be a Democratic land
slide, as has been claimed by the
managers OF that party and seeming
ly Indicated by newspaper polls IN
many localities, then the Progressive
organization may have the chance OF
capturing the regular Republican or
ganization in many OF the states.
The last word came for the cam
paign managers today. All were OPP
timistic in their claims. Whether they
personally believe the situation war
rants their enthusiasm IL known only
to themselves, but the most enthusl
astic party man cannot complain over
the modesty OF the individual man
ayers. Yet masked behind the claims
Is the admission privately OF at least
two of the managers that their public
utterances reflect more Of hope
than anything else They say that
the impossibility of solving the Isl
lent vote" has been so impressed on
them that they have just taken the
known possibility, added to II a gen.
eral average OF other figures, and
then made public what they hope VIII
be the result.

PASTOR DIVIDES A CHURCH
Yale Divinity Students Resignation
After Heresy Sermon Rejected by
a Vote of IS to 40.

New Haven, Conn.-The little town
of Branford, seven miles east of here,
is thoroughly aroused over the recent
u~tterances of the Rev. Seeley X.
Thompkins, pastor of the First Con.
gregational church, and report had it
that charges Of heresy might be made
against him. The Rev. DR.. Thomp.
.kins, according to some of his critics,
Is ultra-liberal in his views.
Several weeks ago Mr.. Thompkins
preached a sermon in which he said
he believed most of the Bible was
heresy.
John J. Cunningham, a deacon, led
the attack upon the young pastor and
he was supported by the older mem
bers of the church.
Opposed to the acceptance of the
resignation of the pastor was the
younger element, headed by William
Hotchkiss and Herbert E. Thatcher, a
deacon. The resignation Vas rejected
by a vote of 46 to 40.
Mr.. Thompkins is a senior of the
Yale divinity school, coming here two
years ago from Minnesota. His wife
Is here with him.
