Schrank is Socialist So was
Czolgosz. Schrank logged the foot
steps of his victim for weeks before
he could summon resolution to carry

psychological hour had struck Who
could deny that the stimulus of envi-

nerve and brought him to the stick

This reference to Milwaukee is not
introduced in derogation of the peo-

restored American rule. Still, the
city remains the stronghold of politi,.

their ideas prevail. But this infer
enee would be wrong. These men
were intensely earnest. In one way
or another each of them is taking an
active part in the present campaign.
Each of them, as it happens, has mas
tered the art of uniting self-respect
with respect for other men. Each of
them believes his opinions are tough
enough to survive the ablest statement
of contrary opinions. Each of them
believes he can fight his hardest even
if he does not lose his love of truth
and fair play.
Some day political discussion on the
stump and in the press may reach this
level of candor and courtesy. Some
day the public may get tired of the
orator OF the writer who deals only in
whitest whites and blacklist blacks,
and who treats courtesy as a weak
ness. Is ii even certain that this some
day isn't to-day2 Is it certain that
the present low level of public politi
cal discussion is really what the pub
lie wants?'
If men are governed by their emo
lions rather than their reason and vote
for candidate because he is the vie
tim of a would-be assassin then fur
Their campaign is useless. 1t is a
thankless task. this presenting of evil
dence TO man who is influenced by
goose flesh and shivers But be that
as it may, the campaign has sudden
ly changed and it is not for the worse.

necessaries of life might be, men who
were earning no wages could not buy.
The Pieayune speaks as truly today
in saying: mo matter how cheap the
neoessaries of life might be men who
are earning no wages could not buy
as did Woodrow Wilson in his history.
Men who are denied the privilege of
earning cannot buy. We cannot pur-
chase the product of pauper labor in
other countries and keep our own
farmers and workmen employed in
raising and making the things we buy
abroad. If laborers are idle our stores
and factories must be also, and then
the farmer sells for what he can get,
if he sells at all.
Woodrow Wilson spoke the truth in
describing the poverty and depres-
sion" that came as the result of one
trial of "tariff -for-revenue- only"
Now he asks you to try the same
thing again, for the sole purpose of
lifting him to his ambition"
If Woodrow Wilson were as honest
AID patriotic as he pretends to be,
would he not say as Mckinley said:
Open the mills and the minis will
AXE care of themselves" 1t was the
opening of the mills that caused the
crises to pass in 1897, when the Re
publican administration came in.

Aches and Pains,

You know by experience that the
aches and pains of rheumatism are not
permanently but only temporarily, re-

Then why not use an internal rem

rheumatism depends and cures the
disease?

rheumatic than any other medicine in

All MUST WORK TOGETHER.
Improvement Society a Necessity
Whether the Community Be
Large or Small.

Every community, no matter how
small, unless too sparsely settled,
needs an Improvement society, and 1t
may be that the exception noted is
still more needy II it be found imprac-
tlcable to have one. In small villages
that are dependent upon township
government only, the latter often be-
ing divided among several such vii
lagos, each one needs an organization
for public work of civic character, and
good-natured rivalry should exist, so
that each shall vie with the others in
seeking to obtain the best results.
In many small centers Of population
there is no other way of binding to-
gether progressive spirits who are
willing to work for the good Of all. In
rare cases churches have been able to
accomplish much good, but as a rule
there is more than one in every vii
iage, and seldom do they manifest a
Christian spirit to the extent of CO
operating for the public good. A good
live Improvement society will draw
the progressive element from each
church and also those without the
church. That there is need of civic
Improvement work In every commu-
nifty none will deny, yet nothing can
be accomplished without an organ1zat
ton. Is not that sufhcien reason for
one in your locality If none exists?
