The High Cost Of Living" is the
Keynote of the Democratic textbook
for 1912, issued TO-DAY by the Demo
cratic National Committee. The tai
lacy of protective tariff is exposed in
a series of articles prepared by ex-
perts who have made "a special study
Of the numerous schedules CT the
Payne-Aldrich Bill. Under the head
ings, The High Cost OF living" Wool
the Keystone of the Arch" Cotton
Manufacturers, "TauH Board Is d
Fraud" How Tariff was Raised on
Cotton" "Dolliyer on Protection" PRO
lection and Farmer" Taft's Best Law

How Prices have Scared" Tariff and
Manufacturers, "The Tariff in the
Home Would save $4,000, 100000"
UNITED States Consumers Pay Piper"
The system of protection is attacked
from every angle 1t is the most com
prehensive and carefully PREPARED eX-
posure Of its kind ever made from any
political textbook.
The Trusts are taken care of IA an
able fashion. There is an article brist-
ling with new facts, concerning the
famous absorption 0 the Tennessee
Coal & Iron Company By the United
State Steel Corporate in 1907; the
report of the Harvester Trust, which
President Roosevelt held up at the re
quest of George w. Perkins, together
with the correspondence thereon, are

Great ORGANIZATION
In speaking about the work of the
committee Colonel Walker said today
that he was perfecting the greatest
organization ever known in the state.
lie is now arranging to organize all Of
the counties, and with their assistance
he hopes TO accomplish much for the
party He is also preparing to have at
least three party workers in each vot-
ing precinct of the state with whom he
can personally work and by whom.
he can always be kept informed as to
the status of affairs.
Organize the Editors
Another innovation Of Mr.. Walkers
is the organization Of the Democratic
editors. This is the first time in the
history OF the party in the state that
such a movement was ever inaugural
ed, and the Chairman believes that
through such. much good can be ac-
complished. As soon as Mr. Walker
returns 10 Parkersburg he will give
this matter more attention, and he
hopes to perfect the organization at
the earliest possible date.
Speaking of the organization, Mr..
Walker was of the opinion that the
state editors could do more effective
work by being banded together as
they would then thoroughly under
stand the nature of the work and all
would have a common end ia view.
Summers Arrives
Mr.. George w. Summers. the we'll

who is to have charge OF the publicity
department. arrived at Pafkersburg
Saturday and entered upon his duties.
He will have an able corps Of assis-
tants. and they will sec TO il that all
Democratic papers are well supplied
with literature. Mr. Walker expects
much from this department and be-
lieYas that under the guidance OF Mr..
Summers the best results ever obtain
ed in any campaign viii be from this
one.

In discussing his assistants Mr.. Wal

New Haven. Conn.-"My little girl ever since her birth, was frail and sickly and nothing seemed to do her any good until we tried your cod liv- CT and iron tonic, Vinol As soon as she commenced to take it. I noticed an improvement in her health and an. pearance. She has now taken three bottles of Vinol. and from the good if has done her I can say it will do all you claim for it in building up and strengthening frail and delicate chil. dren."

 Another mother of Chicago III writes: 'T can not say too much in praise of vinol for delicate, ai,ing children"
 We ask every mother of a frail. sickly or ailing child in this vicinity to try Vinol on our agreement to re- turn their money if it does not do all we ciaim.
