A MALICIOUS CIRCULAR.

a printed anonymous circular is be-
ing sent 20 Jewish citizer, of the up
rer peninsula, entitled Congressman
Young's Love for Jewish Citizens"
in which it is stated that Mr.. Young
was opposed 10 the aoiugation of the
treaty Of 1882 with Russia, under
which Russia had refused to abide by
its terms and recognize passports of
American citizens Of the Jewish race.
The author Of this circular. knowing
it to be maliciously false, has not the
temerity to sign his name to the same.
The fact IS Mr. Young favored the
abrogation Of this treaty of 1899 on
account of the manner in which Rus
STA had refused to abide by its terms
and recognize passports Of American
citizens Of the Jewish race.

III the issue in this campaign could
be determined ON November 8 only by
the men who passed through the ex.
perience between 1898 and 1897 IL

there Is scarcely business man. a
farmer or a laboring man who expert
enced the hard times. the idleness and
the low prices OF his produces, who
would for moment again vote to
place the party in power that wrought
such industrial and financial ruin as
the country experienced during that
period.
unfortunately only about thirty
per cent of those who voted in 1899
will participate in the determination
of these issues in 1912. II is the young
men in this campaign. as il was the
young men In 1899, who will determine
these issues. The young man who
casts his first vote on the 5th of next
November was only one year old when
Cleveland was elected last time while
the man who will cast his tenth vote
ir states where they vote every two
years was only nineteen years old
then. These young men from twenty
enc to forty-one years OF age today
were either in their swaddling clothes
or ia the schools and the colleges when
the country was passing through that
terrible experience resulting from the
change in 1892 from the principles and |
policies of the Republican party 10
those Of the Democratic party
II is therefore the duty Of this
class 81 voters-these young men-to
give TO the consideration Of the is

thought before blindly voting upon the |
theory that there is no relation what

VICE PRESIDENT SHERMAN.

James Schoolcraft sherman was one
OF the kind of citizens OF whom a sell
governing republic can never have too
many When honestly earned the re-
wards Of public service are honestly
taken. II is well for any country when
its citizens who do not need to get
on in the world" seek the honors Of
public service. Such citizens are less
exposed to temptation and their sery-
ice is more apt 20 be personally disin-
terested. The Hon, James 3 sherman
was fine type Of that kind Of citizen.
OF independent fortune. Of approved
soundness Of judgment in affairs, he
was in public life Tor a quarter century
because his own people who knew him
best knew him 10 be a man who
could be relied on To do the work Of
government faithfully and with sober
regard for all the variety Of interests
involved and affected. For twenty
years continuously they sent him to
Congress in recognition Of his quality
Of reliability
In the House his record was that of
a member who never sought notoriety
and always did his full share and
more of the work In the peculiar and
somewhat ungrateful role--to minds
DESTROYS of conspicuity at any price
Of vice president he kept on doing the
work
The vice presidency had TO be forced
on Theodore Roosevelt because Of his
fear that he would be forgotten in it.
James s. Sherman took it as the great
honor Il is and didn't care whether he
was forgotten in it or not. That chance
was just a part of the days work.
The difference in attitude shows the
difference in men. A Roosevelt asks
of a public duty how doing ii will in
crease his personal renown. a Sher-
man looks at it as just a public duty
worthy of his best efforts, because do
ing it Is a service to his country
Mr. Shermans service as vice pres
idcnt mas made for the tranquility of
The public mind. All who took the
slightest trouble to acquaint them
selves with his character felt assured
that if any accident should befall the
head If the nation there would be no
uncertainty about what the legal sue
cessor would do All knew that he
would go straight on in fidelity 10 po-
litcal principles well understood and
in loyalty 10 the laws as they are.
