Party Leaders Reasons Why They
Should Be Voters Choice for President
TARIFF ACCOMPLISHMENTS
AND PROSPERITY TAFT'S
APPEAL TO THE PEOPLE.

NEW YORK, Nov. 4.-Departing
for his home in Ohio last night,
President Taft gave out a state
ment In which he set forth the rea-
sons why the people should return
him to the presidency and give him
a majority support of the Congress
to aid In carrying out the
already set in motion during the
Republican administration.
In his statement Presidant Taft
says:
1.-THE Republican tariff legislation
of the Congress of 1909. while mol
perfect. has actually reduced excess
sive tariff rates. and has yet re-
tanned the protective features so in
strumenta1 in creating Industrial
prosperity. And this administration
has already taken steps to secure q
fair mean by a tariff commission
OF further reducing and readjusting
the tariff within the limits Of proper
protection to Il industries.
"The antitrust laws on the stat
ute books have been enforced with
out regard to persons and without
fear or favor, and the resulting
decreases, II allowed to have their
normal operation, will tend to re-
store competition and will remove
the oppression that the statute
was passed to prevent.
I'm this view of what has been
done in the last four years the
Republican party should not now
be turned out of office. Its prom
ises have been complied with, real
progress has been effected and it's
conduct of the economic policies of
the government has been such as
to make it possible for the coun-
try to enjoy and prolong the wide
spread and growing prosperity
now at hand"

fair play between man and man.

c. r. MURPHY CONFIDENT

NEW YORK, Nov. 4-Charles F.
Murphy, leader of Tammany Hall,
has given out the following state
ment:
This has been one of the most in
teresting and significant campaigns in
our history. Never before, in my opin-
ion, have the principles and policies
of the Democratic party appealed
more strongly to the hearts of the
masses of the American people. Never
before has the belief seemed to be
more general and pronounced that the
best remedy for sur national ills
would be the election OF a Demo-
cratic President and the application
OF Democratic principles and policies
to the direction of governmental af-
fairs. Never was Democratic effort
more united, sincere and direct. Never
were Democratic prospects brighter
and Democratic expectations more
confident"

PUBLIC USE OF THE SCHOOLS.

who confessed to having killed Miss
Sophia Gertrude Singer, of Baltimore,
is expected to repeat his tragic story
of the murder today, when the coro-
nefss inquest Is resumed. He and his
wife are being held without bail.
Kramer insists he killed the woman
in self-defense. He continued to
jest about his .predicament and
seemed in a jolly mood.
Under the law they can't hang a
man with a wooden leg in this State"
he remarked.
How is that?" inquired a police
officer.
Because the law states a rope must
be used" the prisoner replied with q

TAFT RANKS TO
AID ROOSEVELT FIGHT

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 4.-Three
prominent citizens OF Philadelphia
have declared their intentions OF
voting the Roosevelt-Johnson ticket,
and gave their reasons for this &C
ton. These men are Nathan T. Fol-
well, president OF the Manufactur-
ers' Club, and one Of the foremost
wooden men of the country; Whar-
ton Barker, veteran h%nancier, who
was named as one of Garfield's cab
met. and Colonel Sheldon Potter,
cousin Of William Potter, former
minister to Italy.
All of these men have been lifelong
Republicans. Wharton Barker is
probably the oldest campaigner In
the Republican ranks In this State.
In giving their reasons for indorslng
the Progressive candidates the men
declared that they see In Roosevelt
the only hope for the building up of
the nation.

THE cosT OF UNPREPAREDNEss.

rv NpREPAREDNESS explains the awful disaster to Tur.
III key in a campaign of less than one month. The alnes
were prepared; Turkey was not. That tells the Wnoie
story of a war that hardly has a parallel in history. me VIII
ness of the Bulgarian advance, the crushing blows delivered IN
rapid succession, the superiority of the allies IN all the essen
tials of military organization and the pitiable inferorlty OF the
1urks revealed the neglect and shortcomings of the Turks. Ira
ditionally a martial nation, and believed to be a formidable one
in its soldiery, Turkey yielded to disagreement and sloth, let
its ornaments deteriorate, starved its defenses, and IT now pays
the inevitable penalty. There were economists in Turkey who
opposed expenditures for the national defense as well as thieves
who stole the appropriations. There aa economists OF the same
kind at Washington. Our national foseasa is the navy, and
they would reduce that to the level of g NTH rate power. The
Turkish disaster has it's lessons for the American nation. 1t
shows the awful cost of unpreparedness.

THE LOCAL CAMPAIGN.

eTa he local campaign has not been as clearly as could have
il been wished and as past experience dictated. And the
uneleanliness has been onesided, the same as before, and
will have the same result at the polls. The average voter likes
fairness and decency in the prosecution of an election campaign,
and over and over again he has by his vote rebuked any marked
departure from that rule. A mayor who has served three terms
In office has credentials that cannot be impaired by any attack
that is not based on justice and fact. He has the thriceex-
pressed Judgment of the community in his favor. In Mayor
Hausslings case there is the unblemished record of a good and
faithful official which no partisan violence has avaHed to stain.
MIR. Haussling will be reelected partly as a vindication of his
three administrations from malevolent attack and mostly be-
cause his conduct in office and his years of experience in its
duties qualify him to be at the head of the city government for
the next two years, a period when much must be done for the
development of Newark.

OUTLOOK FOR THE NEXT CONGRESS.

0TaHE next House of Representatives will be Democratic be
yond any reasonable doubt, and the chances are that the
Senate will have a Democratic majority. The present
majority in the House will be reduced by the election of Pro
rressiyes in Republican districts that in the Democratic tidal
wave two years ago elected Democrats, and hereafter there will
be three distinct parties in Congress, not counting the Socialists,
who may secure representation. One was elected in 1910, but
the Democrats will have a majority of the House and will there
fore control it's organization and legislation. The Senate ma
i0rity is forty-nine and the Democrats have to gain six Senators
for a majority. The complexion of the next Senate depends
Upon the State legislative contests, and in these there will be
heavy Republican losses. The Republican majority in the Senate
il likely to disappear, anyhow, as in a number of Republican
state the prospects are that the PrOgressiyes will either secure
control or have the balance of power.

10 Mr.. Blaine, who up to that moment had every prospect of
being elected. Burchards words, blazoned over the land, de-
feated Blaine in the hour of his expected triumph. They
