Can a Dissatisfied Republican Vote fol
Wilson!

Why should dissatisfied republican
turn to Wilson for relief And this
Echo answers, why, indeed.
Certain Taft supporters will vote for
Wilson with the avowed purpose Of
keeping Theodore Roosevelt out Of the
White House. II is quite generally
understood that the bosses Of the Taft
campaign have arrived at the conclu-
sion that if there is no hope Of electing
Taft (and who beside himself believes
there isl the next best thing is to de-
feat Roosevelt, by voting for Wilson.
A we'll authenticated report comes from
New York, the home Of that odious
creature who answers to the name of
Boss Barnes, that the word is being
passed down the republican line, Vote
for Wilson" This action is very much
in line with the tactics Of all political
bosses. When they cannot get just
what they want they take the next best
thing for the very obvious reason that
there are so many democratic bosses
with whom they can work in entire
harmony who are supporting Mr.. Viii
son.
We are only telling what every well
informed man knows when we say that
the difference between one half Of Mr..
Wilson'S supporters and those who are
supporting Mr.. TAFT is less than the
difference between tweedlede and
tweedledum. When we say difference
we mean political difference. Politics
with certain class OF men means their
interest in high tariff, in big profits
in railroads, express companies, oil
companies, tobacco companies and
many other commercial activities which
look to favorable Legislation for in
creased profits. Between Boss Barnes

Ivan, and Boss Taggart and Boss Fair
banks, and SO on down the line to our
own little bosses, John L. Wilson and
George Tuner. there is community
of interests that takes the place of
politics, with this class Of men
and their followers interest takes
the place Of principle. II TAFT were
the leading opponent of Roose-
Yelt every democratic boss in the coun-
try could, and would, with alacrity
vote for Taft to defeat the common foe.
Roosevelt.
To say that among Mr.. Tafts sup
porters and among Mr.. Wilson's sup
porfers there are no honest. sincere
and patriotic voters would be both
foolish and untrue, and it is also
true that these voters have perfect
confidence in the honesty, the sincerity
and the patriotism Of their leaders, in
GLIDING the bosses, but what we can
not understand, and never will under
stand, is why a dissatisfied republican,
one who has no faith in Taft and his
followers, should turn to Wilson for re-
lief. The dissatisfied element in the
democratic party will, in considerable
numbers support Roosevelt, for the
reason, not because they dislike Will
son but because their party has not
been purged Of its bad element, they
have no faith in large number Of Mr..
Wilson's supporters, and are afraid, and
not without good reason, that he can
do nothing until his party gets rid Of
the element in control of the party
machinery. Should Mr.. Wilson be SO
fortunate as to be elected, one Of two
things will happen inside Of two years,
either Mr.. Wilson must bow to the
will Of the bosses or the party will
split in two. If he does bow the
democratic party will split, so it will
be split either way. 1t is absolutely
certain to come about. The two ele-
ments in the democratic party can not
work harmoniously together. The dis
satisfied element in the democratic
party in the southern states is even
now working against Mr.. Wilson and
as a consequence, while one or two,
perhaps none, OF the southern states
will go against Mr.. Wilson, there is
going to be an astonishing cut in the
democratic majorities in the cotton
belt. Mark the prediction.
Entertaining these views We can not
understand why a dissatisfied repub-
lican, one who can not stomach Taft,
should for a moment consider voting
for Wilson.

If you are housewife you cannot reason
ably hope to be healthy or beautiful by wash

ali day, and crawling into bed dead tired at
night. You must get out into the open air
and sunlight. If you do this every day and
keep your stomach and bowels in good order
by taking Chamberlain's Tablets when need

beautiful. Sold by Kings City Drug Store.
