The Globe-Democrat has set up its
biennial screech about prosperity.
Some people always get prosperous
as soon as the Republican campaign
fund begins to circulate.
Hon. Wallace Crossley of War

and delivered a highly interesting
talk on state and national issues to
a large audience at the court house.
We acknowledge pleasant call.
| 1t was the Democratic party that
reduced the state tax levy from fifty
cents to fifteen cents on the $4,000
valuation. And it was a Democratic
precedent which Hadley sought to
overthrow when he tried to treble
the taxes.
VIM. Satterlce, we'll known in this

Here's the New, York Suns de-
scription of gentleman: A man
that's clean inside and out; who Meth
er looks up to the rich nor down to
the poor; who can lose without
squealing and who can win without
Dragging; who is considerate of wo-
men, children and old people; who
is too brave to lie, too generous to
cheat, and who takes his share of
the world and lets other people have
theirs
Col. c. f. Robbins added another
feather to his already we'll ornament
ed cap Friday when he sold at auc-
ton the Peterson farm, 3 miles north
and 81 miles east of Virginia, secur-
ing price of $3.50 per acre. Mr..
Robbins has been highly successful
in the real estate auction business,
in fact so much so that he has been
forced to form real estate firm to
take care of that end of his business.
The new firm is to be known as
Robbins L. Wilcox.
If Taft's nomination was tainted
with fraud, as Hadley charged and
proved, what has since occurred to
make it pure? Was Hadley a paid
advocate at Chicago, or is he paid
advocate now? What was dishonest
in June cannot be honest in Novem-
Der, and attempted disfranchisement
added to open fraud cannot remove
from the Republican party the stain
of diahonor nor make it possible for
an honest Republican to vote his par
ty ticket this year.
