his hypocricy, duplicity, and extrava-
gance in Office, and quoted from repub-
lican newspapers and from speeches
made by republican leaders denounc-
ing the governor, in his address here
today.
Judge Dunno touched lightly on the
national issues of the campaign, but
devoted most of his time to denounc-
ing the extravaganza of the republi-
can administration, telling how under
Deneen the expense of maintaining
the state government has increased
TO an astounding figure all out of pro.
portion to the increase in population
FROM REPUBLICAN NEWSPAPERS.
ITO show just what republican
newspapers and republican leaders

of Governor Deneen. Would the

Let me quote in addition some OF
the statements made by prominent re-
publican leaders showing the esteem
to which Mr.. Deneen is held by mem

Dunno.
Walter Clyde Jones in a speech
made in Chicago March q, 1912, had
this to say of Governor Deneeu: Two
more clever political trainmen than
Roy West and Charlie Deneen never
pulled a throttle or set a brake. Char
lie stands in the cab with the throttle
open addressing uplift messages to
the legislature Roy stands at the
rear of the train with a green lantern
and sets the air brakes. full on. The
engine goes through the motions, but

John E. W. Wayman in an address
March %. 1912, said: Mr.. Deneen
testified before the second committee
investigating the election of Mr.. Lori

VALUE OF EAR CORN
FOR YOUNG HOGS.
Experiments Prove It Best Way
to Feed This Grain.

1t Is gratifying to the busy farmer to
know that ear corn is the best form in
which to feed this grain. The Iowa
experiment station has conducted sew,
eral trials covering a period of three
years In which we compared ear corn
with dry shelled, soaked shelled, dry
ground and soaked ground. 1t was
found that dry ear corn was fed with
the least waste and that the hogs eat
ing it made the most economical
gains. In 1907 100 pounds of dry ear
corn made as much pork as IL. pounds
Of shelled corn soaked twenty-four
hours or 100 pounds of cornmeal soak
ed twelve hours The dry shelled and
the dry meal were even less efficient
than the soaked meal
Whether the corn was fed dry or
soaked bushel of corn ground with
out the cob made much more pork than
a bushel of corn ground grain, cob and
all.
Summarizing. the results for the last
two years showed that with strong
young pigs, during their first six
months of life, there was saving of
over per cent of the corn by feeding
1t in the ear instead of Smelling and
soaking it; saving Of over Is per cent
to "a per cent by feeding it In the ear
instead of Smelling and grinding it.
After the hogs reached 200 pounds
in weight, however. soaked shelled in
season was the most profitable form In
which to feed the corn Soaked corn
meal came next in rank Farm and
Fireside.

THE DEMOCRACY AND ITS
OPPORTUNITY.

Not since the days of Tilden or
Cleveland has the Democracy OF the
Nation had a greater opportunity
for a triumph than is now offered
and is within reach.
Is this opportunity to elect a
Democrat President of the United
States to be frittered away, or Will
the leaders of the party be equal to
the responsibility from which must
come success or defeat.
1t is no longer preference as TO
men. 1t is neither Clark as faV-
orite nor Wilson as an opportunlst,
but which one of the two candidates
gives the greater assurance OF sue
cess.
The people are in revolt. The
people are demanding a change. The
peoples displeasure over existing
condition has been manifested on
the Republican side by the rally to
Roosevelt.
The people on the Democratic
side are leaning towards Wilson as
Indicated by the votes polled for
him in Ohio, Indiana and other
States of the Union.
The people, the independent
classes who are conservative and
who decide the election, are hest
tating and they are waiting. 1t is
upon this class that the triumph OF
Democracy must rest. Will this
class go to Clark or will it go to
Wilson?
The indications are against Clark,
and if Clark were nominated it
would seem impossible for him to
defeat Roosevelt, who may be the
Republican candidate for the presi-
dency.
The only logical and sensible con-
clusion which. should be reached is
in nominating for the presidency
the strongest man on the Demo
cratic side, and this man is Gov.
ernor Wilson of New eJrsey.
To fail to nominate Wilson is to
invite certain defeat.
If the Democracy is a party rep
resenting the people it should be in
full touch and in full sympathy
with the people.
As between Roosevelt and Wilson
the people, the great mass of the
independent and conservative class
will choose Wilson.
