Roosevelt, When President, Failed t.

Once In his life Mr.. Roosevelt al
most expressed an opinion on the
tariff question. In preliminary draft
of one of his messages to congress
asHit came from the printer was this
sentence: in a later message | shall
discuss the tariff" On revising the
proof sheets of his message Mr.. Roose-
welt blue-penciled that line. And he
never came even that near to dis
GUESSING the question again as long
as he remained In the White House.
And yet the tariff law then on the
statute books was far more objection
able than the Payne law, which he
Is now 50 vigorously denouncing. Why
didn't IS revise the tariff the way
he nov says 1t ought to have been
when he had the power? He says now
he wants to AK 1t 30 that more of

Why didn't he "nx 1t" that way dur.

New gold, old gold, gold robe and crown.
With woodbine's scarlet gold to trace
it up and down;
Grape leaves glinting with a golden

Filigreed in silver gray in the frosty

Life il worth the living in the golden

Gold buds and gold blooms where the

This was written when Professor
Wilson was recording history as it
actually occurred and long before he
had any thought of being democratic
candidate for president. This was
written when he yet felt some pride in
tire part he had taken in redeeming
the country from the sad condition
which he describes by voting for
Presidant Mckinley in 1896. Yet we
find the professor today sta nding on
exactly the same platform and for the
same free trade policies upon which
Grover Cleveland stood when this
country was plunged into the disas-
trous condition which he so correctly
described in his history. Can it De
possible that the professor. by an
ambition to inhabit the white house,
has been caused to see things differ

humans are all susceptible to such
influences and it may not b. beyond
the range of possibilities that Prof.
Wilson is. However, Mr.. Voter, with

among other things says:

he has had the impression created that
he is a Norwegian because of his name

Nothing can be done that to our
democratic friends tends more to DIS
turb their peace of mind and cause
them to squirm, hem, haw and explain
than the slightest reference to the good
old democratic period from 1893 to
1897. In view of the time that has
elapsed STAGE this period was with US,
they now begin to rely upon the natu-
raj tendency of years to cause the
human memory to fade. They would
now have you believe that this period
was not really so bad after all. For
tunately, however, for those whose
memories may manifest symptoms of
tagging, Woodrow Wilson. the scholar,
historian and democratic cannidate for
president, wrote book called History
OF the American People," In this
book he writes about the period from
'93 to '97 and this is what he SAYS
about it:
"A great poverty and depress-
ion had come upon the western
mining regions and upon the
agricultural regions of the west
and south. Prices had fallen.
Men Of the poorer sort were
idle everywhere. and filed with
sort of despair. All the
larger cities knd manufacture

ployed wotkingmen, who were

President Taft's administration has
not been one Of talk and parade, Of
sensational assertion and show of au-
thority. But 1t has been an admins
tration OF hard work In quiet and
transformations ways. He has said
little. But he has done much. The
rising tide of business prosperity tes-
tifies to the wisdom and prudence Of
his administration, and to the conf.
dence which the business world has

VOTE CIRCLE AT TOP

There is a saying that "A half Loaf
is better than no Bread" we believe
that is literally true. Since the Huron
reput lican convention there have been
many members of the party who did
not know where they were going or
how they would vote because of the
fact that the gentlemen chosen as can
didates for electors upon the republi-
can ticket were all prominent Roose-
welt men and announced before the
convention that if elected they would
vote for him in the electoral colIes
This position started contention and
another meeting of republicans was
called at Mitchell this time stalwart
republicans. The Mitchell meeting
declared against the Roosevelt electors
and against any man on the state
ticket who did not come out openly
against the electors.
We took the position that both sides
were wrong. Now comes the presi-
Dental electors with a statement to
the effect that if elected THE first
choice will be for Roosevelt, but if the
contest is between Taft and Wilson in
the electoral college they will cast
their vote for Taft"
Every true blue republican believes
in protective tariff and there is no
hope for the continuance of tariff
should Wilson and a democratic con-
gress be elected except "For Revenue
Only" So the republican now has a
chance to vote for protective tariff
coupled with the hope that Mr.. Taft
will have a supremacy over Roose-
welt in number of electors and that the
South Dakota nominees, if elected, will
then support Taft in the electoral
college.
This prompts us to advise all who
believe in protective tariff, all who
have been satisfied with the times and
the prosperity of the past sixteen years
all who now enjoy the great benefits
in every line of trade, and every
farmer who has reaped a benefit by
''The advanced cost of living" by the
advance in everything he has raised
who has seen the price of his cattle,
hogs, poultry, eggs, butter, grain, hay.
in fact everything move along in price
under republican protection to make
him rich, to vote the republican ticket
with cross in the circle at the top.
We believe it is duty of every repub-
lican who voted in the primary election
no matter whether he is satisfied with
the statement made by the electors
nominated by the Huron convention or
MOTTO go to the polls and vote the
congressional, state and county tickets.
The primaries in South Dakota were
conducted fairly, squarely, honestly, and
each faction Of the party is now repre-
sented on all the tickets. We do not
have any hesitancy in saying that the
republican ticket, beginning with Taft
and Sherman and going down through
the whole line, congressional, state and
county, is the very best that was ever
put before the voters of Day county.
We hold that no honest republican can
go back on the nominees of the pri-
maries. If you can not and will not
vote for the electors, show your fair
ness and that you are honorable in poll
tics by voting the ticket nominated at
The June primaries. Do your sworn
iuty.

Honest and Brave,

From the Morristown, Pa, Herald.
Fair-minded people, even if they
