FARMERS SHOULD

SENATOR GARDNER'S VIEWS.

The Maine Statesman. Himself
Farmer. Declares That President
Taft Would Continue to Tax Farmers
of the United States and at the Same
Time Compe! Them to Compete With
Canadian Farmers.
The reasons why those engaged in
agricultural pursuits should support
Governor Woodrow Wilson for presi-
dent are strongly set forth by Senator
Obadiah Gardner of Maine In an ad-
dress to farmers.
Senator Gardner is practical farm
or one who farms his own farm, and
he is probably in closer touch and sym
pathy with country life and its en-
yironments than any other man in pub
lie life.
For twenty-five years Senator Gard
ner has been actively interested III

he was the master of the state grange
of Maine. A few years ago he came
within close margin of being elected
governor Of the Pine Tree State.
A little less than a year ago, when
Senator Frye. who had represented
Maine in the senate for thirty years,
died. Governor Plaisted honored Mr..
Gardner and recognized the agricui-
tural interests of the country by ap-
pointing him to the United States SEN
ate, where he has made a most credit
able record. devoting particular atten-
ton to the welfare of the great rural
population of the country. He is now
a candidate for reelection and will un-
doubtedly be successful
In his address Senator Gardner says:

part of my life having been engaged In

SCHIFF TO VOTE FOR WILSON

Jacob H. Schif, who has been
affiliated with the Republican
party for four decades, has issued
a statement explaining why he
intends this year to vote for
Woodrow Wilson. After point
ing out that he believes it is time
there was a thorough change of
administration, Schif says:
President Taft, four years,
ago, entered the White House
with the hearty good will of al
most all classes of our people
but also with our firm expecta-
ton that he would succeed in
eradlcating, in part at least.
some of the serious, constantly
growing differences which had
gradually arisen between class
and class, and which are tending
to force the country into a latent
social crisis.
Governor Wilson, if elected,
Will enter upon his high duties
relatively free from partisan
pledges; will bring into the pres
ldentlal office mind ably train
ed In economics and sociology,
FULLY conversant with the needs
OF the country at the present, in
many respects, critical junction,
and he will, moreover, go into
the White House, as near as this
is possible, with the confidence
of all classes and sections of the
country in his ability to better
existing conditions.
Because of my firm expectation
that Woodrow Wilson will develop
a better and more thorough I'M
derstanding of the present needs
of the country than, in my opin-
ion, President Taft has shown
during the past four years I shall
support his election.
