RIGHT HOME
Doctor Recommends Postum from Per
sonal Test.

No one is better able to realize the
injurious action OF caffeine-the drug
in coffee-on the heart. than the doc
tor. Tea is Just as harmful as coffee
because It, too. contains the drug caf-
feline.
When the doctor himself has been
relieved by simply leaving of coffee
and using Postum, he can refer with
full conviction to his own case.
A Mo. physician prescribes Postum
for many of his patients because he.
was benefited by 1t. He says:
II wish to add my testimony In re-
gard to that excellent preparation

nervous heart trouble for over 10
years, and q part of the time was un-
able to attend to my business.

did not think drinking It hurt me. But
on stopping 1t and using Postum In
stead. my heart has got all right, and
| ascribe It to the change from coffee
to Postum.
II am prescribing It now In cases Of
sickness. especially when coffee does
not agree. or affects the heart. nerves
Or stomach.
When made right It has q much bet
ter flavor than coffee. and ia a vital
sustainer Of the system. l shall con-
tinue to recommend It to our people,

PRESIDENT AND THE VETO
Taft's Wholly Unnecessary Defense

SO Mlsused.

Mr.. Taft at Columbus, O., under.
took to convince an audience that the
veto is a good thing AS II 1t had
ever been questioned! The president
at times seems afflicted with literal
myopia.
Mr. Taft has vetoed every measure
calculated TO bring relief TO the PEG
pie from excessive living costs. The
wool bill, the cotton and steel bills,
the meat bill, the farmers FREQ list
bill, all were killed by Taft's veto. He
has perpetuated the plundering OF the
people, And his defense is an AGA.
demic discussion OF presidential
function constitutlonally bestowed
To be sure, those bills came from a
Democratic house. But II was to that
same Democratic house Mr.. Taft's
reciprocity measure WIS committed.
The Democratic house might, in af-
feet, have vetoed the presidents bill
But It didn't. II thought that the bill
would serve the peoples welfare.
The Democratic house forgot politics
and undertook the public service, The
president didn't
President Taft might have vetoed
well. Had he vetoed the payne-Ald-
rich tariff bill he would have been
maker OF history. Great opportunity
has been his The qualities OF head
and heart that make for greatness are
not his.
He has vetoed his own succession.

CLEAR ILLUSTRATION OF It's
PRACTICAL EFFECTS.
PROTECTION RATE TOO HIGH
Labor Cost Of Production In This
Country Little More Than In En-
rope Notwithstanding Difference
In Wages.

We have received the following ap-
peal for light on the tariff:
Is this the Democratic idea of tho
tarir; That II the tarifr is taken of
hosiery the American product will be
Fundersold by the German because Il
can be produced cheaper IN that coun.
try than 1t can In tho United States
Would this be true of all things now

so Tar as we arc aware, the Demo
cratic party has never made any dec.
laratlon on hosiery, but we are glad
mat Item WAS specified because II
hhords a peculiarly clear and !ntelli.
gible illustration OF the practical ef.
tect OF tho tariff. Hosiery worth a
dollar dozen pairs in Germany IL
taxed under our tariff 60 cents and is
per cent, or rs cents. Omitting
freight and commissions and incl
dental charges. this hosiery. then,
could be sold here for $l.75 a dozen.
The census bulletins show that In
hosiery the wages constitute about
onefourth OF the value of the prod.
uct. On domestic stockings worth
sl7b a dozen. therefore. the total
labor cost would be about a cents.
The position OF the manufacturer,
then. is that where he pays ~ cents
to his working people he gets rs cents
OF protection. The Democratic party
does not believe that he needs any
such rate of protection. The labor
cost OF production In this country Is
little more than It is In Europe in
any line. and in many lines It is much
less. In the last fiscal year we ex.
ported more than a billion dollars
worth OF manufactured goods. In
July more than half OF the exports
were manufactured goods. or course.
II 1t cost more to produce manufacture.
ed goods here than In Europe we
could not export on any such scale
as this. The employees In our machine
shops get better wages than the men
In foreign machine shops, and yet ne
exported machinery to the value OF
$4,000, 900 in the last fiscal year
OF course, the Democratic party
does not believe that lowering duties
would close our mills and throw all
our people out OF employment. II II
did It would not advocate reducing
duties. The reports of the tarlff
board show, what students OF eco.
Monies knew before, that the labor
cost or production is often lowest
Tnere wages are highest, There ia 4
book on the efficiency OF labor, or the
relative costs OF labor where wages
are high and where they are low, by
Jacob Schoenhoff. There Is a volume
OF lectures on Work and Wages" by
Lord Brassey, and another book by
him on n similar subject, which, OF
course, have no specific reference to
our tariff. but are all the more val.
liable for that reason. They are dis
cussions OF the greater economy of
high.priced labor. Lord Brassey's ia.
Their built railroads In every part OF
the world. and he found that 1t made
little difference In the cost OF con.
struction whether he paid a shilling
in India, four shillings in France or
six shillings in England; IL there
were any difference the cost was low

they have gone through n process of
sanctificatlon 1t is precisely 30 with
McHarg. He was not boss when
he was doing for Roosevelt the work
OF a boss. But having broken rela-
tons with "the only perfect man" he
necessarily sinks to the boss level. We.
therefore, fully expect to hear him de-
nounced as an exponent OF crooked
politics" Even Penrose was "all

Mohara's View Of Roosevelt.

McHarg may have deserted Roose-
welt because he would not follow him
out of the Republican party, and he
may have substantial reasons for de-
sorting him. II is TO be remembered
that McHarg went into Roosevelt's
service after denounclng him as the
most dangerous man In our political
life, and declaring that he would not
vote for his candidate for governor of
New York two years ago.

The Tender Point.

In view OF the character OF the
Democratic nominee, the Democratic
platform and the present temper Of
Democratic leadership. why do not the
men In the Progressive movement
who really desire progress cast in
their lot with US?
There ia, we believe, Just one chief
reason: the Progressive alteration of
the protective principle in tariff max
ing.

ly championship the platform goes

to "equalizing conditions OF competi.

thing which the Democracy is espe-

eyes. The difficulty OF merging the
honest and sincere portion of the
Roosevelt following into the Wilson
following is precisely the difficulty OF
fusing two companies when the evil
angel OF the one 10 the good angel Of
the other.
