DEMOCRATIC CAMPAIGN BOOK

The High Cost of Living" is
the keynote of the Democratic
textbook for 1912. issued by the
Democratic National Committee.
The fallacy of protective tariff is
exposed in series of articles pre-
pared by, experts who made
special study of the numerous
schedules of the Payne-Aldrich Bill.

is attacked from every angle. 1t is
the most comprehensive and care
fully prepared exposure of its kind
ever made for any political text
book.
The trusts are taken care Of in
an liable fashion. There is an
article bristling with new facts
concerning the famous absorption
Of the Tennessee Coal & Iron Com
pany by the United States Steel
Corporation in 1907; the report of
the Harvester Trust, which Presi-
dent Roosevelt held up at the
request of George Perkins,
together with the correspondence
thereon, are published in full.
The result of the Stanley investiga-
ton of the United State Steel
Corporation is taken care of in two
articles,-'The Greatest of Trusts
and How Interests Control"
The Interesting textures of the
book are 1.-The True Roosevelt, by
William H. Taft" and "TEe True
Taft, by Theodore Roosevelt"
These articles are simply compila-
tions of extracts from the speeches
Of these two men delivered in 1908
and 1912. They make a novel and
amusing exhibit.
r, The data on the life and work of
Governor Wilson and Governor
Marshall is very complete. The
story of the formers life was
written by William Bayard Hale,
the widely known magazine writer.
The laws that these two man have
caused to be enacted for the benefit
of labor, and the public health, are
treated specially. There are many
other articles giving information
concerning practically every sub
ject that may be discussed in the
campaign.
In getting out The book so early,
the Democratic National Commit
tee has not only beaten the Re-
publican and Third Term parties
but has broken all democratic re-
cords. In former campaigns this
book has appeared the later part
of September or the 1st of October.
The Text Book Committee which
had charge of the preparation of
the book was composed of Josephus
Daniels, chairman of the bureau of
publicity; James T. Llyod, Chair
man of the Democratic Congress
sional Committee; and Robert
Wickliffe Woolley; the latter was
the editor in charge of the work.
geographically tie book is said
by experts to be the best one ever

date set for the primaries, April 5, has
been discovered to fall on Good Friday
and on this account 1T is probable thai
a change will be made The county
