THE QUESTION OF THE HOUR.
Business is Business. and a Demo-
cratic Administration Will
Affect 1t.

Mr.. Wage Garner
Compare your wages with wage.
in 1898 to 1897.
Compare the plentifulness of work
now with 1898 to 1897.
- Mr.. Farmer:
Compare the prices you are now
receiving for your products with
prices received in 1893 to 1897.
Compare the extent of your market
now with the extent of your market
in 1898 to 1897.
Mr.. Businessman:
Compare your sales now with your
sales in 1898 to 1897.
Compare the quality of goods sold
to your customers now with the quail
ity of goods sold in 1893 to 1897.
Compare your cash account and
the security of your credits now
with 1893 to 1897.
Mr.. Voter:
Compare the condition of the coun-
try under the system of the protec-
tive tariff, which the Republican
party reinstalled when it was re-
turned to power in 1897, with the
hopeless and helpless condition of
the country under a tariff for rev.
enue only which was in force under
the Democratic administration of
1898 to 1897.
Mr.. American Citizen:
On election day remember your
own interests and vote for your own
welfare.

Say. Mr.. Reader 4?

Have you noticed that for several
weeks we have been giving you a
newspaper and half? Twelve
pages, every line set and printed in
this office, full of live city, county,
state and national news? We well
come comparison with any weekly
newspaper in Iowa We know this
is footing our own horn, but we
think we have right to-. We just
want you to appreciate the fact that
nothing is sighted in this office.
When advertising is plentiful, we add
extra pages, SO as to have space for
all the news that's fit to print.

The One Campaign Slogan.

The St. Louis Times, a newspaper
that is Independent in politics, lays
considerable stress upon the follow
ing statements, made by man who
is prominent in business:
This country has suffered a period
of hard times which is now on the
point of giving way to a period OF
prosperity We will not have this
prosperity, however, if we do any ex-
perimenting in our government. The
business of the country, from that of
the humblest farmer and tradesman
to that of the biggest farmer and
manufacturer and merchant, will be
best served by the reelection of Mr..
Taft"
That is really all the issue there is
in this campaign and the only ques-
Ftion that needs to be argued much
during the closing weeks of this ex-
traordinary political canvass.
The one question remains: Shall
we at the height of our prosperity
begin experimenting with theories of
government and trade that have al
ways proved disastrous.
We know there are some who are
now saying that it will not happen
that way again-but how do they
know? What assurance can they
give us?
Why risk change at this timer
