A porter likes nothing better than
to steal the whisk broom out of the

Porters are also absent minded.
While thinking about their wrongs,

In general way the presidential
fight of 1912 parallels that of 1892,
with certain important differences.
Twenty years ago Harrison was re-
nominated by much the same ele-
,ments that named Taft this year
dIarrison's chief coHpetitor was
Blaine, the strongest single figure
In the party and the man who had
made Harrison's nomination posi-
Bile four years earlier. The SINH
larities to Roosevelt and the present
situation are obvious.
In 1892 there was o third party
newly organized, as there will be
this year. The important difference
is that Blaine did not head the new
party ticket then, but that Rooss-
Welt assuredly will now. The Peo-
pies party made its strongest ap-
peal In the west, as will be true Of
the Progressive party.
Grover Cleveland was the Demo-
cratic candidate in 1892. He was
born in New Jersey and died there,
although elected from New York.
This year Woodrow Wilson, the
Democratic candidate. halls from
New Jersey.
This Is a fairly close parallel,
about the closest to be found be-
tween any two presidential elections
In our history A further resem-
blance is to be found in the fact
that the Mckinley tariff bill was
one of the chief issues In 1892, Just
as the Payne-Aldrich tariff bill! is
this year.
It Is an interesting fact that a
new party of considerable proper
tions and protesting TO represent
the peoples rights has arisen In the
United States about every twenty
years. In 1854 1t was the Repuhli-
can party: In 1874. the Greenback
party. which polled at one time
really million votes and aloctcd
many governors and members OF
congress: in 1892 came the Poo
