Don't Forget Hold Some Display the County Fair

II majority Of the congressman from
any state are republicans they will cast
| the vote OF their state. So Inc eiec
ton will be determined by the states.
In the present house the vote will be
practically even, twenty states having
majority Of republican congressman
and twenty-five majority Of demo
cratic congressman, while six states
are "tied''--that is, each Of six states
has an even number Of democratic and
republican congressman. Under these
circumstances it will be hard for the
house to choose either Taft, Wilson or
Roosevelt. But there is little need
OF predicting what the house will do.
The people will elect the president
and his name will be VIM. Howard Taft.
Political orators will not crate much
beIor September IS.
The progessives hope to break the
Solid South. That may be done with
out detriment TO the republican party.
The Roosevelt party put strong
equal suffrage plank in its platform to
please the women Of the west who are
to vote this year.
Major, Gordon and Roach now have
full control Of the democratic party in
Missouri and will handle it for their
own purposes till the people give them
notice in November to vacate.

Col. Roosevelt to all propositions to CO.

own.

republican party and believe it is
"bossed," try the party OF one boss
only, whose big stick is his most con-
yincing argument Tor harmony among
his followers.
The protective policy Of the repub-
lican party is Of more value 10 farmers,
wage earners, manufacturers and capi,
talists than all Of the alleged reforms,
lads and iurbelows Of the democrats
and progreSsiyes combined.
The republicans of Missouri have
nominated clean, strong ticket and
they are ready to vouch for every man
on it. No citizen can find substantial
objection to the republican state ticket.
1t is good from top to bottom.
The man who has the confidence Of
the voters OF his own party is apt TO
win the confidence OF other voters.
John c. Mckinley has never violated
or shaken the confidence Of the repub
lican voters Of Missouri. They believe
in him, hence they can safely recon-
e. mend him.
: Governor Hadley having removed
his family to Kansas City, Messrs
Major, Roach and Gordon cannot har
rass him this fall by turning the heat
off at the mansion. That contempt
. ible trick was played but once, yet i
will ever be remembered by the people
Of Missouri.
