But for the spirit OF enterprise and
progressiveness engendered By re-
publican state administration it is
doubtful whether bonds for a new cap
itol would have been voted. Had the
bourbons been in power for the three
years preceding the destruction of the
old state house its ruins might have
remained undisturbed till a cheap cap
itol could be constructed. That would
have been in keeping with the spirit
that dominated the state government
under democratic rule. Although the
democrats are again in possession Of
the state government they cannot pre-
vent the construction Of a magnificent
new capitol, if they would; and it is
gratifying to know that the first S ate
administration 10 occupy the new build
ing for full term is likely to be re-
publican, although it may be com
pleted in time for the present demo
cratic administration TO furnish the
Offices and open the great structure to

A Clear indication.

The congressional election in the
Portland district in Maine on Septem-
Der 9Th was won by the republicans
on national issues, with no local or
personal considerations to outweigh
the purely political considerations in
volved. The total vote was SO, ,l76,
an increase of 1854 over the total vote
at the November election in 1912,
when progressive, republican and dem
ocratic candidates were in the field,
just as they were September 9th. The
progressive vote last year $500 more
than this year, while this year the re-
republican vote was 5000 more than
last year. In other words, the
progressives lost $500 votes in the
district in less than a year, and the re-
publicans gained 5000. The demo,
Gratis lost slightly in the number Of
votes polled although they made ex'
traordinary efforts to carry the district,
Last year they elected their candidate
by large plurality. He died a few
months ago.

As fair wages could not be paid Amer
leans unless the products Of their labor
could be sold in American markets
higher than the products OF foreign
labor, a tariff was placed upou the
products Of foreign labor seeking sale
in this country. That gave 10 Amer
lean manufacturers home market in
which they could dispose Of their pro-
ducts at fair prices and tlus enabled
them to pay fair wages. Under The

party Those who assail that policy
are fighting the battle Of foreigners,
not the cause Of Americans. Several
times the democratic party has let
down the bars erected by the repub-
lcau party against competition and
each time our country has suffered
from lowered wages, cheap products

lands decreased in value, factories were
stopped OF run on a limited scale,
farmers could not realize fair prices for
their crops, and the capital cl thrifty

Protection Of American Labor.

The republican party has always
been committed to the policy Of pro-
tectiug those who must live by their
labor. The menace to American free
labor, since the abolition OF slavery in
the southern states, has been the cheap
and subservient labor OF other countries.
To permit the product Of such labor
to enter our markets in competition
with the products Of home labor vas
equivalent 10 the impoverishment Of
American labor. The republican party
adopted the theory that American labor
must be properly paid or il would be-
come as dependent on the favors Of the
rich and as subservient to conditions as
the cheap labor Of older counties.

by 1914, at the present rate of con
structon. It is held that the improve
ment OF roads adds $4,000 per mile
to contiguous property. and on this
basis the building Of the river.to-the.
gulf highway will give a net increase
in property values to property along
this roadway Of $4O0,OO0,00O
The counties through which this
highway will pass are Galveston, Har-
ris, Waller, Brazos, Robertson, Falls,
Limestone, McLennan, Hill, Navarro,
Johnson, Ellis, Tarrant, Dallas, Den
ton. Collin, Grayson and Cooke, the
road to be double.tracked from Hearne

Another highway Of state impor-
tanCe is the Dallas.Texarkana high
way, beginning at Dallas and passing
through the counties of Collin, Gray
son. Fanrin, Lamar, Red River and
Bowie. which will cost approximately
100000. There are 2104 miles of pub.
lie highways in these countries, and
the building of the trunk line will
probably result in the improvement OF
the entire mileage Of the counties. as
we'll as stimulate road building in
counties adjoining the project.

With the exception Of the engineer,
the work can be handled easily by Ia

ranges from s15 to $50 a mile, depend

road, the width graded, and the price
Of labor.

Americans Want Prosperity.

Whatever seemingly reasonable and
attractive theories may have been, or
may be, advanced by those who op'
pose a protective tariff, experience has
demonstrated that it promotes Amer
ican prosperity and that is what
American voters want. They will listen
TO theories and sometimes are deceived
by the promises Of men who can theorize
better than they can perform, but when
theory applied TO the policy Of the
government lowers wages, stops lac
tories, cheapens farm products and
brings on hard times the people turn
again to the policy Of protection and
ask for relief. They are doing that
now, even before the democratic anti
tariff law, enacted under the whip OF a
party caucus, and signed by the presi-
dent, has become effective. They
know what is coming, for they have
seen it come before. The American
people want a tariff that will shut out
the products Of foreign capital and for.
eign labor and assure living wages and
good living conditions to the working
people Of their own country, including
the farmers; and they will soon restore
TO power the only party that has ever
given them what they want.

Oar safe, which is one of your No

After blowing of both the outer and

practically all of the windows were de
