Secs Certain Victory,

Before Norman e. Mack sailed for
Europe he dictated a statement con
corning the political situation. He
does not believe that the Republicans
and the Progressives will get together
this fall or in 1916. and that In both
instances, victory will be certain for
the Democrats.
When Colonel Roosevelt made his
Pittsburgh speech" said Mr.. Mack
"he again threw down the gauntlet
to the Republican party and cleared
up the entire political situation.
"As a matter of fact, 1t was the
only thing left for Mr.. Roosevelt to dc
unless he wanted to repudiate all his
utterances from the day he arrived
at the Chicago convention. two years
ago. for the purpose of annihilating
the Republican party, which he ac.
complished at that time His Pitts
burgh speech showed his intention OF
continuing the fight to finish until
the Job is completed.
''The Republican party now is in
the same condition that the Demo.
cratic party was for 16 years, except
that Roosevelt expects to continue
the third party in existence, which
the contestants in the Democratic
party did not do from 1896 to 1908"

The United States Steel corporation
now has untitled orders ahead for more
than 100000 tons of its products. The
figure was 1898. 100 tons on May 81,
and there has been a steady increase
since that date.
This is an increase OF 25 per cent
over the average untitled orders during
1910 and 1911, when the Aldrich tariff
was in its glory. and "prosperlty"
was reigning by Wall street fiat. Sow.
according to the same financial cen
ter, there Is great depression" in bust

lation are declared responsible.

PRIZE FOOD.
PaIatabIe, Economical, NourishIng.

A Nebr. woman has outlined the
prize food in few words, and that
from personal experience. She
writes:
After our long experience with
rape-Nuts, cannot say enough in
its favor We have used this food al
most continually for seven years.
I'VE sometimes tried other adver-
tlsed breakfast foods but we invariably
returned to Grape-Nuts as the most
palatable, economical and nourishing
of all.
when I quit tea and coffee and
began to use Postum and Grape-Nuts,
was almost a nervous wreck. I was
so irritable could not sleep nights,
had no interest in life.
After using GrapeNuts a short
time began to improve and all these
ailments have disappeared and now |
am a we'll woman. My two children
have been almost raised on Grape
Nuts, which they eat three times a
day.
They are pictures of health and
have never had the least symptom OF
stomach trouble, even through the
most severe siege of whooping cough
they could retain Grape-Nuts when all
else failed.
"Grape-Nuts food has saved doctor
bills, and has been, therefore, a most
economical food for u.s.

The Pennsylvania railroad has or
dered 100000 tons OF steel rails. This
oroer was divided among five steel
making corporations: The steel trust.
and the Pennsylvania, Cambria. Lack
awanna and Bethlehem Steel COM
panies.
The division OF such an order proves
that the road needs the rails in q
hurry. 1t has held OF from ordering
them Just as long as possible: 1t
needs them now in rush time to take
care Of the increase OF business which
has already begun.
Part OF this hold-off policy, no doubt,
was due to genuine apprehension as
to future legislation. More, 1t is to
be feared. was designed to put pres
sure on the administration and the
interstate commerce commission, as a
means of forcing favorable action on
railroad demands. How long this plan
OF bulldozing would have been fol.
lowed under ordinary conditions. no
one can tell.
In this case, the near approach Of
a boom in business has warned OBJ
structfonists to get out of the way.
and the Pennsylvania railroad Is too
well managed an institution to be the
last to heed that warning
