LIQUOR ON TRIAL AGAIN.

"Crazed by liquor" is the way the
dispatch from Galesburg opens its
report of the killing of his three chill.
dren and the wounding of his wife by
w. w. Stormberg, the proprietor of a
large confectionery store. 1t is a very
common expression. 1t often appears
in press reports. Why the frequency?
1t deserves investigation.
What good did liquor ever do that
man?
Did it make his family happier?
What benefit was it to the COM
munity in which he lived?
How did the traffic ever help Gales
burg as town, morally, socially or in
a business way?
If liquor never did Stromberg, or his
family, or the town any good; and if
as no one can honestly dispute, it has
done great harm, why not Danish 1t,
not only by law, as far as that can go,
but by individual action; Oy personal
abstinence and by discouraging the
traffic and the use of intoxicating
beverages in every way possible ?

CAMPAIGN ARGUMENTS ARE SOON
FORGOTTEN.

G. w. Ramseyer, republican candi-
date for congress, calls attention to
the value of democratic campaign
promises as follows:
Two years ago our democratic
friends told us that the high cost OF
living was due to the protective tariff.
The universal prosperity of the coun-
try was admitted, but to reduce the
tariff on the articles of consumption
would enable the consumer to live
more cheaply and save a greater por-
ton of his earnings. The promised
tariff reduction came and the conse-
quent results with which you are all
familiar, but on the other hand the cost
of living has not been lowered and the
chief campaign argument of two years
ago is now never mentioned by our
opponents.

UNDERWOOD TARIFF A FAILURE.

UNDERWOOD TARIFF A FAILURE.
The revised tariff has been in force
for year, or nearly so, and no Amer
lean table at breakfast, lunch, dinner
or supper has seen an egg, a beefsteak,
chop, slice of bread, a bit of butter
or any other edible or potable thing
sold at fraction of cent cheaper
than under the high tariff.
The putting of raw material on the
free list came with promise to stimu-
late American industries by importing
this from abroad, and this other false
prophecy has not been fulfilled in a
single instance American business
has been stagnant all over the coun-
try, in spite of plenty of money, good
crops and every other stimulus that
might be given to business. Imports
and exports are both smaller and
dwindling lower and lower.
And this has always been so. When
ever American industries have been
protected they have prospered. When
ever the American people have been
generally employed at good wages
they have bought domestic and foreign
goods and kept the wheels turning
at home and abroad. America is one
of the most populous countries in the
world; it's people spend more than
any other people in the world, and
when they prosper all the world pros
pers with them, and when depression
hits our shores it spreads like the
plague in overwhelming circles until
it embraces the world-Walnut Cove

COMPRISING FAILURE.

The taxation issue as the democrats
have made it is already deep into the
campaign in Iowa. Few people realize
as yet how oppressive the taxes will
be when they are in full operation. The
democrats wisely put off applying
their enormous and inexcusable taxes
until the last days before election SO
that the people would be fooled about
them until it is too late.
Now they are seeking to have Iowa
Endorse and approve the policies of
'tthe administration chief of which is
high taxation.
This taxation question is not fully
indorsed even by all the democrats
selves. It has received the strongest
condemnation from one of the staunch-
est democratic newspapers of the
country. On Oct. the Cincinnati En-
quirer, one of the ablest and Oldest Of
democratic newspapers advised "the
administration" to drop it's program for
war taxes in time of peace, saying:
"This is the odious process of the
middle ages this is the form of taxa
ton that was practiced by the over
lords, the robbing barons, princes and
sovereigns of the European and Asiatic
continents in the days when liberty
was unknown and tyranny was univer-
sal; this is the process that prevents
progress, stiles prosperity, hinders the
expansion and extension of commerce,
that blights industry and compels bad
times.
''The democratic party, in time of
peace, through failure of it's tariff legis-
lation to produce sufficient revenue to
cover the expenses of the government,
now goes on record as confessing that
failure by bringing forward a tax
measure calculated to compel the bust
ness interests of the United States to
pay $10OO0O,000 per annum into the
treasury of the republic.
''This is a confession of a legislative
failure, it is confession of financial
blunder in legislation; it is new rec
ord, poor record, fatal record for
the party in power to make when it
has to go before the people for approx
al of such a huge new tax at time
when it congratulates itself as preserv-
ing peace for the republic both at home
and abroad.
Throughout Latin America the en-
tire theory of taxation is that of max
ing the active business of the county
bear the burden of the costs of govern
ment, and this Mexican system is now
finding favor with the democratic lead
ers who propose this war tax when
there is no war, even to protect our
citizens abused and insulted, humiliat-
ed and robbed in foreign lands.
"1'he democratic declaration of
tariff for revenue only should have
been adhered to in letter and in form,
,, and that tariff should have been made
sufficient in it's provisions to have pro-
duced the revenue required to run the
government Let that tariff be revised
now: let it be made a greater revenue
producer; better a confession of the
failure of revision by agreeing to
amend than by this effort to tax the ac
tive business interests of the United
States"

THINK BEFORE VOTING.

The Daily Times of Davenport, Iowa,
gives some pertinent things for the
voters to think about before voting, in
q recent editorial advocating the cleo
ton of the republican candidate for
congress in the second district of
which Davenport is a part. The same
reasons apply just as we'll in the sixth
district where G. w. Ramseyer is the
republican candidate for congress.
The Times says:
The second congressional district
should 20 on record at the election on
Nov. 8 in regard to whether it ap-
proves o. the present uncertainty in
business most of which had become
pronounced before the European war
broke out and for which that war is
not to blame The uncertainty in bust
ness is largely traceable to the demo
cratic tariff policy. A vote for Harry
Hull, the republican candidate, will
be, among other things:
A protest against the taking of the
tariff off of agricultural products.
A protest against throwing tens of
thousands out of employment
A protest against the unnecessary
100000, 900 direct tax.
A protest against the extravaganza
Of the democratic congress.
A protest against the attempt to
inject politics into the management
OF the postofices of the whole country
A protest against the failure of the
democratic party to reduce the high
cost of living as promised.
The following voters should vote for
Harry Hull:
The farmer-because he wishes to
keep out Argentina corn and other
products that hit his pocketbook.
The observation-disclosures he wants

WANTS GOOD ROADS.

In recent speech, G. W. Ramseyer,
candidate on the republican ticket for
seat in congress as representative OF
the sixth Iowa district, said:
"The subject of good roads is of
vital interest to all farmers. Con-
.gress has the right to give federal aid
for the improvement of our rural mail
routes. Take some of the money out
of the pork. barrel and put it into
good roads. If the farmers will insist
on their rights they will find the fed
