Plain Letters by a Plain Man

To Messrs. Vance C. Mccormick and
A. Mitchell Palmer,
Gentlemen:
You are now candidates in our
State Tor prominent and responsible
positions. 1t is understood that
you have been specially selected by
President Wilson as the eXponents
of his policies. Yeu were foremost
IN securing his nomination and
ally endorsed the present Demo
cratic administration.
On the stump you have been Bit
ter In your denunciation of candi-
dates opposed to you and of officials
These men whom you denounce are
able and intelligent men who have
made honorable records in various
positions and they are capable,
doubtless, of taking care of them
selves in any controversy.
The great mass of the citizen
snip of our Commonwealth are the
common people, unblessed with vast
hereditary fortunes or princely
reVenues-men who must work and
work hard in the various lines of
toll to earn a livelihood
These people are little interested
in your personal dislike of those
whose views differ from your own,
but they are greatly interested in
the ever increasing cost of living
under the present Democratic ade
ministration. In 1912, the Demo-
cratic campaign orators. headed by
candidate Wilson. himself, fairly
quivered with emotion as they went
from place to place and told how
Democratic success would speedily
be followed by a new tariff that
would be boon to the poor man.
The Democratic success came. The
new tariff promptly followed But
the cost of living was increased,
not reduced We who must calcu-
late closely on the expenditure of
every one of our few dollars, know
1t to our sorrow.
Under Democracy and its tariff
there has been a reduction in reve-
nueS, in business, in wages, in en-
ployment, but not in the cost of
living.
Would it be asking too much.
pause in your trades against indi-
viduals you dislike long enough to
tell us why this is, and to tell 1t in
language so plain that the plain
common people can understand it?
We care nothing about fine
spun theories. We would like to
know why Democratic promises to
the working man have proved
false. We would like to know why
more platform of 1912 on which
the party rode into power, has been
shattered and ignored by the men
who made it,
VIII you answer the questions to
be propounded in few letters?
These questions will refer to vari-
Gus matters of governmental policy
during the twenty months your
party has had absolute control.

FRIDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 10
"WATCHFUL WAITING"

TT is announced that President Will
son will soon send out a letter to
- Oscar Underwood. the Democratic
leader in Congress, for campaign
purposes. This letter will set forth
that no further regulatory business
legislation will be attempted by this
administration. but that instead the
next session will turn its attention to
constructive work on legislation for
the development of the country S
natural resources.
This is the same sort of promise
and pledge which was given the busi-
ness men of the country in the cam
paign two years ago by the present
occupant of the White House. He as
sured the apprehensive business in
terests of the United States that
nothing would be done to interfere
with legitimate business and that the
revision of the tariff would be gradual
and effected in such a way as to inter-
fere as little as possible with the re-
adjustment of trade.
How we'll this promise was kept is
evident now in widespread business
depression and thousands of working
men thrown into idleness through a
Democratic free-trade law jammed
through Congress without even the
pretense of reasonable consideration
or hearing of those most vitally con-
cerned.
What hope can the business and
io1 int
forthcoming letter will be anything
more than another campaign sugar.
coated pellet to be distributed for
campaign purposes only and as a tenn
porary sedative for the upset business
community.
An administration that repudiates
pledges and platform promises with
out blinking an eye can hardly be
trusted with power to do further dam
age to the country in the imposition
of unnecessary taxes and the closing
of industrial plants while working men
and women suffer.
Pennsylvania is in a way the chosen
battle ground of the Wilson forces.
The President has personally selected
candidate for United States Senator
and another for Governor and now
asks the voters of this great industrial
Commonwealth to elect them as an
evidence of the approval of his
policies.
If the voters of Pennsylvania are
satisfied with present conditions and
want them to continue. then they
should vote for Palmer and McCor-
mick. If, however, they have had
enough OF experimental legislation and
the broken promises of an adminis-
tration, then there is only one course
to pursue-to vote the Republican
ticket and restore Republican policies
''Watchful waiting is now very gen.
orally and properly applied to the
thousands of industrial workers who
are watchfully waiting for something
to turn up that will give them employ
ment and the opportunity to support
their families.

MORE INCONSISTENCY

IT requires colossal nerve, not to say
gall, for the Democratic machine
: candidate for Governor to issue
circulars claiming all the credit for
the important municipal improve
ments in this city since 1902. He is
careful not TO say that he instructed
his publicity representatives to keep
him in the background regarding the
improvements so that he might not
lose the support of those voters who
were against them.
But this offense is no worse than
his double shutting on practically
every other issue in the campaign.
Consistency has no place in his des-
perate struggle for votes to prevent
the avalanche of humiliation that is
now sliding toward him.

AN AWFUL FAMILY ROW

From the Boston Herald.
In little company of exceptionally
intelligent ladies and gentlemen where

a small wager that no one of his guests
could give accurately the family re-
tween the rulers of the three Empires
now at war among themselves. The
wager was accepted, but 1t was not
won by any of those who accepted it
In order to win it would have been
necessary to trace the several relation
ships as follows: King George of Eng
land, and Kaiser William of Germany
are first cousins, King Georges father
and the Kaiser's mother having been
brother and sister. King George and
Car Nicholas of Russia. are also first
cousins, the Kings mother, Dowager
Queen Alexandra. and the Cars
mother, Dowager Empress Dagmar, be-
ing sisters. King George of England
cousins. the formers father and the
latter's mother having been brother and
sister. Kaiser William and the Czarina
of Russia are also first cousins, the
mother being sisters. Thus the Kaiser
and the Car are first cousins by mar
riage. Frederick VIII of Denmark
is brother of the Dowager Queen Alex
mar and is. therefore, uncle to both
King George and Car Nicholas. There
are various other collateral relation
ships existing between the reigning
families of England. Germany and
Russia through the reigning families of
other European countries, but those

mind all these close relationships exist
