wide-awake PittSburg paper.
For SO many years have certain
editors been penning screeds
about democratic depression
and hard times that now it has
become a matter of fixed habit.
They have been at It so long
that they can now dash off a
column without any conscious
mental processes and they will
not weakly yield that which
has for years filled a maximum
of space with a minimum of ef-
fort.
If it is admitted in the rock
ribbed republican state of
PENNSYLVANIA that the time to
discredit the old campaign cry
has come, then there can be no
doubt of it. But it's a pretty
safe bet that there are at least
two papers in Oregon who will
be blind to the handwriting on

THE PASSING OF A CAM
PAIGN CRY

nS the prosperity" cam
paign cry, employed so
long and so tirelessly by
the republican press and stump
orators, to be banished to the
realm of things outwOrn. Judg-
ing from a recent editorial in
the Pittsburg Gazette-T Times, a
stalwart republican journal, a
death blow has been dealt to
this mouthword of a great
party.
That paper admits having
made use Of this prosperity"
stuff in years gone by and hav-
ing done so with glee. 1t has
aided in the laborious effort OF
trying to tie the empty dinner
pail to the tail of the democrat
ic donkey. But" that paper
now says:
Republicans must take it
all back now. Wages are on
the up grade. The democratic
party is clearly the party OF
business. It is being vindicat-
ed. If any unregenerate re-
publican so much as alludes to
the thread-bare campaign cry
about a defective tariff system
or to the depressing conse-
auences of democratic domina-
ton he will be referred to the
statistics applying to exports.

differences; establish a World
Court able to enforce its de.
crees by an international police

a peace to last fifty years at
