Included in the speech Of Senator James
Hamilton Lewis of Illinois at a banquet
Of democratic members Of the Missouri
legislature tonight
"Ex-President Taft" he said I'm an
address in New York. called attention 10
the fact that in 1910 this nation was on
the eve of revolution.
"Thc answer is that the republican
masters had so administered this govern

Competition Throttled.
Competition in the arts of mankind
was throttled. and in the race OF life men
were hobbled and an attempt was made
TO gag them to prevent them from crying
out their grievances. In high quarters Il
was proposed that armies be established
to barricale every factory and to turn
every municipality into fort for the
suppression Of revolt against oppression
which the citizen was suffering.
This is the state to which policies OF
the republican masters had brought this
republic
ITO remedy such state the democracy
vas called TO power. Notwithstanding
the treachery in his own party, the re-
lentless obstruction OF organizations call
ing themselves republican. and the ty-
ranny Of large business was rebelling
because its privilege OF exploiting the
American public. looting corporate treas
uries. defiing legislatures and corrupting
the courts had been destroyed. despite
this, the president and his administration
moved on and mankind will witness that
IL has carried out its promises to a greater
extent than has any other administration
since the civil war.
Record of Administration.
The democratic administration dissi-
pated the money monopoly. scattered the
money trust barons and sent them TO
outer darkness. These distinguished mas
ters meet to bewail the misery OF the
country. but among themselves chuckle
with delight at the contemplation of once
again going into power in the name OF a
political party, where they can further
loot railroads. rob banks, in the name Of
insurance companies take the funds of
widows and orphans. defile legislatures.
corrupt courts, debase the republic and
bring the nation again to the extreme Of
what eX-President Taft aptlv described
as the verge Of revolution"

A DETERMINED WOMAN Finally Found Food that Helped Her


 When first read of the remarkable effects of Grape-Nuts food, I deter mined to secure some" says a Mo woman. At that time there was none kept in this town, but my husband ordered some from commercial traveller.
 T had been greatly ahiicted with sudden attacks of cramps, nausea, and Vomiting. Tried all sorts of remedies and physicians, but obtained only tenn porary relief As soon as began to use Grape Nuts the cramps disap- peared and have never returned.
 My old attacks of sick stomach were a little slower to yield, but by continuing the food, that trouble' has disappeared entirely. I am today per- fectly well, can eat anything and everything I wish, without paying the penalty that used to. We would not keep house without Grape- Nuts.
 K. My husband was so delighted with the benefits received that he has been recommending Grape-Nuts to his cus- toners and has built up a very large trade on the food. He sells it to many of the leading physicians of the county, who recommend Grape-Nuts very Ren- eTaily. There. Is some satisfaction in using a really scientifically prepared food" There's Reason.''6 Name given by. Postum Go, Battle Creek, Mich.

RECOGNITION OF cARRANzA
 GOVERNMENT LIKELY.
By the United States Within the Next
 Few Weeks

Washington, Oct. s.-Recognition of the Carranza government in Mexico, it was learned in official circles yester- day, is likely to be accorded by the United States within the next few weeks.
 Data submitted by the revolutionary factions is being considered now and next Saturday. the conference of Pan- American diplomats presided over by Secretary Lansing will be held as planned three weeks ago. The sec will report their opinions on the "ma- terial and moral capacity of the fac- t1ons claiming recognition. It gem erally Is believed that the intention of the United States in respect to rec ognition will be communicated by dip- lomats here to their governments so that action may be taken by other na- tions at the seme time.
 While the discussion may not be terminated at Saturdays meeting and another may be held next week, the general belief is that some announcer ment eventual will be made by the conference stating which faction should be accorded recognition.
 Some diplomats are said to believe that no faction has met the standard for nestablished government and to advise a continuance of the policy of waiting. Ofhcia1s-of the Washfngton government, however, are understood to believe that such a course would only add t othe conditions of chaos in Mexico with further fighting. after which there would be no certainty that an ideal government would be created.
