The Cooling Of the Worlds.

All bodies in space are gradually ap-
preaching frigidity. When a redhot
cannon ball is taken out of q furnace
and suspended in the air 1t parts with
its heat and keeps on parting with it
until it finally reaches the temperature
surrounding it And what happens to
the cannon ball is happening to the
sun. The sun is steadily losing its
heat and contracting. and the same is
true of the planets and of every other
body in space. Just as the arctic circle
is ever encroaching upon the temperate
and equatorial regions. so the final
chill is steadily advancing upon the
warmth everywhere. York Amer

LEAD ERSHIP.

Early in the campaign, The Demo
crat pointed out that Americans are a
jealous people. who want real leader,
and not follower. for their president.
Then Candidate Hughes showed signs
of following the Roosevelt leadership.
This time he is following again, and
following a good man, too, who is lead
ing in the right direction. He has fol-
lowed President Wilson in declaring
that he does not want the votes of those
who do not put America first. But he
has been so tardy in making this dec
laration that it will not help his case
very much.
They are looking to us to lead, !"
said Woodrow Wilson, governor of
New Jersey, to Francis E. McGovern,
governor of Wisconsin, in Milwaukee,
nearly half dozen years ago; and he
has worked over time as responsible
leader and wise lawgiver ever since.
Let US go to the polls and vote to keed
him at work.

PRlESTLEY FOR DISTRICT
ATTORNEY.

There is strong and growing feeling
throughout Iowa county in favor of the
election, of Thomas M !. Priestley for dis :
trict attorney. Although it is altogether
spontaneous, and entirely unorganized,
it is so general and hearty that it may
be fairly called the Priestley move
ment. The many who know how able
and faithful he is, and how we'll he
wears, strongly desire that he shall be
elected to serve the people of the coun-
ty as their lawyer.

ELLIOT'S WISE WORDS.

In an article on the Achievements
of the Democratic party" in the Octo
Der Atlantic, DR.. Charles w. Elliot,
president emeritus Of Harvard sup
ports in masterful way the national
administration; and in a recent supple
mentary statement, he supports Presi-
dent Wilson's policies up to date, in
Guiding the management of the threat
ened railway strike crisis. Out of his
we'll stored mind. DR.. Elliot is saying
things which ought to be read and
remembered by American citizens. The
following, for instance, in regard to
protectionism and the respective quail
ifications of the Democratic and Re-
publican parties to contribute by legis
lation to desirable industrial develop
ment:
Since 1880 the republican party has
been the party expected to confer
special privileges on manufacturers,
banking syndicates and groups of pro-
motors, this expectation being based on
the habitual republican process of
granting special privileges through the
tariff. The main policy of that party
has been protectionis1n, policy which
in practice at home gives a degrading
and enfeebling protection to some CAPT
tai, but cheats labor with a delusive
word and promises never fulfilled, and
abroad breeds between nations, heart
burnings and war. It is notorious that
wages are apt to be low and conditions
Of labor bad in protected industries
rather than in unprotected; because
the management or direction OF pro-
tected industries is apt to lack fore
sight, alertness and enterprise, since it
relies on the tariff to provide its profits.
The history of the democratic party
for generation past and it's present
state show that it is better qualified
than the republican party to contribute
to desirable industrial development
whatever political action is able to con-
tribute through wise laws and helpful
national administrations. The present.
leaders of the party thoroughly under
stand the imperative need of co opera
ton between capital and labor of
freedom for both the employer and the
employed. and of identity of motive for
zeal and energy in manager and opera
tive alike.
Now, read the above quotation again,
and compare it with the parrot like
talk of Governor Philip and Attorney
General Owen, about standing all their

dogs of privilege, repudiated as politi-
cal crooks by Roosevelt and the Pro-
gressives four years ago.
Who managed Hughes campaign in
the convention?
Taft's former campaign manager,
ex-Postmaster General Hitchcock,
whose function in previous conven-
tons has been the delivery of the
corrupt Republican delegates from
Southern States.
Who is supporting Hughes can
didacy?
Wall Street, the predatory trusts,
the tariff benefciaries, the seekers and
holders of special privilege, the ex-
ploiters of Mexico, the munition man
ufacturers, the railroads, the bankers,
united plutocracy, even its women

Democracy, who hope to prostitute
government for selfish gain.
What prominent statesmen are sup
porting Hughes?
William Howard Taft, foremost
apostle of reaction; Theodore Roose-
welt, disciple of Bernhard and advo-
cate of war for wars sake; Elihu

When Justice Hughes blamed Presi-
dent Wilson with the loss of the Louis
tania he made the greatest blunder ever
made by presidential candidate Go
out and talk with Republicans who are
going to vote to sustain the President,
and you can find them everywhere;
and they will all tell you that they
won't stand for that kind of campaign
ing. AS we'll blame President Nc Kin
ley for the blowing up of the Maine.
The American people have a strong
sense of fair play.

WOLFE FOR THE SENATE.

Able and worthy is William F.
Wolfe, candidate for United States sen
ator. He is sound and progressive
statesman; and he wouldn't dissemble
his political convictions for election to
the senate. He would be a great power
for good at Washington. He is waging
a powerful campaign. He stoutly
champions the policies of the Wilson
administration. A vote for Wolfe will
be an endorsement of those policies.

Why are the Interests" supporting

Why are the Interests" supporting
Hughes?
Because they expect in return for
financial aid, special legislation that
will add enormously to the wealth of
the few at the expense of the many =;
because they see in Woodrow Wilson
the greatest exponent of Democracy
since Jackson, and seek to destroy him
lest this nation become a real de-
mocracy.
What will Hughes do, If elected?
The nearest he has come to saying
what he would do, if elected, was at
Milwaukee, when he declared that La
Follette's Seaman's bill must be re-
peaIed, the Underwood tariff replaced
by higher tariff, and the "WhoIe ad-
ministrative legislative accomplish
ments wiped off the books for the
good of the country"
What is included in these legislative
accomplishments?
The Income Tax, the inheritance
Tax, the Child Labor Law, the Federal
Reserve banking system, the Farm
Loan system, the Good Roads pro-
gram, the Federal development of
Alaska, the Tariff Commission, the Fed
eraI Trade Commission, the Shipping
bill, autonomy for the Philippines, the
Clayton Act curbing government by
injunction, the preservation of neu-
traIity, the maintenance of peace, and
the enlarged army and navy.
What would Hughes election sig
Nifty?
The triumph of reaction and all that
it signifies in thWarting human
progress.

lives for the principles of protection;
or, compare it with the talk of Senator
La Toilette about the agricultural
schedules in the Underwood tariff law.
President Wilson we'll expresses the
right thought when he says that we
should stand for a tariff policy that
will promote rather than restrict for
eign commerce.

Crisis for Nations ToiIerS.

what the laDOrer Ql0nt see unQ2f
the Republican regime was that High
Tariff does not regulate wages, but
makes it possible for the manufa ctur-
er to so regulate prices that he can
control labor. The farmer, with his
characteristic self-reliance and natur
ally independent spirit, asked no fav-
ors. All he wanted was an equal
chance with other business men. Will
son saw the farmers interests in
big way.
The Rural Credits Act alone, of
more than dozen big things this
Democratic Congress did for agricul-
ture, gave greater direct benefits to
the farmers than any legislation en-
acted since the creation Of the Depart
ment of Agriculture generation ago.
There came time when the laborer
saw that his labor was a commodity,
a thing to be bought and sold, or re-
strained or enjoined by the unwar-
ranted issuance Of injunction writs in
Federal courts; he saw that he did
not have the right-guaranteed him
by our constitutional voluntary as
ISOLATION for his own protection and
welfare; in short, he saw that he was
a wage slave! He saw that he was
up against Capital-OrganiZed and en-
trenched behind the Powerful Pull of
the Political Bosses Of the Republican
High Finance Gang, and Organized
Capital fought to prevent the organi-
Zati0n of Labor!
What did Labor demand? Merely
this: That Labor be made part of the
national councils; that it's patriotism
be conceded; and that it's knowledge
of its own needs give it paramount
voice in legislation directly and pc
cularly affecting it's own rights.
And what has been the spirit of this
Democratic Administration? Let Sam
uel Gompers, President of the Ameri
can Federation of Labor tell:
"In my experience with United
States Congresses during two score
years | have not seen anything like
the fine spirit toward labor. toward
the rights and welfare of all the
people. pervading all the branches Of
the Wilson Administration. This fun
damental right spirit has guided the
Wilson Administration to wise and
righteous labor legislation"
In the age long struggle between
Capital which has always had per-
mission to combine, and Labor, which
was denied the right to combine, the
greatest step toward the full enfran-
chisement of labor Vas recommended
by a Democratic President and put
into law by a Democratic Congress-
the anti-Injunction Amendment to
the Clayton Law.
Farmers and LabOrerS of America
biggest of all Big Interests-the crest
Of the crisis has come. YOu-the big
element in our national life and the
real makers Of our prOSperity-yOu
are to decide: Are we to continue !;

Good Old Piffle of specious admins
tration which would buy your vote by
damning the man who has given you
what you asked fOr-and gave it to
you because it was right and proper
and just!
Make no mistake. The issue of this

your face. 1t is:
Big Interests VS.. the biggest Inter
ests.

ocracy.

DtARTH Of CRIME


Lynchburg. Va, Nov. zS.-The
marked decrease in the number OF
arrests for all causes since the pro-
hibition laws became effective No
vember / Ia now assuming . serious
aspect for Sergeant c.. J. Tyreo and
Superintendent w. II. Irwin, of the
city jail and city farm. respectively
Prisoners have been released from
these two prisons almost daily. but
few have been received since the hrst
OF the month.
Yesterday morning there were ten
prisoners in the city jail, the lowest
number In several months But one
prisoner was received from the Po-
lice Court, and he was Immediately
transferred to the city farm. Five of
these held at the Jail are women. one
of whom is yet to be tried. OF the
five men, but one Is white, and he is
being held for trial at the December
term of the Corporation Court on a
charge OF attempted criminal assault
One of the negro men. Charlie Wood.
also awaits trial In the higher court on
an indictment charging murder, his
trial at the November term having re-
suited in hung jury" It is stated
that several OF these ten now in jail
are TO be released within the next
two weeks. The records show that
on November there were twenty
nine prisoners in the city Jail.
The diminishing inmates at the city
| farm is almost a serious question with
Superintendent Irwin, as labor for the
farm Is dependent upon the prisoners.
yesterday morning there were sew
enteen prisoners for breakfast and
this number was increased one in the
afternoon when Daniel Warwick, coll
ored. was carried to the farm to serve
a sentence for shooting in the city
limits.
Since the FIRST OF the month only
| seven prisoners have been received at
the farm. whereas 1t has occurred
several times since the farm was
opened that almost these many pris-
oners have been received in q single
day. Three OF the men now serving
at the farm will complete their SEN
tences next month, and of those now
at the farm thirteen will not be re-
leased until after the start OF the new
year.
The police bfotter record shows that
thirty-eight arrests have been made
since midnight, October 81. Several
of these were minors, two on county
warrants: three for lunacy. and only
FIVE for drunkenness There have
been seven days during this month
on which there was not a single ar
| rest. and the mo grist" notation on
the docket Of the Police Court has
| also been frequent.
Compared to last month. the mum.
Der of arrests so far in November will
stand AZ a record. as the biottsr a,
headquarters shows that on one day
during October nineteen arrests were
made. over one-half as many Al have
been Jailed in the past twenty-ssver
| days
| Members Of the Police Department
are unanimous In the opinion tha'
not only has prohibition greatly re-
duced the number of arrests fol
drunkenness, but also lessened thu
number Of arrests for all other vio
lations. Not single serious cuttini
or shooting ARRAY has been reported
this month. nor are there any rob
berries or serious assaults. indicating
that crime has also been diminished
by the effects OF the prohibition laws
