HANLY GEMS ON BEVRRIJGE "There has appeared in this campaign -s leader of the host* who fight at Armageddon here in Indiana, as valiant a knight as ever rode a hobby horse, or fought on any bloodless field, howeveß ancient. Our own Prince Jerry! Clad in an invincible armor o. purity' and ‘r i "ht''.ousness," sn I crowned with a halo born of his own egoistic imagination, he storms with Intrepid rhetoric and bristling with adjective every fortress of the ’Po‘■■ era of Pillage, '* and strikes with the lightning of bis verbal javelins every agent of ’invisible government' time has spared Wherever words are thickest and the missiles of the tongue fly swifteat, there waves his snowwhite plume. This valorous story is true. Indeed, it must be true, for ho admits it. Aye, proclaims it. Nothing can deter hl.n or affright him 'lt moans blood, slaughter and sudden death, tor the powers of pillage will not give up the'r hold on the state without a tight t > the death.' Hut Prince Jerry is not airaid. He has ‘been in inch fights in fore.' To free a state will be a little thing to one who has freed a nation’ He's going "to be known i.t the fighting governor.’ “If elected, he ‘will give his whole strength to the last heart beat,' and put the political boss and political machine out of business forever.' ‘Ambition for office' has ‘long sin- * /K/ I 1 I * «n W : I i 1 I I 1 /I I ■I I 1 H 1 fl IL li If I rj| I y <se<<eM.

been burned out’ of t\im ‘by hard fighting for the people against the most powerful interests in Anibrica which were wronging and robbing the people.’ ‘Ambition for office burned out!’ But Prince Jerry, like the Bienzi of the people that he is, fights on, So runs the oft-repeated and far-heralded proclamation, Issued by the prince himself, and so certified, it must be true. But ‘sdeath! Alas and alack! It has not always been so. "On July 7, !W (see congressional record, p. 4302), Senator Bacon again ' offered his amendment placing agri'cultural implements on the free list. ' Prince Jerry then was present. The Harvester trust, agent of ‘invisible government,' and itself one of the ■ mightiest ’powers of pillage, opposed It, and when the roll was called Prince Jerry was only able to utter ’No.' "Back home, in Indiana, the state whose commission he held, was fighting the harvester trust in behalf of a binder twine plant it had established in the state prison, inch by inch, for a market for its product on its own soil, within its own boundaries, among its own people. The battle on the part of the trust was one of extermination. But our valiant prince would not fight. There was not a single verbal javelin in his quiver. His white plume up>n the ground, beneath the trampling feet of the Philistines. His veins v. etc still unslit, the free blood coursing through them. His heart still pulsed its wonted rythm He was not wounded, not even ‘half shot," but he would not tight! "You wonder why -this inaptness aud impotency on the part of one who no« • our own local Armageddon lights so vauau.iy! But there was a reason. A "beautiful friendship, steadily proved by the years' between our valiant prune aud a Dear Old M*iu' in New York by the name of Perkins- George Washington, I think; yes. George Washington Perkins —a friendship mutual, touching and beautiful. intervened and staid his hand, kept bis from the national Armageidon and saved the dragon. s s s s "I present this argument against Mr. Beveridge, not because there is probability ot bis election. He himself has already made that impossible But because the things he preaches and the doctrines be advocates are, in their essence, attacks upon the ve.y fabric of constitutional government." - From J.

I i do you good. The campaign is closing, with Wilson stronger than when he started. In the past the democrats have started well but finished out of the race, i This year it is different. They have I come down the pike at a stride that i fairly carried their opponents off the i track and they are going faster now than at any time in the campaign. You can't stop them. The battle Is I won, if ’the democrats will vote and i see that the other fellow does. County Chairman Bosse predicts a . great democratic victory In Adams , county this year. The work has been . thorough, the organization Is comI plete, and with the vote out, there can . be no doubt as to the result here. It will be the greatest victory ever . known in this banner county of the state. Vote early and get your neighbor to do likewise. You can afford to devote one day to this duty which you owe yourself, your family, your county, state and nation. In considering the qualifications of each of the applicants for the presidency ot the t'nlted States, it behooves us t< ‘wke care to select a man who will le able to act in harmony with his assistants. ' Nothing is more embarnssing or more detrimental to the progress of ail enterprise than to have the head of such enterprises at daggers' points ' with his colleagues Considered in this light tile question should prove i easy to answer. President Taft came into office hailed as a great peacemaker. His rampaging i rwiecessor changed cabinet officers as readily as he changed clothes. Whenever there was a mistake to be patched up, some head had to fall. During the latter period of hfs term of office, his recommenaations were ignored bv congress, and be in turn ignored the legislation ot the peoples representatives. As a peacemaker, Mr. Taft his proved to be a great failure from the very staYt. The whole country was shocked by the Ballinger-Pinchot controversy, with the result that todav ( ' the republican party is hopelessly split asunder. The democrats came into majority •In the house, and notwithstanding ill i' propheev to the contrary, they are , | working together in superb harmony They have passed more constructive legislation during their comparatively j brief tenure than perhaps the country ever before witnessed tn a like period | Were It not for the outrageous abuse of the vetoing power on the part of the executive, the <ountry would at I present be enjoying relief from egcessive tariffs and many other evils that we are obliged to suffer.
