THE TOUCH, BUT NOT THE VOICE Editor Democrat—“History repeats itself” is a saying almost as old as history itself. Human nature is the same today that it was thousands of years ago. If you doubt this and care to read the Bible you can find the proof by turning to the twentyseventh chapter of Genesis, where you will find how Isaac was deceived by Jacob, and how Jacob stole the birthright and blessing from his brother Esnu. During the deception Jacxl| went near unto Isaac his father; and he felt him and said. The voice is Jacob’s voice, but the hands are the hands of Esau. You see that Isaac had become blind and could not see. Now I want to say to the voters who read this paper that deception did not die with Jacob. One of the most gigantic political schemes that ever was perpetrated is being worked on the American people, or at least is being attempted. The American people to a great extent fell in with Rooseveltism, because they felt that Roosevelt was a reformer. It the people elects Taft this fall they will not get the Roosevelt reforms. We will admit that by Taft beiifg nominated through the dictation of Roosevelt that he received the touch of Roosevelt. but all you will have tp do is to read the Chicago platform and you will see that Taft has the voice of Wall street. He may have the touch of Esau, but not the voice. W. J. ARCHBOLD. o —.
