The demeemtio party is stronger today than it has ever teen, it is mon determin'd and it has a better chance of achieving national victory than at any time in a quarter of a century. This truth ought to stir every lover of liberty to action, for the democratic party is the only liberty party—the only constitutional party in America today.

He was fresh from the Maine wood-’ when lie culled on the chief magistrate, and when he reached New York the next day lie announced I that Indiana would give 25,<*00 Repubi licsti majority this fall. As the senstot hadn’t met anyone from Indiana i for two months he must have gotten his information front the president It I is supposed that the president got his i tip from Chairman Goodrich, who deI chtr-I when the boom for Hanna was ! about to sweep over the country, that Indiana would be a doubtful state If Roosevelt was nominated.

A REPUBLICAN RECORD. The Republican party came into power in Indiana in 1895. Its promises for retrenchment and reform had been fair and doubtless some people believed that they would redeem all the promises they had made. But the instinct to prey upon the people is so deep-rooted in Republicans that it cannot be long resisted. This has been demonstrated particularly in the record the party has made in the log islature. Session by session the burden of cost has been increased till it has risen trom $99,723.04 in ’895 to $120,999.71 in 1903. with even a higher altitude in 1901. Here is the record for the five years in which the party has been in control of the legislature: 1895 $ 99,723.04 1897 105,817.29 1899 114.708.25 1901 125,791.94 1903 120,999.71

The feeling that President Roosevelt is not a safe man for the highest office in the gift o, tho people grows with each day of the campaign, and it becomes more and more certain that the personality of candidates as well as party principles will have much to do with the result in November. Judge Parker Is a man of peace, calm, quiet, dignified, conservative and safe, while the president Is his opposite in all these essential characteristics of the statesman. The natural tendency of Republican administrations. whether national, state, county or township, is toward extravagance. Since the party went into power at Washington in 1897 there has been a constantly increasing record of expense, and the same la true of the Republican state admfnfsi ration In Indiana since 1898. “The men who ol lect to wh»t the) style ’government by Injunction’ are. as regards the essential principle of government, in hearty sympathy with their remote skln-clnd ancestors who lived in caves, fought -ne another with stone-headed axes. »• I ate the mammoth and woolly rhinnreems."—Theo dore Roosevelt, The ate.il trust Is abutting down Its mills, the textile Industries are clos ing. and the great railroads are constantly reducing the number of men In their employ.

CORNER EAST COURT HOUSE DEC. TUB,, INDIANA,

PARKER Oi TRUSTS James Creelman Shows That the Democratic Candidate Is the Man d the Hour. .James t reelman has contributed a character sketch of Judge Parker to 1 the Review of Reviews in which he throws light on the trust record of the candidate. In part he ays. “In 189(1, sitting as a trial justice of the supreme court of New York, he decided in the Bluectone trust case that it was Immaterial whether a combination in restraint of trade was rfttsonable or unreasonable. The existence of the power to restrain the Hade was forbidden by the common law In uttering this conception of sound public policy the judge was not bound by any statute. Ha was not express ing an academic opinion or making a political speech, but was declaring the law as it stands today in the state of New York. He was not at that time a candidate for office, nor wa.: h!s name being discussed publicly in any | way. There was no politicil pressure behir I tint. He was not even acting in c< c rt with other Jud,’?4. but, sitting alone in a trial court, was free to deliver ils own understanding of settled public policy. Afterward, as chief judge of the court of appeals, a tribunal ot last resort he twice settled the same point in the same way. | Quoting Judge Venn’s words he said 1 of a contract in restraint of trade that it is not the possible capacity of the party for self restraint, but it is the scope of the contract that furnishes. the test of Its validity." In the case of the Parks & Sons' company again, t the National Drug | gists’ association he deelarod that neither side was trying to help the public, and added: “In the struggle with a'-q'iistttveness but little c insideration Is given to those who may bo affected adversely. Am 1 within my legal rights’ Is as char to the equitable view as competitors in business usually come When one party finds himself over whelmed by the strength of the p->si tlon of the other, be looks about for aid. And quite often he turns to the courts, even when he has no merit oi Lis own. and ma'.es himself for the tl’ a being the pretended chamtdon oi :b' nubiic welfare, in the hone that
