The Progressive Issue , Contributed and Paid for by the Progressive Party of Jasper County ■ - , -—— Six Hard, Cold Facts Fact I—Taft1 —Taft can not be elected. . Fact 2—Roosevelt can be elected. .. Fact 3 —Wilson might be elected. Fact 4—The election of Wilson surely means tampering with the income of business men, the wage earner and the rest of the American public. Fact s—lt is up to the American voter to defend his income, upon which must always depend his outgo. Fact 6 —The only way for the American voter to defend his income is to prevent the election of Wilson by voting for Roosevelt.
RELATIONS OF HARRIMAN AND ROOSEVELT.
Little new concerning the Roose-velt-Harriman relatione is disclosed by the private Correspondence that Tegethoff, Harriman’s secretary, laid before the Clapp committee. The two men were friendly, but from the beginning one can detect in the letters that each was careful of what he said and that there was no genuine intimacy or confidence. Finally, Harriman asked Roosevelt not to recommend any extension of the powers of. the Interstate Commerce Commission, and Roosevelt promptly replied that his mind was made up so to recommend. After this there is merely politeness in the corresondence. One can imagine that Harriman was irritated because his apdvice had been rejected and that perhaps Roosevelt had heard ■that Harriman was circulating the story that he had been double-crossed —that at Roosevelt’s instance he had raised $250,000 for him and then had been treated as other men. Harriman was a masterful man accustomed to give orders. It inflamed him to discover in Roosevelt a will as inflexible as his own, and in a way easy to understand Harriman was able to convince himself that he had been misused.
No new light is thrown on the campaign contribution of 1904 that Odell has admitted was turned over to him. There is nothing in a documentary way corroborative of Harriman’s contention that he raised the money at the request of Roosevelt. There is nothing in a documentary way contradictory of Roosevelt’s contention that he asked Harriman to raise no money and that the money he did raise was on his own initiative to help out his friend, Odell, who, as chairman of the state committee, had created more obligations than he had funds to meet. That the money, or practically all of it, reached Odell does not seem open to doubt, and thus the Roosevelt contention, on the main point, is supported. On the other hand, it is clear that Harriman, at the time he was passing the hat, represented that he was doing so at the request of Roosevelt. It is a way that Harriman would naturally put the case to those he approached.; Ts he had said that he was raising the money for Odell, whose relations to Harriman were well understood, an embarassing question might have been put to him. One can imagine Twombly saying to him: “Harriman, if this money is for Odell why don’t you pay it all yourself? Odell is trying to beat our man Depew for the Senate and to install in his place Black, who may turn out to be your man. Why should we pay to have the swap?” There was a definite reason why. Harriman wished the New York Central crowd to think that the money he was asking was for the national committee. There is nothing to indicate
Seven Questions and One Answer. Are you in favor of bringing Then hope and help to the tenements and the slums? Do you believe in asking industry to care for the cripples You > that industry makes? / Do you believe that honest C protection is better than the rayne-Aldrich tariff or free „ trade? Dei°ng Do you believe, with John \ \ Stuart Mill, that the cure for the evils of democracy is more democracy? 11 Do you believe that rigid control of the trusts is better than —. pretending to destroy , them, as Ine we have been doing or promising to destroy them as Mr. "Wilson does? New Do you believe in pay for workingwomen sufficien t to raise them above the choice be- * tween starvation and sin? ® Do you believe that the dwarf* ing grind of sweat-shop toil Pnrfv should be lifted from the backs J of American children?
that he hinted to any one that the money, after being nominally paid to Bliss, was to be hurried into the hands of Odell, although it is evident from Harriman’s own words that he knew this when ringing various men up on the telephone. It is not strange, when a row was made over the matter and it became known that the money went to Odell, that Harriman felt compelled to stick to the part of the story concerning Roosevelt’s request The only way he could justify himself was to say in effect: “I may have worked you, but I was worked myself. I’ll give orders to Odell to pull Frank Black out of the senatorial race as an evidence of' my good faith.” , For several years an effort has been made to smirch Roosevelt by playing up the alleged Harriman scandal, but so far nothing has been brought out that shows that Roosevelt had any corrupt dealings with Harriman or that the Roosevelt narrative in any material way is inaccurate.—New York Globe.
WILSON AND THE TRUSTS.
Governor Wilson, if elected President, whatever he may now say, will think several times before taking action that will shut the gates of trust factories. Governor Wilson has permitted himself to become infected with the disease, whose symptoms are loose talking and loose thinking, but has attacked publie men ever since the big corporation came over the horizon. Nothing could be more suggestive of> the fraudulency enveloping the political discussion of the trust question than to have a Governor of New Jersey arise and reproach other persons for the existence of trusts. Think of it! The chief charterer of the trusts, whose lax laws have encouraged trust organization, finds fault with national administrations, because they are trusts. Not since Satan solemnly rebuked sin has there been anything more palpably Incongruous. But it may be said that these things happened in Jersey before the rise of Wilson. He was a citizen of the state, occupying a place of large influence during practically all of the period. No one heard of him protesting very loudly. Nor since he became Governor has hdytaken any steps of which the public is informed to drive the trusts out of New Jersey and to prevent the organization of new ones. The corporation laws of New Jersey are as they have been. Governor Wilson has shown his ability to but through reforms, but he has let the New Jersey corporations alone, so far as their organization is concerned. It is a most magnificent exhibit of assurance that Governor Wilson presents when he calls the roll of the big corporations and shows how they increased in number during the Taft and Roosevelt administrations.

Power of Vegetable Growth.
A tar macadam pavement stretching from the school of gunnery at Shoeburyness (Eng.) to the sea Is at present In a state of violent if silent eruption. About a fortnight ago the surface became covered with what may be called "blisters,” raised a little above the common level, which attracted much wondering attention. From each of these, in a few days, a series of cracks appeared, extending themselves In rays from a center. Finally came up a broad, soft shoot, looking extremely well pleased with Itself and Its work, which proved to be so old and well known a friend as the thistle. At this moment there are hundreds of those bold intruders showing defiantly through the pavement, affording a most Interesting illustration of the power of vegetable growth.
Mother's Chair.
Mother’s chair had rocked the whole family. It made a creaking noise as It moved, but there was music in its sound. It was just high enough to allow us children to put our heads into her lap. That Was the bank where we deposited all our hurts and worries. Oh, what a chair that was. ... It was* a very wakeful chair! In the sick day of children other chairs could not keep awake —It kept easily awake. That chair knew all the old lullabies, and all those wordless songs which mothers sing to their children. Songs In which all pity and compassion and sympathetic influences are combined. That old chair has stopped rocking for a good many yean. It may be set up tn the loft or garret, but It holds a queenly power yet—T. DeWitt Talmage.
Clumsy Flatterer.
He was a flatterer, but a clumsy one. Noting that the girl of his heart possessed beautiful teeth that shone like Ivory, he ventured to pass a compliment. "Dearest,” he whispered, leaning over the music rack, "your teeth are like piano keys.” Freezing him with an icy glare, she turned on her heel. "Sir, how dare you insult me?" "Insult you?” “Yes, insinuate that my teeth are as large as piano keys.” And without another word she left the parlor, leaving him crestfallen and bewildered.
