What Does a Change Mean For YOU?

With our abundant crops and prosperity in all lines of business in the country, our farmers, our laborers, and our business men are going to think twice before vsHtig for a change in the republican of our national affairs. The following wise wordaof Chairman Hilles, of the national republican committee, are worth pondering over by the voter: , Two groups of zealous politicians are crying to the country for a change in our national administration.

But for you, the workers and taxpayers, this contest is serious business, and you should weigh the consequences with a serious mind. Don’t take mere words. Seek facts. „ Out of this whirlwind of language which the “spellbinders send beating about your ears, what is it that stands out, first and all the time? . ■ “We want a change in Washington.” A change for what? To what? The present administration, after nearly four years’ hard work, has finally succeeded in restoring the country’s business to a prosperous basis. The mills are running full time. Mines are operating all their shifts. Factories are working to capacity. Commerce is thriving. The country is free of labor troubles and financial troubles. The working man is steadily gaining better wages. The farmer is growing steadily more prosperous. The market for farm products has never been so broad and generous. The railroads report the heaviest freight and passenger traffic in their existence. Shipping is everywhere active. Public works on a great scale are everywhere under way. Trade is moving smoothly, in ever-increasing volume. The savings banks are overflowing with money. The United States is on the threshold of the greatest boom in its history. Within six months, under present conditions, we will dwarf the great period that followed the Spanish War. And our prosperity will be here to stay, for we are on sounder ground than we were in ’9B. The trust problem has been settled —and settled right. “Big Business” has been put in its proper place, and this without halt> ing industry or disorganizing affairs. The currency question is understood as it never has been, and will be solved along sound lines as soon as the heat of partisan political controversy dies down. The tariff is gradually being placed on a business basis, and soon will be out of politics, as it should. Everything is shaping to give the American people a long, unbroken, unparalleled period of peace and plenty. And at this time of all others, along come these political gentlemen shouting for a change. Do you want to change? Do you want to check prosperity just as you are about to pluck its choicest fruits? Would you, the workers who must pay, commit the mad folly "of taking your government out of tried and proven hands and turning it over to the self-seekers who are clamoring for its control? When President Taft took over the government the country was prostrate. Industry was paralyzed. Business was chaotic, uncertain, suspicious. Millions were out of employment. Investors, wherever possible, had withdrawn their capital. Enterprise was dead. All this was the result of the panic of 1907, the “talking panic.” The “Bich Man’s” Panic, it was called. But do you remember any poor man who was not hurt ? It took the Taft administration over three years to repair the damage of this panic. It required infinite patience, skilful management at home and abroad, unflinching enterprise, good judgment and vast prudence to bring the country out of that black pit. And now that the pit is covered, and the country is basking once more in the level sunshine of prosperity, do you want to take a chance on being thrown back? Do you want to take a chance •cm being talked into another and a needless panic? - The'question is not to be settled by talk, no matter how smart. The huzzahs of the hustings may make sweet music, but in the background of the future you may hear the mutterings of a people unemployed. Your, family stands with you at the dividing line, which has happiness and prosperity on one side and unhappiness and even want bn the other. If you are a tramp, without kindred and without responsibility, by all means follow the adventurers. But if you own a stake in - the country, if you have kith or kin dependent on the job you hold, weio-h carefully the words and deeds of those who would lead you in' a mad gallop to the precipice of experimental government Remember, a change at Washington would mean everything for them. But what would it mean for yous Would Mr. Taft’s defeat help yous t « Would the theories, untried and unproven, on which the politicians are seeking to ride into office, benefit your wife and family ? Brush aside all the fine language of the orators long enough to dig out answers to these questions. You will then have a reasonably safe guide on election day, for, like true charity, true politics begins at home. The intelligent man votes for that which is best for himself and those dependent on him, and not for that which is beet only for the other fellow. He is not misled by the shadow of the bone in the water. The American people, for the pnt time in years, have the bone es prosperity firmly between the* teeth. Are they prepared, like the dog in the fable, to drop it, to chase elusive shadows f

They want to take charge of the nation. They want to administer pubuc affairs. And they promise wildly, eagerly, what they will do in return — if only they are granted control. Prom Maine to California, their words fill the air. And have you, the workers and taxpayers, whose affairs these gentlemen would control, stopped to analyze their proffers and promises? * You should. To the politicians themselves these proffers and promises are of no special importance. They have nothing to lose. They have everything to gain. Even if they lose, they win; for the contest will keep them in the limelight.

SENS IN INDIANA POINT TO G. O. P.

Thousands of Voters Flocking to Taft Standard. Letters From State Chairman Sims Urge Workers to Continue Thair Efforts Until Polls Close. Indianapolis. Ind.—Letters to the Republican workers in every county have been sent by Fred Sims, chairman of the Republican State Central Committee, Indianapolis, urging them to keep up their energetic efforts until the polls close, when the success of the party in this State will be assured. According to reports received by Mr. Sims from over the State, political conditions have clarified very perceptibly in the last three weeks, and he thinks that party victory now depends upon the vigilance of the workers in each precinct. Numerous signs which are highly encouraging to the Republicans are visible. One of them is in the heavy registration of the p#rty vote on October 7, indicating that the voters themselves will turn out in force on election day. Another very healthy sign is in the reports that in one county after another Republicans, who earlier in the campaign were in doubt as to what they would do, have definitely made up their minds that a vote for a Progressive candidate would really be a help to the Democrats. It is evident now that the contest is between the Republicans and the Democrats, and the thinking Republicans of the State are aroused in their determination not to turn the election over to the Democracy. Mr. Sims and all other members of the State Republican Committee call upon the Republicans of Indiana to forget animosities, to heal factional dissensions and to present an unbroken front on election day. During the campaign the State Committee has kept in close touch with its organization throughout Indiana, and as the election day draws near there is every evidence that the working forces are enthusiastic and compact In fact, it is doubtful if the Republican forces were ever so well organized as they are today, and the chief mission of the organized force is to see that the full party vote gets to the polls. Personal interviews on the part of the workers with the voters has been one of the strong factors in clearing up the atmosphere in the last few weeks, drawing back into the ranks thousands of men who were undecided as to how they should vote. The potential argument which is winning for the Republicans in city, town and country is that under a Republican administration the era of prosperity will go on —that under a change of administration the future will be marked by uncertainty. It is this argument that has very largely strengthened the Republican party in this State. While the registration of Republican voters has been highly satisfactory to the State Committee, voters are now urged not to change their residence from one precinct to another until after election, thereby endangering their chances of voting.

CHANGED THEIR TACTICS.

At first the Indiana Democrats thought that a passive campaign effort would win for them. Then, a little later, it was found that an aggressive fight would have to be made. But for some weeks the party, through its speakers has been on the defensive. Mr. Ralston was the first to assume the defensive, and he has heen strenuously at it ever since. He has defended the Democratic party in the State against the charges of boss domination, and he has defended himself from the charge of machine control. He has, time and again, sought to amend the State platform, and he has sought to defend the present State administration from the various attacks that have been made upon it. The other speakers, including Governor Marshall, Senator Shively and Senator Kern, have followed practically the same course, the Governor waxing particularly strong in his defense of the Marshall administration.

IF WILSON IS ELECTED.

If Woodrow Wilson is elected —and it will be either Taft or Wilson—every manufacturer and business man will know on the morning of November 6 that the tariff will be radically changed. There will then ensue many months of anxious waiting, during which time business men will curtail their working fo»ces and husband their resources against the blow that is sure to fall. When the new tariff law is enacted, orders will be abroad for immense quantities of goods. The withdrawal of orders from American factories will cause every plant to shut down, force millions of men into idleness and line the sidetracks with empty car*. In order to pay the bills of the foreign manufacturers, millions of dollars of American gold will have to be sent abroad. This will deplete the bank reserves, with consequent calling of loans and the sacrificing of securities in order to raise ready money. This means commercial and financial panic. The prosperity of 1892 faded away in less than two years of Democratic administration under the Wilson tariff law. The prosperity of 1912, the climax of 16 years of Republican administration, will also speedily disappear if the Democratic party comes Into power.
