lal legislation in return for their contributions. The only way to defeat scheme is to vote for the Democratic candidates for congress. ==■'■ * An Ohio Republican said that the reason why the Taft organization would not allow Senator Foraker to make a speech opening the campaign was because Foraker served notice ‘at Cincinnati Just what he would do the first time he got a crowd to listen to him, to-wlt: He would take the hide off Roosevelt and slap Taft to death with It. Those Ohio Republicans are surely a happy family. The ridiculous Van Cleave, who as president of the National Association of Manufacturers, will doubtless try to keep himself before the public, but he is not the live wire he thinker he is. Nearly all of the sensible members of his asspclatlon have come to the conclusion that Van Cleave is both crank and ignoramus. He doesn’t seem to have enough sense to know that the whole country has come to look upon him as a silly and offensive seeker after notoriety. Every dollar contributed by a Democrat to the Anti-Saloon League as It is now manipulated by Its officers Is a dollar given to the Republican campaign fund. Let every Democrat bear this fact in mind—the Anti-Saloon League is *working hand-in-glove with the Republican state machine. Its officers have allowed it to be used by the Republican politicians, who care nothing about the temperance question, but are interested only in the success of the Republican ticket.

THE WISE MEN Congressman James of Kentucky, speaking to a great meeting of Ohio Democrats the other day, said: “The Republican party boasted our currency system the best on earth: so often they have enswooned U 3 with the rapturous phrase that It had no equal. But now, we behold the Aldrich commission crossing the ocean upon palatial steamers, feasting and banqueting over the whole world at the expense of the taxpayers, visiting kings and courts, monarchies and dynasties, searching for an Improved financial system which will be to their liking. “The Republican party told .us they would start mills instead of mints. We have lived to see them stop the mills and start the printing presses under the Aldrich-Vreeland currency bill to issue money to the great captains of industry, the Wall street coterie, upon stocks and bonds —watered stock, the value of which no man knows and no man would be so hazardous as to say what they were worth today or what would be tomorrow. But Wall street demanded this legislation and the Republican party performed.”
