Jasper County Democrat, Volume 11, Number 41, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 24 October 1908 — Height of Impudence. [ARTICLE]
Height of Impudence.
The New York Evening Post, although supporting Taft, takes no stock in the prosperity panic argument. It says: “We agree with Mr. Bryan that for the Republicans to predict that his election will bring on panic and hard times is the height of impudence. That cry was raised against the Democrats In 1896, 1900 and 1904. But after more than ten years of undisputed Republican ascendency we had one of the worst panics in our history, and the hard times are still upon us. Under these circumstances the Republican orators might Interest their hearers more by explaining why the miraculous intelligence and administrative skill of the Republicans failed to save us ” ■ fz ■■
