THE NEW NATIONALISM.

Here’s the latest, greatest cure-all fehat you ever saw or smelt; It is sold and manufactured by old Dr. Roosevelt. It will turn the nation inside out, and also outside in, And cleanse it of original and other kinds of sin, It will utterly destroy each fundamental institution; And relieve the irritation of a useless Constitution; It will nullify the Bill of Rights, eliminate the Courts, And remove the worst excresences, from Congress down to warts.

It contains the well-known remedies in Dr. Bryan’s name, On the discovery of which still rests Karl Marx’s fame; The same that Dr; Debs prescribed when sometimes candidate. And one time peddled far and wide by “Bloody Bridles” Waite— Those socialistic syrups that are warranted to keep In any kind of climate and to make 7 the patient sleep, And recommended by the “Pops” in their once “sacred cause” To anaes|hetize the Judges and to paralyze the laws. 7

Then into these decoctions there is poured with iron hand Some strong imperial essence of the Kaiser Wilhelm brand, * And next bromidian platitudes are dropped into the mass, Which is highly carbonated then with conservation gas; Meanwhile is ajded righteousness until it's very thick. Then it’s brought up to the boiling point and stirred with the Big Stick; * And when it’s done he bottles it and furiously shakes it. Then throws the patient on the floor and chokes him till he takes it. —-New York World.

PRESIDENT SEEKS HARMONY IN OHIO

Taft Makes Progress in Patching Up Party Split PROMISES NATIONAL SPEAKERS • Both Senators Burton and Dick Are to Stump State on Behalf of Warren G. Harding, Republican Candidate for Governor. Cincinnati, Sept. 23. President Taft has made, a little progress in clearing factional differences that have split the Republican party in Ohio since the holding of the state nominating convention. The president talked with Senator Burton and with L. C. Claylin. chairman of the Republican state committee, and after the conference it was announced ‘that both Senator Burton and Senator Dick had been invited to speak in support of Warren G. Harding, the Republican nominee, in the campaign. There has been a mix-up among Republican leaders in Ohio since the state convention, but it was feared that Senators Burton and Dick might cause the most trouble. Senator Dick was not invited to speak at the opening of the Republican campaign, but attended the meeting and was called upon by bis supporters The Republican nominee for governor had just finished a speech in which he announced himself as a moderate progressive, favoring a tariff commission. Dick took the platform and made a red hot. old time, standpat speech. Since then there had been doubt as to whether Dick would be invited to participate in the campaign. Senator Burton has his axe out for George B. Cox, the boss of Hamilton county. Burton is hot at Cox, because Cox' accused him of duplicity at the convention and said that he was “a pinhead and a rusty one at that.” Burton promised to go after Cox on the platform, because of this “pinhead” characterization. After the conference with Mr. Taft, it bceame known that Burton would not take up the cudgels with Cox at least until after election day. The president promised the Ohio people that he wopld have several men of national prominence sent into the state for the campaign.
