, FOR REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD VOTE FOR TAFT. . He is tried and trusted in practical politics, not hair-trigger theories. He stands for protection to the workingman, not free trade for the foreign laborer. , He is a constructive statesman, not a destructive dema-
. gogue. He upholds law and order, he doesn't try to tear down the governmental fabric. RICHARD OLNEY, RAINBOW CHASER THE II. WITH AMAZING INCONSISTENCY the stump speakers of the Bryan
party continue "to hold up Richard Olney as an authority as a former Cleve
land adherent who wants to see Bryan elected. As nearly as can be made out, perhaps we are wonderfully obtuse Mr.
Olney holds that the election of Mr. Bryan will , in some mysterious way do something toward staying the march of radicalism. As he puts it, the defeat of the republican party "will do much toward bringing to their senses
the ultra-radical ' element of both parties."
Now Mr. Bryan vociferates each day that the Roosevelt administration erred in not going far enough, and In every speech attacks Judge Taft on
the ground that he will not complete the work of the Bryan administration
And Mr. Olney rises to say in effect that Bryan' does not mean a word of it and that the practical result of Bryan's election would be In favor of
conservatism. Did you ever heard anything more ridiculous? Mr. Olney is to be con gratulated on his brilliant essay on topsey-turveydom.
He puts for the paradox that the more radical is a candidate the safer
It is to put him in office. OLNEY BELONGS ON THE DEBS SPECIAL. o IT CANNOT DELIVER THE VOTES.
TO THE BOSS. You have young men in your employ. Has it occurred to you that you owe these young men more than their salaries?
Or if you fight shy of moral mat-
ters have you considered that you might set such a good example before these young fellows as to raise their standard of honor and conduct and
you profit thereby?
You are the pattern which those un
der you will imitate. v
Consciously or not, those who work
for you look up to you and follow you. You are their ideaL You have succeeded in the business in which they
hope to succeed. What more naturaf
than they should imitate you and your ways?
Therefore you may be sure Your standards of life und business.
your habits and purposes, will become theirs.
You may defend yourself by urging
that your life is your private affair. You may say to your people, "Do as I
say, not as I do." Nevertheless they
will judge your creed by your actions.
Rare is that young man who is able to profit by the errors of his boss and
avoid them..
You cannot conceal your real charac
ter.
For example: If you are accustomed to use sharp
practices in your deals, if you deceive your customers, your employees know
It. Unconsciously they will adopt as their code, "Be honest with the firm, but cheat other people." If you will think a moment you will see where
" it sort of "honesty" leads. If you
;ow dishonesty you will of dishonesty
reap your losses. . . ,
If you swear, habitually or Occasion
ally, expect to hear the echo of your
oaths from the mouths of your under
studies. And expect also to lose something of the respect of your people when you thus lose your poise and
your temper.
If you drink, even occasionally, you
thereby invite drinking by your help
ers. You may have strict rules for
bidding the use of liquor. You will
find that your habits count for more
'than your rules.
If you gamble, your men will know
it. And if some day one of them
embezzles your money to pay his gam bllng debts you will know the reason.
If you dissipate or speculate, look
out! The boys will dissipate and spec ulate.
Now, this Is not a preachment. It Is straight speeeh-rman fashion.
Do not deceive yourself. Decency,
cleanliness of life, fine purposes,, are still at a premium in the business
world and always will be.
THE INDIANA FEDERATION OF, Labor has almost limitless possibilities for good as a labor state congress, but It is in other business. It does not control the vote of the workers of Indiana and Its resolutions and formal action are scarcely worth serious attention. Its president, Edgar Perkins, has been re-elected for the fourteenth time. He thinks congression-al honors should go around and once he was the democratic candidate for
Congressman Overstreet's place. Hiojown party threw him down hard and
he had done work for it, too. He la still working for that party, but he cannot Induce Its leaders to believe that honor to him will bring It all the labor vote of Indiana. It is tough on organized labor to have leaders
mostly men endowed with a bigger gift of gab than their fellowswho play it in the hope of securing place and cash in political office of some
sort or other. WHERE IS THE OLD-FASHIONED CAMPAIGN?
WHAT HAS BECOME OF THE OLD-FASHIONED campaign? Where is it gone? Of course you remember It with all its excitement. It was like a three months' season of free vaudeville. What man, worthy to be a man,
does not remember how his youthful pulses once beat near election time!
How he liked the bands and the glee clubs! Did'the experience make for a worse citizenship? Has virtue really gained by taking red fire out of our politics? Will we vote any different on election day? Here it is a little over three weeks until election day and two big rallies have been held in Lake
county so far and both of them republican. Out on the streets, in the mar
ket places, in the clubs, the churches and the homes, in past campaigns, at this
"time, politics would be seething! Why the change? . A FINE SPECIMEN OF AN EDUCATOR.
BECAUSE OF THE SOTTISHNESS of one man. a thriving educational Industry in Hammond has been broken up and its effects sold under the Hammer. The honest efforts of the proprietor of the institution have
failed and gone to waste because of the depraved appetite of his manager
for intoxicating liquor. The influence of the latter, as an educator on the girls and boys with whom he was brought in daily contact was nil, or at least debasing. It is a sad commentary in more than one way and the
lesson points to Its own moral.
AND IN THE MEANTIME don't forget in all the heat and passion of
the political campaign that the most beautiful season of the year they are all the most beautiful In their time Is upon us. Nature in all her splendid colorings, in her harvest time and ripened dying beauty, is now so gorgeous
tnat it .wni ao you good to get out and commune with her. It won't seem such a heartless, faithless, scheming old world when you come back, and It
" "won't cost you anything these grand autumn days to quaff nature's cup. ' ' '
IT IS TIME FOR CALM thought, the exercise of common sense and
good judgment. It is time for men of courage to say their minds which
may not be popular, but which will make others think. The next presl
dent of the United States will be chosen not for his hatred of classes and
nis auegiance to tne masses, out lor Ms ability to serve the nation. Do
you believe Mr. Bryan, the rainbow-chaser, a safe man? o
fc.es, vvxl. urjtJiE.viu iiiat air. uompers, as one democratic paper puts
it, "has the labor vote tucked away in his vest pocket." That's about all
the votes he has gat what will go In his vest pocket.

" He is as strong as he is gentle. His reputation Is simply spotless. In all the agitation of a heated campaign for the greatest office ia the world, no one has ventured to Intimate a doubt of the absolute honesty of this man who has been before the country for a quarter of a century. Nor can any one successfully dispute the simple proposition that in the whole history of the United States no one . was ever named for the presidency who was so fitted by nature, by training and by experience for the datles, dignities and responsibilities of that unique office CHARLES HOPKINS, in "The Independent."

When the ocean breeze blew off Herbert Roy Johnson's hat at Atlantic
City last July while he and three other Chlcagoans, all confirmed bachelors and members of a west side bachelor's club, in Chicago, were "doing the east"
in an automobile, it was both an ill and a favorable wind from the standpoint of Mr. Johnson's companions and himself. For it dropped the hat at
she feet 6f Miss Glayds Vera Chapeck, 944 East Garfield boulevard, Chicago
who with a number of friends was spending the summer at the ocean resort. As Mr. Johnson started to thank the rescuer of his hat he gazed Into a pair of merry blue eyes that almost made him . speechless with admiration, which
was in tensifled as the breeze toyed with a few straggling golden locks of hair.
It ' was love at first sight. Mr. Johnson abandoned the automobile trip and remained at Atlantic City. He also abandoned the bachelor club. In the following days of the summer Miss Chapeck and Mr. Johnson in a touring car were familiar figures as they passed through the streets of Atlantic City. Finally during one of these rides the question was popped by the young man, and the ocean breeze wafted back the word "Yes from the girl's lips.
