WHAT ABOUT CONVICT LABOR? About Bryan's great friendship for labor, Mr. Workingman. If you canno't gather grapes from thistles or figs from thorns how can you hope for any helpful political policies from political party WHICH UPHOLDS CONVICT LABOR IN ONE OF ITS STRONGEST STATES? This the democratic party does in the south. Why didn't Bryan and Marshall, when they came to Lake county, say something about convict labor? DO YOU BELIEVE IN CONVICT LABOR, MR. WORKINGM AN ? a

On Sept. 30, 1908, the Rushville Daily Democrat, one of the brewery

Should the people reject the action of the legislature on Nov. 3, elect a democratic governor, and democratic members of the legislature, who shall gainsay their RIGHT TO RULE at all times?"

Taft stands for republicanism and progress, as against Bryanism and his policies which are anything to win. They republicanism of Taft is a pledge of peace. The democracy of Bryan is a threat of strife. Taft stands for a protective tariff and high wages, while Bryan stands for free trade and low wages. Under republican administration, American labor has received the highest wages ever paid anywhere in the world. Under democratic administration American labor had to compete not only with the free trade labor of Europe, but with the slave labor of the United States.

BRYAN'S ONLY DELUSION WHICH he has clung to through thick and president of the United States will not
thin free trade is not getting the attention it deserves. It is the only child j by former political marriages that the democratic candidate acknowledges this year, and even it is such a disreputable little brat that the "Peerless One" would like to disown it'in certain parts of the country. But here Bryan's
records clings to him and here the democratic platform haunts him. The 1 Nebraskan has gone further than many of his associates in declaring for
free trade.
He advocated and voted for the Wilson bill only because it was a "step
in the right direction." He would let down the tariff bars so as to allow un
limited imports, Mr. Manufacturer; close every factory in the country, Mr.
orkingman; and make every farm unprofitable, Mr. Farmer. His record is on file, his statements are on record, and he must be measured by. his words and deeds. He helped frame the only law approaching free trade, which has been in force since the republican parti came into power. He would sign a worse one if he had his way.

Washington. Oct. 22. Lieutenant
Governor Hugh T. Miller of Indiana
was a caller at the White House today and was closeted with the president for
a half hour, telling him in detail of the Indiana political situation. The president was greatly interested and asked many questions of the man fresh
rrom the field. Mr. Miller, it is said, told the president a different tale from
the Walter Wellman view of the situation. In fact, he admitted that he gave
the presiden a view from a republi
can standpoint, which was that Taft
would carry the state beyond all doubt
and that the state and legislative tick
et had a hard fight on hands, but that he believed all would pull through.
He said the republican situation had steadily improved in Indiana since the first week in October. Mr. Miller will be here for a day or two looking after
private business.

(From Governor Hughes' Speech at South Bend, Ind.) "IF BRYAN HAS BEEN ELECTED in 1896 the disasters that would have followed would have prevented him from ever being a candidate again. "We are devoted to a line of progress, straightforward, honorable administration above every selfish advantage, against every attempt to exploit the people for private interest. We are devoted to the public welfare in establishing" the stability of honest enterprise. We serve the republican party because we believe that through it these things can be accomplished.
