Why in the name of the seven sleepers of Kphesus does not our pet little governor send the soldiers down to French Lick and stop the Chicago sports who flock down there to bet on the horse races, to play chuck-a-luck, faro, roulette, keno, craps, poker, hyronemus? Is he afraid the militia miflit yet in trouble down

there and run into a "load" or a "holdout" or an "cectricMreri;;ias,fue th"!"t hs" for tli , corruptions, and that he would nialiet. front threats of personal violence Chicago sports can tret anv kind of a iame thev want from a mob with the unquaiiing and

at Brown's Casino at Freneh Lick. There really is no earthly reason why any one should go to Mineral Springs when he can sit in an elegantly furnished poolroom and do all the betting lie wants. .French Lick is the 'Monte Carlo of America. It runs unmolested. It is a favorite resort for the blase. Governor Marshall knows it. Everybody knows it.. You wouldn't believe half the tales that are told about the French Lick Casino, run under state protection. We hold no brief for Mineral Springs, but why does Marshall come up here when he has a national scandal at his own doorstep ?. Why the. state troops, costing hundreds of dollars a day, up here and not even a constable at French Lick? How can the people of Lake county vote for a man like Marshall, who is such a type of inconsistency? What sort of a president would he make, did the democratic ticket chance to be elected and death should overtake Wilson I We suppose he would order out a brigade of United States regulars and a fleet of super-dreadnoughts to this corner of Lake county when anybody won a hand-painted pickle. dish at a bridge party?

lofty indifference with which ho would front the hitter ang.r of the wealthiest and most, powerful corporations. Broad though his sympathies are, there is in him not the slightest tinge of weakness. No consideration of personal interest, any more than of fear for his personal safety, could make him swerve a hair's breadth from the course which he regards as right in the interest ct the whole people."

REMEMBER THE BREAD LINE.

From 1 ft 12 .bach to l?o7 is not a far call. It takes us to a period that is still fresh in the minds of the peoV'le of this region. It takes us away from our present prosperity and hack to the time when hearts were filled with aprchoiiidon, when tho blast furnace fires died out, when the boom and clang of industry in the mills was stilled, when the railroads laid off men ami the yards were filled with rusting- and unused cars. Those wore the closing days of the Roosevelt administration. Those were the dark days of the panic of 10 07; a panic That was precipitated, needlessly by the man who again seeks the favor of the people he misled. Fp to 1&07 the people of the United States had applauded many of the

policies of their president. They recognized in them a step towards new ideals. AN!) THEN THE FRESH E NT WENT MAI). Satiate, 1 with a sense of his own importance, unconcerned about the rights of c.thers, determined to cram "MY POLICIES" down the throats of the people before they could digest them, gone crazy with a determination to prosecute everything that looked like an aggregation of capital, except ing only his pels The si eel and harvester trusts, Roosevelt came to be iegarded as a serious menace to tho country. Almost wiUiin an hour the great business structure of the country came tumbling to his feet. And there he fdood amidst the ruins surveying the object of his wrath. Capital WAS SFRDFEI.) but Iabc SUFFERED. The streets were filled with idle men. The mill gates were closed and gloom settled down over the region like a pall. The banks refused to part with their funds and the business of the city was done on scri pt. Then in the mi Idle of that memorable winter the shivering residents of the Standard Stel Far district were driven from their homes by erdd and hunger and THE BREAD LINE WAS FORMED AT THE COURT HOUSE. THEV LAUGHED AT THE IDEA OF THE BREAD LINE IN JULY OF 1!B7 AND IN OCTOBER OF THE SAME YEAR IT WAS A FACT. It is ready strange how little separates the majority of us from want. It. was Theodore Roosevelt's fault. He gave his fri.-ii.is in the steel trust the privilege of absorbing the Tennessee Coal & Iron Company, one of its most dangerous competitors, on the pretext that the failure of that company was imminent. And then followed the long period of convalescence. No president faced a worse situation upon taking office than did president Taft. He was compelled to rectify all of the mistakes of bis predecessor am! lake the blame for many of them. Rut in

menaces the country today. WHj CAN HAVE ROOSEVELT AND AN

OTHER "MY POLICIES" PANIC: WILSON AND ANOTHER TARIFF PANIC OR WE CAN HAVE TAFT AND MORE PROSPERITY. Are we going to be fools of the first water, ns-unine .-ranks or are we going to follow the dictates of reason and VOTE FOR THE PERPETUATION OF A GOOD THING?

SAMPLE TARIFF BILLS. If the tariff bills passed by the late democratic house had been permitted to become laws they would have greatly injured a number of thriving industries and they would hae thrown thousands out of employment. If these are to be regarded as a sample of what a democratic administration and a democratic congress would do, then the Lord save us from this democratic onslaught. Instead of a few thousands, the i.umber thrown out of employment would be millions. And this, by the way, would only he another case of history repeating itself, for this verv thing happened

Mr. Rodenberg stopped his address and proceeded to make tho man answer himself by asking him questions; The dialogue was like this: Are you a farmer? Yes. Did you sell a horse in 189G? Yes. I sold a good horse for $10. Have you sold a horse recently? Yes, I sold one last week for $2 2.". Was it a better horse than the one you sold in 180(1? No, the one I sold in lSDfi was a much better animal. Then Mr. Rodenberg went on with his speech.

WHAT "TEDDY" SAID. Here is wlfat Colonel Theodore Roosevelt thought of William Howard Taft before the third-term bee buzzed in his hat and caused him to throw- It in the ring. It was not said ten or twenty years ago, but four years ago, namely, Sept. 9, 1908. In a letter to Conrad Kohrs of Helena, Mont... on that date, Co'cael Roosevelt said: . "The true friend of reform, the true foe. of abuses, is the man who steadily perseveres in righting wrongs, in warring against abuses, but. whose character and training are such that he never promises what he can not perform, that he always a little more than makes good what ho does promise, and that, while steadily advancing, he never permits himself to be led Into foolish excesses which would damage tho very cause he champions. In Mr. Taft we have a man who combines all of these qualities to a degree which no other man in our public life since the civil war has surpassed. To a flaming hatred of injustice, to a scorn of all that is base and mean, to a hearty sympathy with the oppressed, he unites entire disinterestedness, courage both moral and physical of the very highest type, and a kindly generosity of nature which makes him feel that all of his fellow countrymen are in very truth his friends and brothers, that their interests are his.

'and that all his great qualities are to

be spent with lavish freedom in their service. The honest man of means, the honest and law-abiding business man. can feel safe in his hands because of the very fact that the dishonest man of great wealth, the man who swindles or robs his fellows,
