RJNIONi THURSDAY, SEPT. 27, 1906. TO REPUBLICANS: Wc are anxious to have every Republican in close touch, and working in harmony with the Republican National Congressional Committee In favor of the election of a Republican Congress. The Congressional campaign must be based on the administrative and legislative record of the party, and, that being so, Theodore Roosevelt's personality must be a central figure and his achievements 9. central thought in the campaign. We desire to maintain the work of this campaign with popular subscriptions of One Dollar each from Republicans. To each subscriber we will send the Republican National Campaign Text Book and all documents issued by the Committee. Help us achieve a great victory, James S. Sherman, Chairman. P O. Box scCj, New York, AS TO HIGH TAXES. Tom Taggart's puppet press purveyors, one of the cogs - in the crafty French Lick politician's game, are crying high taxes, says the Evansville Journal. Statistics open to all citizens of Indiana show that under ten years of Republican administration in the state the taxes have been reduced 15 per cent. Of course it would be possible under hard times and depreciated values such as the country witnessed In Grover Cleveland's free trade years to have property valuations so low that taxes would go to the vanishing point. Without property and prosperity men pay no taxes. The Democrats simply employ another one of their many-sided arguments to try to prove to the people that empty purses are better than full purses and mortgages are better than clear titles and bank accounts. Tom Taggart and Joe Fanning, the great leaders of Indiana Democracy, have both been busy this season. Taggart had his Inning with the Monte Carlo sensation at French Lick and Fanning gets out of the State to pose in the limelight of publicity. Fanning claims Indianapolis as his home and his the "side partner" of Taggart, but at present he is in Buffalo taking a hand In the State Democratic convention. According to Buffalo advices, Fanning is alleged to have offered $3,000 to a delegate if he would cast his vote against Hearst. Fanning says its a lie. . George Bernard Shaw favors the short-cut in spelling. If Shaw would shorten some of his own words to the extent of cutting out altogether a few of the articles he has penned, he would have helped some. According to an estimate of a Richmond man who is interested in the matter, no less than 5,000 Richmond people visited Indiana and Ohio fairs this season. One day alone saw 750 persons go to Greenville; another day nearly 900 went to the Eaton fair; while the State fair and various others drew well from Richmond. Estimating that each of these persons spent the minimum of $3 (and most of them spent twice or three times the amount) there was a total of $15,000 expended for fairs by Richmond people. This local gentleman asks the Palladium: "Did it ever occur to Richmond business men that the city is one of the very few in Indiana and Ohio that does not support a fair?

THE RICHMOND PALLAOIO

lecause we have tried it several times md failed, is no reason why we should not go into it properly this ime and succeed. The fair must lot be a private money-making enterprise. It must be an association that vill give the fairs with the one idea n view of doing good for the commu:ity. It can be done. The time to rganize a fair' association is in the all or winter. Richmond needs a air and it will be the means of not nly bringing thousands of visitors lere'but will also be the means, of teeping thousands of Richmond peo--le at home. The money is needed ;s much by Richmond merchants as by anybody else." The Richmond nan , is evidently enthusiastic, from he tone of his communication, but the Palladium believes he may not be too much so. There Is a field for a fair " association in Richmond that is nade up of the business men and one A-hich will not have for its aim the

naking of profit. Whatever profits J lo enter the treasury should be used to keeping up the fair and making it better, not allowed to be apportioned out in dividends. The project is feasible as well as laudable. It needs a head to the movement right now if Richmond is to get in line next season. BY ACCLAMATION Insurance Investigator to Head the Republican Ticket - in New York, IS CHOICE OF ROOSEVELT LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR BRUCE RENOMINATED PLATFORM DECLARES FOR REVISION OF V TARIFF BY ITS FRIENDS. Saratoga, X. Y., Sept. 26. Temporary Chairman Driscoll called the Republican state convention to order a little after the appointed time. State Senator W. W. Armstrong, of Rochester, was unanimously elected permanent chairman, and on assuming the gavel spoke at considerable length on the respective records of the Democratic and Republican parties in the administration of state and national affairs. The committee on resolutions then made its" report, which was adopted without dissent. . The platform indorses the administration of President Roosevelt and " affirms the wisdom of a protective tariff. It is demanded "that tariff revision as occasion may require, be entrusted to its friends, and not to its enemies." Other features are: Legislation for the restoration of an American merchant marine, "so that the hundreds cf millions "now paid to foreign shipping interests may be paid to our own people, so that our forCUAXtXa X. BVGIU. ign commerce may be strengthened and enlarged, and so that we may have an Invaluable reserve power of ships and men in case of war. The stand taken by President Roosevelt in his application of the eight hour law is endorsed and reduction of representation in the electoral college and in congress to offset suppression of the elective franchise is demanded. Charles E. Hughes, who conducted the insurance investigation before the legislative committee was" placed in nomination for the governorship by Job E. Hedges of New York county. The nomination was greeted with tre mendous enthusiasm. Senator Tully, of Steuben county, seconded the nomination. Mr. Hughes was nominated by ac clamation. For lieutenant governor, M. Linn Bruce was similarly renom inated. On motion, one ballot was cast for the re-nomination of John F. O'Brien for secretary of state; J. Lewis, for comptroller; Julius Mayer, for attor ney general; J. G. Wallenmeier, for state treasurer, and H. A. Van Alstyn? for state engineer and surveyor. Ex-Lieutenant Governor Timothy L Woodruff, of Kings county, was elect ed chairman of the state committee, succeeding eSrgovernor B. B. Ode 11, Jr. The co - ' - 'Htimed. NOTICE TO SUBSCRIBERS.

Buffalo, N. Y., Sept. 26. "If they nominate a decent Republican at Saratoga, I will go upon the stump and plead for the defeat of William R. Hearst," declared District Attorney Jerome, at an adjourned session of the Albany conference of antiHearst Democrats. "I will appeal for his defeat not on the ground that it is a political Issue, but because the issue raise'd is that of political freedom. We do not think that it is a Demcratic convention. It is not representative. I for one believe we are entirely ab solved from any obligation to support a ticket put together in a back room by Charley Murphy, Pat McCarren and Tim Sullivan." Southern Lumber Men. St. Louis, Sept. 26. Over 56 representatives of the Lumbermen' association of Missouri, Texas, Alabama, Louisiana and Mississippi, assembled at the Jefferson thoteI to make preliminary arrangements for forming an association which will represent an organization of $7,000,000 and be known as the Southern Lumber Operators' association.
