He speaks In favor of Mr. Taft Let no one mistake his object John D. Rockefeller has done dirty stunts before In the memory of man. He, the real Inventor of Injured innocence the despoller of business the most dangerous enemy of good government the corrupter of legislatures, the house of representatives and the senate tha enemy of all America he support Taft and the Roosevelt administration. Tes he! But why! Because lie Is In favor or Bryan because he believes that with Bryan as president there would be a standstill, a dead lock because in the uncertainty of two years wait, stocks would fall and he, with hie resources could buy them at a bargain rate and hold them for better conditions. Then if he did not sell them at a profit the dividends would flow into his coffers. Oh that unselfish Mr. Rockefeller the patron of good government! It Is the slickest campaign dodge that could have been pulled off. Mr. Rockefeller knows full well the aroma of tainted coal oil that hangs rbout his unsavory name. He knows what that name and the name of his company stand for. He is shrewd enough to see, or has hired shrewd minds to see, the best thing to do to attack the first administration which has ever dared to come la conflict with his company was to support It openly. He knows that the very mention of his name In connection with the sup

port of a candidate can have the opposite effect. Those persons must be fat wltted Indeed who can picture this vulture who has fed on the destruction of business as the friend of good government. Will the people of America be deceived into affording this man the means of buying still further Interests In the ownership of the business of the country? Let no one be deceived by this kindly old gentleman of single motives, the unsophisticated, harmless, Inno-

Icent, man who comes out with his self forget ting, coal oil and blood soaked bouquet with which he hopes to smirch Mr." Taft. Some games of the Standard are be.'yond the comprehension of man but any American citizen who stops to think can not fail to gee the true Inwardness of Mr. Rockefeller's disinterested little scheme, played on the eve of the election. Rockefeller has no love for the man who caused the vigorous prosecution and the moral awakening which laid bare the workings of the infernal machine designated as the Standard. Can you be fooled? ASKS EMPLOYES TO FIGHT WATSON (Continued from Page One) of William E. Blodgett, special correspondent. Blodgett Is known personally to a large number of persons in this city. He made Richmond hia home at one time and was connected with a local newspaper. Personal friends do not believe Blodgett's writings are instigated by his own personality, but the orders from headquarters. It will be remembered that only a few months ago Blodgett made a tour of Indiana. His subject at the time dealt with the violations of law by the saloons and brewery trust The machivations of the liquor interests in all of the principal cities were divulged. Direct charges were made of violations of the law. The saloons were placed in the most unfavorable light It was possible for the versatile writer to obtain by use of words. Note the result. When the republicans of the Sixth district met in congressional convention at Shelbyvllle, William E. Blodgett was detailed to cover the meeting. He came as the representative of the" Indianapolis News. There were some among the "liberals' of the delegates who were incensed by Blodgett's appearance. They wanted him barred from the convention. Not only did they want him barred but they put their desire in the form of a complaint to the district chairman. It was claimed Blodgett had been misrepresenting facts in his articles upon the salouns and in order to retaliate he should be prevented from the privileges of the floor at the convention hall. The district chairman opposed the proposition. He told the remonstrators any effort to bar a newspaper correspondent would appear as ridiculous. Now comes the change. The Indianapolis News has sent Blodgett on another tour of the state. He Is visiting republican counties and endeavoring to scare up scandal. To each county seat ho goes he looks for the same thing some way to cast reflections on the republican administration. Ho is keeping clear of democratic counties. From casting reflections on saloons. Blodgett has turned to muck-raking in the republican counties. ONE TOWN WILL NOT GIVE BRYAN 100 VOTES. At the Westcott hotel this morning a well known business man offered to bet with a friend that he could name a city in the United States with a population of over 200,000 that would not give Bryan one hundred votes. On the surface the bet listened like pilfering currency from Little Johnny's bank, but after digesting the bet thoroughly the friend turned down the wager. He chanced to recollect that Washington, D. C. has a population of over 200,000. Those who fail to grasp this can obtain the desired information by communicating with the sporting editor of this paper. LETTER LIST.

You can do what you please," said Joseph Smith to hi3 wife, Alice, as he unlocked the door that kept her in tho county jail. "I am glad to go out," said Mrs. Smith, '"but I love Charley and I will go with him." Smith walked to another part of the jail and nisi wife followed. He looked through the bars at his brother, Charles Smith. "I am going to let you out,"' he said, as he unlocked the door. Charles came out, but said nothing. Mrs. Smith ioined him and they walked away together. Head to Mead Talks. By EDWIN A. NYC Copyright. 19W. by Edwin A. Nye. CAPTAIN CRIDLEYS MOTHER. "You may fire when ready. Grldley!" The laconic command of Admiral Dewey to Captain Grldley of the flagship Olympia In Manila harbor will long live In the annals of the American navy, rich as It is in historic utterance. Grldley gave the word to the gun crews that sank the Spanish flagship and made junk of the fleet of Spain. A month afterward the brave Grldley paid the forfeit of that day's work with his life. Every schoolboy knows about Gridley and the one 6lded battle of Manila Bay. Few of us have known about the mother of the Olympla's commanderno less an American heroine than was her eon a hero. At the age of eighty -three Mrs. Anna Grldley serves her government, earning her bread by putting the red seal on all official letters that go out of her department. Some days she will affix fas many as 400 seals. Hers has been a career mingled with sorrow and heroism. Fifty years ago she lived In a Michigan town. Her eldest son the future captain wanted to go to Annapolis. The mother was loath to see blm go. With her it was the terrible Btruggle twlxt love and duty." - She was patriotic and lent her boy to the country. Three years after the civil war broke out.

An Election Primer Pertinent Points About Our Election Machinery For New Voters and Old

THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY. When did the Democratic party first appear in national politics? Under its present name the party first appeared in 1S2S, when Andrew Jackson was elected president as the party candidate. Te Democratic party, however, so far as its chief principles go, dates from the beginning of the republic. Who is regarded as the party's founder! Thomas Jefferson. When the constitution, of the United States was under discussion in convention the opposing theories of Thomas Jefferson and Alexander Hamilton constituted the principal difference of opinion. Jefferson and his adherents leaned far toward local self government, while Hamilton and his faction stood for a strong cen tralized government. In after years the Jeffersonian theories became crystallized into what was called at first the Republican party, later the Republican-Democratic party and finally the Democratic party. The present Republican party, then, is entirely distinct from the one of Jefferson's time ? Entirely eo. It i3 descended, through the Whig party, from the Hamiltonian or Federalist party, which took tho opposite view to that of Jefferson. What presidents has the Democracy elected? Thomas Jefferson twice, J ames Madison twice, James Monroe

. twice, John Quincy Adams, Andrew Jackson twice, Martin Van Euren, James K. Polk, Franklin Pierce, James Buchanan, Grover Cleveland twice. What is the Democratic party'i position as to tariff ? It stands for ft low tariff or a tariff for revenue only.

The dramatic jail incident is the climax of a Ktrange story of love. Charles was the woman's first sweetheart, but he Jilted her for another. Then she married Joseph, but when her sister-in-law died she eloped with Charle3. The couple were arrested and placed In jail. . Joseph now refuses to prosecute. The sheriff said ha did not want to be the one to let him out, but that if Joseph was determined he could let them out himself. Then be handed him the kens and the release came. When he let hia wife out Joseph helped her on with her coat. "Joseph," she eald, "you have been a good friend to me. If I ever need a friend again I will come to you."

The call came for army nurse. At home Mrs. Grldley bad an Invalid husband and two small children. Again came the struggle between love and duty. She went to the front as a nurse. While she was In the field an epidemic took away her husband and two children, leaving to her only the son. Again the clouds of war broke. The battle of Manila was fought There was no prouder woman than Mrs. Grldley. A few weeks later her only eon waa burled wlrti honors. - And now the old mother recollects that though ber boy was III that fateful day of the battle, he stuck to his post And so sbe sticks no less bravely to ber task, having nothing now but ber memories and ber dally task. In Europe the mother of such a noted captain would be given a pension for life. Grtdleys mother asks no pension. She asks only the chance to work for the government to which sbe has given her all a chance to work at eightythree! The formula seldom falls: Behind the man look for the mother. KILLED BY AUTO.

Bid Breath and

Sour Stomach Stopped At Once With Pure Willow Charcoal, the Greatest Gas Absorber Known. There is no necessity to suffer the humiliation, chargln and discomfort of bad breath, biliousness, sour stomach, gastritis, sluggfsh liver, etc., when a little lozenge of charcoal will cleanse the stomach and make it pure and sweet Do not drug yourself when a simple little natural charcoal made from fragrant willow branches, sweetened with honey, will add tone to your stomach, liver and Intestines, rapidly absorb gases and stop foul odors of all kinds. Charcoal will absorb one hundred times its own volume in gas. A box full of charcoal placed In a bed room will keep the air of such a room pure and sweet A little charcoal lozenge dissolved on the tongue after meals will also keep the stomach fresh and clean. Charcoal is justly called the scrubbing brush for the stomach. The old monks of medieval times cured bad cases of stomach trouble, cast out dev. its from the sYsteni of man by feeding such a man charcoal. Scientific men of today believe in the great strength of charcoal for the cure of human Ills. Too much of tt cannot harm one. The system craves it just like an animal needs and craves salt every so often. Charcoal goes Into the stomach gently and U welcome. It settles down through the action of toe stomach, and filters through all the food, absorbing gas, aiding digestion and giving tone to the juices, so that when the food goes Into the Intestines, and there meets other digestive fluids, the charcoal holds the impurities and thus keeps them from the blood. Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges ar made from pure willow. They ara prepared fragrant by the use of honey and sweetened so they please tha taste and are easily dissolved. They have an enormous sale, thui stamping them with the approval ol the public Every druggist sells them, 25 cents per box. Go to your druggist today and buy a box; then after your uext meal take two 01 three of them and judge for your sell or their merit .
