I The opening speech of the
campaign was made oy senator
H G Daviii, democratic candi
date foi vice president, wherein
he pictured the beatitudes of' lie
closing decade of democrat ii
rule, from LS50 to 1800.
The Obskkvkk quoted the
leading paragraph in Saturduy'
Daper oi the Senator's rosea
picture of those halcyou dayi
together with some statistic
showinn ibat be had very disin
genuously hid the actual fi:c..
by the delusive coloring of pe
cent.
Lest some of our readers mat
thiuk that party rancot va
bies our judgpjenl we will re
produce a picture of that peiioi
drawn ut the eloe thereof, I ;
James Bueh iuan, President ol
he United Slates, in his four I
atiuuul inessiigo to OimgieM',
dled December 3, 1S00. I
should be remembered tin;
Buchanan entered upon lii
oflice as Pre.-ident March 4
1857, and in his annual message
he used these word-", and that he
was a democrat as was hi; pre
dicessor, Franklin Pierce.
L 'When I entered upnu the
duties of the presidential otli'.'e,
the aspect neither of our foreign
u ir domestic affairs was at all
lUsfuctcrv'. We were mvolvud
n dangerous complications with
cveral nations, anil two of our
(erritorlos were in a state ol
'evolution against the govnrii
nent. A restoration of the
African slave trade had numer
ous and powerful advocates.
Uulawlul military expeditions
were countenanced by many of
our citizens, and were suffered
in defiance of the efforts of tte
govern neut to oscapo from our
shores for ihe purpose of mak
ing war upon the unoffending
people of neighboring republics
wub whom we were at peace.
In addition to these and other
difllculties wo experienced a
avulsion in monetary 11 Hairs
-oon after my advent to power
of unexampled severity and if
serious consequence to all the
great interests of the country."
Wo usk our readers to care
fully read the quotation from
Piesident Buchanan's last mes
sage and compare the dismal
picture he drew of the condition
of the country during thedecude
between 1850-18CO, and the
picture of the same decade as
painted by the democratic can
did tte for vice president. Both
picture cannot be true. Statis
tics, history and tradition sub
stantiates Buchanan's. There is
nothing in history, statistics or
tradition that sustains the
assumption of Senator Davis.

all know the story 01 the man
who taught his horse how to live
without eating, but the blamed
animal went and dijd just
when it had learned bow
Don't make that mistake. Al
ways eat, but eat air, grnal
quantities of :ir, it contains
all the life giving qualities, so
its devotees allege. Au inter
esting experiment aliug this
line can be witnessed in Idaho
at present, where Senator Dubois
is simply stuffing bis followers

While the Japs ae engaged

reminded of the fact that it is
about time for the farmer to
