HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF
Twice before in our history we
have had a presidential campaign
much like the present. In 1844, Mr.
Polk of Tennessee was nominated
for president and Mr. Dallas of Penn
sylvania for .vice-president on the
Democratic ticket". Mr. Polk was sup
posed to be a low tariff man while
Mr. Dallas was a protectionist. With
this ticket they thought they would
be enabled to go throughout the
country preaching either protection
or free trade where it would best
serve their purpose. In other words
the battle cry was "Polk' Dallas and
the Tariff of '42,', which meant that
while Polk was a free trader they
would abide by the then existing tar
iff that was thoroughly protective.
The result was that Polk and Dallas
were elected and in 1846 was passed
the famous free trade law of that
year made possible by the vote" of the
vice president himself, who had been
put on the ticket because he was a
protectionist, and for fcmrteen years
we ' had as near free trade in this
country as was possible with such
hardships and times of - anguish and
pity that we do not like to recall
them.
Again in 1892 the Democratic party
nominated for its standard bearer the
free trader, Grover Cleveland. Mr
Cleveland had served a term as pres
ident but he had not been able to car
ry out his tariff ideas because con
gress was not of the same 'belief. He
j was elected and with him a house and
senate and we got the ' Wilson free
i trade law which Mr. Cleveland would
T ! not sign, not because he thought it
J would ruin our industries but because
' it did not go far enough toward the
i free trade which he desired. We had
those years of idleness and low wages
or no wages, those years of unprofit
! able farming, those years of increas
led imports which displaced American
goods and those years of distress and
starvation so prevalent in every large
city and community from the Atlantic
to the Pacific.
And now we come again to the nom
ination by the Democratic party of
another avowed free trade.-, but,, the
Democratic party,, fearing to arouse
the, hostility of the laboring classes,
both in the factory and on the farm,
says in its platform:
'We jrecognize our system of tariff
taxation is ultimately connected with
the business of . the country and we
favor the ultimate attainment of the
principle we advocate by legislation
that will not injure or destroy legiti
mate industry,"
And Mr. Wilson is already telling
the people of the country that while
he believes in ultimate free trade, in
taking off every duty that is not nec
essary for revenue, yet he would go
about it very gradually and kill only
one industry at a time. The Amer
ican people should by this time be
wise to such proceedings. They have
had two doses of this kind of medi
cine, and we do not believe that they
will accept the statement of the free
trade party or the free trade candi
date that if successful they will in
jure no American industry. The on
ly way to prevent history repeating
itself is to re-elect Mr. Taft and the
Republican congress and then there
can be no doubt that an American
workman will lose his job or any
American farmer his market.
' In two weeks our ,Bidle contest
starts. This revival in Bible study is
being welcomed by all the churches.
Wo are el ad to have the co-opera
tion of the churches, the pastors and
Sunday School workers, in this im
portant undertaking.
no nrizes that are offered are in
trinsically valuable and the Diplomas
given to all who complete the course
will confer a great honor upon them;
but the greatest prize or an is
study itself; no words can overstate
its value. All teachers of boys and
girls, say of fifteen years and over,
shouldd urge them to take up this and
Arkansas Thought to Be .the
Fastest American Battleship
will find this contest to be a great
stimulus, to their work if they per
sonally get behind it and set the ex
ample. Many pastors call attention
to the I, P. B .Q. C. from the pulpit
and urge their people to join and par-
Hilnota in Ma hraefitj ff have HO
doubt ttat the pastors of Oregon City 1
will not be. one whit Dehina tnose oi
other towns4. We have reason to be
lieve that parents are encouraging
their grown-up children to take this
course and we urge upon all parents
tn follow the eood example.

sary for these studies, so order it for
yourself, or a friend.

whipped till the body te bloody:" Four-
pence each was the recognized charge
made by tile "whipimin" for every
male and females vagrant who passed
through his hands, but on special ocea

She DISREGARDS ETHICS and gets very vexed
when CRITICISED. Many times a poor girl has married
a rich man and then PLUNGES HEADLONG into SO

There are too much IRREVERENCE, INDECENCY and GOD
LESSNESS among our SOCIAL IDLERS at the American sum
mer resorts.
Another danger i3 our LACK OF OBEDIENCE FOR LAW
AND ORDER. Our youth are terribly lacking in RESPECT for
