THEODORE ROOSEVELT,
Of Xe York.
The deeper Germany gets Into the
mire over her Chinese policy the more
will the American nation congratulate
Hself upon Its wise and conservative
leaders.
Tho spectacle of the British govern
ment shaping Its foreign policy upon
lines laid down by the United States
never was seen In the good old Demo
cratic days.
Canada Is to receive an Influx of
seven thousand subjects of the peace
loving ciar. who have been driven
from Russia by persecution on account
of their religious views.
The policy of demanding from China
ihe surrender of her citizens to for
eign powers for punishment will set
a dangerous precedent likely to recoil
at sime future time upon the nation
which now presents It.
No one believes that Mr. Bryan fav
ored the brutal assault of the mob of
Colorado Democrats upon Governor
Roosevelt It was too striking an ex
ample of the result of the good old
Democratic doctrine of the righteous
ness of popular disregard and disre
spect for law and order.
The last Issue of Finance contains an
instructive article by J. A. Joseph on
the financial status of our country. It
6hows how since the close of the civil
war and the "crime of "3" of which
we hear so little during the present
campaign our position has been entire
ly reversed. Then we were a great
debtor nation, ar.d our bonds had been
selling at London for fifty cents on
the dollar. Now we are the creditor
nation of the world, and the richest
people In existence, and the movement
during the present administration has
been steadily upward. Mr. Joseph
paints a glowing picture of the out
look for the future. Incidentally re
marking that "only the game of poli
tics keeps the bed of speculation un
der a wet blanket." The danger of
a reversal of the present upward finan
cial tendency by a return to the party
rule and policies of the Democracy can
not be too often reiterated and 1m
. pressed upon the mind of every voter.
The real issue Is the Issue of pros
perity. We know we enjoy prosperity,
we know how we got it and we know
how we can keep it. Shall we or fhall
we not render futile that knowledge
for the sake of placing Aguinaldo In a
position to massacre all the Filipinos
who have shown themselves friendly to
us?
TRUSTS FROM THE STANDPOINT
i ,. OF LABOR.
' ,
D. F, Kennedy,, organizer of the
American Federation of Labor, has Is
sued In pamphlet form a thoughtful
paper upon the trusts as viewed from
the standpoint of organized labor. Mr.
Bryan and other office-seeking cham
pions of the oppressed would do well to
show an array of argument against
the trusts which could compare with
their defense by Mr. Kennedy, either
In cogency of reasoning or accuracy
of statement.
Mr. Kennedy believes that the trust
is the inevitable result of Industrial
evolution and, like all other forms of
progress, Is destined to bless the race.
"While all progress brings destruction
ot the weak and inefficient who stick
to the ancient ruts, the greater good to
the many Is the paramount considera
tion. He does not contend that trusts are
organized front philanthropic motive,
any more than were the Invention of
Edison put upon the market for any
other purpose than his own advantage,
but that the higher Jaw which governs
all makes even the eelflshre.es of Indi
viduals contribute to the public weal.
The trust brings atout scientific pro
duction, or the maximum of product
from the minimum of effort and ex
pense. It arrives at the goal for which
competition, so much lauded, strives
comparatively In vain the cheap pro
duction and sale of goods. Mr. Ken
r.tdy considers competition "most re
lentless and heartless," the cause of
many a cut In wages and of the clos
ing of many a factory and consequent
Idleness of It employes. He says, fur
thermore: "Competitive production haa always
resulted In glutted markets at one time
with losses to those that handle the
goods during the slump In prices. At
other times there Is a shortage In pro
duction. Then the consumer suffers as
a result of high prices. What Is need
ed most Is fair prices and stability.
These can not be had through com
petitive production. We must all con
cede that trust production and dis
tribution can maintain a low price
and make that rrlce uniform and sta
ble." As an example of the possibilities
of aggregate production, Mr. Kennedy
cites the much-defamed Standard Oil
trust. While In many branches of com
petitive Industry wages have been low
ered, this great organization, through
Its very Immensity, has been enabled
to recently raise the wages of Its army
of employes ten per cent, has Improved
the Quality of Its oil and reduced the
wholesale price from 23 to 8 cents per
gallon In eighteen years.
Mr. Kennedy concludes that "trusts
and trades unions are the best example
of the triumph of mind over its en
vironment." and that the. kind of legis
lation required In dealing with the
trust question Is regulative and not
restrictive.
"I had a running sore on my leg for
seven years." writes Mrs. J as. Forest,
of Cheppewa. Falls, Wis., "and spent
hundreds of dollars In trying to get
it healed. Two boxes of Banner Salve
entirely cured it." CHAS. ROGERS.
Druggist
It Is always considered unlucky to
get married on Friday or usually on
any other day.
A good many consumptives would be
cured and the worst cases comforted
and relieved by using Foley's Honey
and Tar. Suggest It to those afflict
ed. Tou should do this as a friend.
CHAS. ROGERS. Druggist
The man whn roes ahnnt wishing
he was never born Is not the only man
wno regrets it
Ulcers, open or obstinate sores, scalds
and piles, quickly cured by Banner
Salve, the most healing medicine In the
world. CHAS. ROGERS. Druggist
When wo knnw th vPHlrnH. nf emi
nent persons, it consoles us for our
Inferiority.
Allen Halverson of West Prairie. Wis..
says: "People come ten miles to buy
Foley's Kidney Cure." while J. A. Spe
ro. of Heliner, Ind., says: "It Is the
medical wonder of the age." CHAS.
ROGERS, Druggist.
An ounce of nreventlnn Is not worth
a pound of cure in the pork-packing
business.
HOW BRIGHT'S DISEASE STARTS.
Indigestion, biliousness, blood poisoned
with urea and uric acid (which should
have been excreted by the kidneys),
rheumatic pains in nerves and Joints,
causing Irritation of the kidneys, then
pains over the small of the back, mark
sure approach of Bright' disease. Do
not delay taking Foley's Kidney Cure,
for it makes the kidneys right. Take
no substitute. CHAri. ROGERS, Drug
gist Time works wonders. So would men

they would start to treat their
kidneys with Foley's Kidney Cure,
the weariness of body and mind, back
ache, headache and rheumatic pains
would disappear. CHAS. ROGERS,
Dursgist.
Thirteen is an unlucky number to
have at table if there is only dinner
for twelve.
NO RELIEF FOR 20 TEARS.
"I had bronchitis for twenty years,"
eaid Mrs. Minerva Smith, of Danville,
111., "and at times have been bedfast.
I never got relief until I had taken
Foley's Honey and Tar. It Is pleasant
and gives quick relief, and Is a sure
cure for throat end lung disease."
Take nothing else. CHAS. ROGERS,
