T STANDARD OIL SLIME OVER ALL r OUR PROSPERITY WIZARD EVEN Mr. Taft has become timid as to the effect of Mr. Bryan, and Is telling his audiences of his affright lest prosperity be checked. The clearing house cer tificates, the Idle' cars, the unem ployed workingmen, the closed fac tories are 'memories of that grand wave of prosperity t.taat was ours with Mr. Taft and his chief piloting the country, i These things ought to cause us to be thankful that in Wll ' liam H. Taft we have the real and only dispenser of prosperity, and that we have from his own lips that he and not the Almighty, the seasons and the soil, are to be trusted for material blessings. We ought to have known all along without waiting for his assurance that Mr. Taft was the man, and that the day after his election, It elected all the mills, mines and factories would resume operation, and all the million or so of men now . idle, would be set ' toi work at high wages. In deed,, prosperity should be shed to the four corners of the earth if the benighted : everywhere will oijly i watch Mr. Taft perform and copy his performance. They will see him revising the tariff by raising some - Schedules so that all the trusts will make more money, while at the same time ail owners of trust articles will get them at reduced, prices. They will see him . make the currency so elastic that no matter what a man's Income is, lie can stretch it to make both ends meet. They will see him encourage good trusts, and punish bad ones by scolding them until they become ashamed and reduce prices to consumers. They will see him build up our merchant marine with sub sidies to rich ship owners, but collect the money from the people in such a way that their taxes will be lowered. It takes a wizard to do all these things, but as a fountain of pros terity, Mr. Taft Is the Grand Pan jandrum. HE Art-hbold letters read by Mr Hearst to New York last bt urday evening are tne most im portant, and deserve the most attention, of any that he has made publlo during the campaign. They show beyond question that Standard Oil not only owned members of con gress, and of legislatures, and ex ecutive officers, but also through ap pointment by one of.ifr guberna torial tools, secured Judges of courts devoted to Its interests. The feeble defense offered by those implicated carries conviction to no unbiased mind. People generally knew that Stand ard Oil 'and allied trusts, coruora Ions and Interest had a strong hold on and control over the legislative department of government, but they have been' loth to believe that the courts were subservient to these In terests though many decisions have indicated that such (was the case, But here are two cases in which Mr, Archbold of Standard rOil practically appointed Important Judges, who are on the bench yet, and he uid not dis guise to Governor Stone the fact that they were to be appointed to perve Standard Oil to decide In its favor as against the people. Stone was a notorious tool of the predatory and plundering trusts while in con greeB, and was chosen governor, at the order jQf he late Boss Quay; but ow many similar governors nave there been In .northern states during the past 20 years? And how many judges were nominated at conven tlons through like Influences? No one can tell. It Is a serious, a ter rible thing to contemplate, that our courts, even a few of them, are thus corrupted by this and other monster robbers of the people. In this connection It Is tlraejy to observe that for the past 12 years, at least, naturally, these corrupted officials, these traitors to the people, these Judases, have been identified with the Republican party. There are two reasons for this; first, that party waa in power in all depart ments of the government and In nearly all northern states, so It was the one for the predacious plutocrats to deal with; and second, that party has maintained as its leading "prin ciple" one that unjustly and ln lquitously robs the many for the benefit, the enrichment of the few, The protected Interests dictate the tariff laws la their Interest; why should they not go a step further In the same direction and dictate the administration of executives and the decisions of courts? Indeed they have done so, to some extent, as ' Small Change Help build the local etaotrle railroads. . - Ths "whirlwind" finish Is on In Kw Tor. , .. Nobody hara from Utile Ma-too Dick, Hilar.

It goes without saying that the mass of Republicans are Just as hon est and worthy as those of any other party, but the point is that too many of the leaders and office-holders of that party, long In power, have be come corrupted, have become allies, servants, tools of Standard Oil and the trusts and great corporations and financial Interests, to the people's Teddy?

I Roosevelt wrote to Mr. Harrlman in part as follows: "If you think there is nothing special I should be in formed about, or no matter in which I could give aid, why, of course, give up the visit for the time being, and then, a few weeks hence, before write my message, I shall get you to come down to discuss certain govern ment matters not connected with the campaign." Now what did he mean? With all his lecturing and preaching and letter-writing and Big Stick swinging, he has never explained this letter. THE CAUSE OF THE PANIC M FORAKER AND ALDRICH w HY have Roosevelt and Taft ' In ostracised Foraker, and not VV Aldrlch? Foraker took fees from Standard Oil, years ago, and through Hearst It became - known. Roosevelt and Taft knew! all about Foraker, and never went j back on him until Hearst read the Archbold letters; then they dropped him. But Foraker Is a saint beside Aldrlch. He is an outspoken, fairly honest man. He never pretended to be a reformer of the Roosevelt type. Neither, indeed, has Aldrlch, but where Foraker pocketed a few thou sands, Aldrlch makes millions. But Roosevelt and Taft have no objec tion to Aldrlch. If he were now a candidate for reelection Roosevelt would support him, as against the beet Democrat ln the midget state. . This can be asserted ln view of Rooeevelt's support of Hopkins, and Lortmer ln Illinois, Long ln Kansas, and various men worse tarred than Foraker is. What sort of con sistency la thla? Aldrlch Is a Stand ard Oil and trnst senator; everybody aaows It. He la the leader of the party In the senate. ,He very largely control legislation there. He Is worse than half a dozen Foraker. i Vet the president hat never peeped tn opposition to Aldrlch. . Neither baa Taft. Either Roosevelt and Taft are utterly Insincere with respect to the vaunted "pollclee," or they r aren't the courage, of a pair of f er. Do they approve of .Aldrlch rd fcls follower In the senate, or r ? Er!d-Bt2y tbey do. Yet tber ,:rr-; Forakef beraw the public was S-forr'4 ef a few IltUe Incident. Co(.;i political hypocrisy go any far- Rj TAFT says last year's panlo was caused by too much growth and expansion. A lo cal paper ventures a little far ther and says it was caused by too much prosperity. What bosh this Js. The panic was caused by a small group of , high-finance kings, chief among whom were J. P. Morgan and J. D. Rockefeller, for the purpose of breaking some fellows who aspired to financial rivalry, and for the fur ther and principal purpose of mak ing a good many millions of dollars, which they did. Helnze happened to be the key-log in the situation; when these great patriots succeeded in dislodging him, the flood was out. He, and Morse, and others no doubt deserved to be broken; they were doing a sort of business that If not entirely ille gitimate, was scarcely better than highway robbery; but Morgan and Rockefeller are In substantially the same sort of business tnemseives. The difference is that the latter do a perfectly safe business for them selves. They have tens of millions at command at any time. They have piled up such colossal fortunes out of the labor and products of the coun try that they can conduct their busi ness in a "sane and safe" manner. The members of this group are all- powerful ln financial circles not only on account of the prodigious amount of money that they can bring Into i use any day, but because they are constantly ln close alliance with the federal government. The secretary of the treasury is their humble and obedient servant on every occasion. Mr. Cortelyou Is only a clerk for Mr. Morgan, who is the real secretary of the treasury, and he runs it in the interest of J. P. Morgan & Co. The president obeys his every sugges tion. Morgan ft Co. made money In two j ways by bringing on the panic. They picked up propertls of Immense value for comparatively little cash We showed Saturday how In one in- ttanre tbr got property worth $1,- ooo. 900. 000 for $45,000,000. They broke up a lot of competitors and would-be rivals. They acooped in millions from all sides. Then the tanlc bavins; been brought Into full suing, Mr. Morgan ordered Mr. Cor telyou to authorize a mtbod of re Ifovlng the country by which Morgan i Co. mad eeveral milliecs more, and relieved an body. This In brief la the history of the supposed. Of course Morgan & Co. are for him. They could well afford to contribute several millions to his campaign fund, if that would insure his election. 17, W.

FAMILY" IX THE A' CORRESPONDENT of the morning paper who gets his political ideas in Wall street, writes: " 'Fool Kansas' that has been buncoed by Bryan's bank deposit guarantee idea, is still caus ing alarm at Republican head quarters." ' Kansas, or any other state, can well afford to be considered a "fool" state by Wall street, for what Wall street means is that Kansas Is tak Ing means to get out of Wall street's grip to some extent. Kansas means to have no more panics, started by the financial giants of Wall street. Whenever a state does anything to become more independent of the trusts, the financial pirates, and the political bosses who are their tools, it is called a "fool" state by the or gans. Oregon, it will be remembered, has been characterized by the Port land trust organ as "the fool of the family," because it took measures to take power away from selfish, un scrupulous and unworthy political bosses and non-representative legis latures and gave it to the people, where it belongs. So now Kansas, whose people propose that deposits In banks shall be secure, and that panics on account of bank wrecking shall cease, is, another "fool" state. Within a few years there are like ly to be a good many of these "fool" states, to the great disgust of Wall street and the organs of the trusts and predatory Interests. table cannery.
