Republicans Afraid?
[Harrisburg Telegraph.l
Democratic newspapers and
orators of the brand of Baker of
New York and Cockran of the
same State have been so busy ac
cusing Republican leaders of
cowardice and with being afraid to
do this or that —solely to divert
public attention from their own
party's shortcomings—that they
have failed utterly to appreciate
the absurdity of their position be
fore the couutry. Democratic
blatherskites have a line record of
incompetency and obstruction to
stand upon while challenging the
magnificent achievements of the
party of progress and prosperity.
Afraid, indeed!
Afraid to break the fetters of a
tyrant nation from.in oppressed
people and give liberty and oppor
tunity to millions of subjects?
Afraid to hoist the Stars and
Stripes where a Democratic Presi
dent had lowered the flag of his
country.
Afraid to insist upon the open
door in the orient and the admis
sion of American goods?
Afraid to enforce a Law against a
great railroad trust whichjj the last
Democratic administration had de
clared could not be enforced?
Afraid to protect the millions in
vested in Ameriean industries giv
ing employment to great armies of
men against the output of the
underpaid foreign workers?
Afraid to stand up vigorously
for humanity and for the rights of
the individual citizen everywhere?
Afraid to make an accomplished
fact of the Panama Canal, the
waterway of the world?
Afraid to build a Navy and equip
an Army to assure the preserva
tion of peace at home and respect
abroad?
Afraid, indeed! Pretty party to
charge Republicans with cowardice
—the party of negation, the party
of dead issues, free trade, obstruct
ion, the party of isms and hobbies
and free silver.
Lincoln, the martyr; Grant, the
saviour; McKiuley, the peace
maker; Roosevelt, the builder—•
those are a few of the names which
crowd the illustrious page of the
great party of achievement, of pro
gress, of splendid policies and nat
ional greatness.
Afraid of what-—the Bakers and
Cockrans and Tillmans and Gor
mans and Brvans—the host of
blind leaders of the blind?
Bah!
Whooping Cough.
"In the spring of 1901 my children '
had whooping cough," says Mrs. D. W.
Capps, oi Capps of Capps, Ala, "I used
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy with the
most satisfactory results 1 think this is
the best remedy I have ever seen for
whooping cough." This remedy keep 9
the cough loose, lessens the severity and
frequency of the coughiug spells and
counteracts any tendency toward pneu
monia. For sale by L. Taggart.
He gives but an empty hand who
witholds his heart.
An Open Letter.
From the Chapin, S. C., News. Early
in the spring my wife and I were taken
with diarrhoea and so severe were the
pains that we called a physician who pre
scribed for us, but his medicines tailed to
give any relief. A friend who had a
bottle of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy on hand gave
each of us a dose and we at once felt the
effects. 1 procured a bottle and before
using the entire contents we were entire
ly cured. It is a wonderful remedy and
should be found in every household. 11.
C. Bailey, Editor. This remedy is for
sale by L. Taggart.
Friends seldom desert a man while bis
money holds out.

Dear Sir: If'it tool: ten gallons to
paint your house last time with somebody
else's paint, and takes 8 with Devoe, we

But that isn't a'l; that only first cost;
how long will it wear?
The paiut, that goes furthest in cover

AH paint, true paint, and full-measure,

and short-measure are on the other.
What can you expect?
