MIST WORK TO WIN i Apathy Would Dim Pennsylvania's | Glory In Next Tuesday's Election. REPUBLICANS HAVE A DUTY ; They Must Get Every Vote Possible to the Polls to Keep Up Theii j Record. [Special Correspondence.] Harrisburg, Nov. 1. If tho good work which was begun weeks ago by the live Republicans 01 Pennsylvania shall be kept up until tlie polls ore dosed on Tuesday next tho prediction made by State Chairman Penrose tome time ago that the Key- I stone State will give Roosevelt the j lan I majority ever given a presi i dential candidate, will be surely ful filled. lint the len 1-TS of the Republican or ganization in ever t ounty in tho state have been impressed will* the fact that to accomplish this result extraordinary efforts must be maile during the re maining days of the campaign to get the voters interested in the election and to have them prepare not only to vote themselves but to get their neighbors to do likewise. It should not be forgotten that the farmer who loans his wagon to haul voters to the polls does his party as great a service as does the manufac turer or the banker who signs a check to meet the campaign expenses of his party's organization. The young Republican who will agree to spend the whole or part ol election day at the polls assisting the committeemen in getting out the vote should bo entitled to recognition from his party in tho future. The men who should be rewarded by the party lead ers, and this is to be the policy fol lowed under the state leadership of Senator Penrose, are those who give their time and energies to promote the interests of the party and its can didates. Abraham Lincoln once said that there was no more patriotic duty a young man could perform than to in terest his neighbors in the discussion of great political questions, and to have their vote for the party which stands for progress and the advancement of all of the material interests of the country. In tho present campaign there has a widespread interest shown by the young men in the candidacy of President Roosevelt, and in the suc cess of Republican candidates gener ally, and it is predicted that at the election of Tuesday next there will be a demonstration of young men at every polling place in this state which will attest in the most practical man ner possible the fact that the Republi can party is the party for the young American voters in this campaign. "STAY-AT-HOMERS" DANGEROUS. It is known that the Republican "stay-at-homes" were responsible for the election of Cleveland on two oc casions. A careful review of the elec tion returns in each instance showed that had the Republicans been on the alert and got their voters to the polls, the Democratic candidate for president would have been defeated. While, of course, everybody knows that Pennsylvania will go for Roose velt by a large majority, and would do so without any campaigning on the part of the Republican committeemen, yet the majority would necessarily be a reduced one. A reduced Republican majority in this state this fall would be hailed with delight by the Demo crats in every part of the country. There is no certainty that the next national house of representatives will be Republican. Should a Democratic speaker of the house be elected, to be followed by the appointment of Demo crats to all of the important places on the committees of congress, the inter ests of Pennsylvania would suffer irre parably. If 011 the top of this the Democrats could he able to point to a greatly reduced Republican majority in the Keystone state, due to indiffer ence of Republicans, the consequences would be something terrible to con template. The business and manufacturing in terests of the state would be the first to suffer, and the wage earners would quickly feel the effect of Democratic ascendency, as they did when Cleve land was president. Democratic free soup houses are not desired by the voters of Pennsylvania, and the best way to insure themselves against, this evil is for the voters to goto the polls and vote the full Repub lican ticket by placing a cross mark In the square to the right of the word Republican, which is at the top of the first column on the left-hand side of the official ballot. No citizen can be in doubt as to the policy that is to be followed by the Republican party for the next four years. Xhere is a new era of pros perity about dawning upon the Ameri ■an republic. It is dawning with much of promise for the future because the ->eople believe that there is no doubt about the election of Roosevelt. The people do not know what the Democrats would do in the event of the election of Parker and a Demo cratic house of representatives. They do not believe Parker knows himself. Parker has made so many blunders since his nomination for the presi dency that his fellow countrymen fear his election would throw the business interests into a panic. Fortunately the drift of popular sen timent is so strongly against Parker that nothing but the most remarkable apathy on the part of Republicans could make his election possible. Letters From the People. Continued from first Page. fought for and won and gave to the American people to defend. And in no way will we consent to human authority to control or interfere witli those rights of liberty of the American people. What are those rights of liberty? They are on every side of us, but the most essential rights are those thai give to the man good wages for his labor, that he can take to the support of his home that he loves so well. Protection gives the prosperity thai the common peopo are enjoying today, and it is the main key to the door ol the bright and happy homes of the American people. Uive the wage er.rncr good wages, with plenty of work, and as ho is re turning to his home in the evening shades, by the light in the window he will know that his family are gathered around a bright and cheerful fire, witli smiling faces and pleasant greetings to welcome him to his home love, peace and honor. After his evening meal as the hus band or father leans back in his easy chair, his thoughts will be '"how thankful lam there is no wolf at the door of my home to night. My family are well fed and well clothed; my children can attend school without the patches that they wore under the Wilson Hill, created by tariff for revenue only, or tarift reform, or re form tariff; I don't know how manv reforms there are to it. Did it reform the people much, or did it teach them how to be saving and not to spend the money they could not earn? Voters, do you want to take a chance on this Parker ticket, or do you think that a chance won't do much damage? There may be a great many that will think the same way, and when the chances are counted they will be for the Parker ticket. That says "Pro tection, (or high protective tariff, as they call it iis robbery. l ' That it robs the many to enrich the few. I say protection reads right the other way. It may rob the few of their greed, but it will enrich the many who are the wage earners, and it makes no differ ence if yon are a producer or a con sumer. The Democrats say that the manu facturers are selling steel rails at home for S2B 00 per ton, abroad for $22.00 per ton. Do the wage earners buy steel rails, or who at home does? Do they not have to compete in the market where they ship, with foreign labor? Does not the price of those steel rhils or any other products that are sold in the foreign markets come back home to the trade of the American people by the way of the wage earner? Is this not another proof that we should have protection. Did Mr. Davis make his barrel of money in the State where they claim he did so much for the people under the Wilson Bill? Or was it under the protective tariff created by the Repub lican party? Did Mr. Davis rob the many to enrich the few? Mr. Davis has bis barrel, be has no more use for protection; wishes something else. Voters, if you, by the cross marks of your pencils on the Bth day of Novem ber next, cut the wage earners pay in two, the wolf will be at the door of his horn?, and in his defence he will take down his rusty hoe and it will grow bright in the soil of the land as he clears it of brush and reeds to raise those same products that to-day he is buying of the farmers. He will be come a producer. And to you, young man and wand erers together round the ballot box on the Bth day of November next, I would say "vote for those homes that you know by the cross marks of your pencil; from the head to the foot ol the Roosevelt ticket, that gives pro tection to all wage earners." The "Pittsburgh I'ost" states that Mr. Hill in one of his speeches said that the common people would do well to follow where Cleveland and Bryan led. Did not the common peo ple follow where Cleveland led a few years ago? Did they do well? And did not the common people turn to the Republican party to help them out of their woes?, which they cheerfully did. Why should they not when the Re publican party was made up out of the nation's woes? Togo back fifty years the voter must have courage and be "chuck" lull of woes to vote the Fremont ticket. The Republican party has carried them onto Lincoln and on through years, till today they rest on the broad shoulders of this man of great moral courage, Roosevelt, at the head of the Republiaan ticket; a soldier and leader of men and teacher of children. They call him the rough rider. How quick he would leap into his saddle and with his ready blade defend tbe homes of the American people. Voters, protection is your pay master; he makes out your pay roll. Are you going to vote for him by your cross marks in the Roosevelt ticket? In closing I appeal to all Republi cans to vote for Mr. Howard for Rep resentative and Dr. Bardwell for County Treasurer. They represent the principles for which Roosevelt is fighting. When you vote against them you are repudiating by your act ion your confidence in Roosevelt. Yours truly, SMITH WHITMAN. CAMERON, PA., Oct. llth, 1904. First Hethodist Episcopal Church. The Rev.
