Hitherto you have passively enjoyed the benefits of this Republic. Now you are to become an active factor in the gov ernment of the nation, assuming the full burden of the duties of citizenship. Though the privilege to vote comes to you without effort, do not forget that to win it men fought in battlefield and forum, and that to obtain it other men left their homes in foreign lands, severing many ties and starting life anew,. What will you do with your ballot? It is no light matter for you to decide how you shall cast your first vote, nor should you let yourself be swayed by whim or prejudice. The whole subject lies before you for calm consid eration, and it is your duty to give it this consideration. With your first vote you ally yourself with a political party. You have the opportunity to enroll yourself with the Republicans, who have made this nation what it is to-day; who have kept the faith bequeathed to them by the fathers and es tablished a firm standard of sound statesmanship, administering the government through men of proved experience and integrity. If you make that choice you asssociate yourself at once with men of achievement, leaders of the nation, and with a party of honorable tradition and performance. You become identified with the advance of civilization and can with proper pride feel that you have helped toward progress. But if any whim impels you to cast your lot with the op ponents of those who have accomplished so much, reflect well before you follow the impulse, for the so-called Democratic party of to-day has drifted completely away from its former id * .eering like a weathercock under the influence of untried and visionary leaders who champion policies born of political expediency. Remember that if you assist toward plunging the nation into want, discontent and disorder, destroying both domestic and foreigh credit, some of the blame and disgrace will rest upon you. For this year you have a voice in the election of a Presi dent of the United States. The Democrats put forward as their candidate : politician who has changed his beliefs repeatedly, who is unst ile,and un tried, and is distrusted even by members of the ptrty under whose name he conducts his canvass, many of whon make no secret of their intention to vote against him; whose fery nomi nation created widespread alarm among business md i. The Republicans offer as their candidate for the Presidency a fearless, disinterested and upright man, trained in the severe school of duty, whose career of accomplishment assures his fit ness, whose record is one of unceasing industry in exacting tacks and contains no hint of failure; whose personality has won the esteem and approval of the American people. His reputation for absolute spotlessness in both public and private life is as well known abroad as it is at home. By tem perament, capacity and experience he is qualified for the admin istration of great affairs of state, lie has shown a single-minded devotion to the scrvic.* of his country, with a broad and human sympathy to which sound appeal is never unavailing. This man is William Howard Taft. Associated with him on the ticket is James Schoolcraft Sherman, who for many years has sat in the councils of the na tion, and is skilled in the conduct of public affairs. Young man, you stand 011 the threshold of decision. Your, first step into the world of politics will have a strong influence on your life, affecting your associations and your business. Before making your decision and taking a step that cannot be retraced, read what is said on this matter by two statesmen of unquestioned probity, devoted to the best interests of the na tion, and honored for their high standards of political morality. These men are Charles E. Hughes, Governor of New York and Albert .1. Beveridge, Senator from Indiana. Governor Hughes: When we hear sounded a strident call to the defense of popular rights, we look carefully to see who constitute the new patriotic army into whose keeping we are asked to turn over the destinies of this great nation. The campaign watchwords "Shall the People Rule?" and the 3 demand "Whether the government shall remain a mere business asset j of favor-seeking corporations" are not impressive when emplazoned on the banners of Tammany Hall and of other essential allies. The army opposing us cannot pass muster either as one of defense or of salva tion, and wo may wellpause be ->ro wo permit it, despite its boast of fidelity, to garrison our institu, ns. No one more than I desires to see administration purged of every selfish taint, to have fair and impartial laws faithfully executed, to get rid of every vestige of special privilege at the expense of public inter est, to liberate trade from unjust encroachments, puriiy our electoral methods and to maintain honest representative government. And it is because of his loyalty to these ideals, because of his broad sympathies and his rare equipmont in character, ability and experience, because tested in the difficult fields of judicial and administrative work ho lias proved his quality by eminent service, because of his varied learning, his aquaintanco with affairs, his respect for constitutional government, and his capacity intelligently and justly to plan and direct necessary reforms that I most earnestly support the candidacy of William Howard Taft. Senator Beveridge: The real question is, Which candidate will make the better Presi dent? Which is the wiser and steadier? Which man would you choose aa administrator of your estate? Which would you select to manage your busines? Which has the better training and more experience? Mr. Bryan never had handled a single foreign problem. He has governed no Philippines, regenerated no Cuba, built 110 Canal, avoided no alien danger, saved us from no threatened peril. Mr. Taft has done all. It was his genius for the practical and de votion to humanity that took Philippine chaos and made Philippine order; took Philippine hate and changed it, by the alchemy of his tact, to Philippine love. It was his statesmanship that achieved the impos sible, converted an oriental people into a voting citizenship, and laid the foundation for a future which, as God wills, may become a separate nation or a glad and patriotic part of this great republic. It was William 11. Taft who set Cuba in order, established her feet in civilization's upward path; and it was he who, when so directed by President Roosevelt, who first advised with Mr. Taft, when these children of liberty tore his work to pieces, set up once more the blessed rule of order and liberty and law with a father's patience and a states man's wisdom. It is he who is commanding the practical work of that greatest enterprise of human history, the building of the Panama Canal. It was lie whose counsel President Roosevelt sought at every crisis of his historic administration; he who helped avert war when little politicians and narrow minds would have plunged us into conflict. It was William II Taft, whom our President, when confronted with for eign perplexities and with the awful weight of our ninety millions' wel fare 011 on his heart, sought for strength and wisdom; and it is William H. Taft more than any man ever called to the leadership of the Ameri can people who lias had the best training, the widest experience, and the wisest teaching to fit him for that glorious but serious task. CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 15, 1908. HASKELL IS NOT THE ONLYBURDEN Bryan Handicapped by Kerr's Corporation Connections. GUFFEY MEN tiO'.V LAUGHING [Special Correspondence.] Now York, Oct. Pennsylvanians, both Republicans und Democrats, will be interested in disclosures made by a correspondent of the New York Sun regarding the corporation connections of Bryan's in timate friend, James Kerr, of Clear field, Pa., whom he catapaulted into th« Democratic national committee at Denver after the Haskell steam roller, at Bryan's direction, bad crushed out Colonel James M. Guffey, who had not only subscribed many thousands of dollars to Bryan's campaign funds, but also furnished free of cost the stained glass windows which adorn the Bryan household at Lincoln. Hasksil, owing to the exposure of his Standard Oil connections, has had to retire from the treaaurershlp of the Democratic national committee. But Kerr still holus on. Kerr and Corporation*. Here is what a New York Sun cor respondent has just written about Mr. Kerr: "To the accompaniment of the blare of trumpets and the waving of many flags, Colonel James M. Guffey, of Pennsylvania, was convicted at Den ver of the unpardonable sin of being a corporation man, and the spotless James Kerr was Installed in his place as Democratic national committeeman from the Keystone state. Never mind the fact that Colonel Guffey was the selection by a large majority of the properly constituted delegation of Democrats of his state. The state is hopelessly for Taft anyway, and there fore personal animosities must be gratified while the ancient blufT of 'peepul' is carried out. "The Peerless Leader therefore smiled expansively and the faithful cohorts chortled for Joy when the wicked Mr. Guffey was exiled and that well known corporation hater, 'free from spot or blemish or any such thing,' was presented faultless before the representatives of the downtrodden masses: "But what Is this we find? Upon tak itig up the Directory of Directors for tlic year 1907-08—a satanic roll of malefactors, appropriately bound in red —we discover on page 347 the fol lowing entry: A Pretty Good List.

"Can this exalted apostle of civic righteousness be the same James Kerr who lor years has shared with (hut other disinterested Democrat and on? time candidate for governor of New York, the Hon. John B. Stanchfleid. the distinction —represensible but re munerative —of safeguarding the in tcrests of the New York Central in the regions which lie between Geneva on the north and WillianiKport on the south? Can this same Mr. Kerr be th immaculate defender of the 'peepul's rights who in the organization of tin New York Central's coal corporation the 'Beech Creek Coal & Coke com pany,' eat is his office and 'created wealth* by signing up an artistic col lection of common stock certificates which were not heavily weighed down by mere physical assets as equity therefor?
