IS THAT WHAT FARMERS OF THE COUNTRY WANT 7 Short Looking Over of Conditions That Prevailed When the Demo crats Were in Power Will Just Now Be Profitable. The* last time the Democrats were in power in the United States they carried out their Free Trade threat and put wool on the free list. The sheep industry of America was de stroyed, wool sold for ten cents a pound and farmers took what they could get for their sheep. A dollar a head was the top price. And yet no man, woman or child got. a yard o) woolen cloth or a suit of woolen clothes a penny cheaper. The effect of free wool was destruction, that's all. The farmers of' Missouri, and every other sheep-raising state, lost millions of dollars and nobody re ceived any benefit. One of the Demo crats who helped bring about that disaster of fifteen years ago was Champ Clark, of Missouri, the pres ent leader of his party, and he now declares that ho learned nothing from the awful lesson of free wool. On the 21st day of last May, while he was making a speech in the House of Representatives, assailing the lie publican policy of Protection and an nouncing to the country what he and his party would do if again entrusted with power, Mr. Nicholas Longworth, of Ohio, interrupted him as follows: 'Then, if I understand the gentle man, he is in favor of no duty on any article of wool or its products." Mr. Clark replied: "T think it would be a blessing to the American people if it was all wiped out on that schedule." When he made that reninrk his Democratic colleagt>es in the House of Representatives, the men who will write a tariff law if given the chance to do so, greeted it with great ap plause. What do the farmers think of it? In the years 1893 to 1897, when we had wool, there was no applause on the Democratic side, or anywhere else. There was only distress and suffering. He Is a Republican. Congressman Charles N. Fowler, of New Jersey, failed of renomination last week but he isn't sulking. He has Issued a statement in which he says that he cheerfully acquiesces in the people's action. "I am a Repub lican," he says. "Indeed, I allow no man togo before me in loyal devo tion to the fundamental principles of the Republican party; and therefore I shall continue to fight for those prin ciples in the future as in the past within the ranks o? the Republican party." That's the way to talk. The ques tion now is, as President Taft puts it, whether we shall have in the national house of representatives a Republican or a Democratic majority. Principles are greater than men. To uphold Re publican principles, all Republicans must subordinate Individual opinions and work together. That sort of ac tion means success The only alterna tive ta a Democratic victory. Unintelligent Protectionism. In 1871 there were 25,000,000 sheep in Germany; now there are only 7,000,- 000. The unintelligent application of the principle of protection is respon sible for the enormous decrease. Free wool has made It unprofitable to raise sheep In parts of the empire. Doubtless the scientific schedule framers of the German tariff thought they were doing the right tiling when they discouraged th«- stoek raiser, but it is an open question whether the advantage gained by the manu- facturer li.it not been mora than off Bet by tin- higher price of m< at In Oernmny. Flocks of ahcep, atfgre gating 25,000,000, produced an enor mouM quantity of mutton, the diminu tion of which muMt be held respon sible for at leant a part of the high price Hermann are compelled to pay for bhmL Ban Francisco Chronicle.

OBJECT LESSON FOR AMERICA Wail From Free Trade England Should Be of Interest to the Voter Just Now. Oread in London is up one cent a loaf (of four pounds). New price 12 cents a loaf for ordinary, 13 cents for best quality, by agreement of the Lon don Master Makers' Protective society. In England the bakers' business is in deep distress and throughout the United Kingdom skilled bakers are starving.—New York Press. And this in free trade England, where for many years "the cheap loaf" has been the fraudulent free trade cry. There is no tariff there to put up the price of bread. It would have been better if there had been a tariff on farm products, for then British ag riculture would have thrived instead of almost disappearing as a produc tive industry, leaving the United Kingdom almost breadless, except for what the rest of the world could sup ply. As the case stands, bread is high; the "cheap loaf" is no longer cheap; dwindled to a point where British bakers are starving, robbed by free trade of employment and wages, are going without bread. Has the tar iff done this? Hardly, since there is no tariff in Great Britain on wheat or flour. No; it is not the tariff, but free trade that, has brought all this starvation and misery. How Will You Vote? The Republican candidate for con gress in this district believes in pro tection. Every voter knows that in congress he will resist to the utmost every Democratic effort to destroy protection and return to Democratic free trade, or, worse yet, the tariff for revenue system. The Democratic candidate for congress in this district does not be lieve in protection, but in free trade, or, worse yet, the tariff for revenue system. Every voter knows that in congress he would count one in every Democratic assault upon the Republic an principle of protection. We tried the Democratic system in the four awful years from 1893 to 1897. We have had protection and prosper ity since that time. Patriotism, as well as personal in terests and the interests of the wife and children, points out the Repub lican path of duty. Think It Over. Democrats talk as If the country were on the verge of ruin. Is It? Wages were never higher. Our factories were never busier. Our railroads never had a greater mileage or a larger number of locomo tives and cars in use every minute of the day and night. There never were so few idle men. Farmers never had so good a mar ket for the products of their farms. Prosperity never was more marked or more general. Where is the distress? Where are the soup houses? Where are the Coxey's armies? What industry is on the decline? What workingman who wants work fails to lind it? Think it over. ft Still Tearing 'Em Down. The recent declaration of Democ racy's leader, lion. Champ Clark, of Missouri, in favor of free wool and the applause of all the Democratic congressmen when he made it, show that he and his party still stand on the old free trade platform. In IXO7, Mr. Clark made another Demo cratic speech and said: "i am a free trader, and proudly take my stand with Sir Hubert Peel, Richard Cobden, John Mrlght and lieury George ... If I had my way today sir. I would tear them (custom houses) all down from turret to foundation stone." Roosevelt's Warm Indorsement. We have the right to appeal to the p< ople from the standpoint alike of national and state achievement.

Brookins' parents are Americans. Both his father and mother are living, and he has two brothers and one sister. Walter attended the public schools of Dayton and managed, between learning to run automobiles and watching the Wright brothers practise with their gliding machine, to graduate from the Dayton high school. That Is as far as he got with theoretical schooling. After that he went out into the world and became an automobile man of more than ordinary skill. He perfected himself to such an extent In that profes sion that he decided to try to become an aviator. The Wrights knew quite a little about Brookins as a hoy. In their obser vations of his automobile experiences they recognized him as a safe man for their venturesome calling. They told Walt he might have a trial. Young Brookins began as a pupil of the Wrights the latter part of last March. He practised about five hours before he went up for his first flight alone. After that he kept training daily with Orville Wright. He was the first man trained by Orville Wright and it was not long before he was Intrusted with the training of others of- the Wright school. Brookins' first big meet, really his first public appearance outside the Wright reservation at Dayton, was at Indianapolis last June, and he imme diately started in breaking world records. Hitherto Brookins has confined Ills attempts at record-breaking to his specialties of height, quick turning and slow flights. He holds the world's record for the latter now, it being 21 miles an hour. This is almost as essen tial in the training of an aviator as is quickness in turning, both demonstrat ing the operator's control of his machine and the sense of oneness with his machine that he must have to be successful. Since he started flying independently of the coaching of his trainer Brookins has made brilliant, exhibitions at Indianapolis, Montreal. Atiantio City, Toronto. Detroit, Asbury Park, N. J.. Boston and through the middle of Illinois on his wonderful flight from Chicago to Springfield. It is for his coolness and Intelligence that the Wrights have given him so many responsible opportunities of flight. Personally he is a clean, alert, self-controlled young man. He has no vices. He Is a wholesome, energetic man. CONSERVED HIS OWN LIFE | —————"""""1 Henry Wallace, the new head of the National Conservation congress, is himself a living ex ample of the possibilities in conservation of hu f \ man life. Thirty years ago, while holding the '/ ' \ pastorate of a United Presbyterian church at Morning Sun, lowa, he was informed by his phy- Wfw sician that his days were numbered and that his yiwW/ r ) only hope of prolonging life for even a reasonably \&V#/ ijaflpil. | short time was to get out of the pulpit. He did /// V.* r 'li .it not wait to preach a farewell sermon; he went ',7 ' wwi'■ ; Cmhrr ul 7 back to the farm and commenced anew the tl) tl) simple life. Today, at seventy-four he is a vig 'i '' 1 V orous and healthy man, doing his full day's labor every day and with intellect as keenly alive to every issue of the time. Mr. Wallace's special Interest in the work came to a head when he consented to associate himself with others in the work of the Roosevelt Country Life commission ' appointed a few years ago to inquire into the needs of the farms and sug gest methods of improving the life of the rural community. On that com mission he was associated with Gilford Pinchot, President Bailey, President liutterfield anil others. The presidency of the National Conservation association tame to Mr. Wallace wholly unsought. Before he had thought of attending the convention he stated clearly the demand of the friends of conservation. He said: "The people of the west demand that the government aha!! protect the remaining resources of the nation as yet under the control of the nation from ■pollation, by placing them under a cabinet officer or officers who are not merely honest, but of whose integrity and efficiency there is not the shadow of doubt, men whose affiliations have not heretofore been with the spoilers. Anything short of this will invoke the wrath of an already outraged and indig nant people." | LEADER OF 'PROGRESSIVES' _ In the battle between the regular and progres slve Republicans In New York state one of tho most prominent leaders ot the latter and the prln- j cipal leader before Colonel Roosevelt assumed • Sft command was Lloyd c.
