YOUNG VOTERS.
A poll of the first voters in Indinna
shows that more than three thousand
young men whose fathers were Demo-
crats have announced their intention of
voting the Republican ticket this fall.
These young men have been studying
American history and find that there is
not a single important statute on the
books or a single administrative act of
general benefit to the American people
to the credit of the Democratic party
in the last half century. They find,
as any young man can find by looking
over the history of the country or the
history of the Democratic party, that it
has not a single act of either legisla-
tion or administration now under dis-
cussion to which it can lay any claim
whatever.
The Democratic party has been only
the brake on the wheel of progress. It
has not advocated a single policy in the
last half century that has been adopted
by the people, and there is only one
Republican policy that has been enact-
ed into law which the Democratic
party has not finally approved after it
demonstrated its success. The one Re-
publican policy which still meets with
Democratic disapproval is that of pro-
tection to American industries. Indi-
vidual Democrats of the North may ap-
prove this Republican policy which has
diversified industry and added to the
wealth and prosperity of the country,
but the Democratic party as an organi-
zation continues to oppose it as uncon-
stitutional and as robbery, and advo-
cate a return to the old Democratic
doctrine of free trade.
The South dictates the policy of the
Democratic party now as it did before
the war, when it had slave labor to
compete with the free labor of the
North. The South still has cheap la-
bor and child labor. The politicians of
the South have insisted that this ques-
tion of child labor is a purely local
question, just as they have insisted that
the race question is purely local. They
demand that the South shall be left
alone in working out its industrial and
economic questions. but at the same
time they control the Democratic party
in Congress, and there they dictate a
policy that would take from American
labor the protection given by the tariff,
to place this labar on the same footing
with the cheap labor of Europe. They
do this because the South has little to
lose by free trade. It has cheap labor
in the millions of Negroes kept in ig-
norance and in white child labor which
is prohibited by law in every Northern
state.
It is not surprising that the young
men of Indiana whose fathers were
Democrats are turning to Roosevelt
and the Republican party. The young
men of this country are studying his-
tory and learning business methods.
They have an ambition to do some-
thing. They are not willing to go to
the polls only to protest against doing
something, or to surrender their busi-
nessa judgment to the men of the South
who still study the writings of political
economists of nearly a hundred years
ago to form their economic policies for
to-day. The young men’ of to-day
want to be associated with those who
are doing something. and something
that will stand the test of their own
judgment and experience in business
affairs. They know that a Democratic
Congress would be controlled by the
men from the South, and not by Demo-
crats from the North. They know that
these Southern men have no considera-
tion for the man who earns his living
by manual labor, but still try to con-
tinue the old policy of cheap labor,
even at the sacrifice of the little chil-
dren,
HERB W.EDWARDS INJURED.
Herb W. Edwards, of Des Moines,
Towa, got a'fall on an iey walk last
winter, spraining his wrist and bruis-
ing his knee. “The next day,” he says,
“they were so sore and stiff I was
afraid I would have to stay in bed, but
I rubbed them well with Chamberlain’s
Pain Balm, and after a few applications
all soreness had disappeared.” For sale

WHAT WILL BE SURRENDERED.
An army when contemplating retreat
or capitulation first considers what it
shall surrender. Let us suppose that
the American people on the 8th of next
November capitulate to the Demo-
cratic party and its leaders, Parker
and Davis. What should we have to
surrender?
First—If Judge Parker and his sup-
porters were able to carry out their
purpose, we should surrender the Phil-
ippines and whatever advantage we
may now possess by holding those Ts-
lands in the Pacific.
Second—We should surrender all
claim to the Panama strip and abandon
the undertaking entirely. :
Third—We should tear down our tar-
iff wall and subject our own labor and
industries to the competition of the
world, thereby surrendering a home
market worth (from twenty to thirty
billion dollars a year.
And next we should probably in the
near future surrender our honor itself,
as the Democratic party is still con-
trolled by the advocates of free silver
and a fifty-cent dollar.
These are but three or four of the
important possessions which we should
abandon ; but when the flag is pulled
down, when all attempts at future pro-
gress and prosperity are abandoned,
and when honor itself is lost, what else
would there be worth retaining? The
view would be a gloomy one, indeed,
were the suécess of Mr. Parker and his
party at all likely. Happily, however,
there is not the least shadow of a pos-
sibility that-we shall have to surrender
our birthright and everything else we
possess, providing that the people are
not too confident and neglect their op-
portunity on election day not only to
elect = Republican candidate, but to
give the Democratic candidate such an
overwhelming defeat that the party
will remember it for a generation.

WAITING.
I wait in the twilight shadows, love,
For your kiss of long ago,
And the press of your hand on my
weary brow,
And the smile I used to know.
I am tired and foot:ore, and long is the
way,
And the years drift slowly by,
And the glory of life has slipped from
me,
And the voice of the world is a cry.
The little cot on the windy hill
Through the drift of the years has
stood,
But where is your step in its lonely
halls
Which thrilled its heart of wood?
Alas, it is gone, and silence reigns
On the crags the shades crept o'er,
And the glory of life has gone from me,
Yet I wait for my love of yore.
Come over the wreckage of crumbled
dreams
Of days that are dead, sweet olden
guest,
And bear me away in your tender arms
To the Isles of Eternal Rest.

The Other Fellow’s Job.
There’s a craze among us mortals that
is cruel hard to name. 3
Wheresoe’er you find a human you will
find the case the same;
You may seek among the worst of men
or seek among the best,
And you'll find that every person is pre-
cisely like the rest,
Each believes that his real calling is
along some other line
Than the one at which he’s working—
take, for instance, yours and mine;
From the meanest “me-too” creature to
the leader of the mob,
There’s a universal craving for “the
other fellow’s job.”
There are millions of positions in the
busy world to-day,
Each a drudge to him who holds it, but
to him who doesn’t, play;
Every farmer’s broken-hearted that in
youth he missed his call,
While that same unhappy farmer is the
envy of us all.
Any task you care to mention seems a
vastly better lot :
Than the one especial something which
you happen to have got.
There’s but one sure way to smother
envy’s heartache and her sob;
Keep too busy at your own to want “the
other fellow’s job.”

A BARGAIN FOR FARMERS.
The New-York Tribune Farmer, na-
tional illustrated agricultural weekly
of twenty large pages, has no superior
as a thoroughly practical and helpful
publication for the farmer and every

tion unequalled by any paper of its

to-date farmer always reads his own
local weekly newspaper, The New-
York Tribune Farmer has made an ex-
ceedingly liberal arrangement which
enables us to offer the two papers at so
low a price that no farmer can afford
to lose the opportunity.
The price of The New-York Tribune
Farmer is $1.00 a year and THE SoMER-
sET COUNTY STAR is $1.50 a year, but
both papers will be sent for a full year
if you forward $1.60 to Tar Sra, Elk
Lick, Pa.
Send your name and address to The
New-York Tribune Farmer, New York
City, and a specimen copy of that paper
will be mailed to you. tf

MIST SAVE CONGRESS
Re-Election of Speaker Cannon May
Depend On Pennsylvania Districts.
DEMOCRATS ON STILL HUNT
Chairman and Secretary
Andrews Sound Warnings to Repub-
Hcans to B= Active.
[Special Correspondence.)
Philadelphia, Nov. 1.
Pennsylvania Republicans are relied
gpon to Insure the reelection of
“Uncle Joe” Cannon to the speaker-
ship of the next house.
Senator Boies Penrose, in discuss-
ing the political outlook in this state
today, said: “We are bending all our
energies toward the election of Re-
publicans to congress. There are sev-
eral debatable districts in this state
which we must carry without fail, and
we are doing our utmost to see to it
that the Republican voters fully ap-
preciate the importance of getting ev-
ery vote to the polls that it is possible
to get out on election day.
“Those who are not familiar with
the situation may not realize the dan-
ger with which the Republican party
is confronted in this campaign. A
gain of 16 congressmen in the 45 states
of the Union would give the next
house of representatives over to the
Democracy. Those who have had ex-
perience in the quick and unexpected
changes that come in American poli-
tics can appreciate the concern which
the national leaders have over the
election of congressmen this fall. It
is known that the Democrats have a
very large campaign fund, and that
the Republicans have been handi-
capped for funds because of the fact
that many Republicans think that
there is no danger of our losing the
next house.
“Those who have studied the situa-
tion know that a change of one vote
in the Pennsylvania delegation might
throw the house to the Democrats, and
we therefore do not propose to leave
anything undone to insure the elec-
tion of every Republican candidate in
the closely contested districts.”
Colonel Wesley R. Andrews, secre-
tary of the Republican state commit-
tee, who has looked after the corre-
spondence with the members of the
committees throughout the state as
usual, and who for 10 years has been
actively identified with the work of
the Republican" state headquarters,
said this morning:
“I am satisfied from the answers re-
ceived from thousands of the commit-
teemen throughout the state that they
are not going to take anything for
granted at the election on Tuesday
next. There is a spirit of determina-
tion to win shown in all of these let-
ters which is indeed most gratifying.
The committeemen seem to realize
that much depends upon their work
between this and election day, and I
look for the most aggressive and per-
sistent campaigning during the re-
maining days of the contest that we
have had in Pennsylvania for many
a year.
“In some of the districts the Demo-
crats have been freely supplied with
cash from the Democratic national
committee and from other sources,
and they are working secretly in the
hope of catching our Republican work-
ers off their guard. This information
has come to us from several sources.
including the secret avenues of infor-
mation of the Republican national
committee. Senator Penrose has kept
im touch with Chairman Cortelyou
throughout the campaign, and has
made weekly visits to New York, and
I suppose he is as well posted about
what is going on in the national cam-
paign as any other member of the
national committee. He is in a posi-
tion to learn much of what is going on
among the Democrats, and has got in-
formation regarding several of the
congressional districts in this state
which has enabled us to warn our
committeemen to beware of a still
hunt effort of the Democratic workers
to get their vote to the polls without
appearing to be doing much in that
direction.
“We want to make Pennsylvania the
banner Republican state in the union,”
econtiued Secretary Andrews, “and we
cannot do this without the hearty co-
operation of every man actively identi-
fied with the Republican organization.
“We want to continue to have the
largest Republican delegation on the
floor of the house in Washington, but
we cannot have this without the most
effective work of the rank and fille of
the organization in every election pre-
cinct, so that the Democrats will be
thwarted in their underground tactics
to capture what should naturally be
Republican districts. The Democrats
are claiming the election of seven con-
gressmen from Pennsylvania. If every
Republican in Pennsylavnaia does his
duty on Tuesday next the Democrats
will not get over one congressman
from the Keystone state.
“The election of members of the leg-
islature is quite as important as the
election of congressmen, for the next
legislature will be called upon to elect
a United States seneator who shall
hold office for six years. No one can
tell what changes may take place in
national politics in that time, so
that it is essential that Republicans
not only vote for the presidential elect-
ors and candidates for congress, but
also for the nominees for the legislature.
“The safest thing for any Republi-
can to do is to place a cross mark in
the square to the right of the word,
‘Republican,’ in the first column of
Penrose
the ballot, and that will insure his vote |
for all of the Republican nominszes—
national, state and local.”
