REPUBLICAN CALL TO ACTION
Special Attention Must Be Given to
the Canvass For the Nominees For
the National House and For Other
Candidates On the Ticket, Along
With Electors For Taft and Sher
man.
[ Special Correspondence.]
Philadelphia, Sept. 22.
Pennsylvania Republicans have been
called upon by the national leaders
of the party to put forth most streru
ous efforts to carry every close coii-
gressional district at the coming eléc-
tion.
The Democrats are making a great
canvass to carry the next house, ar.
it behooves Republicans everywhere,
according to reports received .at the
national committee headquarters in
New York, to get to work to line up
their voters for the party’s nominecs
for national representatives.
No one doubts that Pennsylvania
will roll up a big majority for Taft
and Sherman, but unless there sha.l
be close attention paid to perfecting
the party organization and enlistinz
the rank and file of the voters for the
congressional candidates in several of
the districts there may be a falling off
fn the Republican representation from
this state at Washington.
Pennsylvania has too much at stake
to allow this to happen.
Her vast industrial and farming in-
terests, which have thriven so well
under Republican rule, must be pro
tected, and there is no better way to
insure a continuance of the Republi
can party’s fostering policy than ‘to
elect Republicans to congress.
A Power In Congress.
Pennsylvania, with the largest Re-
publican delegation of any state in the
Union on the floor of congress, has for
many years wielded a potential infi.i-
ence in shaping national legislation
and in blocking the games of’, men
who have nothing in common wih
the wage earners, the farm owners,
the manufacturers and business men
of the Keystone state.
Men who seek to promote the causc
of the importers and others concernel
in getting into this country at as chen;
a rate as possible the products of for
eign nations, of their mills, their fac-
tories and their farms, are heavy con-
tributors to the Democratic campaizn
funds, especially to "the treasury oi
the Democratic congressional cm
paign committee.
They want to break down the toriff
to wipe out the “Pennsylvania id a”
of protection te ‘American industries
and American granger interests, =o
that they can reap the benefit of tro
mendously increased importations 1
foreign goods and foreign products o
all sorts, through their foreign bus
ness connections.
What Democratic Victery Wouid Mzan
Bryanism in the White House, io i
evervwhe.e admitted, would ‘be bo
enough, but with foreigners domi"
ing the action of congres”, esp acig
in the matter of tariff, F-nnsy.va..
interests would be terribly je pa:
dized and many of them, in time. =
solutely destroyed.
While business generally throuz
out the United States is picking up
mills are resuming operations, t:
railroads are reporting greatly in
&
tariff, which has been in existence for
ten years, a period longer than has
marked the existence of any* previcus
| tariff law, is to be revised, it woul i
seem evident that such revision shou d
be made by the party which has coa-
sistently favored the protective princi-
ple. The revision should be made as
promptly as possible and with as lit-
tle disturbance to business conditions
as possible.
“Already committees of the house
and senate are at work on the subject
and it is hoped that the revision is
being largely discounted in manufact-
uring and business circles. On the
other hand, a revision by the Demo-
cratic party must inevitably mean rev-
olution and disaster. The Democratic
platform declares in favor of immo2-
diate revision, of the tariff by the r=-
duction of import duties and generally
states that gradual reductions shoul!
be made in such schedules as may b>
necessary to restore the tariff to a
revenue basis. This practically
amounts to a declaration in favor of
free trade. .
“On the other hand the Republicen
party declares unequivocally for a re-
vision of the tariff by a special session
of congress immediately following the
inauguration of the next president and
affirms emphatically that in all tariff
legislation the true principle of pro-
tection is best maintained by the im-
position of such duties as will equal
the difference between the cost of pro-
duction at home and abroad, together
with a reasonable profit to American
industries.
«The Democratic party utterly ig-
nores any reference to the welfare of
American labor, while the Republicen
party in its platform specifically d=-
clares that its aim and purpose is not
only to preserve security against for-
eign competition, to which American
manufacturers, farmers and producers
are entitled, but also to maintain thé
high standard of living of the waco
earners of this country, who are the
most direct beneficiaries of the pro-
tective system.”

Penrose On This Issue.
Senator Penrose, in discussing th
political situation a few days age.
among other things said:
«A protective tariff is essential {

party has always been pledged to th
| principle. The Democratic party has |
| almost invz )ly leaned towards
trade. Ps » and financial

Congressman Nicholas Longworth
Senator Boies Penrcse and John Hc
Hammond were among others who a
dressed the great assemblage in ti
armory.
This meeting, the splendid atten:
ance at the convention and the demaG.
stration made by the mine work"
and others in the parade which wa
given prior to the opening of t.
meeting, left no room to doubt the eu
thusiasm for Taft and Sherman amon
the Republicans of this state.

development of industry or the im-[
provement of comp€rce, it has taken
the lead and maintained the ascend- |
ency. It has been opposed and ob- |
structed by tie Democratic party, and
its achievements o always been in
spite of the assa...s and obstructive
tactics of the Democratic party. Only
once in the past fifty years have the
people voted for a change from Re-
publican to Democratic rule. They
were misled by the arguments of the
supporters of Grover Cleveland into
believing that tariff revision whica
would lead ‘to ultimate free trade
would be better for the common peo-
ple than the Republican system of pro-
tection to American industry. :
A Painful Experience.
“The experience was a wretched and
painful one, as the records of the sec-
ond Cleveland administration cleariy
demonstrate. From the Cleveland ad-
ministration to the present ime Re-
publican presidents and Republican
policies have been sustained. Under
Republicanism thus restored to power.
the country has experienced its great-
est progress. It has seen the free sil-
ver heresy come and go. It has ob-
served the cry of anti-imperialism and
of government ownership of railroads.
These theories were advanced as th-
entering wedge for the overthrow of
Republican success, but they hav:
been met and countered in each suc-
ceeding national election. We are now
approaching an election where new
theories are to be met.
|
Democratic Experiments.
“One of those is the proposition to
fmpose upon the government of the
United States the business of an in-
surance company for the protection of
deposits in national banks to the pre-
judice of the larger deposits of the
farmers and thrifty industrialists of
the country who have placed their
faith in state banks and savings
funds. We are opposed to the introduc-
tion of this theory as an experiment
in our national life, believing that it is
not a government function to protect
the money of the schemer and specu
lator, while the savings of the hones
toiler are to be prejudiced and enda:-
gered.
“with this new theory advanced as
another expedient by the candidate of
the Democratic party, this convention
has no other concern than to point
out its fallacy and the danger tha
would follow its attempted introduc
tion. We stamp this “new thought” ol
the versatile dreamer of Democracy
as an insidious and dangerous bit of
demagofuery, no more entitled to the
respect of the people than was his
proposition to sell fifty cents worth of
silver bullion to the government of the
United States for a good gold dollar.
Warning to Republicans.
«We warn Republicans upon th"
farm: in the factory; in the mine; ani
in business circles generally, agains
the experiments that are being pro-
posed by our Democratic opponents;
each and every one of them is simply
intended to confuse the political sit-
uation and to undermine the founda-
tions upon which the prosperity of
the country has been reared, in order
to discredit the Republican party ana
to place the Democrats in power. We
believe as firmly today in the protec,
tive tariff of the Republican party as
we ever did.
“We believe the time -has ,com~
when the tariff law may be revised b=”
its friends in order to regulate such
inequalities as may have arisen or to
correct such abuses as may have crept
in, but we do not waive our devotion
to the protective principle, nor do w:
yield in the slightest measure our de
mand that American industry shall be
a safeguard against unfair foreign
competition.
«Wwe believe the tariff should be
adjusted, so maintained, that every
imported article that comes into com-
petition with domestic manufacture.
shall be made to pay duty represent
ing the difference in cost between the
wages paid abroad and the wages paid
at home, with a reasonable profit to
the manufacturer. Our industries have
grown and prospered under this sys-
tem, and we claim for the Republican
party the credit of having made it
what it is. .
The Two Senators.
«Our distinguished senators, the Hon.
Boise Penrdse and the Hon. Philande:
C. Knox, are to be congratulated upo.
the records they have made at Wash
ington. The long service of Senato:
Penrose upon the important commit:
tee of postoffices and postroads, dur
ing which time he has seen the growli
of the postal business of the country
from eighty millions per annum £1
two hundred and twenty millions pz:
annum, and during which he has c
tributed largely in the developing of
the free rural delivery service of the
country, is especially noteworthy.

adopted, which among other things
says:

matism! Nota remedy that will straighten the
distorted limbs of chronic cripples, nor turn bony
growths back to flesh again. That is impossible.
But I can now surely kill
this deplorable disease.
In Germany—with a Chemist in the City of
Darmstadt—I found the last ingredient with
which Dr. Shoop’s Rheumatic Remedy was made
a perfected, dependable prescription. Without
that last ingredient, I successfully many,
many cases of Rheumatism; butnow, atlast, ituni.

wastes, found in Rheumatic Blood, seem to dissolve
and pass away under the action of this remedy 88

And then, when disselved, these poisonous ‘wastes
freely pass from the system, and the cause of
Rheumatism is gone forever. There is now no.
