P0K PRESIDENT, WILLIAM HOWAKD..TAFT. TOR VICE PRESIDENT, JAMES 8. SHERMAN, FOR CONGRESS, HON. HARRY UAILEY. Tho firat declnrntion in tho Democratic plat form is an assault ou a Protective Tariff. The Republican platform is outspoken for 6uch a Tariff. Hero is one issue squarely joined, and history proves tho streugth of tho Repub lican position. Speaking of Wilson and the Tariff, if mem ory serves us right, we had a three years' experience with another Wilson measure from 1893 to 189G. t Under tho Wilson bill of Cleveland's admin istration there was no Tariff on wool and 50 per cent, on goods, and the most flourishing industry was tho souphouses. THE BLIGHT OF DEMOCRACY. . The sheriff was tho busiest man in Highland county. The facts from his records are appal ' .ling. From 1893 to 1897 he sold two hun dred and twenty-four farms and homes, served five hundred and thirty-one executions; and , closed the following laigo industries: Tho Ohio Chair Co.; The Hillsboro 4 Manufacturing Co.; The Hillsboro Gas Co.; The Hillsboro Woolen Mills; The Citizeus National bank; and tho First National Bauk. A bankrupt community .is a bad market. If you were asked to do something that might possibly reduce the value of your laud and your product from one-half to threo-fourths .would you take that risk? - With tariff for revenuo prices for your land and youi product can you beat the sheriff to your mortgage? What Highland countian will take a chance on a return to such conditions? A vote for William II. Taft insures a con tinuation of present conditions. Tho above editorial appeared in tho Hillsboro Ohio, Dis patch, Friday, October, 1912. " THE ISSUE AND THE HANDWRITING. Issues' are not determined by men, but by events. When a real issuo impends tho most adroit of campaign managers can no ' more create an issue than ho can evade one. It is not a matter of political general selecting tho issues upon which a campaign shall bo fought; campaigns have a habit of developing issues that ovorshadow the original ouo and convert it into a mere perliminary skirmish. For months the political outposts have been skirmishing; thoro has been a rattling number of outpost flghls, but tho real battle field was not-determined until within tho past fortnight, , for tho real issuo had not developed. But today tho real battlo field is revealed, tho real issue his come to tho fron' ; tho pre, liminary engagement? of the past month ,ba? fit dwarfed iato. outpo3t .affaire! Agtia-w-lmvi learned tuat it in nut for gonoials to dotormiuo battlefields, that it is not for candidates to determine the issues that aro before tho peo ple Tho campaign has pro resscd to tho point whero it is apparent that tho split in tho Re publican forces mfiaus tho election of a free trade administration, a free trade congress and tho men of America all too well know that that means -industrial depression, panic, loss of employment and hard times. Tho Re publican party has upheld those principles and policies which have made tho nation prosper ous to divide tho Republican forces upon tho election day will not result iu tho election of a man supporting these .principles and policies, bnt iu the election of the man and men who will drag them down and destroy them. Colonel Roosevelt's ouargo has been bril liant, it has been sensational, it has been char acteristic, but it is now apparent that it can have but one roault the defeat of the very principles and policies. which he is seeking to maintain. Backed by the vote of tho "Solid South," faced by divided Republican forces in great industrial and agricultural states, a man needs neither to be a prophet nor the son of a prophet to appreciate the fact that a free trade, Democratic administration may be ushered in to power. It is a realization of this situation by the people ot the'great Northern and Eastern states which has made the real issue, which has de termined the real battle ground upon which the fight will be conducted during tho closing weeks of the campaign. Shall prosperity and piotection be kicked out? Shall froo trade and hard times be voted in? These then are the questions that tho voter must answor when ho goes to tho polling place in November. They may be entirely different from those which many of us thought would bo asked; they may be entirely different from those which the campaign managers had determined would be beat suited to their pur pose, but they aro the ones determined by events and therefore tho real ones. The piotective tariff is alone to be maintain ed by tho election of a Republican administra tion. This fact is apparout to any one who studies either tho politics or the past or the politics of today. To divide the forces bi-J Moving in protection, believing in an honest dollar, believing in (he upholding of the na tional honor and integrity, is to defeat theso very things by electing men who have always opposed and fought them. Commercial Tri bune. The United States is.tho greatest Free-Trade country on earth. Considerably more.thau half our imports come in free, and the Tariff is of much less per capita here than it is in Free Trade England THE TARIFF ISSUE. No argument is necessary to show the manu facturers of the country on which side of this question they should tako their stand. Any thing that hurts tho .country's manufacturing industries is bound to hurt the workingmun also, so that tho Tariff issuo will be brought home alike to capitalist and laborer. With Protection as the dominant issue the Republican party will win. Camden Post-Tolegram. I SHnsflSBScBa VkSfiflT WHEN THE MEN QO TO TOWN. In the News Atnnrlcan Magazine Edna.

P. J. MURPHY, The Jeweler Trained t Eyetf Great Help to be Able to See Things By F. E. O. CAKPENTIEU T ;IE world it littered with failure caiised by eyes that could not see opportunity at the door. The combination of the untrained eye and the untrained mind ia a handicap thai; ties the world to drudgery. It is the man whose eye eeet beneath the surface of things who wins success. Accurate observation is ono of the rarest arts in the -world. The un disciplined eye jumps to conclusions that havo no reality in fact. The mind is blinded and deceived by eyes that lie. It is a common occurrence in court to have two honet witnesses differ diametrically upon easentiul points of their testimony. Try to describe from memory your moat inti mate friend so that a stranger could pick him out of a crowd and you will discover how little you have been using your eyes. i It ia the man or woman who sees things overlooked by others, things to which others have been blind, who achieves success. It was because Watt could see an enormous power of tremendous potentiality in the uteam which lifted tho lid of tho bubbling tea kettle that wo have the steam engine of today, and yet steam had been making noisy tea kettles for thousands of years for unseeing eyes. And it is the same in all the great discoveries that have changed this world from savagery to civilization. It is the art of seeing with truincd eyes. The boy or girl who sets out deliberately to train eye and the regis tering mind to accurato observation lias taken the first great step in ml self-education. They are giving themsclvea the beat equipment for the battle of lifo and preparing themselves to welcome opportunity. It was a young man who had trained himself to see under the surface of things who made a fortune out of discarded tin cans in a western min ing camp. Tho cans littered the streets and alleys where they had been thrown by the hungry, careless miners. They wore kicked about and trod den upon by hundreds of money-mad men daily, but he one day noticed that one of the waste cans, partly submerged in the water that was pumped from the mines, collected & thin coat of copper. He saw that thousands of dollars', worth of copper in solution was going to waste iu the water that poured from the mines. He saw that the tin cans caught this fleeing cop per and precipitated it. In a few years lw was one of the nation's mining magnatea. Train the eye to see things as they are, to see things which the most of us are overlooking as commonplace. Naturo is still holding back many secrets the discovery of which may be as profound in- result upon civiliza tion aa the advent of steam or electricity, and they are secrets that will be yielded only to the trained eye and disciplined brain. Children Must Exercise Body and Mind ly WeMs JUtfr ewi, M. D., CMcho Two things are requisite for the healthy and happy growth and develop ment of the children a playground and a garden. Children need & place like an empty barn in which they can swing and amuse themselves in wet and wintry aa well as in hot sultry weather, indulging those gamee which are requisite for the schooling alike of their muscles and nerves. Fashion has exerted a baleful influence over the best feelings of tho mother, for she has become willing to sacrifice tho health and well-being of her children by unsightly exposure of the arms and legs, which is often attended by the moat serious, injury to the child. Merino undershirts should be worn by the girls in winter ather, woolen stockings and heavy shoea. Avoid guarding the neck and throat of boys and girls. By reason of the proximity of the neck to the seat of circulation this very quickly has the temperature unduly increased by an excess of covering, to relieve which the articles surrounding tho neck are often suddenly removed. Perspiration is then cheeked and throat diseases of course follow. As the child advances in ago his desire for employment and amuse ment will increase. Every proper opportunity, therefore, should be .given for the due exercise of both body and mind, but neither should be too fatigued. Care should be taken at this time to provide, such employment or amusement aa shall exercise the arms as well as -the legs, "playing ball, pitching horseehoet and tho like. After selecting proper games and cxer- .cises for children constant care should be taken that none are indulged in to excess. ' Every violent exertion it attended by a strain upon' tome one part or other of the body. In jumping from great heights, leaping over elevations, lifting great weights, in fact, in every exertion of this kind the boy risks producing a disability for lifo. It is by theso hazardous experiments, that ruptures are so frequently produced. On this account the exerciaat of a well regulated gymnasium become so valuable, aa the performance are grad uated, beginning with the meet easy and progressively arriving at the more difficult. Name of Much More Value Than Gol4 Br Am4k( Waalataa. Jf. ClaclMatl. Obla In our mad scramble after tho almighty dollar we forget that there ia something of far mora value than gold, something which some of our wealthiest and most influential men do not poeeees, something that the poorest man has a chance to have and some thing which very few men can rightly lay claim to. "What is that f you may ask. No need to hesitate before replying. It it a spotless reputation. A person with good brains can amass a fortune, a hypocrite con deceive persons into believing him a taint and a person with any sort of crit can gain tucces in a way, but it must be a person of tre mendous will power who can withstand temptations and elude the many , pitfalls that lure the unsuspecting down tne patn 01 aestrucuon. It is hard to keep in the straight road and lead a straight life In the f face of temptations, but no battlo can be won without fighting. Tho straight path Is not lined with beds of rosea.
