ITES ARE UNITED AGAINST THE PROGRESSIVES.
LOS ANGELES, Oct. 8 The hope
of certain Taftites and Wilsonites that
v,;o,?AF vntoa ti,ov rnn
carry California against Roosevelt is
utterly without foundation- Efforts
have been made heretofore in this
slate to defeat a righteous cause by
combining against it the worst in two
parties, but it has resulted in the hu
miliation of those who attempted it.
California voters men and women
have principles which cannot be bar
tered in the interest of politicians.
Even Roosevelt could not carry Cali
fornia if he would on the free trade
platform of the Democratic party. , A
measure of protection in this state is
absolutely necessary to the perpetuity
of some of our leading industries, and
the success of Professor Wilson would
mean the removal of tariff duties.
Roosevelt declares: "I favor a pro
tective tariff." The Wilson platform
declares protection is "a. malignant
growth." j

WISCONSINS'
Governor McGovern of Wisconsin, though not in accord with the third par
ty movement and with a purpose to support the republican state, congression
al, 'legislative and county tickets, has declared his intention to vote for Roose
velt and Johnson.
Governor McGovern has given a reason for the faith that is in him. He is
a progressive Republican, was a supporter of La Follette for the Republican
nomination for the presidency throughout the pre-convention campaign and
throughout the national convention. He was the cadidate against Mr. Root for
the temporary chairmanship and was as thoroughly familiar as any other man,
with the methods by which the regulars secured control of the convention.
The declaration of Governor McGovern In favor of Roosevelt and Johnson
is in the form of a statement issued Ijy him, as the, head of the state ticket,
to the people of Wisconsin to whom he owed it to define his attitude on nation
al issues. One must now choose between so-called republicanism and progres
sive republicanism.
As a progressive republican, Governor McGovern found himself opposed to
almost everything represented in the national ticket. He could not, therefore,
conscientiously support it Either as a progressive or a republican he felt
himself absolved from allegiance to it for the following reason: "As a re

DETERMINED
WILL OF PEOPLE
fessor Wilson and the Democratic
' platform would be a ludicrous union
I were it not a menace to the prosperity
of the state. It could mean only one
thirfg, namely, that Taft politicians
are determined to thwart the will of
the people at any cost
But happily the people understand
the situation and are preparing to deal
the political gangsters who aided in
stealing two delegates at Chicago such
a blow as they have not yet received
one that will again show California's
lead in progressive principles.
"I understand there will be no Taft
ticket in California," said Governor
Johnson on hearing of the state su
preme court decision to place Roose
velt electors on the ballot "This mat
ters little, because the- few adherents
of Taft there, in the main, have al
ready announced their Intention of
supporting the Democraitc nominee."
And then the governor added, sen
tentiously, "It's the field against Col.
Theodore Roosevelt. The field will be
overwhelmingly defeated!"

al C. W. Harris, Ernest Douglas, a lo
cal newsaper man and the driver,
Harry Shea, he mired down deep in
the mud four miles from Roosevelt
on the road from Globe. It was rain
ing at the time, raining pretty heav
ily, but in spite of it Governor Hunt,
as he has done before on more than
one occasion, got out in the mud and
helped push the car out onto the hard
ground whence the trip could be made
back to Roosevelt to remain until
such time as the weather could' clear
up.

FLAYS GOV. WILSON
NEW YORK, Oct 7 Governor H.
VV. Johnson, of California, invaded
Long Island in behalf of the Progres
sive party today and proclaimed his
intention in his future 'addresses dur
ing the campaign to discuss Wilson's
attitude toward the trade unionists.
He asserted he would seek to show
that the Democratic presidential can
didates was formerly hostile to union
labor. In pursuance of his plan, John
jon dealt tonight with a letter Wilson
wrote to. President Joline of the Mis
jouri, Kansas & Texas railroad in
1907. The letter contained acknowH
adgement Of the copy of an address
foline made dn which he attacked the
labor unions.
"Political demagogues," Mr. Wilson
wrote, regarding the speech, "I read It
with relish and entire agreement."
ifter reading the letter, Johnson re
ferred to a speech made by Wilson in
1909, when he was quoted as saying
'.hat certain labor union tendencies
were "economically disastrous," and
then said, "We have therefore the
attitude of Wilson in hostility to laupr
mions .in 1909 and the fact that 'with
relish and entire agreement,' he read
an address concerning 'the cruel, un
thinking, hammer of labor unions' In
1907. The period of 1907, 1908 and
1909 is now before us during which, if,
we may judge from Wilson's utter
nces, there can be no doubt of his
hostility toward organized labor."

TO GET RICH,"
m IHUMAd i ha
A news item stated recently that
the officials of a Western railway had
sent a letter to each of its employes,
asking him to incorporate himself at
a. nnnital eauivalent to his earnine
capacity.
A man earning ?500 per year is
worth to himself, his family and em-
ployer about $10,000 on a 5 per cent
basis
Cnmnnre n man nanitalised at S10.-
000' with a business building worth
the same amount. The building is
worth less every day of its existence,
and so much is Written off its value
at the end of the year for depreciation.
In a -few years it must come down
aiid give place to a new structure.
Now take the man who Is worth
$10,000 asia worker, receiving 5 per
cent of the amount annually (or ?500)
in wages. Instead of being worth less
every year he can, if he wishes it, be
worth more. He can last longer than
a $10,000 building. He does not need
to depreciate in vame.
He can get to work with his head
and his hands and so improve himself
that his wages begin to rise. When
he has made himself, worth $1000 a
year his capitalization has mounted to
$u,uuu. And he does not need to stop
at this point if he desires to keep on J
The world, says a philosopher, "be-
longs to the energetic." No man has
truly solved the problem of building
a fortune who merely puts money In
the bank. He must keep on getting
more out of himself; more thought
more plans, more work, more desire,
more ambition.
Don't Dream; Work and Think
When we read that a savings bank
deposit of seventeen cents a day will
amount to one thousand, eight nun
dred and thirty-two dollars and eighty
four cents in twenty years, at 4 per
cent compound interest, we feel con-,
vinced that it is easy to get money
together, But it is a better form of
fortune building to try to increase
one's self at the same rate.
This cannot be done by building
air castles. Wishing is the dream
of the idle. Working and thinking
are the power of the industrious.
The only wayv to increase your cap-
italized value is by thinking about it.
You must contract the study habit,
Study your chances and improve all
of them.
Every hour you loaf, when you do
not need to, is so much less mental
and financial fortune.
The greatest tragedy of the day
day is not the bad man or the bad
woman. They have always been, and
probably always will be. It is the
half-trained men and women; the per-1
sons who can do nothing well enough
to make the work a valuable service. I
Butjthe moment one can do any-
thing- up to the top notch then the

are willing to pay for it.
