One vear $3 oo Six months Single copies .The dasdardly attempt to as?asinate America's most notable and foremost citizen, Theodore Roosevelt, apalls the nation, and hpr citizenship arises as one demanding that short work be made of the maniac who would thus ruthlessly slay with an assassins bullet. Isn't it odd that the identical sewing "machines which cost hardworkin" women 25 in this country J should be sold in Mexico for $iolss? Perhaps if the tariH were taken off, American Women might fare as well as Mexican women at the hands of the Sewing Macnine Trust. It's worth trying anyhow, dont you think? One of a thousand reasons why Wilson should be elected. The Democratic House of Representative made a good start in pulling down the tariff wall by cutting in twain the wool and cotton schedules md putting some of the more com mon necessities ot life on the free list. This poli:y, which was vetoed by President Taft. needs to be carried out and extended. The multitudes that turning ont to hear Wodrow Wilson in the delivery of his campaign speeches reflect the interest among the masses in the campaign and the determinati m of the people to vote the Democratic ticket straight this year. Nueva Era, published in Moxico city and generally cred ited with the distinction of being the personal organ of Presi dent Madero, is authority for the statement that the Ameri can government is preparing to abandon its damage claims againt the Mexican government, and proceeds to treat the situation in such a manner as is calculated to give rise to the suspicion thattue Mexican government is preparing to repud iate these claims. As Gov. Marshall nut it. hundred and fifty thousand dollars was a mere begaelle and "That man" earned a bicreer contribution when, later oa he gave Morgan and Perkins a "permit" togobhle up the Teone see Coal and Iron Co. President Taft put hides on the free list but kett ths tarifl on the wool- For that they'll presently hang his political hide on the fence and throw stones at it. When a president goes a-wool gathering, something s bound to happen to him Gov. Wilson has stamped moving pictures illuscrative of Dem Kratic doctrine and within the next few days and until the end of the campaign the pic tures will be shown in 10,000 country Hundreds of films are hibitors. The Democrat observes: day politicians are. compared barrel in 1904. "It is my advice." said Judge Barefoot, "that bef re a girl marries a man to reform him from drink and gambling she should take in aweek's washing and see how she likes it." A window decorator has obtained a patent upon a pro cess for draping figure so as to clothes without cutting the material. In Voodrow Wilson the for the presidency whom it presents to the country in full assurance that he is. in a peculiar manner, the choice not only of the voters of the party, but also ol thousands who have here tofore voted another ticket Mr Wilson's nomination was the result of a popular demand such as never be'ore swept a na tional convention a demand sponstaneous and country wide, which it was impossible to resist. An Englishman has developed, a stingless honeybee that is a better worker than the bee that stings. Hurry with the kickless mule. . . Now, boys, go to the blackboard and see if you can solve this problem. If the International Harvester Company earns only one hundreth of 1 per cent, in one year how ' jreorge Perkins afford the Bull Moose campaign the next year? With i8cent copper and assurance from those who know that prices not will relax, an impetus to the paramount industry of Cochise county and Arizon tkes an upward tendency Cochise is in the lead; Arizona will continue to be in the fore, rank "I am going to do all-in my power to bring around the election ol Governor -Wi's'jn. I know of no onjj better equip ped to grace the White House than Governor Wilson. His views on the tairff art appealing to the substantial and sens ible business men of the country. I think he is goinr to re ., ceive the greatest number ol Republican votes ever given to a Uemoca'ic candidate lor omen. He is not only going to draw from Roosevelt's following (and this may sound like a , remarkable statement but I believe it is true,) but he is also ' going' to decrease the ranks of the old-line .Republicans until they will present on election-day a mighty weak and .battered. JESSH R. GRANT, -Son of U. S. Grant Forty women have taken licenses to shoot deer in Colo . ,rado. If women shoot as they throw this will be a good time for the Colorado guides to hurry across the borders. In a word, the people have found Governor Wilson the sort of man they want in the vVhite House. They will put him there.

In other words, governmental ex penses for the FOUR YEARS of Presi dent Cleveland's administration (Dem ocratic) were only 1830.861,551.92 more than President Taft's (Republican) es timate of the amount necessary to cov er the expenses of ONE TEAR of President Taft's administration. Congressman John J. Fitzgerald of New York, a Democrat and chairman of tbe committee on appropriations, lc addressing the house Aug. 26. 1912, on the subject of appropriations said, "Thoughtful men have watched with alarm the rapid Increase In the cost of government In the United States." He further said that two causes seem re sponsible for many present evils: "One. the UNFAIR AND UNJUST SYSTEM OF TAXATION by which an undue share of Income by those whose circumstances in life are not considered more than reasonably com. 1 fortable Is taken through our customs laws for the support ot our govern ment; the other, the difficulty or Inabil ity to readjust our system of taxation and to remove many taxes from tbe necessaries of life, so long as the GOV ERNMENT IS EXTRAVAGANTLY CONDUCTED, or the Instrumentali ties provided for the conduct of the public service are either Inefficient or are not utilized so as to render the most effective and comprehensive re sults." Mr. Fitzgerald then called attention to tbe fact that the Democratic party pledged Itself It Intrusted with power to do two things REDUCE TARIFF DUTIES AND RETRENCH PUB- "C EXPENDITURES by eliminating I waste In administration and the aboil- !.., ., I tlon of useless, inexcusable offices. 1 , q RpDnhlIeans talk about tariff reyi8ion, and yet when a Democratic J house In fulfilling Democratic promises to the people reduced the tariff, a Re publican president vetoed the measure. "By their works shall ye know them." Democrats In every state of the Union should organize and prepare for polling a record breaking vote Nor. B. Be It remembered that no matter 'how certain victory seems, overconfl dence is always dangerous.
