From National Democrat-
ic Committee
By Clyde B Taverner
Ghlcago 111 Oct— Indications
are that Democratic candidates
In all parta of the United States
will this year aweapin a very
large Republican vote
Within the laat aix months the
writer haa traveled from Maine
to California and back again in-
terviewing acores of Republicans
in all aections There is a dis-
satisfaction in Republican ranks
that haa not been ao acute in
many years
The people blame the Republi-
can party principally for two
things l For permitting Joe
eph 6 Cannon to be speaker of
the House and for allowing Nel
son W Aldrioh to dominate the
Senate 2 For Increasing' the
tariff for which there is no need
That Democratic candidates
will profit from a great silent vote
is evident A reversal from
one end of the country to the
other such as occurred in Maine
Massachusetts New Hampshire
New York and Missonri should
cause no surprise to the Republi-
cans Everywhere the signs of
the times are ominous for the G
O P And everywhere the Dem-
ocrats are encouraged and pro
gressive and in most sections
the Democrats are working in
perfect harmony
A prominent retail merchant
of Rock Island 111 expressed
the view of a large element of the
Republican party in these words:
"Although I am a Republican
I am going to vote the Democrat-
ic ticket I am going to do it for
the good of the dry goods busi-
ness and the good of the people
who buy dry goods We are get-
ting tired of having to meet a
woman in our store with the
statement that the price of staple
cottons has again gone up 2 cents
a yard
"Men who deal in dry goods
groceries hardware etc re-
gardless of whether they are Re-
publicans or Democrats know
well enough despite all argu-
ments to the contrary that the
increased prices are due to tire
tariff If tills is not true how
does it come that an advance in
the cost of living has accompan-
ied every upward tariff revision
in the history of the country
"The increased tariff for which
there was no need and which
was passed by a Republican
President Republican Senate
and Republican House has in-
creased prices and every man
who voted for that bill ought to
be defeated And most of them
will"
TARIFF IS FAU REACHING
If the tariff is the cause of in-
creased prices" asks the Repub-
lican stump speaker "how does
it come that the price has advan-
ced on things on which the tariff
was not touched?”
U S Senator Moses E Clapp
of Minnesota than whom there
is no truer progressive Republi-
can answers the question Here
is his answer:
“The effect of excessive tariff
on some things reaches all along
the line You can’t raise the
cost of living to a man who is
producing something to sell with-
out forcing that man to raise
correspondingly the price of
what he has to sell? Think it
over!

Nn&ih-fs From Drin Coi-g
Press iiiiroau
A vote for Jim Davenport for
congress is a vote against the in-
terests and a vote for the con-
sumer the laboring man and the
farmer who are you lor?
Charles Evasive Creager rep-
resented tlio iute rests in Cun
gress Did not he vote a tariff
for the wool trusts the glass
trusts tire paper trusts the
hide trusts and all of the other
trusts great and small? How
much of these trusts do you
own Mr Voter?
Congress created a tariff com
mission Champ Clark sniff the
item in the bill voting $250000
for the commission should be en-
titled "A motion to postpone n
verdict of the people on the
I'ayne-Aldrlch-Smoot tariff bill
to a more convenient senson—
more convenient to the stand-put
leaders It is another effort ii
desperate effort to hoodwink the
voters of the land"
Congressman Eugene Foos n
Massachusetts manufacturer
said upon the iloor of congress
May 21 that the "Payne-Aldrlch
revision of the tariff was ude-
Iberate bunco game from start
to finish" When a New England
manufacturer admits as much
it la high time for Oklahoma to
repudiate the congressmen who
aaaiated la working this bunco
game upon their conatituenta

Oklahoma City Nov 1st— In
behalf of the proposition submit-
ted by the laat legislature to sob-
atitnte another Section 0 Article
9rfor the present section of that
number in the state constitution
the Chamber of Commerce of
this city baa sent ont the follow
ing appeal to voters
'o the Voters of Oklahoma:
The laat regular session of the
state legislature with practical
unanimity submitted to be voted
upon at the forthcoming general
election a proposition to adopt a
new Section 9 Article 9 of the
state constitntion This was
done in the belief that the pres
ent section is an unnecessary
ban on new railroad building in
the state a view supported by
every man of affairs who has
made an Investigation of the sub-
ject Many such men opposed
the amendment submitted by
petition last June believing it
was too favorable to the railroads
but favor the one submitted by
the legislature to be voted upon
November 8th
This proposition not only had
the support of the best thought
of the legislature after the mat
ter had been presented but of
Governor Haskell who in a let
ter to the people published June
1st of this year used the follow-
ing language:
"I believe that section 9 ar-
ticle 9 of the Constitution can
safely be repealed -:--:-There is
already pending a provision sub-
mitted by our legislature to be
voted upon at the general election
next November-: -: and this pro-
vision if adopted at the Novem-
ber election could be vitalized by
the legislature in regular session
next winter and in my opinion
would substantially remove what
is contended now embarasses the
promotion of interstate railroads
This questton will be upon the
ballots at the November election
and with the proper considera-
tion I have no doubt it can be
adopted”
This language was used by the
governor in advising against the
amendment voted upon last June
and favoring the one to be voted
upon in November v
The corporation commission is
also recorded as favoring the
proposition submitted to the No-
vember election When bitterly
opposing the Carter amendment
last Spring contending that it
would curtail powers of the com-
mission Jack Love Chairman of
the commission said in a public
letter published May 15:
"The man who honestly wants
to repeal Article 9 Section 9 and
not turn the state and its re-
sources over to the railroads
will vote in favor of the amend-
ment to be voted on in November
-:-The man who wants to re-
move this ban and stop there
will vote for this registrative
amendment in the' November
election”
We call attention to these to
show that objections against the
amendment voted upon last June
do not lie against the present
proposition and to show that
the legislature the governor and
the corporation commission as
well as men of affairs all over the
state who are familiar with tin-
subject are agreed that it
should bo adopted
While perhaps some railrord
men oppose it on the ground that
it leaves the state in control
through courts we believe that
the people of the state are satis
tied with the proposition submit-
ted by the legislature and we
urge every citizen to cast liis
vote in favor of the amendment
on Novembsr 8th All industri-
al and commercial organizations
especially should see to it that
the amendment is carried for iu
our opinion no more important
matter concerning future devel-
opments ef the state emi -er
coine before the people for a do-
cision The chilly nights when you
pull up your old cotton blanket
think about how you used to af-
ford a heavy wool blanket Thank

urn taxed ISO per cent That is
a blanket costing $2 HO only rr-p
resents $100 actnul value Ask
Mr Creager to explain this-
Are you a progressiva or
regular? Do you put your eggs
