The Appeal

VOL. 20. NO. 41 ATTITUDE OF PARTIES POBITIONS OF REPUBLICANS AND DEMOCRATS. The Former Stand for Certain Fundamental Ideas, While the Latter Are Content to Oppose Everything Offered by Their Rivals. It is a common thing to hear it said that there is little difference in this campaign between the position of the Republican and the Democratic parties, and that some people do not much care which wins. Never was a more radical misleade make the stand of a wide grip between the stand of the two parties. Guilt? No; oceans separate the outposts of each from the other! The Republican party is planted solidly upon certain fundamental ideas, and the actual working out of those ideas forms the main rock of its support. It is a combination of men who believe in democracy. During the last half century the Republican party has held together the American Union and made it a nation. It has abolished slavery forever from our shores. It has, through the protective tariff and other measures, built up national unity in many recent years, caused the American nation to be respected throughout the world as a first-class power, dictating, to-day, a policy of justice and fair dealing in international affairs, in Europe, Asia and the islands of the seas. It has fostered a national effort putting the nation on a sound financial footing with the rest of the world. It stands, row, for human freedom, equal justice to all, equal opportunities to all, without regard to race, creed or color. It stands for prosperity at home and abroad, for national credit, for practical works of internal improvement. It has initiated the digging of the Panama Canal. It has begun the irrigation of the arid regions of the West. It has inaugurated an era of education of sanitary reform, of civil and religious education, of religious education in the Atlantic and Pacific. The Republican party is a party of work. It does things! It is alive, progressive, virile and practical. It is, in its very nature, constructive. It is a living growing force, because it has possessed the power of taking the initiative in all forms of activity. What About the Opposition? And what about the Democratic party, the party which some people are saying, is not far different, at present, from its rift. That has the Democratic party said or done during the last half century? It has simply laid its ears back and kicked! It has been the leaden lump to lift in all great enterprises undertaken by the country from 1860 on to the present moment of time. It opposed the strength. In 1864 its National Convention declared "THE WAR A FAILURE." It opposed, with heart and soul, the freeing of the slaves. The district in which slavery flourished is still Democratic—"Solid South." It opposed the protective tariff, and opposes it. It still has never repudiated or disowned its doctrines of 1869 and 1900. It held back the Panama Canal and would have defeated its beginning if it had been able to do so. It has dissuaded a practical and humane administration of affairs in the Philippines. It has, at all times, been wrong. With a century that is murvulous it takes the wrong side of every public question. And now, after the heat and burden of work borne by its opponent, this party of ignorance, laziness, procrastination and disaster asks to be given the reins of power. It is not the saddest saddening on the ground of perpetual fault-finding with things as they are and as they ought to be! How can any sane man say that the difference between the two great parties is not great? The work, the sorting of hard problems, the assisting of the heavily burdened, the holding of a great strong nation to its great purpose in the betering of mankind. The other means standing still, looking backward, and going backward, for man or nation standing still. There must be something in the air which dull perception when men can say that they find little difference this year between the two great political parties. Fatness and prosperity have caused us to use quick perseverance and judgment. They have be rude awakening for them if the Democrats should win the November elections. The chances are much aaint any such catastrophe for the sleepy president who "don't much cure." It is a serious problem, however, the fact of their existence. TARIFE AND MONEY. If One Standard Is Established, Why Not the Other? Why should not the protective tariff policy be as "firmly and irreovocably established" as the Democratic party and its candidate for the Presidency conceded? The gold standard was advocated by the Republican party, and on this issue the country won Republican by an overwhelming majority. The question of tariff or free trade, tariff reform and revision has been the issue in several states. The Senate has given by their votes decided finally that the protective tariff principle should prevail and that this country should be recognized as favoring and supporting protection and not free trade. The Democracy has given the opportunity of demonstrating the fallacy of its free trade or tariff for revenue-only policy, and the result was so distraught that the people gladly returned to protection of their property WITH EXPIRY TIME WITH FREE SILVER. The legislation by Congress fixing the gold standard WE HAVE SHOWN IN FACT THAT OUR POLICY IS TO DO THING FOR THE BEST OF NO HEED TO WHETHER A MAN IS RICH OR POOR, A MAN IS BORN OR ORGANIZED, BIRTH H P LACE — President Rooveelt. was in accordance with the demand of the people, as expressed by their votes. They, the people, have just as firmly expressed their preference for protection. Neither currency nor tariff legislation is so firmly enacted that the laws could not be changed by Congress if the people demand their revision, and the people demand that party is attempting to make the tariff an issue in this campaign is that they hope the people have forgotten their sad experience under the Wilson-Gorman Democratic tariff bill. After the votes are counted in November, the Democrats vote rule this country considers the protective policy as well as the gold standard firmly and irrevocably established as cardinal principles. THE SUPPLY OF MONEY Increase of $112,000,000 Since Jan. 1, and $110,000,000 a Month for eight Years. A national stock of money in the United States increased from $2,763,152 on January 1 of this year to $2,829,275,316 on September 1, or more than $86,000,000, and the money in actual currency increased from $2,763,152 to the beginning of this year, rose to $2,558,279,848 on September 1, an increase of nearly $112,000,000. On the latter date the per capita circulation had increased just one dollar since the first of This illustrates how the country is continually, and, according to the very latest figures, gathering increased benefits from Republican policies. It shows the folly of the free silver argument for which Porter and bovis have maintained that money supplies increase not as more money may be coined, but as credit, confidence and real wealth increase from wholesome policies that being wealth to the country and also being the best money of the world—gold—to the country to represent that wealth. The United States was the United States hindered from producing wealth, but the best money to represent wealth—gold—was driven out instead of being invited in, owing to the famous Gresham law that bad money drives good money. The deposits of the closing-house of New York City increased during the eight months ending August 31, $313,000,000 as one result of the plebtera of money, and money on call on laid as low as one-half of one per cent. A recent bulletin issued by the controller of the currency calls attention to the enormous increase of 105 per cent. in the deposits of the bank, the whole of the money supplied to the National bank notes outstanding have also been increasing continuously for more than a year, and especially since the first of January. On August 1, 1903, the outstanding national bank note circulation was $52,000,000. The bank issued a request for $425,163,000, and on September 1, $452,516,000. Since August, 1902, the national bank circulation has been higher than at any former period. Previous to that date the maximum point was $825,000,000. In August 1907, 1891 and 1891, National bank note circulation is approximately $300,000,000 greater than at the low period, and it is likely to increase further. The total deposits of Chicago banks on September 6 and 7 were the largest in their history. The Chicago bank held the largest bank's call for statement of condition on September 6, showed total deposits of $265,570,600, as against $255,482,820 on June 9 of this year and against $252,751,750 on December 10, 1901. Chicago State bank deposits on September 6 were $252,751,750, as against $252,751,750, June 10 of this year, and as against $269,704,827 on July 24, 1902. Heury G. Davis said in his speech accepting the Democratic nomination for Vice President: "The apprehension which now prevailed in business circles is the increase in the conditions of the country, seem to demand a political change." If there were such "apprehension" could deposits increase in this remarkable way? As a matter of fact, a coin that was once always quickly be followed by runs on banks and rapid shrinkage of deposits, and the very fact that deposits are now breaking all previous records proves the utter unrestraint of the Davies calamity argument. The total increase in our volume of money during the past eight years was $1,014,716,501; annual increase, $126,829; growth for each month during the last eight years, $10,569,130; an increase for each day during the last eight years. This statement shows that during the last eight years, over seven of which have been under Republican administration, the increase in the volume of the increase for each day under Republican administration or more than $10,000,000 for each month. Barker vs Cleveland Cleveland's second administration was disastrous to the prosperity of the country; nevertheless, history will give much credit to Cleveland because of his objection against the assaults of his own party in Congress, and because of his Venezuela message. But while Cleveland was doing his best to preserve the gold standard, Parker was voting for free silver. And when Cleveland wrote his Venezuelan message did he have the moral support of the candidate who in his recent speech of acceptance justified the Republican policy of justified the Republican policy of getting the nation in readiness for war? Had it not been for this very policy as pursued by preceding Republican administrations, President Cleveland's family message would have been an empty "buff." "There is, sir, in our past history no basis for the intimation that the party in power is predisposed to increase or in any manner unduly to extend the bonds of the party. In the distraction of that party we have witnessed the reduction of the interest-bearing public debt from $2,833,033,315 at the close of the civil war to $58,037,100 at the close of Harrisonburg, Va. The loss of the principal has gone a reduction of the interest upon what remained." -Senator Fairbanks in the Senate, March 5, 1900. West May Virginia may turn out to be the little joker of the campaign: Wait and the little, who plays her to win in November.

BRYAN—"So you are; I've just made your load a little lighter." ORDER NO. 78 Which Judge Parker, Will Not Have a Chance to Revoke. Nothing in the Democraticocrat uiver of wheaches against President Roosevelt has failed so utterly that arranging the proof of certain ages by old soldiers evidential facts of certain degrees of disability. If the order had been cunningly devised to betray the great constitutional lawyers of the Democracy into making the masses of themselves it could not have succeeded more completely and ludicrously. When the great "Parker Constitution Club" of New York, started in to arrain Theodore Roosevelt for going through the constitution as if it were paper houp in a circus, attacked the issuance of order No. 78 in these words: "We find that President Roosevelt deliberately disgruntled Article 1. Section 9 of the Constitution, providing new money for the war, the consequence of appropriations made by law. Now, what are the facts?" Order No. 78 assumes that an able soldier who is 62 years of age is probably able to earn only one-half of the support the statute provides in case of total disability, at which stage he is raised when he is 65 years old. The minimum sum of $6 per month as a pension; and it finds that at 65 he is two-thirds disabled and entitled to $8. There can be no serious objection to the principle of the order, which is based on the experience of mankind as a result of the experience of strength many men are able to "earn a support" at seventy at thirty, but the vast majority at sixty have passed the line where they are fully capable of doing so in "the performance of manual labor," and the evil days approach when "the grasshopper per shall be a burden and desire shall Order No. TS merely recognizes the course of nature, but it draws no money out of the treasury without authority or law. It was issued in April 13, 1904. Congress being in session it was reported to that body with its request that $15,000 be appropriated to carry it into effect. The sum was embodied in the pending deficiency bill, after free discussion the money was voted, and after free discussion the money was issued, and the pursues began to issue, and not till then. Every cent paid under Order No. TS was drawn from the treasury in consequence of "appropriation made by law." Exit the Parker Constitution Club, of NY, with its constitutional ears at balt mast. Now, mark the sequest: On September 10 last, $1,410,000 was covered back into the treasury as the unexpended balance of the appropriation of the $1,500,000, after paying $100,000 in April, May and June to the end of the fiscal year. @Q the certificates issued only 3,850 were for original pensions to veterans who had reached the age of sixty-two or upward, and 14,708 were increases allowed to change their disability less than the amount to which they were entitled under the pension for age. Thus, it will be perceived, the dread of a heavy pension raid on the treasury of the state, glimmering along with the constitutional hysteresis of the Parker Constitution Club of New York. A Baseless Charge. The charge that Mr. Roosevelt is "an unsafe man" is disproved by history. He was Governor of New York for full term. He was a Republican. These are the two biggest executives. posts in the nation. In neither of them did he ever do an executive act that has turned out disastrously for the country? Where does the unanticipated Democrat on this score really a great compliment to Mr. Roosevelt. It is equivalent to saying that he is an energetic President, and that he is a person of people, accustomed to doing things instead of sitting down and dreaming about them, and why should not we have that kind of a President? Mr. Roosevelt's life is greatly preferable to one who has spent his life writing judicial opin- SOMETHING GROTESQUE Hill's Impudent Attack Upon President Roosevelt. In a letter to Forländian Ziegel, President of the Commercial Travelers' League, David Bennett Lloyd assaults the least, is impartiment from the point of view of gendermen. He accuses the President of "brig and bluster," and refers to the "dignified and conservative gentleman the Democrates have nominated." This comes well from the New York Times, which reports that the foxiest politician and the one most lacking in broad statemanship in the United States. There is a certain breeziness and impudence exhibited when he compares his own creature and appointee to the bench with a man like Theodore Roosevelt. If at the same time, if at the same time, the very opposite of respect. This one thing may be, said of David Bennett Hill, who is now the entire Democratic party in the United States and whose creature is the most impudent. He is the brazenness of his non-convictions. He has a certain clever wordiness, too. But facts are facts, and facts' are stubborn things. David Bennett Hill is practically directing the course of the life of the president, his political manager in New York, Alton B. Parker, is the man installed by him as the Democratic candidate for the presidency, and he is a shagdoll political manager; certainly, a man unhired of generally until his owner nominated him as the candidate for the Presidency of a decadent party, and a man unhired of absurd. David Bennett Hill is certainly a "plunger," with his vassals in politics. Democratic Contraction Democratic contraction. Contraction means that the older member than Democrat for the party that favors anti-expansion. Favoring "free silver," which meant the contraction of money and its purchasing power; the hauling down of the stars and stripes in Hawaii, the removal of the military base in ritory" in contraction of territory; advocating curtailment of appropriations by Congress means, if carried out, the contraction of the rural free mail delivery, and of all other internal works and industries favored by the Democratic platform means contraction of markets, at home and abroad, contraction of the demand for labor, contraction of money in circulation, contraction of our bank accounts, contraction of our beds to make our stomachs fit the contracted supply of foodstuffs which experience has taught we must get along with under contracted Democratic administrations. It is in New York that if Judge Herrick is elected governor this fall there will be nothing voluntary about the retirement of David B. Hill from active participation in politics on Jan. 1, 2014, as no room is available on mountain top at the same time for two such organizers as Herrick and Hill. Defective Page DEMOCRACY'S PLIGHT.

Parkeré Forgetful Judge Parker is either too partisan, too ignorant or too forgetful to be accurate in his statements. In allying to the "blessings" of the Cleveland administration he neglected to say that the exports of the fiscal year 1886, when the income on $832,200,487, while last year, the other Roessel, the enormous total of $1,400,868,185.

The result, sir, which would flow from the two policies of limited and unlimited coinage banknotes in the Senate, March 6, 1900. There is no Republican apathy, for we are exceedingly earnest this autumn, but we must be careful not to lose our income in our banknotes. It will be necessary to do something in November. It will be necessary to turn out-and vote. --- LAW AND THE TRUSTS EX- ATTORNEY GENERAL KNOX REPLIES TO JUICE PARKER. Most Eminent Authority in the Country Says There Is No Common Law of the United States that Furnishes a Remedy Against Monopolies. Judge Parker, in his letter of acceptance, said the common law affords a complete legal remedy against monopolies. President Roosevelt, in his letter of acceptance, denied Mr. Parker's assertion by saying that there is no common law of the United States. Now comes former Attorney General Philander C. Knox, probably the most eminent authority in the country on the trust question, who upholds the position taken by the President and shows that Judge Parker is as ignorant of the law as he the tariff and other national questions. Mr. Knox's Speech. In a speech at Philadelphia, on the right at Oct. 1, Mr. Knox said: night of Oct. 1, Mr. Knox said, "In Judge Parker's speech to the notification of the trusts, he said: 'The common law as developed affords a complete legal remedy against monopolies.'" "In President Roosevelt's letter of acceptance, the President said: 'There is no common law principle that Judge Parker's letter of acceptance, citing a case, rejoined that the Supreme Court decided that common-law principles could be applied by United States courts in cases involving interstate commerce in the absence of United States courts in such cases, the case. Such is the law of the land." "Of these three propositions the last two are sound. The first is not. Judge Parker's statement that the common law furnishes a complete legal remedy for a wrongful conviction in general statements, he considered in connection with the subject of which it is predicated. The Judge was discussing trusts and the people wanted to know how interstate commerce could be protected against wrongful conviction. Republiquity thought it could only be done by legislation, and passed the Sherman act for that purpose, which was supplemented by the legislation of the Fifty-eighth Congress. Judge Parker's asks the common law affords a complete—or makes the word—a complete legal remedy." "President Roosevelt's reply that 'there is no common law of the United States' means there is no common law of the United States that furnishes a complete, or I may add, even an insurance policy, against restraints and monopolies." "Judge Parker's rejoinder to this was either intended to mislead the people or he does not know what the case to which he refers decides or what the rule of the common law restraints of trade. I prefer to think the latter is the correct explanation." Case Sited by Parker: "The case to which he refers depends simply that as between parties who are threshing out their differences in a lawsuit in the United States Court the rules of the common law will be applied by the United States Courts, when a different rule has not been supplied by a United States Court, and the matter out of which the controversy arises relates to interstate commerce, as it always has been in respect of other matters. Specifically, the case decides that a telegraph company was liable for damages for charging one newspaper to a customer charged another for the same service under like circumstances. Judge Parker's didactic utterance that "Such is the law of the land," with which he concludes the discussion of this point, is true, but no more relevant than if he had announced that the newspaper charged another for the same service under like circumstances. The decision in the case to which he refers does not mean what it is intended the people should think it means, namely, that the common law can prevent persons from making combinations and monopolies in restraint of interstate commerce. The decision proceed against them at common law. "An agreement in restraint of trade is not and never was unlawful at common law in any such sense that the agreement could be nullified by public authority or that persons not parties to it could sustain an action against it for damages, injunctions, restraints, edicts, and the President is clearly right in saying 'There is no common law of the United States' for any such purpose.' "Parties to an agreement in restraint of trade cannot enforce them, as between themselves, at common law. But that is another question. The President agrees that I will not pursue the subject further. Those who are curious to follow it out will find a most satisfactory discussion of the question by the law lords of England in the Mogul Steamship Company vs. McGregor. Bowen, in his book, states that case states the proposition concisely in this language: 'No action at common law will lie, or ever has lain, against any individual or individuals for entering into a contract merely because it is in restraint of trade.' Also, that contract trade are not illegal in any sense except that the law will not enforce them." Why Does Parker Object? The Democratic presidential candidate says, in substance, that President Roosevelt advocates violent methods of diplomacy; that is, he has departed from the old style, believes in a straightforward expression of exactly what the attitude of this nation is, and does not hesitate to use it quite prepared to take care of itself. Well, what would you have? Are we not a great nation, practically owning with our Canadian brothers, a great continent and quite prepared, not merely to suggest but to assist in the affairs of the world. And is it not a war, or is it an ex-Journaler, David Bennett Hill's expolitical manager, object to this? Democrats and Protection. The difference between the Republican and Democratic parties on the tariff question is radical and fundamental. The former believes in protection to American industries because experience has shown that the protection of the prosperity alice of capitalist and workman, of manufacture and wage earner, or employer and employee. The Democratic party denounces protection as robbery, and would wipe it out. The Democratic platform attempts to make an issue out of tariff revision, but when Democratic orators talk of tariff revision, it is the protective principle with which they are at war. The Republican party believes in real tariff revision. Conditions change, and as they change the tariff needs modification to meet the new conditions. The Republican party would revise tariffs while the Democratic party proposes not to revise schedules but to abolish protection. MODEST JUDGE PARKER His Letter of Acceptance Assumes a Monopoly of Honesty. No one can read Judge Alton B. Parker's letter of acceptance without being struck with its temerity and self-sacrifice in making an issue of administrative honesty between the Republican and the Democratic progeny of David B. Hill and Tammyum Hall is one of those rare men "who can hear the Decadecage and feel its self-reproach." Written primarily for Democratic consumption this letter presumes that members of his party possess a monopoly of the qualities of honesty, sheerity and economy necessary to run a government corruption, crookiness and extravagance. So far as Judge Parker is willing to admit the Republican party of this generation included but one honest politician, and he is dead. With ostentatious recognition of the axiom de mornius in 1815, Judge Parker was able age from the last address of our married President, William McKinley, "who had won the affection of his countrymen," in order to convey the impression that with his demise all that was honest and trustworthy had passed into the past. Judge Parker was candidate who was discovered and groomed for the presidential race by B. D. Hill, William F. Sheehan and Patrick H. McCarren, argues colossal impolence or an ignorance of the situation. How Judge Parker harps upon this issue of honesty may be judged from such passages as these: "Among those (issues) are tariff reform, imperialism, economical administration and HONESTY in the public service." "Whether the purpose of the bill to reclaim arid lands) will be fully accomplished must depend in large measure upon the ability, sobriety of judgment, independence and HONESTY of the officers of the Interior Department having authority over the concession and the enormous expense its carrying out involves makes us realize the overwhelming importance of a broad, capable and HONEST administration of the work authorized by the statute. The people must have navy, however, have suffered from persistent injection of personal and political influence. Promotions and appointments have been frequently based on favoritism instead of merit. Trials and courts-martial have been set aside under circumstances indicated by the Constitution." "A return to the constitutional principles, frugal expenses and administrative PURIPITY of the founders of the republic is the first and most imperious duty of the times—the commanding issue now before the people of the Union" (quoted from a Democratic platform of 1876 as demanding the demand of the people in 1803). The postal franks, in the guilty rassals were exposed, tried and convicted, are made the excuse for the unsupported assertion that "a widespread impulse may discover other cases of misfeasance." It would be interesting to know whether Judge Parker conjured this unbounded impression up out of the "vasty deep" of his own unfamiliarity with pubesries or had it thrust upon him by the unserrulent cock of Wolfer's Roost. He charges a "Violation of national good faith" in the methods by which the executive acquired the Panama canal defence to support the assertion, which is an indictment not only of the executive but of the American people, as the votes ratifying the treaty and appropriating the money to clinch the "violation of national good faith" were practically unmanual. The entire letter invites a comparison of the honesty, courage and administrative capacity of its author and his party with President Roosevelt and his party. The late President Roosevelt's qualities. No one has ever questioned Judge Parker's honesty, but whether he possesses high civic courage and administrative capacity no one knows. But whether he possesses high civic courage would be odd to the party which to-day rests its entire hopes of success upon the favor of Tammany Hall. Investigation and punishment of the party's lieutenant party; the attitude of the Democracy to crimes committed under its rule has too often been illustrated in the insolent and brutal question of Bass Tweed. "What are you going to do about Confidence in Roscoeott Not all public men who are popular enjoy public confidence in the same degree. People may say of a public man: "I admire him for his brilliance and repute, but I do not admire his motives, are altogether disinterested." No person speaks that way of President Roosevelt. People not only admire his资源和 resourcefulness, but they also admire his intelligence. I am not of the kind in the purity of his motives and in his determination to administer the government in the interest of the whole people. That being the case, why not relect him in the public service? Why not hands? Why vote to remove a tried and faithful public servant, or for a Congressman who would try to tie his hands and embarrass his administration? "No other Administration in our history, no other government in the world, no other government in the broadest spirit of brotherhood in our common humanity, or has held a more, resolute attitude of protest against the civilization of age, at home or abroad." Roosevelt's letter of acceptance. The Republican party has more than once used effectively the argument, "Let well enough alone." The Democratic party never had a chance to use it.

You should have nothing less and, as far as I am able, I shall strive, as in the past, to secure you the rights that are yours." CORRECTED EDITION C MICHIEL W. FITZGERALD Republican Candidate for Register of Deeds. POLITICAL POINTERS. Roosevelt and Dunn are the leaders all delight to follow.

Mr. Markham as a public officer has served alike, all classes of people, and the Republican party has shown its appreciation of his services by choosing him as a candidate for the District bench of Ramsey County.

From a small beginning 6 years ago this department has grown until it now occupies the enormous space of nearly 10,000 square feet which gives the North Star people the distinction of owning the largest and best equipped stove department in the entire Northwest. The liberal business policy that has, always characterized the North Star is the liberal spirit with to stoves.
