More than 30 witnesses were called

that Mrs. Clare had a regular coterie to

between Mrs. Claie and some of the
witnesses, most of whom were old sol

warmly.
A number of witnesses testified posi

Why Mr. Taft
Should Be Re-elected!
IT is now only a few days until the election.
The situation is unusual: but no voter need hesitate over his
choice of a candidate for the presidency.
The issue is clean-cut: the lines of difference are sharply de
fined: the personalities of the three candidates, and the principles they
stand for. admit of no misunderstanding.
The conviction that Mr. Taft should be. and will be. re-elected
has taken firm hold of the entire country.
It is only what might have been expected, however. In the long
run the good common sense of the American people make few mis
takes.
* * *
History and custom favor a second term for a President of the
United States who has served his country worthily and well. Notably
has this been so at times when the nation was passing through more
or less critical periods.
Five of the first seven presidents served two terms each. The
country was in its formative years, and sure and steady growth with
few changes was important.
The crisis of the Civil War cailed forth a second term for Lincoln.
Grant served two terms during the reconstruction period. McKinley
was elected for a second term at a crisis when his abilities matched
the country’s needs. Roosevelt's two terms came at a time when the
army and navy were much in the public eye.
Today we face industrial and commercial questions of international
importance. Tariffs, trusts and treaties demand the watchful care of
an executive possessed of wide experience, broad sympathy, an analyt
ical and judicial mind, unwearying poise and patience.
It is not a time that calls for a man of impetuosity and impulse.
Not an occasion for academic discussion or paper debate.
It is the people's bread and meat, their clothing and shelter that
are at stake! It means plenty or poverty! It is a time of problems
that affect the very life-blood of every American home!
At this crisis what so necessary, what so wise, what so SAFE as
to continue in office a President who has already brought new life and
prosperity to a country that, when he was elected less than four years
ago. lay prostrate under panic and helpless from industrial distress?
* « ft
It is probably true that had it not been for Mr. Taft's courageous
act in signing what was—at first—mistakenly presumed to be a bad
law there would have been only praise and commendation for
his administration.
He has been assailed with much unjust criticism, but people are
NOW beginning to realize that the tariff is a much better law than
they—in hasty impatience—had supposed. They are beginning to
admire the courage and wisdom of Mr. Taft in approving it in the face
of the storm that he well knew would break upon him.
The tariff has produced the revenue that was absolutely needed,
and which was one of the objects for which it was introduced.
It has done this with reduced duties on necessities and increased
duties on luxuries: and with a total lower average duty on all articles.
It included Mr. Taft's plan for a Tariff Board—the sanest, most
common-sense, business-like method of tariff-building that has ever
been devised.
It established also the maximum and minimum clause through the
operation of which our foreign trade has already reached its highest
record.
It is a part of Mr. Taft's plan to gradually and judiciously revise
such portions of the tariff as the accurate and exhaustive investigation
of a Tariff Board demonstrates can safely be amended.
♦ ♦ ♦
Mr. Taft's position on the question of the trusts is effective, just,
and according to the law and the constitution.
In a little over three years he has done more to actually solve the
problem than had been done in ten years preceding his election. And

he has accomplished it quietly, uneventfully, without blowing of trum
pets. and without filling the jails indiscriminately with business men
and corporation officials.
Mr. Taft believes there are benefits to be had from modern meth
ods of economy in manufacturing and merchandising. While at the
same time he seeks ever to guarantee and preserve the rights of the
wage-earners and consumers-
« * •
Every country in the world is experiencing high prices for the
necessities of life.
Prices are highest in the countries that are enjoying the greatest
prosperity. Low prices are frequently the forerunner of panic and
poverty. It makes no difference how cheap a thing may be if YOU
nave no money with which to buy it.
The fact that articles that are entirely free of duty, or on which
the duty has been reduced, have risen more in price than articles
which pay higher and increased duties, clearly proves that the tariff is
not the cause of the high cost of living.
This is further demonstrated by the fact that prices have risen all
over the world. Certainly the American tariff is not the cause of a
condition that is world-wide!
Mr. Taft proposes an exhaustive international investigation of this
condition. Action is then to be taken in accordance with the result
of the inquiry.
* * •
In the face of Mr. Taft's splendid record of the past three and a
half years, and of the certainty and safety for the future that will ac
company bis re-election, it is unwise to listen to the appeal of office
seeking ooliticians whose stock in trade is a wordy clamor for "a
change.”
Should we not rather heed the counsel of the wise McKinley,
who said:
“ Let us hold fast to that which we know is good?”
It might easily be that—likfe the dog in the fable —in grasping at
the alluring shadow of what is asserted to be a larger piece of meat
we would lose our firm grip on the perfectly good portion we now have
and are sure of!
It is always the grass on the other side of the street that —until
you get to it—seems to be the greener.
Which is merely another way of saying that Taft and SAFE' '

Attempts are being made to ridicule this warning of the effects
"free trade” and “tariff for revenue,” but the recpllection of the
TRUTH is still too vivid to be thus easily removed.
It is not theory! It is HISTORY!

There are but TWO real candidates—and TWO issues!
