1 v 3 v."? -: ii - 4 :.f-Jl 4i The Overshadowing Issue. In the Midst of Current Criminations V and Re-Criminations Let Us Heed the Slogan. The Inalienable Prerogative of "theAmerican Citizen Is the Right to Register His Sovereign Will In Selecting Candidates: Eternal Vigilance is the Price of Liberty. The inalienable prerogative of the American citizen is the right to register his sovereign and untrammelled will in the choice of candidates lor political office. In the midst ol criminations and recreminations let us not lose sight of the candidates and platforms of the two National parties and the manner of their respective selections and adoptions. Usually the issues on which opposing political parties go before the people in presidential campaigns are issues tenable in argument as to their constitution ality, and that have been duly formulated in party conclaves and openly pro mulgated in party platforms, thus bringing them within the genius ol our re publican form of government, wherein the people are sovereign whose peio gative it is to select and nominate their candidates, and who are or should be jealous of this their inalienable right, as "eternal yigilance in the price of liberty." Any departure irom this rule by any political party should be regarded by the American people regardless of their hitherto party affiliations as the hoisting ol the flag of treason t the republic and should rally Ihem in unity of determined rebuke, as the call to arms at the threatened invasion of a foreign foe would unite them speedily for their country's defense. We believe that every patriotic intelligent American citizen will agree with us in this statement. In the present campaign an issue is brought face to face with the American people not enunciated as a party policy, in words, but which is more important to be considered by the sovereign voter than the tariff, the currency or any other question in the platform of either party, and that issue is the manner in which the Republican party's candidate for the presidency was selected. Mr. Bryan, was nominated because a large majority of the Democrats of the United States desired his nomination and against the wishes of many able leaders of his party. Mr. Taft was nominated because President Roosevelt had named him as his successor, and had used all the power and patronage at his command as Presi dent to accomplish that result. Taft is but a continuation of the Roosevelt dynasty. If this high-handed invasion of the spirit and perpetuity of our free institu tions can be approved by the American people, it would be far safer and frugal to return to the days of royalty and let the place of power descend from sire to son. Mr. Taft is a man oi high character and great ability, but 'he has lowered himself in the estimation of the whole people by evidence ol his subserviency to Roosevelt. He cannot deliver his speech of acceptance nor give it to the pub lic until he has "said" it to Roosevelt and secured his approval. These are facts that should force consideration irom a free people. In a government such as ours, whose prowess is feared and whose peace is therefore seldom molested, where the exercise of capacity is free and business competitions are brisk and alert, there is little time, in the fever and strife of material affairs, to take pause lor that sober reflection conducive to keeping alive in the breasts of the old and inculcating in the hearts of the young the spirit of liberty. Nevartheless, no state of society can be so highly elevated, nor can any form of government be so thoroughly fortified at all points, as to beibeyond the reach of danger. "Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty." 'The Attraction 1 .-w,iS?-v!i- the Mtssenger SHOWN HF HARVARD. POLITICS AND POLITICIANS. at Opera House Next Saturday Night in Which James Young, the Noted Actor, Appears In Jbe Leading Role. The starring system of the last two decades has wrought wonderful de velopments in all branches of theatri cal life. In a business sense, it has proved an absolute success. By the use of portraiture in advertising, man agers have made their investments in this field permanent and have exper ienced that a following once iounded by offering both a star and a play, at a bareain as it were, can be held by the f Yarmnf a. nersonalitv long after the drawing power of the play has disap peared. That this commercial success, how ever, has hampered the artistic effort nan hardlv be denied. Dramatists have been forced to confine their char aeter drawings to the limitations oi the actor who plays one particular line ef parts and the growing tendancy of the long run has dwarfed the development of artists in minor capacities. Although youthful both in appear ance and ambition, Mr. James Young, whom the Shuberts offer in the title r.la oiBrown of Harvard at the Mes- Ambitions and Prospects ef Men Strutting and Fretting Their Hour on the Stage. (Special to the Argus.) Washington, D. C, Sept. 29. The Independence party in South Dakota has selected a full State ticket, headed by Dr. R. C. Warne, of Mitch ell, as candidate for governor. When the Republican convention ol Massachusetts assembles at the end of this week. Lieutenant-Governor Eben S. Draper will be named for governor without opposition. The recent Republican State conven tion in New Hampshire was controlled by the old "machine" and afforded but another evidence of the strong bold the Boston s Maine Railroad, has on the politics of that State. James S. Sherman, Republican can didate for Vice President, is devoting the present week to speech-making in Illinois and Indiana. Next week he is expected to begin a tour of the States west of the Mississippi. At the recent election in Arkansas, Scares county, one of the two Republi can counties in that State, elected al most the entire Democratic ticket tor the first time in over forty yeais. John Q.

But the Ideal Hardware Co., of your city set 'em up" to as fine cup as we ever enjoyed one day last week while exhibiting their Meteor Perculater, and proving its merits. It is truly an innovation in coffee making. On Monday morning of this week Polly" donned her dressing sack and we thought from all indications tnei equinoxial storm was advancing.

Prompt atten tion to all orders. - We understand one of the ginners in Princeton ha received notice to stop ginning operations until the price of cotton advances to a point ef living profit to the farmer, This is indeed lamentable state of affairs, and the only solutien we ean see to the preb lem, is thorough organization ef the farmers and business men, and thwart the efforts of Wall Street spooulators in tlieir efforts to depress prices, re gardless of size of the crop, or any thing else, save their own individual financial welfare. Just so long as the oottonbelt allows a few men to fix the price for the enormous amount offer tllizers used to make the crop, and then say what they will pay for cotton to pay for those fertilizers, regardless ol the demand, just so long there will be more or less friction and dissatisfac tion among producer snd consumer. But, if the farmers were thoreughly or ganized, and brought to a full realiza tion of the importance of raising more manure at home, and buying less for tilizers, and raising more home sup plies and less ootton, tho problem would solve itself, and in a few years the farmer would dictate the price of cotton, instead of the speculators of Wall Street, and the South would en joy such an era of prosperity as it has never known.
