This is beautiful hand-painted china, 31 pieces to the set. While they last we will give one to any young lady who secures only FIVE new subscriptions to The Journal for one year each. It is no trouble to get five new subscriptions among your neighbors for The Journal at one dollar per year. Work quick, there are only a few sets is not for partisan expe diency, not for friends, nor for the parly cause, but for the people. So it is, so it is. But the friends and the partisans can usually make it appear that their desires and the people's cause is one and the same. All "pork barrels," says Mr. Hughes river and I harbor and similar appropriations that are sometimes more for political 'purposes than for public benefit will be cut out. All these things he will do, declares the Republican pres- idential candidate, even If it wreck i his personal political fortunes. Mr. Hughes would have us believe that he is far removed from the com mon run of political candidates; that in administering the government the i people only would be considered; th.it . efiicieucy and not politics would mark appointments to office. Mr. Hughes 1 paints an local condition one that s-huuld exist but one that never will exit until human nature changes. Abuses in public service can be re formed of course, should bo and will e, whenever the people choose to tied iin 11 to of lice who will not stand for t In in. But Mi-. Hughes cannot expect the public to lake his state ments seriously cannot expect the public to believe that he will be so different from other Republican Pres idents such as Talt, Koosevelt, Me Kinley, Harrison and others. Thest men put their friends and - their friends' iriemis in office, no matter if the man displaced was efficient; and Republican Congresses have passed river and harbor bills and other pork barrel measures without limit. Even the eminent air. Koosevelt, who posed as an evangel of light on occasion. ; as a holier-than-thou, even as Mr. , Hughes is posing now, and who de ! nounced crooks unsparingly at limes, did not hesitate when it suited his 1 purpose to make to himself friends of the mammon of unrighteousness. I Does anybody believe that the Ke- publican party, who will elect Mr. . Hughes if he is elected, has so chang- ,ed that it would depart from the cus j toms of the past? Does anybody be Phnnp 091 i Neve that even if Mr. Hughes should "unl "'i,;want to do nnd should try to do, in ... ; the event of his election, what he pretends lie will do, that he would be : permitted lo carry out the pro , gramme? If anybody does believe i these things he should be bored for j the simples. I And there is no evidence to show ; that Mr. Hughes would even try to ! play the high sounding role of w;iich he talks r glibly. He was Govern or of Nt tork State and if he made any marked change for the bet- ter iu the public service of that nota ! bly corrupt State, the public doesn't know it. Mr. Bryan says he had the ' support of the corporations and he i stood by them when they elected him ; by vetoing a 2-cent fare law passt d by the Legislature; that he had the sup port of the tax-dodgers and the own era of swollen fortunes, and that he repaid them by opposing the Feder al income tax law. In short, it seems that as Governor of New York Mr. Hughes had the support of "The In terests" and that he stood by "The Interests" and that he stood by "The "The Interests" in this campaign and "The Interests" rather than the peo ple, whose welfare he so earnestly professes to desire, would profit by his election.
