BRYAN'S PAPER THIS IS THE STORY. Tho most notable nml Important feature of tho opening of the Repub lican campaign at Youngslown, O., recently was not tho speech of Gov. Hughes, nor yet that of Senator Hoverldge. It was the part tho steel trust took in this formal launching of the Tnft campaign in Mr. Taft's own Btute. Tho Associated Pros dlspntches briefly indlcnted what happened in tltltf paragraph or Its report; "Along tho rust-red waters of the Mahoning river to-day tho great mills of tho Carnegie works of the United States Steel Corporation, the Republic Iron and Steel Company, and the Youngstown Sheet and Tube Com pany wero quiot, for a three day holi day had been declared, Including Sun day and Labor day. Youngstown is a Bteel town, nnd tho brawn and muscle of her chier industry formed tho body of tho parade which preceded tho dls charge or tho heavy political ord nance." Tho extended fipccinl report which tho Cincinnati Hnqulrer gives or tho big meeting throws more light on this highly interesting feature. Wo quote from tho Knqulror of Sunday, Sep tember G: "Tho commanding feature of tho day was tho parade which preceded tho speaking in Wick park. Thero wore a few over 112,000 men in line. Of these more than 10,000 camo from the Bteel mills. Supplied with uni forms at tho expense of tho com panies, tho tollers presented a strik ing appearance as they marched past tho reviewing stnnd. Hecauso or the opening a shutdown of the mills was ordered till next Monday, and tho oc casion made a holiday. Hut few or theso workers attended tho meeting in Wick park. This wns easily seen by the lack or uniforms in tho crowd. Probably not over one-tenth of the turnout came to hear tho speeches. They found other attractions that the holiday furnished and wero content to let others listen. "There were thousands or Hun garians, Roumanians and other Slav people in this division. Each man wore a khaki suit and carried a cano or Hug furnished by his employers. They wero divided into brigades and were organized on military lines, hav lng regimental and brigade ofllcers. "Ono of the unusual Incidents oc curred when tho parade halted at the Elks' club. Somo ono cnlled for a cheer for Taft. Out of the uniformed ranks in response came a roaring shout for Ilryan, and tho column moved on." This is tho story. It carries its own argument, and requires very Httlo comment by way or elucidation. Omaha World-Herald. THERE IS THE RECORD. Referring to tho Democratic cam paign text book for 190S tho Now York World says: "The Democrats lmvo stout rods in pickle Tor tho Republicans this year, as is proved by their campaign hook or 300 pages, but they apply none or them to tho Republican president. They are opposed to Jingoism, mili tarism and imperialism,' and yet the most warliko of presidents escapes criticism. They denounco extrnvn ganco nnd waste nt Washington, and tho mnn who is largely responsible for this reckless expenditure finds no ac cuser. They mako war upon tho priv ileged plutocrats or the tariff, the com bines nnd tho trusts, nnd yet the only president who over sent for a Harrl mnn and arranged for tho collection of a campaign corruption fund is no whoro condemned. They demand pub licity in cnmpnlgn expenditures, and yet a president who neglected at a critical time to Insist upon that policy is hold blameless. They reproach tho Republican party for Its fnlluru to on forco tho laws against tho pirates of Interstnie commerce, and yet tho pres ident, who holds that the laws aro too drastic and that thoy must bo modi flod, goes free of censure." Harsh words aro not necessary. Tho Democratic text book shows up the Republican record, and nothing could bo gained by bitter denunciation. Tho factB as to Jingoism, militarism, Im perialism, extravagance and wasto at Washington, tariff privileges enjoyed uy combines and trusts, Hurrlman's contribution to the Republican cam paign fund, tho Republican party's falluro to enforco tho luw, and tho Re publican record gonornlly these things aro all presented in compact form. Thero is tho record. Tho people may apply It and tho Commoner ho lioves they will apply It, so as to de feat tho political parly that is re sponsible for thnt record. In tho meantime anyone may obtain a copy or tho Democratic campaign text book ror 1908 for 25 cents. It will bo sent, postpaid, for tlvt sum.

An editorial printed In the Fort Woith tTex.) Record or September G, will give tho Republican standpatters something to think nbout. The Record's editorial follows: "Scattered over the editorial page of the New York Herald the following line In Italics appears several times: 'Mr. Ilryan promises u tnrlfT reform. Hut can ho deliver the goods with n Republican house of representatives and a Republican senate?' "The Herald is openly fighting Mr. Ilrynu, but tho Intended nttack upon him In this query Is pretty much of a boomerang. Kb logical answer makes more ror Mr. Ilryan than against him. The Republican party is pledged to tariff levlslon, yet the Herald asks: Can Ilryan bring tnrlfT revision with the handicap of a Republican senate and house? Does that mean that a body of Republican lawmakers means that thoro shall be no tariff revision? Does that mean that tho Republican promise for tnrlfT revision Is mean ingless? Very evidently the Herald so believes. Nor is the Herald alone In thai belief. "And If .Air. Ilryan, Democrat, enn not deliver tho goods of tnrlfT revision in spite or ii Republican congress, how will Mr. Taft bo able to accomplish tho feat? Tho Herald's argument Ib so loose and vulnerable ns to bo un worthy of any paper which aspires to the position In politics and Journalism which the Herald assumes to 1111. "Hut the onBWcr to the question Is that In the gathering together of tho body of men who will make tho next congress there has been in many cases a sucilflce or party afllllatloiiB ror tho naming of tho better mnn. Also, the men who will form the next congress are In many cases more patriotic than partisan. There nro Republicans who will Htnnd with tho Democrats for tariff revision in spito of all powers against it, bocauso tariff revision Ib a matter greater than parly at this time. It Ih going to be n pretty dim cult Job ir Mr. Ilryan Ib elected to prevent tarllT revision." THAT LEATHER BELTING PLA CARD. The following Ib u Pittsburg (Pa.) Post editorial: "Whoever in memory reenlls tho Garfield campaign can see those crim inally coercive plncardB on Ohio fac tories: This mill will shut down if Hancock Is elected.' Every manufac turing stnto In tho union in every cam palgn since lias been disgraced by tho same style of placnrd. West Virginia knows tho felonious device. Some times it Ib a promise, ns It must bo now, that mills will resume if Mr. Tntt is elected. In times when Re publican punlcB had not thrown thou sands Into Idleness and stopped the wheels, It has been a threat to closo; an assault upon tho American right to a free ballot. The promise Is an attempted bribe; the shut-down intim idation of more prosperous eniB has been an outrage upon the ballot. "Mr. Kern hns pilloried tho perpe tratois of this criminal offenso against the freedom of political choice, against tho uso of God-given intelligence by tho American workingmnn. Former President Parry or tho National Man ufacturers' association, which does such yeoman servico in exposing tho Iniquities or Dlnglcylsm, furnishing the details otherwiso procurable with great difficulty by the layman, de nounces unfair tactics like these by employers. Ho frankly confesses that tho election of Ilryuu and Kern would entail no disaster, no damaging effect upon business, nor would It at nil In tel fero with the economic conditions and the phenomenal wealth and re sources of America, which aro bound booh to restore that prosperity driven away by Republican Insensate folly und profligacy. "And now a contemporary uffects ig norance of where these placards aro hung. Every utterance or Mr. Tart is a demagogic plncurd when ho preaches that Mr. Hryan's election would incite a new panic or be nn obstacle to pros polity's return. Every false Bcreech by Ills organs is such n placard. Tho Leather Molting Company of Now York lias started tho placarding. ItB effect Is now gone." MAYBE YOU OVERLOOKED THESE FACTS: Senator Fulton went to Oregon nnd asked for re-election, and tho peoplo said: "WE WANT A CHANGE!" Senator Hansbrough went to North Dakota for re-election, nml tho peoplo Bald: "WE WANT A CHANGE!" Senator Klttredgo heard it In South Dakota, from tho peoplo: "WE WANT A CHANGE!" Senator Long asked tho peoplo of Kansas for re-election, nnd tho peoplo shouted: "WE WANT A CHANGE!" Senator Hopkins went to Illinois and asked for re-election, and two-thirds of tho Republicans of Illinois announced: "WE WANT A CHANGE!" Almost one-hair or the Republicans of Iown, oven when asked by their dis tinguished Senator Allison, replied: "WE WANT A CHANGE!" Tho voice or tho peoplo Is unmis takable. Wherever they have had a chanco to speak, thoy have earnestly lifted their volco, saying: "WE WANT A CHANGE!" Thnt sontlment Is sweeping tho whole country: "WE WANT A CHANGE!"

David hud mi'de a league of friend ship with Jonathan, Snul's boh, which was to extend to tholr children. All the affection tills princo had lavished upon David now came back In full tide to prompt him to express his apprecia tion of It by kind deeds to somo of the famllr. Ho hud also loved Saul him self. As far tiB Saul was concerned It was a noblo example of doing good to enemies, according to tho precept, or Prov. 25:121, 22 nnd Rom. 12:19-21. Saul had soveral times tried to kill David; ho had drlvon him Into exile, und hunted him from plnco to place. There wiib a long, black chapter of wrongs in the past. He Finds MephlboBheth. Son of Jonathan. Zlbu, an ofllccr of tho house of Saul, reported to David that a son of Jonathan was living In the home or Mnchlr In Lodobnr, a placo not far from Mnhunaltu. Mephlboshelh, whose name wiib or iginally Mcrlbbaal, "Lord Mori" (1 Chron. S:ai; 9:10). was five years old (2 Sam. -1:4), when his father Jon at ban and his grandfather Saul woro slain on Mount Gllbon. When tho nuws enme of their dentil tho lioy's nurso took him and fled townrd Jczrecl, and In her haste let him fall. Ho was so Injured thnt ho was nil his lire lame in both root. Ileing llvo years old nt Saul's death ho must liavo been 12 or 111 years old when David became king over nil Israel. When, thorcrore, lie came to court he must have been !10 years old, was married, and had a little son (v. 12). Mephlboahoth, ns the representative or Saul's eldest son, had the precedence over Saul's other grandsons, and was Saul'B heir. Other Accounts of Mephlboshelh. See 1 Chron. 8:31-40; 9:40-44; 2 Sam. 4:4; 21:7; 10:1-4; 19:24-:i0. Mephlboshoth's Property Restored, and Himself Drought to tho Pnlaco. Tho oriental Idea was that nil tho fnm. lly or a rival claimant to tho throno should bo put to death, or removed from all possibility of inciting an in surrection. His inheritance from Saul was re stored to Mephibosheth. It must have been considerable. It was placed un der Zlbn, a steward, and tho revenues wero to bo sent to his master at tho court of David. Mephibosheth was Invited to alt at tho royal tablo as a part or David's household. Tho Syrian missionary, Rev. William Ewlng, says in tho Sun ilny School Times: "When two men eat bread together, this Is tho desert Micramont, the Blgn and seal of n cov enant of friendship, n leaguo for mu tual protection. TIiIb is so ir they ent hut once. Had David only on ono oc casion Invited Mophiboshoth to Bit nnd eat with him, ho would thenceforth have boon known as tho king's frlond, to Injuro whom would" bo to provoko the monarch's vengeance. Rut a placo 'continually' at tho royal tablo declared a relationship or a deeper and stronger kind. Ho who cats 'con tlnunlly' at an Arab's board has passed the conditions or mero 'guest' or 'frlond,' and Is acknowledged as identified with tho family In all its manifold Interests. David thus dovlsed light Hbernl things for tho unfortu nate son of tho beloved comrado of other days." Llko David, wo aro not to wait till tho needy como to us, but wo aro to search for any wo can help; canvass our Held, and find out who can bo In vited to eat tho bread of llfo continu ally with us In our class. Wo should orgunizo and train our elasB to go Into tho highway and hedges If need bo, and bring others In to enjoy tho good things of tho Uiblo with them. No ono should bo too busy to do nets of kindness to Individuals, and to pay by kindness tho dobts or lovo. "Elevation to power is a God-given opportunity" for remembering those who liavo been less successful.
