FAFT WRITES LETTER TO BUSINESS MEN OF t4 THE UNITED STATE S Executive Discusses Meaning of Democratic Victory in Note to Sound Money League. PROSPERITY WOULD BE HALTED Many Changes Threatened in the Economic System. MANY UNCERTAINTIES IN SIGHT Business Would Be Impaired and Demand for Labor Decrease. HE TAKES LOOK BACKWARD Reference is Made to Effect ot Previous Revisions of the Tariff According to Democratic Principles. BEVERLY, Mass., Sept. 26. Presi dent Tali nas sent a telegram to H. W. Dearborn, chairman of the executive committee of the Commercial Travelers' Sound Money league, now In session in New York, expressing the opinion that business unrest will result if the demo cratic party is victorious in the coming election. The telegram in part is as follows: "The league has done so much good in the past that it is of the utmost im portance that its influence should be ex erted in another direction., on the issue of which largely depends, in my Judg ment, the continuance of the great era of prosperity, high wages and good profits, which is now just opening to the people of this country. I ask the business men of this country what en couragement they will find and what new investments they feel like making if they arise from their beds on 'the sixth day of November next and learn that the democratic party will after the fourth of March, 1913, be in absolute control of the executive, the senate and the house of representatives? No one can affirm the extent of the changes which, would be effected in our economic system by such a result except from what has happened in the past The tariff would then be revised on 'democratic principles, as shown by the democratic bills of the last two sessions of the congress, and our whole economic system changed. Prosperity would be halted, business would be impaired and the demand for labor would show a marked falling off." jMenWho Opened Fire on Militia Succeed in Making Their Escape CHARLESTON. W.

When the sun peered from behind the clouds at 2:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon more than 100 men, managers of shows on the carnival grounds, raised their eyes to the skies and breathed a sigh of ap preciation. Likewise several thousand Omahans whispered their thanks toward the federal building, where Brother Welsh, concocts the weather. 'Vi. As per the official prognostlctor's an nouncement the sun spread its warm cloak over Nineteenth'' ' and Douglas streets in the afternoon and forthwith the King's Highway .began to fill with frolickers. The opening night of the show having been somewhat a disappointment, the second night held out copiously filled coffers for the concessionaries of the carnival. The hilarity there last night had con siderable more spice than the evening of the opening, which, of course, was due to the favorable condition of the weather. NV)w that additional good promises are held out by the weather bureau, the board of governors of Ak-Sar-Ben, as well as the thousands of Omaha hosts and hostesses, are wearing smiles. People Called by Band. Dimick's band began the hilarity Sn the highway promptly at 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon and until late last night its music could be heard all over the down town shopping district, calling the folk of carnival spirit within the hlghboard fence which encircles the streets and the square blocks from Eighteenth to Twen tieth street and, from a half block south of Douglas to Dodge . street. Within this space tlrtre are shows to interest every class of citizens, from the mere curtoslty seeker- to. hychqlogist, the botanist,' the anthropologls-from the lowbrow to thhighHitpW!PMs-,TJire tu deep sea monsters, glla, mppsters, human monsters and monstrosities and wonders of all descriptions. Frofn one show to the, other crowds went last night inspecting each one thor oughly. The chief things of Interest there are the two-headed Chinese Pa-lu-ca. the six-legged Poly-moo-zuKe,. the largest oc topus In captivity, reptiles of the Nile and other places, the Crazy House, Prince Deloy, the little musician and ladles' man; Prof.- Huhu, the electrical wonder; Bluey-Bluey from Madagascar and the cocoanut-headed boy. The usual stocks of things to eat are on the highway. The Ladles' Aid. society of the German Lutheran church has a prominent stand directly Inside te main entrance to the grounds. Pleasant women move out from this place like ants from a hill soliciting orders for their "weenies" and coffee. Other stands sell popcorn, peanuts and candy. Saturday has been set aside by the Ak-Sar-Ben Board of Governors as chil dren's day at the carnival. All children under 12 years of age will be admitted at half price and admission to the shows also will be reduced in price for them.
