Gov. Haskill should have told Roosevelt and Hearst to go hang, iluil is if he is inuocent of the .??ges preferred against him, \y.<i:fi wtj believe he is.

Hermann iiidder is perhaps the most influential German citi zen in this country, and if the Democrats win the coming elec tion, it will be largely by the ?German and Irish vote. NATIONAL politics. The Rational campaign foi the election of a new President of this, the greatest country on the face of the earth, is now in progress. The importance of the result to ovr people es pecially cannot be estimated even on the sordid basis of dollars aud cents, It seems to us that the burning question of the hour shall trie American citizen continue to remain possessed of the right to life, liberty and pur suit of happiness as guaranteed hy the constitution, or will we come under the heel of a tyran nical oligarchy which will in evil ably overthrow our present . epublic.tu form of government ?md give us for decades the rule of the despot with all th<? alien daut evils of that .-oi l of govern ment. ?'hough : 1/ prophet, nor the >1 a i/iophet, we firmly be that ouly m the election of >0 in in the coming election is there safety in the future for the entire uountry.

Wo want to tell y<?u in all trutn und earnestness that Itupublican sucoess in No veiijhur will maple HQ era of want and suffering among the labor ? rtg classes of this country such as the world has nevef seen. It will mean the triumph of sordid oapiul over the helpless pro tost of honest laoor from which 'Miioe.ratio owners of oapital do > 'vo their inooine. It will mean Mo introduction of a form of government repugnant to our iJe ite w( tfoveriiinuut, which ure "government of, by and for ike people". It .will further menu au alarming spread bl anarchis tic sentiment wltli its attendant liorrors of rapine iind murder. This is as it looks to us, and to many other thoughtful men, but what are we of Kershaw county dotng about- it? National campaigns, the result of which determines the weal or woe of the country, cannot be conducted without money, yet, so far as our knowledge goes, not one cent has been contributed to the National campaign fund by ? Kershaw county democrat. We have extended the call of the National Democratic committet for funds. Our fbooks of sub scription are still open, but at this writing, they show un ap palling array of blartlc pages. Wo want to tell you people this?those of you who call your selves Democrats and who have money but wont contribute to the fund necessary to ensure the success of Bryan and Kern and a Democratic Congress, had just as well hang up your shutters and go out of business in the event of Republican success. Any contributions left at this office will be promptly forwarded to their proper destination. \ llait a Close Call. Mr?. Ada L.
