WHO FOR PRESIDENT?

Senator George Gray was
hooted at for advancing the
third term" argument for
President Cleveland several
months ago, but we notice
quite 4 number OF local and
national statesmen are now
falling in line. Mr.. Cleveland
is certainly strong with the
party, but there is considera-
bic uncertainty about his ac-
cepting the nomination, even
though it is rendered him unan-
imously. Hon. Bernard Car
ter, a regular Democrat of
Baltimore, declared himself at
the meeting of the Democratic
State Convention in favor of
a third term for Cleveland and

term idea for all it is worth
and ruthlessly thrusts aside all
other leading Democrats as
being out of the question as

Presidency against Reed, Nc
Kinley or Harrison. 1t labels
Hill as the Robert Macaire of
Democracy, German in his
grave, Brice the wandering
Jew of Democracy, Pattison
from a State too surely Re-
publican, and Carlisle repudi-
ated by his own State, and
suggests that he will have to

tinues as though it had com.
pleted the list of men OF enough
notoriety to become nominees
OF the party. May we ask
what has become Of the author

What OF Hon. Adlai Steven.

What of Ex-Governor Ros-

What Of Governor Matthews
Of Indiana?
What of Senator George
Gray, of Delaware?
What Of Senator John Nor
gan. OF Alabama?
What of Secretary OF Agri-
culture, Norton
What of Secretary of War,
Daniel Z. Lamont?
1t might be charged up
against Senator Morgan that
he comes from the once Re-
belious South, but no one can
deny the fact that he is one of
the best equipped men in the
country for the Presidency.
Lamont is strong in New York
and other Northern States, and
Secretary Morton, who is a
sturdy, level-headed gentle
man, would rally to his stand
ard the farmers.
OF course these names are
suggested in case President
Cleveland does not desire the

A Fable Of the Springtime.

Once upon time the Sun and Wind
disputed as to which was the stronger.
Presently wayfarer approached,
and to settle their differences they
agreed that superiority should be
conceded to that one who could produce
the most marked effect upon the man.
"Oh, ] wouldn't do thing to him.
remarked the Wind, and blew vio.
lently.
But the wayfarer only drew his coat
more closely about him and tossed
down ball or two of Medford.
Now watch me, said the Sun, and
shone fervidly whereat the wsyfarer
thought it was spring and changed his
flannels.
Whenever thereafter the Wind be.
came boastful the Sun had but to point
to little mound in the church yard

Personal Abuse In Old Time Cam.
paigns.

paigns.
Nothing in modern times can equal
the virulence and the apparent exacer.
baton of the Presidential campaign of
1928, when Andrew jackson was form
ally entered in the Presidential race
against John Quincy Adams. Person
al abuse was rife. Adams, the impec-
cable, the frigidly just, was accused Of
a variety of crimes, one Of the least of
which was that he acted as procurer
for the Car OF Russia. Clay was brand
ed as an unprincipled adventurer,
and an accomplice of Aaron Burr.
Jackson was stigmatized as a murderer,
a dueling manslayer, cock fighter and
turf sportsman.
1t was in February, 1884, that James
Watson Webb, of the New York Cour-
ier and Enquirer, hit upon the title of
Whig for the National Republican par
ty, brought into existence by the ad.
ministration of John Adams and led by
Henry Clay. The name was suggested,
as Webb averred, by the fact that the
party was pledged to resist arbitrary
government, as the English Wings re.
sisted royalist tyrrany. 1t was sought,
though unsuccessfully, to brand the
Democratic Republicans with the odius
name of Tories. "The Tories" said
Clay, "were the supporters of executive
power of royal prerogative, of the
maxim that the king can do no wrong"
1.-THE Whigs," he added, "were the
champions of liberty, the friends of the
people," What more appropriate dis
tinction than this could be made be-
tween the Jackson men and the follow.
ers Of the great commoner?
The nickname, "Locofoco, )" stuck to
the Democrats with more adhesiveness
than the epithet, borrowed from Eng.
lish politics. Anti bank Democrats of
New York, holding meeting in Tam
many Hall, in October, 1926, we're an
noyed by the bank faction of their own
party, who failing to get possession of
the meeting, turned off the gas from
the main source of supply. The anti
bank men lighted locofoco matches, as
friction matches were then called, and
conducted their deliberations thereby
to close. A "self lightning match"
was itself misnomer, but the name
stuck to anti-bank Democrats, who
were hostile to the moneyed interests
of the country" for a long time after
| this.

oratory spoils great many things in
this world, and, no doubt, some in the
next. In average State Legislature the
orator is a useless person. There is no
more need for him than for the fifth
wheel to wagon or the caudal append.
age of the Darwinian era to the modern
man. He is consumer of time and
an embroyler. Once in a while great
question comes up which the people
like to hear discussed. But then the
speeches have little or no effect The
members do not sit around waiting for
the orators to tell them how to vote.
They determine these matters for them
selves, and without regard to what
may be said upon the floor. Most leg.
islative oratory is simply to show off.
What is of vastly more Importance is
business sense, ability to understand
lawmaking, and, above all, honesty. :"

The recent session of the Georgia
Legislature, having been one of un-

achieved the welcome innovation has

explanation of the marvel in the fact
that there were no orators" in either

explanatory remark the theme of this
brief discourse:
Bismarck many years ago said that
