As in Iaeksonv!llo 50 N New York,

The New York World, posing a. a
great democratic newspaper, is not
supporting democrat for mayor with
any degree Of enthusiasm. On the
contrary, for months past, it has been
bowing and scraping before the shrine
of Seth Low. Mr.. Low does not pre-
tend To he n democrat. lie never in
his life voted a democratic ticket. By
tradition. instinct and education, he is
hostile to the creed of democracy, so
what claims has he on a democratic
newspaper that it should become his
armor-bearer? He belongs to the "Bet-
ter than Thou class of Americans
those fellows who think tHmingle with

the World, look up 10y telescope to him
as one not of the earth, earthly. Is it
possible that among the more than
million and a half inhabitants of New

paper cannot find democrat fit to

A vorr oY WARNING.

IA is well-lxIlewn to tho.readers OF
the Banner there IS not harmony in
the democratic householda4n the city
~ Jacksonville. II il divided into hos
tile and warring factions. One faction
believes that the Chicago platform is
the dedication ofxpopulism and that
William ]. Bryan is a pestiferous agl.
tator and disturber Of the peace. The
other faction rs ardently believes that
the Chicago platform is the sheet-ans
chor OF democratic faith and that .the
mantle OF Jefferson has fallen on the
shoulders of Bryan and he Is today
the exponent Of genuine democracy.
The membership of one faction is
composed of men like Senator John
Earle Hartridge, who was presiden-
tial electOr on the Palmer and Buck
ner ticket-better known as the Me-
Kinley Mediterranean George Will
sou, who stopped his great perfecting

While the natural cements have an
advantage in poiut of cheapness, this
is more than offset in the artificial by
their superiority. Properly made ar
tiiicial cements have great strength
and indefinite keeping qualities, and
they set as well under water as in the
air.
This kind is subject to the same re-
quirements as to essential components
as the natural. Clay being a combina-
ton Of silica and alumina, is readily

Some clays contain in addition the
necessary alkali, n sure indication of
which is their tendency to fuse when
