years will be in its hands.
The committee sent to notify Col Les
ter returned with him very shortly after
this. and there was much applause as he
entered the court room. Chairman Estill
said he took pleasure in informing him
that the convention had nominated hdm
again as the Democratic candidate for
Congress from the First CONGRESSIONAL dis
trict.
Mr.. President and gentlemen of the
convention" Col. Lester said, Your COM
mlttee has advised me that you have lone
me the honor to nominate me for Congress.
IL would be false modesty in me to say
that you have forced this nomination upon
me. l appreciate the good will of my
friends, and upon this subject 1 am glad
to be able to say that the convention and
myself are of one mind. Unlike the girl
to whom proposal is made, 1 am NOT
so shy as to have to take time TO con
slider. You have called me and l have
answered present.
Il am glad that this convention has
passed no resolutions binding its caudi-
date. It shows that you are satisfied

and like the. leopard, true Democrat

Col. Lester spoke of the fact that the
great political questions of the day have
been silenced in the presence of arms
The Democratic party, he said, stands for
personal liberty and the largest degree of
individual freedom. 1t is always found
UNFOLDING the right. Its policy is to pro-
tect the people at home as wen as abroad
Now that the country is at war it is the
duty of the people as true patriots to
maintain their country's dignity and hon

to the war. Col. Lester concluded with a
warm expression of his thanks for the
honor conferred upon him.
Mr.. w. w. Sheppard Col. Testers pri-
vate secretary, then stated that he had
been authorized to invite all of the dele
gates 10 the convention to dinner at the
Pulaski House as guests of Col. Lester.
Before the convention adjourned, Chair
man Estill said as chairman of the ex-
ecutive committee he would make it his
duty to see that all of Its members were
notified of all matters which concerned
the committee. 1t was the duty of the
members Of the executive committee from
each county, he said, 10 see that the
party is properly organized in their re-
spective counties, and to see that every
thing was put in shape to bring out a
good vote on election day. Chairman Es-
TIL, upon motion, then declared the con-
vention adjourned sine die.

VICTORY ON SEA AND LAND.
INTENSE MOMENTS IN WARFARE
HOW WOMEN BEAR THE BRUNT
OF WAR.

During the few months we have been
at war with Spain there have been many
critical moments in which men felt that
they were living whole years! The land
ing of the invading army upon the
shores of the enemy's country is perhaps
the most critical time for the success or
defeat of our arms. The enemy can pour
in a deadly fire upon our men as they
wade ashore, while they may be in COM
parative safety behind breastworks. IN
less they are within the accurate range
of our war vessels. In every enga cement
our men have shown the most heroic
bravery and steady, strong nerves coupled
with determination. When Farragut and
Cushing taught the world In the naval
engagement of our late war, of what ma
terlal our navy was made, we did not ex-
pect so soon to see their counterparts in
Dewey and Hobson.
For all the risks that are run by our
men and the critical moments they ex-
perience. and the times when they feel
their nerves stretched to the breaking
point, there is unfortunately another
tremendous nervous strain endured by the
loved ones at home. the women. The
wife, mother or sister at home sits YEARLY
waiting the news of those they love-the
men who are taking desperate risks at
the battles front. With fear and dread
they scan the paper to look over the
names of those lost or wounded in the
last engagement. The greatest calamity,
the saddest picture of all war experiences
is the disaster that falls upon the weak
