The Democratic Nominee.

Ii is not . question Of Robertson
or Barrow, but one Of party dis
cipline and party success. If you
are q Democrat you must line up
with those supporting the regular
nominees Of Democracy from
Bryan to Robertson. You may
call yourself Democrat, but if
you support candidates other than
those nominated regularly you are
not staunch one.
No one of intelligence, who keeps
abreast of the times, can truthfully
assert that he does not believe that
Robertson, carried the district in
the primary mass meetings and pri-
maries, and there are none but are
aware of the fact that the people of
West Feliciana, at the polls, in
structed their delegates to the
nominating convention to vote for
Robertson or that their failure TO
do so was the main cause of the
split in the convention which led
to the bolt Of the opposition.
1t Is useless to discusses these
matters, so we will return 10 the
subject Of regularity.
The convention which nominated
Robertson was called by the Demo
cratic Executive Committee; mass
meetings were held in some
parishes and primaries 10 others,
under official calls of the parish
committees; the delegates thus Sc
lected assembled on the day set
for the convention with a majority
favorable to Robertson; a boiling
faction Withdrew from the conven-
ton, leaving q quorum and a legal
and these clothed with
Democratic authority and regu-
larity nominated Col. Robertson.
This nomination is the one recog-
nixed by the Democratic party,
and the name of the candidate will
be entered upon the election tickets
under the rooster and following
that of VIM. J. Rryan. The name
of DR.. Barrow will be found else
where. Which ticket will you
vote: The straight Democratic
ticket or the one which represents
no party:
View the matter from any stand
point and you still find that Robert
son is the regular. legal Democratic
and that failure to sup
port his claims is treason TO the
party.-Baton Rouge Truth.

HAVE YOU BEEN THERE Too'
If Not, Don't Fail to go to the Presbyterian
Bazaar

Again was the Presbyterian Bazaar in
the Edward and Broughton building the
scene Of unwonted and gratifying activity.
From the time it opened until it closed last
night, the ladies were kept busy pre-
pairing and selling lunches and delicacies,
and the many bright and attractive
things they have for sale. The first thing
you see when you go in is big sofa
cushion ornamented with a realistic re-
production of a football scrimmage-the
very thing for young man inclined to
things athletic to give his best girl Then
a row of the neatest and daintiest of
white aprons, and some dolls. and some
candy. and every sort of knick- knack and
toy imaginable. The little children who
go in are verify of the opinion that the
promoters of the enterprise are in some
unholy kind of an alliance with Santa
Claus, whereby that chubby old saint has
been sand-bagged into furnishing adj
vance installments.
And then the lunches-not railroad
counter amulgam plated understandable
sandwiches, but toothsome and appetizing
dainties, prepared by the best cooks and
prettiest girls in Raleigh. Just the thing
for the busy man caught in the rush of
business, and unable to get home to lunch.
The bazaar continues open today and
tomorrow. Prices are reasonable, and
you get your moneys worth. Don't fail
to come.

fought in vindication of the rights of

against this war, it realized that as the

insufficient
Mr.. Levy IN. ", argued that the pend
ing bill did not go far enough He was
in favor of wiping out surplus revenues.
Mr.. Hill Comm, discussed at length
some proposed amendments to the pres
ent currency law.
Mr.. Underwood (Alal. said that the
present was an opportune time for an
equitable adjustment of the burden OF
taxation so that one interest should not
be unduly oppressed. Had he the power,
he said, he would discriminate if there
was to be discrimination against the idle
holders of idle wealth, not against pro-
1uctive wealth and enterprise. In the
pending bill unproductive wealth was abb
solutely untaxed.
Mr.. Bartholdt (Mo), assaulted the pro-
posed reduction on beer which he contend
ed was not sufficient He gave notice
that he would offer an amendment to re-
duce the tax on beer to $3.50 per barrel.
Mr. Boutell Qlls), also criticised the
bill. He disliked it, he said, not so much
for what it did as for what it failed to
do The pledge of the Republican leaders
that the War Revenue Act was strictly a
war measure, and would be repealed when
the war was over should be redeemed.
He thought this could be done by abolish

Paper Read Before the Mayors Convention
The Mayors 60 on an Excursion.
(By the Associated Press. J

Charleston, S. c., Dec 13.-At today s
session of the convention OF the League
of American municipalities, Mayor j. A.
Jones, of Fargo, n. D., read a paper on
Street improvements whether they should
be done under the contract system or by
the municipalities as the employer of
day labor, and Mayor John b. Weakley,
of Florence, Ala, addressed the league
on ''the best method for the assessment
and collection of taxes and the limitation
on the taxing and debt creating powers
of municipalities.
Health officer William r. Drummer. NJ.
d., of Savannah, read a paper on 1.-The
Prevention of the Introduction of Epi-
dsmic Diseases into the United States -
The paper treated of Asiatic cholera, ty-
plus fever, yellow fever and bubonic
plague. The introduction OF any or all
of them into the United States, said DR..
Drummer, was probable unless the proper
precautions were taken by the cities on
the coast. He told of the many times
yellow fever had been introduced into
cities on the Atlantic and Gulf coasts be-
cause of the lack of proper quarantine
laws, causing the death of thousands Of
people. DR.. Drummer urged the necessity
of national quarantine laws Of States and
cities on the coast; the entrance of these
diseases could not be guarded against
unless there were national laws and
measures to see that the quarantine regu
lations were carried out.
At noon the members of the conven-
ton, their families and friends went on
on excursion round the harbojr passing
Fort Sumter Fort Moultrie, Fort John
son, and Castle Pinckney, and going sea-
ward for a short distance through the new
jetty channel. The excursionists landed
at the Isle of Palms where a lunch
was served at the Seashore Hotel to the
seven hundred guests. AT its conclusion
Mayor Smyth called upon the representa-
tives of the various towns, wishing to
have the next convention to speak out
