ALCOHOLICS AND HORSES.

The suggestion made by General Roy Stone
in his letter in The Tribune OF July y IS being
acted upon In some places with good results.
Horses are being systematically trained 10 re-
gard automobiles without fear This is being
done through amicable cooperation between
mOtormen and horsemen, and is recognized by
both to be to the advantage Of both. II will
he well for the movement 10 be extended.
through individual adoption and through the
organization of veritabe schools for the pur-
pose on a large scale. Thus life will be made
more agreeable the use Of the roads by horse
men will be made safer, and much unpleasant
ness and friction between the users and occu-
pants Of the two classes Of vehicles will be
avoided.
There is no doubt that the great majority Of
horses can quickly and easily be freed from
fear Of automobiles. There are few animals In
the world as Observant as reflective as intelll-
gent and endowed with something so closely
resembling human reason as the horse There
are none more easily taught or which more
tenacously retain and unfailingly practise that
which they have learned. Some horses. il is
true, are hOpelessly ignorant and vicious al
most as much so as some OF their drivers. Such
it might he well TO put out of the way merci-
fully but Notwithstanding which unfort-
unately cannot be done with some of the driv-
erS In the great majority of cases horses are
frightened or are fractions simply because they
are unframed. or, worse still, i'll trained The
man who in breaking In" colt does not train
1t not TO take fright at objects which 1t NAV
encounter Is guilty of grave omission The
man whose only idea of training a horse Is TO
yell at it. saw it's mouth with the bit and fog
1t with the whip and who instantly does all
these things the moment the animal shows
bit of nervousness at a strange object IS
fool, whose experience with horses should he
strictly confined to those Of the wooden va
riety known among army disclplinarians as
the timber mare-several hours day with
weights on his feet
The training of horses to regard automobiles
with equanimity is, therefore. a highly COM
mendable and most promising undertaking
Nevertheless, we bold these facts to be self
evident, that the automobile which reeks of
gasOlene, or which makes a noise like q han
shee walling over a iigsaw, is a nuisance which
should be banished from the surface of the
earth, and that the automobile which "scorches"
at an excessive rate of speed is a menace to
life and limb which should not be tolerated
upon a public highway. If there were no such
things as horses, or if all horses were immune
against fear. we should still object to machines
which offend the nose and ear and which trans
form the highway into n racecourse

THE SOUTH AND TIE PRESIDENCY

About year ago quoted with approval a
suggestion put forward in The Commoner'
that the Democratic party might do worse
than look TO the South for its next Presidential
candidate Just at that moment Colonel
Bryan's political fortunes had reached a des-
perate ebb. The Democrats of Ohio had re-
pudiated his leadership and thrust his efigy
out Of their convention hall. The plans Of the
Eastern reorganizers were taking definite
shape and his own power in party councils
seemed everywhere threatened and under
mined. AS a countercheck to the plotters
who were seeking to reunite the East and
South against him, he dropped what doubtless
he considered a tempting hint TO Southern
Democratic leaders that the hour had struck
for them to reassert their long suspended
nairns to national recognition. For thirty five
years, as Colonel Bryan pointed out the South
had furnished the votes in Congress and in the
Electoral College which made the Democratic
party what it was in national politics. Yet in
ell that time It had not named. or sought to
name. q single Presidential VicePresi-
Dental candidate.
Colonel Bryan argued with commendable,
though perhaps suspicious, generosity that
sectional considerations should no longer gov
ern in the choice Of Presidential nominee.
At the South, however, his advances were
rather coldly received. Southern leaders
seemed to think the time was scarcely ripe for
such a questionable experiment Even so i'm
petuous Southern politician Colonel Henry
watterson is said to have declared the other
day that not within a genera ton can the
Democratic party safely name a Presidential
candidate from any State which once attempt
ed TO disrupt the Union
There are signs abroad, however, of the
South's WEAKNESS of the role of self-suppres-
sion it has been condemned to play In national
politics. A year after Colonel Bryans rather
futile effort TO stir its sense Of discomfort we
find vigorous agitation beginning in certain
quarters for a complete recognition in Demo
cratic national conventions Of Southern leader
ship. 1.-The Commercial Appeal" of Memphis.
one OF the most progressive and influential of
Southern newspapers, has just begun cru
SADIE against the policy which has tied the
Southern States politically, first to one dis
tasteful alliance and then TO another-clutcb-
ing the skirts now Of Eastern plutocracy -
now of Western Popuism" The South.
The Commercial Appeal maintains, has long
enough been looked upon las a convenient
asset" by the Democratic leaders of the West
and North. 1t should no longer be the moor
relation" in politics, the barefooted bow AT
the froiic." And to the leaders who have
spilled the party from the frying pan Of Cleve.
