VAMPIRE THAT SUCKS BLOOD.

Much has been written in the
world of fiction about Vampires
and their awful doings in the way
of bloodsucking, As matter of
fact, there is practically only one
bloodsuckinG Vampire Bat,
although there is smaller one
which connects the common species
with the other members of the
family. The first one, the common
bloOdsucking Vampire, measures
only about three inches in length.
Is of a reddish-brown color, and is
found from Central Africa TO south
ern Brazil, on the east, and in the
west as far as Chill. From the
structure of this bat it is more than
probable that blood actually forms

THE POLITICAL POSITION

Some of the praattneRf politi-
clans of the county are quoted as
saying il Is too early to begin any
active work looking to a Democrat
tic nomination for President next
year.
With that view we fail to agree.
We want the voters of the coun-
try to know all about the man for
whom they are voting.
1t Is our belief that William Il.
IIcerSt Is the most promising man
for the Presidency. and we think
everyone should know that he has
given time and money and brains
to the Democratic cause in the last
two campaigns. and that a PreSi-
dent of the League of Democratic
Clubs he donated a sum of money
equal TO all of the collections of the
League for campaign purposes.
He has constantly and consist
entity advocated laws to curb tine
Trusts.
He Will be a Member of the next
Congress. and will prove his claims
to attention.
We want 10 see him nominated,
because we believe his ideals are
very near to the American people.
But if another should be chosen
to lead our party to victory, the
COURIER will be found in line with
the Democratic nominee.
We have no inclination To bolt
the Party's nominee, but we want
To see the best man nominated.
