Plenty of Material.

An illustration of the accuracy of
the republican press is shown in the
situation relative to the choice by the
democratic party of a presidential
candidate. Several months ago de-
risive remarks were made by the re-
publican press to the effect that the
democratic party could not find a can
didate who wanted the nomination
The truth of the situation is that there
are so many candidates. so much en-
thusiasm, so much competition and so
much demand for the nomination by
so many democratic enthusiasts that
the situation is intensely interesting
A few weeks ago the republican press
intimated that the delegates TO the
St. Louis convention would be on their
knees imploring some one to accept
the nomination.
Hearst and Parker are recognized
as leading candidates as they have
most of the instructed delegates Then
there are mentioned Adlai Z. Steven
son of Illinois, Gray of Delaware Oh
ney Of Massachusetts. Wall of Wiscon-
son. Folk of Missouri. Harmon of Gin
cinnati. Kilbourne of Columbus. Nc
Cleiidh VI Ne" iOIh, GOIHldH OF mary
land. and half dozen others. among
them Cleveland.
There are a score or more of can
didates. and the interest taken in the
convention is intense. The convention
promises to be one of the most en-
thusiastic ever held by the party. In
terest is taken in this convention be
cause the democratic party of the
United States is today pleading the
cause of the people and the people are
greatly interested in what the St.
Louis convention will do.
II a Jeffersonian democrat is nomi-
mated by the st. Louis convention he
will be elected because the people are
today manifesting a desire that such
a man and such a democrat be elected

What's in a name? If Bob White

eminent report urges the adoption of
measures to secure the preservation
of Bob Whites. So Bob has estab-
lished a reputation. But after all
there isn't much in his name. We
know him quite as well by the name
of Common Quail.
Bob won his good name in this way.
Certain observations. experiments and
Investigations by the ornithologists of
the department of agriculture have
proved that Bob White is a good
friend to the farmer. They cannot
speak too loudly in his praise. The
bird consumes large quantities of weed
seeds and destroys many insect pests.
and still does not feed upon grain.
fruits or any other crop.
Ii has been estimated that in Vir-
ginia alone the little family of Bob
Whites consumes what would amount
to $40 tons of weed seeds. The cot
ton boil weevil, the Rocky Mountain
locust, the cotton worm and the pota-
to beetle are pests upon which the
Bob White feeds. Any one of these
insects. when out in force, will dam
age a states crop to the extent of mil
lions of dollars year.

they desire to purchase and put into
