Georgia, in line with other Southern
states, viii probably send an unin-

Ttere VIII probably be more un1n
structed delegations in the ST. Louis
convention than is ordinarily the case,
because the situation calls for counsel
and delibsration and the exercise of
caution and sound judgement There
is no clamorous demand for any par
ticular man or candidate, and there is
no disposition on the part of thought
full Democrats to favor the sending of
delegations to the convention tied
hand and foot for this or that man and
making deliberative counsel difficult
or impossible. The fact that the party
has no favorite candidate is not to be
regarded as disadvantage The Re
publcans have only one candidate, and
they are not enthused over him True
Democrats are not man worshipers
The party that sets up any one man as
greater than itself is sure to come to
grief. The political idol of today may
be execrated tomorrow. The Demo
cratic party is in position to act in
dependen'ly of any one Individual and
to nominate candidate and formulate
platform as the work of its chosen
representative from all sections. Il

May first, will open at St. James
Church, at $50 A. NJ. a mission that will
continue two weeks. This mission is to
be given by the Passionist Fathers of
st. Michael's Monastery, West Hoboken,
NJ. During the first week the Rev.
Fathers will preach the catholic doctrine
to the people and exhort them to live up
to it. The feature of the second week,
will be the explanation of the catholic
doctrine to the non-catholic, by means
of questions. Every question asked in
writing and placed in question box,
prepared for that purpose in the church,
will be given minute attention and
every evening will be answered with the
utmost courtesy and with the greatest
Christian charity, for the aim of the
Rev. Fathers and of the Rev. Pastor OF
St. James Church, is to' explain in an
ineligible way, the catholic doctrine
and not to hurt their fellow citizens feel
ings.
