Senator Martin at Abingdon.

Senator Thomas S. Martin and former
Representative William F. Rhea spoke
to a large and enthusiastic audience IN
the courtroom at Abingdon yesterday
afternoon. More than twice as many
people as could find admittancc sought
TO enter the courtroom. The junior
Senator was given a most fatterlng
ovation, and as an evidence OF tho
cordial friendship existing for him In
Abingdon, although this was his first
visit to Washington county, be received
constant stream OF visitors IN MS
room Sunday, and yesterday the Sena-
tor and Judge Rhea were greeted VITA
tremendous applause as they made their
way through the crowd to the stand.
Senator Martin was introduced by
Preston w. Campbell, who was mem
; Der of the late constitutional convention
In beginning his opening speech in the
campaign, Senator Martin said thai 1t
was not his purpose to abuse or de-
nounce any one personally, although 1t
was his right to criticise the acts OF any
public official. Accepting for the sake
OF argument the republican claims
that the present campaign is one with
out an issue except as to what the
administration has accomplished, the
Senator proceed TO discuss Presl-
dent Roosevelt and his "srand pat
policy. Personally, he said, Roosevelt
is a menace to the American people. II
the republicans win it will not be upon
his personality, but upon the policy pu =
sued by his administration. Roosevelt,
the speaker declared, had violated the
constitution in his dealings with both
Panama and the Philippines, and that,
therefore, whoever supported him placed
himself in the attitude of conspirator
against morality and right. The Presi-
dents policy toward Colombia was de-
nounced as being one of robbery and
violation of international integrity. Re-
ferring to the Philippines, Senator Mar
tin said we had no right there, except
such as may have been derived from the
consent of the governed. Roosevelt,
continued the Senator, is a so-called
strenuous President, is warlike,
and will exercise that proclivity when
ever occasion arises, whether the
cause is just one or not. "To
vote for Roosevelt" he empasized.
''you stand pat for war, robbery, and
international dishonor. From day 10 day
Roosevelt is infringing upon the rights
Of other branches of the government, re-
gardless of constitutional authority. He
tramples upon the rights of the legisla-
tive body" In his discussion OF the
tariff Senator Martin ssi6 he was not
against wealth and prosperity, but he
opposed government that perpetuated
monopolies that rob the young men OF
the country of indivsdual opportunities.
In conclusion, he denounced the Presi-
dents methods in taking Mr.. Cortelyou
from a Cabinet position to place upon
him the management of the campaign.
He said that such gross indelicacy
stamped Mr.. Roosevelt as a man not ht
to be President.
Judge Rhea preceded the Senator in an
able speech. The two will speak the
present week in Giles, Russell, Wise,
and Lee counties, and Senator Martin
will conclude his tour in Southwest
Virginia by speaking in Bristol mex
Saturday night.

THE PERSISTENT ADVERTISER

Advertising is always an interesting
alive to its Importance. The Louisville
Courier journal, the journal which that
has made famous, says that a publica-
ton most literally patronized by ad-
it's space, and refuses to print at any
price such advertisements as it does not
care to handle. tells manufacturers and
dealers that it wishes advertisements
of such goods as will interest it's read
ers. and adds:
1T wants such advertising on a per-
manent basis. 1t has no time or space
for the experimental or spasmodic ad-
vertiser.
IF you want to advertise Just once
or twice just to see what happens. don't
come to the -. For the probabilities
are that nothing in particular will hap
pen.
There is no reason under the sun
why people should answer the first adj
vertisement of yours they see.
You may be an old concern but to
them you are absolutely new.
They are now buying of somebody
else the article you sell. They will
make a change only when convinced Of
the wisdom of such course
You can't expect to convince them
with one advertisement. nor with two.
But if your goods and your prices
are right. you can convince them in
time.
''The first advertisements will con-
vince some people. Then every addi-
tional advertisement will convince ad-
ditional advertisement will convince
more people-many more than any pre-
vious advertisement. Every advertise
ment carries. the influence Of all it's
predecessors If you keep it up contin-
uously and intelligently. it's only
question of time when you'll have all
the trade you're entitled to. and that's
all the trade anybody ever gets-and
holds"

UNDEMocRATic DEMOCRACY

Those who have been keeping in
touch with the entanglements Of DEM
ocratic national politics are watching
with interest the outcome of the fight
Bryan is rubbing up for the party at
St Louis. There are some principles
OF democratic politics that seem queer
ly out of harmony with the claims that
1t is the party Of the people and chief
OF these is the two-thirds majority
and unit rule propositions that prom
Use at this time to create disturbance
in the st. Louis convention.
The recent democratic convention in
New York ordered that the seventy
eight delegates which it named to go
to the st. Louis convention shall vote
as a unit This is common demo-
cratic practice and In connection with
the two-thirds rule that obtains in
democratic conventions is productive Of
results that are strangely undemo-
cratic.
Some Of the strange results have
been figured out by a current exchange
in this way.
The st. Louis convention will con-
sist Of 9s6 delegates. a two-thirds ma
jarity of which will be SCI. Now the
delegates from the following states
number 66s. The six New England
states. New York. Pennsylvania. NIL

Michigan. Minnesota, Missouri. New
Jersey, Wisconsin. North Carolina. Ala

president and vice president. thus. IS
delegates can determine how the whole
g Pennsylvania's So delegates shall
vote. and - delegates can determine
how the whole Of Illinois 81 delegates
shall vote. and 20 on. y
Observe. too. that nearly all the
states mentioned are safely republt-
cnn. Present Indications are that It is
from these states that much OF Judge
rarker's Atrength at st. Louis will be
Derived, although there is no prospect
that he would be able to carry half a
dozen OF them should he be nominated
These states. under the unit rule have
the power to bring about Judge Park
er's nomina ton. but are practically
powerless, with the exception OF Ave or
six to deliver single electoral vote.
While bare one-third can dictate
the nomination in that way they can In
another way thwart the will Of the ma
3ority by standing out boldly under
the two thirds rule and defeating theil
candidate. This Bryan hopes to do ir

means defeat Parker for nomination
