No New Party.

Both MIR. Bryan and Mr.. Heart deny
the report that they are thinking of Or
ganizing new party; their intention is
merely to roorganize the democratic
party, A year ago the Cleveland wing
was to do the organizing; now it is the
Bryan wing, The result in 1908 prom
Uses to be about the same that il was
this year. Certainly, however, it can
be no worse. Mr.. Bryan and Mr.,
Hearst can render the party a good SER
vice and we suppose they will do it.
If they pick mp q club, however, and
swing it, forty years in the wilderness
will be the result.
The News publishes statement from
Mr.. Bry an; also one from Judge Park.
err Attention is merely directed &c
them because they are of more thar
passing interest. What effect they
will have on the future of the party, il
a subject hardly worth considering
now Two years hence the outlook fol
democracy may be more inviting to {
democrat. At present it il II howlins
desert into which the party looks.

Mr.. CIeYeland,s Power.

The Washington Post refers to form
err President Cleveland as the rock on
which the people can lean, in some
comments on his recent speech. "This
man." says the Post, presents the
most remarkable spectacle in the his
tory of modern politics. The ovation
he received in New York last Friday
night exceeded in significance and i'm
pressiyeness any similar demonstration
in the annals of the republic-c certainly
any that has occurred within the past
eighty or ninety years. We have never
regarded Mr. Cleveland as great man.
His strength, his integrity of purpose,
his indomitable courage we recognize,
of course. But he has not been the
prime mover in any important national
event. He has not appeared at the
psychological moment In any national
crisis or emergency. Inthe third year
of his first administration he declared
himself as the prophet of purely eco
nomic gospel, and in the second year of
his last administration he encountered
defeat. He has figured in no tre-
mendous tragedy such as the revolu-
ton of 1916 or the civil war of 1861.
He has encountered no such tragedies
as those in which Andrew Jackson
played au heroic part, nor does any
thing in his public character compare
with the tremendous drama that Zach
airy Taylor himself a southern man
he took the secession movement of his
day by the throat and choked it into
helplessness. And yet, without having
flashed in war or controlled any sensa
tional emergency, Mr.. Cleveland holds
the respect, the confidence, the magma
ton of his fellow citizens as no man
with the exception of Abraham Lin
coin, has since the time of Andrew
Jackson. The people believe in him
Party lines waver and melt and disap
pear under his amazing influence. L
is inexplicable, but it is fact which
can not be ignored. Had the demo
cracy been wise enough to nominate
him as their candidate, not all tn
power of the embattled government
reinforced by the persuasive eloquenc
of the Roots, the Lodges and the Tafts
l could have prevented his election by a.
overwhelming majority. He may no
be the peoples hero-as heroes go
but he is their rock, their refuge, an,
their citadel.

Halloween Party.

Last Monday evening many spooks
in carriages were seen en- route to j.
H. Bowman s, where the spacious home
was beautifully decorated. The shades
to the lights were corn husks, and
autumn leaves were every where. All
sorts and varieties OF spooks were pres
ent, even to two ''Mauds," with long
drawn hanging heads and outstanding
ears. After the crowds gathered a
specter announced the rules of the
game for the evening, and the game of
drive whist began. Fifteen hands were
played, the changes being rung by a
bell hung on corn stalk. The pump
kin lanterns were artistically decorated,
being cut with patterns chrysan-
themums and leaves. When fifteen
games were over the unmasking fol-
lowed, and many were the surprises to
see who was ones nearest friend.
Refreshments were served in corn
husk trays, three of these being fasten-
ed to plate edged with corn husks.
Salad, escolloped oysters, sandwiches,
celery, parched field corn and coffee
were served. After supper the prizes
were awarded, Mrs. T. E. Matson win
ming the first prize, an ear of corn in
the husk which opened showing beau
tiful pack of cards in book case. Mrs.
Allen Harris won the club prize, q
"Poster Girl" and Mrs. Frank Evans
pumpkin lantern, "The gobelins will
get each other, " and a package Of stick
candy.
The affair was success in every par
ticular, every thing being done by host
and hostess for the enjoyment of their
guests. When, at late hour, they de-
parted for home all felt that it had been
an evening well spent, and were in o
mood to laugh at the tricks which had
been played in the streets, even though
they INSTRUCTED their homeward pas
sage. There were too many present to
give list

WILL YOU HELP?

Are you interested in improving
Science Hill campus? 1t is not worth
while to call your attention to the rug
ged and uncouth appearance of the
front bank, and the th-trap entrance
to the grounds. These are familiar
sights to all our citizens, and unfortu
nately to those who pass through the
city on the Southern trains. It's an
eyesore and should no longer be toler-
ated. A few hundred dollars will build
q substantial rock wall along Roam

to the authorities and they met with
their approval. Col, 7. e. Matson will
make sketch of the desired improve
ments, and we have undertaken to raise
the necessary amount of money by
popular subscription from a philan'

duly acknowledged. We only want

Consumption

Salt pork is a famous old
fashioned remedy for con-
sumption. "Eat plenty of
pork, " was the advice to the
conSumptive SO and Ioo
years ago.
Salt pork is good if a man
can stomach it, The idea
behind it is that fat is the
food the con8umptive needs
most.
Scott'S EmulsioniSthem
ern method of feeding fat to
the consumptive. Pork is too
rough for sensitive Stomach8.
SCOTS Emulsion is the most
refined of fats, especially
prepared for easy digestion.
Feeding him fat in this
way, which is often the only
way, is half the battle, but
SCOTS Emulsion does more
than that. There is some
thing about the combination
of codliver oil and hypopho8-
phiteS in SCOTS Emulsion
that puts new life into the
weak parts and has a special
action on the diseased lungs.
