the best lecturer on the American
platform.
I'm character he has always been
independent and aggressive. Jefferson,
the father of Democracy, fought war
in the Mediterranean. Jackson, the
idol of Democracy conducted a war in
Florida against Spain on his own pri-
vate responsibility. The Democrats
took the great Northwest from Eng
land, bought the Mississippi valley
from France, annexed Texas and con-
quered the Pacific coast. The Repub-
licans or their progenitors opposed
these things.
THE Democrats had fifty years of
power. That was the old-time De-
mocracy. The Republicans of to-day
have succeeded the old-time Democ-
racy in policy and in power. If there
are any Democrats who read history
and who feel bad over this change it
will do their hearts good to hear Hob
son. He is a Democrat of the old
time, Thomas Jefferson and Hickory
Jackson type.
THE American people love a fight
ing leader. The only non military man
the Republicans ever ran for President
was beaten. With fighting leader
the Democrats can win any day. Hob
sons independence of character is
shown by the way he entered politics.
After the war his eyes were bad and
he wanted to get on the retired list.
Bankhead was said to oppose it. Hob
son resigned from the navy and came
down after Bankhead in his own dis
trict.
HE raced Bankhead for Congress,
and came within an ace of beating
him. He was made a presidential cleo
tor from Alabama, and Bankhead has
trouble ahead for him for the next
election. Hobson is the chief worker
for the navy amongst Naval Academy
graduates in civil life. He has done
the navy much more good as a lecturer
than he could have done it by re-
naming naval officer. Socially Hob
son is an excellent comrade: he is in
for any kind of fun or sport and fond
OF society. He is easy to meet, a good
conversationalist and as light-hearted
as a school boy"

Sicily and that there is a widespread
superstition here that it is the duty
of the people to protect criminals. 1t
