have oundered the clear call to the true faith of pOpu
lar sovereignty on which the republic founded by
which it has been maintained and through which tmust
be perpetuated
'sIt is the voice of Democrat Of statesman of a
leader who at crisis when such service seemed most
lacking and most needed has risen up to stay the
ship of strange gods and conduct the people back to
the true altar of free government, the constitution
1T is always as the sound American the cearhead-
ed and trained juris that Judge Parker applies the
measure Of constitution to the problems confront
ing the country
Commenting Judge Parker's announcement that
he will not be candidate for denomination if elected
Mr. Watterson says:
If Judge Parker had opened his lips say
than this he would have established strong claim to
the confidence Of the American people for more than
anything else save return to the government of the
constitution limiting the of such officials the
President to one Many of the evils which the
foundation of institutions are directly attributable to
lack Of such limitation, and long there is such
lack and as long human human nature these
evils must continue and multiply. No man in his heart
of hearts better realize than he who is Judge Park
er's opponent in the present campaign"

form with Hon G. E. Castle, Of Wagner. On the fol-
lowing day Hon. John r. Thomas, able political war
horse and veteran Of many campaigns, will tell the

Sebert's frank face betrayed his
surprise at the complaisance. but he
gave his pledge and his thanks with
what courtliness he could muster, and
releasing his passive prisoner, pushed

the old cniht. Yet he was not SO

Keeping Voters from Polls.

Some years ago an Englishman,
when travelling in Spain, fell In with a
member OF the rational parliament
who opposed the government. There
had been a dissolution Of parliament
and the Englisnman asked the Span
lard II he would be reelected. "Oh.
no. he said. there is not chance OF
it" Presently they arrived at the
principal town OF this gentleman's
constituency and he received a regu-
lar ovation on his way to the hotel.
Surely" said the Englishman. you
are mistaken: you seem extremely
popular here" "Oh, yes" was the
reply. II am very popular. but won't
get In. nevertheless. .How will the
government prevent your getting in?"
was the rejoinder. "Oh. they have
all kinds of methods, will tell you
one They will FIX a polling place in
such and such barn A large and
very fierce mastiff Is kept there and
when any one likely to vote for me
makes his appearance they will let the
beast loose.
