vote for Parker and Davis for presi-

State Senator w. P. Barksdale. one
of the electors-at-large in a short
speech said that the college was not
free, as was intended, to vote as its
members might see fit, but must vote
in accordance with the mandates Of the
party. Were he free and untrammeled,
he said ne would not vote for Parker,
but more than $4,000 Democrats of the
state had cast their ballots for him
and he bowed to their will.
IF it was a safe Democracy" he
said. then it was insane. Eighty thou
sand people went to the polls and vot-
ed, while 10000 resented the insult
and management of the campaign by
the men who four years ago turned
their faces on Bryan"
Mr. Barksdale said that Roosevelt
was fast becoming a good Democrat,
and that If he came further down the
road the Democrats would gladly
name him as their standard bearer.
The speaker declared that for one he
would welcome the president into the
Democratic ranks.
