Joseph H. Manley of the national
Republican committee lives in Angus
ia, and in an Augusta Etore the other
day he had an odd experience.
Mr.. Manley entered this store to
buy an umbrella for the cashier of
the Augusta Savings bank, of which
he is president. An agreeable and
eloquent clerk fastened to look after
him.
Good morning, Mr.. Marley; an um.
brella?" said the clerk. well, l am
sure we can suit you in an umbrella
nicely.
He ran his hand over the umbrellas
on the counter, and, selecting one at
random, he opened it, and said:
Nov here is an umbrella that is
an umbrella. The silk is rich and
heavy and durable. The handle of
cherry is simple and in good taste.
The man who carries an umbrella
like this n can't go wrong"

Marley. THAT is my umbrella, l

WANTS ANOTHER FIGHT.
eoldfeld Man Anxious to Match Cans
n Nelson Again.

San Francisco, Cal, Sept. 13.-"Tex'
Richard of Goldfeld has offered an
other $4,000 purse to Cans and Nelson
for a fight to take place in Goldfeld in
January. Richard offers to make two
bets. He expressed his willingness to
wager $4,000 that Cans cannot defeat
Nelson in twenty rounds and another
$4,000 that Nelson can defeat any
white man now in the ring. 1t is pos
sible that Jimmy Britt will want to
take on the last offer, while Manager
Jim Coffroth might go after it with
Willie Fitzgerald.

'blacked" by a patient who was under
the influence Of gas.
The patient vas a brawny dock la
borer. 1t was found necessary to ex-
tract four or his teeth, and the opera

from the chair and violently attacked

PURE FOOD LAW ENFORCEMENT.

The preparations for the enforce
ment of the pure food law are impress
sing both the authorities and manufac-
turers with the fact that many of Its
provisions are of more far.reaching eff
feet than supposed at the time Of
enactment, butrthe commission speci,
ally charged with administration, does
not propose to enforce IL at the outset
in a manner to e and disturb legiti-
mate business unnecessarily. The COM
missions preliminary work has been
directed with a purpose to distinguish
the class that has been producing n
selling goods under false names and
that depend for their trade upon the
public, which ignorantly supposes the
articles placed in its hands to be other
than they are. Against all such the
rigor of the law and the energy of the
administration will be directed.
The great body of dealers and manu-
~facturers will therefore be treasured
by the manner in which the commits
sion is proceeding under the wide dis
%Cretionary powers of the law. 1t is not
content merely with celebrating with
extreme cars a body of eighty rules,
covering almost the whole field of food
supply, but In order to secure a Just
and rational system has invited all
the interests affected to thorough con
sideration and criticism, with a view
to any modification that will better
harmonize the convenience of business
with public policy. The new law in
deed will make radical changes in the
general methods of business as 1t was
intended to do, but its drastic remedies
are to be applied, especially at the out
set, to fragrant and systematic offend
ers, against the public health and COM
meroial morality. g.
While the general business public
has u,reason to be treasured, those
against whose abuses the law is aimed
are naturally taking alarm as the time
draws zeal for the law to go into eff
feet, The tremendous effort to defeat
or emasculate the measure in its pro
gress through congress has been con
tinued before'th the commission to secure
administrative regulations by which
the law could be evaded and the very
frauds. which its central purpose is to
destroy, root and branch, could, In
part at least, still be perpetrated. Such
interests. though their plots have fail
ed, are as immensely rich and power
full as they are utterly INSCRIPTIONS,
the very essence Of their business be
ing immoral, and the commission is
aware that every known to
predatory wealth will be exhausted in
the courts and elsewhere to annul and
weaken the enforcement of the law on
the lines which have been determined
upon 1t is for this struggle that the
commission, backed by the full power
of the government, is devoting its en-
ergies to prepare, and not for
oppression and undue annoyance of
honest merchants and manufacturers
who are expected to observe the law
in good faith, although there may be
many blunders for a long time. and
who in fact, will cooperate effectually
in bringing fraudulent manufacturers
to justice.-Omeha Bee.

make what time it is? None what

desire to know what time it is at
tacks you every few hours. The light

THE editorial from Bryan S
Commoner published in this issue
contains much food for thought.
We disagree in part with its
argument. In our opinion ,he re-
nomination of Roosevelt is as
good as assured. His disincllnation
to run will not in our opinion
figure very high in the face of the
apparently almost unanimous
demand for his cane idacy. Even
great men are in a manner bound
to defer to great public scnti
ment crystallized in the action
ot convention. But. when
Roosevelt is candidate, where
fore should the democracy desert
what it knows to be right1 Let
us hope that we will have one
presi Dental campaign when both
the nominees of the great parties
are men of character so high
as to make the result peoples

vote and the conservative repub-
licans would be lett to put up a
candidate of their own and thus
divide the republican strength to
the advantage of the democrats.
But let us consider what is
probable. There is no radical
republican to succeed the Presl-
dent. Senator LaFollette would
be his natural successor IT Mr..
Roosevelt's ideas controlled the
republican &C invention, but the re-
publican party is not yet ready
to nominate a man like LaFol-
lette. The republican leaders
would not countenance his candi-
dacy in 1908, although the La
Toilette element in the rePubli
can party is bound to grow. The
only question is whether the re-
publicans will nominate some out
spoken opponent of Roosevelt
ism or select compromise cahdi-
date with the idea of keeping
both elements together. 1t an
anti. Roosevelt man is nominated,
the democrats may expect large
support from the Roosevelt re-
publicans, provided, of course,
the party SO conducts itself as
to deserve the confidence OF re-
publican reformers. If the re-
publican convention nomlnates
compromise man not entirely
satisfactory to either side, his
campaign is likely to be as listless
a campaign as the democratic
campaign Of 1904.
From the standpoint. therefore,
OF expediency as well as from the
standpoint of principle the demo-
cratic party must make cour-
ageous fight in behalf of neces-
sary reforms and take advantage
of the education which has come
through the radical utterances of
the president. The conservatives
went into the last convention
promising victory and pointing
to two democratic defeats as a
reason why they should be en-
trusted with the party leadership.
They can not make that argu
ment this time, tor they led the
party to an overwhelming defeat
in the east as we'll as in the west.
The conservatives can help win a
democratic victory if they are
to follow and support those who
have advocated reforms. They
have demonstrated their inability
to lead the party to success along
conservative lines. Their plans
were a failure in 1904, and there
has been an immense develop
ment of radical sentiment since.
1t is folly to talk of putting the
democratic party in a position to
appeal to the owners of swollen
fortunes and hnanciers of preda-
tory wealth. 1t would be folly
from the standpoint of exPe-
diency; it would be criminal from
the standpoint of principle

DEMOCRACY MUST MOVE FORWARD.


laying their plans for the capture
of the next democratic conven-
ton. Attention is called to the
matter, not that there is danger
of the plan succeeding but that
the readers of The Commoner
NAV know what is going on. The
argument made two years ago by
the friends of Judge Parker was
that President Roosevelt was un-
satisfactory to the business ele-
ment and that conservative
democrat like Judge Parker would
be able to poll large republican
vote. 1t ought to have been
plain to the party leaders that
candidate conservative enough
to draw corporation republicans
to his support would not be radi-
cal enough to hold the democratic
voters, but it was thought that
liberal campaign contributions
could more than make up for de-
fection among the rank and file.
AS unreasonable as were the ar
guments made, they were sue
cessful, and the democratic party
made an experiment that will not
be repeated, at least for some
years. After the election the
conservative element seemed to
be entirely satisfied to allow the
organization of the party to pass
into the hands of those who be
lieve in positive and aggressive
democracy. AS the campaign
approaches. however, there are
indications that some of the con-
servatives would rather keep the
party in a minority than for it to
take a position on the side of the
people.
The Brooklyn Citizen has an
editorial based upon the possibil'
ity of Mr.. Roosevelt being can
didate again, which suggests thai
the next democratic convention
may take the conservative side
against the radicalism Of the presi-
dent. The democrats may as well
recognize the situation and pre-
pare for it. In the first place,
there is no probability or prospect
of the president being candidate
again. He has SO announced, and
it is only fair to him to take him
at his word. Even if he desired
to be nominated, he would have
difficulty in securing nomination.
There is division in the repub
lican party, and that division ex-
tends from the top of the party to
the bottom. Mr.. Roosevelt's
radicalism has displeased the re-
publican leaders, and his last
message has very much aggravated
the situation. The republicans
who do not favor the presidents S
policies, when supported by the
republicans who earnestly oppose
third term, would be strong
enough to prevent a renomination'
so the thought of his nomination
can safely be put aside.
Even if he were nominated, it
would not be good policy for the
democrats to plan conservative
campaign. If Mr. Roosevelt were
candidate, it would not only be
wise but necessary for the demo.
Gratis to make a radical fight. II
the democratic party were to at,
tempt to attack the president for
endorsing democratic ideas, i,
would lose more democrats than
it could gain republicans. If, on
the other hand, it were to remain
