white men lost their votes Mr.. Gather
also showed that under the operation
OF the Wilson law, elections in certain
! counties become travesties upon popular
government and do not reflect the
honest Will of the voters.
The cry of negro domination, which
was raised by Senator Rayner at the
Democratic meeting last week also
came in for share of attention from
Mr.. Gather. The Republican candi-
date clearly showed in his speech that
the negro question in Maryland is really
no issue at all. He demonstrated that
the cry of negro domination" is
merely the trick Of political demago-
CUES, an appeal to race prejudice and
race passion-a stuffed figure set up by
the Democratic ringsters and pointed to
with horror by party spellbinders to
divert attention from the real issue of
fair elections, which the Democrats
/ fear to meet.
In short, the speech of acceptance
took up in detail the planks in the plat
form and set forth in most vigorous
fashion the issue upon which the candi-
! date will conduct his campaign. 1t
was an example of the breadth of view
which characterize the Republican
nominee, and furnished cogent proof of
Mr.. Gathers comprehensive grasp of
/ governmental needs. 1t was a state
paper in all respects and will strike
responsive chord in the minds of all in
dependents and fire the Republicans
with enthusiasm.
/ The following are the members of
the committee who formally notified
Mr.. Gather of his nomination last
night:

Dear Sir: We should like to print
your opinion of this guarantee in this
paper, where all your neighbors will
see it:
Wen furnish the paint to paint half
the house of any fair man on these
terms: He shall paint the other half
with whatever other paint he likes:
same painter (any fair MANI same way
1.-THE way of all fair painters, to make a
good job). If our half doesn't take less
gallons of paint by one-tenth to seven
tenths, Wen give him the paint. If
our half doesn't take less labor by one
tenth to seven-tenths, Wen give him
the paint. If our half isn't sounder
three years hence, Wen give him the
paint. If our half isn't sounder six
years hence, Wen give him the paint.
Any color.
u We say one-tenth, because there are
D. 40 or three paints with about that diff
ference; we say seven-there are dozens
of paints with about that difference
we say one to seven, because there
hundred that waste one-third of
the money paid for both paint and
labor
Is there paint we haven't covered?

GIVES UP NOMINATION.
ProhibitiOnist Says He Has Been a
Candidate too Often.

One man, at least, in Maryland is big
enough and bold enough to stand up
fearlessly before a nomination for Office
and say, Get thee behind mer' Mr.
William Gisriel, whom the Prohibition
lists wished to make their chief standard
bearer in this campaign, has declined
that honor.
81 have been a candidate too often, /"
he says. Il was a candidate for Gov
ernor before, for Mayor, for President
of the Second Branch of the City Coun-
Gil, for Congress and for judge of the
Orphans Court. 1t is better for the
party that they name a new man this
time
Il am as strong Prohibitionist as
ever: | couldn't be anything else. The
party was never in better shape. Peo-
pie all over the country are beginning
to see that the saloon is not only a
moral evil, but an economic evil also.
It's got to go. But the party ought to
have new man to lead it in this cam
paign."
SO MIR, Gisriel has sent the following
letter to the members Of the notifca-
ton committee:
September "a, 1907.
Messrs. Geo. r. Gorsuch, E. B. Fenly,
James w. Frizzell, Ferd. Groshans,
Edwin Higgins and Joshua Lowering
Centlemen-Thanking you and the
members of the Prohibition Convention
assembled at Mountain Lake for the
great honor you have conferred upon
me for the second time as your standard
bearer for Governor Of our State, after
much prayer and careful thought | find
it VIII be impossible for me to accept
the nomination at this time. AS have
been away from my business for the
past six months, find it will require
all my attention for some time to come.
Again thanking you for your confidence
in me, and wishing you and our cause
every success, | remain, respectfully
yours. WILLIAM GIsRIEL.
The six months absence from which
Mr.. Gisriel refers to was caused by a
trip abroad, from which he has recently
returned:
I'VE went to Egypt, Palestine Con-
stautinople, Italy, Switzerland, Ger
rlaly, Holland, Belgium and Trance, -

saw no country like the United States

-3--zbr-o---- ABOUT CORN BREAD,

"The time is coming, and altogether too fast" remarks The Thomasville Times Enterprise, when sure-enough all due to the fact that modern cooks do not know how to make it." Our contemporary should not lay all the blame on the ignorance or incompe- tency of the cooks. Much of the trou- ble is due to the difficulty of get ting the right kind of materials. Un- der the modern milling methods it is difficult to get corn meal which can be made into good bread, and that Is the main trouble
 Under the old way of grinding corn, especially in the country sections where the old water.mi1ls were used exclusir ely, there was little difficulty about good bread The mlllstones in those old mills revolved slowly, grind ing probably five or six bushels of corn in an hour, and the meal came out comparatively cool, in granular form and full of life. It was easy for the cook to make good bread of such material and they could do it now If they had the same grade of meal to operate with, but they cant get It. not in the cities, at least The mod ern mills are altogether different. With the stones revolving at almost light ming speed, the principal object be- ing to grind as many bushels of corn in a given time as possible, the meal comes out burning hot, ground to fine dust, and not particle of life left in It. It Is impossible to make good corn bread out of such material. and l 1t is not to be wondered at if we sell dom see any. The best workmen can not do good job with inferior ma | terials and 1t Is the same with cooks. And speaking of corn bread reminds
 us of the directions we often find in modern cook books for making it. l Tho many different recipes would drive | a good cook to drink or something worse, and the compounds made by | following them, with all the different materials required will no moro make
 real corn bread than it will make a
 mint julep. When the cook who knows her business can get a really good article of meal she needs noth- ing added to it but water and lit 1 tie salt Then if she Is really up to | her job whether she is the old time 1 colored cook or the white housewife, she will turn out an article that comes as near to being the staff of life as anything that human hands can pro- | duce. In the towns and cities the
 prevalent use of flour. the ease of 1 getting loaf bread and the difficulty of getting good meal has almost made
 good corn bread only memory. For
 all that. there are those in both town and county Who can make it If they
 have the wherewithal to operate with.

NOT ALL SMOOTH sAnINe.

It will not do to take 1t for granted that everybody north of the Ohio is for Roosevelt and a dynasty. Lieutenant refused a position worth s5,000 year, rendered him by the President. He did 1t because he wanted to be free and independent in his support of Speaker Cannon for the Presidency. Tn speech in Chicago on Memorial Day he uttered some words which directly combat the Root. Roosevelt centraliza- ton idea. Among other things he said:
 The police power of the States can- not be lost by failure to use 1t, and in- action does not justify the seizure of that power by Federal authority The crying lawlessness of the age Is the gradual weakening of the legislative branch of the Government We need not denounce the cause. We deplore the fact. The cause may be the per- sonality of its members. It may be the insldious attacks of the executive originally was the strongest and most representative. It is so no longer.
 The Judiciary alore has preserved lawful Is 'if power 1t is not infaili5ie; @ nothing is. It. ought to be secure against political attack by party. It ought to be protected against the as- we'll well as " within it's own Jurisdiction. That full protection, however. can come only from an enlightened and sane public opinion.
 The State governments are powerful agencies to train the citizen to an ap- preciation and understanding of civic duties. either in State or general gov ernment. The State cannot be reduced to a mere outlying Federal province, ment for it's general local welfare
 The suppression of secession by Lin- coin did not mean the abolition of State powers.
 On the same day. at Steubenville Ohio. Senator Foraker in speaking against perpetuating power in one mans hands. said.
 We have been singularly fortunate in always having a patriotic, liberty loving man in the White House. from whom no such danger could be appre- hended, but the time may come when 1t will be different. We cannot hope to always escape misfortune. We must. therefore, reckon against the possibilities. and among them Is al ways the chance that evil days may overtake us in that respect as they have always overtaken other nations.
 We have an object lesson in the ex- perience of Mexico. She is probably more prosperous and happy under Diaz than she could be under anybody else, for he is one of the most marvellous and most successful of the worlds rul- CTS. but so far at least as the choice of her President is concerned. Mexico is no longer a republic, except only in name.
 When In the course of nature Diaz can serve her no longer, she will learn whether she can peaceably return to the methods of orderly succession.
 Every lover of popular government hopes she may, but every student of human history knows she must then encounter a serious peril.
 The average American scouts the idea of any such danger for us. but the average American is so busily oc- cupied with his own affairs that he does not fully realize how many and how dangerous are the abuses of pow CT.
 There is a tremendous Republican sentiment back of these utterances and of course the Democrats heartily en- dorso them

 In his foreword to his readers the editor sets out the scope and design of his publication, which he declares is intended to preach cheerful phil osophy and practice sensible tolera. ton in all matters where beliefs and opinions are likely to clash He also tells us that the primary object heehas In view Is to inspire the South to talk, Q larger interest in literature by offer ing an opening for nearby writers on various subjects.

It is pleasure always to read Of an Alabama newspaper that discards all other aids and expedients and does all of it's own printing at home. The Wilcox Progressive Era. published at Camden by Abner J. Smith Is an all- home print and we feel assured that the result will justify the action of the proprietor in discarding a patent inside. This is a matter, however. for each paper to settle for itself, but we congratulate Editor Smith on the way he has settled it. The Era is a wide awake paper and comes each week full of news and views. The latter Is a very important consideration in the make- up of any paper.

WEDNESDAY, JUNE 5, 1907.
The Washington Herald says:

Senatsr Pettus's fatigue over the Brownsville inquiry is shared by a goodly portion of the American public, we have no doubt. It may be damnum absque injuria, as the venerable Ala bama Senator picturesquely describes it. but it Is certainly a proceeding without a purpose. Nothing that the committee could do would be of the least consequence, even if its findings were adverse to the theory that the negro troops. or some of them. "shot up" the Texas town; and a finding that the President was correctly in formed when he took summary action In the case would hardly serve the ends of those who insisted on having an in vestigation made.
 The country was sick of the whole matter long ago. It is politics and nothing else on Foraker's part, and the entire business should be dumped into the waste heap.

No More Union Beer

Philadelphia Record.
 Strict labor unionists will have to find 8 new tipple or else do violence to the tenets of unionlsm which forbid them to buy any but union made cloth ing and consume any but union made food and drinks. The brewers unions have been thrust out of the American Federation of Labor, and henceforWard there will be no more union" beer. The suggestion that the 2,000, 600 mem- bers of the organized trades "get on the water wagon" sounds well enough, and, unless the fact that water is an "open shop" product, and. therefore, not unionized, be taken as an objection, the following out of this recommenda- tion would effect an enormous saving,
 The cause of the trouble Is curious. The brewers unions have been de- clared hetrodox for the reason that they declined to exclude from membership the teamsters who drive brewery wag- ons and the engineers who run the machinery used in the manufacture of beer. This is contrary to the policy of the Federation to segregate the trades. Since nearly every process In the mak- ing of beer Is conducted with the aid of machinery 1t might be asked, how eVer what constitutes a brewer in the unionist sense? The two or three per sons in a brewery who are familiar with the chemistry and other mysteries of the trade are not Worklngmen in the unionist sense of the word; theirs is a profession. not trade. The great CT number of the hands employed in brewing establishment have as little to do\with the brewing of beer as have the drivers or the manipulators of the ice machines and ether accessories. They clean the vats and wash and bitch the insides of the kegs and fill them with beer. By analogy drawn from other trades all men who work in a brewery would be brewers. The plumbers helper, who melts the lead and runs back and forth for some al ways forgotten tool, is a plumber just inc same Why should the man who drives the machine that blows cold air into the cooling room of a brewery be considered any less a brewer than the man who stands by the brew kettle or than he who rolls barrels into the eel lar?
