defeated by what he claims was mis-
representation to the effect that his
election would hurt business interests,
Chairman Mack Of the Democratic Com

tensive plans to advance the party's
interest during the next four years. Mr..
Mack's statement in part follows:
"There is not much for me to say and
no apologies for me to make relative to
the victory Of the Republican party.
Mr.. Bryan made the most magnificent

Notwithstanding yesterdays vote, the
Democratic party stands more united

There are different varieties of the

can be made to turn in the air and
come back to the place from which it
was thrown that has become famous
This kind of boomerang. however, is
used simply for amusement or for
bringing down birds. In throwing the
weapon it is grasped by n end and
after a short run hurled straight in
front. 1t takes a horizontal position
and revolves rapidly as 1t moves
obliquely upward into the air. After
a time it curves around and comes
back to within q short distance OF the
thrower. The val boomerang is larger
and heavier than that used in hunting.
