This is the day of triumphant de-
mocracy. The Denver convention has
a good cause and good candidates,
and the democratic party will not oh'y
have the support of the regular dem
ocrats," but of American citizens who
believe in the first principles of Ameri-
canism. The republican platform has
disguised many voters who might
have accepted Taft as an independent
candidate. They cannot subscribe to
the doctrines Of the platform They
must either refrain from voting OIL
vote with their consciences instead OF
with their party. A vote with con
science viii be vote for the candi
date of the democratic party.

are not getting away with all of the
spoil, and that there are women who

tically all wealth is public in its origi-
nal sources, even If custom and the
eomplacence of the public permits

that some women as well as men are
in the way of the golden food
Hetty Green is one conspicuous ex-
ample, and she has been known for
some time as the richest woman in
the world. But now comes a report
of another rich woman, hitherto I'M
known, who is said to be even richer
than Mrs. Green.
This woman is Mary Elizabeth Jones
of New York city and Cold Spring
Harbor Long Island. She does not
say how much she is worth. and If is
doubtful ii she knows or if anybody
knows the extent of her riches. But
she admits that she owns and pays
taxes on land in every school district
on Long Island, and in every state of
the union except Texas.
The property Immediately surround

Spring Harbor, where she lives in sum

husband, Dr. Livingston Jones, is also

owns property in nearly every city in

valued at million.

ROOSEVELT Royalties

It seems Likely that while the troops
are fighting nobly at Pine Camp the
real honors in strategy are being won
at Oyster Bay whence come reports OF
engirdling lines of magazine publish
ers and offers of dollar a word for
Rooseyeltian accounts of bIg-game
hunting in Africa.
A dollar word was the price paid
for nine chapters of an unfinished
Disrael novel twenty years after tie

Conan Doyle resurrected Sherlock
Holmes after having thrown him over
cliff. Richard Harding Davis is said
To have commanded somewhere and
somehow, 40 cents a word, which is

according to author gossip, can sell
a 25-cents-a-word story any time
AS for the drawers of royalties on

there is no use figuring on a word
basis. How these petty princes of
literature would scorn, if they knew
about them, the $3.50 received by
Charles Reade for the American use
of Put Yourself in His Place" the
$500 which went SINH airy to Thack-
cry for Henry Esmond' and the tri-
butes of 500 for Adam Bede" and
$500 for "Silas Mariner" afforded by
Yankee publishing thrift to George
Eliot.
However, says the New York World,
apart from consideration Of what COM
pensation other masters of the pen
have won, the grateful fact made plain
concerning the author at Oyster Bag
is that his seven years and more of
"a perfectly corking time" in standing
the federal government on it's head
have not taken from the value of his

the principles Of the democratic party
over those of the republican and the
more widespread recognition of this
truth.
Second. The personal equation. OF
the two men he is Infinitely more pop
ular, possesses a much more attractive
personality and is much better known
to the country at large than Mr.. Taft
Third. He will go before the coun-
try on a platform that is a platform.
On reform measures that the pubic
has elamored for. the platform, and he
as its exponent, stand committed.
There is no willy-nilly. wishy-washy
treatment of any subject chat is live
one before the American nation.
Fourth. Theodore Roosevelt. the
most popular man to date who has
ever occupied the white house. has
taught even the republican party that
Bryan is not "radica'" of the type
of which he has in past campaigns
been pictured. by adopting many OF
the identical reform measures that
Mr.. Bryan has advocated, and which
measures largely are now missing
from the republican platform, notwith-
standing popular belief in them.
Fifth. Thousands of American vot-
ers are now hungry because of a re
publican panic.
Sixth. Mr. Bryan is a much bigger,
much ADLER, less fantastic man than
he was twelve years ago and the pub
lie knows this.
Seventh. The people believe in
him.

A MARRIAGE

The good people of Georgia must be
a bit old-fashioned, in some things at
least, for they still believe the mar
riage ceremony means what it says
it means. The word obey has not
been cut from the girls part of the
obligations, and when the young man,
on his part, promises to cherish her"
he is actually expected to cherish her.
Through a failure to understand this
very out of date code, young man of
the new thought school came near
getting himself into difficulties a few
days since, says the Washington Post
Perhaps he had voiced his opinions on
matrimony a bit too early. or perhaps
his prospective father-in-'aw sub.
scribed to a modern newspaper and
knew few things on his own account.
AT any rate, while the parson was
waiting in the front room with the
book in his hand the old gentleman
took the bridegroom out into the
woodshed, or Whereabouts.
Now young man." he is quoted as
saying, IF you mistreat ny daughter,
III kill you. If you can't support her,
she can come back home But you
can't. If you do, I'll run you of the
place with a shotgun"
That was too much for the bride
groom. He faded away" as the coy
ote sinks off from his prey at sun
rise. Indeed, he saw a great light, too.
He would have TO cherish and support
that girl, just as he was about to
promise he would, or settle with the
old man
It was terribly old-fashioned in the
girls father, no doubt, and possibly a
little high-handed. But it probably
saved the girl a good deal OF unhappi-
ness. Also it may have discouraged
the young mans new thoughts about
the marriage tie being a very easy
to get into and about as easy to get

R, E. Morrison of Prescott IN
burdens Himself to a Wash
ington Post Man,

The following from the Washington
Post indicates that R. f. Morrison of
Prescott is seeing things'-political-
ly:
Robert E. Morrison of Prescott,
Ariz.. who headed a delegation last
year to Washington to protest against
the Joint statehood of New Mexico and
Arizona, was at the Ebbitt House last
night. Mr.. Morrison said the people
of his territory were much pleased
with the plank in the repub' lean plat.
form declaring for the admission to
statehood of Arizona as a separate
state. He said he believed the demo
Gratis also would insert such plank
in their platform, though he did not
place so much stress upon this action
on the part of the democrats. since he
thoroughly believes in the coming vic
tory of the republicans at the polls.
Taft is gaining strength every
day." said Mr.. Morrison, emphatically.
During the last month i have trav-
eled through the west, in Wyoming,
Michigan, Montana and other states.
and also | have been in New York.
Everywhere Taft is gaining ground.
The business men of the country be-
lieve he is a safe, conservative man,
and viii give him their support. Of
course, out in Arizona we cannot have
so great an interest in the national
ELECTION as in the states, for we have
no vote as is the case with the people
of the District of Columbia,
But. despite the fact that for the
past twenty-five years Arizona has
sent democratic delegates 10 congress,
make the prediction that, if Arizona
is admitted as a state, it will be re-
publican. l make this prediction be
cause of the small majority which the
democrats have maintained recently
over their republican opponents.

only By 400 votes. | mention this
fact merely to illustrate how loose is
the grasp of the democrats upon the
situation and a determined assault by
the republicans, especially if Arizona

cans are in the ascendancy in con
gress. may change the situation con

WILLIAM J. BRYAN.

The voice of the people in one of the
preliminary skirlnishes of the inpend-
ing battle of ballots has been heard
and the voice in loud acclaim presents
the name of Bryan. Though twice
defeated he has again been made the
candidate of his party. For several
months past this result has seemed
inevitable yet there were those in the
party who fought on, hoping to over
come the Nebraskans strength with
the people-his only means OF power
and the only just means of power any
man can have.
Bryan's magnetic personality OF top
of an ability that is consummate have
succeeded in accomplishing what Taft
could accomplish On'y by the use of
the Roosevelt big stick" and the we'll
creased political pie machinery of the
republican party. In popular strength
Bryan looms above Taft as a mountain
above sand DUNE The republicans
sneeringIy endeavor to refer to the
Denver convention as another steam
roller" ridden affair and to Bryan as
a dictator 1t is true that the Bryan
desire was the only consideration OF
the convention and that Mr.. Bryan did
