EVIDENCE OF GiSCORD.

strange conditions are now prevailing
IN the Democratic party in Virginia.
The constituents of Senator Daniel at
ms home precint in Campbell county
and also In his home city, Lynchburp.
declined to send him as g delegate to
she State convention, which is to meet
at Roanoke. And the Hon. Carter Glass
came within seven votes of being de-
feated as delegate at large to the
State convention from his home city.
Lynchburg. He was opposed by man
Who Is comparatively unknown in the
politics of the State. Another strange
thing was the refusal of the Democrats
OF Winchester to send the Hon. EVELYN
Byrd as delegate to the State conven-
ton. Winchester is the home city of
MIR. Byrd, and he represented it in the
last Legislature, and was made Speaker
OF the House of Delegates.
These Incidents can be taken as evil
dences of discord in the ranks of the
Virginia Democracy. When such prom
lnent leaders as these are either turned
down or discounted by their home con-
sttuents, it is plain proof that there
are quiet struggles going on for control
OF the party by opposing factions. The
TACT that Senator Daniel has, since his
defeat at home, been elected delegate
from Pittsylvania county to the conven-
ton, and that the Democrats of Fred
erick county have made Mr.. Byrd a
delegate from that county, is further
proof of a quiet but bitter factional
fight.

exPounded to the people. These news
papers also announce their firm eonvic-
ton that Mr.. Bryan will lead his party
again to disaster. But. strange to say.
they all seem resolved to pin their sup
port to the teacher of false doctrines.
and to his hopeless cause. Their excuse
rs that they must do so because he is
the candidate of their party. What
party ? Surely not the party of Jeffer-
son. but party that advocates nothing
our Democratic contemporaries believe
IN. How futile to call upon the Demo-
cracy 20 Repent and Recant" while
you continue to help the deluded masses
uphold Mr.. Bryan and his false doc
times. In an effort to preserve their
regularity, these newspapers are push
ing the masses so far away from true
Democratic principles and policies that
they will never be able to repent and
recant.

WHICH MOST SsNSIBLE2

The Norfolk Virginian-Pilot, in a
sneering editorial on the certain nomi-
nation of Taft at the Chicago conven-
ton, says
The unanimity will be superficial.
the enthusiasm will be stimulated: but
none of Taft's rivals will receive even
perfunctory support. 1t will be a love
feast to which the partakers will bring
bitterness Of spirit and crashing of
teeth. Nevertheless, they will swallow
their physic with pretense that Apples
Of Sodom are just the fruit thew most
longed for
The Virginian-Pilot must have been
thinking about the Democrats and their
actions and feelings at the Denver con-
vention while writing the above. But
II Its thoughts were really directed to
the Republicans while in convention at
Chicago, it could have been more profit
ably employed Investigating its own
hoe of conduct, motives and feelings in
connection with the candidacy and GER
tam nomination of Mr.. Bryan. Our
Norfolk contemporary does not pretend
20 conceal its disgust for Mr.. Bryan as
the Democratic candidate, and has pro-
claimed that the medicine it is taking is
nauseating; and, yet, from desperate
prejudice and fear of the masses of its
party, 1t takes the nauseating, deadly
dose without making a graceful pre-
tense that it is agreeable.

Americas Four Grand Haryests.
philadelphia Press. }

AS product for export, cotton is the
best which America produces. 1t brings
oaek to this country more money than
any other one commodity. But even 80.
cotton is not king. Corn is the great
American staple, and it is worth almost
twice over in dollars as much as anv
crop which is grown.
Hay and cotton run a close race for
second place, the former having a big
lead last year, while cotton won bv
SIPS, 900, 900 in 1906. The farmers Of
the United States cut a hay crop last
year valued at s744,OO0, 900. The wet
days OF May make it seem quite certain
that the Forthcoming harvest will ex-
ceed that by great many millions.
The Agricultural Department reports
show that in the past five years the
average value of Americas four lead
ing farm products were: Corn, 81, O6S.-
OOO, 900; cotton, 1851, 600, 900; hay, S547.-
OOO, 900, and wheat, SAT-, 900, 600.
When it is remembered that widely
nIiterent quantities of commingled sun
SHINE and rain are required to bring
perfection in these four mighty crops.
the size and diversity of American har-
vests are nothing short of marvellous.
A country that can do these things is
ne land for pessimists.

Cold. Blooded HeroIsm.
Chicago Record-Herald)

There are heroes and heroes. those
who risk their lives in war. those who
take desperate chances to save the
lives of others, those who sacrifice
themselves in unceasing toll for de-
pendents, those who subject themselves
TO fearful hazards to accomplish some
noble purpose for all mankind. As
the acts are different. so are the quail
ties that enable people to perform
them. But an admirable courage is
necessary in all cases, whether it is
aroused suddenly in some emergency
or invoked for some long trial that de-
mands what may be called a cold
blooded heroism.
Illustrations of the latter type are
afforded by persons who offer their
own bodies and lives for experimental
use in medical science. AS a general
thing, it is physician who does this.
Within two weeks one of them has in
Jected teaspoonful of lobelia into his
veins to prove that it is not poisonous.
such acts ought to raise the medical
profession greatly in the admiration
ana respect of everybody. Physicians,
however, are not the only heroes in
this class. The world can never repay
the debt of gratitude it owes to Lady
Wortiey Montague, who, in order to
popularize incubation at time when
1t was regarded as suicidal folly. sub
mitted herself and her children to the
operation. A recent case was that of
private soldier, who demonstrated
that yellow fever was not contagious
by locking himself up in a shanty for
two weeks with the clothing and bed
ding Of yellow fever patients who had
died of the disease.

If one feels dull and spiritless, in the
spring or early summer, they call it
Spring Fever. But there is no fever
usually. 1t is the after effect of our
winter habits. The nerves are mostly
at fault. Tired WORKOUT nerves leave
US languid, lifeless, and without
spirit or ambition. A few doses of DIR.
Shops Restorative will absolutely and
quickly change all of these depressing
symptoms. The Restorative of course
won't bring you back to full health in a
day or two, but it will do enough in AZ
hours to satisfy you that the remedy is
reaching that tired spot. Druggists
everywhere are advising its use as a
splendid and prompt general tonic. It
gives more vim and more spirit to the
spoonful than any other known nerve
or constitutional tonic. It sharpens
failing appetite, aids digestion, frees
sluggish livers and kidneys, and brings
new life, strength and ambition. Test
t few days and be convinced.

WILL THEY REPENT AND REcAN1 ?

In another column we reproduce from
the Norfolk Virginian-Pilot an editorial
which treats of the necessity for re-
pentance and recanting on the part of
the present day Democracy. 1t is a
strong arrangement of the modern De-
mocracy for the heresies it is irving to
impose upon the people under the title
of JeffersOnian Democracy.
If Republican newspaper had pub
lished such an unanswerable statement
of facts and truths about the theories
and practices of the new Democracy. if
would be denounced as a Republican
lie. But when it comes from such an
ultra Democratic paper, of the Jeffer-
sonian school, as the Virginian- Pilot.
what intelligent Democrat will dare to
dispute and disprove the assertions of
our Norfolk contemporary
The Virginisn-Pilot and nearly all the
Democratic daily papers in Virginia are
Disguised with the Democracy of Mr..
Bryan. They claim, and show, that he
is st war with every fundamental prin-
ciple which the father of Democracy

DEMOCRATIC PARTY OUTLOOK.

Tamil W LOUk.
In communication today Mr.. J. H.
Lane says he cannot tell from reading
The News Leader whether this newsl
paper tavors or opposes Mr. Bryan as
the Democratic nominee for president.
We do not wonder at Mr.. Lanes be-
wilderment. The News Leader hardly
knows itself where it is at. Our atti-
tude is one of resignation to the newt
able. What we can't cure we must en-
dure. Governor Perry, of South Caro-
lima, fought secession bitterly and spoke
and worked against it at the conven-
ton OF his State in 1861. The majority
against him was overwhelming, deter
mined and uucompromising, and when
the decisive vote was taken, he said:
well, you are all going to the devil
and l suppose III have to go with YOU. &"
The point of this story is in the applica-
ton thereof. Richmond News Leader.
So, our esteemed Richmond contem-
porary has determined to go to hell that
1t may keep in touch with its party.
This is a wonderful self-martyrdom.
and would be admirable if it were actu-
ated by principle. But the News Lead
er, in the editorial from which the
above extract is taken, admits: ''The
Democratic party is weak now because
1t has strayed away from principles. &"
And in another part of the editorial it
declares:
Our purpose is to help get the Dem
ocratlc party through with as little
damage and decentralization as possible.
and especially to hold the organization
together here in Virginia.
Perhaps this determination of the
News Leader to go with its party to the
devil Is a new scheme it has Matched up
for etfecting reforms in the morals of
the Virginia Democracy, on which lines
it has been so earnestly engaged re-
Gently. This is new idea, reforming
men and political parties in hell; but it
is not bad one for the Virginia De-
mocracy. 1t has long since been demon
strated that there is no earthly power
that can reform it.
We fear our Richmond contemporary
has undertaken the impossible task of
serving two masters. 1t will have to
cease its efforts to reform political
morals in Virginia or abandon its de-
clared intention of going to the devil
with the Democratic organization. If
IL should remain firm in its purpose to
follow the organization, its sacrifice will
be fruitless. His satanic majesty will
keep such a close watch on the fellows
VINO run the machine here that they
Will be unable to play any of their cleo
tion tricks in hades. If, however, the
devil should allow them to get control
OF his election machinery they would
count him out. Then with the proud
motto; Party service is a badge of
honor, they would gather the faithful
tribe" and run things to suit them
selves, just as they have been doing in
Virginia for many years.
