The Old Veterans.

Again the United Confederate
Veterans, grizzled heroes who
fought on many bloody battle6elds
for a loosing cause, are assembled
in annual reunion at Birmingham,
Ala. Death has thinned the ranks
visibly since the general reunion in
Richmond last year, and a hush of
sadness has fallen upon the remnants
Of the vanishing hosts Of the Con-
federacy because of the recent death
in Vicksburg of General Stephen D.
Lee. commander-in. chief of the
United Confederate Veterans. The
conclave, which began Tuesday in
the Magic City will be a time for
recounting past victories and defeats
from which all the Old sectional bit
terness has departed, and for last
greetings and partings between
many of the aged veterans who re-
alize thai on this occasion they may
answer to their last roll call on
earth. Many federal veterans were
present and fraternizing with boys
in gray the enmity between "Yanks"
and "Rebs'', forgotten. The gray
line grows thinner and thinner, and
soon the last Old Confederate Vet
eran will cross over the river to
rest under the shade of the trees
with Lee, Jackson and the host OF
others who made the name of the
Southern soldier immortal, by their
yalor and heroism.

Bryan Will Beat Taft.

Taft is certain to receive the Re-
publican nomination for President
at Chicago this month, and he is
equally certain to be defeated at
the polls in November by Bryan,
who will be nominated by acclama-
ton at Denver as the Democratic
Presidential candidate. AS the
National Food Magazine puts it
the politicians have agreed under
the will of Mr.. Roosevelt and Taft
influence, that the 350-pounder
shall be nominated by the Republi-
can party but the people do not
want Taft The Magazine goes on
to say that "the people have two
idols; they will be satisfied with Ell
ther. Their preference, however,
would be for the one who has been
tried and found honest, courageous
and just. Therefore the people
would rather vote for Theodore
than for William Jennings
Bryan. But they believe in Mr..
Bryan---they know that many of the
policies called Roosevelt policies to-
lay were the Bryan policiess of
;wcive years ago, executed by man
having u, courage of his convic-
ions. T.ler know now, from the
exposure Of recent years, that Mr.,
3rraa was defeated for the presi-
lenc in bo.h his campigns by de-
uge If money coming from the cof-
ers of the twilight zone marau-
Iers. They believe that William
ennings Bryan knows the difference
'etweeen right and wrong and has

the courage to protect the peoples
interest. They love Theodore Roose-
velt for the good he has accomplish
ed; they love William Jennings Bry-
an for the good they knew he can
accomplish. The republican party
will either nominate Theodore
Roosevelt or go to defeat if the
democratic party nominates William
Jennings Bryan. The National Food
Magazine has no interest in poll
tics, as such, but is interested In the
election of men who will strive for
the passage of good laws and insist
on their execution. For thirty year S
the United States was in sore need
of a food law that would prohibit
the swindling adulterator from pois-
oning the people, but it was not un-
til Theodore Roosevelt became pres
ident that such a law was made pos
sible. The interests" we're too
strong until the man of courage
arrived at the White House. We
know what he accomplished for the
cause this magazine represents and
we would therefore prefer that
Theodore Roosevelt be retained as
the president of the United States,
butsif this cannot be done, our pre-
ference is for man who believes
in the same principles and who. we
believe, has equal courage in action
William Jennings Bryan.

We have never been much of an
admirer politically of Gov. Hcke
Smith, of Georgia. He has always
been to much Of a Cleveland wor-
shipper to suit us, but still we think
he is right in his fight in Georgia,
and sooner or later the people will
turn to him again, and then he will
gain a permanent victory for the
masses over the classes.

ONE of Taft's political managers
says from the way things are now
going, no namn but Taft's will be
presented to the convention" Sure.
What would be the use, after the
Taft committee gets through fix
ing" the delegates as they have been
doing at Chicago for some days. The
Taft managers have found it cheap
er to count out the Foraker mig
gers" than it is to buy them, and so
thew have counted them out.

The several gentlemen who
thought they were candidates for
the Presidency before the Republi-

Taft is fixing" the delegates for
himself, but they will all submit
and pull for the ticket because they
know they would 10 the same thing
for themselves if they were in Taft's
place.

IT makes no difference what Taft
and his managers may do about
kicking out anti-Taft delegates from
the Republican convention there
will be no bolt. The Republican
party is organized an5 run in th
interests of the trusts, and the Re

agents of the trusts, know that the
surest way Of getting results for
their trust masters is to stick to the
machine. So they Will stick.
