1t appears that the American fleet
is pursued by storm. On many laps on
the journey around the world it has
fallen in with rough weather. The
last of these storms is just subsiding

dispatches indicate that Admiral Sper-
ry's ships have ridden the typhoon
without so much as the loss of a spar.

Standing over the body Of the little
boy that the big automobile he had
been driving had crippled for life, a
New York chauffeur solemnly raised
his right hand and took an oath never
again to drive an automobile as long

would have been to swear to be more
careful in running the machine New
York World.

Bryan's voice is the only One that
has not given out during the present
campaign. Even his most persistent
critics admit that Mr.. Bryan's voice
is about the best voice that candi-

not so bad as the fact that they would
throw other remedies out of working

Editor Jeffersonian =
[ notice that you are opposed to the
plan of having the Governor nominated
by majority of the popular vote.
You say that the county delegate plan
is preferable AS we live in a Govern
ment based on the principle that the ma
jority should rule, don't you think the
county plan of delegates to nominate the
Governor and other officials is fraught
with more danger than that of allowing
the ma ority of the voters to decide? Sup
pose, for instance, that two men should
be candidates for Governor, and one
should have slight majority of the dele
gates to the convention, while the other
candidate had a large majority of the
popular vote, and the delegates should ig-
more the question of say fifty thousand
popular majority, and nominate the man
who had received the majority of the del
egates, don't you think this would mean
that the majority would revolt, as they
did in the quitt-Norwood campaign,
and bring on an independent fight, and
result in bringing back into politics the
ignorant negro vote? Is it not strictly
democratic that a majority should rule
/ am out of politics so far as seeking ar
office, and my only interest is that of the
ordinary citizen who desires good Gov
eminent, and in favor of the best means
of obtaining that end.
am not hunting for controversy, but
