Thou to whom our honor is due,
Can we now, yet honor thee more!
We can, we can, echoes so clear,
It is an anthem in the air;
God grant Wen see thy patriot brow
Crowned in the executive chair.
Oh. may Che sun around you shine
So bright from out the sky OF blue,
And never changing in its hue
Till our laurel wreath OF glory,
Streaming in the smiles Of heaven,
Is honored with the name-Bryan.
Oh, Bryan, power thou dost veal
Is so mighty and so charming,
Seems from majestic powers hurled,
And ever in new spheres bounding;
They that crushed, could not cast
Him that stands for our country's
renoWn.
We honor thee now, will honor thee
more
Midst the coming November's
snow;
For our country now must know,
The JOY that's in it ought TO flow;
Let every heart that reads this line,
Be touched with its golden rhyme.
And when many, many years have fled,
May these hearts with a tear ne'er
shed,
See our country the greatest nation
OF earth, still free from shore to
shore.
May our children then point with pride
And honor to thee-Bryan.

Planting Lettuce Under Shade.

A number of the shaded tobacco
growers are preparing to put in lettuce
on a large scale to ship 20 northern and
eastern markets. The grounds have
been prepared, seed-beds made and
planting about begun. It has been found
that preparing the grounds, the use of
fertilizers, ETC., in addition to making
the lettuce crop will put the grounds in
even better shape to follow with next
years crop of Sumatra shaded wrapper
tobacco. SO far, those who have gone
into the lettuce growing are Messrs.
Mcdaniel, Is acres on the Ball & Gins
berg place, H. A. Williams, Is acres on
his company's place, Charlie Perkins,
Is acres on his place, and H. L. Bethel,
On his company's place, 10 acres, with
Mr.. W. G. CrOmartie to manage it for
him. 1t is thought a lettuce and celery
crop can be raised under shade and pro-
lection as pro6tably and much cheaper
than crop Of tobacco, and these gen
tlemen named above propose to test it
by experimenting on the large scale
mentioned above. The True Democrat
wishes all the gentlemen great success
and large returns for their enterprise
in practically testing the question as to
whether profitable crop can be made
and disposed of at remunerative prices.

FISHER HAS
APPLICANTS

Zeider will not go with Mike Fisher
to the Orient after all. It was only
a few months ago that the shortstop
was married, and he is building home
for his family back in Indiana. Rolly
is anxious to go back to superintend
the work, though he reluctantly asked
Fisher to release him. Zeider had a
taste of the Orient last winter when
he went to Honolulu and he liked it.
Mike has had so many applications
from players wanting to travel with
him that he advised Zeider that there
would be no hard feeling between them
if he remained in America. He could
organize two clubs as well as one If
he needed them. Fisher decided to put
McArdle in Zeider S place. Mac ap-
piled for a position after Fisher
thought his team was "full up How
ever, he promised to give the Seals
third baseman first chance in case of
a vacancy. Last winter Mac played
baseball in Cuba. For the past four
seasons he has gone there with clubs
which have played exhibition games
until the holiday season. Last WIN
ter we played fourteen games IN
CUBA said McArdle speaking of his
trip. "We played two games a week
for seven weeks. just before the hol-
idavs the league opened its season, and
then we came home. Baseball is pop
ular in Cuba. We drew as high as s.
600 people on Sunday. They charge
20 and 40 cents to see the games. We
plsvers got $40 a week and our ex-
penses. There is a baseball man IN
New Jersey who organizes the club,
and I have been going with him. He
hicks up PLAYERS wherever he can get
them. it is pleasant trip. In Cuba
thew bet like everything on the games,
and Americans living there backed us,
and often they would split up their
winnings with the players. They nave
some fair players among the Cubans,
but they think they can play better
than they can.
Mike Fisher picked out his uniforms
for his big stars the other day. The
King is doing the thing up brown. The
costumes he selected for his players
last winter won't be in the same class
for gorgeousness. Mike has picked
buds that positively speak the Amer
lean language. The suits will be made
of immaculate white On the left arm
of each player will be silk shield
with an American eagle on it. Old
Glory will wave from the front of the
caps. The coats and the stockings
win be of red, white and blue stripes
