SENATOR SIMMONS SCORES
AGAIN.

. At a dinner given in honor of
Thomas Jefferson atthe Knicker,
booker Hotel in New York City
last Monday evening by the
National Democratic Club, one of
the most noted organizations in
the country, Senator F. M. Sim
mons preached the soundest sort
of sound Democratic doctrine
and his speech has attracted
wide and favorable notice.
The other principal speakers
were Senetor Owens, of Okla
homa, and President Woodrow
Wilson, of Princeton University.
An invitation to address this
Club on such an important occa
sion is an honor of which any
man in the country might we'll be
proud; and from the fact that
Senator Simmons was invited tC
deliver one ofthe principal speech
es it may be seen that his ability is
recognized by the most promi-
nent Democrats of the ma.
ton. The subject of his
address was THE White
House and the Democracy" anC
the manner in which he called at
tention to executive usurpatiol
by the occupant of the Whit
House was a powerful presenta
ton of the dangers of the Roose
welt idea of Capitalization. Hi
description of a true Democrat i
refreshing in these days of polit
ical heresy.
