Oother men and women were swim

else?' He ducked to one side under
the water and O'Rourke thinking he
knew where he could lay his hands on

He too steered around under the

send in his contribution without de-

been reached, but final and enthus-

every dollar in the closing days OF
the campaign will count as effective

In polling a light vote in Florida
and the other Southern states in pres
idential elections, as has been the case
for many years, the Southern demo
Gratis have been playing directly into
the hand of the republican party which
is seeking to pass a measure cutting
down Southern representation, and il
fact got such measure through the
House at the last session of Congress
Republican orators point to the South
ern election figures to sustain their
contention, and every democrat who
stays away from the polls next Tues
day is putting an effective weapon in
the hand of his republican enemy to
be used to reduce the number of con.
gressmen from this section.

The republican party claims credit
for the prosperity of the country and
as the crops, which are dependent
upon the rain and sunshine, are the
basis of that prosperity it follows that
all of us owe our gratitude to the
republican party for so kindly furnish
ing such favorable crop weather. But
Mr.. Bryan disputes the claim and in
one of his recent speeches says:
Il can prove TO you that the repub-
lican party has nothing TO do with
fertility of soil or sunshine or rain,
for if it did there would be a trust
on sunshine and meter on the sun.
The fact that these things are not
monopolies is conclusive proof that
the republican leaders exercise no
control over them"
And yet there are people who say
that the democratic leader has no
real sense OF humor, satire and irony.
They are among his most effective
weapons.

Governor Conner, Of Alabama, is in
hot water again because of an in
terview he gave out Monday in which
he said that he would tolerate no
trihing with the law in Mobile on
the first of the coming year when pro-
hibition goes into effect. He will so
there in person, if necessary. and
see that every saloon is closed and
stays closed. Mobile is very sore on
that subject, and the governors in
terview is taken as a gratuitous irri-
tation, rubbing it in so to speak,
as well as an affront to the law abid-
ing character of the people of the city.
Mobile will tnuckle to the law and
close her saloons just as Birmingham
did, without resort to heroic meth
DDS on the part of the law, but if the
strenuous governor of Alabama wants
TO tackle real tough proposition let
him try to keep Mobile dry in fact as
well as theory.

The Real
Magnetic Issue.

Touch the live wire of their pocket

ton of the great American people
without further delay. The guarantee
of bank deposits is one of the truly
fetching issues of the democratic
campaign and we observe from the
press dispatches that in the East no
less than in the West Mr.. Bryan's
audiences are specially anxious to
hear him on that point and give en-
thusiastic applause to his views.
The people want their hard-earned
money protected when they put it in
bank and if the government can
guarantee wealth TO the plutocrats
through a protective tariff they don't
see why it cannot also protect by leg
islation the bank deposits of the
masses of the people.

we suspect it would be discovered
that the democratic plank of guaran-
teeing bank deposits did the work.
If there is one magnetic issue in

The Miami Metropolis puts it strong
ly when it says that the democrat
who fails to vote next Tuesday is
guilty of a political crime. Whether
it be crime or not, it is inexcusable

the delinquent is not only a poor kind
of democrat, but holds his right of
suffrage as an American citizen too
cheaply to argue much for either his
intelligence or his patriotism.

for the moral effect the grand aggre-

is a fact that this light vote not

every other southern state where the
supremacy of democratic rule is in
no danger, is being used as a strong
republican argument to reduce South

Mr.. Bryan a full democratic vote next
Tuesday, while it will not increase his
strength in the electoral college be-
yond that he is already sure of, it will
give US more respect and considera-
