That our American forests abound in
plants which possess the most valuable
medicinal virtues is abundantly attested
by scores of the most eminent medical
writers and teachers. Even the untu-
tored Indians had discovered the useful
ness OF many native plants before the
advent of the white race. This informa-
ton, impaired freely TO the whites, led
the latter to continue investigations until
to-day we have a rich assortment of most
valuable American medicinal roots.

The Young Mans
Duty and Opportunity.

| The Bryan and Kern Club of Escam-
| bia County has been successfully
launched, and will begin Immediately
its work of obtaining campaign con-
tributions and bringing forth a large
democratic vote at the coming cleo
ton.
| In this work there il al admirable
opportunity for the young man who is
to cast his first presidential vote, or
the young man who is to cast his
| first ballot in any election. 1t is the
duty of every man who claims citizen
ship to take an active part in the Do
liticai movement of the country. Pure
politics will be obtained only when all
the citizens take part in politics, and
by overwhelming numbers drive out
| the communicating influences that at
present exist. For this work the
young man il best fitted. The young
man has not yet attained a position
that compels him to down his natural
desire for that which is good. in the
interest of material benefits or privi-
leges. He is enthusiastic because he
cause his mind has had no chance to
be Sullied. and he is the most earnest
worker, because his interest when
aroused is easily sustained.
The Bryan and Kern club wants the
young democrats of this county to
join, and every young man should
join The voter to intelligently cast
his ballot should be as well trained in
politics as the men he votes for and
places in charge of the country's af-
fairs. This training can best be had
by taking an active part in the poIiti-
cal life of the community in which he
casts his ballot.
II all voters would earnestly study
the social, political and economic sit
uation of today. purity in politics and
betteTment of social and economic
conditions would follow The voter
owes il TO his fellow citizens TO cast
his ballot intelligently and honestly.
The man who votes for Smith. simply
because Jones tells him TO. commits
an Offense against his fellow citizens
He should first know why Smith is
better equipped to take charge of the
community's affairs than is Smith $
opponent. and his ballot should he
marked accordingly.
The Journal would like to see the
young men of Escambia well repre-
scented on the roll of the Bryan and
Kern club. II is a fine opportunity to
prepare himself for his duty on No
vember 8, and he should not overlook
il.
