The celebration of the Poe centennial
brings to the front the opinions held Of
him by his contemporaries. Ralph
Waldo Emerson referred to him as
the Jingle man." while Tennyson de-
clared that Bryant, Whittier and 9TH
ers are pigmies compared with Poe"
The permanent place of Poe will be
somewhere between these extremes
Poe is perhaps the only notable Amer
lean writer who is more praised abroad
than at home, though it has been much
the same in the case of Cooper.

Those Indiana Democrats evidently
know each other pretty well. When
the caucus of the Democratic members
of the legislature was held at which
a Senatorial candidate was named, it
was not only held behind closed doors
but every member was forbidden to
leave the caucus except under guard,
and the candidates who were hover
allowed to have communication with
their supporters in the caucus Per-
hans one reason for these precautions
lay in the fact that the other Demo-
Gratis knew that Tom Taggart was
managing the Kern campaign.

Congressman William Willett, Jr.,
of New York, has succeeded in getting
his name into the papers. but he hurt
nobody except himself in his foul til
ra lie against President Roosevelt. The
House OF Representatives, as a self
respecting and dignified body, could do
nothing less than to shut him off and
refuse him permission to finish the
speech he began. Had not abstracts of
the speech been sent out to the press
in advance, it would be charitable to
Congressman Willett to assume that
the speech was merely an outburst of
drunken frenzy.

In his tragic death the late Senator
Carmack of Tennessee won notable
victory for the cause of prohibition in
that state. In his campaign for the
governorship he stood for a statewide
prohibitory law and the success of the
friends OF this law in securing its pas
sage through the legislature of the
state was, due largely to the feeling
aroused by his murder. The success

the local option idea but he is unable
to stem the tide and the new law Will
go into effect. 1t was hardly expected
that Tennessee would be added so sud
denly to the great dry era of the

prohibition will soon be supreme.

That Atlanta Banquet.

The southern newspapers as they
come North tell us a lot of interesting
things about that Atlanta banquet to
Taft which were not mentioned in the
bare and prosaic account sent out over
the wires by the Associated Press.
Here are sample headlines from one of
the Georgia newspapers: ''Casar's Tri-
umph Outdone,' Southern Chivalry
Halls Taft's Coming as Breath of
Morning Dew Yesterday Business
was Suspended, Today it is P2ralyzed,"
Even Hoke Smith Smiles in SYM
pathy with the Taft Smile" ETC.,
ETC. There were SIS Georgians
present. including the outgoing COVER
nor, Hoke Smith, and the incoming
governor, Joseph NJ. Brown. Both of
these are ardent apostles of prohibition,
and so we are led to believe that the
persimmon beer. of which three casks
were OH tap, is regarded in Georgia as
something that cheers without inebriat-
ing.
There were no fewer than 100 pos
sums on the banquet board, and the
big 'possum of all, that prepared es-
pecialiy for the guest of honor, weigh
ed "a pounds, which is something of a
record breaker even among Georgia
'possums. We are Informed that the
'possum was cooked a Ia Panama and
although the details Of that culinary
process are aggravatingly withheld, it
is said that this is the best method to
avoid internal riots Around a 'possum
SO prepared, over it and through it,
are chopped carrots, chopped onions,
leeks, green peppers, bay leaves, cloves,
ard little garlic, all moistened with
persimmon beer On the menu along
with this tempting dish were sac
charine yams, corn pones, wild turkey,
quail, salad la Taft and also Merry
Widow punch, the latter being possibly
referred to in that headline which says
that all business was paralyzed the
next day.
The reports of the banquet make 1t
plain that Taft captured the hearts
Of all those present and there can be
no doubt that the menu captured at
least the stomach of the distinguished
guest. The southern papers do not tell
US whether grace was asked before
the banquet began but they do mention
that Rev. j. w. Lee who was present
"Cahve dat 'possum, cahve him to de
heart" This was met with such APP

Planning to Head of Bryan.

peerless leader himself, are already
Matching up a scheme to prevent Bryan
from leading them to defeat in 1912
Not that they expect to win victory
i'll that campaign, but they prefer to be
change. Therefore they are starting
early booms for local favorites in hope
of heading off the perennial Bryan
boom. The difficulty in the past has
been that Bryan got his start before
any one else was aware, and when
there really seemed a chance to beat
him it was found to be too late to do
anything. Many people believe that
if Johnson of Minnesota had made an
1908 nomination. This is why some of
the Democratic leaders in Washington
are starting a boom for Johnson in
1912. Others are talking up Harmon of
Ohio, while Culberson of Texas has
his friends who are active, and the
New Englanders think that exGOv-
ernor Douglas is to be looked upon as

the wilderness. 1t is interesting to see
what Bryan will do to these budding
boomlets. but it is a safe bet that he
is not losing any sleep over them.
