local Democratic leaders have ~
ceiyed tip that certain upstate req
resentatives Of the party will MAKE
an EFFORT to have a prohibition pIonh
incorporated In the platform 1T the
Democratic state convention, to b.
held In Kalamazoo, Oct. T. Any such
attempt will be vigorously opposed b.
the Wayne county delegation. Now,
II ever, the outlook for the success
Of the local ticket is rosy. and to In
sert a prohibition plank In the plat
form would mean the loss Of thou
sands OF votes among the liberal elos
ment, on which the success OF the
local ticket depends to some extent.
With feeling In many quarters

loon laws and a weak candidate head

Gratis are in a fair way TO win unless

leaders figure. An anti-liquor plank
undoubtedly would help the state
ticket, but IL will not be adopted II
the Wayne delegation can prevent
Every one OF the l52 delegates to b
elected at The county convention IN
the Burns hotel Friday night will get
his orders to work and vote against
such a move.
1t is recalled that A. L. Lock, OF
Ionia, introduced resolution provid-
ing for a prohibition plank at the last
convention and the resolution lost
out by just one vote.
The county convention promises to
be hummer. It will take on the
nature of an old-fashioned Democrats
rally. All the local spellbinders will
be on hand, including ex-Congress-
man Aired Lucking, Frank z. Dore-
mus, candidate for congress against
DENLY; Frank ID. Eaman and Edwin
Henderson. and they will whoop Il
up for all that's In them. Never be-

WILSON REGARDED
As Dem. LEADER
Of FUTURE
President Of Princeton University
New Jersey Nominee for Governor,
Said To Be Presidential
Choice of East.
Educators Nomination Brought
About To Sidetrack Gaynor, Har.
mon, Marshall and Hoke Smith.

NEW YORK. Sept. 18.-Behind the
nomination in Trenton, n. j., yester
J day, OF DIR. Woodrow Wilson, presi
dent OF Princeton university, as the
Democratic candidate for governor, Is
said to be hidden the most desperate
struggle for control of the Demo
cratic party since the Gum shoe
campaign that ended in the nonina
ton of Alton b. Parker In 1904. Viii
son was nominated as the result OF q
lengthy series OF conferences OF
eastern Democrats, who desire
10 snatch the reins of the
national organization from the radi'
cal element that has been in control
since 1896. The old gold Democratic
organization and the Cleveland Dem
ocracy, so-called, and many powerful
business organizations are behind
the Wilson candidacy and IL he Is
elected governor-and politicians give
him more than an even chance-he
will be used TO sidetrack the Gaynor
Harmon, Marshall and Hoke Smith
booms. according to the best inform
ed politicians In this city.
That William j. Bryan realizes the
Wilson candidacy is intended to
shake of his grip on the party was
asserted by Democratic leaders here
today. In confirmation they point to
his boost" of Hoke Smith, OF Geor-
gia, In the Commoner, out today, In
which he CLASHES Smith as ''presi.
Dental timber" and says he Is the
southern man the big corporations
clamored for In opposition to his
(Bryan's) candidacy in 1900 and
1905" But Smith is out Of il, Bryan
continues, because he Is on record as
saying: The great corporations OF
Georgia must keep out OF politics.
They must not be allowed by hired
politicians and agents to dominate or
control the administration"
Politicians here contrasted this
Bryan-S Smith declaration with DR.. Will
aon's statement In accepting the nom
tnation when he said
1--WE shall not act either Justly or
wisely II we attack established inter
ests as public enemies. II Is easy to
condemn wrong and to illuminate
against wrongdoers in effective rhe.
torical phrases, but that does not bring
either reform or peace OF mind. 1t Is
the states and not the federal govern
ment that create corporations. The
regulation OF corporations is the duty
Of the state, much more directly than
1t Is the duty OF the government OF the
United States"
Wilson's candidacy was furthered
by former United States Senator
James Smith, Jr., leader OF the ultra
conservative Democrats Of New Jer-
sey, and acknowledged a corporation
man, assisted by Col George B. Har.
vey. AS an inducement to the dele
gates to nominate Wilson they were
told that he would be the candidate OF
the east for the next Democratic
nomination for president, and that he
would put New Jersey back on the
Democratic map.

slaughter in connection with the kill
ing of his son, Mark, Jr. Bail was

The question as TO whether the
charge against the aged farmer should
be murder or manslaughter was to
have been argued before Justice De-
Cav, Friday morning, but Assistant
Prosecutor Lamphere. who had charge
of the case for the people, and Attor-
ney Charles T. wilkins, for the de-
Tense, had agreed that the charge
should be manslaughter, In case the
Justice consented. This agreement
was ratified by Justice DeGaw and the
bail fixed.

TURKISH SOLDIERS FATALISTS
Makes Army Hard to Beat by Ordi

The lethargy of mind. which is the
mental habit of the Turkish soldier
the personal expression of fatalism-
is a most valuable quality in its way.
for it means that its possessor is al.
ways cool and collected. grumbles lit
tie and has marvellous endurance.
1t is alien to all forms of panic. just
as it is alien to a conspicuous elan.
If the Turkish soldier never goes very
fast, he never goes very slow. En-
cept by the best trained or most dash
ing troops. he is hard to beat.
