avowed intention of returning at an
early date and becoming actual set
tiers.
1t is novel thing for a mercan-
tile concern to undertake such
venture as this. 1t shows sublime
confidence in the county that is most
pralseworthy. But while there ear
few individuals or firms that have the
m ans or the inclination to undertake
such plan as this, there is no doubt
that the business men of a city like
Americas, for instance, could engi-
neer such a project successfully and
pull it off to the complete satisfac-
ton of every one concerned.
The SoutA is reaching out for high
grade white farmers. 1t wants them.
Every county in every state in the
South has need for them. Sumter
is no exception to the rule. While
we may not initiate the example of
this Alabama house, there are other
ways in which we can seek to accom-
plish the same end. One is by getting
in touch with every party of farmers
| that visits this state on an inspection
tour, invite them here, furnish them
with all the available facts, let them
know that Sumter is on the map and
| ready to welcome them That is the
most available course open to us It
it the one feature of its work that
the Board of Trade should look after.
1t should make it the especial duty of
| its secretary to undertake such mat
ters as this. To do that it must pay
a larger salary and engage the entire
time of man in that capacity. I'm

Trade will accomplish mighty little

The doom of Democracy in 1912 is

handwriting in the above. Arrange
ments making for one more grand re-
ception. a tumultuous outpouring of
the unterrifed hordes of the metrop-
oils, the Peerless One" advancing
to the footlights, the enunciation of
more original planks for the next
Democratic platform. 1t does not
take one gifted with any especial de-
gree of foresight to predict what is
coming. No seventh son of a sew
enth daughter, or one born with a
cowi, is needed to peer far enough
into the mysteries of the future 20

Memory carries one back to that
other homecoming of the Nebraskan.
the vast assemblage inside Madison
Square Garden and the mob that
clamored without for admission that
could not be had, the leaders gath
cred from the four quarters of the
country, the enthusiasm, and then
the sudden silence that settled upon
all as the orator of the hour called
for national ownership of the rail
roads. Democracy spelled its defeat
right then and there.
And now Bryan is returning from
another tour, this time of South
America. Who knows what new
ideas he has imbibed while in the
southern half of the hemisphere?
Who can tell what new policies he
will lay down for the party platform
in the next presidential race? Who
can tell what weapon he will thrust
into the hands of the Republicans
to belabor the Democracy with in
the next great national fight? Truly
he Republicans can we'll smile with

that Bryan is coming home. and
