WARNING IS ISSUED
 BY CHAMP CLARK Republican Defeat More Than
 Democratic Victory
ARE NOW ON PROBATION
Party Holds Destiny in It's Own Hands and Has More Than an Even Chance of Sweeping the
 Country in 1912

Baltimore, January 17.-Declaring that the gathering of democrats was not for the purpose of achieving harmony but for the maintenance of harmony already achieved, Representative Champ Clark of Missouri, leader of the minority in the House and assured of the speakership of the next Congress, warned the democratic conference here today that much re- mained to be done to assure democracy a secure hold on what it already has at tained. Even more was necessary, he cautioned, to make certain of the further political gains which he declared to be due the party.
 When we analyze the figures of the last election" he said, Tt will be seen that the result was not so much a vic tory for the democrats as a defeat for the republicans. Our success was the re- suit largely. of the stay-at-home vote Therefore. we are really in state of pro- bation. The country has concluded to give us another chance to demonstrate our fitness to conduct the government
 On Probation
 Really we are in state of proba- ton. We hold our destiny in our own hands We have a golden opportunity Coupled with it are grave responsibilities If we are equal to the opportunity, if we meet the responsibilities with wisdom courage and patriotism, we will have long lease of power.'
 At the outset of his remarks MT. Clark admitted that the victory of November was a surprise to the rank and file of the democratic party. He added that with the inspiration born of victory the party had more than an even chance of sweep ing the country from sea to sea in 1912"
 This glorious result can be accom- plshed.' he continued. ''by the very sim pie process of carrying out religiously the promises which we made in order to win last November. Even if we were not disposed to redeem our promises as a matter Of principle. when we look upon the wreck of the republican party we have a most valuable object lesson of the low state to which q great organization may fall by a. failure to live up to its promises, because all those who having eyes see and having ears Shear, know that the G. O. P. was brought to deaths door because in 1909 it failed to do what in 1908 it promised 10 do.. Unless we de- sire to share it's fate we would do well not to follow its bad example,"
 Resenting the imputation that the dem- ocratic party was party of negation, MT. Clark pointed out that Thursday of the present week would see the democrats of the House in conference in washing ton to select the democratic members of the ways and means committee. This accomplished. he said, the members would proceed to the consideration of the

The little fellows played splendidly, and were complimented on every hand. h. oidentally, it is learned that the present legislature will not fail to take care of the Industrial school even though ii might prove necessary to make certain cuts in appropriations.
 One of the features of the inaugural parade was the ONeal Marching club of Mobile county. The club came with 300 members in line, bearing banners. Their band headed their procession. Fol lowing the parade, they serenaded Judge Almon and made him address them. This the judge did, and stated in conclusion that the delegation need not fear but that the democratic platform would be put into effect Lee Long was then ser enaded and he made a speech which met with wild shouts of approval The club made it known that it's members and Mo bile county wanted open saloons again.
 Another feature of the parade was the battalion of Starks school of Mont gomery The ages of the Starks' boys correspond to the ages of the boys of the industrial school. The little fellows did exceptionally fine work and their drilling attracted great deal of attention.
