Woodrow Wilson.

Every day signs are thicken-
ing pointing to Governor Wood
row Wilson of New Jersey as the
Democratic standard-bearer in the
next National campaign. " }
Bryan, who in spite OF those
who would belittle his influence,
still YIELDS potent influence IN
the councils of the Democratic par
ty, has frankly announced his OPP
position to Governor Judson Har-
mon as a Presidential possibility.
Senator Gore, the eloquent blind
statesman from Oklahoma, is VIII
sons ardent admirer and, supporter,
and numerous other men OF widest
influence representing all parts OF
the Union have declared for the
brilliant college president, or are
ready to do so.
At this angle it looks as if Wood
row Wilson will be the man to lead
the hosts of "unterrifed" Democracy
to victory in 1912, albeit The Rec
ord is prejudiced neither for nor
against any of the several prominent
candidates now in the lime-light.
We want to see chosen the man best
fitted to lead US to victory and, IN
our humble opinion, it is as yet too
early in the game to say with any
degree of certainty who that man
may be.

A DEVOTED HUSBAND
Gives Blood in Last Desperate
Effort TO Save Wife'S Life.

Gives Blood in Last Desperate
Effort TO Save Wife's Life.
Washington, June Ex-senator
Luke Lea of Tennessee, to save the
life of his wife, heroically sacrificed
a quart of his blood at Georgetown
hospital yesterday and tonight the
recovery of Mrs Lea is assured to the
anxious youngest Senator of the ma
ton.
Mrs Lea's strength, because of
lack of blood, was gone and her Vi
tality was fast ebbing away, after
an operation on Sunday. Senator
Lea. learning of her condition, de-
manded that TRANSMISSION operation
be performed and prepared at once
to submit to the ordeal. At the end
ing, physicians and surgeons made
arrangements Immediately and the
operation which followed was de-
clared to have been successful.
Senator Lea withstood the opera
ton well, though it left him very
weak, and for hours he could not
stand alone, but the operation had
great reviving effect upop his wife.
1t was said that without the great
sacrifice of Senator Lea, Mrs Lea
could have lived but a few hours.
Tonight Mrs Lea is pronounced al
together out of danger.
Senator Lea is confined to his bed
at the hospital, his vitality being re-
duced by the TRANSMISSION operation.
1t is expected, however, that he will
be able to leave his room in a few
days.
When heroic efforts in Mrs Lea's
behalf became imperative, and the
taansfusion operation wos deter
mined upon, Senator Lea, athletic in
stature, would not consent to any
thing but that a sacrifice of his own
blood to renew her vanishing
strength be made.
But because prime factor in
TRANSMISSION operations is that the
bloods be fusible, tests were hastily
ordered. Before the analysis was
complete, the surgeons, DIS H D Fry
and Geo Tully Vaughan, fearing that
death might be swifter than they,
became alarmed at Mrs Lea's condi-
ton and decided to try the operation
any way. Just as the Senator's arm
was barred and a tube inserted in an
artery, word came that the bloods of
the husband and wife were fusible.
The other end of the tube, which
had been inserted in Senator Lea's
arm, was connected with an in
cision in Mrs Lea's arm, and the
blood began to flow from his veins
to those of his wife. Gradually the
color returned to the lips and cheeks
of the frail sufferer. But as Mrs
Lea's color was restored, the flush
faded from the cheeks of her hus-
band. When the TRANSMISSION had
continued for an hour and a half, he
importuned the surgeons not to ar
rest the operation while there was
possibly a chance for Mrs Lea. But
the surgeons, realizing the weaken
ing effects of such a drain on the
Senator's system, eventually stopped
the flow. After the operation, Sen
ator Lea fell to the floor in a faint.
He was Immediately placed in bed
and tonight is making splendid re-
