Democratic convention"
Az circuit attorney Folks crusade

him into national prominence.
Governor Folk was once talking
about reform.
I'VE all believe In It," he said. but
we want to see 1t brought about al

UNDERWOOD AND MARSHALL
Representative Underwood has been
granted a good deal of political strength
as presidential possibility. He Is
chairman of the ways and means COM
mittee and man whose word car
ries much weight in his party.
Governor Marshall's presidential
boom was launched last September. A
reporter sent to interview him In jan
uary. 1910, said that the governor
greeted him as follows: Talk? Yes,
I'll talk. In fact. my wife declares
that l am as willing and precipitate
as was the negro woman who worked
in a steam laundry. Sam wanted to
propose, but lacked the courage, face
to face, and so he called her up by

neither a pronounced Bryanite nor
should be the second

On the tariff re takes his place as
tariff for revenue Democrat. With
out committing himself unequivocally
to the initiative and referendum, he
nevertheless assisted to pass such
laws relating to municipalities only
through the Ohio legislature.
After HIS retirement as attorney
general and during the height Of the
Bryan wave Mr.. Harmon. like most
Democrats who had been closely iden-
titled with the Cleveland administra-
ton, took back seat politically. But
in 1908 he loomed up again upon the
political horizon. Despite the fact
that he had twice before contested the
presidency with a native son Of Ohio,
Mr.. Bryan nad not Jared so badly at
the hands of the electorate of the
state which he aspired to carry, and
his political advisers believed that IL
he could obtain the conservative Dem
ocrats' support he might accomplish
his aim. 1t was with this end In view
that the Bryan Democrats, excepting
Tom L. Johnson. interposed little real
opposition to Harmon's nomination
| i
for governor.
Harmon carried the state by approx
imately 10000 plurality. while Bryan
was defeated by approximately 10000.
CHAMP CLARK
Champ Clark is serving his ninth
term as member of the house of rep
resentatives. of which body he is speak
err. The movement to nominate him
for president has been attributed to
Democratic congressman.
In an official Democratic gathering
In Missouri about year ago Joseph
w. Folk was Endorsed for president.
The Clark boom. starting in Washing
ton, upon reaching Missouri seriously
embarrassed both Clark and Folk. A
tentative proposition was discussed
looking to a popular primary in Mis-
souri, as between these two men at
which the delegates to the national
convention would be chosen and in
structed.
Both Mr.. Folk and Mr.. Clark were
included in Bryan's eligible" list for
the presidency, although Mr.. Bryan in
an editorial somewhat criticised Mr.
Clark for his cordial relations In the
management of the house of represent

whose policies Mr.. Bryan opposes.
Among his supporters Speaker Clark

landslide they had In the Fourteenth
Massachusetts district. He predicted
long ago that the tariff issue would dom.

Second Article-Side Lights on
Democrats Who Have Been
Prominently Talked Of as Can
didates at the Baltimore Con-
vention.
BY JAMES L. AUSTIN

"HE Democratic national conven-
ton to choose a candidate for
president will open In Balti-
more on June %, one week aft
er the assembling Of the Republicans
for a similar purpose. The same air
of uncertainty that has characterized |
the Republican situation has prevailed |
on the Democratic side. Seven names
have figured prominently in the list Of
Democratic possibilities. OF this mum
Der Governor Judson Harmon of Ohio
md Governor Woodrow Wilson of New I
Jersey have been regarded by many
persons as the most likely to land the
nomination. And yet the other men
on this list-Speaker Champ Clark Of
Missouri, Oscar w. Underwood, ex-
Governor Joseph w. Folk of Missouri,
Governor Eugene N. Foss of Massa-
chusetts and Governor Thomas Il: Mar
shall Of Indiana-have not lacked for
support. Each has had his share Of
popular enthusiasm within the party.
AS in the case Of Republican choice
for the presidential nomination, no po-
litical sage has been able to say and
brook no denial that this man or that
man would come out victorious in the
approaching battle of Baltimore"
At the time the political pot began
to boil during the winter political enc
mics Of Wilson and Harmon were ut
work. The first disturbing factor In
the Wilson campaign for the nomina-
tion was the Princeton mans i'm
broglio with former United States Sen
ator James Smith. Jr., of DIR. Wilson's
own state. Smith laid claim to having
. ming, and when the latter tore himself
away from the former senator he ran
afoul Of unrelenting hostility display
ed In variety of forms.
Colonel George b. Harvey, too, was
said to have figured conspicuously in
the political discovery of DIR. Wilson,
and when the Wilson-Harvey break oc-
Cured the New Jersey governors foes
did not overlook an opportunity. The
Harvey incident involved Henry Wat
terson. veteran Democrats and Louis
Vile editor. Mr.. Watterson's criti-
cism of Or. Wilson for the break with
Colonel Harvey did not serve to lure
back the dove of peace. Watterson
had said that in spite of his expecta-
tions regarding Wilson he had found
rather schoolmaster thar states
man." to which observation Wilson's
first quoted reply was that "Mr. Wat
terson is a nice old gentleman"
JUDsoN HARMON
Governor Harmon was also encoun-
tering antagonism, that of the Progress
slve Democratic League Of Ohio. or
ganized to combat his candidacy, and
declaring that he was not an active
progressive.
Governor Harmon's public career
suggests that he and President Taft
were foreordained, as II were. to cross
each others political paths, In fact,
Governor Harmon was credited with
this remark when he succeeded Rich
ard Olney as attorney general In Pres
ident Clevelan III cabinet In 1905.
Harmon Is called conservative.

T<RIMBLE was an Englishman,
and Mccarthy, as you perhaps
might surmise, was an Irish
man. They were not upon the
best of terms.
Everybody liked Mccarthy In the
boarding house In Boston where the
two young men lived. He had fine
voice for ballads, and he knew an enor-
| nous number of them. A delegation,
| Including all the pretty girls In the
boarding house, was always In waiting
to escort Mccarthy to the piano after
dinner. Trimble cared little for music
and nothing at all for the girls, but he
felt that he should have been of far
more Importance than Mccarthy In any
society. He would often sit in n corner
of the parlor with another young Eng
lishman named Corwin and discuss the
thousand faults Of Mccarthy as he
and Corwin figured them out.
II Trimbe and Corwin had not thus
acquired the habit of being jealous Of
Mccarthy it is possible that neither of
them would have been disturbed by his
attentions to Miss Bessie Carroll. a
stunning, pretty girl. who spent some
weeks in the boarding house with her
parents. Trimble and Corwin decided
almost Immediately that Miss Carroll
was far above the social level of that
house. and they included one Patrick
Mccarthy.
The CAROLS had house in Win
and when certain alterations had been
completed in their home they moved
back to ii. During the succeeding win
ter Mr.. Trimble, Mr.. Corwin and Mr..
Mccarthy went out to Winchester
quite often. Englishmen may think
slowly, yet they really do think down
to the truth, and soon there came q
time when Trimble and Corwin began
to think that 1t was not much use for
them to go out to Winchester any
more. Neither was sure of this.
On the evening Of the 10th of March
Trimble knocked at McCarthy's door
on the way down to dinner.
He opened McCarthy's door without
waiting for an answer to his rap and
was surprised to find that the room
was empty.
"Well, upon my word" said he and
began to back out, closing the door
At that moment his glance fell upon
the end of yellow envelope which
protruded from under the rug by the
door. Obviously this was telegram
which some servant had pushed in be-
meath the door.
The lappet Of the envelope was so
carelessly sealed that mere touch
opened It A single glance sufficed for
the reading Of the message:
Shall take steam cars, not trolley. Meet
me Northern depot II go. E. c.
So Miss Carroll was coming in to
view the parade. Doubtless Mccarthy
had made arrangements for entertain
ing her. and there had been an ap-
pointment which this telegram was in
tended to change. If Mccarthy should
not receive the message and should
fail to be at the Northern depot and
Mr.. Trimble should happen to meet
Miss Carroll In the midst Of her wrath
she might be very kind. 1t is femi-
nine method Of revenge described In
all the books, and Trimble thought
that luck was favoring him.

A Patent Mixer at Last.

A friend of ours, residing near Hamlet,
says the Knox Democrat, will soon take
the fOOtlights as the greatest henefactOr
of the past - or IA years by reason of
his recent invention, known as patent
mixer" We have been requested to-
withhold his name from print until his
full page ad. appears in the city papers,
but he has been kind enough to let us in
on the mechanical nature of the patent
by supplying us with portion of his
advertising copy" which reads as fol
lows:
IAN eccentric three inches in diameter
is attached to the cows jaw. From this
leads wire com ectiOn with elastic nip
pie on the udder, each of which is fitted
with a valve making it an air pump
when in motion. When the cow chews
her cud the eccentric revOlves and the
wire is worked back and forth like a
piston, creating suction in the pipes.
The milk as it is drawn, runs into a
bucket suspended below. The invention
will relieve the Gairymen Of much lab
or"
We have just succeeded in getting a
patent on an improvement Of the above.
1t is an electric motor fastened on the
rump of the cow, the electricity being
generated by small dynamo attached
to her tail. She switches her tail, dyna-
mo starts, strains the milk, hang up the
pail and also the strainer. A small
monograph accompanies the outfit which
yells so every time she moves. If she
lifts her foot to kick, little dingus slips
over cOndivias and the phonOgraph
says "dammett," and if she continues to
kick hinged arm catches the milk stool
and Iams her on the back till it lOOsens
a patch of hair as big as dust pan. A
patent churn goes with the outfit that
works the butter in one dish and the
hair in another.

An exchange says that recent SUI
preme court decision will no doubt re-
suit in the death of many vicious dogs.
The decision was in case where action
had been brought to recover damages
from the owner of a dog that had barked
aud frightened the plaintiffs horse. The
plaintiff was thrown and injured and
brought SUIT for $500 damages. The
jury gave him verdict for that amount
and the owner of the dog appealed to
the supreme court. The supreme court
confirmed the verdict, and says in strong
words that the owners of barking and
vicious dogs are responsible for all dam
ages caused by such dogs and the owners
keep them atthelr own peril.
