bers OF their own party, but also those
OF our political opponents who think
more of good government than they do
of party success. urge upon you who
believe as | do on political subjects
that the first and highest duty of ev-
cry democrat in this campaign is to Sc
cure by all fair means the selection of
Woodrow Wilson to the presidency and
that of Thomas h. Marshall to the vice
presidency of the United States. Over
shadowing all other issues is their can
didacy, and our first duty is to them.
To those who have not heretofore at
filiated with our party, but who are not
in active opposition to us, would urge
the consideration of the irreprOachable
character and high abilities of these
distinguished statesmen as reason
that should prompt them to cast their
ballots for them in the November cleo
ton.
Hopeful Of the Outcome.

upon straight democratic platform.
4 combination of democrats, populists,
and silver republicans, it is true, had
control of the state from 1896 to 1902,
but my election was the first instance
where man had been selected running
upon purely democratic ticket Dur
ing my occupancy of the office l have
felt that the party to which / belong

To the best of my ability l have en-

talents l possess to the duties of that
office.

where l am again aspiring to this high

fellow citizens, aye, in every address
that l am called upon to make during
the campaign, should give some ac-

One must be most careful how he
laughs or even smiles in the pres
ence Of the great ones Of the earth
as is evidenced in the following in
stances:
Milbanke, a clever but blunt Scot,
who was an expert in colonial adj
ministration. was once summoned
by William Of Germany in order
that his valuable advice touching
eastern affairs might be obtained
for German guidance. The kaiser
had about decided to intrust Mil
banke with a most important Office
in China with considerable super
vision over German interests there.
It appears that during one Of
their conferences the kaiser offered
some absurd suggestion as to orien-
tai diplomacy, whereat the Scot
laughed. Immediately the emperor
wished him good day and never saw
him again.
It was another Scot, Duncan Nc
Yea, who advised the amiable but
sensitive King Carlos Of Portugal
in the government Of the Cape
Verde islands, at the time II very

decided to give McVea entire con

ing one Of their consultations bis

made q mess Of his English, which
was usually excellent McVea could
not help smiling audibly, with the
result that be was summarily dis
missed and never permitted to come
to court again
It is related that once, when he
vas very weary after a long journey
and consequently in no mood to be
trifed with, the czar Of Russia, in
passing through an apartment in
the palace at st. Petersburg, slipped
on a mat that lay on the polished
aoor and nearly fell. Clutching
wildly at one Of his attendants, the
emperor Of all the Russias went
through a series Of gyrations ex-
tremely ludicrous to behold that
nearly brought himself and bis sub
iect to the floor. Enidofi, at the
time a prominent and confidential
adviser to the throne, could not
check a smile, a smile that the czar

FOUND
Boy Who Ral Away from
n0me 10 this City
Located 10 Picture Show On
Tuesday Night

Eleven year old Sanford Stokes, son
of Mr.. and Mrs. Paul S. Stokes, who
disappeared Monday evening and who
was sought in vain during Monday
night and all day Tuesday, was found
by Mr.. Jay Hissong in the Arcade pic
ture show on South Main street Tues
day evening at about $3.50 o'clock.
Chief of Police Clements was notified
of the lads whereabouts and took him
to his parents who reside on East
Chestnut street.
When questioned, the boy admitted
that he spent the night in a hall Of
South Main street apartment house
and that he was the lad who ran away
from Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Harris
who found him lying in front of their
door Tuesday morning. He said that
he ran away because the boys told him
that Judge Berry was going to beat
him with a rawhide whip. Just how
his young companions came to think
of such an absurd story to tell him is
not known, but he evidently took the
warning seriously and really believed
that he was going to receive whip
ping with a rawhide whip.

For these things the bureau was

| Professor Holden see more than an
average increase Of few bushels.
They see q time coming when farmers
will raise twice a. many hnshels OF
corn, wheat and oats to the acre.
and like yields Of all other kinds Of
farm products. They see time when
farmers and farmers wives and their
