Sioux City Tribune: Senator Gan-

support by getting the committee on
Indian affairs to favorably report a

ATLANTA (Ga.) journal. !

IAtlanta (Ga) journal
Senator O'Gorman Of New York de-
clares that Woodrow Wilson If chosen
the Democratic nominee can carry that
state against any Republican.
A weightier comment on present day
politics has not been made. 1t crushes
the fimsy pretension that Woodrow
Wilson's candidacy would lose or i'm
peril the party's chance in New York
state and indicates his strength in the
strategic center of the east AS well as
in the west and the south.
Coming from a leader of Senator
O'Gorman's prestige and farSighted-
ness, this estimate is particularly Sig
niflcant. He is the titular head of the
Democracy Of New York, state that
has ninety votes in the nominating
convention and forty-five votes in the
electoral college, the state for which
both parties strive most vigorously in
presidential years as the key to ma
tional success. He has the support of
Tammany Hall, but, he is immeasura-
bly, beyond and above the system with
which Tammany is identified in the
public mind. He is versed in prac-
tical politics, but he is also a states
man of spotless record and Of rare
ability, so much so indeed that when
he was called to the senate the people
as a whole, regardless of party con-
nections. rejoiced that the duties of the
office had fallen upon man so emf
nently fitted to bear them.
OF all the Democratic nominees yet
suggested Woodrow Wilson would not
only stand the largest chance to carry
New York. but, according to the recent
testimony of Senator Gardner of
Maine, he is the only Democrat who
could win portions of New England.
From the clear headed testimony of
these two eminent Democrats. Sena-
tor O'Gorman of New York and Sena.
tor Gardner of Maine. 1t is evident that
Governor Wilson is particularly strong
In the very places wherein his foes
would have us believe he is fatally
weak.

Pr0lOnging Life.

While no way has yet been found to make
life perpetual, it is a fact that life can be
prolonged. Many people die before their
time because the organs become clogged and
can not do their work. To keep their body
open, active and free from impurities there
must be no constipation, dyspepsia, Aalu-
lency, liver troubles, etc. If old or young
people suffer from these complaints they can

IDEAL CANDIDATE
FOR PRESIDENCY.


BY Col. ALEXANDER 9. BACON,
Former Member Of Congress From New
York.
An ideal candidate II one Of charm
ing personality and force Of character,
who has convictions and Is not ashan-
ed to proclaim them and In brave
enough to change them when con-
vlnced they are wrong; q man Of learn
ing and experience, acute to compre-
hend a situation and correctly to ap-
ply actual, present conditions to the
theories Of the books which collate the
analogies Of history: a forceful speak
er, impressing an audience with his
sincerity, having something to say
drawn from a stoPehouse Of learning
and having the faculty Of saying II
concisely and forcefully. with enough
flashes Of wit to hold the attention of
the most thoughtless and inattentive.
Such is an ideal candidate.
An ideal president 10 one who would
live up to his party and personal
pledges In spite Of every influence,
even that of personal friendship; who
would put country, above party, above
friends and above personal ambition:
one so wise that he could not be cheat
ed by friends or blufYed by adversaries
and so strong that he could not be
swerved from duty even by his wife;
one who is not a tool of others. but is
himself dominant, ruling those about
him by sheer force OF character; su
perior native acumen and tact and ac
qulred learning, but always exercising
dominance In the interest Of democra
cy, not aristocracy: who would take
each mans counsel. but reserve bis
judgment. and would be shrewd and
patriotic enough to surround himself
with cabinet Of the strongest and
most unselfsh minds In the country.

WITH A., 3. G. A.-NOW CO.
ING OVER SYSTEM.

G. c. Smith, formerly superinten-
dent of the A, B. & A, who recently
resigned that position to accept one
with the Southeastern Yaryan Naval
Stores company, of this city, will ar
rive here within the next few days
to take up the duties of his new Of
flee. He has been succeeded by A.
Moritz, formerly with the A. & w. P.
The Fitzgerald Leader contains the
following about the new superinten-
dent:
Mr.. Adolph Moritz arrived in the
city Wednesday and assumed the du-
ties of superintendent of the Bruins
wick division of the Atlanta, Birming-
ham and Atlantic railroad, succeeding
G. G. Smith, who filed his resigna-
ton with the receivers of the road
last month.
While Mr.. Smiths resignation was
indeed great blow to the A., B. & A.
they are to be congratulated upon
being able to procure the services of
so able man as Mr.. Moritz to sue
coed him.
Mr.. Moritz is a man of extensive
experience in the railroad business
and comes to the A, B. & A. from
the A. & w. P. with whom he has
been connected for a number of
years in the capacity of train mas
ter, with headquarters in Montgom-
cry. His career with the A. & w. P.
has been most successful one in
every respect and the experience gain
ed while with this company fits him
very peculiarly for the position, which
he now holds.
