ROOSEVELT AND WILSON

But the reason that the Times gave
for advocating the nomination of Will
son against Roosevelt had no relation
to the carrying of primaries. 1t was
based upon the absolute unlikeness or
the one to the other, upon the fact
that the two men were opposites in
cast and bias of mind, in type OF in
tellect, in habits of thought, in man
Iner and scope of education, in politi-
cal beliefs and ideals-that in all
these things they were as far apart
as in physical constitutions and per-
sonal appearance and social affilia-
tions.-Tampa Times.
Then the Ocala Banner has been la
boring under a Misrepresentation. 1t
thought that the Tampa Times, the
Pensacola Journal, the Miami Me-
tropols and kindred newspapers
were supporting Governor Wilson be-
cause of his striking similarity to the
colonel
Mr.. Roosevelt was photographed as
a progressive; Governor Wilson
was photographed as a progressive.
Mr.. Roosevelt was described as IA
voring the initiative, referendum
and recall" Governor Wilson was de-
scribed as favoring the initiative,
referendum and recall"
Mr. Roosevelt was pictured as ia
foring the failing of the trust mag
nates;" Governor Wilson was pictur-
ed as favoring the failing of the
trust magnates," and so on from the
beginning to the end of the alphabet.
1t was Mr.. Underwood and Govern
or Harmon who were the antipodes of
the Rough Rider"
He was a progressive" they were
"reactionaries."
He was for the initiative, referen-
dunn and recall" they were opposed
to it. seeN
He was for the failing of the trust
magnates;" they were the tool of
those fellows.
And so on to the end of the chap
ter.
If Roosevelt is nominated the DEM
ocrats want to get as far away Ia
his prototype as possible.
The distance from Roosevelt to I'm
derwood or Harmon is about the dis
lance from the orient to the occident.

COUNTRY AGAIN LOOKS GOOD
TO SOUTH
Underwood Very Strong-W. n
PIeasants Declares South Has
lie Onnortunitv

IT'S opportunity
Nowhere except in the south does
one hear expressed lack of confidence
in Oscar Underwood's ability to win
for the democrats in the coming pres
idential election, according to w. H.
Peasants, vice president and general
manager of the Ocean Steamship
Company, says the Savannah News.
Fifty years ago. said Mr.. Pleas
ants recently, "the country was dis
posed to look to the south in every
great crisis, and it must be said that
the south always met these situations.
creditably. Let's forget the last fiji
ty years and forget, as the country
with rare exceptions has forgotten,
all that has transpired, and in this
emergency look to the south again.
1.-The south formerly furnished
most of the countrys statesmen.
The democratic party has always re-
ceived its principal support in the
south, and for this reason is entitled
to consideration.
In the north they are asking this
question: Why talk about Harmon,
Clark and Wilson? Why not nomi-
nate Underwood, man who has
made no enemies? And invariably
the southerners will lose courage and
reply He's from the south, and we
don't think he can be elected
"Underwood's remarkable record
and undisputed ability as a leader
and legislator has given him the
recognition of all safe and thinking
people and because he is from the
south is one of the reasons why he
can be elected president.
I'm times like these, when the
country is beset with demagogues and
all manner of dangerous dogmas, the
people demand a thinker and a lead
er a man like Underwood, young, vi
tai, resourceful, masterful and able.
If the people could get rid of the fool
'ish idea that because he is from the
south he can't be elected, the demo-
cratic party would have a splendid
chance for victory The old dogma of
sectionalism should be done away
with.
with a man like Underwood as
standard bearer, the democrats, | be-
lieve, would win easily. | don't think
either Wilson, Harmon or Clark oc-
cupies anything like as high a place
in the public estimation as does I'm
derwood People will tell you this in
New York, and they will tel it to
you in Boston. The fact that Under
wood is from the south is really one
of his assets, yet when you come into
the south the people here would have
you believe it eliminates the strong
est man the democrats have"
Mr.. Peasants says the New York
press seems to reflect a glowing SEN
timent that President Taft will be
renominated by the republicans and
that Roosevelt will bolt, precipitating
a three-cornered fight that will great
ly increase the democratic chances
of victory
Mr.. Peasants is here on a regular
business trip, accompanied by his
secretary. A. Mckenzie

THE THUMB AN IMPORTANT
DIGIT

Few persons realize how important
role the thumb has played in the
social customs of the people.
Erkskine records that among GER
tain classes of people in Scotland the
final settlement of bargain was al
ways signalized by the licking and
joining of thumbs.
Selden says that kissing the thumb
was a characteristic of servility. The
clergy, the rich and the great, were
in receipt of this honor from trades
men,
From remote times the practice of
licking the thumb has been regarded
as a solemn pledge of promise, exist
ing, according to Tacitus and others,
among the Goths, the Iberians and
the Moors, and it may also be traced
through successive periods down to
the present time-New York Sun.
The possession of the thumb largely
differentiates man from the brute Gre
alton. II man had been born without
thumbs he could not have handled
tools, and without that accomplish
ment he would have been but little
removed from the brute creation. He
could not have built houses, so would
have been doomed to live in ca, es.
The thumb gives tangible shape and
form to the creations of the brain. 1t
is the digit that keeps the brain from
being atrophied
