THE SEARCH BEGINS.


1t was ten months later when Norvin
Blake landed at Messina and took the
morning train westward to Terranova
AS he disposed his travelling bags in a
corner Of the compartment and settled
himself for the short journey he felt q
kind of irrational surprise at the fact
that there had been no changes during
his absence. The city was just as dirty
and embarrassing as when he had left
the beggars were just as ragged and
importunate, the street coaches were
just as rickety. 1t required an effort
TO realize that ten months is, after all
a very short time, for it seemed ter
years since he had sailed away.
He had learned little from the count
ess during the interim, for she had beer
slow in answering his frequent letters
while her own had beer brief and non
committal They contained hardly a
suggestion of that warmth of intimacy
which he had known in her presence
She persisted, too, in referring to that
imaginary woman and Blake regretted
ever having mentioned her If Mar
gherita suspected the truth, she could
not help feeling his lack Of delicacy
his disloyalty to Martel, in confessine
his love while the count was still alive
If she really believed him to be in love
with some other woman, it would ne
.cessitate sooner or lc ter an explana.

Governor Brown Declares That
Georgia, the Leading State
in South, Must Give Wilson
a Sweeping Majority = His
Statement in Full

Governor Brown gave out an inter-
view Saturday morning in which he
urged every Democrat in the state to go
to the polls on Nov. 5 and vote for the
Wilson and Marshall electors
In this interview Governor Brown de-
clares that the difference of opinion
which found manifestation in the pres
idential primary last May was in no
sense a fight against Wilson and Mar
shall. The result of this primary, he
says, simply indicated Georgia's prefer
ence of the candidates who were then
seeking the presidential nomination
The governor insists that when the
Baltimore convention nominated Gov
ernor Wilson it automatically became
the duty of every Democrat in the Unit
ed States to cordially and vigorously
support him. He says that in his orin-
ion this is a Democratic year and Geor-
gia, the leading state Of the south, must
maintain her ,merited ascendency in
Democratic councils by giving a sweep
ing majority to the Democratic pomi-
nees.
Governor Browns interview follows:
81 am glad that the proposition to
use tine pink ticket with the names of
the Democratic electors has been aban-
doned. There was undoubtedly seri-
Gus question as to whether the use of
this ticket would have been lawful. II

would have defeated the very object Of
the use of the ballot.
80 far as 1 am concerned would
have been perfectly willing at the polls
to have put in a white ticket or a blue
ticket or a yellow ticket or a blue
kind of ticket that had the Wilson and
Marshall electors regardless of wheth-
err the pink ticket had also been used.
The names on the ticket and not the
color of the paper are what count in
the election.
And just here let me express the
hope that every Democrat who took
part in the primary last May and every
other Democrat who can get to the
polls will cast his ballot in the nation
al election for the Wilson and Mar
shall electors. The fight we had in
the primary was in no sense one
against Wilson and Marshall. but was
one for Underwood as Georgia's pref
erence. Being a resident of Alabama,
the daughter of Georgia, we sentiment
ally preferred him. but when the con-
vention nominated Governor Wilson 1t
automatically made it the duty of
every Democrat in the union to cor
daily and vigorously to support Gov
ernor Wilson. 1 cannoI-be too clear,
therefore, in the declaration that 1 sin

every registered Democrat in Georgia
who can go to the polls in November
will cast his ballot for the Wilson and
Marshall electors. This is my opinion

WILSON EXPLAINS
RETURN OF $4,000
Says Bryan Was Misguided
as to Who Took the Inia-

PRINCETON. n. J.. Oct. 26.-Gov.
Woodrow Wilson in explaining a speech
by William Jennings Bryan. in Mich
igan yesterday, with reference TO pre-
convention contribution of S12,5OO by Cy-
rus H. Mccormick. declared that this
money had been returned to Mr.. Nc
Cormick by Cleveland P. Dodge, The
governor said he had not been con-
suited in the transaction and that it took
place within the last ten days When
informed about Mr.. Bryan's speech he
dictated the following statement:
Governor Wilson tonight confirmed
Mr.. Bryan's statement reported from
Oxford. Mich, that the $l2,5OO contrib
uted by his classmate, Mr.: Cyrus H
Mccormick. to his pre-convention cam
paign fund had been refunded. He said,
however, Mr.. Bryan must have been in
part misquoted. The money was re-
turned but not at my request. 1t was
done upon the. initiative of Mr.. Dodge
and Mr.. Mccormick themselves. IT
was characteristic of them. They have
illustrated again what they illustrated
so often while they were trustees OF the
university, during my presidency here
They. have always tried to act in such
way as to help me and yet leave me
free"
Governor Wilson said he did not know
of Mr. McCormicks contribution to his
pre-convention fund until after he had
been named. Mr.. Mccormick he added
had not contributed to his campaign
fund after the convention. The gov
ernor said Mr.. McCormick's contribution
was made as, one of group of Prince
