prominent farmers from all Parts oil

complimentary remarks. The exhibit
is in charge of Earl S. Barton aud he
has been busy explaining the details
of the machine and has had many
splendid compliments for the Idaho
manufactured utility.
A visit at the exhibition resulted In
some startling and surprising state

is pointed out that these expressions
are only repetition of the statements

farmers of the upper Tammany coun-
try, who was one of the intesested
visitors at the exhibit yesterday.
81 am greatly pleased with the ma
chine in every respect and believe it
to be the greatest economical thresh-
er ever introduced in this country.
Farmers from all parts of Tammany
have come to the ranch to see the ma
chine working, and I believe that every
farmer who can find use for one will
buy, at least they expressed themselves
that way. To show you how well
pleased | am, l pulled into 260-acre
field of wheat and barley recently and
threshed the entire field with only an
expense of $50. Grain buyers claim
that my grain is threshed as well and
as clean as any they have seen this

Mr.. Mounce stated he would not

HIS PERSUASIVE POWER.

To the unsophisticated there has
been something uncanny about the way
President Wilson has induced demo-
cratic congressman even including
members of the ways and means COM
mittee of the house, to lay aside their
own judgment and follow his in pre-
paration of the tariff bill. Members
who had declared that certain sche-
dulles would work industrial havoc in
their district were soon resigned, sub
missive, meek. They bowed to the will
of the caucus as though they had taken
an oath to support it instead of the
constitution.
But Representative Donohoe of Phil
adelphia resisted executive seductions
and opposed tariff changes that would
disastrously affect mill owners and
mill workers in his district And he
Is reaping his reward. His recon-
mendation for collector of internal re-.
of the chairman of the democratic
state central committee has been fol-
lowed. President Wilson has not Civ
en- any explanation, but his Pennsyl-
vania spokesman. Representative A.
Mitchell Palmer, frankly avows the
reason. He says:
1T seems to me that Congressman
Donahoe is not in a good position to
demand that his recommendation |
should have more weight than that of |
the democratic state chairman, for he |
Is the only democratic member of con-
gress from our state who refused to
vote for the chief measure, in the demo
cratic programme tariff bill. Having
voluntarily taken his stand in opposi-
ton to the democratic tariff measure,
he can not hope to have that infu-
ence with the administration which he
would have had if he had Loyalty sup
ported the democratic programme"
Democrats often differ on a multi
tude of questions. But there is one
on which they are singuarly united
the love OF pie. There is low-brow
proverb to the effect that the way to
reach a mans heart is through his Z
stomach. And President Wilson rec
ognizes that the way to reach a dem
ocratic congressman is through pat
ronage.

began her outdoor work.

1t was while doing this that she
was seen by the United Press CORES
| pondent. There was no mistaking the
evident change that has come into her
life. The few months that she, the
| countess, has now been doing garden
work have evidently served to restore
her fully to her former health and
there was still evident in her hands
and face and carriage all Of the old
feminine charm and bewitchery which
had led so many men to their ruin.
There was evident, also, something
even more striking and unmistakable,
If even more indefinable. In her
coarse, miserable garden dress, with
the hoe in her hand, and the look of
deep contemplation and peace on her
face there was much in her that re-
called the deep dignity, the deep sin
cerity and the deep simplicity so evil
dent in the pictures of Tolstoy taken
in the last years of his life when he
sought to solve the problem of mod
ern social living by outdoor manual
labor
Talk Was Brief.
The United Press correspondent
was allowed to talk to the countess for
moment only and to convey to her
but single bit of information. The
countess speaks all of the modern
languages, having mastered Italian
perfectly in the year before her trial
and having in the year she has been
in contact with her fellow prisoners
at Trani learned local Pugliese de dia-
lect, one of the most difficult in the |
world. She spoke in English to the |
United Press correspondent.

Germany and France
To Back Up u. S.

Special Gable to The Atlanta Georgian.
BERLIN, Oct. 29.-Germany will
back UP the United States in any pol
Icy toward Mexico which may be an
nounced from Washington. This was
learned to-day from a source close
to the Foreign Office and at the same
time it was learned that Germany had
received assurances from Paris that
the French Government has taken a
similar attitude toward the Mexican
situation.
Through the Charge d'Afaires OF
the United States Embassy (Anlbas-
sador Gerard then not having pre-
scented his diplomatic credentials)
Secretary Bryan asked the German
Government not to adopt any Mexican
policy without first consulting the
United States. This message was re-
ceived and answered in a cordial
spirit.
German warships in Mexican wat
ers, It is pointed out, do not indicate
an independent policy on the part
Of Germany, but are merely for the
protection Of German interests and
are in American waters with the full
consent of the United States.
