FIGHT IN PHILADELPHIA
CEETERs ON REFORM PLANS

Philadelphia, oct 2s.-Mayor Bianken-
burg's reform program VIII be before
the people for approval on election day.
The campaign has been enIivened within
the last few days and the fight between
the Fusionists snd the Republicans is
being waged harder than ever.
Probably the most important fight in
Philadelphia is-for councilmen, who viii
approve or block the program of Mayor
Blankenburg. The Fusionists, composed
both of old line and reorganization
Democrats and Progressives, have on
their ticket men who will support the re-
form movement.
On the Republican side energy Is being
expended on the support of men who
WIN defeat any plan made by Mr.. Blank
enburg. The Republicans now have con-
troll OF the council. Mayor Blankenburg
has given the Fusionists the backing
PeIiiIcaI Mud Flying.
of the city administration.
Charges are being exchanged with
more vigor than politeness. The Fusion
lists claim exploitation Of the city by
contractors high in Republican circles.
Republicans charge dawdling and ineom-
petency by the administration. All of
the charges are being Investigated. Re-
formers are using the power OF the city
administration and the Republicans are
depending on legislative committees to
do their work.
OF the four county offices TO be filed
that OF district attorney is the only one
of importance. Samuel p. Rotan, Re
publican. is a candidate for reelection.
He is opposed by George w. Barr, who
was campaign manager for Mayor
Blankenburs in the last fight for city
offices.
The figh; in 1914 for Governor, general
assembly. and United States Senator will
be forecasted partially by the election
of county officers throughout the State.
Party organizations all claim to be
strengthened. In twenty-five smaller cit
les there will be elections for the new
style commission governments.

What So Precious
As a Healthy Baby?
Every Youngster Can Have
Fine Digestion if Given a
Good Baby Laxatipe.

In spite OF the greatest personal
care and the most intelligent attention
to diet. babies and children will be-
come constipated. and it is fact that
constipation and indigestion have
wrecked many young life. To start
with good digestive apparatus Is to
start life without handicap.
But. as we cannot all have perfect
working bowels. we must do the next
best thing. and acquire them. or train
them TO become healthy. This can be
done by the use OF Iaxative-tonic
very highly recommended by a great
many mothers. The remedy is called
Dr. caldweil's Syrup Pepsin and has
been on the market for two genera
tions. II can be bought conveniently
at any drug store for fifty cents or one
dollar bottle. and those who are al
ready convinced of its merits buy the
dollar size.
Its mildness makes II the ideal medi-
cine for children. and IL is also very
pleasant to the taste. II Is sure In its
effect. and genuinely harmless Very
little of IT is required. and its frequent
use does not cause II to lose its effect.
as is the case with so many other
remedies.
Thousands can testify 10 its merits in

ALABAMA SENAT0RSHIP
Is CLOSELY CONTESTED

Mobile. Ala. Oct. 26.-with Representa-
tive oscar w. Underwood OF the Ninth
Alabama district and Representative
Richmond P. Hobson OF The Sixth Ala
bama district opposed for the United
States Senate to succeed the late Joseph
F. Johnston. the voters of Alabama are
a-tremor with excitement over the cam
paign.
When the claims OF both sides are
worked out, they show nothing. this far
in advance, beyond the seeming certainty
that the race will be a close one. in which
Underwood's record and fame for
achievement in national affairs will be
matched by HObson's record for service In
the Spanish war, for close attention to
the affairs Of his district during his
terms in the House, and, last and not
least, his wonderful ability as a cam
paigner.
Mr. Underworld strength in his own
district is Of course secure. His repeated
re-elections have proved that. The in
struction OF Alabama's delegates to the
Baltimore convention for him indicated
that the people of Alabama not only re-
garded him as a favOrite son, but as
man whom the South should put forward
seriously as its candidate for the Presi-
dency.
That Mr.. Underwood has tremendous
is organization there is power behind
him. This is merely complimentary to
the strength OF his own ability and per-
sonality. and the force of pride which
the people of Alabama feel in the mar
they feel is second only TO President
Wilson in the administration of the ma
tional government
Yet Mr. Underwood has against him
man whom Alabamians wonderingly
watched as he developed from the simple
hero of the Merrimac. who haltingly told
q tale that thrilled through no forensic
finish of the teller. into the campaign
orator par excellence of Alabama.

not only in his own district, but

which he has constructed carefully
strongly through the years that he has
been in political life.

though he is a nationally known foe OF
the demon rum; not woman sufragists.

corners Of the old South
that he marched IN the suffrage pageant

Gates, for there are none such in Ala

II is generally agreed that until Mr..
campaign plans are better

GARDNER THOUGHT TO BE
WILSON CHOICE IN MAINE

Augusta, Me-. Oct. H.-The recent ap-
pointment by President Wilson OF oba-
diah Gardner. of Maine, TO membership
in the international Boundary Commits
sion to succeed Gen. Frank s. Streeter,
OF New Hampshire. Is generally taken by
Maine people TO mean that the national
administration will henceforth look TO
Maine's former Senator as the leader Of
Maine Democracy.
Mr.. Gardner himself is anticipating an
improved Democratic party In Maine. He
has been striving for il for several years.
but the opportunity has never presented
itself In proper form until during the past
few months. and now he is expected to
play a prominent part in the future de-
velopment OF the Democratic party in
Maine.
Obadiah Gardner is today the most
talked about politician In the ranks os
the Maine Democracy. That he is q
child OF political destiny cannot be de-
MED He is of the plain people, farm
er by profession, and was at the head OF
the safe Grange for a decade. He re-
tired from grange activity to plunge into
politics. which has kept him tolerably
busy for the last six years
He was the Democratic candidate for
Governor against Bert NJ. Fernald in 1903
and came within 1000 votes Of landing In
the Gubernatorial chair. polling the big
gest vote of any Democratic candidate in
almost thirty years. He swung the
pendulum of public sentiment to such an
extent that Frederick w. Plaisted was
elected n Democratic Governor two years
later. the first Democrat to occupy this
chair since his father. the late Harris NJ.
PIaisted, was elected to the Governorship
in 1SS0t Gardner took his coat OF and
worked for the election of Plaisted as
hard. il not harder. than any other indi-
viduaI in the campaign.

.GAMBOA dixie BLAST
GIVES POET A CHANCE
Presidents Touching Button Blowing
Up Dam Inspires 0klahoman
to Write an Epic.
LOVE EAFFAIR OFOCEANS

When President Wilson on October
10 touched in the White House but
ton that caused the Gamboa Dixie to be
blown up in Panama he little thought
his action would inspire an epic.
An Oklahoma poet has written to the
President that he read about the eN-
plosion Saturday. night, october IL,
about S O'Clock, and began composing
about . o'clock Sunday morning. BY
9 o'clock at night he had four and a
half stanzas finished. and the poem
was complete at / o'clock Tuesday aft
ernoon, October IA. Here il is:
Reared be (AtAntic) to she Pacific long time ago.
Pair maid, will you marry me."
She sighed. Kind sir. it might be 50
Could your face I only see.
Since then he's yearned to show
The fair one his rugged face
And O'er the isthmus strove to GO
To fold her in close embrace
Hush said good France. IN try that you
May soon together be-
Then labored she, the brave and true,
Till exhausted most was she;
When stepped up gallant Uncle Sam,
Who pity her took,
And said Kind maid. shall I try my hand;
You're tired, so you look"
The poet evidently was not satisfied
he indicates that he arose after midnight
and revised them thus:
And said, I'm relieve you, honored mS'am,
II you're tired as you look"
Then he went on:
So sweetly she unselfsh gave
The pick into his hand,
While all the other nations waved
And watched him dig the land
So Justify our Sam did knock
From early morn till night
To pulTerize that stubborn rock
That hindered lovers sight.
On October tenth CIsl3 he fired the blast
That blew it far away
And the lovers meet at last
Touched frst their lips that day.
And he bids all nations come
And merIymake q while.
To sse these welded lovers dumb,
Content to blush and smile.
Then come all men and wish them JOY,
And shouting let US greet
And praise the Lord that enjoy
The day these lovers meet.
Then long. oh, long. may they live,
And many children bear.
And Of their richest blessing give
To all men eTgywhere!
AS a song this may be sung to the tune
