A few newspapers and a smaller
number Of politicians are about to
raise a sweat" trying to define
whats a Democrat, anyhow" Nc
real candidate in sight of the finish
ing post will ever raise the question.
Any kind of Democrat is a mighty
good asset along about election day,
his dollar will be accepted for taxes
and the balance of us ought to be
content and let it go at that.

The big Panama-Pacific EXPOSE
ton is failure. From an artistic
standpoint it is great success, so
they say, but the attendance has
been light and the exposition is a
great money loser. 1t is now re-
ported that the exposition will be
closed long before the time con-
templated. San Francisco is too far
from the bulk of the country's popu-
lation. 1t costs too much to get
there, hence the attendance is not
sufficient to make the big fair f.
nancial success.
