COULD NOT RESIST
At the Last Hour Judge Harreid Left
For Chicago.

When ]. w. Harreld of this city
read in the Sunday morning papers
of the big preparedness parade in
Chicago, when he saw from the press
dispatches that it seemed like a
Roosevelt move and added materially
to Roosevelt stock in the national
republican convention he could not
resist any longer and left over the
Santa Fe at 3:16 yesterday afternoon
to see Teddy nominated.
Judge Harreld is an original Roose-
welt man. He stuck to him when it
required lot of courage to stick.
He was his friend when it endanger-
ed his position. He was for Roose-
welt when the old line republicans
were hurting treason in his face, but
he never did change his opinions, and
he is still for Roosevelt for the re-
publican presidential nomination.

He has played with the New York

There IS, by the way, a wonderful sim
ilarity between tho origin of these ball
players and that OF the beverage which
they endorse. Coca-Cola might be called
an agricultural drink, both from the ma
terials It IS made of and because of its
great popularity in the country as well
as in the city. For Coca-Cola, If ever
there was a natural, wholesome bev-
erage, is such-it itself is a gift from
Nature Made from Natures pure water,
favored with the juices OF fine fruits
and things that grow and sweetened
with Natures purest, finest sugar-and
please particularly remember this last
Coca-Cola contains no artificial swecten-
ing matter but just the best of pure cane
sugar. 1t is this fine combination that
gives Coca-Cola its deliciousness OF
flavor. its distinctively refreshing and
thirst-quenching qualities and great
wnolesomeness. That's why ball players,
athletes, fans-all classes and kinds OF
men and women drink and endorse Coca
Cola. Drink glass or n bottle and you
will be Just as enthusiastic about it.

CONGRESS Be
LIMITED To
MARKING TINE
WHILE MEMBERS ARE AT PO-
LlTIcAL CONVENTIONS ONLY
ROUTINE WORK TO BE DONE
SENATE TO RECESS.

Washington, June 5.-Under an
agreement reached by party leaders
to permit senators and representa-
tives to attend the national political
conventions, congress will do little
but mark time during the coming
two weeks.
The senate will not meet until
Thursday and then only to recess
again after complying perfunctorily
with the constitutional provisions
limiting recess periods.
Only Routine Business.
While the house will continue its
daily sessions, only routine business
will be considered and the proceed
ings will be virtually on an unani-
nous consent basis.
Scores of members of both houses
already have left for Chicago and
enough more probably will go to st.
Louis later this week to reduce at
tendance at the capital to the small
est percentage it has reached dur
ing any session of congress for sew
eral years.
Leaders to Stay.
Speaker Clark, democratic Leader
Kitchin and republican Leader Mann,
however, have announced their in,
tention of remaining here during the
convention period.
The house will take up miscellan'
eous unanimous consent bills Monday
including probably the conference re-
port on the Oregon and California
railroad land grant measure. Tues
day the diplomatic and consular ap'
preparation bill will come up and
after it is disposed of, the pension
and fortification bills will be consid'
cred. 1t already is evident that some
of the appropriations will fail to get
past both houses by June 80, the
end of the present fiscal year and
that a ioint resolution will have to
be passed to extend current appro'
priations.
Working on Revenue Bill.
Ways and means committee demo
Gratis are working daily on the ad
ministration's general revenue bill
but it's details probably will not be
announced by the members until the
conventions are over. 1t is under
stood. however, that the committee
probably will approve bill including
the surtax on incomes, taxing inner
itances and war munitions, abolish
ing the present stamp taxes and ere
ating a tariff commission.
The military appropriation bill vir'
tually has been completed in COM

Charlotte, y. G.

Charlotte, N. c., May 30.-Pres-
ident Wilson, speaking here today on
"World Peace" before crowd of
100000 persons at the anniversary of
the signing Of the Mecklenburg de-
claration of independence, intimated
plainly that not mucn progress was
being made by the warning nations of
Europe, and that the objects being
sought could be achieved better
through peaceful means.
sit is an interesting circumstance
that the processes of the war stand
STILL" he said. He added that "these
hot things that are in contact with
each other do not make much progress
against each other" and that "when
you cannot overcome you must take
counsel"
The president spoke guardedly when
he mentioned peace in Europe. His
utterances on peace were given signi-
ficance in view of the recent discuss
sion of the possibility Of ending the
European war.
Here in America we have tried to
set the example of bringing the world
together upon terms of liberty, CO.
operation and peace, and in that great
experience that we have been going
through, America has been a sort Of
prophetic sample of mankind"
~ would like. declared the pres
Eident, ito think that the spirit Of this
occasion could be expressed if we
imagine lifting some sacred emblem
Of counsel, and Of peace, of accommo-
dation and righteous judgment before
the nations of the world, and re-
mid them of that passage in scrip
ture, After the wind, after the earth
quake, after the fire, the still small
voice of humanity"
The president sketched briefly his
idea of what will happen at the end
of the European war, which, it is un-
derstood, he will elaborate more at
length in an address he will deliver
next week in Washington before the
League to Enforce Peace, of which
former President Taft is president.
He said, "what you see taking place
on the other side of the water is the
tremendous, had about said final,
process by which, in contest Of ele-
| ments, any gross process may be
turned into a Coordination and coz
operation of elements"
He spoke of the need for "un-
tainted Americanism," and declared
the European competition of ma
tional standards national traditions
and national policies.

Enthusiastically applauded by crowd
gathered from several states.
Before speaking he reviewed long
military, agriculture and prepared
ness parade, and afterward was the
guest Of honor at a lunch, and went
by automobile to Davidson college,
20 miles away, where he once was q
