The Coffns of Bradford county
went over to Jacksonville on Tuesday
and nominated State and Congress
sional ticket, or rather endorsed such
such candidates already nominated by
the democrats as pleased them. There
was but one exception made, and that
to afford a chance for one of the Cof-
fins, by name Francis P, who is to
run against Frank Clark. John P.

Thos. A. Edison, possibly the
worlds greatest inventor, who had
previously declared himself for Roose-
welt for president, has declined to
follow the Colonel" into the republi-
can party and support Hughes. In
stead he has come out fat-footed for
Woodrow Wilson. Mr.. Edison gives
the following reasons for his choice:
Not since 1860 has any cam
paign made such a direct call on
simon pure Americanism. The
times are too serious to talk or
think in the terms of Republi-
canism or Democracy. Real AM
orleans must drop parties and get
down to big fundamental princi-
pies.
More than any other President
in my memory Woodrow Wilson
has been faced by a succession of
tremendous problems, any one of
which decided the wrong way
would have had disastrous con-
sequences. Wilson's decisions
so far have not got US into any
serious trouble, nor are they like
ly to.
He has given US peace with
honor. Hughes talk about the
United States being despised is
nonsense. Neutrality is a nigh
ty trying policy, but back of it
are international law, the rights
of humanity and the future of
civilization.
Roosevelt was my choice. He
has had experience and is one of
the best of Americans, but the
machine controlled Republican
party would not have him. There

He Can't Deny It

Orlando Reporter Star: Sidney j.
Cats is a hard candidate for his man
ayers to train. He makes a state
ment at one place and denies at the
next that he said it, according to his
fancy. He now denies that he made
any attack on the high school girls of
Florida, but his speech in Jacksonville
was geographically reported, and
these are his words, which he cannot
deny:
81 don't know how it is here in your
city, but all throughout the state the
high-school girl graduates stand on
the street corners with their dresses
cut as low as possible at the top, and
as high as possible at the bottom,
hang around the ice cream parlors
and soft drink stands to catch fell
lows for treats, and go joy-riding
with men, Indifferent as to whether
they are married or not"
And this ghoulish gush of calumny
was applauded long and loud by a
crowd of enthusiastic adherents.
Here is a professed minister of the
gospel with the heart of a hyena and
the soul of satin belching forth foul
ISLANDERS like a hot blast from hell to
blacken the characters and blight the
lives of the sweet girl graduates of

honor against our daughters and sis

Fair to All PARTIES

Live Oak Democrat: The Demo-
crat believes there were great ma
ny unintentional errors made in count
ing and tabulating the result of the
late primary election in many of the
precincts in this State. The count
ing of the ballots cast under the pres
ent Bryan primary election law is a
very tedious and complicated PROPOSE
ton. A recount of the votes, honest.
ly made under order of the court, is
in our opinion, perfectly legitimate
and fair to all parties. No reason
able man will, or should object to un-
intentional errors being corrected. If,
after such corrections have been
made, Knott is found to be the Dem
ocrat nominee, the Democrat will sup
port him, and if Cats is found to be
the higher man, he will receive our
support. In other words, this paper
will support the Democrat nominee.

Live Oak Democrat: The Sarasota

welcome in Florida ?" The Democrat
would not attempt to answer for the
entire State, but speaking for this
section of Florida, we beg to state
that any good, honest, industrious
man will find hearty welcome wheth-
err he be Catholic, Methodist. Baptst,
Christian, Christian Advent, Presbyte-

stration; in fact he need not be a
member of any Christian denomina-
ton. If he is a good, honest citizen,
that is all that is necessary for him
to find welcome here. Some Of

Low Salaries In Greece.

No doubt Greek officers. who are
very badly paid AS compared with the
English standard, console themselves
with the knowledge that they are
probably as we'll or in the army as
they would be in any other profession.
for salaries in Greece are all ridicu-
lousy low as gagged By those in Great
Britain. The highest judges. for ex-
ample. do not get much more than 900

grown In pots or In the open ground In
regions wherrsthere are three months

the apple and the peach. which ripen

PROVING
SUCCESS

1t was a rare treat to those present
at the Scottish Rite banquet last eve-
nlng to listen to he scholarly address
of Rev. DR.. Aaron MEG. Beede, who
was he orator of the occasion. He held
his listeners spellbound, with his po-
etry and his wit, and all seemed sorry
when he finished the talk.
The occasion was the banquet to the
members who took the degrees be-
tween July 1, 1907, and June 80, 1909,
and quite a number of these brethren
were present. Professor Arvold was
the chairman Of the general committee
on arrangements and acted as toast
master. and after a song by the Scot
tish Rite choir, he read an appropriate
poem written by Gen. Albert Pike,
which was followed by a solo by Pro-
fessor Orr, which was most impress
sively rendered.
Fl. G. Plumley followed the address
with some announcemenNS1 and read
letters from some of those unavoid-
ably absent. He also called attention
to the efforts of the class of Decem-
Der, 1914, to obtain the pictures of the
first officers of Enoch Lodge of Per-
fection and the classes initiated up to
the time Of the permanent charter be-
ing issued, and asked the assistance of
the brethren in securing these por-
traits.
There were some 800 present at the
tables. which included many who had
not been able for some years to be in
Fargo during reunions.
Universal regret was expressed be-
cause Hon. George F. Moore, the grand
commander, was too i'll to be present
at this session as he had expected to
be. He has had to give up all his en-
gagements for several weeks and go to
the hospital for special treatment.
The eighteenth degree was beauti-
fully presented last evening by Hon.
J. H. Worst, and his efficient team,
and has been one of the events of the
week.
This morning the nineteenth degree
was given very impressively by T. /.
Lewis, and the members of his degree
team, and this was followed by the
twentieth, under the direction of G. P.
Brown. Both of these degrees seemed
to be thoroughly appreciated.
This afternoon the twenty-tirst was
presented this is probably the most
dramatic one in the entire series, and
was in charge of L. R. Buxton, as
lieutenant commander. This was ex-
ceedingly we'll rendered.
This was followed by the twenty
ninth, presented under the direction of
Fred W. Mclean. This was the Scot
tish knight of st. Andrew, and pre-
sents most effectively another phase
of the history and philosophy of the
Kadosh. The other degrees were COM
This evening the thirtieth will be
staged by four teams under the direc-
ton of Commander Buxton.
Tomorrow forenoon will be devoted
to the thirty-first degree and the aft
ernoon to the thirty both u&1er
the direction of A G. Arvold. At 6
o'clock tomorrow evening the closing
banquet will occur, being in especial
honor Of the class now taking the de-
grees, and his will close one OF the
most successful reunions Of the Fargo
Scottish Rite bodies which has been
held in some time. The attendance is
excellent, and the work seems to be
thoroughly enjoyed.

MOOSE LODGE
CASE TO GO TO
SUPREME COURT
Wltherow Announces Lodge
Will Ask Supreme Court
For Decision in Case
GUILTY is JURY'S VERDICT
High Court Ruling Would
Affect Many Clubs-No
Sentence Yet by Judge

Attorney James M. Witherow, legal
counsel for the Moorhead Moose lodge,
declared guilty by the jury late yester-
day afternoon of violating the county
option law, announced today that the
case will be appealed to the Mime
sofa supreme court.
The lodge was charged in an indict-
ment returned by the May grand jury
of being guilty on ten counts of vio-
lation of the provisions of the option
law. The case, starting last Friday
morning in Judge c. A. Nye's court,
went to the jury yesterday forenoon
and after deliberation of seven hours
a verdict of guilty was returned in one
Of the ten charges.
1t is reported that the jury from the
beginning stood ten to two for con-
viction. 1t was nearly o'clock when
an agreement was reached.
The Moose case is one of the most
important tried in the courts of Min
nesota since the adoption of the coun-
ty option law, as it involves the ques-
tion of the legality of clubs keeping
and selling liquors to it's members.
Mr.. Witherow says he will probably
not ask for new trial in the local dis
trict court but in the near future says
he will request the courh to certify the
case to the supreme court for a final
decision. A ruling by the supreme
court in the Moose case, whether it af-
firms the decision of the Clay county
jury or not, will be of vital Importance
to the numerous clubs in other Mime
sofa cities.
Judge Nye has not yet passed sem
tence on the lodge.
