BIG RALLY
BROUGHT BIG
CROWDS HERE

The Democratic Rally in this city
Saturday afternoon and night brought
great crowds to this city. In the af-
ternoon Assistant Secretary of the
Treasury Jouett Shouse spoke as did
Governor Gardner.
II tell you that if President Wilson
had died, as he come near doing, last
fall, the Republicans would have
ratified the League of Nations and ac-
claimed it as their own," said Shouse:
Millions today are living in a FOOLS
paradise and are allowing the foun-
dations of the European nations to
crumble by attempting to keep Amer
lea out of the League Of Nations.
Gardner reviewed the achievements
of his administration. He said that
he had been confidently advised that
Cox will carry New York, New Jersey,
West Virginia, Illinois and Indiana
and he said Cox has Won three times
in Ohio and he will win again.
Cummings In the evening 90 a great
crowd, declared that Congress had
failed to pass a single bit" of con-
structive legislation, char~aeterizing it
as the "donothing" Congress.
He urged "the mothers of the land
and all rightthinking persons" to
support the League of Nations.
Let it be understood" he said,
that We stand squarely for the same
ideals of peace as those for which the
war was fought; that We propose,
without fiinching to support the only
feasible plan for a peace and justice,
and that we will not submit to a re-
pudiation Of the peace treaty, or to
any process by which it is whitfield
down to the vanishing point.

Gordcn and Earl looked bit white.
Everyone watched the hodja careful
ly as he tested the spikes and
swords. There were about twenty
five American sailors present by
this tine rs well as some high
French and British officers and our
selyec.
1t was not long before two or three
more hodias came in and with them
a bunch of Turks who were the
strangest looking a.ecilnens i ever
laid eyes on. | think they were all
hall-wits. Some had on fancy cos.
tunes but most of them were
dressed simply. They irlmedia civ
kneeled down and fer about half an
hour chanted and yelled the most
mysterious things, They swayed
back and forth and worked them
selves up into q state of almost
frenzy. Betyten times they IL tered
weird groa as and signs. After much
OF thls .dcantation the high priest
prouuc I'd long sword and ran the
edBe Grit several times along his
ton <ae. His tongue did not bleed Blu
wa little. Then he did some
'<icks with the sword First he
stripped to the waist and then-as 4
looked to us-stuck the sword into
his stomach, banging on the end Of
it, OF course it did net penetra e,
for II II had he would have been 4
dead man. Next he put it across his
body, edge UP, and two men carried
him leaning on the sharp edge while
another man stood on his back. Az
ter this sword business he stuck
some daggers in o him-how / dent
know, but 1t looked awfully real.
Then the hodja heated some polk
ers until they were red-hot and he
and one OF the dervishes walked
round the square tapping those polk
ers as If they were lcllypops. When
the priest came near us we could
hear very p ainly the sizzle when he
Tapped the iron and we could see The
! blush smoke come forth every time
his tongue came in contact with the
rod.
Now for the worst thingi Can you
imagine an ice-pick sort-of ms .ru-
ment stuck through a mans cheek
and the man nailed to the wall? This
poor wretch-a half wit--offered
himself and the leader pierced this
sharp piece of stee right through his
cheek. Another man nailed him to
the wall by hammering the iron ball
which was on the end OF, the pick,
Very little b,ood was drawn but
felt squemish and perspired quite
bit. Another man had a pick stuck
through his shoulder The ceremony
ended with more bowling and with
