VOTE HIS CONSCIENCE


 There is nothing in the action of the national republican party this year that in the least appeals to me. and having for thrty-two years advised people to vote consciences. I am going to certainly fellow mine and vote for Cox under the roster this time for the first time in my life.
 However, l am traditionally demo- crat although for the reason mentioned and for the further reason that l believed in certain things advocated by tNe na- tional republican party were for the best interests of our country, the tariff es- pecially being of particular interest to me, I would like to have continued to vote the republican ticket without break I would like to have continued tG vote the ticket because of my persis> tent advocacy of that party in the past, but there are many reasons why I can not do so.
 T would not think of voting for man for the high office of President who was so careless of his statements in 1912 as to stigmatize the greatest American O. his day, Colonel Roosevelt, as a traitor the Aaron Burr of the republican party, and who said. When the progressive7 come back into the republican party theS will have to come on their knees
 T am proud of my connection with the great Roosevelt in the progressive move ment in 1912 and what it stood for and accomplished l will not be one Of those to turn back from what we fought for in 1912 and follow Harding and Barnes in

The injured man w.s in an uncon- scjous condition when he was discov- cred in the railroad yards. He was ly- ing in exactly the position that the h ekwaymen had left him. His head was placed in switch so that train coming in either direction would run over him.
 Several arrests have already been mad in connection with the case but all of the suspects are being held on charges of being dangerous and sus- lpicious characters only. Chief of Detectives George Lyons stated last night that ne had assigned four men to the case who would work all through the night.

After having spent thirtY-two years Of
 his life trying to build virile republican
 party in Alabama, and now seeing 1t
 fall back into the hands of the reac- tionaries as exempl6ed by Senator Hard
 ing, republican nominee for the presl-
 dency, Joseph O. Thompson of Birming-
 ham, one of the most prominent repub- licans in the southeastern states, has re- nounced his party and will vote for Cox. Cox is progressive" says Mir. Thomp- son, "and stands for the things that the progressive republicans stood for in 1912
 and 1916, Still holding to the views that l held in 1912 and 1916, l cannot bring my self to the point of voting for the re- actmary Harding
 MT. Thompson was chairman of the state republican committee eight years, collector of internal revenue for nearly ten years under the administrations of Roosevelt and Taft was referee of pa tronage under the Roosevelt administra- | tion and during the Taft administration until in 1912 he announced his determlna- l ton to support Roosevelt, who led the | progressive reVo olt against the republican | candidate that year. He was the re-
 publican nominee for governor of Ala
 bama in 1910 and for the representative l in Congress from the Ninth district til l 1918.
 | For thirty-two years I have been a
 strong advocate of two parties In Ala
 bama and the south, and have worked ! industriously to that end, During the l early part of that period I saw some real
 efforts made to build up republican
 party in the south and saw the senti- ment grow until at one time. back in the
 sos, it was so strong that f5 per cent of
 the representatives in Congress from Ala | bama were auti-democra tic. Since then, | however there have been only sporadic 1 forts to build up the party, tfe more ! recent fiasco being the nomination or 1 two candidates for the United States Sem
 ate by committee, and Senator Hard
 ing nominated by midnight committee 1 in Chicago.

CALM COUNTRY
AT A PREMIUM
IN SUMMER
City Girls Search for Cool
and Quiet Place.

The country may be the place to
get away from in the winter, judging
from the yearly influx of girls from
small towns into the large cities, but
it IS much desired haven when the
thern ometer begins to creep up
ward. A report from the Vacation
Bureau of one of the Y. w. c., A
branches in New York city shows
1898 inquiries from girls of that city
during June for out-of-town week
end accommodations or camping spots
for. short vacation periods. The num-
Der of requests was. much larger in
July. So many Inquiries have come
in for weekend accomm odations that
the camp department of this associa-
ton, which started only to answer
requests for Y. w. c. A. camps, is to
be enlarged next year to- handle this
weekend problem. New York news
papers are suggesting in their editor
ia1 columns that srnaS towns near
the city might make profit for them
selves and give benefit to city dwell
ers by needing this wholesale cry for

HAD NEVER SEEN A LAKE.

A woman was discovered in Gary,
Ind, the other day, by a Y. W. C. A.
worker among foreign-speaking peo-
pie, who had never seen a lake. And
Gary ia on Lake Michigan. The lady
in question, however, lived with her
husbaH1 and family on the south side
of the city and had not happened
to travel that far. This information
with otter facts similarly astounding
was brought to light when an effort
was made recently by the Y. w. c. A.
department for foreign-born women
to arrange short summer outings for
women and their children. The Gary
Association has rented a cottage on
the Lake front which accommodate
two families at once and is scheduled
for the entire summer for foreign
speaking women, some of whom have
not had a vacation in years.

KEEP CHILDREN
out OF STREETS

Vacation days bring again the
problem of keeping children off the
streets That this is community
responsibility is made clear in sug-
gested standards for children's play
published in standards of Child Wei
fare by the Children's Bureau of the
U. S. Department of Labor. These
standards cover in detail the subject
of organized recreation for city GILL
dren only, but it is hoped that in the
near future similar standards will be
worked out for rural children, whose
need for wholesome recreation under
intelligent leadership is as great as
the need of city children.
The standards given declare that at
least 2 hours Of organized play every
day throughout the year are neces-
sary for every child. To insure this,
there should be playground within
a quarter of a mile of every child un-
der years of age, one within half a
mile of every child over 6, and a base
ball field not more than a mile dis
tant from every boy. Old enough to
play on a team. One acre to serve
500 children is advised as a minimum
amount of space. This general play
ground should not be used for games
requiring a great deal of space. Base
ball, football. tennis and similar
games should be provided for by an
athletic field containing about 6 acres
Active play, the standards warn
should be carefully directed, and
vigorous games should be followed by
quiet ones. Every child over 10 years
old should have chance to play on
a team of some sort, and special
emphasis on team games for girls is
recommended.
Where lack of funds makes il
necessary to limit equipment, the
| standards point out that game sup
plies such as basket balls, baseballs
| bean bags, etc, are more importan
| than fixed apparatus. though swing:
and a sandbox are essentials for little
| children.
| Leadership is declared to be o
| fundamental importance and should
never be sacrificed to elaborate equip
ment. Experience has shown tina
spIendidly equipped Fairgrounds ar

costs. The auditorium will be hum
ming with life and action every min
ute of the show and men of national
prominence in the implement world
will be on hand for the event There

cessory exhibits, plenty of good music

infancy to the present Detailed pro-
grams will be announced within a
week.
