Py WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN.

To every political observer two
things are apparent: first that the
contest for the Democratic Presi-
Dental nomination is proceeding
without acrimony.
That brings us to the second OBJ
vious characteristic of the cam
paign, viz, the shortage in Demo
cratic votes, as shown by the pri-
maries and by the various straw
votes recently taken.
Take Nebraska, for instance. In
1915 President Wilson carried the
State by Al, 900 majority; this year
in spite of the spirited fight over
the liquor question, the Democrats
poIled only about 10000 votes at the
primaries, while the Republicans
polled about 10000.
In Michigan. the Republicans
polled more than twice as many
votes as the Democrats. In Ohio,
the Republicans polled considera-
bly, more than twice as many votes
as the Democrats, although the
Democrats carried Ohio in 1916.
The same rule holds good-or
should 1 say bad?-in Indiana, CAL
ifornia, Massachusetts, and other
States where a vote has been taken
The Literary Digest poll, the
largest ever taken, reveals a la
mentabie scarcity of Democratic
votes. But more astounding than
the scarcity of Democratic votes is
the apparent landslide of Demo-
cratic voters to Republican candi-
dates. The voters are asked to
state their party Affiliations, ana.
up to May Is, $4,000 Democrats
expressed a preference for Repub-
lican candidates while the number
of Democrats expressing a choice
for Democratic candidates was only
a little greater.
Having in view the primary OBJ
ject of winning, let US consider the
relative availability of the candi-
dates, and it must be remembered
that availability is not necessarily
proportionate to merit.
To begin with, the President
need not be considered. While
vague hints and suggestions have
been thrown out occasionally, no
one claiming to speak for the
President, or near enough to him
to be assumed to express his wish
es, has announced his candidacy.
The most active of the avowed
candidates for the Democratic NOM
fnation is Governor Edwards of
New Jersey. The primary vote
shows he has a strong following
among the Knights of Thirst.
Democrats of his variety thrive
luxuria atty in the wet cities. His
propaganda, however, does not
take root to any great extent in
the agricultural sections and his
following in the convention will
not be sufficient to make him a Sc
rfous competitor for the nomina-
tion.
Governor Cox. of Ohio, is likely
TO be the residuary legatee of all
the other wet candidates and may
be regarded as the final rallying
point for all Democrats who, either
because of financial interest in the
liquor traffic or because of their
own foLdness for intoxicants, re-
gard love for liquor as the only le-
Ultimate affection and the right To
buy IL as the only inalienable right
guaranteed by the Constitution.
But Governor Cox's record is as
malodorous as Governor Edwards,
and extends over a longer period.
Vice President Marshall Is max
ing a feeble bid for the wet vote,
but he is hampered by his church
connections. His religious speeches
excite suspicion among those who

What course will the thousands
of girl workers in Washington
pursue as they are released from
government service?
Will they marry, go home to
wait" or continue in business
life?
In search of answers to these
questions a Sunday Herald reporter
called on Miss Fannie Wolfson, sec
retary of the Woman's Chamber OF
Commerce here and in close touch
both with the business world and
the government workers.
Home the Best Place.
Here is what Miss wolfson says:
Every girl in a georgette waist
and short skirt should have a hus-
band and a home.
Failing in this. she should enter
business or a profession, thoroughly
trained for her work.
No girl, no matter how rich her
parents may be, has right to be
idle.
If she doesn't have the job OF
making a home and rearing a fam
lily, she should either work down
town or in her mothers kitchen
II don't think any woman should
take a position away from a man."
says Miss Wolfson. She doesn't
need to. There is not a single po-
sition a man can fill that a woman
can't also fill. but it doesn't work
both ways. OF course. the place
where this is most evident is in the
home and, after all, that is the
biggest job any woman can have.
"Nation Lags II Home Fnils.o
The woman who is fortunate to
have the position of wife and
mother has no right to go into out
side business or politics; she should
leave that for her less fortunate
sisters, and there are many of
them.
Our power can't last if we lose
the home or let it disintegrate be-
cause of other interests. 1t is the
woman's province. If the home
goes to pieces there will be ref
eTendum after referendum against
woman suffrage, and the ballot will
be useless to US. We can't sustain
suffrage unless we sustain the
home.
1T is the woman with no aim in
life who has to find one, and this
is the woman who can and should
take up commercial or political ac-
tivity. / have been a sutfragist all
my life, but l believe a woman who
has a home, husband and children
is in, the best business in the
world"

Her Own Early Life.

over half a century ago a young
girl of aristocratic family stood
evening after evening under the
trees of her fathers estate beside

Girls Run Farm.

Every effort is made to have
Ivakota a real farm. To one girl
is assigned the duty of caring for
the electric light plant. to another
the care of the dairy, still another
girl feeds the torty-five hogs.
Down in the barnyard a girl stands
feeding the chickens; just back of
the house two girls are busy, with
a cross-cut saw getting wood for
the kitchen: over in the garden
patch a dozen are hoeing the rows
of potatoes and beans or perhaps
taking up the thousands of young
tomato plants for transplanting.
Each girl is paid for this work
and she is allowed to spend the
money as she wishes. but most of
them bank it to have a stake"

VINCENT CONVICTED
Atlantan Charged With Impersonatine
 Officer and Committing Fraud

Atlanta, October 13.-Ray Vincent. i. local barber, who, with the aid of a majors uniform, wound stripes and a brave show of overseas medals, claims to have sold $3OO.o0o worth of Liberty Bonds during the campaign for the fourth loan, was convicted in federal dis trict court here today on charges of im- personating an army officer and of using the uniform to defraud.
 Vincent frankly admitted posing as a major after having been discharged from Fort McPherson. where he spent brief period Of training as a private, but he pleaded not guilty to using the uniform to defraud. During his brief career as a major the young barber spoke on the sane platform with some of the most prominent Liberty Loan workers in the state. was the guest of honor of q large civic organization and caused estrangement between Mir and Mrs D. O. Dougherty, according to testimony.
 Dougherty testified that he was in France as '. M. C. A. worker when Vincent was posing as a wounded major sent back from overseas, and that the news caused him to hurry home He de- clared he found that Vincent had ob- tained his two automobiles, some s, iUJ in cash, the key to his safety deposit box and even watch, all of which had been left with Mrs. Dougherty. The wife told the court she had loaned Vincent the money to set himself up in busi- ness. after the loan drive was over.
 Vincent was sentenced to serve twelve months on one charge and six montns on the other, and was ordered to pay fines totaling $40o. He told the court his only purpose in donning the uniform was to aid the Liberty Loan drive
