warnings from within their own ranks
that the enemy is powerful and dan
gerous. The New York Tribune blunt1y
says: 1.-THE supporters of Senator
Harding will be most foolish If they do
not frankly realize the formidableness Of
the Cox and Roosevelt ticket" Cita-
tions like that from republican news
papers could be multiplied. Says the
Detroit Free Press: 1.-The San Francis

midable candidate within it's reach"
The Chicago Tribune admits that ire
publicans realize that they nave as
much Of a fight on their hands as the
democrats could prepare for them" No
where has the disturbing effect of the
Cox combination upon the calculations
OF republican leaders been more clearly
set forth than by the Washington cor
respondent Of The Providence journal.
He writes:

the democrats have launched their Of

Bride Ready to Jump.
From the Detroit News.

..
A strange marriage custom was once
practiced in America The '.run-up''
wedding was unknown in any part of
the world except in southern Missis-
slppi, but no longer than Is years ago
it was the way in which most southern
Mississippians of means were married.
Some time before the wedding the
bridegroom began to choose from
among his best friends those who
should ride with him 1t was consider
ed a great honor to be thus chosen.
Horses were carefully groomed and be-
tasseled for the occasion, the long,
luXuriant mustaches men wore in those
days were waxed and twisted, and par
ticular attention was paid to every de-
tail of the riders appearance. On the
given date the bridegroom and his rid
ers met at some secluded spot a mile or
two from the brides home, and at a
signal dashed away at top speed, hats
waving and voices shouting. Around
the BRIDES house a Gordon of outriders
was placed to warn of the approach of
thr bridegroom and his party As q
cloud of dust announced their nearness
the outriders went out to meet them,
whirling about and returning with
them. On the porch of the brides home
her party strained their eyes to catch
the first glimpse Of the riders.
The sounding Of the herald's horn set
all hearts to fluttering. In whirl Of
dust the bridegroom appeared snatched
up his bride, rode on ahead short dis
lance with her III front of him on the
saddle, then wheeled back and dis
mounted for the ceremony, for which
the minister stood waiting. Then came
the wedding breakfast.

Fair Play For Mr.. Wilson.
From the New York Times


Is it too much to hope the President
Wilson may now get fairer treatment
from his political opponents? He will
have but eight months more in office
During that period would it not be de-
cent to let up in the ferocity of attacks
upon him? No one VIII ask his enemies
to like him politically. Let them cher
ISM to their hearts content their pri-
vate hate of the man and their intense
hostility to the policies of the president.
But he is chief magistrate of the United
States. He has for nearly year been
fighting for his life in the grip of a
dangerous illness. He has borne his
suffering without complaint, yet during
that time the public attitude of his en-
emies toward him has been brutal in the
extreme.
Isn't it time for a different feeling to
show itself? Mr.. Wilson'S work is viz
tually done. Even if it be thought to
be ending in bitter disappointment, he
is entitled to the consideration due not
only to his office but to a tragic figure
Let no one think that his clear mind was
not aware of what was coming. Mr.
Creel has just published words, which
the president uttered on his way home
from France:
It is to America that the whole world
turns today, not only with it's wrongs,
Dol Will IT'S liopeS dllO grievances. Inc
hungry expect US to feed them, the roof
less look to us for shelter, the sick of
heart and body depend upon US for cure
All of these expectations have in them
the quality of terrible urgency. There
must be no delay.
It has been so always. People will
endure their tyrants for years, but they
tear their deliverers to pieces if mil
lennium is not created Immediately. Yet
you know and l know that these an
Gent wrongs, these present unhappiness-
es, are not to he remedied in a day or
with a wave of the hand.
What I seem to see-with all my heart
I hope that l am wrong-is a tragedy of
disappointment.
If any do not perceive in this both
clairvoyance and dignity, there is no
use in arguing the point with them. But
from now on the president deserves, if
not kindly treatment, at least decent
conside ration aid fair play

Pe|Iagra Still UnsoIved.

For many years we have been dis
posed to hold that pellagra was due
to living for long time on diet too
low in protein and too rich in starches.
Or to put it in more easily understood
terms, to diet containing too little
meat milk, eggs and butter and too
much cornbread and molasses.
Pellagra is a very serious disease and
IN certain sections is so prevalent that
1t constitutes an important health
problem. Certain sections, largely in
order to conquer pelagra, are going ex-
tensively into the raising of chickens
and eggs and the making of milk and
butter
DR.. Scale Harris, of Birmingham, who
spent some time in the warning coun-
tries of Europe, thinks this change in
the agricultural products of those sec
tons has been worth while for other
reasons, but will not make any i'm
preston on the pellagra situation. He
went to Italy in pursuance of the
thought that Italy, being the home of
pellagra, the starvation of the war
years would have caused it to increase
enormously.
For several years the Italians have
lived on cornbread. rice, few potatoes,
and other vegetables, and beet sugar.
They have had practically no meat, or
milk, or butter, and very little wheat.
AASS are very InuCn unQeFnOurlSIeQ, III
fact close to the starvation line.
What did he find? In Rome they told
him there might be some pellagra in
north Italy, but there was none around
Rome. In north Italy neither the army
surgeons nor the civilian doctors had
seen any nella pra.
The surgeon general told him the
Italian soldiers had not suffered from
pellagra. The draft records showed
that in raising an army of 5000 600 only
35 had been rejected on account of
pellagra.
In Coryza, the section over which the
Italians and Austrians fought for two
years and where the food had been of
the scantiest and worst, there was no
pellagra. In other words, the wave Of
pellagra which had swept over Italy a
generation ago had burned itself out and
not even the cornrneal and syrup diet of
the several years of war had kindled it
up again. Nor had it prevailed in Aus
tria Hungary or in those parts of Ger
many where for more than four years
the people had lived very largely on a
starchy diet with but little meat and
less milk and butter
We are very much in hopes that some
body will find the cause of pellagra and
a way to prevent it. We know that
many of the cases can be cured. But
while we are hoping for discoveries that
will solve the pellagra problem we are
sustained by the knowledge that in Italy
the pellagra wave has passed and not
even war hunger served to bring it back.

Mr.. Bryan's performances at the San

Ben Butler at Chicago in 1884. Although
fiercely hated by democrats of the coun-
ry at large, the Massachusetts demagog,

publican and finally bushwhacker, who
had been elected governor by a strange
combination. appeared as a regularly
chosen delegate and proceeded to threat
