WASHINGTON.-If the democratic
presidential nomination goes to either
Senator James A. Reed or Governor
Alfred E. Smith, the 1928 sentiments
OF the brass industry will be easy to
predict.
For if either of these gents comes
to live in the White House, there is
going to be demand for a large sup
ply Of such brass receptacles as are
seen most often in male smoking
rooms and male barber shops.
Reed and Smith are two rugged,
fighting he-guys One of them ped
died fish and newspapers on city
streets in his youth and the other hoed
corn and pulled weeds on farm.
Thus it is no cause for astonishment
to find them today the two foremost
eXponents in national politics of the

After Five Police
Shot, Negro, Bullet
Ridden, Dragged Out

EVANSVILLE, Ind. Sept. 5 (R-The
body of Wesley Cooksey, negro, 40
years old, riddled with bullets, was
dragged from his burning home here
tonight after dozens of tear bombs
had been hurled into the house. Five
policemen who attempted to enter the
place after Cooksey threatened to kill
his wife were injured, two seriously.
Cooksey held the officers at bay for
three hours. Police set fire to the
house in an effort to drive him out.
Chief of Police Harry Anderson was
shot in the hand, Edward Sutheimer,
chief of detectives, was shot in the
abdomen and was in serious condi-
ton, Ray Langford, patrolman, was in
q serious condition with bullet wound
in the head. 1t is believed both will
recover, however. The negro at one
time was an inmate of an asylum.

Some impulsive persons will prompt
ly suggest that here lies an excellent
method of choosing a presidential can
didate, which otherwise is going to be
a messy and eart-breaking task. Let
Reed and Smith shoot it out, and may
the best man win.
Butt quite aside from the fact that
William G.. McAdoo is altogether too
dry ever to have any ammunition and
that Governor Ritchies ability is
totally unknown, there is another OBJ
lection to this plan.
Smith and Reed represent two diff

Smith has always gone in for distance

short strokes. Although none ques-

altogether likely that he would require
