BURIAL OF BROWN JUG
AND BROWN DERBY SEEN
w. c. T. U. Leader Chides Geor-
gians for Failure to Produce
Political Leaders.
BY the Associated Press.


CAMBRIDGE, Ca, October "a
Declaring that on November I'VE shall
have buried the little brown derby in
the grave of John Barleycorn side by
side with the little brown jug, twin en-
blems of a day that shall never come
again" Mrs. Marvin Williams addressed
the opening session last night of the
State convention of the w. C. T. u.
She attacked the political leadership in
Georgia and defended herself and her
organization for the stand taken In the
current presidential campaign.
Mrs. Williams. who is State president
of the w. G. T. u, declared that I'VE
are Christians before we are Demo-
Gratis, and where moral issue is con-
cerned principle must come before
party. No political party should de-
mand that its members vote against
their conscientious convictions.
1t has been sad, tragic, a disheart-
ening fact that in this crucial time of
Georgia and the Southland's distress
Georgia has not developed a single
statesman among her national repre-
sentatives-no one who, like Senator
Simmons of North Carolina, is standing
true to principle and willing to lose
their jobs for the sake of a moral
cause"

MOODY DECIDES
TO ENTER CAMPAIGN
Texas Governor Will Break Silence
by Making Speech in Re-
Spouse to Borah.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
AUSTIN, Tex, october 24-Gov. Dan
Moody of Texas, who, beyond declar-
ing his loyalty TO the Democratic
ticket, has maintained silence in the
national campaign since the nomina-
ton of Gov. Alfred e. Smith at Hous-
ton, will break his silence in Dallas
paign speech which Senator William
e. Borah of Idaho delivered there
Monday
The governor announced his decision
last night, but refused to indicate what
ground his speech would cover.
Before the national convention the
governor opposed the candidacy of Gov
Smith, but subsequently pledged party
support. although he did not take ad-
vantage of several opportunities to
speak in behalf of the nominee.
In statement issued yesterday the
youthful executive assailed Senator
Eorah for his attitude toward Presi-
dent woodrow Wilson during and after
the World War. He charged that it
was opposition of Senator Borah and
his collea cues that forced the war
time President to decide to tour the
Nation in order to eSpouSe the League
of Nations and permanent peace to the
people
President Wilson'S health broke dur
ing the trip. and he never fully re-
covered from the illness which forced
him back to the White House before 1t
was completed.
ST don't believe We need this kind
of spellbinder to arbitrate the family
difference that exists among Demo-
Gratis in this State" the governor
statement said of Borah, who spoke
under anti-Smith auspices in favor OF
Herbert Hoover.

DANIELS ENDS TOUR
BY SCORING BORAH
North Carolinian Charges Idahoan
With Spectacular In.
consistency
Nv the Associated Press.

by Ine. Associated ETSeS.
CHARLOTTE, N. c., October ga
With broadside at Senator William e.
Borah for what he charged was q
spectacular inconsistency" In the Ida
hoans stand on political issues, jose
phus Daniels, Raleigh, N. c.. publisher
and Secretary of the Navy in Woodrow
Wilson'S cabinet, rounded out speak
ing tour with an address here last night
In behalf of the Democratic ticket
Declaring he was not objecting to
Senator Borah supporting Mr.. Hoover,
nor to This Nationwide display of his
spectacular inconsistency" he said he
did feel that he (Borah) undertakes
TO lecture other men for alleged in
consistency he shiuld pluck the beam
out of his own eye before he attempts
to eradicate the mote from the eye of
those who for the time differ with him. =
The speaker then charged that the
1dahoan had voted agains the Fordney-
McCumber tariff bill in Congress and
was denounced by high protectionists
MY warm approval of his course at
that time Mr.. Daniels said makes it
all the more regretable that last week
he lauded the principles of that very
measure in his speech at Charlotte"
The North Carolinian expressed sur
prise that Senator Borah had charged
him with. being inconsistent because
"ss a sincere and lifelong Democrat /
do not desert my party because AL
Smith wishes amendments in the eight
zenith amendment. He declared that if
the Republican party was prohibi-
ton party" and enforced the prohibi-
ton law" he perhaps could be blamed
for not shifting his support. He de-
clared that he did not, however, con-
cur with the New York governor in
his prohibition stand, but pointed out
that the amendment cannot be changed
without the consent OF the people.

West. On that OCCASION when 1t was
certain New York had gone for Hughes
and he seemed to have won the usual
Republican States east of the Mississippi
except Ohio, almost every one took 1t
for granted that all was over Bets were
paid in some places, and many news
papers of the next morning announced
Hughes elsction Not until 1t was Ger
ain that California had gone for Wilson
by close margin was the outcome de-
cided, and for time it looked as if New
Mexico's four votes might be the de-
Gliding balance If Hughes won California
and Wilson Minnesota.
New York of Great Importance.
There will be even more than the
usual tendency this year to watch the
New York result, as most observers
feel that Smith must carry his home
State to win. Even a Smith victory
there will not be conclusive, but a
Hoover majority would perhaps send
many watchers to bed with the belief
the election was decided. As early as
1895 Jefferson told his followers tc
watch New York He said he coulo
predict all but three electoral votes
outside that State, and he was very
nearly if not absolutely right. Watch
ing New York at that time. howe, y:
meant watching Developments in it:
Legislature.
A change of 500 votes in New York
would have lost Cleveland his first
election, and there were many charges
of fraud. Very seldom, however, has
it been even 1ntimated that fraudulent
voting or counting has affected the out
come of presidential contest. In g
very close election the losers might de-
mand careful scrutiny of ballots In
some part of close State. There /:
no Federal authority to demand a re-
count, as the returns certified by tbs
election officials of a State determine
which electors are chosen, and Con.
gress counts only the electoral votes.
In 1875 the difficulty arose because
rival State governments existed ir
certain Southern States, and two sets
OF electors were certified to Congress
The electoral commission was created
to decide which State officials were this
authorized judges of their State cleo
tons. There was no recount of in
dividual ballots
The great machinery for gathering
the election news and spreading Il
everywhere by wire and wireless is al.
ready organized, oiled, and waiting fol
the hour of action. From the close Of
the polls until the results are all in
the greatest modern mobilization Of
all methods of communication, and thu
whole news-gathering power of tht
American press, will be at work to serve
the Republic with the facts of it;
greatest governmental event, a presi'
Dental election.

i ord probably occIrred in 1862, &C
cording to historical researches by
o. G.. Libby, head of the history depart
ment, state university. DR.. Libby tells
about 1t in connection with the FISK ex-
petition of that year, which crossed the
Dakota prairies en- route to the gold helds
of Montana and Idaho.
Capt. James l.. Fisk was detailed by
Secretary of War Stanton to undertake
the guiding of several parties Of emil
grants and gold seekers from western
Minnesota. His work was to supplement
that of Governor Stevens in 1853 in lay
ing out a practicable wagon route from
the Red river to the Pacific coast, with
the idea of having this wagon road de-
velop later into a transcontinental rail-
way.
June 16, 1862. he left st. Paul with a
military escort Of so men. Emigrants
and gold seekers made up a wagon train
containing 1870 persons and 80 yoke OF
oxen.
The expedition was described as de-
signed ito afford guidance and protec-
ton to. emigrants and at the same time
test the practicability Of this northern
route for future emigration"
Bottineau Is Guide
Pierre Bottineau, we'll known Chippewa
guide, was selected as chief scout and
Interpreter. The commander organized
his party carefully and included among
his assistants q surveyor, physician and
a secretary to keep the journal OF the
expedition.
The Fourth of July was celebrated at
Fort Abercrombit, the day being honored
by a program in which officers and SOL
diers of the post took a prominent part.
At this point, Captain Fisk added a IL
pound howitzer and an artillery squad
to his guard for protection OF emigrants
who were afraid to venture into hunting
grounds of Sioux Indians.
Since there were a number Nof men In
the train skilled in the use OF axes, larg-
er streams we're crossed by rude spans
built by these pioneer bridge builders.
The Maple, the Cheyenne and the Mouse
rivers were thus bridged and crossed by
the entire wagon train.
The Journalist of the expedition. S. r.
Bond, kept entries of all the more i'm
portant events of the trip and entered
in his diary also such interesting items
as buffalo hunts, an unusual display OF
northern lights and meetings With lndl
ans At the second crossing of the Shey-
n n river, about 80 miles south OF Lake
Jesse now in Griggs county, the Journal
list records a prairie wedding. He says:
