community, having lived ihere 34
years. He was a member of Camp

prominent in the affairs of that

him and his county large measures
of success. '•

acquaintances are /sending mes
sages of sympathy to the bereaved
family.

cery business here during many
years, lately having occupied a

ating under the name cf “Barker
Grocery Co.” Prior to that time he

be conducted, Mr. Barker, said to
day , upon a cash basis, with a full

ways on hand.
“No Compromise”
Says Davis
(Continued From Page One)
principles of the Democratis party
—honestly in government, that
public office is a public trust,
equal rights to all men and spe
cial privilege to none, fair and
equal taxation, an open door to op
portunity to the humbles: citizen in
all the land, liberty at home and
courage and honor and helpfulness
abroad —these principles are as
dear to the East as to the West
and revered by the North and the
South.
“And this great army is ready to
battle again to any who chal
lenge any part of it. On this plat
form all progressives can {stand,;
to this banner all liberals can rally
and for this cause all Democrats
can and I know will stand united.
“I know this convention has had
its differences, but all these things
were but the thunderstorms that
cleared the clouds away and left
shining on us the sun of coming
victory and success.
“When I am duly advised of the
nomination it will be my duty to
speak further on these and kindred
themes. I shall, therefore, do no
more at the moment than to ex
press my appreciation and to ex
press my confidence that I shall
head in this campaign a united, a
millitant, and a victorious party.”
NO COMPROMISE WITH
REACTION, SAYS DAVIS
NEW YORK, July 10.—In a
! statement issued here late last
night, John W. Davis, the Democra
tic presidential nominee, said:
“There can be no compromist
with reaction. Liberal principles
must and will prevail. This is the
mandate of the hour and I shall
obey it.”
Mr. Davis asserted that not the
least weighty of the obligations that
had fallen to him was “the duty
to put before the country as clearly

as my powers permit, the Demo
cratic creed and the Democratic
policy as the conventibn has declar
ed them.” He said he had no doubt
that this creed and this policy
would receive “the millitant support
of all those who call themselves by
the Democratis name.”
“I shall hope to rally to their aid,’
he continued, “that great body of
liberal, progressive and independent
thought which believes that “pro
gress is motion, government, is ac
tion, which detests privilege in
whatever form and which does not
wish the American people or their
government to stand still or retreat
from the midst of a changing
world.”
