THE DRIFT IS TOWARD BRYAN
in the West the Democrats Are United and Enthusiastic, and
Many Republicans Are Going to Vote With Them. Con
ditions in New York Favorable to Democratic Success.
Those who follow the changes in
political sentiment as mirrored in the
newspapers cannot avoid the conclu
sion that the drift is towards Mr.
Bryan. All who travel through the
west are impressed with the strength
©of the Bryan sentiment in that sec
tion. In the far west and in the mid
dle west it is evident from conver
sations with people one meets in rail
road trains, in the hotels and other
public places that the democrats are
united and enthusiastic, and that
many republicans are going to vote
for Mr. Bryan.
Before the campaign began the re
publicans hooted the idea that Mr.
Bryan had a ghost of a chance in
New York. Now it is admitted even
by shrewd republicans that he has
an even chance with Mr. Taft of car
rying that state. Conditions have
changed in New York since Governor
Hughes announced his purpose to
stand for a renomination. The bosses
are against him, but the people in
the rural districts want him. There
is a big fight on in the republicanl
party, thereiore, over Gov. Hnghes,’
and it is productive of a good deal of
bitter feeling. It is regarded as cer
tain that if the bosses can prevent
the nomination of Gov. Hughes they
will do it, and that if he is nominat
ed they will undertake to bring about
his defeat. Mr. Roosevelt under-l
stands the sentiment that is be.hind’
Gov. Hughes, and he is afraid that
if it is antagonized Mr. Taft will lose
the state. Therefore he has given it
as his opinion that Gov. Hughes
should be renominated. It is prob
able therefore that Gov, Hughes will
be the party’s nominee, and it is re
garded as certain that if he is the
party bosses will undertake to defeat
him. If the impression gets abroad
that the bosses are going to knife
him the country republicans will re
taliate by voting against Mr. Taft.
That is one thing that lessens Mr.
Taft's chances for carrying the state.
Another thing is that it is practi
cally certain that the organized labor |
vote wil go to Mr. Bryan. That votv,l
in practically all of the states, will
80 to him. Mr. Gompers and other
leaders of American Federation of
Labor are greatly influencing it. The
republicans thought they could di
vide the labor leaders and in that way
block Mr. Gompers’ plans, but they
have failed in their efforts. One un
ion organization after another is
wheeling into line for Mr. Bryan.
And it is pointed out that the two
hundred thousand or more of un
employed men in New York will like
ly be for Mr. Bryan. The argument
that a change will bring better times
is having weight with them. [
The arguments that will largely
influence the voters in New York will
influence them in New Jersey and
Connecticut. Therefore, it begins. to
look as if the entire battle wouldn't
be fought out in the west, as was
at first expected. The democrats will
make a strong fight to carry New
York, New Jersey and Connecticut.
A thing that is alarming the re
publicans is their inability to collect
a satisfactory campaign fund. The
financial district of New York city
isn’t responding as in former vears.
The purse strings of the rich men
are drawn pretty tight. It is alleged,
upon what appears to be good au
thority, that the republican campaign
managers have been compelled to call
a halt in some of their plans for the
lack of funds. The rich men seem
disposed to let the president manage
‘the campaign as best he can since he
didn’t consider their interests in his
policies. As they look at it Mr. Taft
has been chosen to carry out the
president’s policies. These rich men
of the financial district of New York
don't like some of those policies. So

‘they are disposed to have nothing to
do with the campaign.
Look at the situation as we may
it has a Bryan appearance. It is cer
tain that the tone of the republican
leaders and newspapers is by no
means as confident as it was a couple
of weeks ago. Their uneasiness and
worry are apparent. Unless Mr. Taft
does something to inspire confidence

$13,000,000 FOR PIPE LINE
STANDARD OIL CO. WILL BUILD
NEW ONE 500 MILES LONG.
Will Connect Robinson, 111., With
Coal Grove, Penn. Work Has
Already Been Begun.
| Not long ago the Standard Oil
Company planned to make needed
improvements and extensions while
material and labor were cheaper be
cause of the business depression. It
is now announced that work has been i
!sturted on a 12-inch pipe line to con
‘nect Robinson, 111., with Coal Grove‘
in the Bradford oil field of Pennsyl
vania.
The right of way for the line has
been secured and work hnas com
menced at each end, the intention be-
Ing to make all possible speed in
completing the contract. The esti
mated cost for ditching and laying
pipe alone is $6,000,000. In addi
tion the price of pipe, $6,000,000,
and the material and labor for pump
ing stations, $1,000,000, are to be
counted into the cost of the improve
ment, making a total of $13,000,000.
The Standard will make the pumps
in its own shops. It will be neces
sary to have a station every 25 miles
in hilly country, but they will be
farther apart in the level country of
Illinois, Indiana and the western sec
tion of Ohio.
The Standard recently added large
lv to its production in Illinois, and
it was proposed to create the largest !
long-distance lipe ever laid to carry |
oil to the seaboard. Oil is now being
piped from that section thmugh!
eight-inch lines, but it is believed!
it will be economy to handle the in-]
creasing production through a larger‘
line.
According to the repeort the new
line will be not less than 500 miles
long, and will be built with a view
to finding the shortest distance be
tween the two points rather than go
ing out of the way to take on the
production of some other field. It
will be a direct connection, or as
near direct as it will be possible forl
the engineers to find a route.
TWENTY-TWO YEARS FROM PORT
Ship Has Just Docked After Absence
of Nealy Quarter of a Century.
Twenty-two years is a long time
for a ship to be away from its home
port, but that is the record of a
whaling bark that has just docked
in New Bedford. The vessel left New
Bedford in 1884 for a voyage around
Cape Horn and since has been en
gaged most of the time in whaling in
northern latitudes. The ship brings
news that the whaling ships in the
Atlantic are generally making heavy
catches this -season. The whaling
business seems to have experienced
a revival, and with this New Bedford
is developing new importance which
presents some likeness to its old time
activity as a whaling port.

’THE COSTLY BOLL WEEVIL.
}:\n Interesting Description of the
Destructive Little Bug.
’ The boll weevil costs the United
States something like $100,000,000
\annually. His Dbattlefield extends
over a third of the southern cotton
'lands. and the finest minds of the
department of agriculture have not
iyet discovered a way of extinguish
ing him wholesale. But they haven't
given up the fight, as a score of ex
perimental stations in the south will
testify. Of the boll weevil a writer.
in the September “Van Norden Maga
zine'’ says:
“When nature designed the wee
vil she fitted him out with everything
needed for his line of industry—even
to a set of cutting and boring tools
which would delight the machinist.
His body is armor-plated like a war
ship, encased with a hard, tough
shell which usually prevents poison
from harming him. His long legs
not only carry him rapidly over the
ground when he doesn't care to
stretch his wings, but are also used
to give him a firm grip when he is
at work.
““‘His head, however, is the me
chanical wonder. It is attached to
the body by a kind of ball-and
socket joint, as the engineer would
say, that allows it to turn in a half
circle with ease. 't'he head termi
nates in a long snout, on the end of
Iwhich is a regular combination tool
with which he can bore and cut at
’the same time. It could fhot be bet
iter suited for his purpose, as the
daintiest dish to him is the contents
of the bud which forms on the cot
ton stalk and boll which later takes
its place. This bud, or ‘square, is
filled with soft juicy pith—the es
sence of the flower which springs
from it, and makes a cotton field in
bloom such a beautiful picture.”
TO ESCAPE AUTOS BY FLYING.
A Unique Bequest in the Will of a
New Jersey Man.
Congressman James Hamill of Jer
sey City, N. J., has in his possession,
and will offer for probate shortly,
the will of Jeremiah Carrihanne, who
died two weeks ago at the age of
60, He had no relatives and no es
tate except an insurance policy of
$6OO. Out of this he provides that
his funeral expenses be paid. Then
the w:ll, which he drew himself, goes
on to say:
“Knowing from bitter experience
what it means to be crippled from
rheumatism and be forced to flee
from the path of automobiles and
such, I hereby bestow what is left
of the insurance money on some one
who is trying to perfect an airship,
so that there ,will ultimately be less
running about the streets and more
flying through the air. I hereby ap
point my executor as the man who
will decide who is to get the money.”
The executor named is Edward R.l
Doyle. Mr. Hamill says that Carri-|
hanne’s aversion to automobiles was‘i
due to the fact that he twice narrow- |
ly escaped being run down by reck
less chauffeurs. 4

NOW THE ‘* LAZY" DISEASE
| :
KILLS MORE PEOPLE IN GEOR
‘ GIA THAN TYPHOID FEVER
The Doctor Now Treats It, and the
Old Remedy of a Slipper or a
Strap Is Not Correct One.
From time immemorial lazy people
have been execrated. Formerly it
was the custom to doctor laziness
with a slipper, a strap or a club.
But modern science has taught us
better. We now know that the nor
mal man is not deficient in physical
energy. The human species that is
unatrophied of age likes to be hust
ling. When a man is ‘“lazy’’ the pre
sumption is that he is suffering from
a disease that has only lately been
isolated and catalogued, though it
has probably given trouble from a
time beyond which the memory of
man reckoneth not to the contrary.
One Dr. Harris of Atlanta, secre
tary of the Georgia State Board of
Health, has recently made public
some important observations and con
clusions relative to the ‘lazy dis
ease” in Georgia and its effects and
cost. The disease is caused by the
“hook worm,” for which the scient
ists have another name that doesn’t
mean anything more to the lay read
er. The ‘“hook worm,” like many
others germs that have proved to be
so bothersome, is a produet of unsan
itary conditions. It cannot exist
where cleanliness of persons and
premises is the order, but it does and
will exist when and where conditions
are unsanitary and the temperature
is warm. It seems the “hook worm’’
is not fond of a cold. climate, but
least of all is it fond of soap and
water and good drainage.
Dr. Harris says there are tens of
thousands of sufferers from the
‘““hook worm’” in Georgia, and that
the worm causes hundreds of deaths
annually. We gather from what he
says that the “hoolk worm disease” is
more formidable than typhoid, and
that vellow fever does not do nearly
so much damage. The public fears
vellow fever more, because it oper
ates in a more sensational way: but
the quiet “hook worm” numbers by
far the most victims.
We have organized war in the
country against yellow fever, con
sumption, typhoid, measles, small
pox, scarletina and other ailments,
but as yet the more important “hook
worm’’ has not received our attention.
[s it not time that something were
being done to get rid of this enemy
of the race?
LETTER TO W. C. THOMAS.,
Dawson, Ga. : I
Dear Sir: You manage men and}
machinery; no-one knows better |
than you that one man is worth%
more than another; that one machine !
1
is worth more than another machine. |
Sometimes you pay the man more,
sometimes you don’t; sometimes the
machine costs more, sometimes it
doesn’t. The difference lis, some
times, two or three to one, and costs
not a cent.
So with paint, and Inore too; the
paint that does best service makes a
less first cost of the job-syou can
paint Devoe at less expense than the
meanest stuff you can get.
It is like a good steady man or
machine; but goodness and steadi
ness have to be paid-for in men, in
machines not always, and never in
paint. Paint is cheap in proportion
to strength.
It is pure paint that is steady and!
good, it is paint adulterated that is
tricky. There is enough paint in the
worst of these mixtures to look and
feel like paint, and enough adulter
ants (whiting, china-clay, barytes,
ground stone, benzine, water) to
make two gallons of one.
There are eight pure paints in the
United States: we know of no more;
there are 200 adultqrated. We an
alyze all, and know' what they are
made-of. Pure isn’t all; you want
strength. The least-gallons paint is
Devoe. Yours truly ]
