THE DEMOCRATS ARE UNITED
Dissensions in Ohio, Indiana and Oth

Republican Factions Are Warring

(he Situation Is Omnious for That

WASHlNGTON.—Coming—the us
sal quadrennial September scare of
ihe republicans. They have thrown
«conniption’ fits each September that
pryan has opposed them. They had
. severe attack in 1896, a violent
attack in 1900. But now the out
ook is that, this year, the scare
will be the genuine article; that it
will give the political doctors night
and-day business for a month or
swo. Indeed, the most pessimistic
republicans deciare that the scare
is likely to terminate in a four years’
nightmare.
Mr. Bryan has undoubtedly made
a good getaway. His speeches have
neen thus far characterized by a con
cervatism which stands im marked
contract with the ‘“crowm of gold”
oratory of 1896. He is ‘encumbered
with comparatively few dissensions
within the democratic ranks, for he
has learned through dear experience
the value of conciliation. All of
this, added to his ungquestioned per
conal magnetism, has helped to pave
the way for the September scare of
republicans.
But the republicans are far more
concerned with the dissensions with
in their own ranks. Tmn states which
probably hold the balance of power
factions of the party are at war. The
fight over Hughes tn Wew York has
in it a large element of peril to the
national ticket, as is attested by the
attention which it has received from
President Roosevelt, Taft and Hitch
cock. Nor is it to 'be assumed that
the decision in faver of Hughes’
nomination ends the trouble.
Condition in New York.
The republican 'leaders in New
York do not like Hughes, and they
know that Roosevelt does not like
him overmuch. The president’s de
cision in his faver was largely by
way of making a virtue of apparent
necessity and Woodruff, Parson and
state leaders generally appeared to
fall into line for the sake of political
effect. But the 'ergapization sup
port of Hughes ecan never be more
than half-hearted.
| All of the leadimg politicians, in
tluding the president, have found
Hughes not only unmanageable, but
urapproachable. They have no sym
pathy with his policy of ignoring
them and they find it hard even to
aceept him, let alowe shout for him.
Oxce before the president told them
16 stand by Hughes when he was a
candidate for the presidential nomi
nation. They did as they were told,
but their lack of enthusiasm helped
to throw Hughes imtw the discard at
Chieago.
In Ohio Senator Foraker has his
fose in the air and no one is trying
0 get it down. It is very evident

Swisher, a professional politician.
The Lincoln ticket is headed by Ar
nold C. Sheer. Both men have sub
stantial followings, and neither is
sufficiently a reformer to correct the
corporation rule which is the bane
of West Virginia. Both senators,
who have no hatreq for corporations,
have vowed allegiance to Swisher,
Meanwhile the democrats have
taken advantage of the dissension
and nominated Lewis Bennett, a
clean man without taint of corpora
tion service or interest. Mr. Taft
consistently declines to receive rep
resentatives of either republican fac
tion. He will take no part in their
fight, but he does ask that both
name the same set of presidential
electors. Even if this request is
granted the harmony in the demo
cratic ranks is sure to cut down the
Taft vote and perhaps swing West
Virginia into the democratic column.
The situation in Indiana grows no
better as the weeks roll by, The
Indianapolis News, the Fairbanks or
gan, in saying nice things about Bry
an, which is a fair indication that
the vice-president will not hurt him
self to help the national ticket. In
both Indiana and Qhio the situation
is complicated by anti-liquor agita
tion. In lowa there is ‘a factional
fight between Cummings and the old
Allison adherents.
Kansas Radicalism.
Kansas republicans have gone
against the national platform on the
guarantee of bank deposits. This
sort of move was downed with little
consideration wy the republicans ‘st
Chicago, but Kansas was under press
ure. On her southern border stxte
banks were %Yosing their deposis.
Kansas farmers who were close to
Oklahoma just naturally tretied
their coin t 6 the banks, where it was
protected by Oklahoma’s new state
guarantee, and Kansas bankers de
‘manded salvation.
Kansas belongs in a group of
states which have imbibed a Tiking
for more radicalism than is voiced
in the republican national platform.
Included in the same category are
Nebraskw and Wisconsin, at %east.
The leadter of republican’ radicals is
La Foli€tte, and he has a large fol
lowing in South Dakota and in Min
nesota, as well as in his own state.
Nominally he is for the republican
ticket, but the kind of support which
he gives it does not help much.
His radical policies were turned
down by the Chicago eonvention upon
the mere assertion of Senator Hop
kins that socialism was embedied in
them, Whether these radiecals will
vote with La Follette for the repub
lican ‘ficket, or whether fthey will
swing their influence and wotes for
the more radical democratic plat
form is still open to question.
. Wifti these dissensions and diffi
cult situations growing ominous Mr.
Hitcheock has demonstrate@ ‘that he
is the finest little traveler who was
ever thairman of the republican na
tional committee. He thrives in the
air of 'Pullman sleepers, and «dreams
to the -accompaniment of the whirr
ing ear wheels. Every paper you
pick up tells of his arrival at Newton
or Podunk or Washington, and his
hasty &eparture to New York or Chi
cago or Hot Springs.
Instead of devoting himseélf to his
well-advertised specialty of keeping
his cardl index posted up to date he
has revealed his social nature in mul
titudinous conferences from one end
of the country to the other. |
UNGRATEFUL PROHIS-
Do Not Appreciate What the Demo
: cratic Party Has Done for
Them in Georgia.
Are the prohibitionists of Georgia
ungrateful for what the demoeratic
party of the state has done for them?
The fact that the prohibitionists have
put out an electoral ticket in Georgia
makes it look that way. The prohi
bitionists should understand that the
democratic party of Georgia is par
ticularly anxious this year that the
national democratic ticket shall poll
a large vote. They should also un
derstand that the democratic party
has done more for them than they
alone could have accomplished for
themselves in a dozen years, or may
be a quarter of a century, with the
very best luck. And yet the prohi
bitionists have taken the field in
Georgia against the success of the
national democratic ticket, which is
inimical to the interests of the party
that so lately helped them to a great
victory.—Savannah News.

ENEMY OF COTEON FIELD CUE
TING CROP PROSPECTS.
Next Year Mississippi Farmers Wili
Diversify Crop in an Effort to
Driwe Out the Pest.
A Jacksen, Miss., dispatch saye
farmers in Yazoe and Madison coum
ties believe that their cotton fields
have been invaded by the Mexican
boll weevil, and have asked that:.a
special agent of the United States
department of agriculture be sent to
investigate.
~ An imsect that ®trikingly resem
bles the pictures ®f the boll weevil
sent out in the gowernment literature
on the subject are «wery much in evi
dence in the cottor {lelds, and are
playing hawec with dhe crop.
In other sertionsiiil is reported that
the erop eomdition is very discourag
ing and extremely unfavorable.
The young bolls arz falling off and
in some places blight has made an
appearance gmnd is tieing some dam
age.
The dreadful boll worm has made
its appearance and is doing irrepara
ble damage. Not since 1887 has the
boll sgorm been s 0 numserous and de
structive. Every field shows the ter
rible ravages of these myriads of
voracious worms.
The farmers are feelmg decidedly
downcast over the short €rop. They
say their only hope is that the price
will be good. Many farmers will
rsufl’er greatly if the price of cotton
'is not unusually gooed.
! The plant, as a rule, was late, and
the July crop was not very heavy.
The dry, hot weather, east winds
and cool nights have played havoe
with all of the late growth. Shed
ding has been generai thro*ughout}
the state and more marked than everi‘
known before.
There is pratically no crop left
now- except that made in July, and
so much of the acreage being late
makes the July crop, when taken as
a whole in the state, exceedingly
light.
Through some sections of thel
state the crop is not so good as last
year, while in others it is slightly
better. Considering these conditions,
in connection with the fact that there
is a slightly reduced acreage from
last year, it is hardly possible for
this crop to be anything like the
crop of last year.
But the farmers are being im
pressed with the belief that the in-|
vasion of the Mexican boll weevil
will prove a Dblessing in diguise.
They are now making preparations
to diversify their crops, to intensify
farming operations, and what acre
age is devoted to cotton in the future
will be tilled in accordance with the
cultural process to hasten maturity.

A “flossy looking” vehicle built to sell at a tempt
ing price is the poorest investment you can make.
It’s an expensive economy. Even the horse becomes
ashamed of such a vehicle. We don’t sell that kind.
Ours are the dependable sort with the guarantee
of a strong concern behind them—and, too, we are
here to make good if anything should go wrong.

Have pleased some mighty particular people who
discovered we are satisfied with small profits. Have

are used to. We cannot get rich on admiration, it
is true, but we will take a chance on selling you.
