The power of thla vaat area with Ita

suggested by a comparison of Its area

ALTON B. PARKER.
Alton B, Parker, chief Justice of New
York, as the dawn waa breaking over
the great Alouud City—tha gateway to
that wondrous West, which Thomas
Jefferson, the founder of the Demo
crat Id party, secured as a priceless her
itage to the American republic, from
Napoleon Bonaparte, waa nominated
unanimously on behnlf of Jtfferaon's
party, to carry the standard which the
gc of MontlceUo set up when he
wrote the Declaration of Independence.
Agalnat the movement for Judge
barker, a man sound In all respects—
there waa an attempt to array all the
forces of socialism, and all the teachers
of a falae political economy and all
their unthinking and half educated dis
ciples.
Mr. Bryan, who had mads public his
disapproval of Judge Parker, and who
went to the Cooper Union meeting In
New York to defeat him, failed Inglo-
rlously wherlever any proposition he
advocated was brought squarely before
the delegates of the convention. He
won nothing, lie goes back to Nebroa-
ltl» not even hla baggage saved.
The fact that the platform contains no
reference to the money question la not
an Indication of hla Influence with (he
committee on resolutions. It la the
ringing pronouncement, though In neg
ative, thnt the Democracy. North am}
South, East and West, la waary of Ury
an and Bryanlsm, and has relegated
him to thb everlasting rear.
But who la Judge Parker? Alton Tt.
Parker is a man who haa naver failed
to win the vote* of hla New York con
atltuency. Ha haa gained their confi
dence by his trustworthiness and coin
age In the exalted position which the
people of New York have for so long
a time permitted him to occupy. While
aa a Jurist he haa distinguished him
self, though at hla bar the greatest of
American lawyers have contended, and
while the whole country haa acknowl
edged him to be one of the ultimate
flowers of the American Judiciary,
there la another aide to Judge Parker’s
character. He haa In the past shown
himself to be a leader of men In the
open held of American polities. A pupil
of Bamuel J. Tttden. aa was Grover
Claveland. he la the logical and natural
successor of tha latter aa the leader of
hla party and the champion of Its prln
clploa.
It la significant that Judge Parker
has requested that he be Immediately
and officially notified of hie nomination.
Thla la sequent to hla announcement
that If nominated he would resign from
the supreme bench of New York.
Now watch him!
Aa he shall accept the nomination, oft
goes hla coat Lika Henry of Navarre,
one will know where the thick of the
fray la by the waving of the plume.
OUR SMALL SOUTH AMERICAN
TRADE.
Vice-Consul Handley, of Trinidad,
British West Indies, In a recent report
to the department of commerce and la
bor. declares that one of the moat no
table features of our trade with South
America la It* comparative fixity. Dur
ing the last thirty years there haa been
an Increase of only 9 per cent, in our
trade therewith, and the sales of 1890
were about the same as those of 1902.
Compared with the trade of 1173, our
1902 trade with the world outside of
South America haa more than doubled.
To the 40,000,000 people In South Amer
ica our yearly aalea amount to leas than
140.000,000. Thla seems Inexplicable,
and Is most inadequate and unsatisfac
tory. To Mexico, with her 13,600,000
people, we sell a little more than to all
South America. Wo sold the Canadians
last year a little less than 524 per cap
ita, and to tha Cubans, without a.iy re
ciprocity, about 915 per capita. The to
tal Imports of all the South American
countries approximate 9350.000,000. Our
share Is a fraction more than 10 per
cent, of their business. We buy from
them throe times as much as we sell
to them. We pay them about $120,000,
000 a year for their products, and they
uae the difference nf 180,000.000 In pur
chasing from our foreign competitors.
In other words, wo supply them with
funds which enable them to buy from
other paoplo things which we grow and
manufacture. From 1879 to 1902 our
trado with Asia rose from $19,000,000
to $64,000,000; with Oceunlca, from $4,
677,000 to $94,350,000; with Africa It
Increased from $2,600,000 to $83,600,000,
and with our neighbors on the Nortlf
American continent It ha« grown from
$82,000,000 to $204,000,000. During those
thirty years our vast trado with Eu
rope has «^>ublcd. and our aalea In that
continent now exceed 11,000.000,000
year. Of all the world’s divisions, our
trade with South America drag* the
moat. Still. South America grows In
imputation/ In the manifold wants of Its
people and In the volume and value of
Its product*. Of these Jroducta we are
fairly liberal purchasers. Wo buy about
one-fourth of all the exports. In the
last thirty year* we have purchased
from South America $1,700,000,000 mor#
than we have sold to it by direct ex
portation. Undoubtedly, says Mr.
Handley, a good portion of American-
made goods has found ita way to South
America through British, German and
French houses, which sold them and
made a profit on them. But even grant
ing that, ho remarks, there still re
mains much trade and a desirable pro
fit which might have been eecured by
American merchants and manufac
turers.

ATLANTA, July 14.—The local pa
per* today publish card* from three
outspoken candidates for the office of
mayor of tha city of Atlanta. These are
Harry C. Stockdell. John B. Goodwin,
and James O. Woodward. There are
two other announced candidate* for
the office, James L. Key and Dr. T. D.
Long!no, the former a councilman and
the latter an alderman. Mr. Htockdell
haa served the city for two term* In
council and one term aa police commis
sioner. but he never held any other po
litical office either in the gift of the
people or by appointment. Mr. Goodwin
has been actively engaged In local pol
itic* for a quarter of a century. He has
been a member of, council for one ».r
two terms and haa served the city for
two term* as mayor. Besides this, he
has held other offices of honor and
trust. He Is now a member of the
board of county commissioners, his son
Is secretary of Mayor Howell and hlu
nephew Is a member of council. It Is
the popular belief here that In the
event that Mr. Goodwin is elected
mayor this fall he will oppoae Col.
Livingston for congress at the next
Mr. Woodward is now serving his
thirteenth year as an official, of the
city government, for one term as may
or of Atlanta, and the remainder of the
period aa alderman or councilman. He
Is quite popular with what Is known as
the working classes, and has many
frlcndssind supporters among the busi
ness men of the city, who say good
thlngit about him In connection with
tho manner In which he filled the off
flee of mayor some years ago.
Mr. Key is a member of the present
council and Dr. Longtno. a member of
the board of aldermen and mayor pro
tem of Atlanta. For year* there has
been what Is known aa two faction* or
wings In the board of police commls-
alonera, one said to be headed by Capt.
James W. English and the other by
Captain William H. Brotherton. The
members of the commission admit this,
but so that the split is not In evidence
whore the good of (he city Is at stake
In the election of good men for posi
tions on the police force.
The fact that there are two fsctlo/is
In the board has the effect of bringing
nhodt a spirit of rivalry at every local
election, and both sides make nn effort
to get their men elected so as to secure
lhe control of the commission. If a can
didate ts a little slow in announcing
which side he la friendly to, the public
comes to his assistance nnd he is
promptly lined up either on one side or
the other.
This lMjIng done starts the flight. As
the matter now stands the |»eople have
credited II. C. Stockdell ns the candi
date of the English faction and John
M. Goodwin as the candidate of Vhe
Rrotherton end of the struggle, while
I*onglno, -Woodward and Key openly
deny that they are bncked up by either
faction, and nre making the rnce on
their own merits.
The primary which Is practically the
election, will not be held until aome-
tlme In October, nnd nt this early day
It ts Impossible to predict the result.
One or two of the candidates may drop
ou before the entries are called to the
post, hut all of them say now that they
nre In to a finish. While all of the can
didates itre claiming the support of cer
tain classes of citizens or civic organ
izations, the future may develop that
these classes and organizations may
split up In selecting their candidates,
nnd the vote of no particular clans of
citizen* or particular orglnaaltno be
cast solidly for any particular candi
date. From present Indications all of
th# candidates foF mayor will run a
tort of catch-as-catch rnce. and try
itnd get everv vote lying around loose,
no matter who the voter may be.
PEOPLE WITH EMOTIONAL HAIR
Londoners Who “Go Gray and Black
Again" Within a Few Hours.
Not only Is “emotional" hair well
known to medical specialists, but
•very hairdresser of experience recog
nises It frequently In connection^ with
his own customers.
With some peculiarly conatltuted
people the hair la affected by every
passing emotion, and not only does It
reach the extremes of crispness or
limpness within a vary few hours, but
It varies in color vastly. Thla latter
peculiarity Is *0 well recognized by
every hairdresser that some members
of that calling are prepared to say
definitely of a given ragulur customer,
“Blank Is not well, or he has some
great trouble on hla mind Just now."
Mnny a man who appears exceed'
tngly gray on one day is compare'
lively dark-haired the next, and cases
are known where the single white
lock* of hair that somatlmea are found
on a head otherwise w holly black have
disappeared almost entirely and then
come again. That la to say, the white
tuft has gone almost black like th*
surrounding hair, and hsa then be
come quite white again, and no on.
We all know what use ffhukespeare
and ether dramatists and poeta have
made ot the influence of emotion upon
human hair, hut one of the most cele
brated detective inspectors now a
Scotland Yard said to hc writer In re
gard to this very subject:
"When I have put my hand sud
denly onto the shoulder of a man _
was arresting. 1 have actually heard
th* rustling of hla hair, or thought
that 1 could; at least I have teen all
the hair about the ears palpably move
like that of an animal, and when that
man haa been sentenced afterw ard hie
hair, that had before aetmed to be
crisp and brittle, haa appeared dark
and thin and poor.”
Two of the beat known hairdressers
In London have assured the writer
that they have customers who go
gray and black again ’vlthln a f«nv
hour*. On* Instanced the case of a
financial magnate who came tn grief
and was tried for fraud. During th*
proceedings he went iron gray, hut di
rectly he had been acquitted hi* hair
returned to Ite normal color—of course
quite without any artificial mean*.
Onother strange fact is that there
are a comparatively limited number
of people whose hair will never take
any dye. no matter what It may Ke.
oucceaefully and thoroughly. Bottle
after bottle of hair dye may be ex
pended upon it, but it will never take
any pigment property—London Tit
Bits.
