WHY BRYAN WAS SUPPORTED.
Observing fiat the triumphant e1ee|
ffon of Taft "testlfle* rather to tha
fniMtc*a profound eenae of tha menace
Involved In Bryan'a ascendancy than
Sn any apontanaoua outburst of loy
alty to Mr. Roosevelt’* preference," tTh«
Sfew Tork Sun goaa on to aay:
Meanwhile It occurs to ua that
an things considered, tha South la
not so vary far bahlnd tha rast of
us in thla respect aa might appear
to tha unenlightened observer.
Thera are visible algne to the af
fect that Mr. Jlryan’a candidacy
was no more attractive there than
rtoewtiere. Tha South ta differ-
antly altuatad. It dwella politically
under the gloom of a miserable
and tragic oast It Ilea compara
tive! v helpless In tft# bonds of
trartitf >ns and experience. Nev
ertheless, tha Southern purport of
Dryas was but a languid and per
functory performance. Almost av-
1t obviously whittled down.
In Virginia U wae a thing of mera
routine. In Georgia, a narrow
squeak—for Qeorgla. In North
Carolina the Charlotte Observer
admits that •‘the Democratic ma
jority has bean reduced, and It te
to be feared that we have loat fhe
Eighth and Tenth congressional
rti-trlrta," and adds that "yester
day (November 4) In Charlotte re
minded one lees of Sunday than of
Thanksgiving day." Everywhere
among the newspapers speaking
for the substance and responsi
bility of the South we find Irony
scarcely veiled and simulated sor
row The nicfimond Nawa Leader.
Democratic te th* core In all
emergencies, save this:
• How many time* are wa to re
peat this dreary performance?
tlow much further ere we going
along tha road leading ua always
to a fall? Wa do not feel especial-
1y toirr for Mr. Bryan. He can
ptnnd if. With the prestige and
advertising that coma with the
ownership and leadership ef a
great political party he can earn
fiOO.CM a year or so with hie
Commoner and Chautauqua lec
tures.**
Altogether the polls have re-
Waled, to Pur IntoJiRrenre |at
least, a deco-seated apprehen
sion In tha matter of Mr. Roose-
vetfa cost-mortem domination,
but still more vividly an almost
frantlo dread of Bryan.
No doubt tha Run can find cor.flVtn-
atlon for all that It soya, but It re
mains trus that there are Southern
rewsrsp^ri, Including The Telegraph,
v.htog supported Aryan more warmly
thla year than ever before. TVielr
support was not "a languid and per
functory performance." but, on the
contrary, a posit It*, energetic and
bcpeful effort And the reasons for
this course are perfectly clear. The
Hirer tsrae being dead and burled,
they were far from dreading Aryan
e* “dangerous- to the same degree aa
formerly. On the contrary, although
they did not agree with htra In every
particular, they regarded htm ae at
Wmm a strong and patriotic man.
Above all they felt. Irrespective of
the personality of the party’s chosen
leafier, that the election of a Demo-
rratio President wae Imperative In

people away from the old. true Ideals

We may add that during the recent
campaign The Telegraph was a mated
at the vast amount of attention given
by newspapers and speakers te the
mere personal characteristic* of Taft
on th* one hand and Bryan on the
eth*r. irrespective of tasum and pda-
Hrie*. with the great majority the
men appeared to be the only Import

LETTERS TO SANTA CLAUS.
It has been confided to the ed
itor of the Record that Santa
Claus, unable this year to give
personal supervision to hi* mail,
has arranged with the postal au
thorities to Sava all his letters
turned over to his aecr< tary. Mias
Elizabeth A. Phillips of the Santa
Claus association, that the llttla
children who send missives of ap
peal may be dealt with aceording
to deserving.—Philadelphia Rec
ord.
The Record alao quote* aa follow*
from e hacker of the Santa Claus
scheme for gratifying fhe desire of
children; "Wa think that here the
American spirit of tenderness and
love of children can ettrcloe Itself and

The num’-er of letter* addressed to

Feme such practical errangement as
Is suggested for answering them In

MERCER FOOT BALL.
Under the wise and enthusiastic di
rection of Prof. E. T. Holmes sports
at Mercer are given a wholesome Im
petus. Tho baseball team has long taken
rank with the best col legs clubs of
the South, but football sspmsd to lag.
At last, however, thlj manly and ex
citing game la coming up to a posi
tion among the best.
The team this year has good mate
rial, splendid coaching end an enthu
siastic backing from the student body.
Rut more is needed—the harking of
the sport-loving element In Macon
and Southern and Middle Georgia. It
lacks nut-of-eollega enthusiasm and
gate receipts. It needs the hearty
hurrahs of the people of this section.
It wants more wearer* of the orange
nnd black In the grand itunj and on i
the side lines.
Mercer la a Middle nnd South Oeor-.
gta Institution. What mntter* the
denominational color? Neither alt I
tho faculty nor all the student body i

There Is nd sectarianism In sport*.' or
In Orcok root*,, or In Oauss's Inga-.
rlthma. The university course la
there. Middle and South tVnrgln can
at least rally emuhd Mercer’s Nine

Next Thursday Mercer plays Tech,
and a hard fought bnttlo will be the
reenit. Homebody will win a dearly
bought victory, and aomebody will
by a shave. Why not give the
contestants a routing crowd and M*r-
ctr a great grandstand boosting.
Hurrah for Mercer!
