The governor amt .Mr BrjMin will appea together at a big rally at Llticoln on tnat date, and thereafter, it is understood Mr. Bryan wiil give himself exclusively to trie campaign.

He will speak at the Conservation congress at Indianapolis October 3 and probably will also visit lies Moines and Omaha. Before leaving New York Acting Chairman McAdoo, who accompanied the candidate to Syracuse, said that he had been overwhelmed b> insistent de mands from every pa t.Lf the country to have the governoi speak at big ral lies. '‘.Must Keep Him Alive.” "I am obliged to tell most of these well meaning tiiends,’ said Mr. Mc- Adoo, "that the first and essential Is that we cany our candidate through the campaign alive. , 1 tel! them that this government could not exist during the next four yea s without him." Governor Wilson laughed heartily at this arid remarked that he is now weighing 177 1-2 pounds, having gained a half pound since Sunday. The governor observed that there was an impression ’in some quarters that he is lean and not strong enough to withstand the wear and tc-ai of a hard campaign. "As a matter of fact.” he said, "I am twenty pounds heavier than Mr. Mc- Adoo, who Is above six feet in height.” The governor will have plenty of op portunity to rest between now and next Monday, when he starts on his first Western trip, whieh is to last a week. He will spend the time until Monday at Seagirt. Progressives Seem Losers in Colorado DENVER, COLO., Sept. 13. —Races for the nomination for various state offices are so close that it may require the offi cial count of the vote in Tuesday's ele«- tion to determine them Late returns re ceived today from forty-five of the sixty two counties in the state indicate that the conservative Republicans have won over the Progressives. C. C. Parks, regular P.epublican candi date for governor, has a lead of 187 votes over P. B. Stewart, Progressive, on the face of these returns.

Woodrow Wilson is entire ly mistaken, a lot of citizens will think, perhaps, in his expressed no tion that "the people ate sick and tited of poli tics." Not since the Boston “tea par ty”—and probably not since long be fore—h av e the people of this country been sick of polities, in that sense of the word meaning wearied and surfeited. ML JAMM B JJTBsmq- I'o tiie American people, polities is the very breath of life! That may not be the smug and bromideish thing to say, but it possesses the sometimes en gaging element of truth, anyway: 'so it ought to get by. Nationally, within the states, the counties, the cities and the wards thereof, the American people are greedy for politics—thej’ feast upon it. To be sure, the banquet spread runs for many largely to crow and the crusts of disappoitment,; but the crow and the crusts once down, digestion sets enthusiastically to work, and soon the nauseating mess has been assimilated, and the banqueter is up and away again, this' time with visions of tur key and cranberry sauce large before his eyes—and Jje is happy! Mr. Theodoie Roosevelt is the mdst compelling personality in American public life today. One may not like him, one may heartily a,nd utterly disapprove of him. one may regard him as dangerous, and all that sort of thing. But to overlook him is impossible! He never has made the mistake of imagining the American people to be "sick and tired of polities?’ Not that, theoretically, they ought not to be sick and tired, to be sure, but that, as a matter of pulsating and wiggling truth and fact, they ARE not, never have been, and never will he! T. R. overlooks fedv bets—that must be admitted." for the record proves it— and he knows that so long as he can keep himself alivS politically. in w ill be a most enticing and interesting ob ject of public attention. Every now and then somebody comes forward in Georgia and vouchsafes the information that the people are "sick and tired" of politics.

A h:p of tin old iiba 8 By JAMES B . NEVIN. fain phases of politics. particularly when it tuns too persistently in one direction. But sick and tired of poli tics—the game—in its varied aspects? Never! No doubt the Olympian gods them selves would have grown tired of nec tar and ambrosia had the Olympian menu eternally stood pat on that and never inclined to corned beef and cab bage, with even, perhaps, an occasional slice of rhubarb pie. Also, spring would be but dreary weather if we had nothing else but spring. It is the possible monotony of one sided politics that would weary to the point of ultra-satisfaction, if one-sided politics continued indefinitely. But in Georgia politics never is one sided for any great length of time—and so Georgia takes its politics with a suf ficiency of salt (which is wise*, but not without that essential spice of variety that is a continuing guarantee of de light. The recent case of Slaton is beside the point. It was an exception byway of campaigns in Georgia—it was peace and quiet run riot, and like as not it foreshadowed a storm of a persuasion such as Georgia has not seen in many moons—and Sidelights is no croaker, the Lord knows! Let no man fall into the profound error of thinking that one good, sweet and serene campaign in Georgia nec essarily means another! Slaton had practically no opposi tion, after the Hudson campaign went onto the rocks—but even that, in the philosophy of the asphyxiated opposi tion. was more its misfortune than its fault. And while yet the cooing of the peace dove smites musically upon the ear of those who like that sort of thing, the little cloud no larger than a man's hand MAY be discerned on the hori zon, if gentle readers be so hard hearted as to look in that direction vol untarily, as some, in the nature of their business, are required to look search ingly pretty much all the time. Mr. Taft is convinced, beyond the shadow of a doubt, that* the people are "sick and tired of politics." He does not permit himself to believe that, maybe, it is Taft of whom the people are sick and tired —with all due respect to the president. Mr. Wilson also finds the people sick and tired. The buoyant, pugnacious, grand standiforous Mr. Roosevelt alone can discover no single symptom of sickness or extreme weariness in them! And. whichever way the wind sets, really, the.

ANGLIN MAY SUE FOR LOVE THEFT W. R. Jester, Whose Charges Against Irate Husband Fell Flat, Faces $25,000 Suit. W. R. Jester, the Atlanta .. whose affair with the wife of Join ■’ Anglin ttfok the couple through a ( . z . en states and across the conti faces a threatened suit of s2s,o’c i, v Anglin for alienation of affection f lowing the loss of Jester’s suit against Anglin in the Macon city court yester day. Both men are in Atlanta toda and Anglin is said to be preparing ' .. suit. The Macon trial was the out' come of an attack on Jester by A'tg,ni in the . streets of Macon last Oct ,be and was one of the most sensational ever heard in Bibb county. The jury returned a verdict vindicat. ing Anglin, and asked permission to deflate Jester’s prosecution a maliei oUa one. In order.that the heavy costs the suit might be charged to the \t lanta contractor. This was not p.r’ mitted bv the court. Jester was given the most scathing denunciation in the history of the Bibb county courts John P. Ross, attorney for Anglin, called Jester every name which possible- could be pronounced in court, and Jester sat within a few feet of the lawyer anh merely smiled. The charge of Jester was that when he met Anglin on the street in Macon the latter drew a pistol and gave him a terrible beating. Though the charges were well substantiated, the jury ev - dently believed Anglin justified in u, attack on the man who had he be lieved, tried to rob him of his wife The story of the Jester-Anglin affair became known to the public when M - Anglin left her husband In El Pas - Texas, and went to visit her mother in San Francisco. She met Jester there, and returned on the same train to At lanta and Macon. Anglin gave chase, but arrived in San Francisco only to learn that his wife had disappeared. He took the trail again and followed bis w-ife and Jester across the continent to Macon. He met the pair there, and ii was then that he tried to kill the man who had robbed him of his wife. Al! these facts were brought out in detail at the trial. The testimony of a hotel clerk that Jester and Mrs. Anglin reg istered at the hotel last October under assumed names was one of the princi pal bits of evidence brought out at the trial. Attorney Ross declared to the ju,-. that Jjester, a man of wealth, was hounding Anglin through the courts in order to crush him and pave the wav for closer intimacy with Mrs. Anglin Her husband is suing for divorce and already has obtained one decree. 54 A shameless beggar must hav short denial. 55 Great engines turn on smal.
