Other Party Platform Offers No
Advantage to Producer. He
Tells Louisianans.
XEW ORLEANS. Sept. 27.—1 n this
rigidly Democratic state Colonel
Roosevelt today made an appeal to
the Democrats to support the Progres
sive party. The ex-president assailed
the Democratic house for its recent at
tempt ter remove the tariff on sugar.
The New Orleans address of Colonel
Roosevelt, coming after his long jump
from Jackson, Miss., is really the flrat
elaborate expression of his reason for
asking Democratic support in the
South. He made his appeal on the
ground that neither the Republican nor
the Democratic party has a tariff plat
form that promises anything advan
tageous to the producer. The colonel
took the ground that it is time the
South broke away from the old theory
that, right or wrong, It must adhere
to the Democratic party. He argued
that the South, by joining the Pro
gressive party, would make the flrst
step in asserting itself in the affairs of
the nation at large.
Last night Colonel Roosevelt passed
through Mississippi. He holds no false
hopes that that state may be changed
in a short campaign, but "he does have
prospects in Tennessee, while Louisiana
is rated as a. state where Progressive
party principles may find fertile ground.
The Bull Moose candidate reached
New Orleans shortly before noon today.
He was given a cordial reception in
the Mardi Gras city and was put at the
head of a great automobile parade
•hrough the crowd-lined streets of the
?ity. The colonel was offered either a
prii-ate or a public luncheon and he
hose the former.
Colonel Roosevelt and his party will
leave tonight for Alabama and Georgia.
< in Monday the colonel will double back'
Into Tennessee, for that faction-ridden
siate. he considers, offers unusual op-
■ rtunitiee for the Progressive party.
Gov. McGovern
Out for Roosevelt
i ADISON, WIS.. Sept. 27. Govern-
Francis E. McGovern issued a two
'mu.-und word statement today de
leting that h< would support Roose
t and Johnson and repudiating the-
Republican national ticket.
McGovern was renominated by ths
Republicans apd indorsed by the pro ,
gressives. His stat- me nt today r.uis< <■
considerable comment and. there is n
report that an independent Republicin
ticket supporting Taft will be put in
the field by the LaEollette faction.
LaFollette, in the current issue of his
igazine, declared that he believed
IcGovern had recovered from his tem
orary dip into the “tar barrel” of
loosevelt support at the national con
e ution.
In his statement McGovern refers to
left as a man who "within the brief
istory of a single term wrecked a great
and historical political party.”
1 can not support him,” the states
man continues, “because he Is utterly
reactionary and grows more so every
day.”
Os the Progressive platform, he says:
The platform is superb. It is the
Wisconsin idea nationalized. Here is
a platform and a party personnel which
for high purpose and genuine patriot
ism challenges the support of every
thoughtful citizen.”

HOW TO FEED BABIES
Never give a child any meat. It
makes him blood-thirsty. Vegeta
bles. as a diet, improve the mind.—
D David Allyn Ghrton.
My little son has eaten meat since !
he .as four months old. He's gentle,
happy and healthy.—Mrs flora Dud
enhoeffer.
I
NEW YORK, Sept. 27—"1 would not
feed children meat unless I wished to
breed a race of fighters and blood-thirsty
men."
That is what Dr. David Allyn Gorton,
the expert in eugenics and octogenarian
father of the famous Gorton twins, said,
hut. fat and rosy and gay. Douglass Dan- I
tel Dudenboeffer. the meat-eating baby, ,
continues to offer a refutation of the doc ‘
tor's theory. Danirl is the gentlest and I
mildest of infanls. and if he is to become I
blood-thirsty later on he hasn't shown I
any signs of it yet.
Daniel began eating meat at the tender
age of four months—which was probably I
less than the age of the untender meat I
since Daniel dwells >n New York—993 East '
One hundred and sixty-seventh street.
After Dr. Gorton's twins had been in
terviewed and found to be the most resil- 1
iently "bouncing" youngsters imaginable,
Daniel consented to receive a reporter.
Has It “On” Gorton Twins.
It's a dangerous thing to meddle with I
rival theories about bringing up chill
dren. You are likely to get hit by Science I
and by their mothers at the same time
But it has to be confessed that young
Dudenhoeffer, the "meat eater," seemed
ro "have something on” the Gorton twins.
Os course. Dan's a year old and the
twins were born last May, but he weighs
45 pounds and they only about a dozen
pounds each.
All of them are the grandest speci
mens of baby, and the race of
meat against vegetables In the great gus
tatory meet, open to weanlings and year
lings. is sure to be watched with In
creasing popular interest during their de
velopment.
Let no parent take this article as any
serious guide for the rearing of her chil
dren. This reporter has seen heaps of
babies, but they were brought up, strange
ly enough, on milk.
Nevertheless, the Dudenhoeffers’ Daniel
deserves hls fame. He was found on
Riverside drive, escorting Er. Dudenhoef
fer on an afternoon jaunt. Mr. Duden- ;
hoeffer managed the go-cart in which hls
son did the escorting The beaming, truly 1
beautiful boy attracted the attention of ail
who passed. He rivaled Pierre Doti for *
loquacity in an interview.
□ rinks from the Spigot.
I se thirsty.” he said, as volubly as
the great Erenchman informed us yester
day that "Your city has grown.”
His father took him over to a drinking
fountain, and Daniel gave a new exhibi
tion of his manhood. He took hls drink
straight from the spigot, while hls head
was mostly under water—and liked it.
‘‘Oh, yes, we've been worried, mildly,
about Dr Gorton's theory,” said Mr
Dudenhoeffer. "We would not like to have !
the bov turn out a cannibal, but as a mat- ■
ter of fact he's the gentlest tempered kid I
that ever lived He cries about once a
month. He talks a. good deal at home. ,
and walks better than any child of his ,
age I ever saw."
The reason why the Dudenhoeffers be- |
gan feeding the baby meat was that he I
was very frail as an infant. They tried 1
meat juices and found he improved, they I
say Then, when he go' a tooth or so, i
they lei him masticate small pieces of'
meal and swallow only the juice. He is i
taking more and more all the time and i
getting stronger and stronger, they claim.
