t. A. appeals to - WWW 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.

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.” $25,000 BAN KsTl AN NED IN TWO GEORGIA TOWNS I he secretary of state has issued a barter to the Bank of Jakin, to be apitalized at $25,000.

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.

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.
