THE NEWS MENAGERIE. MAN HAS A SOUL. The King of Spain has talked for jving picture*, his voice recorded by the Fox movietone. Millions will be interested in a real king, who casually says: “I am very glad to say Christopher Colura- teas aided in coming to this coun try by my ancestors.” WOMEN ARE OUTWARDLY SUPPORTING DEM. NOMINEE Col. Erwin Sibley, Head of 10th Dia to Tho Wotner i Another Lettei of The DUtri earlier than to be expected many democratic women, who at the begnining of this campaign were silent, now are taking positive and outspoken stands in support of our party. They have been impressed by the unreasonable and impossible po sition to which the few dissatisfied ones would lead them into and they have not only refused to joi group but are boldly assisting support of our Democratic Purty. These democrats, like myself, know that they cannot afford to submit to n fanaticism that would sacrifice our most priceless and dearest, and blood- bought, heritage. fifty years our fathers and grand fathers and mothers and grandmoth ers have patiently and sacrificinlly He is a practical King, this Al-1 through our Democratic Party work- fonso, with hiu mind on his subjects’ | Ct j f or nn adjustment of the unbe- •elfare. He urges American tour- arable social und economic condition its to come to Spain, telling them that was thrust upon them following they will find good roads, and, “You | the War between the States. About ALL ALONE AT SEA Kiel, Germany, Sept 24.—(Auto caster)—The Pilgrim, a small Amer ican schooner, with Captain Drake the sole occupant, arrived here from Seattle, Wash. The lone voyager will start back to the United States by way of Dutch, Rev. J. R. King, pastor of the French and SpanisV ports. Daffy-Down-Dilly has come up to town, In a yellow petticoat and a green gown. Why has she come? She is buying a sack Of Omega flour for to take back! Sold by most all the grocers in and around Milledgeville. Many Prominent Men Through out Nation Break Life-Long Party Ties. Hundreds of life-long Republicans, many of them of national prominence, ore swelling each day the vast army of voters who believe that it Is the duty of every thinking American to support Governor Smith. Among the most recent of leading Republicans who have publicly pudlated the Republican candidate Rudolph Sprockets, widely known banker and business man of San Francisco, owner of huge sugar plan tations la Hawaii, and formerly a close friend and adviser of President Roosevelt. Another influential Republic declare for Smith is Spencer Penrose of Colorado, mining engineer and brother of the late Senator Boise Pen rose, Republican leader in Pennsyl- Promlnent Financial Figures One Republican of considerable con sequence who has just declared for Governor Smith is W. B. Hibbs of Virginia, president of W. B. Illbbs and Co., bankers, of Washington, D. C. Two prominent New Jersey Repub licans, John J. Stamlcr, president of the Broad and Market National Bank and Trust Co., of Newark, und Czal H. McCarter, president of the Fidelity Union Trust Co., of Newark, an nounced last week that they will sup port Governor Smith. Another Republican banker to Join the campaign to elect tho Democratic candidate Is De Loncey Kountz, Chair man of the Board of Devoe and Raynolds Co., of New York. Western Farm Leaders Frank W. Murphy, chairman of the Legislative Committee of the Corn Bolt Federation of Farm Organiza tions, and a member of the Minnesota delegation to the Republican Conven tion, has renounced allegiance to his party and repudiated Hoover as “an enemy of the farmer.” Other farm leaders to bolt the Re publican party were Governor Adam McMullen, Republican Executive of Nebraska, and L. F. Shultleworth, of Indianapolis, former head cf tho pur chasing committee of the Indiana Fed eration of Farm Bureaus. “YOUTH ENDANGERED” PHILADELPHIA.—James F. Lucas, vice president of the Lucas Paint und Brush Company of Philadelphia, a well-known Republican fer fifty years, has announced that he Is "opposed hypocrisy” and, accordingly, opposed to the election of Herbert Hoover. He added: •*I shall vote for Governor Smith be cause I believe his election would end conditions which are endangering the future of tho younger generation." DANIELS REBUKES STRATON RALEIGH, N. C.—Rebuking Dr. John Roach Straton for expressing the belief that “ay old friend." Josephus Daniels, would bolt the Democratic party, the former Sec retary of the Navy has again empba tically declared. In a letter to the New York pastor, that he will support Gov ernor Smith. Mr. Daniels wrote: "I believe I can serve the causi prohibition and temperance betteT by remaining In my party than by sup porting Mr. Hoover, who sat in the Cabinet with Harding with all the cor ruptioa and with Coolidgo with all the favoritism-the two administrations, which, by flagrant failure to enforce the law or to give it legal and moral support, have done more to harm pro hSbitlon than its open foes." may drive as fast i self, have driven 1 ty-four years.’’ Most important is the fact that talking pictures will enable everybody to see, study and know the most im portant people on earth. That really is progress. The electron, mysterious, theoreti cal, “smallest division of matter,” is no imaginary “dot in space.” It pos sesses definite size, revolving inside the atom, as our earth revolves with in the solar system. We go around our sun once in three hundred and sixty-five days. The electron goes around ITS sun, the nucleus at the centre of the atom, billions of times every second. You cannot imagine that, or be lieve it, and you need not, but science proves it to be a fact. Recent important discoveries are due to an Englishman, Professor Thomson, and an American, Dr. Davisson, of Columbia University, and the big telephone company labor atories. The electron may not interest mod erns, but it interests science and will interest future ages more than this Presidential election will, a good deal A man looking through the l is like a small boy in a menagerie So much to see you have to run from cage to cage, from the laughing hy ena to the snorting hippopotamus, and from the bar-shaking orang ou- tang to the placid elephant. Politics may be called the laugh ing hyena of the human menagerie and the crime wave is the orang out- ang. In his first address as president of the British Association for the Ad vancement of Science, Sir Wiliam Bragg insists that man has a soul. That is like saying there is steam in i engine when it moves, physical e in u man running and talking. Science cannot PROVE the exi ice of a soul, but proof isn’t neecs- No man can prove he isn’t dream ing as he talks to you, and many a man dreaming has been certain he was awake. Three thnigs in the universe, mat ter. force, spirit. Matter and force may be one. At least they take dif ferent forms. Force cannot act with out matter. And only spirit CON- CIOUSNESS can supply force to mat ter and make things better. The earth was a wilderness, until human beings, each with his spaik of consciousness, came to change it. No “fortuitous concourse of atoms” could produce the left hind leg of a field mouse, much less the brain of an Aristotle. It is man’s work that counts, not his ashes. When kings came back after the French Revolution they scattered Voltaire’* ashes to the four winds. And they picked the right man, for it was he that put an end to French king*-. They are gone. He remains. They never succeeded in scattering him while he lived. He worried them- like. I my- . the walls adorning the homes of these fast for twen- <r 0 od democrats today are portrait* of these noble men and wopien of the past whose generous Christian char acters are objects of respect, affec tion and reverence of their children. Only a few of these living emblems of that great past are still with Hear the words of a W .C. T. U. democrat of almot* one hundred years of age: “I deplore the attitude of some of ir pulpiteers and of Southern Methodist women, who have succeed ed in getting on the Hoover electoral ticket, Avith violent accusation ngainst the Tammanynites who were brave defenders of the South and where I know they are now mistaken. ioneer in W. C. T. U. s n pioneer in temperanoe work in this state. I joined at a W. T. U. convention held in Macon early in 1886, forty-two years ago. . . If I am not the oldest of the militant temperance women of the early day*, ar the oldest in point of age. So far as possible I held the banner high for nearly half a century. I am over 93 years old. When I enlisted in the organization it was non-political. I am grieved to know that some Georgia women are now drugging a clean, white, and much honored organization into the mire and filth of dirty politics, in a mud slinging campaign. I am acquainted with Mr. Work, Mr. Hoover’s political manager, am grateful to know that he denounc ed the slanderous attacks on Gover nor Al Smith’s character and duct made by Preacher Straton in New York and Atlanta at unworthy of the notice of either party, . . Theso are words of our own Mrs. Rebcccu Latimer Felton, who has the distinction also of being the only woman in the world who has ever been a Senator. These intelligent democratic wo- en \ Jters and supporters appreciate that the efforts to arrive at a friend ly and economic relationship in our Southland now is about to be realiz ed and they regret that these few dissatisfied ones are willing to sacri fice everything for their own par ticular and personal views. Illustra tive of the extremity that this fana ticism forces them to, an effort is being made to upset our social order and some arc proclaiming publicly a willingness to “swallow whole” a prominent republican member of the negro race,—an attitude not only insulting tc( the tradition of our Southland and repulsive to\ every white democrat, but also regrettable by the best members of the colored race. Everybody knows that no good can come out of such talk, but it is fraught with evil. For this rca- on also I am constantly being inform, ed of these intelligent democratic women boldly coming out in support of our Democratic Party and are lending their efforts to prevent the horrible result that such fanaticism and seditious uttitude n »st necessari ly lead to. And w e are to be congratulated upon having the assurance of the support of these many nohie-hearted democratic women and their determi nation to vote our democratic ticket on November the 6th. They see the subterfuge of joining this disaffect ed group and they know that a vote for he Republican Hoover, (no mat ter what may be the prejudice and no matter what may be the name under which they call them-elves) is a vote for the Republican Party. I am thanking you for your help in supportnig our Democratic Party. Sincerely, ERWIN SIBLEY, Chairman Tenth District.
