Bryan Men Have No Time For Par
ker and His Wall Street Clique.
PREFER TO SUPPORT WATSON
Many Silver Democrats In Pennsylva
nia Are Going to Vote For the So
cialists' Candidate.
I Special Correspondence.]
Harrisburg, Oct. 4.
Prom all over Pennsylvania come re
ports that thousands of Democrats who
followed Bryan loyally in his two cam
paigns for the presidency will not. vote
for Parker at the election on the Bth ot
next month.
They have no confidence in Parker.
They say ho lacks sincerity and that he
has repudiated the principles which he
voted for at the last two presidential
elections. They charge him with hav
ing surrendered to the Wall street
clique of financial conspirators who
have for more than a year been schem
ing to defeat Roosevelt for the presi
dency.
Many of the real, genuine, Simon
pure Democrats who believe in the Chi
cago and the Kansas City platforms
for which they fought so strenuously in
two great presidential contests, pro
pose to vote for "Tom" Watson, the 1
candidate of the Socialistic party, for
president, who stands for the true doc
trines of Bryanism.
Not a few of them, however, who j
want to see Parker "the worst licked
candidate for president that ever ran '
Intend to vote directly for Roosevelt.
The Democrats who are opposed to
Parker have a compact organization in j
many states.
All through the south, where many
Democrats hoirvtly believe in Bryan,
they have formed clubs to work and i
vote for Watson. Over in New Jersey, !
wherp Watson is scheduled to make a
number of speeches this week, there is !
a strong following of old-time Demo- J
crats who have joined the Watson
forces for this campaign.
In counties like Luzerne, Schuylkill,
Lackawanna. York, Adams, Mifflin and
others, where there are many Demo
crats who refuse to accept the Parker
policy of switching from one platform
to another on the slightest provoca
tion, there is a pronounced sentiment
in favor of Watson.
Many of these Democrats will vote
the full Socialist ticket. An effort is
being made to get Watson to visit some
of the Democratic strongholds in this
state, and it may be successful. The
candidate of the Socialists for vice pres
ident spent several days last week in
York. Schuylkill and other counties in
Pennsylvania, and he is booked to make
more speeches this week in this state.
sliver Democrats style the Per
kerites the "Gold-lined Democracy."
They say such Democrats are ready
to change their coats or their colors at
any time to win, and that no man with
any self-respect could follow such lead
ership.
Parker's letter of acceptance was
the last straw that broke the tie that
bound many silver Democrats to his
candidacy.
Parker never before expressed his
"unqualified belief" in the gold stand
ard though he used the expression
"again," intimating that he was only
repeating a formerly avowed opinion.
Until now Mr. Parker has contented
himself with saying in his Sheehan
telegram: "I regard the gold standard
as established." In his speech of ac
ceptance he merely referred to that
telegram "regarding" the gold stand
ard as established as covering liis
Views on the subject.
That he has finally plucked up cour
age to say that he actually believes
in the gold standard is. perhaps, due
to the fact that he appreciates now.
as every other person of sound Judg
ment appreciates, that the bunco words
of his telegram failed to deceive a
single silver voter in the country,
and that he has lost beyond the possi
bility of reclaim every state in the
west that either Bryan or McKinley
carried in IS9'I or 1900.
In a last desperate effort to gain the
support of the Democracy that falters
and wavers even in the east, he ap
pears to he willing now to commit
himself unequivocally on the subject
of the gold standard. Rut the voters
of the east, not only the Republicans
who voted for McKinley and sound
money, but the Gold Democrats, who
In two national campaigns refused to
barter the nation's honor for financial
heresies, will ask Mr. Parker why. if
he actually believes In the gold stand
ard, why, if this is an "unqualified be
lief," he twice went to the polls—in
189G and 1900 —and voted for the free
eilver programme of William J. Bry
an? If In 1890 and 1900 Mr. Parker
could deliberately vote and act against
his convictions, if he has any, could
he act now and in the future it' he were
elected president of the United States?
Thus Parker has failed to keep the
silver Democrats in line, and he has
disgusted the sound money Democrats
ind lost the respect of Republicans and
good citizens generally.
His case Is a hopeless one.
A close observer of political condi
tions In this state said a few days ago
"I find a strong disposition on the part
of many of the more ardent Bryan fol
lowers either to support Watson or to
vote directly for Roosevelt. Every
where the most absolute confidence is
felt in Roosevelt's election, and that he
will receive also the electoral vote of
New York.
"I find the Democrats apathetic and
many of them openly express the be
lief that the Democratic ticket has no
chance. Unless something is done to
arouse them. I look for a large stay-at
home Democratic vote."

One of the most remarkable of fishes
Is the mudfish, which Inhabits certain
of the rivers of western Africa and, as
its name Implies, lurks at the bottom
of these rivers. In that region the riv
ers are liable to periodical droughts.
When such a drought is imminent, the
flsh retires to deep water and exca
vates a pit. In which it lies, covering
Itself over with a thick layer of mud.
It can then bear with impunity the
complete drying up of the river. But
the most interesting fact about the
creature Is that during the time of its
voluntary imprisonment it breathes air
directly through an .. crture left in
the cocoon by means of lnm inst like

Republicans Rally Throughout the
State About Party's Standard.
MANY MEETINGS BEING HELD
Chairman Penrose Gratified Over the
Settlement of All the Republican
Deadlocks.
[Special Correspondence.]
Philadelphia, Oct. 4.
The lires of Republican enthusiasm
blazed brigrttly in every corner of the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania dur
ing the last week when the presiden
tial campaign can be said to have been
fairly opened. Great popular demon
strations were held in Pittsburg and
Philadelphia, and in many of the prin
cipal towns of the state, In the vil
lages and hamlets on the hills and in
the vales there were rousing rallies
oi the stalwart voters who have un
furled the Republican banners, and
will keep them bravely flying for the
balance of the campaign.
Chairman Penrose, of the Republi
can state committee, is more confident
than ever that his prediction that
Pennsylvania will give a record break
ing majority for Roosevelt will be ful
fill. I.
The last day for the filing of cer
tificates of nomination has passed, and
Secretary Wesley R. Andrews, of the
stat<- committee, who took personal
char.;.> of this part of the work, has
been complimented upon the fact that
every nomination was recorded in
time.
It is a matter of gratification that
every deadlock over a Republican
nomination was broken in time to
have the nomination certificates filed
within the prescribed limit. Possibly
the most difficult contest to settle was
that in the 33d senatorial district,
where Senator Stewart, of Franklin,
and Editor A. S. Welch, of the Mount
Union (Huntingdon county) Times,
were the rival candidates. After over
100 ballots Mr. Welch agreed to with
draw and save the district to the Re
publican party. He did not do so,
however, until he had a compact en
tered into by which Huntingdon coun
ty is to have the next two terms in
the state senate from this district.
Chairman Penrose, on the settlement
of this contest, gave out a public state
ment in which he commended the
self-sacrificing action of Mr. Welch,
and declared that the Republican or
ganization was deeply indebted to him
for his course which made it possible
to insure the election of a Republican
to the senate from this district.
With all of the nominations out of
the road. Chairman Penrose and Sec
retary Andrews have been giving more
time to the organization of mass meet
ings throughout the state. They have
planned an interesting series of dem
onstrations which will keep the spell
binders of the Republican party busy
from now until election day. They are
making a special effort to get the first
voters organized.
The Democrats have been sending
special campaign literature to the Dun
kards and the Quakers of Pennsylva
nia. in an effort to line them up aginst
Roosevelt. They have not had any
success in that direction.
Congressman Butler, of the Dela
ware-Chester district, who has a large
number of Quakers among his con
stituents. called on President Roose
velt a few days ago ami informed him
that he could count absolutely upon
the support of the Quakers who are
Republicans, and most of them vote
that way.
"There is no truth in the claims of
the Democrats, so far as the Quakers
are concerned," he stated. "My ances
tors for 200 years before me were Qua
kers. and I believe I know the senti
ments of these good people about as
well as anybody. They are for Roose
velt in Pennsylvania, and I am told
that they are giving their support to
him elsewhere."
Congressman Cassel, from the Lan
caster district, declares that the Dunk
ards are all for Roosevelt.
Senator Philander Knox, who made
his initial speech of the campaign at
the great Philadelphia demonstration,
under the auspices of the Manufactu
rers' Club, made a splendid impres
sion. His address will be one of the
most sought-for documents of the Re
publican campaign. The national com
mittee is already getting hundreds of
thousands of copies printed, as it is
considered one of the most effective
presentations of the record of the
Roosevelt administration yet given.
He refuted many of the Democratic
charges against the administration
and showed that the president has
been a patriotic and courageous cham
pion of the people against the en
croachment of corporate and monopo
list'*; power.
Senator Knox, among other things,
said:
"The record of President Roosevelt's
three year's stewardship is such that
his party has unanimously nominated
him as worthy to be continued in his
high place.
"The Republican party Is not on the
defensive, and that great canon of
evidence and good sense which places
the burden of proof upon him who ac
cuses applies as well to contentions
between parties as to those between
individuals.
"The Republican position upon the
tariff is plain and easily understood.
It is all in a sentence. We stand un
flinchingly to the policy of protection,
'which guards and develops our indus
tries.' When our people reach the con
clusion that they do not want their in
dustries guarded any longer or pro
tected any further, they will pass the
power over to those who are willing
to execute such a policy."

11l LED P.Y THE MOON
ODD BELIEFS BY DUTCH FARMERS
OF NORTH CAROLINA.
They Kill IIIIKN, Plant nitil Iluilil Ar

II»K to » l)o« iiml What One
MUM) DO to Mnkr 11 liuoil Tree L)«»K.
The Dutch farmers of Rowan county
nro among North Carolina's most pros
perous anil most interesting people.
They live well, save money anil im
prove in every wa.\. Thrift is a vir
tue with them. They arc great believ
ers in signs and old sayings. Tliey do
things by the moon.
Before building a worm fence the
Dutch always watch the moon, says
the Charlotte (X. C.) Observer. It must
be right or the fence will sink into
the ground. The bottom rail must be
put down when the little moon is turn
ed up, so that it will not sink into the
ground. To prove that this Is the right
sort of doctrine let a person make an
experiment with two bricks. Put
down one while the little moon is up
and the other while it is down, and it
will be noticed that the one laid when
the moon was down will go into the
ground and that the other will remain
as left.
If one would cover his house well he
must make the boards when the little
moon Is turned down. That is easy.
The boards will keep their shape if
rived then. But, on the other hand.
If made while the little moon Is turn
ed up the boards will cup up at the
ends when exposed to the weather. I
have seen many a board turn up at
the end, but never knew what did it
till now.
The moon must be right when a
Dutchman kills his bogs. If the hogs
are killed when the little moon Is on
the decrease the meat will shrink, but
If killed when the little moon Is on
the increase it will swell.
To have good turnips one must plant
on Israel's day—that is, in August. If
corn is planted when the little moon
points up the ears will grow too near
the top. The ear gets more nourish
ment near the ground.
Xo work Is done on Ascension day.
It is a day of rest and pleasure. If the
first visitor to a home that day is a
man all the eggs that are setting will
hatch roosters; if a woman, pullets
will prevail. Therefore a man is an un
welcome guest early in the morning on
Ascension day.
It is not right to carry out the ashes
between Christmas and Xew Year's
day. That brings bad luck.
If a farmer puts out manure or fer
tilizer when the little moon points up
it will stay, but if the little moon
points down It will leach out.
There are a thousand and one of
these signs and sayings if they could
be collected. Many of them are met in
other than Dutch communities.
Lived there a country boy in Meck
lenburg who did not. know how to
treat bis old* hound for various short
comings? If when you get a new dog
he will not stay with you cut the hair
tip off his tail and bury it under the
front steps, and then he will abide
with you forever. Xobody can take
hiui from you. If you would have the
dog love you better than he could any
body else wear a bit of meat in the
heel of your shoe a day and then give
it to the dog to eat. It is strange doc
trine, but true, for I have tried it.
Some folks find it better to measure a
dog with a stick and bury it under the
steps than to nick the tail. Either way
w ill do.
It so happens now and then that a
fine dog refuses to bark at the tree.
That sort of hunting is unsatisfactory,
for most of the hunter's time is wasted
in huutlnji for the silent d<>ir. That de
fect, however, is easily got rid of. The
hunter goes to the woods and listens
for the squeaking noise that is made
by the rubbing together of two trees,
gathers the bark from the point of
friction, makes a soup of it and gives
it to the dog. If anything will help
him after he Is grown that will. But

brains the teeth will come through the

i good fortune once to see the trick tried.
One daj I was traveling In the lower
part <>f Mecklenburg county when I
saw two small boys running, carrying
something. The youngsters were red
in the face and hot I could see that
they were bent on purpose. The larger
of the two, a red topped boy, was in
the lead. He held in his hand sonie-
I thing that he seemed to be Jealous of
1 and was trying to protect.
"What have you there, boy?" I shout
ed.
"Rabbit brains hot rabbit brains,"
was the quick reply.
"What are you going to do with
them?"
"We's going to rub sister's gums, so
she kin cut tectli."
I followed the boys and watched the
operation. It was all right, and I have
learned since that teething was made
easier by the act. The boys had chased
that rabbit and killed him far afield.

avoided had the child been supplied

I.ord Ellenborough, the great English
Judge, was once about togo on circuit
when Lady Ellenborough said that she
should like to accompany him. He re
plied that he had no objection, provided
she did not incumber the carriage with
bandboxes, which were his utter ab
horrence. During the tlrst day's Jour
ney I.ord Ellenborough, happening to
stretch his leu*, put his foot through
something below the seat. lie discov
ered that it was a bandbox. I'p went
the window and out went the band
box. The coachman stopped, and the
footman, thinking that the bandbox
had tumbled out of the window by
some extraordinary chance, was going
j to pick it tip when I.ord Ellenborough
furiously called out, "Drive on!" The
bandbox accordingly was left by the
ditch side. Having reached the coun
try town where he was to officiate as
Judge, I.ord Ellenborough proceeded to
| array himself for his appearance in the
courthouse. "Now," said he, "Where's
my wig—when* is my wig?" "My
lord." replied the attendant, "it was

to stare at him. "Suddenly a bright
thought flashed through my mind,"
says linker "Without taking my eye
off the animal before me, I put a double

shirt. I took all the money from my

were hardly home before the bull

ADMIRAL BYNG. ,
A Brnve Suitor Who T'niil (tie I'enal
t> of Other >lei»*H lolly.
Two vea-»s after \ oil ire lei I I'russia j
George Keith came to visit him in Swit- I
zerland to plead the cause of ail Eng- I
lisli friend, Byng. The story of By rig !
is familiar to all His countrymen. The
French had beaten the Lnglish on the j
sea, and, mad with disappointed rage,
the blundering ministry ol' England
turned on their luckless instrument,
Byng. Voltaire was the lifelong friend
of Richelieu, the conqueror. But he j
was, too, the man of whom it was j
said that "for twenty years the redress
of Judicial wrong" hung entirely on his j
pen. On Dec. 20, 1 he wrote to
Richelieu telling Byng's story, and that
vainglorious person replied generously
enough in an open letter, wherein he
stated that had Byng continued the
light the English licet must have been
totally destroyed and that the admiral's
misfortune cauie not from cowardice or
inefficiency, but from the hand of God
and the valor of the French.
Voltaire wrote to Byng, sending Rich
elieu's letter, but lie could not save the !
victim. Byng paid the penalty of other
men's folly. To Voltaire lie left a
grateful message and a copy of his de
fense, and in "Candide," with that ban
tering malice which is his alone, Vol
taire sharply satirizes the scene of the
vdmiral's execution.
"And why should this admiral he put
to death?"
"Because he has not killed enough
people. He fought with a French ad
miral and is not considered to have
been sufficiently near to him."
"But," said Candide, "the French ad
miral was Just as far away from the
English."
"That is certainly true," was the an
swer. "But in this country it is salu
tary to put an admiral to death now
and tli_-n pour eneourager les autres."

Discontent With Work.
That there is much discontent with
work among the so called middle ]
classes in America is due in large part
to the pampering of children, to the
supplying of their natural and artificial
wants and to the sentimental idea that i
"their day of toil will come soon
enough." In general, work is not a
curse, but a blessing a positive means 1
of grace. One can hardly begin too i
early to impress upon children lessons ;
of self help by tasks appropriate to
their age and forces and to beget in
them scorn of idleness and of depend- j
ence on others. To do this is to make I

Do It Now.
The following sentiment has been !
variously attributed to Stephen Orel- 1
let, Sir Rowland Hill, Edward Courte
nay and the Earl of Devon, and
Is said to have been inscribed upon the
tombstone of the latter: "I expect to
pass through this world but once. If,
therefore, there be any kindness I can
show or any good thing I can do to any j
fellow being, let me do it now. Let me
not defer it nor neglect it, for 1 shall
uot pass this way again."
Wide 11.-niKc of the Moose.
The range of the moose in North
America is of enormous extent, from j
Nova Scotia in the extreme east, i
throughout Canada and certain of the I
northern United States to the limits of
tree growth in the west and north of |
Alaska. Throughout this vast extent
of territory but two species are recog
nized—the common moose, Aloes ameri
canus, and the Alaskan moose, Alces
gigas, of the Kenal peninsula—but it is
probable that further exploration will
bring to light another species near the
head waters of the Laird river and the
Sassiar mountains of British Columbia
and still another farther north in the
neighborhood of the Colville river.—
