The old National Democratic
rooster has opened one eye after a
long nap and is beginning to shake
the dust out of his wings I lo is
also consulting a throat specialist
that he may he able to crow in Ni -
vember.
Although he had committed
his crime a year before, a IwlJup
man was recognized by his victim ;
and arrested. The moral is that a '
man with that kind of a face has
no business to go into the holdup j
business.

The democracy chose a Moses
not a Jonah.
Sea Girt now becomes a large

It always confuses a noun' dawg
for the rabbit to double on his

The country demanded first-rate
goods and the convention at Bal
timore supplied the demand.
Meanwhile the grand old party
elephant would enjoy a vacation
from his diet of peanut politics.
When Tom Piatt made Roose
velt vice-president he certainly had
no conception or what he was

Whoever remarked, "least said,

In 1852 the Whigs did not real

History is about to repeat itself.
With the brilliant governor of
New Jersey as leader, the Demo
cratic party is assured of an over
whelming victory in November,
says the Spartansburg (S. C.)
Herald.
The call for the formation of the
Roosevelt party, evidently t be
termed the National Progressive
party, has been given out by J. M.
Dixon, of Montana, the campaign
manager of Colonel Roosevelt. It
calls upon those who will follow
the new flag to send representa
tives to Chicago on the fifth of Au
gust to organize the new move
ment to nominate a candidate for
President, this to be the Colonel
himself.
Henceforth the chips must
fly even over the fence into the
back yards of the "interests. '
There can be no cuddling up to
iir. Kvan or Mr. be mom or Mr.
Morgan. There must be no olive
branches to Colonel Harvey or
Colonel Waiterson or those other
colonels in the army of publicists
who have so ardously striven to
carry the party's proclamations.
Governor Wilson was nominated
not on the strength of the speech
es he made in the East but of those
he made in Texas and other wild
and woolly States where his ideas
fairly sizzled, says the New York
Herald.

one-sixth of the population of

The following is quoted as the
j opening portion of Judge U'est-
cott's speech in placing Woodrow
i Wilson before the Baltimore con
I vention:
I New Jersey, once bound, but by
the moral energy and intellectual
greatness of a single soul, now
free, comes to this great conven
tion, in the glory of her emancipa
tion, to participate in your deliber
ations, and in formulating your
judgments and assist in executing
your decrees. The New Jersey
delegation is not empowered to ex
ercise the attributes of proprietor
ship, but as commissioned to rep
resent the great cause of Democra
cy, and to orler you as its miliiant
and triumphant leader, a scholar,
nc-: a charlatan: a statesman, not a
doctrinaire; a profound lawyer, not
a splitter of legal hairs; a political
economist, not an egotistical theo
rist; a practical politician, who con
structs, modifies, restrains without
disturbance and destruction; a re
sistless debater and consummate
master of statement, not a mere
sophist; a humanitarian, not a de
tainer of character and lives; a man
whose mind is at once cosmopoli
tan and composite of American;
a gentleman of unprentious habits,
with the fear of God in his heart
and the love of mankind exhibited
in every act of his life; above all a
public servant who has been tried
to the uttermost and never found
wanting peerless, matchless, un
conquerable, Democrat, Wood
row Wilson.

the utmost confidence in Doan's

used in my family with the best of
