TO BE SHORT AND SHARP Only About One Month of Quick Firing Speechmaking to Be Undertaken. TOUCHED OFF THIS MONTH. ORATORY WILL SIZZLE AND SHOOT INTO THE AIR AND BURNED OUT TUBES WILL FALL TO EARTH NOV. 3. Washington, Sept. 12. A short, sharp and decisive campaign. That's the word coming from headquarters of both the great parties. Until October there will not be much more than preliminaries. Then a month of strenuous endeavor and the balloting on November 3. For this the country 1s grateful, but It probably Is not the country's gratitude the managers have in mind in bottling up the campaign firework3 until later on. Neither Chairman Hitchcock nor Chairman Mack is with out perplexing problems that ought to be straightened out before the sprockets are turned loose. Some ugly state squabbles are not yielding to treatment as readily as could be wished. Where republican disaffection is most pronounced, the democrats are holding back in order to secure whatever advantage may be had of the situation. And where democrats are fighting republicans are playing the waiting same. Moreover, this is a year when party allegiance sets lightly on the average voter. The number is larger than ever before of men who are not bothering their heads over party names. There are thousands of men to whom the name "democrat" or "republican" doesn't mean what it meant four years ago and still less than It meant eight or twelve or sixteen years ago. This weaning away from party ties generally Is spoken of as an Increase In the independent vote. It doesn't mean that these men have become voters without a party, but it does mean that their parties have got to appeal to their reasons and not merely to their loyalty to a party name. So, with sore spots that do not heal and a greatly augmented independent vote, the party managers have got to lay their plans most carefully. Whoop, whoop, hurrah! from July till November will not suffice. The whooping will come In October, after still hunting has accomplished all it can. Then, as beaters are sent in to scare up game too wary to be got by craft, so the flood of campaign orators will be sent out to stir up party feeling. The real educational work already will have been planned and set under way by the elaborately organized literary bureaus, and while it wyi not be expected the campaign orators will accomplish much in the way of educating the voters, their appeals to stand by the grand old party of Jefferson and the grand old party of Lincoln will be expected to line up tnose voters who allow others to do their thinking for them. Prom this characterization of campaign oratory must be excepted the speeches of the candidates themselves and those It is expected President Roosevelt will make. Bryan already has taken the stump and Taft has made a few speeches and will begin stumping In earnest in October. The voters are going to listen to and read their words and ponder them. Just as they will listen to and ponder the words of Mr. Roosevelt when he takes the stump in behalf of his friend and protege. Mr. Bryan has a secure place as a popular campaign orator. No American has ever been able to attract larger audiences and none ever had a more enthusiastic personal following, not exception such popular idols as Douglas, Clay and Blaine. Judge Taft Is yet to be tried In the large as a platform speaker, but his few appearances since becoming a presidential candidate have been remarkably successful. It is unnecssary, of course, to say anything of President Roosevelt's popularity as a public speaker During the past seven years he has spoken in about every state of the union of about every imaginable sub

Ton once could eat anything you wanted, and your stomach would digest it Rut now there's some things which your Btomach won't digest. Your stomach absolutely refuses to accommodate you when you eat certain food bo you have been forced by your stomach to eat food which you detested, and pass up thostt delicacies that you would hare really enjoyed. There is a way now to eat any thing you like, If you will let Kodol digest it Kodol will do this. too. It won't talk back or command, but will go right ahead with Its work and digest all the food you eat. Kodol will let you eat anything you like and all you want, and you won't suffer with that dull feeling, that fullness, and wish you hadn't eaten so much. . , , You will not hare that heart-burn, which Is so annoying at times, if you will let Kodol digest your food awhile: You don't hare to use Kodol long only for a little while just long enough for your stomach to rest a little.

ject and has not failed to attract and hold large crowds. Bottling up the oratory for a short month of effervescing, therefore, will make it all the more effervesant. There will be a lot of fun while it lasts, and both the campaign managers and the country are to be congratulated upon the program for a "short, sharp and decisive campaign."

After all, the "barometical" vote in Vermont has not served to convinced anybody previously unconvinced as to how the election is going in November. The deomciatic managers stubbornly refuse to throw up the sponge merely because the September plurality in Vermont for the republican ticket was up to or slightly above the normal. They contend that an in crease in population and that Vermont j never was wort'a shucks as a baro-1 meter, anyhow. The republicans are glad the plurality didn't fall off, but first dash out of the box Candidate Taft warns republicans that they must not be over-confident merely because Vermont has been a little generous n the matter of republican votes. One might infer, in fact, that Judge Taft would have been better pleased if the plurality had been cut just a little, enough to give republicans a scare and make them get out and hustle. Once every four years it is the same old story. The September election in Vermont and Maine are eagerly looked forward to as straws that will indicate the drift of the political wind; and when it is all over their adverse verdicts are never accepted by those adversely affected. They are like straw votes on railroad trains, interesting the curious for the moment but without any very vital significance. LODGE III CONCLAVE Sovereign Grand Lodge 1. 0. 0. F.

MILD INTEREST ONLY IS SHOW State Department Does Not , Appear to Be Worried Over Morocco Situation. SOUTH AMERICA ALIVE. GENUINE CONCERN FELT AT PROSPECT OF WAR BETWEEN BRAZIL AND ARGENTINA BY DIPLOMATIC CORPS. Washington, Sept. 12. The American State Department is only mildly interested in the row over Morocco, which is causing apoplexy in the chancelleries of Europe. The United States was signatory to the Algeciras convention, it is true, but it accompanied its signature with the stipulation that it assumed no obligation for the enforcement of the provisions of that act, thus living up to and demonstrating the wisdom of the traditional American policy of avoiding entangling alliances. It is entirely willing to recognize the government of Mulai Hand, but will wait for the other signatory powers to say when such recognition is proper. It is entirely neutral, therefore, between Germany, which urges immediate recognition, and France, which insists recognition shall be withheld until Mulai Hafid promises to be good. There is no such complacent serenity, however, regarding affairs in South America. Genuine concern is felt at the prospect of war between Brazil and Argentina, and there will be no war if the influence and good offices of this government can prevent it. A war between Brazil and Argentina, though they are the two most formidable republics south of Mexico, might not be so serious a thing were it not for the danger that all Latin America would became a battle ground. Brazil aspires to occupy the same position with respect to Latin-America that promulgation of the Monroe doctrine and its final acceptace by Europe gave the United States with reference to all the Americas. In other words, Brazil aspires to put forth a Monroe doctrine of her own which would be a "keep off the grass" sign to the United States as well as to Europe and the rest of the world. Brazil's aspirations might very well be in line with the aspirations of the rest of Latin-America were it not for the fact that Brazil's Latins are Portnguest while the Latins of the rest of Latin-America are Spaniards. The Spaniards regard themselves as quite superior to the Portuguese. Clarence Miss Sharptm has brains enough for two, by Jove! Florence Then why don't you marry her. Claruct.

Among those present is Representative Tulio Larrinaga, Resident Commissioner from Porto Rico in the United States. Larrinaga will leave here promptly upon the conclusion of the Congress and proceed to Albuquerque, New Mexico, where he will represent his country at the National Irrigation Congress which opens the latter part of this month. Another American delegate to the Congress is Rep. Richard Bartholdt of St. Louis. Preceding his departure from America, to take part in the proceedings here, he had a conference in Washington with the officials of the State Department having charge of arbitration matters, in regard to the American propositions to be submitted to the Congress, and he is expected to omPne here America's attitude on the subject.
