Labor and Business Will Both Be Safisfied With Him. | “The sentiment for Underwood through the north, and especially in New York, amonnts practically to a enll” said W, L. Percy, secretary of the Dobbs & Wey company, who zot back home yesterday after a three weeks' trip through Cineinnati, Colum bus, Bu@alo, New York eity and other points. “The Republicans don't want any- body, to tell the truth. Roosevelt is ton much of a demagogue, Taft has heen unwise, La Follette is so much of a progressive that he is practically a Socialist, and Cummins I8 not in the running. Of the Demoeratic candidates Underwond is the only man who meets their demands for a constructive statesman, one who knows the practi- cal side of government. North Strong For Underwood. “Nine out of every ten Republicans think Underswood would make a good president, and of those nine the ma Jority are ready to vote for him, Of course there are not a few who always vote the straight Republican ticket.

Mr. Perey’s statements are not drawn "merely from a scratching of the polit- feal surface In the cities and states through which he passed. e talked with laboring men and, by the way, it was from them that he heard the first favorable mention of Underwood; he talked with business men who control thousands of dollars, and it might be ,added that he took lunch with an ac- tive candidate for the presidency, not | Mr. Underwood, which, however, did {not blind him to the fitness of the | southern man, Underwood Much Talked About, “When I left Atlanta I knew little of Oscar Underwood, I thought when he | was mentioned that he was all right s & congressman, but beyond that 1 never | went, *'The first thing that set me thinking ot Lim and his chances for the presi dency was a conversation which 1 but- ted into at Buffalo.

Mr. Underwood, as is well known, was for a long time averse to the idea of being taken up for discus- | slon as a presidential possibility, and even after his indorsement by the Ala- i bama Democracy he deprecated the ef- forts of his friends to give wider prom- | fnence to his eligibility. That he now | eonsents to stand for the honor im-| plies that developments have dispelled | the doubts that first assailed him. The cail upon Mr, Underwood issues from influentiai quarters in all sec- tions, a signal fact that permits it to! be recorded that for the first time in fifty yvears the availability of a south- ern man prompts no mental reserva- tion on the score of section. His status | among the group of favorite sons is as assured as that of Champ Clark and: Woodrow Wilson, hoth southern born, but ne less esteemed for all th t.

We read in part: “T wish the people of the country to know that we expect to go in on the strength of our candidate, his high character, his well tried lead- ership, his perfect sanity and poise and his fidelity both to Ms friend- | ships and also to the great and time honored principles of the Democratic party. If we are un- able to win save through anony. | mous and unsigned attacks on oth. er candidates then we do not ex- pect or even care to win. Indeed, under such cirenmstances we would not deserve to win. In all we do it will never be forgotten that there s a certain comity due between candidates of the same party and that after the nomination we must | be in position to fight a common | political enemy.” N.
