But the Repub- lican party always has had and at present enjoys a marked advantage * in the accumulation of funds.

New England On Board Davis Train En Route | to New York, Oct. 9.—His campaign | drive in upper and western New York ended, John W. Davis, demo- cratic candidate for president, gwung cast today, headed for New York city to prepare for a two week tour of the middle west, Mr, Davis boarded the train im- mediately after his gpeech in Buf- ! falo last night was concluded. Ha tald friends who escorted him from the auditorium to the railway sta- tion, that while the New York trip had been strenuous, he felt more than compensated. On arrival in New York city, the candidate arranged to go direct to his home in Locust Valley to register | so he could vote in November for the state and national democratic tickets. His newly acquired status in New York will allow him to vote in this state for the first time on November They Go a Lot by Appearances Fredericks:—"What a foolish motto—'The King can do no wrong.’ So out of date!” Stevens:—"Oh, I don't know. Our modern journeymen believe that & queen can do no wrong." | | On Good Nature Speaking at the dinner given to Gen. John J. Pershing, retired, by the Government club at the Hotel Astor, New York, Charles M. Schwab, steel magnate, told those present that anybody with anything to sell usually comes to him first. “Only the other day,” said Mr. Schwab, “a man came and asked me to buy his cow.” “What kind of a cow is it? Is she good enough to mingle with my best select cows on my farm?"” queried Mr. Schwab. £ “I don't know,” replied the pros- pective seller. “Well, has she a pedigres?” in- quired the steel man, seeking degnite information. “I can't even tell you that," swered the man with the gow. “Well, does she give milk?" in- quired Mr. Schwab in desperation. “Gosh, replied the cow's owner, ““but I'll tell you one thing, she's a good natured cow and it she has any milk she'll glve it to you.” ’ On the western tour, scheduled to begin Friday evening Mr. Davis will go first to Richmond and Indiana- polis, Indiana, arriving Saturday.

[DR. FRANK CRANE'S DAILY EDITORIAL The Passing of Silver By DR. FRANK CRANE Although silver will always have uses as a precious metal its day of ning the table seems to be over. And for the very best of reasons: there is no one to keep it elean. Hired girls are too costly to le employed by any but the most fortunate, in polishing without end, and daughters who are willing to spend the greater part of their lives burnishing silver are mostly things of the past All of us can remember when the silver water pitcher and soup turcen were objects of ornament for grandmother’s table, With the decay of Victorian prosperity, says the London Times, silver may have grown thinner, but its tradition was bravely maintalned for a while. Daughters of the Trafalgar ladies liked their hairbrushes to glit- ter with the heads of Sir Joshua's angels; their prayer books and hymn books were bound in perilous filigree; they put up brackets between a couple of Japanese fans on which the heroes of South Africa were im- mortalized in silver statuettes, The progress of Democracy carried silver into the hwmblest homes, where gttenuated vases, conspicuously hall- marked, gave gentility to the wal er. All are gone or are going. The kingly tureen, which by reason of its extreme weight King James had so much difficulty in carrying, has gone with James. The vase, the statuette, and the filigree prayer book have been sent to the dealers. Even the rose howl, which in its rich flutings used to reflect the surroundipg flush of mahogany and distort the features of our hungry ancestors, has given way to stained steel. We are all turning to substitutes and, the uniformity of silver being gone, we reveal ourselves in our choice of them. Cut glass. majolict and other understudtes ate doing its work By and by we shall only see silver articles of use and adornment in the muscums. Copyright, 1924, by The McCiure Newspader Syndicata ador
