Former Actress Active.
Mrs. lzetta Brown, of \Veat Vir-
ginia. was a. popular actress before
her marriage to an ex-congrezlsman
from \l‘est Virginia, and has become
one of the principal women demo-
cratic politicians. It was Mrs. Brown
who nominated John W'. Davis for
President at the last Dcmooralic
conclavc at San Francisco. She rc-
eently made a,ciosc race for the,
[hind States senatorship from her
state.
Mrs. Cantrlll, one of the women
democratic leaders from the Blue
Grass State. is the wife of cx—rcprc-
sentaiive Cantrill, of Kentucky and
is one of the most live and energetic-
womau workers at the convention.
These are but a handful of the
group of earnest women workers
who are working with might and
main that the Democratic party may
nominate a. candidate who will have
the confidence of the people. a. can-
didate whose nomination and elec-
tion will be a guarantee that we
will return to an era. of clean Gov-
ernment, that the money changers
will be driven from the temple and
that those who have been guilty of
malfeasance and mlsfcztnce in offices
of public trust \\ ill be punished. The
men, steepcd‘in political traditions
of more than a century. cannot get
away from the angle of personalities
and it is around personalities that
the activities of the men are concen-
trated. True. the women have their
preference as to candidates, but
their preference is based not upon
a desire to see the election of a can—

Oarsmen Will
‘Row in the Olympics
at Paris This Year
ANAPOLIS, JJune 27.—-Whils
there is much disappointment among
members of the local contingent over
the. failure of either Navy crew to
win the honor of representing the
United States in the Olympic this
year. it is felt that. in'winnlng sec-
ond and third positions and losing
to ’such a. wonderful crew as Yale by
such slight margins. much credit was
won.
Members of both crews. as well as
other: connected with the service,
all express pleasure over the fact
that Yale decided to enter for the
Olympics. taking the position that
they did not wish to represent this
country it there was I. better crew
in the United States. Nothing but
praise is given to Yale. and it is con-
ceded that it has a wonderful eight
and will be a. worthy representa-
tire.
The fine showing of the Naval
Academy crew. after an unfortunate
season. has done much to encourage
the oarsmen as to the situation next
season. It is pointed out that the
midshipmen. the third to finish. were
just about a. length behind the win-
nt-r. and actually battered the pre-
\‘ious world's record for 2.000 me-
tors.
Next season should find the Nah
\‘fll Academy a. dangerous contestant
for intercollegiate honors. and it is
highly probable that it will be at
