CALMER THROWS HAT ?N PRESIDENTIAL RING Politicians in Capital Consider Announcement as Definitely Excluding President. /mama, iuarcii i.?miuiuctv ,ucueral Palmer tonight formally announced his candidacy for the Democratic nomination for President in a telegram to Hiram L. Gardner, secretary of the Georgia State Democratic committee. Referring to the petition nied m nis behalf for the Georgia primaries, Mr. Palmer declared that "if the Democrats of Georgia see fit to select me as their choice, I shall receive the honor with deep appreciation; holding it to be highly important that an opportunity be given in the primary "to directly pass upon tl "J jrec'ord made by the present administration.'* The telegram from Mr. Palmer read as follows: Pass Upon Record^ 1 UIIQKrSUlIlU UUtb lily il^cuuo uaiu entered my name in the Presidential primaries. If the Democrats of the State of Georgia see fit to, select me as their choice, I shall receive the > _ honor with deep appreciation. I deem it highly important that the Democrats of Georgia should have the opportunity to directly pass upon the record made by the present administration. The candidacy of one who supports that record in every phase presents that opportunity." Attorney; General Palmer is the first Democrat to place his' candidacy for the Democratic nomination before * ? " * ? 1- ?i i*. me voters 01 vxeorgia, auu it *?? imported here tonight he will soon come to the state to make a personal canvas for votes. Primary April 20. The preferential primary at which white Democrats of the state will express their choice for democracy's leader will be held April -20, and to date the names of five other men in addition to Mr/Palmer hdve been offered in petitions signed by the required 100 voters. They are Champ Clark, Governor Edwards, of New Jersey, who has taken ajpublic stand against prohibition; Herbert Hoover, Robert Lansing, former Secretary of State, and William G. McAdoo, a native of Georgia and former Secretary of the Treasury. By a ruling of the State Democratic executive committee that only names of avowed Democrats could be entered, Herbert Hoover's name has not been considered by' the committee, although his supporters here still are seeking to have it entered in the primary. A move also has been started to let the voters in the primary indicate whether they desired for the Georgia delegation to go uninstructed. Mr. Palmer's name was entered in the primary recently by more than a hundred persons who signed a petition circulated by Judge S. D. Dell, of Hazelhurst, Ga. * ?_ t Washington, March 1.?The Presidential campaign from the Democratic standpoint was opened tonight, in the opinion of political leaders here through the acceptance by Attorney General Palmer of a** place on the Georgia State primary ballots. The Republican campaign "has been on for several weeks but the formal announcement by Mr. Palmer in a telegram to the secretary of the Georgia Democratic State committee, that he would be a candidate, was the first to be made by any of those who have been mentioned as possible choices of the San rrancisco convention. Democratic aspirants for the nomination have held back formal announcements awaiting a declaration by President Wilson as to his plans. Although nothing has come from the White House, the open candidacy of the Attornev General, who is partic ~ +> r ularly close to Mr. Wilson, was accepted in some quarters as definitely indicating that the President would not enter a third campaign. "Hat in the Ring." With Mr. Palmer's "hat in the ring," politicians here look for formal announcements to come quickly from those who have been holding their candidacies in the background. Governor Cox of Ohio, and James W. Gerard, former ambassador to Germany, while permitting their names to be placed on primary ballots, have not as yet made formal announcement. Others who have been mentioned in connection with the Democratic nomination include Wm. G. McAdoo, former Secretary of the Treasury; William Jennings Bryan, thrice the Democratic standard bearer; Senator Robert L. Owen, of Oklahoma; Herbert Hoover and Governor Edwards, of New Jersey. Former Secretary McAdoo, one of the first mentioned as a possible can didate, has refrained f-*om indicating in any way that he might enter the Democratic lists, but in a^-wer t"> a telegram from the mayor oi Miiledgeville. Ga., his ho ne towr, saying citizens there had circulated a petition hi his behalf, Mr. ricAdec wrote that he would not permit his name to be placed on the Georgia primary ballots. He also declared he favored uninstrueted delegates to the national convention where he expressed the hope that "the utmost freedom of action should prevail and where motives of high service alone should control." Not a Candidate. Mr. Brvan. on several recent occa J sions has asserted that he was not and I would not be a candidate. Should Mr. Bryan remain firm in his resolve, speculation as to the candidate to ob1 tain the former leader's indorsement has been widespread in political circles, Mr. Bryan is considered as having a very friendly feeling for Attorney General Palmer. The Georgia State , committee, which received Mr. Palmer's, tele-1 gram tonight, also recently received j a telegram from Mr. Hoover, peti- j tions for whom had been presented, j In this telegram the former food ad- j j ministrator said he thought nothing i : ?---'-1 niiKliV U'plfnrP I j WUUIU utr auucu w vnv. J by the use of his name in State primary. In other statements rMr. Hoover has declined to indicate his party stand, saying he would await J definition of principles before align| ing himself either with the Democrats or Republicans. " Senator Owen Strong. Senator Owen is said by some political leaders to have considerable fol- ? lowing in the Southwest and Governor Edwards' name has been brought forward largely because of his open opposition to the federal prohibition amendment. Attorney General Palmer in the view of politicians here, enters into the campaign with a substantial organization behind him. This organization, it is said, has resulted in part , from the activities of Mr. Palmer as alien property custodian during the ! -rtToy on/1 as Atfrnmpv freneral. In Illi j nois Mr. Palmer's organization is said J to be particularly strong. Last week ' he returned from a speaking trip ; which took him to Topeka, Kas., and Frankfort, Ky. Several weeks ago he! made a more extended trip through i the Middle West, with the result that j although an Eastern man, a native of j Pennsylvania he is widely known in j the Central States. j j FARMER OUT $4,800 ''STOCK" PURCHASEj i , ; J.

' i HAD CHRONIC BRONCHITIS FOR TWENTY-SIX YEARS NOW WELL AND HAPPY }THIS IS WORTH READING The experience of Mr. E. J. Toupalik, 1438 Rose street, LaCrosse, Wisconsin, is chiefly remarkable on account of the length of timo 'he was afflicted. He writes: "I have been suffering with chronic bronchitis for twenty-six years and every winter I would catch cold and bccome so hoarse I could not sp.eak for six or eight weeks. I could get only temporary relief. "This winter I was taken with Grip and was in awful shape. A fellow workman advised me to take PE-RU-NA. By the time I had used three-fourths of a bottle, the j hoarseness was gone, also that j tired feeling. I am on my second j, bottle. Hereafter PE-RU-NA will be constantly in my house. It is the best medicine ever put up for the purpose." For any disease due to catarrh or catarrhal conditions, PE-RU-NA 5s equally dependable. Coughs, \ colds, catarrh of the head, stomach j trouble, constipation, rheumatism, I pains in the back, side and loins, bloating-, belching .ms, indigestion, catarrh o^ the Jarc r and small intestirss, are- some of the troubles for ^ 'iich PE-RU-NA is especially '-eco.. > i .ide'i.
