* Woodrow Wilson.
Every Jay signs are thickening
pointing to Governor WimmIrovv
Wilson of New Jersey as the
Democratic standard-l>earer in the
next National campaign. W J
Bryan, who in spite of those
who would belittle his influence,
still weilds a potent influence in
the councils of the Democratic party,
has frankly announced his opposition
to Governor Judson Harmon
as a Presidential possibility.
Senator Gore, the eloquent Mind
statesman from Oklahoma, is Wilson's
ardent admirer and. supporter,
and numerous other men of widot
influence representing all parts of
the Union have declared for the
brilliant college president, or are
ready to do so.
At this angle it looks as if Woodrow
Wilson will l>e the man to lead
the hosts of "unterrified "Democracy
to victory in 1912, albeit The Record
is prejudiced neither for nor
against any of the several prominent
candidates now in the lime-light.
B We want to sec chosen the man l>est
K~ fitted to lead us to victory and, in
B our humble opinion, it is as yet too
B early in the game to say with any
B' degree of certainty who that man

die* come here by invitation to
H. give us the benefit of their practi9

ment and intelligent studj?with9
out asking anything in return exH.
cept a courteous hearing and the
H opportunity to impart to us new
H* ideas and to inspire our farmers,
their wives and sons and daugh39
V ters, with more resect and enH

consideration of all whom it may

i catch the Governor feeling good and
j a-k for a pardon.
Of all the silly "pot-lmilers" emjanating
from now-paper corrcspond1
eiit - recently, that story about the
; Wintbrop College graduates refusing
to receive their "sheep-skins"
at the hands of the Governor is the
stupidest. Unless the author of the
yarn was actuated merely by the

u"^ iwj/vuww. o,vv,% " " * r'
we see no motive f? ?r the fa brieation
except pure "cussedness," as no
sensible person wouM, for a moment,
be deceived thereby.
Our Like City contemporary is
pretty hard on Governor Blease's
pals. We quote the following paragraph
from last week's issue of the
"News":
Black, Tatum, Towell and Boykin
are demanding trial and that is
where they are wise and they had
best Ik* in a hurry. This administration
will not last always and the
hope of pardon will soon l>e past.
It i- extremely probable tha*. if any
other man than Blease had been
elected, Black would have bis head
shaved now; he would l>e wearing
the regulation stripes.

A DEVOTED HUSBAND
Gives Blood in Last Desperate
Effort to Save Wife's Life.
Washington, June 19:?Senator
Luke Lea of Tennessee, to save the
life of his wife, heroically sacrificed
* a quart of his blood at Georgetown
\ hospital yesterday and to-night the
j recovery of Mrs Lea is assured to the
* anxious youngest Senator ot the na1
tion.
t Mrs Lea's strength, because of
- lack of blood, was gone and her vi?
* tality was fast ebbing away, after
? ? - ? Cn./lftip Cunfltrtr
" mined upon, Senator l^es, atnietic lr
e stature, would not consent to any*
thin# but that a sacrifice of his own
^ blood to renew her vanishing
B strength be made.
But because a prime factor ir
transfusion operations is that the
bloods be fusible, tests v;ere hastily
ordered, Before the analysis was
. complete,the surgeons, Djs H D Frj
^ and 3eo Tully Vaughan,fearing that
j death might be swifter than they,
' I became alarmed at Mrs Lea's condiI

j1 any way. Just as the Senator's arm
! was bared and a tube inserted in an
v i
^ artery,word came that the bloods of
the husband and wife were fusible.
The other end of the tube, which
E?
had been inserted in Senator Lea's
e
j, arm, was connected with an in
! cision in Mrs Lea's arm, and tht
blood be^ran to flow from his veins
to those of his wife. Gradually th(
? color returned to the lips and cheeks
n
of the frail sufferer. But as Mrs
Lea's color was restored, the flush

i panied by his wife, fled to this State

When arrested today, he was engaged
in selling sewing machines
and was located at a boarding house.
! Upon his arrest by the Sheriff he
admitted that he was Avant, and
. said that he would go back to South
Carolina without requisition papers.

of good appearance.

Lea. learning of her condition, de
manded that a transfusion operatior
5 be performed and prepared at once
* to submit to the ordeal. At the end*
ing, physicians and surgeons made
5 arrangements immediately and the
operation which followed was declared
to have been successful.
Senator Lea withstood the opera1
tion well, though it left him very
* j weak, and for hours he could not
? stand alone, but the operation had a
1, great reviving effect upop his wife,
It was said that without the great
; sacrifice of Senator Lea. Mrs Lea
" could have lived but a few hours
v i To-night Mrs Lea is pronounced als
together out of danger.
Senator Lea is confined to his bee
at the hospital, his vitality being re
t duced by the transfusion operation
e It is expected, however, that he wil
be able to leave his room in a few
days. '
When heroic efforts in Mrs Lea's
behalf became imperative, and the

to
those of his wife. Gradually th(
? color returned to the lips and cheek*
n
of the frail sufferer. But as Mrs
Lea's color was restored, the flust
e
? faded from the cheeks of her hus
n
band. When the transfusion hac
continued for an hour and a half, he
? importuned the surgeons not to ar'
rest the operation while there wa*
[possibly a chance for Mrs Lea. Bui
the surgeons, realizing the weakening
effects of such a drain on the
- Senator's system, eventually stopped
e the flow. After the operation, Senator
Lea fell to the floor in a faint.
" He was immediately placed in a bed
and to-night is making splendid r?z
covery of his strength.
