IS TOR DAVIS A few days ago some of the demo cratic friends of Searl S. Davis, who has in the past been a strong up holder of the republican faith, aye even of the present administration, decided that they would try and cap ture the goat of the president of the chamber of commerce and accord ingly while he was absent from his office they entered his car parked near the office and placed on the rear window of the sedan a Davis and Bryan sticker and which Mr. Davis left there for several hours or until his attention was called to it, when as a true follower of "Silent Cal" he hastily removed the flaming beacon of democracy. This morning Mr. Davis was ap proached by a representative of the Journal and asked as to whether this was a joke or a real conversion to the teachings of the great democratic party which had come to Searl as a beam of great white light. Mr. Davis stated that it was partly true, he is for Davis but, Troy L. Davis of Weeping Water, bis brother, who is running for representative, and not John W. Davis, the candidate for president.
