A. L. Itlce, n prominent manufacturer of
Adams, N. Y has discovered a process of mak
ing a new kind of paint, without the use of oil.
He calls it Powdrpaint. It comes to the con
sumer a dry powder, and all that is required is
cold water to make a paint water-proof, lire
proof and as durable as oil paint. It adheres to
any surface, wood, stone or brick, spreads and
looks like oil paint and costs about one-fourth
as much.

money changers.
Charles Carrillon, Mulberry Grovo,
HI. Enclosed please find my primary
pledge, and put me down as a S. A
Douglas democrat In 18 GO, but on ac
count of south nominating Mr. Breck
enrldge, vo.ted for Mr. Lincoln in 18G0
64 enlisted in TJ. S. army April 18,
labl, Held commission as lieutenant
during the war, and was wounded
twice. I am a Jefferson and Bryan
democrat as long as I have a button on
my coat.
D. T. Yount, Delyshi, Carroll county.
Ind.I have faith in the pledge bringl
tag out the rank and file and restoring
the party to the platforms of 189G and
J.JUU.
TxrTf; C; Howar Georgetown, Ohio.
While I do not think it necessary for
mo to sign, I do it as a favor, for after
voting the democratic ticket in 1901
I do not think they could do anything
more to prevent me from voting it. I
also pledge you my hearty support
at any and all times. I believe in
radical democracy, for it is progres
sive and seeks to advance, while the
conservative (or Stand Pat) element
believes In "let well enough alone,"
and can be of no use to struggling hu
manity; they aro but a stumbling
block to progress.
Thomas E. Quinn, Parkersburg, W
Va. Please find enclosed my pledge
signed in support of the idea you
promulgate. If the plain people do not
rally to the standard you have thus
raised they will be unworthy of the
blessings of popular government. The
St. Louis fiasco with its results, should
end all differences as to tho course
to be pursued by sincere democrats.
Wishy-washy conservatism should
no longer bo tolerated in democratic
councils.
F. H. Osier, Machinery, Pomona, Cal.
I wish to endorse this good wonc
and also other good work that is be
ing done by The Commoner. I hope
every honest democrat will tako a
hand, and in that way we will have
men on our ticket that the people want
and not those whom the trusts want
and also let every democrat work for
a platform of public ownership of pub
lic utilities. Tho people are ready
for such a development now.
Robert Kirkham, Sullivan, Ind.I
went to work yesterday afternoon to
see how many I could get to sign
your primary pledge, and the enclosed
list is the fruit of my labor. I have
the names of 110 democrats who say
they will endeavor to make old Sulli
van county roll up her old time ma
ority of sixteen hundred in 1908 by
attending tho conventions, and see
that the voice of the common people
is expressed in all resolutions and not
let a few men sell us to a political
machine organized for the purpose of
thwarting their will. I only found four
who call themselves democrats, who
refused to sign, and one of them is a
county officer, two are bankers and
the other is a member of a trust com
pany. The reason they gave for not
signing was that "Bryan was at the
head of it."
Charles L. Warfield, Chairman Dem
ocratic City Committee, San Diego,
Cal. Your primary pledge proposition
is certainly a wise and timely move.
The desire for purity in politics is
spreading to all parts of tho country.
Our city held an election of municipal
officers on the same day that Chicago
gave Judge Dunne so handsome a ma
jority. Normally the democrats are In
the minority here, but this year joined
with the independent non-machine re
publicans and elected Captain John L.
Sehon mayor, and Judge W. R. An
drews, a Jefferson-Bryan democrat,
city attorney on the democratic ticket.
This is the result of an unusually large
attendance,, at our primaries. I
heartily endorse your plan and cheer
fully send my pledge duly signed.
W. H Dupree, Island Grove, Fla.
I have names of the villagers here
principally. All aro good, honest demo
crats, as also our entlro commtinltv
not a republican to tho fiftieth man,
an aro democrats in principle. All
voters of tho Ninth district would
sign tho pledge if I called on them.
But havo not seen them. No cause of
meeting to call them together. Lator
when some public meeting is called I
can get good list and additional sub
scribers. Wish entlro success.
H. Martin Williams, Woodlawn, 111.
I can conceive of no duty more im
portant than pledging ono's self to at
tend democratic primaries for tho pur
pose of Influencing as far as ho may
bo able, a declaration of sound demo
cratic doctrino by the conventions of
tho party. The signing of this pledge
by democrats generally is tho first
step in tho direction of the organi
zation of our party and putting it on
a war footing for the great struggle
that is now on between monopoly and
special privilege, and the equal rights
of all tho people, and will mark the
beginning of tho campaign for demo
cratic democracy a campaign which
must surely end in victory for justico,
truth and right. Yours for tho democ
racy of Thomas Jefferson.
M. C. Felker, Real Estate, Chamber
lain, S. D. 1 have all my life mado it
a point to attend all conventions and
do all I could to promote democratic
principles. The first voto of mv Hfn
was for Abraham Lincoln, and the
msc lor ineouore Uoosevolt. In the
inter-times my vote was on tho losing
side with tho exception of Grovor
Cleveland, and I now wish I had voted
for Harrison. If the democratic party
can nominate a democrat instead of
a stool pigeon for Wall Street, I am
with the party, otherwise I will be
obliged to do the best I can and cast
my ballot for the best rnua.
J. P. Gibson, President and Manager
The Bank of Elmore, Elmore, Ind. Tor.
You will find enclosed tho primary
pledges of 50 true democrats, who are
loyal to tho principles enunciated by
Jefferson, defended by Jackson, resur
rected by Mr. Bryan in 1896 and fear
lessly defended by him in St. Louis
in 1904. Signing this pledge is the
duty of every democrat for we must
stand together well organized, making
direct assaults upon imperialism,
trusts and combinations if we receive
the proper legislation, favoring the
masses, instead of the few.
B. F. Patton, Nye, Mont Enclosed
find primary nledfre. I am a dGmnnrfir.
a Bryan democrat not a Grover
Cleveland democrat. I believe you are
right.
- O. N. Carter, M.D., Brookline, Mo. I
herewith enclose tho primary pledge
with which I am in hearty accord,
hoping the plan may be instrumental
in turning the balance In favor of our
victory in 1908, that equal and exact
justico may again prevail.
" T. S. Parsons. Larrro. Enclosed
please find four of The Commoner's
primary pledges with names attached.
It is not Necessary that I should take
any pledge to attend either a primary
or general election, as I believe it
to be tho duty of every honest man
to voto in every election that is if
there is an honest man on the ticket
to voto for.
E. W. Ferguson, Jr., Hartington,
Neb. This is an easy thing for me
to promise as I have been a true dis
ciple of yours since I was in my mi
nority and think I have attended every
primary as onlooker or participant for
ten years. Two or three times, only,
have there been need of such watch
fulness yet none of us know when the
critical time will come. Had other
states been as careful in their prir
maries and county conventions last
year as wo were in Nebraska, things
would have been different. Our pros
pects In 1908 must not. be clouded on
account of our criminal neglect in the
primaries the next four years. v Yours
always for truodemocracy.
J. H. Sutton, Contractor, Bethany,
Mo. Enclosed find primary pledge
