PROHIBITION CANDIDATE IN THE FIELD.
JOHN G. wooLLEY INFORMED OF NOMINATION
FOR PRESIDENT

Chicago. July 2O.-John G. Woolley, Prohibition
candidate for the Presidency of the United States.
informed Of his nomination at a meeting held
tonight in Central Music Hall The hall was
crowded with members of the party and the
speeches of Samuel Dickie, Of Albion. Mich, who
acted chairman of the National Convention
which placed Mr.. Woolley in nomination and of
Mr.. Woolley received with great enthusiasm
Oliver w. Stewart chairman of the Executive
Committee for the State of Illinois, presided and
made a short address in opening the meeting. He
then brought forward Mr. Dickie, who spoke in
part follows:
We are here to give official notice to the Presi-
has been chosen to lead what to many is sure
20 seem a forlorn hope.
The speaker dwelt at some length on the hui
manitaran aspect Of the nations Of the earth rush
ing to prevent the outrages in China and declared
/ the woes and havoc created by rum far exceeded
those of the yellow terror beyond the Pacific;
that the nominee of the Prohibition party
doing what the nominee of other
party dared do, and that to throw down the
gauntlet of defiance to the liquor party The nomi-
nee of the Prohibtionists stood, he said for all
that the Church represented, and yet it was not
all that the churches would stand by him
in his fight against the rum power.
Mr. Woolley, upon rising reply to the speech
of Mr.. Dicke. was received with cheers. He ac-
cepted the nomination In a speech of considerable
length. He said in the course of it:
accept this nomination not the leader of a
greatest forward movement Of humanity. For 1t
seems well within lines OF the most studious mod
Grafton to believe that organized conscience, as
represented by the Church, and organized greed as
represented by the liquor traffic, are forming rap
idly in American politics for the greatest pitched
battle of the ages and in that light he is the chief
of billiards who cannot pick the winner.
Our success depends upon the advancement OF no
candidate. II 1t were SO, We might well feel dis
couraged at the prospect. Our issue is real
nominee, and II only half million Christian men
be true we will elect it on November next.
At the conclusion of the speech of acceptance by
Mr.. Woolley short addresses were made by the
members Of the Notification CommIttee-the Rev
Dr. s. c. Swallow. Of Harrisburg Penn; Hale
Johnson, of Newton ILL.,. and +. w. Chahn Of
Waukesha. Wis. A number of speeches were made
by other Prohibitionists All OF the speakers in
sisted that the evils of reality greater
than any other that confront the Nation to-day.

MAKING WHEAT FLOUR IN JAPAN.

Portland. Ore, July 20. c. Robinson a we'll
known mill man, has received a sample of -four
from a mill in Yokohama. The -four was manu-
featured from a cargo of wheat sent from here
several months ago, and to all appearances is a
first class article Along with the sample of
which the Japanese are seemingly proud comes the
statement that the actual cost of the manufact-
ured article was on the basis of 81 80 a barrel at
PACING Coast point. AS s. 80 a barrel is the low
est figure yet reported for flour sent the Orient
it would seem from this that the Japanese were
in fair way to become active competitors for the
flour trade of the Orient.

SUFFERING AMONG INDIANS.

There is more or less suffering
among the Indians who are farming
lands in severalty in the country con-
tguous to Cando and Rolla. Their
condition and lack of proper clothing
are the direct result Of the contrary
weather conditions last season, caus-
ing them to lose their crops, and thus,
the incident means to enable them to
make provision for the wintry blasts
and cold. 1t is said that some fam
daies among the Dunseith full -bIoods
are in a pitiable condition from lack
Of clothing. Two gentlement driyi1g
in the settlement where the Indians
live, a few days before Thanksgiving,
We're witnesses of some pftiable sights.
The weather was bitterly cold, so much
SO that the most warmly clad prison
found difficulty in keeping out the
searching winds which were blowing
across the open prairie. At one In.
dian hut, where they stopped they
found the man of the family clad only
in single muslin garment and a pair
of improvised trousers made out of
-four sacks. The mother and chill
dren were just a little better clothed.
