THE NAMING or TowNE.

Rose, of Minnesota. followed to put

greeted his speech with more of hur-
rah than had attended Stevenson's
name. 1t came chiefly from the gal
leries and the northwestern delegates
Justify maintained the Populist shout
ers during the next ten minutes. when
word was sent to bring in a banner
bearing the portraits of Bryan and
Towne linked together. After this a
volley of Kisses started the chairman to
get the convention down again to busi-
ness
Chairman Richardson then called on
Stephen l.. White to use his big voice
in announcing that if there should be
any more turbulent demonstrations
the hall would be cleared Way was
then made for Governor Thomas. of
Colorado, to second Towne's nomina-
tion.
When Thomas retired to his seat
Thomas F. Grady, of New York, was
seen to advance slowly 20 the platform.
rs though he had something important
10 say. At the end of his first SEN
tence the convention let loose a storm.
He said on behalf of an undivided De-
mocracy in New York he was there to
present the name of David B. Hill.
Grady was not allowed to utter an
other word. The convention shouted
itself hoarse in a frenzy of tumult.
Yell after yell went up from the south
ern delegates, and Croker, who had
been seated by the side of Hill, jumped
nm and led in the cheering
Besieged by crowd around him Hill
looked at them good naturedly, and
shortly before IL o'clock, when the
tempest had Gained down, Grady re-
spokesman SAID that New YORK Was
ready to give its strongest man as the
mate to William ]. Bryan, and would
cast it's 72 votes for David B. Hill. I'm
diately Hill went to the platform and
with great deliberation he said that he
could not accept the proposed nomina-
ton. There was personal reasons, as
well as good and sufficient other rea-

cation took up a new man had been
an aggressive candidate, agreed with
his friends that his name should not
be presented to the convention. He

mony and success. | shall forego my

The Democratic national committee
met after the adjournment of the con-
vention and reelected Senator Jones,
of Arkansas, as chairman.
The silver Republican convention to-
day unanimously nominated William J.
Bryan for president, and then Charles
A. Towne made a speech in which he
said he believed it his duty to support
the ticket nominated by the Demo-
cratic convention. AS a result of this
speech, by a practically unanimous
vote, the convention referred the vice
presidential nomination to the national
committee, with plenary powers.

christ,s Discrimination.

II was not vet Jesus time to suffer;
SO in order TO escape increasing per-
secution in Galilee he LEFT The land of
Israel and tried TO hide himself in
Phocuicia somewhere not far from
Tyre and Sidon which were on the
Mediterranean sen. But his fame
had goao before him. and it was i'm
possible to remain in scclusion. His
invitations heretofore had abounded
I'm such general terms as whatsoever,
and ON numerous occasions he had up
braided the Pharisees for their ex-
cllsiyeness and even the prophet had
forctold how the genules would be
blessed with his light Now for the
first time in his ministry Jesus APP
pears in a foreign land and from his
own testimony Tyre and Sidon would
have listened quite readily to the
gosuol aot could have been converted
with only a pant OF tho effort that had
been wasted upon Charaziu and Beth
saida. We can almost regret, that he
did not boldly cast off all restraints,
imposed by the degenerate Jewish
church and that ho did not enter up
ON y wonderful mission to far scatter
ed nations
But he knew his own plans and
foresaw the future when his prin-
ciples would be applied to the heal
inc of all races. In the mean time he
restrained his love for mankind and
remained true to his first mission,
to the lost of Israel
SO now when a Greek speaking wo-
man of Caanante family came to
him telling the story of her little
daughter afflicted for tho first time in
his life, were the ears of Jesus closed
to the cry of the unfortunate He
literally paid no attention to the
mothers Importantly SO much so that
the troubled disciples begged the
Master ito send her away"
The discrimination doubtless was for
the disciples benefit. so that they
might have precedent whose i'm
port the future would make clear.
The motherheart knew no dis
couagement or caste If he could
heal other afflicted why. not heal her
afflicted?
Jesus reminded her of his mission
to Israel-thc reputed children of God
and that he could not be expected
to give their bread to dogs" as the
Jews cruelty described all foreigners.
The mother needed not the slight, and
with true woman's wit replied that
even dogs ate the crumbs that fell
from the Masters table.
The Fisherman thus drew forth the
desired confession of faith; then In
an outburst of emotion he cried. 20
woman, great is thy faith: be it unto
thee even as thou wilt"
These words of Jesus are the motto
OF the Women's Christian Temper

brought into service, and a striking
demonstration resulted AS he con-
cluded by stating that he stood upon
the platform and would support the
Democratic ticket, his hands We're
warmly clasped by Chairman Jones,
Chairman Richardson, Senator Till
man and dozen of the national COM
mitteemen grouped about him, and the
crowd again shouted itself hoarse
In conclusion, in announcing his in
tention of supporting the Democratic
party and its ticket, Mr. Davis said
with great emphasis:
II stand upon this platform and shall
support w. j. Brennings."
1t was curious and laughable con-
fusion of the syllables of Mr.. Bryans
name. But the crowd knew what he
meant and cheered him wildly, the
band struck up Hail to the Chief"
and while the band played Mr.. Davis
held an impromptu reception upon the
platform. Chairman Richardson was
the first to grasp his hand as he con-
cluded, and then Senator J. X. Jones
and others crowded around him.

CHEERING TIE STATES.
The Vote Of New York rccived with
Thundcrous Applause.

Ihen came the voting. State after
state recorded its vote in behalf of the
Nebraska candidate. and giving him
the unanimous vote of all the states
and territories. AS the roll call pro
ceeded the shouts of approval of the
unanimity of the vote seemed to in
crease. All of the large states were
cheered heartily as one after another
they cast their votes for Mr.. BRYAN.
Georgia, Indiana, Illinois, Kentucky.
Massachusetts, were cheered cordially.
but when Missouri and a minute later
Nebraska were called the convention
fairly palpitated with enthusiasm. So
it was too, when the state of New
York was called, the convention rising
to its feet and cheering. The list of
states and territories was completed
with the calling of the territory of
Hawaii.
The announcement by Chairman
Richardson that Mr.. Bryan had been
unanimously nominated for president
of the United States was received with
great applause.
The huge flag suspended from the
roof, which had played its part earlier
in the session, was again lowered. the
band played and the people cheered
Standing on their seats some of the
delegates waved flags or standards. but
the enthusiasm did not run at high
tides. As the people already were
leaving the hall, Chairman Richardson
announced at S:95 that the convention
was adjourned until 1920 this morning.
When the convention came to order
this forenoon the hall was even more
densely crowded. if that were possible
than it was last night. In the vice
presidential quotations Stevenson '>'as
in the lead at that hour Hill informed
everybody who asked him his attitude
that he considered Stevenson a proper
man. and expressed the belief that hs
own friends would be able to head off
any attempt to make a stampede for
him. It was reported that Alabama
was planning to storm the convention
for Hill and that several other del
e@atinns were being sounded to Join in
the movement.
Little time was lost after PRAYER in
preceding with the call for the roll of
states for the naming of candidates. but
it was interrupted by explanations and
by the usual Hill clamor. Hurried con-
ferences were going on among the del
egates in the New York. New Jersey
and California and Kansas sections. 1t
was said that Tillman, of South Caro-
lima. was unable to control his delega-
tion for Towne The South Carolina
delegates had been supposed to be for
Towne, and Tillman said that it looked
as if the majority of them. as well as
the majority of the convention, was
leaning toward Stevenson. At this
point Williams, of Illinois, mounted the
platform and in a short speech placed
