Hay Will BE High.

It seems a probability that hay will
continue high one more year. says an
exchange. Last years drought affect
ed the area Of meadows in the West

place condition below the average.
Some dry weather this year has cut
the possibilities of the crop badly. In
portions of the East the weather has
been equally dry.

| ROSE is NOMINATED.
WISCONSIN DEMOCRATS CHOOSE
HIM FOR GOVERNOR.
First Ballot Puts the Milwaukee Man
in Line - Six Candidates for High
Office Presented to De1egates-P1at-
form Ignores Money Question.
Milwaukee correspondence !:


David S. Rose of Milwaukee was nomi
mated on the first ballot Wednesday night
for Governor of Wisconsin by the State
Democratic convention. He was chosen
over five other men who had been put in
nomination. The nomination was made
unanimous.
When nominations for Governor We're
called for there were six responses.
James Gallagher of Lafayette nominat-
ed David s. Rose, Joseph L. Mahoney of
GAINESVILLE named J. Il. Jones, Col. Geo.
W. Bird of Madison presented the name
of Burr w. Jones, Joseph G. Donnelly of
Milwaukee named Geo. w. Peck, an Tn
expected nomination which set the con-
vention wild and presaged trouble for all
the other candidates. John f. Doherty
Of La Crosse named DR.. w. A. Anderson
and Karl Mathie of Wausau put Neal
Browns name before the convention.
The seconding speeches were numerous
and long.
The strength of Rose was so evident on
the first ballot that the other candidates
gave up when it was seen that he had Il
majority and there was a rush to change
to Rose.
The result of the informal ballot was
as follows:
Rose, 3S4; B. w Jones, 81: Peck, SO;
Anderson, ~; Brown, 81; j. F. Jones, II.
On motion the informal ballot was
made formal and Rose was declared the
nominee for Governor. A further motion
to make the nomination unanimous was
carried.
John Wattawa of Kewaunee was nomi-
mated for Lieutenant Governor by accla-
nation.
At midnight Mayor Rose was brought
in. He said he had not solicited a vote,
but felt it his duty to the State to accept
the nomination. The applause followed
him through a speech in which he prom
ised a vigorous campaign.
The convention then adjourned to 10
a. IN. Thursday.

Preferred the Coast.

Professor Elliott, of the Agricul-
tural College, has declined to go tc
Kansas and accept a position there
at larger salary than he now re-
ceives. The judgment of the gen.
tleman is worthy of commentator.
There are more things than salary
to be considered. The difference
between the JOY of living III Wash
ington and that of living in Kansas
is hardly to be measured i'll cash,
but if such measurement is to be
employed, the result must be ex-
pressed in thousands and not mere
hundreds. This conclusion may
readily be supported by the facts.
Kansas is not a desirable section
in which to live. 1t is subject to
extreme cold and heat, drouths,
billiards., hoppers, cyclones and
human freaks. When the crop does
not fail by lack of water it is apt to
be carried away by flood. If it es-
capes both mischances, something
eats it down to the ground. Kan
sas is so situated that its industrial
growth is necessarily slow, and the
future does not hold out great prom
Use. The tide of active emigration
passes it by. It's own young men
leave for the farther west as soon as
the opportunity is presented.
Washington seems to possess ev-
cry advantage of climate that Kan
sas lacks. In the Sound country
there is neither heat nor cold as
those terms are understood in Kan
sas. Nobody gets sunstruck, and
the danger of freezing is as remote
as that Of being eaten by lion.
There are no violent winds, no saw
age displays of electric force. The
rain falls with surety, and the dry
season is not extended enough to
cause suffering to crops or stock.
Moreover, Washington is new. Vast
as its resources are known to be,
their splendid possibilities have only
begun to be realized family. In re-
lation to the great business of ORR
entail traffic it is better equipped
than any other part of the land.
Even California, with its long
stretch of sea line, has to yield the
palm, both for distance and super
iority of harbors.
To leave Washington and settle
in Kansas would be strange move
for an enterprising man. Evolution
does not operate backwards. Ia

HOMECOMING W. FROsTBuRG.
At the Driving Park ground here last
Saturday afternoon the last game of the
season of 1902 was played between ''Our
Own" and Tom Smiths aggregation from
Homecoming.
The work of both teams was really high
class in every department.
The day was an ideal one for the sport and
the crowd, though large was good-natured
and inclined to give applause to every player
who did his plain duty whether he belonged
to Frostburg or Coney.
Both umpires gave their decisions honestly
and impartially. There was not Il wrangle
to mar the pleasure of the struggle, for which
spectators and players alike are thankful.
Frank Spates was in his old position for
the ocals-the first time he has played with
the home team this season. Every fan i'll
Frostburg welcomes him back to his old
place and he showed his appreciation of
this fact by playing an excellent game both
in the field and at the bat.
Wolfe was the slab artist and his work was
that of "top-notcher." -Four hits were the
extent of the visitors touches while -
famed the autumn atmosphere. Though
the game was lost it was no fault of his
Owen Jackson was off in his catching
But for this fact many are of the opinion a
different story would be told.
Tom Jackson on first, Taylor on second
and Gunnett on third, played good ball.
In the out-iield big Jim Williams covered
the velit like Pittsburg professional. His
three catches in left field were of the scnsa-
tional order.
George Gunnett. in the middle garden,
made great catch that brought the crowd
to their feet
Gcrlach never got chance in the field.
All in all, the club, though losers, played
a game that not one need he ashamed of.
For the visitors Patterson, the twirler, was
the bright particular star He had all the
essentials that make pitcher great and he
used them to good advantage.
Raley, the receiving general, gave him
pretty good support though he has caught
many a better game.
Tate in the out-tield made some fine
catches, and his hitting was the best on
either team.
Brother Harry Smiths latest importation
wasn't one, two, three with Hugh Cosgrove.
ID. Raley and Burns played in good style.
Layman, of Carlos, and Quinn, of Iona

manner.
