BRIGHT WISCONSIN IDEA.
How the Badger State Works TO In
crease the States Attendance
At the Worlds Fair.

st. Louis, Aug. 18.-That the wis
consic Idea of advertising the attrac-
tions of the Worlds fair Is bearing
fruit is evidenced by the increase In
the attendance from that state. Each
day more and more visitors from the
Badger state arrived at the exposition
and the register shows that an average
of 300 each day has been attained.
The system which Secretary Grant
Thomas and Mrs. Emma j. Walsh, the
hostess of the building, have been car
rying out, is by requesting many of the
visitors to write a personal letter to
their home paper or to friends. The
commission supplies the necessary
writing material and postage. So per
sistently has this plan been followed
that the increase In attendance is pos
sibly more marked than the attendance
from any. other state.
AS an Evidence of the good will en-
gendered by visit to the Wisconsin
building 1T. ]. Mcmahon, of Belfast,
Ireland, wrote the following note be-
low his signature: "The Wisconsin
state building expresses. in one ma
terial glance the full measure of pros
perity in material things and inmate
rial potentialities which characterizes
the state. Every Badger and Badgeress
should come and bring the kids"

corted Mr.. Davis to the parlor, where
the committee was in waiting. He
was received with applause.

sires me to present you formally writ
ten notice of your nomination, to which
you are to make response later on

ber."

fication committee, Mr.. Davis said, In
part:
"The official notification which you
bring of my nomination for the vice.
presidency of the United States, by the
national democracy, gives me feeling
of the sincerest gratitude to my party
for the honor conferred. At the same
time, it brings to me a deep sense of
my responsibility to my party as a
candidate, and to my country, in case
of my election.
81 find it, therefore, great pleas
ure, standing here upon tbs borderland
of the two Virginias, to receive and
accept the commission you bear and
J to send greetings through you to the
democracy of the entire country. Is 1t
not significant of a closer and truer
brotherhood among us, that for the
| first time since the civil war nomi-
nee on the national ticket has been
| taken from the section of our common
country that lies south of Mason and
Dixons line, happy recognition OF
the obliteration of all sectional differ
ences which led to and followed that
unhappy struggle
II desire to say that | heartily in
dorse the platform upon which have
been nominated, and, with the conven-
tion and its nominee for president, re-
gard the present monetary standard Oh
value as irrevocably established.
"Mr. Chairman, it is an added pleas
ure to receive this notification at your
hands. You have been conservative
and courageous as leader of our party
In the house of representatives. a po-
sition which few men have filled with
the signal ability that you have dis
played.
"It will be my pleasure and duty, al
a time not far hence, to accept more
formally in writing the nomination
which you have rendered in such grace
full and complimentary terms, and te
give my views upon some of the i'm
portant questions now commanding the
attention of the country"

three negro tramps near the railroad
station last week. The squire issued
warrants for their arrest. The con-

dropped him gently to the ground,
and bade him a graceful farewell.

Tennessee Crops.

The department. of agriculture, in
its review of crops and crop condi-
tions in Tennessee, issued last week,
says:
Good showers fell over the greater
portion OF the State. and where they
fell crops of all kinds continue in
fine condition Of growth and develop.
ment, but In many sections, particu-
larly in the western and northwestern
counties, there has not been sufficient
rainfall for the needs of growing
products, and in some drouth condl-
tions prevail to serious extent, re-
sulting In a material lowering of pros
pective yields. In some sections of
the eastern and middle divisions the
rains were heavy and damaging.
Early corn is pretty we'll assured,
and is one Of the finest crops for
many years; late corn needs more
rain for its proper development; and
in the dry belts 1t Is rapidly detc.
riorating, and will fall far short of ex.
pectations unless sufficient rain falls
soon.
Cotton is still growing slowly, but
is in fairly good condition.
In the northwestern counties tobac.
co is beginning to need more rain for
Its proper outcome; elsewhere the
crop Is reported good.
The second crop of Irish potatoes
has been about all planted and is do
ing well; sweet potatoes are ap
preaching good maturity where sufn
cient rain has fallen.
Millet and peas, Of which there are
large crops, are ripening well; some
has been cut and secured for hay.
Flowing for fall seedlings has pro
gressed well, as rule, and some rye
and winter oats have already been
sown.
Turnips are coming up we'll and
sowing Is still In progress.
Sorghum is doing fairly well.
Wheat thrashing is rapidly ap
preaching completion, with excellen,
results.
Some damage to oats in shock by
the rains is reported; the crop, as .
rule, is excellent.
Pastures continue very good
In some sections apples, peaches
and grapes are inclined to rot, ant
fall apples are dropping off to co q
siderable extent.
Garden products are reported fne
