On WEDNESDAY next, July 2|tn'
President Roosevelt will be notified at
Oyster Bay that on June 10th last ne
was nominated for President as the can
didate of the republican party at con-
vention held in Chicago. Mr.. Roose-
welt has had some slight intimation that
no has been nominated without the
slightest effort on his part and has had
this in his mind from the day he stood
Inv the bier of the dead Mckinley and
declared it would be his aim "to con-
tinue absolutely unbroken the policy OF
President Mckinley, for the peace
prosperity and honor ofthe country. Inc

End ahe President delighted to see
them. thereupon he will be prevailed
upon to accept the crown which he has
labored so courageously and persistently

audiences of the honor which has been
thrust upon him, entirely extempora'
neous. will be recited. 1t may be
known, however, to either former Sec
retary Hoar or Attorney General Knox
who have recently visited Oyster Bay,
what the President will desire to EN-
phasize in his impromptu remarks.
His natural propensity for races, "a
race with cowboys on the prairies-
his race up San Juan hill-his race
after bears in Mississippi and his trace
suicide" comments, will quite naturally
suggest something on racial lines. The
Columbus Inquirer-Sun in recent issue
said:
The news comes from "a trust
worthy source in Washington that
Mr.. Roosevelt ''intends to settle the
race question in the South when he is
elected President. 1t is to be hoped
that the race question will settle Mr.
Roosevelt before he is elected President
Well, this is as it should be, but al
the President can talk as we'll as write
auently, and at times Interestingly, 1t
boped he will tell just how he intend
"to settle the race question in the Souil
when he is elected President" Thl
done, few will find fault should he sue
coed ipfastening himself, his party, auC
his policies on the country.

Fall of a Meteor.

Cumberland, Nd, July 22.-When
R G. Richardson and wife of Keyser
W. Va, went 10 Mountain Lake Park
to occupy their cottage they found an
object lying on the porch, which mysti-
fed them. A geologist from the Smith
sonian Institution, who is guest at one
of the hotels, examined the object which
resembled large turtle and pronounced
it meteor. The geologist states that the
meteor descended with aspinning motion
and that the earth's action was counter
balanced by heattraction in the heavens
50 that when the meteor had about set
tied upon the earth, it had almost
ceased moving. This is the reason given
for the cottage not being damaged. The
meteor weighs 500 pounds.

THE New York Herald in an editorial
Yesterday said Judge Parker has already
won the confidence of the American
people. "and that kind of confidence
President Roosevelt has not inspired. "
The editorial arraigns President Roose-
Welt for his dictatorial ways, his rough
riderism, his imperialism and says the
people admire him for his personal
qualities, but "doubt his capacity for
self-control, distrust his judgment, and
question his conception of presidential
duties" AS the Herald usually follows
rather than leads public opinion the edi-
torial is regarded with some significance.

Consumption is a sure cure for all lung

Yesterday we had a primary election
for delegates to the Democratic Nation
al Convention in which the Hearst
boomers We're defeated. 1t went off very
quietly and started again the discuss
ion as to self-goyernment for the Dis
trict. A good many Of both parties
oppose it on the ground chat, one third
of our people being negros, they would
always hold the balance of power and
sometimes elect the city officers in con-
junction with various kinds of white
trash. At The same time it is felt to be
a dismal anomaly and contradiction to
the spirit of our republic that its cap
ital should be controlled by az oligar-
chy of three men, elected by nobody.
and as truly despotic in its makeup as
the Council of Ten in old Venice.

The trial of Gen. James N. Tyner,
indicted for conspiracy to defraud, in
connection with the Postofice depart
ment, goes languidly forward in our
criminal court. Gen. Tyner, formerly
a member of Congress, and member
OF President Grants cabinet, is aged,
sick, shriveled and an object of compass
sion. 1t is alleged that his wife in his
interest riAed the department safe of in
eliminating papers. But it is felt here
that he is being used as scapegoat to
save the really guilty from punishment.
Although brought into court in an arm.

patty and calls for decision of his
case on its merits.
