Washington 10. making the total $50.
Before this could be announced Gov

Cockrelrs name and moved that
Parker's nomination be made unani-
NOUS. This was done with yell and
a demonstration started everybody was
too tired, however, to offer very much
enthusiasm and a motion to adjourn
was greeted with a howl of animation
as eleven thousand spectators and a
thousand delegates made haste for the
exists.
For nearly ten long hours masterful
men leaders Of the party battled with
all the strength ingenuity that long
years and experience had endowed
them to win the fight. Twelve thousand
excited men and women cheered their
favorites and jeered the opposing
forces. They hurrahed, yelled and
shrieked for half an hour at a time
They stampeded until the building
trembled. In the reservation on the
floor Grim leaders, calm and despite
with the awful strain to which they

ST. LOUIS, July e.--Bryan's last
stand in the convention was made with
hollow but biasing eyes. and voice %
husky It seemed to tear the very hesh
In his throat. Dawn shone In upon
the siclsly lights Of the convention hall,
where thousands Of people, weary to
a verge Of collapse sat and listened to
the proud Qualification Of the beaten
leader.
Il return to you the standard you
gave me to bear" he thundered. Il
may have failed in wisdom and may
have lost Nights. but defy any man
to say have been false to my trust or
untrue to democracy"
Eight years ago the democratic COM

ard ana the party gave me commission
as its candidate. Four years later the
commission renewed. ! come tonight
to this democratic convention to re-
turn the commission and say that you
may dispute whether fought a good
fight. you may dispute whether nm
ished my course, but you can not deny
I kept the faith. A candidate did
all could to bring success to the
party. Az a private citizen today am
more interested in democratic success
than I ever was when I was a can
didate."
The reasons that made the election
Of democrats desirable were stronger
in 1900 than in 1895 and the reasons
that make the election OF democratic
candidate desirable are stronger In
1904 than in 1900. The gentlemen who
presented New York's candidate dwelt
upon the dangers of militarism and he
did not over estimate the danger.
Bryan quoted an extract from Blacks
speech nominating Roosevelt. declar-
ing that war still has its uses. This

The Carnegie library has been turned
over to the city of Lewiston by the
contractors Frazier & Booth and within
. short time. the able efforts Of the
ladies' Of the Tsceminicum club who
were instrumental in receiving the
contribution from Mr.. Carnegie maxi
ing it possible for Lewiston to have a
creditable institution Of this character.
will be rewarded by the occupancy and
use of this public building.
The public library in Lewiston was
inaugurated over four years ago at the
instance Of the ladies Of the Tscemini-
cum club who have been persistent in
maintaining the institution ever since.
The first bill Of books. amounting to
little over 800 were purchased from
the proceeds Of an entertainment given
by this worthy club organization.
These books were presented to the city
OF Lewiston as the nucleus of a free
library. the city to furnish home and
care for the same. which was furnished
IN one OF the spacious rooms Of the
city hall building.
Since making this small beginning
the members Of the club have been un-
tiring in their efforts to raise funds for
DOCKS, and have succeeded beyond their
oest expectations. The library now
mas 1000 volumes, and supply Of
standard magazines and papers for the
reading ROOM
decidedly the greatest feature of
success in the undertaking Is the rapid
increase Of patronage. At FIRST the IL
orary was open only two afternoons
each week but 30 great was the de-
mand for books that after only a few
months 1t was opened from one to mine
every day and two to five Sundays at
present. During the last year the books
oi the librarian show that she has given
OUT $4,000 volumes for home reading
ana over 1000 for reference use in the
library. This il a record almost in
credioie In town Of this size, and Is
most positive proof that the library is
popular and useful public institution
me DOCKS are selected with a view to
seeping balance between the different
uepartments Of history. science, poetry
osraphy. juvenile books, ETC., 80 that
n readers may find something OF in
est. 1t is a matter Of congratulation
the city government has shown a
oeressive spirit from the first, toward
library, doing everything possible
aod to Its growth and usefulness.
