Editor News -
AS it is very apparent that the
Improvement Go. can not cope
with the situation relating to
our streets and irrigation ditch
es, it would seem that it de-
wolves upon the citizens of Ala
mOgOrdO to take action looking
to an improvement in present
conditions.
In many parts of town the
bitches are SO clogged with
weeds and mud that the water
can not flow through, but breaks
overland floods streets and walks,
tearing them out and rendering
them almost impossible at times.
Again, the rank growth Of
weeds is a nuisance and menace
to health, and a disgrace to the
town. Let each property owner
and resident manifest his pride
in the looks of our town by cut
ting down the weeds adjoining
his premises and we will have
accomplished much; then per-
haps part of the precinct road
labor and tax might be available
to cooperate with Improvement

free from weeds and mud, thus
protecting in large measure oul
streets from overflow. Perhaps
the recently organized Ladies
League has plans in this drec
tion; if so, now is the time fol
putting them into operation.
There are also some crOssingl
and bridges having large hole

The attention Of Chairman o

SULLIVAN
WHO'S WHO N DEMOCRACY7
Bryan Isn't It Where Sullivan
Lives.

Peoria, ILL.,, Aug. 2l.-The
Democratic state convention to-
day by q vote of 1888 to $40
placed upon the table the re-
quest of VIM. J. Bryan for
the resignation of Roger O. Sui
Ivan from the national commit
tee.
Despite the fast that Mr..
Bryan had declared that he did
not wish to be endorsed unless
Sullivan was repudiated, the
convention declared him to be
the one and only man capable of
leading the Democratic party to
victory in 1908.
The Endorsement of Mr.. Bryan
and the tabling Of the motion
colling for the resignation of
Mr.. Sullivan came at the close
of . most exciting session of the
convention in which there were
several fights and throughout
confusion reigned supreme.
The committee on resolutions
declined to report plank call
ing for the resignation of Sui
livan, and the debate followed
upon Q motion made in the con-
ventiOn by Judge Owen ThOmp-
son, of Jacksonville, calling for
Sullivaii's resignation. 1t had
been agreed that each side should
have for9y-iive minutes in which
to present its side of the case,
and Judge Thompson was the
first advocate of the cause Of
MIR. Bryan. He allowed his feel
ings to carry him somewhat to
an extreme, and around the hos
tility of Sullivan's friends, by
the unsparing manner in which
he dwelt upon the last Demo
cratic convention at Springfield.
He strobe up and down the plat
form, his face white with wrath
and his form shaking with the
intensity of his feelings. His
caustic criticisms finally lost him
the eaa ST the convention and he
might never have been able tC
conclude if Mr.. Sullivan had moi
personally requested quiet.
Sullivan, who followed Thomp
son, and who, was the first speak
er in his own behalf, declared
that the ear Of Mr.. Bryan hat
been poisoned against him an(
that the demand for his resigna
tion sprang from his persona.
enemies.
Great feeling was displayed OF
both sides during the debate
and ct times personalities of !
disagreeable character were in
dulged in by various speakers.
The end came on a motion
made by ex-C Congressman Kern
Of Belleville, that the reques
for the resignation Of Mr.. Sui
liyan be laid on the table, 3
Feeling during the roll call o.
this proposition ran high. Th
votes Of several counties wer
challenged, and one delegat
from Warren county declares
that the vote of that county ha'
beend deliberately gorbled. Whe
al these difficulties had bee
enlightened out the vote was de

THE MINERVA ELECTION.
Two Tickets, Besides Scratching" Keep
Tellers Busy for Hours.

Although five attempts TO make UP an inde-

Minerva Club failed on account Of the unWiH-
ingness of the persons nominated to face the
task Of steering the ship Of state through the
troublous seas in which it has been struggling
Of late, a sixth attempt was successful, and an
independent ticket was presented 10 the electors
at the WaIdorf-Astoria yesterday. The result
was a lively contest, which kept the tellers busy
for four five hours.
Mrs Howard MacNutt nominated by
both the independent and the official ticket, as
president, and was elected though her name
was scratched" a good many times in favor OF
Mrs Richard Bent, Mrs Belle Gray Taylor, who
has resigned, and Mrs. NJ. Stone. The chief con-
test was about the office of treasurer, and Mrs.
John H Gordon, of the independent ticket got
about forty votes out OF 1O2. The former treas
urer and official nominee, Mrs. A. 3 JaInlsoh'
haus of the official ticket, defeated Mrs. j.
Theodore OdeN Of the independents, for the
office Of first vice-president, and Mrs. James H.
Petit was named by both as second Vice-presi-
cording secretary over Mrs. Frank Cronise, OF
the independent ticket, but the Independents
carried the Office Of corresponding secretary,
Mrs John F. Yawger defeating Mrs. Charles r.

TO UTILIZE CHURCH PROPERTY.
Scheme to Build Apartment House Urged by
St Michael's Members.

Some Of the prominent members OF St. MichaeVs
Protestant Episcopal Church. Amsterdam-ave. and
99th-st.. have suggested the advisability OF the
erection by the corporation OF a large apartment
house property owned by It and occupied
by the recory. Dr. John P Peters. the rector. told
a Tribune reporter yesterday that the proposition
stlll in the visionary stage.
The suggestion IS in line with what other
churches have done and are thinking of-that is TO
use some Of their available property for income
bearing buildings. The Church OF the ArchangeI.
St Nicholas-ave and u4th-st. has recently finished
a church. which includes parish house and
rooms for the various societies, well as apart
ments for rent. The official board OF the Westmin-
ster Church, in West 23d-st is considering the ad-
visibility Of improving Of its property so as
to produce substantial revenue
DR.. Peters would talk about the plans for tbe
proposed apartment house OF St. AiichaeI's Church
for as yet he said. there none. The plot
occupied by the rectory however would make an
excellent site for apartment building the apart
ments Of which would command good rentals
Apartments for the rector would, Of course be
included. 1850 ~
The present recory is an old fashioned three str,
