Not a Matter Of Ambition.

Those who urge the nomination Of
q conservative" candidate by the
democratic convention studiously
insist that "Mr. Bryan's friends say
he does not want the nomination, "
But Is this the real Issue? The presi.
Dental nomination ought not to be
regarded as q compliment to be
handed to some one because he
would be pleased to have It. A can.
didate should be selected because the
rank and file OF the party want him
nominated-not merely because he
wants the nomination. First, what
will the party stand for? Second
who can best represent these princi
pies In the campaign? These ques'
lions ought to control the selection
Mems ambitions ought not to count
for much In a presidential contest :

Which Is the Wrong Wright

From the Seattle Times.
Mayor George Wright, OF Tacoma,
as mayor, has sued George Wright,
who Is himself, but not mayor, to
condemn his own property for street
widening purposes. As mayor,
Wright believes he is doing the right
thing, but as George Wright he does
not believe the mayor is right, and
he has called upon the courts to de-
eide which Wright is wrong. 1t is
easy to see just how the suit will
come out, for II Mayor Wright wins,
George Wright will lose, which may
lead one to think that Mayor Wright
Is right, and therefore the right
Wright-untii 1t Is remembered that
George Wrightis just as much mayor
as Mayor Wright, and thinks he is
more right than Mayor Wright. As
both Wrights are the same Wright,
and may be right, 1t is pulling to
write so that there may be no mis-
take as TO the rights OF both Wrights,
when II either Wright be wrong, the
other Wright is right, and jet the
same Wright that is wrong.

Walton Denies Train Story

The Richards Progress.sayst that
W. R. Walton denies the published
stories that he stopped q passenger
train to force payment for some
mules the Missouri Pacific had killed
for Walton. The Progress says:
"The facts In the case are, that W.
R. Walton, who lives northeast Of
here, was simply protecting his own
property. A bunch of his cattle got
through the railroad fence onto the
right.oi.way Monday and Mr.. Wal
ton was trying to drive them off,
when the noon train came: along.
Mr.. Walton motioned the engineer
to stop, so that none of the cattle
might be killed. He considers that
he was doing the railroadlpeople a
favor, as some Of the cattle would
surely have been killed! MIR. Walton
recently had some horses killed by
the same train and hss.la claim on
file for $500. Later when:::a claim
agent called to see him, a ..compro-
mise proposition Of 800 waslmade.
This proposition is now being con-
sdered by the railroad people,"

No 1-Cent Harvesters Rate.

Topeka, July 15.-The railroads
will not put in rate Of one cent a
mile for parties Of five from Chicago
and other Eastern points to the
Kansas harvest fields. That Is the
decision OF j. s. Black, passenger
traffic manager OF the Atchison,
Topeka & Santa Fe, and the other
roads probably will follow his lead.
In a letter to Governor Hoch and
T. B. Gerow, Mr.. Black says that
the low rate plan was tried once and
was q failure. Further than this
Mr.. Black said that the low rate
would serve to demoralize the CON-
mercial business OF the company and
this would be Improbable. T. B.
Gerow says that he will prepare a
letter In which he will say that Mr..
Blacks reasons for not granting the
rate are nothing more than a subter-
iuge.

When the envelope containing the
check came back to him from the

was too high. Instead OF kick, II
contained a check for $4,000, with a

total cost Is only about $l2, 900 for
all the exhibits that the states palace
building contains. But with this
small amount Of expenditure, Mis-.
souri, has surpassed all other states
excepting only the Old Dominion
herself. Missouri has displays.oi hor-
ticulture, agriculture, mining, manu-
featuring and commerce. The CON-
bined display covers less than 1000
feet, but visitors are struck with the
comprehensiveness OF the display.
