WATTERSON AND BRYAN.
Editor Says He Has Begged Demo
cratic Leader to Quit.

BOONE. Iowa, November 16.-Col.
Henry Watterson, asked yesterday by a
reporter for his opinion on William J.
Bryan's tentative acceptance of the demo-
cratic presid initial nomination. declared
that he had labored with Bryan to have
him decline the nomination and to quit
his dog in the manger'' attitude. Col.
Watterson realized that Bryan had it in
his power to demand the leadership of
the democratic party in 1903 or defeat
any other candidate by knitting him as
he did Parker"
Bryan's acceptance was no more than
he had expected. however greatly he re-
GREETED the action, because he thought
Bryan could no longer create enthusiasm.
as he had been before the people too
many times
Asked about the assertion often made
that the next President would be Roose-
welt Or Bryan. Col Watterson said that
the nomination of Roosevelt was all Bry-
an supporters wanted, because they could
then go to the people on the third term
slogan Bryan could carry New England
in such campaign, he thought. Roose-
welt, by such an act, would MeXicanize
this government, holding himself as great
er than Washington
AS for himself, much as he disliked to
do 50, Col Watterson would vote for
Bryan against Roosevelt in such a d.
lemma. He believed. however, that Roose-
Welt would decline another nomination
as he had nothing to gain and the re-
publican party had many men of presi-
dental caliber. He mentioned especially
Taft. Hughes and Crane of Massa chu-
sets He said Senator Crane would
make strong man on the argument that
New England had not had President for
a long time.

as well as the Drawn we will reap the
benefits that now go to others. To develop
these brains Howard University was es-
tablished.
Soon after the close of the war, and
after lie period of optimism. when the
colored race became the downtrodden peo-
pie, many went to the north and have re-
NAMED there. leaving their brethren in the
south to work out their own salvation.
But We shall never accomplish the up
building of the race by fleeing from our
responsibilities. There is more need for
cool heads, for cultured intellects, among
the negroes of the south than ever before.
One can do more by a year of work among
the colored people of the south than in a
lifetime of theoriZing a hundred or a thou
sand miles away"
This part of Mr.. Napier's address was
frequently interrupted by applause.
DR.. Thirkield's Address
President Thirkield, in opening the
meeting, reviewed the series of meetings
held in connection with his installation
and the celebration of the fortieth an
niversary previous to last night. He
spoke of the spirit of the alumni of the
university who in an afternoon pledged
$4,000 toward a new science hall. And
he declared that it was a great occa-
sion in the history of any university
when the President of the United States
a captain of industry met on one plat
form and spoke in praise of the institu-
ton. He further referred to the address,
es by Secretary Garfield and Commission
er of Education Elmer Brown.
Let US be thankful that in its fortieth
year, the university has brought forth
such great returns

stated. You may well take the advice
of a former speaker. Fit yourself for the

which followed that of Mr.. Napier was
given by Rev. G. F. Miller. He declared
the university should be a factory OF

the quality and quantity Of work should
be as good as that of any other university.
That the alumni of Howard University
should stand as. high as the graduates of
