Hon. George Gray, Of Dele
ware. and Governor 'jUflnsOn,
of; Min1lisUta, were also placed
IN nomination.: but soon, after
the ba1loting commemorate was
seen that Mr.. Bryan would get
more than thirds on the
first ballot.
John w. Kern, of Indiana,
was nominated for Vice-Presl-
dent. And while several others
were named Mr.. Kern's nomi
nation was also almost by ac-

1t was a great convention,
characterized by great har-
mony and there were evidences
on every side that the delegates
from all the States left with
strong faith III the leaders Sc
lected and high hopes Of vic
tory in November.
For twelve years and more
Mr.. Bryan has been III the eyes
Of the Nation, having been
twice before nominated by the
Democratic party for the same
position.
In 1896 Mr.. Bryan was nomi-
mated by the National Demo

lie was defeated by William
Mckinley. In 1890 he was again
nominated by the Democratic
Convention in ST. Louis and
again defeated by William Nc

In 1904 Judge Alton B. Par
ker, of New York, was nomi-
mated by the Democratic Con-
vention in Albany, n. Y, and
was defeated by Theodore
Roosevelt,
Through ell these years, in
the face of defeat, Mr.. Bryan
has been held in high esteem by
the Demcratic party, and there
seems more hope and chance
for his election now than he has
ever had. His record is too
we'll known as a political lead

Of his life to be necessary now.
He is perhaps the best known
American citizen to-day, and
some doubt if any man on the
globe is more widely known
than William Jennings Bryan
He is also one of the most YER
satile men in the world: and
with all his wonderful powers.
his great popularity and the
enthusiasm behind his nonlina
ton, it is reasonable for the
Democratic party TO hope fol-
his election.

new ARSECRETARY
GEN. LUKE z. WRIGHT NAMED
TO SUCCEED TAFT.
Tennesseean Has Followed in Foot
steps of big Bill" for Nearly Ten
Years-Praise from the
White House.

Washington.-The fact that he is a
Democrat may prevent General Luke
E. Wright of Tennessee succeeding
William Howard Taft as Republican
nominee for President, but that will
be the first break in Wright's success
sion to Taft.
For nearly ten years Wright has lit
orally walked in the footsteps of
"Bill' Taft, and SO it was matter of
course that the president should have
announced his appointment as secre-
tary of war on the same day that
Taft gave in his resignation.
Taft went to the Philippines on the
first commission When he resigned
from the second commission to be-
come civil governor of the islands,
Wright took his place on the commits
sion.
Taft resigned as civil governor to
go to Cuba. Wright was appointed
governor.
Taft went back to the Philippines to
establish civil government, and
Wright, of course, became governor
general
Taft became a globe-trotter; Wright
went to Japan
Taft was appointed secretary of
war and has resigned. Wright was
appointed.
The statement given out at the
White House concerning Mr.. Wright's
appointment says:
LAS Philippine commissioner and
later as vice governor and governor
he won the affection and regard of the
army to a high degree, and many of
the most distinguished of the men
who served in the army at the time
he was in the Philippines have urged
his appointment, because they felt in
a peculiar way that he was their cham
pion and in peculiar way understood
them and their needs. This is espe-
cially true as regards the men who
were union veterans of the civil war.

Hiall School Course.

The state board of education issued
a course of studies for the high
schools of Kansas. This is the first
time that anything of this nature has
ever been attempted. The work has
been prepared for college, preparatory,
normal and general purposes Chan
cellor Frank Strong of the state uni
versity took an active part in the
preparation of the work. The board
believes that an up-to-date course of
this nature, filed out exclusively and
covering all new branches of work,
would be very acceptable to superin-
tendents and principals over the state.
The book contains $50 pages and is
being sent out by the board free to
all applicants.

LAS a young man he was a captain
in the confederate army. He is one
of the leading lawyers not only of
his state but of the entire south. He
has also been foremost in advocating
and insisting upon fair treatment for
the colored people. He first definitely
established his reputation in the ter
rible days Of the yellow fever epidemic
at Memphis, when he practically made
himself mayor of the town and took
charge of all the relief measures,
showing what may justly be called
heroic devotion to duty and indiffer-
ence to his own life, together with
the masterful qualities of a success
full administrator in great crisis. He
was himself struck down by the
plague he was fighting, but lived to
see it stamped out and himself to take
part in introducing into Memphis the
hygienic measures which have since
made it one of the model healthy
cities of the world.
He was appointed by President Nc
Kinley as one of the Philippine COM
mission and enjoyed President McKin-
ley's heartiest confidence being Sc
lected as one of the southerners who
were in sympathy with his administra-
ton By President Roosevelt he was
promoted first to be vice-governor and
then governor of the Philippines and
was afterward made first ambassador
to Japan In all positions he served
with signal fidelity and ability, and
has been in hearty and outspoken
agreement with the administration in
all its main policies"

A War on TubercuIar Cows.

A plan to dispose of tubercular
dairy cows has been worked out by
the state dairy commissioner. The
state pure food department will not
allow tubercular meat to be sold I'M
der the pure food law and the dairy
commissioner will not allow sales of
milk from tubercu1ar COWS so that the
dairyman is left with worthless cattle
on his hands. The legislature will
be asked to allow a small sum for
such cattle, about enough to make the
difference in value of a good dairy COW
and what the body is worth for oils.
