cedure is most circuitous and my trial

slope leading to the creek. Mrs.
Stein leaped from the machine as II
struck the water. and, aided by her
husband, managed To swim ashore.
Mr.. MINIS. standing on the machine
with his head just out of water. called
frantically for his wife, who had dis.

that II was his wife, held prisoner by
the machine. With the assistance OF
Justice Stein. Mr.. MINIS released her
and dragged her TO shore in an uncon-
scious condition. She had swallowed
large quantities OF the muddy water

Mrs. MINIS was taken to the inn,
where she was attended by DR.. j. A.

ENGLISH PAPER DRAWS
ATTENTION TO INDIA

| LONDON, July The London
Daily Telegraph, which has consist
emily drawn attention TO the seditious
spirit In India, publishes the following
from its Bombay correspondent:
! Some examples OF the evil which
the press act is designed to check are
afforded by the proceedings in the
Bombay police court against two ma.
tive newspapers. In one case Ram
chandra Narayen Mandlik. b. A. a
Konkani Chitpavan Brahmin. q years
old. editor. printer and publisher OF
the Wharf. weekly Marathi newspa-
per. published in Bombay. appeared
to answer a charge OF publishing Sc
ditious matter in his paper. In the
Wharf OF April l3 last were verses,
under Marathi heading. which could
be rendered In English. The Awak-
ering." Some Of the stanzas were TO
the following effect. ,.s
This land Of ours IL our second
mother. Howmenaa NaRs calealx witness
her persecution? You came out OF
her ribs. Why did you not die In the
very first month?
Your motherland, who feeds and
fattens you. has tainted. How do you
forget her? Fie upon you. you brutes.
You cast slur on the glory OF
your forefathers, who acquired the
treasure Of bright fame by performing
deeds of valor. Fie upon you, you
brutes.
This cruel king is ruling over you,
Why do you always humble yourselves
before him? Why did you lose your In
dependence by your own conduct? File
upon you. you brutes!
Owing to the persecution practiced
by him even religion Is destroyed.
How is 1t that anger is not produced
in your minds? Why do you remain
still like lifeless beings? Fie upon
you. you brutes.
when the Almighty created this
universe He bestowed freedom upon
all. That being lost. how can you
remain quiet? You should die on the
battlefield for the sake Of indepen-
dence.'
An article in another issue Of the
same paper was to the effect that they
had no name. no country. They had
long been trodden under foot. Now
the fire was to be extinguished; they
wanted individual liberty and national
union. They had intense hatred
against the foreigners. but they were
nonpulsed by brute force. People spat
on their faces they should begin to
oct quickly. When ground. the knife
acquired a keen edge.

Mr.. Bryan's best Nhope Is that or
ganized labor will come over TO him
To an extent sufficiently to counter
act the inroads made by the lndepend
ence party.
The mysterious visit OF Congress
man Ollie JAMES, OF Kentucky, and
James +. Lamb, an Indiana leader. to
Fairview last night, has every news
paper sleuth on the Fairview beat
guessing.
A personal friend OF the Kentucky
congressman, who came from Colorado
on the same train asserted that Bry'
an had insisted upon James accept
ance OF the national Craftsmanship
and that the latter was disposed to
accept.
After the conference at Fairview.
which lasted until nearly midnight.
Mr.. James decided that the guess was
wrong If II indicated his choice He
admitted that Bryan had confided TO
him the names OF several men suitable
TO assume the management OF the
campaign. but the Kentuckian insist
ed that the candidate must do the an
nouncing.
Prefer a Business Man.
The astute friends Of Bryan In his
home town are hopeful that the selec-
ton will fall upon a business man OF
prominence nationally, rather than a
politician.
Such man they assert would add
prestige to the Democratic campaign.
They point out that Bryan's previous
campaign managers have been politi-
clans who acted sisnally in their eff
forts to the presidential prize.
Mr.. Bryan was lounging about his
Fairview home, today. The intense
heat OF the past few days has compell-
ed him to refrain almost entirely from
his labors of answering correspond
ence. also forbidding any attention to
the preparation OF his letter and
speech OF acceptance.
