candidate for the nomination for re-
preventative subject to the decision of
the republican voters at the primary

any time to the campaign, is an indir
cation that the voters of the district
are disposed to be fair and will recog-
nize the right of Traverse county to
one of the three members to which
the district is entitled. ] have been a
resident here for the past thirty years,
and most of you are therefore in
position to know from personal know
ledge whether or not am worthy of
your support. So far as my time will
permit shall endeavor to see as many
as can and talk the situation over
with you personally, but it will be inn .
possible to see all as the time is short
and the crops on my farm must be
cared for. In case receive the NOM
nation and election which I seek,
| shall endeavor to faithfully represent
the district and give you no cause to
regret your choice. I ask for your
fair consideration of my candidacy
and your vote if you conclude that
Traverse county is entitled to re-

SHERMAN TOLD OF
HIS NOMINATION
Vice Presidential Candidate AC-
cepts in Brief Speech.

Utica, N. Y, Aug. 18.-In one Of the
briefest speeches ever delivered by
candidate for 80 high an Office James
s.. Sherman at noon today accepted
the nomination of the Republican
party for the Woe presidency. He
spoks from flag decked stand erect
ed in front of his home in Geneses
street and was surrounded by party
leaders from different secttons OF the
country and by an enthusiastic nom
partisan crowd Of friends and fellow
townsmen. The nomination was ten
dered by Q committee appointed at the
chicago conyontion Ia June, Senator
Julius c. Burrows OF Michigan being
the chairman and spokesman. There
were brief addresses also by secre-
tary Root; by President M. W. STRIKER
OF Hamilton college. from which MIR.
Sherman was graduated; by, Mayor
Thomas Wheeler OF Utica and by
Charles 8. Symonds. chairman of the
local reception committee.
Mr.. Sherman, i'm mis- address Of ae-
ceptance, followed the example of Mr..
Taft in pledging the allegiance of any
administration with which he may
have to do to the policies of President
Roosevelt He declared there was no
issue as to whether or not "the people
shall rule"
Surely the people shall rule said
Mr. Sherman; surely the people will
rule; surely the people do rule"
Casting thus aside the campaign
slogan raised by Mr.. Bryan the Re-
publican vice presidential nominee
asserted that the 'overshadowing issue
of the campaign really is Shall the
administration of President Roosevelt
be approved?'"

Morris tribune., 1908-08-22

In spite of rumor to the contrary,
William Jennings Bryan, Democratic
candidate for the presidency of the
United States, is to speak at the Min
nesota state state, and has announced
Monday, Aug. 81, as the date of his
one and only public appearance in
this state during the coming campaign.
The official announcement of his
coming followed upon a visit of in
vitation paid him by President B. F.
Nelson of the Minnesota state fair and
Frederick Lynch, former campaign
manager for Gov. John A. Johnson.
In a previous telegraphic correspond
ence Mr.. Bryan had sent his compli-
ments to Gov. Johnson, but was un-
able to accept the invitation of the
Minnesota state fair, as he was sin
the hands of the committee"
The eloquence of Messrs. Nelson
and Lynch so pervaded Fairview,
however, as to take Mr.. Bryan out of
the hands of the committee and place
among the stellar attractions at the
semi state fair of Min
nesota.
AS a presidential candidate Mr..
Bryan refuses to speak when those
who hear him must pay an admis-
sion fee, so Mr.. Nelson has ridden
grandly between the horns of the
dilemma by planning for "Forum of
1905" Several acres nearest the
Smelling avenue gate of the state fair
grounds are to be fenced off, and this
section of the grounds is to be thrown
open to the public while the peerless
one is preaching the doctrine of De-
mocracy. The speakers platform will
be so situated as to enable the thou
sands already on the grounds to hear
him from their side of the temporary
enclosure, and at the conclusion of the
speech those who desire to enter the
fair grounds proper will be admitted
at the usual ticket price through
number of wicket gates opening from
the speakers enclosure into the main
grounds.
Mr.. Bryan has announced that he
will dwell largely upon the tariff ques-
ton, and it is quite probable that from
the same platform other speakers of
national prominence will be heard
during the week. The desirability of
presenting himself to the people of
Minnesota at the Minnesota state fair
is being properly impressed upon
William Fl. Taft, Republican candidate
for the presidency, and there are sew
eral other men of large interest to the
American public who will also appear
in this impromptu 1908 "Forum" un-
der similar conditions.
That the presence of Bryan will as
sist materially in making Monday,
Aug. 81, banner opening day in ev-
cry way is the opinion of the board of
managers, which is preparing for the
reception and entertainment of 100, 900
visitors.

cases OF killing, that many women
have been maltreated, that q large
