CONVENTION SWEPT OFF IT'S FEET AT
MENTION OF CONQUERING HEROS NAME

AtAC Oils
Hero worship has kept Bryan virile
and dominant. 1t has placed the
scepter Of power in his hands among
his own kind. We see here, not only
this mighty demonstration in the
convention hall, but in all the bust
ness and proceedings of the conven-
ton, how futile were the plots
against Bryan, how hopeless the
quest of the reactionary wing for a
man with whom to overthrow him.
In the Democracy the reaction from
Parkerism to Organism was natural,
overwhelming, complete; and it
found It's voice today in the thunder
OF human feeling, in the storm of
human passion.
We have seen in both conventions
that the people still rule in this land
of ours. We have seen that Roose-
velt's will was dominant in one, as
Bryan's is in the other. We see
Roosevelt naming his successor,
though with more difficulty than il
would haveibeen to do as Bryan has
done, name himself"

Nomination of Bryan Made
at 4:3O Yesterday Morn
ing After All Night
Session.
KERN MAY BE
VICE-PRESIDENT.

O6nNeTb OOl', July w. wv ~
sions Of the Democratic national con-
vention yesterday, the first at IL
o'clock and the second beginning at
@oclock last night, have advanced
Vac work so that the platform was
adopted late at night.
Bryan, Gray and johnson were
placed in nomination and after an
all night session Bryan was nomina-
ted at 4:30 this morning, after which
the convention adjourned.
The platform, though Objectionable
in some details to the conservatives
of the party, must be pronounced by
popular verdict less radical than was
reasonably to have been expected.
1t enunciates no really new ma
terial propositions, at least none
SO new as to retain their novelty.
For the most part, indeed, with but
one or two exceptions it is a reaf-
firmation of what Democracy has
heretofore declared, but the plat
form speaks now with emphasis,
more positiveness than has usually
been done.
CLAYTON CHAIRMAN,
AS chairman of the committee on
permanent organization, Senator
McCreary, of Kentucky, presented
the report of that body at the after
noon session. 1t RECOMMENDED Hen
ry D. Clayton, of Alabama, for per-
manent chairman. Urey Woodson, of
Kentucky, for secretary, and John
l. Martin, of Missouri, as sergeant
alarms. In all other respects the
temporary organization was made
permanent.
Loud cheers of approval greeted
Chairman Clayton as he concluded
his address upon taking the chair
and the applause was continued for
several minutes. The delegates stood
on their chairs and tossed hats and
handkerchiefs into the air.
The platform committee kept the
convention waiting several hours,
during which time speeches were
made by Raymond Robins, of Chica-
go, Martin W. Littleton, of New
York, and others. There was another
long delay at night, waiting for the
platform committee, during which
speeches were made by Thos. F.
Grady, of New York, M. j. Wade,
of Iowa, Champ Clark, of Missouri,
and others, and finally the nominal
Nipss speeches were ordered before
,tstc platform was reported.
/. j. Dunn, of Chicago, nominated
Mr.. Bryan and there was another
great demonstration and parade of
banners. Gov. John A. Johnson, of
Minnesota, and Judge Geo. Gray. Of
Delaware, were also presented. Sec
onding speeches were made by sew
eral orators.
The greatest demonstration ever
seen in anv convention was precipi-
tated by the blind orator OF Oklaho-
ma, Senator I. P. Gore, Wednesday.
1t lasted 88 minutes, as compared
with the manufactured demonstra-
ton to Roosevelt at Chicago, which
lasted AZ minutes. 1t was spontane-
GUS and continued IN spite of the at
tempts of the speaker to proceed
and the efforts of the chairman to
restore order.

THE COST OF BEING LATE.

4 young Kentuckian, says the Louisville Herald, has lost a big for tune by being twenty minutes late in keeping business engagement.
 The cheerless old fellow with the scythe always gets all that is coming to him.
 And there is many bad scar on our fortunes where he has had to prod us up to the mark.
 Time is cheap, and We are apt to think we can filch it as We will. But it is always ourselves we rob, not time
 duct more important and yet more lightly neglected than that of prompt ness in keeping appointments.
 Maybe you can waste your own time by being late in keeping engage ments and feel that the loss, if any. is your own affair. But it is also the affair of the man you keep waiting. You waste his time, too. If your time is worthless, maybe his is not. He may conclude that his time is worth more to him than you are. In many cases it may not matter much. But one never knows until aft erward whether it matters or not. And through false politeness We are usually assured that it does not mai ter even when it does.
 Only the idle and careless, whose time is of the least value, can afford to waste it by looseness in keeping engagements.
 It may be hard to acouire the fixed habit of always being on time, but 1T can he done and it is worth while t& do it.
 Great business men have this habit. | Napoleon would not have been Ma poleon but for his unfailins prompt- ness.
 Men of great affairs, whose time is almost completely taken up, are usu- ally on time. It is they who know best the value of time and the inn
 portance of saving il by being prompt

 That noon, before the decision, mind you, the market fell off little. There were sales. Blocks of stock were thrown into the market It stood like a ribbon of steel-not a waver, not dent.

 If the integrity and dignity of a court is to be maintained the presid- ing judge or judges must not only as sume an air of honor and dignity, but they must not do those things which gre dishonorable; for whenever they do, the fact that they are on the bench does not save them from that censure and disgrace which they so richly de- serve, and it is their own disreputable acts which besmirch the judicial CT mine and not the mere comments of any person or body of persons upon the courts personal deeds of dis repute.
 If the integrity of the courts is to be maintained, the judges of the courts must at all times let their acts as iurists be governed by the highest sense of honor, justice and equity, and at no time bearing the slightest tinge of favoritism.

INDICTMENT OF \ FEDERAL
 COURT,

Bryan has been severely denounced for his criticism of the injunction Nowers of the courts, and President Roosevelt has been criticised because he dared to speak his mind with ref erence to the decisions rendered by some of the federal judges. The nom- inees of both the leading parties have been accused of attacking the judi ciary, therefore advocating dangerous and unsafe doctrines. But the charges made by Bryan and Roosevelt against the integrity of some of the judges of the courts of the land pale into insignificance when compared with the charge made by q Chicago broker against the judges of the United States circuit court of appeals of that. city, printed in Chicago news papers and telegraphed to all the da ly newspapers of the country. This broter's charge is to the effect that the Standard Oil Company had the as surance of 30 days ahead of time that its fine of $29,240,000 would be set aside, and that it was the common talk of La Sale street on the day be- fore the decision was rendered in the court. The following is the telegraph ic account of the matter:
 An influential member of the board of trade and pillar in financial cir cles, who, the day previous, had said In friends that he could furnish the names of Chicago brokers who had nrofited bv this knowledge, turned white yesterday when the subject was preached.
 My God.' he said. T can't talk It would ruin me-
 But he did talk. He would not give the names of the ten or fifteen local brokers who were able, in some mys- 4erious way, to assure their clients that a golden moment had come, but .-,e said there were such brokers.
 "How long before the decision do you think Standard Oil knew the line was to be reversed?' the broker was asked.
 Do I think?" he said, with empha- sis, Thirty days"
 ."How much was it worth to that company to have a foreknowledge of this decision?'
 "From s2o,ooo,ooo to s25,ooo,ooo," /" ne replied.
 tHow do you know there was such a 1eak?"

POPE PLEASED
 BY RESTORATION

Rome, July 30.-The pope received in private audience yesterday the Very Rev. Charles F. Crannon of Washington, D. C., with whom he conversed on the subject of the Cath ollie University in that city. Later the pope received the Very Rev. \. P Doyle, rector of the Apostolic Mission House, Washington. His holiness was astonlshed at the progress of the mission and warmly congratulated the rector and promised him assist ance in the work. Father Doyle pre- scented the pope with an American gold coin on which the inscription, Tn God We Trust is now restored relating to his holiness the circum- stances connected with the removal and later the restoration of the mot to.
 The pope was greatly pleased at hearing that the motto had been omit ted for reasons not connected with religion and that the religious senti ment of the country was strongly in favor of the restoration of the words.

REASONS FOR SELLING
THE SCHOOL LANDS

The fundamental principles of free
government oppose a tenantry sys-
tenn.
Congress never granted these lands
to Oklahoma with the intention that
the state should speculate on them.
The uncertain conditions brought
about by perpetual lease system will
cause these lands to depreeiate In
value.
After every quarter section now un-
der lease is sold there viii still be
enough for 10000 more homes.
The constitution provides that the
money derived from the sale Of these
lands shall be loaned on improved
real estate at ; per cent interest
per annum.
The present system Is robbing one
ninth Of our school children OF a
common school education by reason
OF an insufficient revenue In the
school land district to maintain a dis
trict school but a few months IN each
ye@r.
The income TO the school fund Of
the state viii be Increased one mil
lion dollars per year by selling these
lands
The state must construct buildings
Tor normal schools. penltentiary, or
phan asylum, a reform school, and
many other public institutions, which
cannot be done until these lands are
sold.
You men who have failed to locate
on hOmesteads, settle on good quar-
ters OF school land, cultivate them as
your own. and when Oklahoma be-
comes state you shall own them as
your homes lGoyernor Steele >
