Low WATER AFFECTS MINES
Thousands Of Miners Unemployed by
Reason Of Drouth.

PITTsBURG, August 17.-Eighty per
cent of the coal mines along the Monon-
gahela river are idle and thousands of
miners are out Of employment as a re-
suit of the low water in the Ohio river
Practically all the coal from this district
is shipped by river, but for several weeks
the water has been SO low no shipment
could be made.
The consequence Is that every barge is
loaded with coal awaiting shipment and
no more coal can be mined until empty
barges are received to store 1t in.
The situation Is said to be the worst in
recent years, and unless there Ia sufficient
rain to raise the river enforced idleness
will cause much suffering among the
miners.

lI.-When his attention today was called
to the statement Of James W. Van Cleave
president OF the Manufacturers Associa-
ton, printed this morning. in which Mr..
Van Cleave for the second time within a
month sets forth reasons why the busi-
ness men Of the country should not vote
for the democratic candidate, Mr. Bryan
would not enter into any lengthy COM
men regarding the matter, but charged
Mr.. Van Cleave with shifting the discus
sion to other questions instead Of defend
ing what he before said.
Mr.. Van Cleave issued a statement ap-
peal1ng to business men to defeat the
democratic ticket on account of the labor
planks," said Mr.. Bryan. II replied to

many years was the democratic national
committeeman from Pennsylvania but
that Mr.. Kerr had not kept his alleged
promise. Il have never heard OF any
such offer or contribution Mr.. Bryan
declared. "and 1 do not believe there is
any truth In the report. But the proper
persons to consult would be the commit
tee on credentials and the delegates, as
they were the ones who decided the
Pennsylvania contest"
Yes, He Would Be Pleased.
In regard to the report q movement was
on foot to organize Bryan and Kern clubs
composed Of depositors who had lost

Advice to ALI Voters.

Accepting Mr.. Bryan's definition that
every man who is engaged in a work
which is useful to society is business
man; every man who contributes by
brain or muscle to the nations wealth or
the nations progress Is a business man
and that every man who is engaged in
any honorable or helpful work is also a
business man." Mr. Van Cleave rejoins:
Let me tell Mr.. Bryan that 1 have every
one Of those men in mind when pointing
out the reasons why l believe all of them
should vote against him.

Does Not Bryan KnowP


Speaking Of the guarantee fund. which
the Denver platform urges for the pay
ment of depositors of insolvent national
or state banks. Mr.. Van Cleave asks:
Does not Mr.. Bryan know that this
vicious provision would penalize the hon
est and careful banker for the benefit of
the banker who is dishonest and reckless?
Can he not see that this scheme would
remove all the safeguards which our pres
ent laws have raised up against such
plungers and grafters as have worked
their way into the control of many Of
our banks, that it would Immediately and
immensely increase the number Of such
bankers and that 1t would precipitate an
era Of extravaganza, wild speculation and
corruption. which would wreck our whole
financial System? Is not Mr.. Bryan
aware that his wildcat banking scheme
OF 1908 would bring chaos and ruin to the
country even quicker and in larger meas
ure than his silver debasement OF the
currency of 1896 and 1900 would have
brought IT,"

Dr.. Lee.

DIR. Guy Carleton Lee, whose great
history Of North America is in
process of publication, is one Of the
few men who can truthtuily say that
his education cost him nothing, and
that-nn one else maid for il The fac
here stated sounds like an impossi-
bility, but is true, nevertheless. Dr..
Lee won his way through college and
university by the simple though
rather laborious method of capturing
every prize that was offered fer the
competition OF the students.
For example, in Johns Hopkins
University he gained a scholarship
in his first year, and kept himself in
pocket money by earning a hundred
dollar prize for historical compost
ton. The second year he won an
honorary scholarship which paid his
tuition and more besides; while in his
third year, that in which he was a.
warded his Electorate of Philosophy,
not content with winning the histor-
ical fellowship, the highest honor in
the gift of the university, he gained
a teaching appointment paying him
over a thousand dollars.
How did he do it? Well, here is the
schedule which he followed for six
college years without missing a day
except Sunday, How many young
men of today would like TO follow the
strenuous life as here laid down.
"Rise at seven, exercise one hall
hour, bath and shave, breakfast
eight a. M, begin to study, attend
lectures and reclte; one p. M, lunch
one thirty, to work again; five p. IN,
exercise one half; six, dinner; seven
begin work again. Work CONSTANT.
until one a. M exercise one-hal
hour; retire"
II is not to be wondered at that tn

KINGSLEY'S SPEECH
Substitute for Clayton Had a Large
Audience and Made a Good Impression.

Democratic committeeman received
a message from State headquarters
at St. Louis, stating that Mr.. Clayton,
who was billed to speak here could
not be present. There was a crowd
coming to Lexington in anticipation

in charge Of the campaign in these

conference ensued and it was de-
cided to send to Kansas City for Hon.

ical orator of that place. Mr.. Kings
ley received the message at945 and
had literally to run to catch a train.
At 1870 the w. NJ, A. band began

a good sized crowd gathered. There
were many farmers in it, uotwith-
standing the fact that the same
afternoon w. j. Bryan was passing

upper court room. Hon. VIM. H

a half on the live issues of the cam
paign, both state and national. Il
spite Of the fact that he W.
called on at such a late hour h,
