WANT To
HEAR JOHNSON
Bryan Requests the Minnesota
Governor to Meet Him
at FairvieW.

st. Paul, July Ex-Governor John A
Johnson of Minnesota today received a
letter from W. ]. Bryan asking him to
meet Mr.. Bryan at Fairview. Lincoln,
Neb.. at the earliest date possible to
confer relative to the presidential cam
paign. Mr. Bryan asked Governor
Johnson when he could be available for
speaking purposes.
The latter question is asked. Mr..
Bryan says, because of the numerous
requests that have been received for
Governor Johnson for speaking dates
in the various states He says the de-
mand in this respect is general and he
hopes the Minnesota governor will be
able to give them his attention.
Mr.. Bryan refers to the visit made
him at Lincoln by the Minnesota Dell
egation to the Denver convention. He
was told then that Governor Johnson
would be available when wanted and
he now FASTENED to request his pres
ence at Fairview that details concern
ing the campaign may be talked over.
Governor Johnson is on lecture
tour, but the contents of Mr.. Bryan's
letter were wired him. 1t is expected
that on it's receipt Governor Johnson
will go direct to Fairview. In the alb
sence of Governor Johnson the text Of
the letter was not given out.

OPINION IN FRANCE.
Trade Will Result in Far-Reaching
Reforms in Turkey.

Paris. July 25.-In the matter of the
sudden turn of events in Turkey, the
general opinion In French political circles
is that the sultan's theatrical restoration
of the constitution of 1878 promises much,
and probably will end in far-reaching re-
forms which will transform Turkey and
put a natural end to that problem whlch
frequently has brought Europe to the
verge of war.
This opinion is not based upon the idea
that the sultan is really converted TO
constitutionalism. but upon the COM
pIete change that has come about in
the Turkish situation since the sultan
fooled the powers and his subjects In
1876. The Temps today points out That
the Young Turks with their hands on the
army were able to strike at the heart or
absolutism.
1.-THE young Turks will not let them
selves be duped with tranquility: they
will only come in if the sultan Is sincere
II not the fight will be resumed, says
that paper.
The foreign office also shares the view
that the powers must halt. wait ana
adopt a position of benevolent neutrality
toward the young Turks.
The only thing France would OBJECT 10
would be an attempt on the part OF any
power to take advantage or the present
situation.

CORNER COLLAPSED.
New Crop of Oats Causes Drop in
the Price.

Chicago. July 25.-A natural cor
ner" in oats came to a sudden end to-
day when the price of July delivery
dropped 6 cents per bushel on the
board of trade here. The severe slump
caused little excitement, however, ow-
ing to the fact that trade in that option
had been very small for some time
past because of the congested condition
of the market. Likelihood that the
movement of the crop will begin on
liberal scale within the next few days
was chiefly responsible for the decline.
The price at the opening was 561k. and
shortly before the close 1t had touched
