BRYAN AT DENVER.

BRYAN AT DENVER.
That William Jennings Bryan viii
be nominated as the democratic can
didate for president at Denver is more
certain than that Taft would be nom
mated by the republicans two weeks
before the meeting of the Chicago CON
yeDtion. bryan has already, from the
several states, more than two-thirds
of the delegates whe will sit in the
democratic convention and these del
sesates have been accorded him be-
cause Of the admiration for the man
and the universal confidence in his
honesty and his qualification to make
one of the greatest presidents this
country ever knew. Bryan has had NO
national administration at his back.
AS old Taft in the campaign FOR dele
gates; he has had no Offices to offer
in return for support and he has no
official or political machine to care
for his interests throughout the coun-
try, but he has had more. and that is
the popularity of the government poll
. ,cies proposed by him twelve years
ago and which have grown so i'm
mensely popular since then that the
republican president adopted many Of
them and has been belaboring con
gress with the big stick" during the
past year trying to have these policies
enacted into law.
While Colonel Bryan has gone down
TO defeat twice as the democratic can
,didete for presiden: the democrats OF
the country are more willing now to
give him support again as the leader
than they ever were before. Some of
the strongest democratic party lead
-ers of the past who were led away
from the support of Bryan in 1906 be-
cause Of disagreement with the candi-
date on the money question are to-
day found among his most enthusiast
tie and confident Supporters; Waiter
son of KenJucky may %" mentioned,
but there are many others scattered
throughout the nation.

court candidate from its ticket tactical blunder,
it seeks strange in its attempt to Justify the
course of the boilers.
The Tribune remembers that, some four years ago,
Mr. Dubois caused to be inserted or tried to have
inserted Gin which the Tribune is in error, IN a
democratic platform plank favoring the separation
of judicial elections from political elections
Although it does not make the statement directly,
the Lewiston paper seeks to leave the impression
that the rump convention of Jack-Mormons passed
over the judicial nomination out of Difference to the
four-year- old Judgment of Mr.. Dubois
1t is time to call in the representatives of the
lost cause who are wandering the eastern side
of the hemisphere, in search of the consolation of
the democratic national committee, that they may
pass upon the heresy of the brother who inflicted
this cruel wound upon the pride of the vanquished
The Tribune affects to believe that the plank to
which it refers should prevent The Scnlitar from
employing the line of argument and statutory quota
ton through which it has charged the rump con-
vention with offering bride to the supreme court.
1t would have been better to have left the subject
alone than to have plead so weak an extenuation.
There has been nothing profoundly inexcusable in
its long career of outrage against society as the
attempt of the ecclesiastical bunch to bestow its
sought favor upon the judiciary of the state.

Pronounced Dead.

Washington Herald Brig. Gen Daniel H. Ruck-
er, retired, has been pronounced dead by the New
York Life Insurance company
1T isn't so,' he declares.
Under American experience tables of mortality
all lives assumed to have expired before the age
of nnety-six; and officially you will have to be dead
so that we pay you off and cancel your policy"
is the tenor of the company's reply
Gen. Rucker was so angry he went down to the
companys office in the Washington Loan and Trust
company building. He wanted it distinctly under
stood that he was not dead, and that he would live
as long as he wanted to live
But the company has offered him his award which
amounts to large, round sum, and, he accepted
1t, he will be considered dead. At least his name
will be cancelled, and big rubber stamp will put
Dead in red letters on the policy sheet.
Gen. Rucker, who has passed the milestone where
his payments cease by so many years that he had
almost forgotten the insurance policy, admits he

Growing in Popularity.

Republican spellbinders are still perspiring over
their self imposed task of proving that disaster turks
in the democratic plan for insuring the return of
money deposited in banks. Meanwhile national banks
of Oklahoma surrendering their charters that
they may reorganize state banks under the provi
sions of the guarantee law and the people of the
contiguous state of Kansas are moving for the dup
lication of the Oklahoma guarantee by their own
legislature
Many of the distinguished of the republican
party, Mr.. Taft among the number, have been I'm
wise enough to attempt to explain why such law is
a thing not to be desired and have failed SO I'm
mistakably that the plan continues to grow in pop
ularity.
1t is possible that the election may turn against
the republican party on that issue. The recent
monetary panic, with failed banks and lost deposits
all over the country has developed acute interest
in the issue and practical men see nothing but
benefit in a banking system that nsures depostors
against loss.
Without much doubt, every depositor in the bank
that failed at Boise would experience sense of
qualification had the banking laws of Idaho con-
tanned the Oklahoma provision at the time when the
failure swept their earnings away.

Where Is Boundary Line?
J l.-..-e-e-.e-s...-ss

A strip OF land about quarter OF
mile in width and IS miles in
length lies between Spokane and
Stevens counties, says the Spokane
Chronicle.
The title to 1t might be claimed
by either county, but neither can
prove possession.
The people living in this strip
have taken advantage Of their pecu-
liar condition, and many Of them are
not paying taxes in either county,
claiming when the assessor Of Spo-
kane county comes along that they
are residents Of Stevens county, and
vice versa when the assessor happens
to hail from Stevens county
What makes this possible is that
the boundary line between the two
counties is so uncertain as to make 1t
impossible for any one to say just
where II is.
When Spokane county was cut off
from Stevens county the legislative
enactment creating this county de-
scrlbed the boundary in such a man
ner that the line dividing Spokane
county from Stevens county on the
west started from the junction of the
Little Spokane river with the Spokane
river and thence ran north to the
township line between townships 29
and 30, thence east to the Idaho
line.

DOGS AND BOYS ENRICH HIM

Tarrytown, N Y, has more dogs
than is good for them. The problem
of getting rid of them proved a SER
ious one for Poundmaster William
Martin. He struck il rich when he
resolved to have the small boy help
him. He advertised in the larry
town News as follows:
Dogs Wanted-To any boy who
will bring me a dog I will give him
six tickets for the moving picture
show that will give him an opportu-
nifty to enjoy himself every night in
the week. William Martin, Pound
master"
Martin gets S1.25 from the village
for each dog he kills, and the tickets
cost him 25 cents He clears S25 a
day. The boys are securing the viii
lage for dogs, and they say when the
supply in Tarrytown runs short they
will go to other villages and ring
them in. The moving picture show is
also reaping a harvest, as the small
boys are filling the hall nightly.

FOR BACHELOR WOMEN ONLY
Fast Portland TO Have the First Wo-

Portland can claim distinction on
many good things, but to be the first
city to build an apartment house for
self-supportlng women is looked on
as an enviable record to have.
The plans for the West side bache-
lor womens apartment house are al
ready drawn. | have sen them, and
they are ideal, even to a usable roof

ing has been overlooked to make the
woman comfortable at her home in
her own individual nest. w. NJ. Nor
gan, architect, is planning this
To be sure, there have been hotels
built for women in which they were
herded and fed and governed by
rules, but that is a very different
thing from this, which provides an
actual home for each woman in
which she is sole mistress Still
every woman who has the right spirit
and lives in place Of this kind will
never lose sight Of the fact that in
some things she must think of the
house as an individual with a charac-
ter and n reputation to maintain and
preserve, and she will therefore never
do anything to smirch the fair fame
Of this aggregation Of little homes OF
which hers Is one.
She will be proud of the house as
a whole and do her own part towards
keeping up the tone Of it as a whole,
never forgetting that an apartment
house for women will need the self
respecting care of its every inmate
II 1t IS to remain what she, would have
it be--an institution of which every
body in the city will be proud
1t IS sad to look back and think Of
all the miseries working women have
in their efforts to house
themselves in the past and it is /
equally inspirting to look forward /.
and feel that this West Side house
which Mr.. Morgan has so we'll de- /
signed will be but the first of many,
as this will undoubtedly be complet-
ed before the East Side house on the
Madison Villa property, and so will
set the pace for other cities.
