KERN SELECTED
BY ACC[AMAT TON
Not Even Ballot Required to Give
Indiana Man Second Place on.
Presidential Ticket.

Denver.-The Democratic pationar
convention concluded its labors late.
Friday afternoon by the nomination,
of John Worth Kern of Indiana for
vice-president, completing the ticket
on which William J. Bryan was made
the nominee for president during the
early morning hours OF Friday. The
nomination of Mr.. Kern was made by
reclamation amid the resounding
cheers of delegates and spectators.
No ballot was necessary as the
tide OF sentiment had set irresistibly
toward the Indiana candidate, state
after state registering their delega-
tons in its favor. and all other can
didates Withdrawing before the uni
versal demand for his nomination.
Indiana presented the name Of
Kern; Colorado, through Ex-Governor
Thomas, placed in nomination Charles
A. Towne OF New York; Connecticut
presented Archibald Mcneil, and Geor-
gla Clark Howell. The names of
Judge George Gray of Delaware and
John Mitchell of Illinois were not pre-
scented, owing to the positive requests
OF these men not to have thir names
go before the convention.
Mr.. Towne in person was the first
candidate to recognize the decisive
nature of the Kern movement, and in
a ringing speech he withdrew his
name from consideration and pledged
his support to the ticket of Bryan and
Kern. Withdrawals quickly followed
from the supporters OF Howell Of
Georgia and Mcneil of Connecticut,
leaving the Indiana candidate alone
in the field.
The withdrawal Of the Connecticut
candidate was accompanied by a mo-
ton that the nomination OF Kern be
made by reclamation. The motion
carried with deafening shout, and
the great assemblage broke into clam
orous demonstration on the accom-
plishment of its work and the compile
ton of the Democratic national ticket.
The nomination was made at 4:23
O'clock, and the convention thereupon
adjourned without day.
John Worth Kern was born on De
cember 20, 1S49, at the village Of Alto,
Howard county, Indiana. His father,
DR.. Jacob W. Kern, was Virginian
by birth. John was educated in the
district schools and continued his ed
ucation by attending the Indiana nor.
NAL school of Kokomo. Ind, riding
horseback ten miles each way every
day. Later he taught school near
Alto. He earned money to enter
Michigan university at Ann Arbor.

the trouble was. She was extremely
nervous; the least little thing would
upset her; her tongue was coated. and
at times she would have good ap-
petite, then again could not bear the
sight of food she was restless at
night, had a bad breath, especially
when she got up of mornings. We
tried everything to relieve her, but
met with no success. We were just
on the point Of giving up trying any
thing else, when we began to read OF
Cooper's New Discovery. Several days
ago we purchased this medicine. Jes-
sic has been using it regularly, and
this morning this parasite left her
system. l don't wonder that she has
always felt bad, and nothing we would
give her seemed to relieve her. Now
that she is relieved of this tapeworm
l feel sure that she will grow better
each day, and enjoy perfect health.
Mr.. Cooper, your medicine is worth a
thousand times more than you charge
for it. I know of a number of people
troubled the same way as Jessie has
been, and 1 certainly expect to tell
them personally to try your medicine. j
We would advise anyone who has
been troubled for some time with gen
eral poor health to try this great med

Bryan and Watson.

Charlotte Observer.
There is very little difference
between what Mr.. Bryan be-
lieves in and what Mr.. Watson
believes in" remarks The Cataw-
ba County News, in commenting
upon the Populist national con-
ventiOn's proceeding, so those
who wanted to wait and endorse
Bryan after the Democrats have
nominated him were not so wide
of the mark as some peoplemigbt
suppose" We don't believe any
cody ever supposed; for a micro
SEQ e of many diameters magni
flying power would be needed to
detect the slightest material diff
ference between the Bryan and
Watson creeds, and very few
people have such instruments at
command. Mr.. Bryan and Mr..
Watson stand for the same
things, they are both honorable
men and if one excelS in physi=
cal and emotional energy, the
other is greatly his intellectual
superior. Mr.. Watson might be
termed the brains of Populism
and Mr.. Bryan its tongue. Mr..
Bryan, if nominated at Denver,
will receive official Democratic
sanction; otherwise, choice be
tween this Westerner and this
Southerner, whether regarded
as choice of evils or the reverse
would be the nearest possibleap
proach to no choice at all.

The interest created in leading cities
during the past year by young MT.
Cooper with his new preparation. Is
largely accounted for by a peculiar
quality possessed by this medicine,
which he calls his New Discovery.
Mr.. Cooper believes that internal
PARASITES, or tapeworms, are respOn-
sible for much i'll health, and it is an
undoubted fact that his medicine has
expelled immense numbers OF these
creatures in various cities visited by
him. The young man also believes
that stomach trouble is the main cause
of all i'll health. He claims that few
can have poor health with a good di-
gestion. He further claims that his
New Discovery medicine does nothing
but tone up the stomach, yet it not
only expels the parasites, but relieves
many other ailments not as a rule as

important to the owner that every
