campaign exhibitions. 5 .{s
Mr.. Bryan, whose plan was to
reach the city this forenoon, had
changed his schedule SO as to bring
him in at 1 o'clock tomorrow This
change precluded any possible meet
Ing between the candidates
The disappointing feature Of the
Taft demonstration In Lincoln was
the bad condition Of the voice Of the
candidate. He said he had talked
continually throughout the day in
the open air, and this, added to the
strain he has been put under during
every day for the past eight days,
made him decidedly hoarse.
The big meeting tonight was held
at the Auditorium which was crowd,
ed with enthusiastic shouters for Mr..
Taft. It was here that the candidate
paid his respects to Mr.. Bryan re,
garding campaign contributions and
what ne said was heartily APPROX

Creston, Iowa, Sept 3O.--Trayersing
the southeastern and southern por-
lions Of Iowa, all day in ordinary
coaches, William j. Bryan concluded
his whirlWind experimenting tour of
more than three weeks, at this place
tonight, where open-air meetings we're
held. 1fNo greater demonstration has
been accorded him anywhere than in
Iowa, from the, moment he entered
it until he left. ..r& Y
When he took a late train for Lin
coin, he had delivered during the day
four speeches to immense crowds, a
number Of whom were farmers, who
manifested the greatest. of interest
in what he had to say. In all. these
he devoted himself principally to the
discussion of the. platform of the two
parties with special reference. to pub:
licity of campaign contributions, the
election of senators by direct vote Of
the people, and the tariff. He was
unsparing in, his attacks upon the
president and Mr., Taft and once again
declared that the president had de-
graded the high office he holds by
participating in the campaign instead
of leaving Mr.. Taft and him to fight II
out alone. , NJ

able excoriation ever delivered in
the history of American politics was
given to William j. Bryan and the

Tombstone. Ariz., Aug. 10.-The pa- thetic case of General D. K. Ward well, veteran of the Mexican and the civil wars, and his wife, who Is a leper. may soon be disposed of by the territorial officers. It is possible that the devotion of the husband will pre- vail and that he will be permitted to remain with his afflicted wife. It is purposed to isolate the pair near this place and keep them under care and treatment of county officers. The fact that the form of leprosy of which the woman is suffering is not likely to be communicated by association or con- tact makes the solution of the problem easier.

 Admiral Sperry fin reply dwelt on the great work ir the furtherance of the peace of the world that is being done by Great Britain and America and on the common interests of the two coun. tries in the Pacific, which he declared were growing in magnitude daily. He said the meeting of the British and Atlantic fleets at Auckland made for the maintenance of ,le principles of The Hague peace conference and An. glo-Saxon interests.
 Cheers For Our Officers and Men.
 After the ceremonies of welcome a procession was formed. the route being through Queen street to Drill hall. where Arthur Myers. the mayor. ac. corded Rear Admiral Sperry a civic welcome. An artistic souvenir port. folio was presented to the admiral. Queen street was lined by thousands of spectators. who enthusiastically cheered the American officers and men as the procession passed.
 Rear Admiral Sperry's message to the people of Australasia says:
 Forty years ago visited Australia and carried away the most pleasant memories. The officers and men of the Atlantic fleet keenly appreciate this exceptional opportunity for a better ac. quaintance with the people of New Zealand and Australia. to whom we feel we are closely related and with whom we have many interests fin com mon"
 Tn an interview Admiral Sperry said the cruise of the fleet from San Fran. cisco had effected a great improve ment in the active work of the men. The economy fin coaling learned made possible trips hitherto not possible. and he could not steam from Honolulu to Sydney without coaling. The ad. miral added that splendid results had been attained in tactical work and gunnery during the cruise.

 Lincoln, Neb., Aug. 10.-Reports have been coming into Fairview for sev. eral days concerning conditions in some of the doubtful states. It is recog. nized as too early yet to get much of a line on the probable outcome in them but careful observers who have visit. ed these states have been able to SC. cure preliminary information and have brought it here.
 All of them have brought eucourag. ing reports from Indiana and Illinois and practically all of them from Ohio. Usually they assert as indisputable that Bryan and Kern will carry Indiana. As to Illinois and Ohio. the report usu- ally has been, we have a good chance there"

Four Men Named Are to Report on

 There Is Too Much Belief Among
 All Our People That the Prizes of
 Life Lie Away From the Farm"
 Says Mir. Roosevelt.
 Oyster Bay, \. l., Aug. 10.-With A view to bringing about better social. sanitary and economic conditions on American farms President Roosevelt has requested four experts on country life to make an investigation into the whole matter and to report to him with recommendations for improvements. The report and recommendations which the president himself may desire to make will be incorporated in a mes- sage which he will send to congress probably early next year.
 In a letter to one of these experts. Professor L. H. Bailey of the New York College of Agriculture, Mir. Roosevelt says:
 No nation has even achieved permanent greatness unless this greatness was based on the wellbeing of the great farmer class, the men who live on the soil. for It is upon their welfare, material or nor al. that the welfare of the rest of the na- ton ultimately rests. In the United States disregarding certain sections and taking the nation as a whole, I believe it tO be true that the farmers in general are better of today than they ever were before.

Tor example. where the department of ag- rieulture. through the farmers co-opera- tive demonstration work of Dr. Knapp. IS directly instructinE more than 5000 farmers in better methods of farming. there is nevertheless much unnecessary sufersng and needless loss of efficiency on the farm
