PRESIDENT TO CHURCHMEN
Mr.. ROOSEVELT ADDRESSES 4
CROWD OF METHODlsTs.
Talks to Them of Duties of Good CitI.
zens and Especially of the
Women.

Washington, May 18.-Many scores
of Methodists who have been attend
ing the general conference of their
church in Baltimore this week came to
Washington Saturday to see the ma
TONS capital and to pay their re-
spects to the president.
Mr.. Roosevelt received them with
cordially and delivered a graceful and
earnest address that pleased them
highly. After paying a warm tribute
to the work of the Methodist church
in America in the past, he spoke of
the task it has to perform in the pres
ent, and then expatiated on the as.
sured brightness of the country's fu.
ture and the duties of good citizens.
He continued:
IF the average man is brave and
hard-working and clean-living, If the
average woman has the qualities
which make a good wife and good
mother, If each has self-respect, and if
each realizes that the greatest thing
in life is the chance to do service
why, then the future of the nation is
secure. We must condemn the man
who fails to do his duty by the public,
who is a bad. neighbor, an idler, an in
considerate and selfish husband, a neg
lectful father. So also we must con
denim the oma who, whether from
cowardice or GOODNESS, from selfish
love of ease or from lack of all true
womanly quality, refuses to do Alright
her great and all-essential duties of
wifehood and motherhood. We admire
a good man; but we admire a good
woman more We believe in her more.
"All honor is due the man who does
his full duty in war; but even more
honor is due the mother; for the birth
pangs make all men the debtors of all
women. No human being has a great
err title to respect than the mother who
does her full duty, who bears and
rears plenty of healthy children, so
that there shall be national growth
and not national ~decadence, SO that in
quality and in. quantity our people
shall increase. The measure of our
belief in and respect for the good man
and the good woman must be the
measure of our condemnation of the
man and the m who, whether
from viciousness or selfishness or from
vapid folly, fails to do each his or her
duty in his or her special sphere"

MINNESOTA DEMOCRATS STAND
BY THEIR FAvoRlTE SON,
THE GOVERNOR.
Have No Second choice-Nebraskan's
Supporters Do Not Garry Out
Threat to Bolt-WyomIng for Him
Taft Wins Oregon.

st. Paul, Mimi, May 15.-The Demo-
Gratis of Minnesota Thursday formally
Endorsed Gov. John A. Johnson as a
presidential candidate and at the same
time, by a vote of 772 to 166, refused
to declare in favor of William Jen-
nings Bryan as second choice.
The followers of Mr.. Bryan did not
carry out the theat which they had
80 often made during the last ten days
that they would bolt and hold a
rump convention If their contests were
defeated before the committee on Gre
dentials, or If they were not able to Sc
cure a partial Endorsement of their
leader. They made a sturdy fight for
their man, and when they had been
overwhelmingly defeated, remained
quietly in their seats and made no mo-
ton to leave.
The Johnson men were generous in
their victory and declared in their plat
form that while they entertained ian
affection for and confidence in the in
tegrity and ability of William ]. Bry-
an" they believed that Johnson was a
man better calculated to bring success
to the Democratic party and was first
entitled to the support of Minnesota.
Wyoming for Bryan.
Cheyenne, Wyo., May 15.-The Dem
ocratic state convention Thursday Sc
lected delegates to the national con-
vention and instructed for William J..
Bryan. Resolutions were adopted ia
voring the election of United States
senators by direct vote of the people;
favoring an amendment to the Sher-
"a antitrust law excepting labor
unions from the effect of it's prOvi-
sions, and opposing the forest reserve
| policy of the present national admins
| tration.
Oregon Republicans for Taft.
Portland, Ore, May 15.-Oregon's
eight delegates to the Republican ma
tional convention were instructed for
Secretary Taft Thursday at the state
and congressional district conventions.
The three conventions were absolutely
in control of the Taft people, led
by Senator Charles w. Fulton's
friends.
Late in the afternoon, after the con.
vention had passed resolutions in
structing for Taft, a message was re-
ceived from Senator Bourne at Wash
ington urging that the delegates be in
structed for President Roosevelt and
stating that If otherwise instructed he
did not wish to be a delegate.
Alaska Republicans Split.
Ketchikan, Alaska, May 15.-Amid tn.
multuous scenes, the Alaskan Repub.
lican convention split Wednesday
night, with the result that c%ontesting
delegations will be sent to the national
convention at Chicago. The break was
precipitated by the action of the Gre
dentials committee, controlled by Gov
Hoggatt, in refusing to seat the regu'
lar delegates from Nome and Fair
banks and admitting the c%ontesting
forces.
The Hoggatt convention nominated
j. w. Corson of Nome for delegate tc
congress and the contesting faction in.
dorsed Thomas Gale, the incumbent
who was elected on the miners nonpar
tisan ticket two years ago. Both con
ventions ratified the platform adopted
at Juneau, indorsing W. H. Taft fol
president.

UNIFORM OF NAVY IS BARRED
Sailors From Presidents Yacht Refuses
Admission to Pavilion at
Oyster Bay.

Oyster Bay, Sept. 1.-Several sail
ors from the presidents yacht Sylph,
which is stationed here under Lieut..
Roger Williams for the presidents
use during his vacation, were refused
admittance to a dancing pavilion in
the village Saturday night. The pa
vilion is attached to the Innside inn,
Oyster Bays only seashore hotel, and
is open to the public. Saturday night
was n of the first nights the pavil-
ion was open, it being a new place.
The announcement of the opening had
been advertised about the village by
posters, and every n vas invited.
There were a large number of per-
sons dancing in the pavilion when the
sailors from the Sylph, in uniform, ap-
peared. They made an attempt to go
on the floor, but were prevented from
doing so by an attendant stationed at
the pavilion entrance. A long argu-
ment followed, the sailors claiming
that the uniform of the United States
navy should not bar them from any
place.
The men of the presidents yacht
are all picked men, and no trouble has
been experienced from them any
where in the village this summer.
