Nor is The Sentinel's list growing

new YORK NOT FOR BRYAN.
A Surprising Lack Of Public Interest
in the State Convention That
CoDVeDes Tomorrow.
Especial to The ARaUs.)

Especial to The ARGUS.)
New York, April13.-Unlike thecon-
ditions preceding the Republican con-
vention of last week, the day before
the assembling of the Democratic State
convention in this city finds compar-
atively few delegates and visitors on
hand and a surprising lack Of public
is o far to seek. The Republicans
have a candidate for the Presidency
in the person OF Governor Hughes,
while the Democrats OF New York not
only have no candidate of their own
out apparently are unwilling to accept
the candidacy of the leader who seems
to have the support of the most of the
other States.
Mr.. Bryan and his chief political
lieutenant in New York have been ex-
so far as the surface indications go they
have not been able to make an i'm
preston upon the opposition. With
Chairman w. J. ConnOrs of the State
committee and Charles J. Murphy,
leader of Tamany Hall, unalterably
opposed to his nomination, it seems
certain that the convention which will
assem- BILE in Carnegie Hall tomorrow
morning will follow the cue given by
the recent State committee meeting,
which declared in favor of sending the
New York delegates te the national
convention ''untettered by condition
and unpledged and uninstructed as to
candidates."
About the Democatic headquarters
at the Victoria Hotel today there is
considerable talk and speculation as
to who the four delegates-at-large will
be. Mayor Mcclellan probably could
be among the number, but it is believ-
ed that his official business will pre-
vent him from going to Denver. Those
whose names are now most prominent
ly mentioned as likely members of the
"big four" are Chairman w. J. Con-
nors, Alton B. Parker, John B. Stanch.
field and Charles F. Murphy.

GUARDING The
ATLANTIC SEABAORD,
High But Merited Estimate of a
GOldSbOrO Boy.

A writer in yesterdays Washing
ton ID. CO. Herald, on trained
fighters available tor defending the
Atlantic Seaboard in case of sud
den attack from some foreign power
while the big fleet Of American war
vessels are in Pacific waters, re-
counts quite a number of naval men OF
note who are yet on the Atlantic sea-
board. and vessels commanded by
them, and in the list he mentions q
Goldsboro boy, one of two brothers
who are in the navy, 1t. Pope Wash
ing being the other brother, and here
is what he says of the elder brother:
"A bearer Of distinguished name who
would be likely to be heard from in case
of war is Lieutenant CemmanderThos
Washington, in command OF the Dol
phin. He is the son of Col. J.. A,
Washington, of Goldsboro, N. c., and q
representative of a branch Of q family
of the immortal George which went to
that State. Lieutenant Washington Is
q young man Of most charming and
agreeable manners, as we'll rs q good
officer. His men always are devoted
to him, for he has the art of command
ing in . quiet and unobtrusive way.
1t 10 q trife remarkable, but In his
facial appearance Washington has .
striking resemblance to the Father of
his Country. With powdered hair and
queue and a continental uniform, he
would bear a facial resemblance to his
great collateral ancestor, which no one
would fail to notice. But, whereas,
George was over six FEET tall and spare
of build, Thomas is of medium height
and rather inclined to stoutness."

Chicago, April 13.-With h%eadquar-
ters opened and in running order both
in Washington and Chicago, as well as
in his home State, Governor Johnson,
of Minnesota, has entered actively upon
his campaign for the Democratic nom-
ination for the presidency. The greater
part of the work in behalf of Governor
Johnson's candidacy is to be conducted
from the headquarters in the Grand
Pacific hotel in this city. The head
quarters are in charge of Frederick
Lynch, with several assistants, and
just at present the mailing department
is being kept busy sending out thou

CnEAPER BREAD PROBABLE.

The department OF agriculture esti-
mates b average coddition of winter
wheat IN April 1 at 91.3 per cent, as
against 500 per cent. one year before,
S9.1 g cent two years previous, and
1872 per cent. as a ten-year average.
The average is especially high in the
chief surplus States. In Kansas, Texas,
Kentucky and Tennessee the condition
is put at 80 and in Oregon at 81. Mis-
souri,, Oklahoma and Nebraska are
nearly up to the leaders.
These figures OF average condition on
the 10000 900 acres seeded last fall
means a high crop wellnigh approach
ing 500 600, O0o bushels, provided pres
emit conditions are maintained to har-
vest time.
Rarely, indeed, has the April condi-
ton OF winter wheat exceeded 80. The
Misunderstanding crops OF 1901 and 1905
followed April averages almost identi.
cal with the one of the previous season.
fhe yield Of winter wheat last year was
o ,00O. 900 bushels, and . crop of $780,
600 900 bushels would inspire conf
dence and stimulate trade.
The worlds wheat crop last year was
s,1os. e22, 900 bushels.
The winter wheat outlook in ibis
country alone gives promise that the
will be overcome this year,
and that low-priced wheat will again
be within the reach of a hungry world.

The Shadow.

Being hisscd by a public meeting
of Athenians, the Greek orator
Demosthcnes quieted them by an
nouncing that he had a short story
to tell them. "A certain youth" he
said, ''hircd an ass in summer time
to 20 from here to Megera. About
noon, when the sun was very hot,
and both he that hired the ass and
the owner were desirous of sitting
in the shade of the ass, they each
thrust the other away. The owner
argued that he lent only the ass,
but not the shadow. The hirer re-
piled that, since he had hired the
ass, all that belonged to the ass was
his" Demosthenes turned as if to
go away, but the mob called him
back and begged him to proceed.
He began with this retort, GLOW
comes it to pass that you are desir-
Gus of hearing a story of the shadow
of an ass and refuse to give ear to
matters of greater moment!' The
orator then made his speech, but he
never told how the question was de-

Victoria county has tempest
in a teapot over the full rendition

moned by the commissioners to
attend court and show why their
property values should not be
raised. At the meeting the as

and to the contestants that he
was probably mistaken as to the
value of the property as turned
in by him, and a resolution was
passed that all lands should be
assessed for taxation at the same
price as rendered last year That
full rendition law seems to be
like the gun without a breech,
loaded both ways, and kills like

at least pay their full share of
