One day this week as Mr.. and Mrs |
Crosier were picking berries in a brush |
lot, not far from the roadside, where their
horse was tied, they heard an automobile
coming up the road, but knowing that
their horse was not afraid, felt that all
was safe. They, however, knew by the
sound that the machine stopped, and
going to a place where they could get a
view of the road, saw man alight and
auto was driven safely past. Much is
said and written of the selfshness and
rudeness of automobilists and it is a
pleasure to notice these exceptions, which
ire not at all uncommon.

ause best known to himself, ran away,
hrowing both men out. Mr.. French re-
eived cut more than an inch long on
lis head, and was also severely bruised. /
he other man had hip and shoulder
adly wrenched. The horse ran to the /

WALL STREET NOT CONFIDENT

Henry ClewS, who controls a big
banking house at No 11-17 Broad
street and 35 Wall street, and whose
letters to the public have long been
regarded as the conservative express
sion of Wall street interests, is not so
sure that Wall streets friend. Mr..
Taft, is going to have a walk-o over at
the November elections.
In fact. reading between the lines
1t looks as if Mr. Clews is rather in
cllned to think that the chances are
that the alliance between Wall street
and the republican party will be re-
pudiated at the polls.
This is what Mr.. Clews says in his
letter of June 81:
I'm anticipation of Mr.. Taf's nomi-
nation for the presidency. the stock
market underwent considerable and
prolonged advance. Upon announce
ment of the event prices as usual. re-
acted; early buyers having taken pro-
hts and left the market with made
qua support. With the Denver con-
Ventlon close at hand, and the proba-
ollltles of Mr.. B-yan's nomination
daily strengthening. there is more or
less shrinking in values. and the mark
ct is discounting his nomination bv a
display of weakness. much IN the same
fashion that it anticipated Mr.. Tai IS
| nomination by a show of strength
Moreover, all persons are not equal

November next. A goodly number

act upon their convictions; and while
they may be in error they are suffici-
emily strong numerically to give the
| political situation a moderate degree
of uncertainty. which may be expected
to last until the final outcome in Nov
ember next. The platform soon to be
| announced from Denver is expected to
| be more or less radical and disturbing.
| There is large element of discomfort
throughout the country aggravated by

THE VICE PRESIDENCy

The question of who will be Mr.. Bry-
ans running mate in the coming cam
paign forms the chief topic of converse
tion at Denver just now. and from pres
ent indications the selection of a cam
didate for the vice presidency VIII be
made only after a grand free for all.
There is certainly a wealth of mate
rial for the democracy to pick from.
While the other candidates have been
receiving more or less publicity of late,
II appears rather singular that prac-
tically nothing has been said of a man
who would probably be the strongest
democrat that could be named for the
place This is w. L. Douglass, 1.-The

Weather Conditions.

The weather continues fair west of
Rocky mountains with the exception
that a trace of rain accompanying
thunderstorm occurred lasr night at
Pocatello. The western high area re-
mains central over Montana and de-
preston exists over the southern Plat
eau region. Rain has fallen in portions
of the eastern slope of the Rockies,
over the Lake region, southern Texas
and in the New England states. Tenn
perarures are slightly higher this
morning in the Pacific Northwest and
slightly lower between the Rockies
and the Mississippi. The distribution
of pressure indicates a continuance of
the present weather in this vicinity to-
night and Thursday, except that it will
not be quite so warm Thursday.
