William Jennings Says Cues
ton Is Purely Local in
Character.
HE EXPLAINS HIS STAND.
STATE LAWS. HE SAYS, OUGHT
TO BE MADE TO FIT THE CON-
DlTIONS AS THEY EXIST-IS A
TEETOTALLER.

Lincoln, Neb, June13.-Referring
last night to dispatch from Milwau-
kee concerning his attitude on the
question of prohibition Mr. Bryan
said
Il have received many letters from
prOhibitiOnists and many from Oppon-
ents of prohibition, and l have answer
ed them all in the same way | have
told them that ! did not regard the
question as national question. While
it is an issue in a number of states
do not expect it to be made an issue
by either the republican or demOcra-
tic national conventions. have made
1t rule not to discuss questions out
side the platform because the candi-
date has no right to inject issues
which his platform excludes.
In answer to questions about my
record on the subject | have stated
that so far as my personal habits go
| am teetotaller. never having us
ed LIQUOR as d beverage, but in 1890
voted against the state prohibition
amendment because | thought the IL
cense system We had with local option
was better suited to the conditions
we had to meet in our state
when an attempt has been made
to draw conclusions from this as to
what ought to be done in other states
have called attention to the fact that
state laws ought to be made to meet
the conditions existing in the state
and that which ! did in Nebraska
could not be d guide in states where
conditions were different"

Republican Campaign May Be
Managed From Chicago
And New York.
PLAN IS IN FAVOR.
FIRST ORIGINATED BY MARK
HANNA AND SINCE HAS PROVED
MOST ATISFACTORY-c COMMIT
TEE TO DECIDE.

ChicaeO, H.. June 13.-The national
campaign will be managed from twc
headquarters. one in Chicago and the
other in New York.
Just which office will be the main
one has not developed as yet in the de
alterations of the party chiefs. The
new national committee will make that
the subject of deliberation when it or
ganizes Immediately after the Conven
ton is finished.
In the establishing of two headquar
ters the chieftains will be following out
the experience of four and eight years
ago. Mark Hanna was the originator
Of the plan and it worked well. He be
lieved it impossible to keep in touch
with all sections Of the country from
one city, and no one doubts the wis
dom of the arrangement now
Four years ago the main headquar
tiers were in New York and it is posi-
bic that this will be the case this year
Secretary Taft is not expected to have
much, if any, trouble with the fan
West. The East will be spirited
battle-ground, however, and so will the
middle West. so that Chicago and
New York will become the natural Ger
tiers of activity.
Frank II. Hitchcock. manager OF
the Taft forces. is in favor of the dou
bic headquarters and the probability
now is that he will be in charge of the
main office
The question of long distance tele
phone service enters into the calcula
tiOns very materially" says Hitchcock
In fact it is one Of the biggest things
to consider. A man can reach al
over the East with the telephone anC
also get good service between Chicago
and New York, but when it comes tc
telephOning from New York to points
in the far West, that is quite another
matter.
Il think there will be two headquar
ters, but of course. that is not definite
ly settled yet. for the national com
mittee has had no opportunity to con
slider it. The old plan worked out well
however, and l do not believe it will
be abandoned"

AWARD CONTRACTS
POOR FARM SUPPLIES
Unusual Close Bidding Marked
Dealers Competition.

Unusual close bidding for the privi
leee of furnishing the supplies for the
county poor asylum was evident. when
the county commissioners reviewed
the bids this afternoon. Only 81 cents
separated two concerns bidding for
the supply of groceries and only so
cents difference appeared between the
two lowest bids for clothing. John
NJ. Eggemeyer & Company of this
city lost the contract for groceries
through a mistake made on the bid
for matches. The specifications had
not been adhered to through ~ over
sight. F. NJ. Jones OF Milton was
awarded the grocery contract for
S2l2.01. ROsenblOOm. Buntin & Co,
received the contract for furnishing
clothing with a bid Of 1920. The
HOOSier Store received the contract

Hanigan was awarded the contract
for supplying wood st $3.50 and F. H.

Bitter JerFoId.

Among the sayings attributed to Doug
las Jerrold is a very bitter one he ap-
piled TO Mark Lemon. then editor OF
Punch. Lemon was deeply attached to
Dickens and showed it in a very open
fashion, which perhaps aroused the
great satirist's jealousy. At all events,
as Jerrold was walking out one day
with Lemon and another friend. and
Dickens with several more behind
them, Lemon suddenly dropped away
and turned back. What has become
of Punch asked Jerrold's companion
Did you hear Dickens whistler" was
the cynical reply. Dickens pays the
dog tax for Lemon"

DREAMLAND.

If a drunken man can roll down the
west bank of the Whitewater river at
the south side of the Main street
bridge and escape uninjured what
would happen if a sober man attempt
ed the same feat?
Tom Juergens is the man who per

won for Juergens his liberty in police

He was not long in the going. One

Convention Incidents Attract
More Than Ordinary In

TAFT is. THE FAVORITE.

General interest is being taken by
residents of this city in the outcome
of the republican national convention
which will he held next week at Chi
cago The events leading up to the
convention are being watched with
the keenest interest and general sat
isfactiOn has been expressed over the
overwhelming victory already won
by Secretary Taft. The big war sec

Wayne county and they have never
taken the candidacy of Charles War

STRENUOUS EFFORTS, HOWEV-

The surviving teams in the Indiana
Ohio league, are making gallant eff
forts TO keep aflOat in the stormy base

organization will soon go down with
all hands abroad. The salaries Of ev-

reduced and this is causing consider

chants nave 10 grin and bear the re-

burg and the enterprising boosters of
this city could well afford to take a
lesson from the Van Vert hustlers.
Richmond fans hope that the |. O.
league will be able 70 survive the
season, which is proving such rough
and stony one TO minor leagues all
over the country. Next season it will
be possible, the times being better, to
organize a six or eight club league
1t Is needless to say that the local
bugs confidently expect Richmond to
be represented in such an organiza-

President Gamble still feels conf
dent that Greenville. O., and Anderson
will join hands with the league and
that club will be placed in Kokomo

Liberty. EGuEIity. Fraternity.

The French philosopher VI. lie Bon.
commenting on the motto OF the revo-
luton, Liberty, Equality and Frater-
nifty" declared that the real difference
between the French and the British lay
in the fact that the French were enam-
ored Of equality and cared little for
liberty. while the British insisted on
liberty and never gave 4 thought L
equality. And when some one quoted
this 10 RudEard Kipling he instantly
added his own comment 70 the effect
that what the American really pre-
ferred was fraternity. He is a good
fellow himself, and he expects you tc
be one"

He comes from HoopestOn and is will

The principal argument. used to
clinch the justification for the Clarke
boom, was that he is the only repubIi-

vote with John Mitchell if Mitchell
should be made Bryan's ticket fellow.
Commissioner Clarke is now in Wash

his boom coming for several months.

CARNATIONS of railroad union men and
other organized workers indorsed him
for the place. II was pointed out that
the record of Commissioner Clarke is
such that the republican party need
have no shame of it from the ranks of
the millionaire voters or the republi-
cans in the fields of organized labor.
He was for thirty years a loyal and
honOred member of the brotherhood of
railway trainmen and that organiza-
