National Convention dominates Price
ton Professor on the Forty-Sixth
Ballot After Strenuous Battle
Bryan's Choice for Vice President
Turned Down-Will Support Ticket.

HOVCIHOE WOOuTOW wilson, IOf
years president of Princeton Univer-
sity, for president; Governor Thomas
R. Marshall of Indiana for vice presi-
dent-this was the ticket completed
by the Democratic national conven.
ton at Baltimore after a most siren
GUS and bitter struggle, at 1:56 a. m
Wednesday.
The nomination of Governor Mar
shall for vice president came as some
thing of surprise, for when the
nights balloting for vice presiden,
began it seemed that Bryan-Wilson
contingent in the convention had de-
fnitely settled upon Governor Joseph
E. Burke of North Dakota.
There was not much of fight, how
ever, and when two ballots disclosed
Marshall easily in the lead, Governor
Marshall was proclaimed the nominee
by reclamation.
Nominations by Acclamation.
Governor Wilson was nominated al
the afternoon session on the forty.
sixth ballot and his nomination, like
that of Governor Marshall, was
quickly made unanimous. The best
of feeling prevailed in both sessions
and both delegations seemed to be ir
a good frame of mind. Mr.. Bryan
has announced his intention of in.
Producing a resolution in effect dis
charging the national committee from
conducting the coming campaign
and allowing Governor Wilson to ap.
point his own campaign manager.
He was dissuaded from this course
and instead of making a move thai
might have stirred up strife, hi
made little speech which he termed
his "valedictory," and in a happy weir
turned over the mantle of his former
leadership as a presidential candidate
to Governor Wilson.
He pledged his faithful support t.
the presidential nominee and ended
by urging that either Governor Burk'
or Senator George Chamberlain o
Oregon be nominated for vice presi
dent.
The Nebraskan was understood par
ticularly to favor Burke as a typ,
of the modern progressive.
When after the first ballot someon
moved to make the nomination o
Marshall unanimous, Mr.. Bryan start
ed for the stage to make a statement
The motion was withdrawn before HI
could speak. When the motion wa
renewed after the second ballot, Mr.
Bryan did not protest.

gubernatorial candidacy. of former
Governor Morrison made by a men,
Der of the Steunenberg family because
of former Governor Morrison's course
in alligning himself on the side of
those connected with the dastardly
murderers of Ex-Governor Frank
Steunenberg, has caused wide COM
ment and much careful consideration
of the charges.
1t is rather a matter of doubt if the
majority of readers thoroughly appre-
ciate what the freeing of Steve Adams
meant; and consequently the full OPP
probrium attached to the conduct of
former Governor Morrison by Mr.. C..
B. Steunenberg.
AS is we'll known, Ex-Governor
Frank Steunenberg was foully assas-
sinated as he opened the gate Heading
to his home. His body was frightful-
ly mangled by the explosion of a
bomb. This was in revenge for his
manly, Straightforward action in deal
ing with the men of the Western Fed
Grafton of Miners in the north Idaho
labor troubles. Upon hearing of the
assassination of his friend, former
Governor Morrison Immediately gave
utterance to the following in public
print:
my family and the family of Frank
Steunenberg lived side by side in
Caldwell for years. The news of his
awful death came to me as terrible
shock. He was my personal friend,
and, aside from admiring him for his
estimable qualities in public life, l es-
teemed him as friend and neighbor.
| think the state should do all in its
power to bring to justice his assassin. y
Harry Orchard was arrested and
Harvey K. Brown, sheriff of Baker
county, Oregon, happened to be in
Caldwell. Sheriff Brown remained
for while and learned of the search
being made for Steve Adams, whom
the detectives had proven to be con-
nected with several of the many
crimes leading up to the assassina-
ton.
Then came the confession of Or
chard and the implication Of the men
higher up-Pettibone, Meyer and
Haywood. The confession of Or
chard needed corroborative testimony
Sheriff Brown, returning to his
home, soon located Steve Adams in
hiding on his uncle's ranch near. Ba-
ker. Adams accompanied the Canyon
county officers to Caldwell and gave
in a confession more heinous ten-fold
than that of Orchard, the corroborat-
i've testimony necessary to convict the
Federation officers.
Some time after Harvey Brown
paid for his fidelity to manhood by
being blown to Kingdom Come in the
same manner as was Frank. Steunen-
berg.
Steve Adams went to Jail OF his
own free will and accord, knowing
the least freedom meant a swift and
horrible death at the hands of the
band of cowardly assassins.
Emissaries of this infamous gang
reached him and he repudated his
confession. The state then held him
as witness.
The Western Federation employed
Clarence barrow, the notorious Chi
cago attorney now on trial for bri
berry in the Mcnamara cases, and Johr
+. Nugent of Boise. They had plen
ty of money and desired to attract tt
their cause all the weight possible

Wanted to Know the cuIprit.

The following story was told recent ly by Austin Ha.Ines to a party of friends he entertained at luncheon:
 Down in a little Florida town two negro families live in shanties about a stones throw apart. They obtain their drinking water from shallow open well located midway between the two houses. A fence which separates the two yards Is built up to the well on both sides. Every evening after her days work is done, it is the GUS tom of one of the negro mammies to pick up buckets and go to the well for water. One day the owner of the property moved the fence back about ten feet from where it originally stood. That evening when Eliza started out with her pail she fixed her eye on the fence and made straight for it. Walk ing hurriedly along the beaten path, she plunged into the shallow well with splash. Her screams brought i'm mediate assistance, and as she climb ed out and spied the fence ten feet away she indignantly exclaimed:
 Now, who done moved dat well?'

CLARK COULD NOT BE FOUND
Speaker Comes Near Blocking Wheels
 of U. s. Government.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
 Washington. = Speaker Clark suc- cessfully eluded all pursuers. He was not to be found at his office in the capital and could not be located at his home. Rumors said he was in Baltl- more at the home of Mayor Preston in conference with his political ad- visers. His lieutenants here simply said he was hidden away for the day getting some sleep. All efforts to find him were futile.
 So consistently did the speaker keep to his retirement that he even could not be found to sign the joint resolu- ton extending last years appropria- tions into the new finance year. In order that the wheels of government might not stop the house placed Rep resentative Alexander of Missouri in the chair as speaker pro tenn to sign the precious document, which later was rushed to the White House where President Taft signed it before leaving for Philadelphia.

Ancient Mexico.

We know nothing of Mexico, of course, prior to the year 1517, when 1t was discovered by Fernando Cor tez The history of the City of Mexi- CD, as preserved in the native annals goes back to the year 1925. when it was founded by the Aztecs, the mas ter race of the country at the time of the coming of the Spaniards. Of the "civilization, so-called, that existed prior to the Spanish conquest, it can be authoritatively asserted that it was simply the higher type of bar barism' and in no sense civilization ps we understand the term at the present time While considerably re moved from savagery, the social state hf the Aztecs was characterized by much that was crude and cruel and was far inferior to the social condii tlons found in contemporary Europe A very good account of the old Mexi can civilization is found in Fiske's "Discovery of America"

ONCE MORE WORLDS GRANARl
Turkish Government lnduges in Am bilious Schemes for Development
 of Mesopotamia.

In spite of it's external troubles, the Turkish government is engaged in ad- vancing the big schemes for the de velopment of Mesopotamia, which, when completed, will result in the transformation of an arid desert re- zion as extensive as the Nile valley into smiling cornfields.
 The sum involved in the huge ir- rigation works which will be neees- sary to accomplish this transformation is put at some $150, O0O,000, and the immediate concern of the Turkish au- thorjties is to place a contract for the initial stage of the schemes, which provides for irrigation works in con nection with the barrage which con trols the flood water of the River Flu pirates, at present under construc- ton.
 Some Idea of the vast importance ot these schemes may be gathered from the fact that their accomplishment will enable sufficient grain to be grown to affect the wheat markets of the whole world In the olden days the whole of the Euphrates delta was irrigated, and the luxurious growth of srain excited the wonder of Greek travellers, who visited the East. Ac- UOrding to Herodotus, the soil yielded three hundred-fold. and there is no loubt that these alluvial flats were Dne of the chief granaries of the world.
 The whole story of these regions is b romance, It is still the popular be- lief that the Garden of Eden was sit uated here. In any event, in Chaldean times the delta was one vast garden; the whole plain was studded with prosperous and populous cities, set in the midst of engirdiing areas of wheat Indeed, it was from this very region that wheat. at first found in a wild and uncultiyated state, was taken and gradually transplanted all over the world.

N5T IN POSITION TO TALK
Colored Mans Theory Might Have Been All Right, but There
 Were Exceptions.

Douglas Fairbanks, out in Chicago, went into a barber shop the other day to get a shine. He found three negro bootblacks there. AS one of them rubbed Fairbanks shoes the subject of women came up.
 "Ah tell yo'," said the negro who was working on the Officer 666" ac- tors shoes, women is a peculiar thing Yo' gotta know just how to handle huh or yo' goin' to git the worst ufit. Lots of times she'll git mad at yo' and then yo' gotta talk to huh. Talk to huh--thats the way to masrah huh. She won't stand fo' no beatin' or nothin' lak that. Talk to huh. That's the way An handle ma wife"
 Another negro working next to him, looked up. What did yo' git that black eye yo' got, Rufe?" he asked.
 Well. ma wife done it, but"
 Why didn't yo' talk to huh ?"
 How could Ah?" came from the first. "She had me by the throat wifi my wind shet off"

Too Much Repetitlon.

Tn America, says a contempo- l-ry, we need more things Be it over so homely, Smiths pond, if the original name, is better than Fairy Glen lake, or any other fanciful ap- pellation. The difficulty is. there may be a dozen Smiths ponds or Smith yllles in the same state Even a good name may be used too often. For in- stance. there are said to be ten Lin tsDln streets and avenues in the newly amalgamated city of Pittsburg. It is the confusing repetition of names, quite as much as the lack of invention shown in bestowing them, that often causes dissatisfaction with familiar names. 9

MENACE IN SETTING EVIL
Allegation Is Made That the Habit Is Responsible for 95 Per Cent of
 Consumption Cases.

"Ninety-five per cent of our con sumption" says the North Carolina state board of health, comes from careless splitting, coughing and sneez- ing" particularly on the part of the consumptive, but also from people who are apparently healthy. Spit is frequently laden with deadly disease germs, particularly that of consump- lives.
 When one coughs, spits or sneezes, great multitude of tiny drops of spitte are violently expelled from the mouth and nose. The largest of these drops can be readily seen. A large number of smaller droplets can be found If a mirror or piece of glass is held before the face when coughing or sneezing. A tremendous quantity of still smaller droplets are dis charged in the form of an invisible spray or mist, which floats about in the air for some time. Scientists have found that when a man coughs spits or sneezes in a large hall or room where the air is quiet, these tiny, invisible germ-laden droplets will float in the air for a distance of 25 to 100 feet. These tiny droplets, in the form of mist or Spray, may be breathed in by other people, or they may settle on objects with which they come into intimate contact, such as food and clothing. Viewed in this light, such conduct is at least i'm polite, Furthermore, it is dangerous to the public at large to have careless people actually coughing, sneezing and splitting germ-Iaden matter into their faces, even if It is invisible and in the form of fine mist"
