HOUSE FLY PEOPLES FOE
Summer Pest Regarded as Most Ac-
tive Agent in Spreading of
Diseases. -.
KILL FLIES, PROTECT CHILDREN

In the biggest war against the
house fly ever waged in the north
west, thousands of recruits are being
enlisted by State Entimologist e. L.
Washburn, in cooperation with the
state board of health.
A graphically illustrated poster
has been received by Mrs. C. R. San
born, president of the Woman's club,
and through the state is playing an
important part in the campaign.
It shows the fly in all stages from
the cradle to the grave egg to
the trap, and depicts all the depreda-
lions fly is liable to commit in his
harmful disease-spreading existence,
with big bills of damages charged to
the fly nuisance, and outline of the
scientific campaign against the nui-
sance.
"Kill the typhoid fly, and protect
your children and family from dis
ease" is the bold headline over direc-
lions for fighting flies, both to indi-
viduals and districts or neighbor-
hoods.
Cooperation is the keynote Of the
campaign and the state officials urge
that 1t be carried SO far as to boycott
all stores carrying edibles which al
low flies within their doors.
Flies kill more people than wild
beasts and poisonous snakes. Many
beasts and snakes never get an op-
portunfty to kill a human being. Any
one OF the millions of flies found in
American cities has chance, IL he

DdilluOfe, June Z5.-Wllllam j,
Bryan may be named by the Progress
sives to make the fight against Judge
Alton B. Parker of New York for the
Temporary Craftsmanship of the DEM
ocratic national convention.
That was the plan considered by
the Bryan and Wilson forces today,
shortly before the national commit
tee met to name the temporary chair
man and settle the contests.
Seeking to prevent the election of
Judge Parker, supporters of Governor
Wilson today instructed Robert S.
Hudspeth, national committeeman
from New Jersey, to vote for Sena-
tor-elect Ollie James of Kentucky, an
avowed Champ Clark man.
I'VE cast our support with Ollie
James, said Mr.. Hudspeth today,
"even though he is a Clark man. We
do this that the cause of the people
and Progressive Democracy shall not
fail, or if it fail, the responsibility
will be upon others, and not upon
u.s."
In statement Mr.. Hudspeth urged
all Progressives to join in fighting
Judge Parker's election.
Mr.. Bryan said to Jerry Sullivan
of Iowa, who called on him, to talk
over the temporary Craftsmanship sit
uation:
If no one else can be found to
make the fight l will be the candi-
date for temporary chairman my
SELF"
Mr.. Bryan said after Mr.. Sullivan
had left:
'There will be Progressive can
didate for temporary chairman
against Mr.. Parker If the Progress
sives cannot agree upon a candidate
for temporary chairman l will be a
candidate for temporary chairman
myself unless l can find a man who
will be satisfactory to u.s."
Mr.. Bryan said he would not take
up the fight on the temporary chair
manship in the national committee,
and that it would be fought out in
the convention.
II will be on hand when the time
comes to make the fight in the COM
mittee," added Mr.. Bryan.
Asked if he had found a man for
temporary chairman, Mr.. Bryan said
he had not.
One of Mr.. Bryan's closest friends
said the issue was too we'll defined for
either side to compromise and that
Mr.. Bryan would make the fight OF
his life on the convention floor.
Mr.. Bryan and those national COM
mitteemen who are with him in the
contest against Judge Parker agreed
that Mr.. Bryan should take no part
in the proceedings of the national
committee. The Nebraska leader re-
manned in his rooms all day confer.
ring with visiting delegation leaders
After making known his intentions
to run as temporary chairman in case
no other Progressive was determined
upon, Mr.. Bryan ordered a poll taken
of all arriving state delegations to as.
certain how they stood upon the is.

tional committee, w. j. Bryan took

and cheering Mr.. Bryan.
Mr.. Bryan finally secures sufficient
quiet to be heard and dominates

Parker before the convention.

OGorman of New York, Clayton Of

Mr.. Bryan is again talking to the
convention.
Mr.. Bryan said he went to Mr.
O'Gorman, Mr.. James and Kearn be-
fore finding one ready to make thu
fight and says if necessary he will
make the fight, and says if necessary
he is willing to accept the Leadership
himself.

a dispatch from Crown Prince Con.

While the allied armies of Bulga-
