clean to the eye and yet may carry
numberless germs which will hasten
the souring of the milk, cause bad

as loyal to the nominee of this con-
yention as any man. He has not reach
ed this conclusion in pique, but for the
reason that he would prefer to remain
representative in congress. Champ
Clark occupies the same position that
every man in the Missouri delegation
does-he is for Woodrow Wilson, first,
last and all the time"
The storm of cheers, in which the
men who were responsible for Will
sons nomination joined as heartily as
the friends of the speaker, was a
plain indication of the good feeling
that was replacing the soreness and
bitterness.

Burke, of North Carolina.

Girl Driven From Home as witch.

Great has been the excitement in
the little Indian village of ST. Regis,
near Ogdensburg. N Y, where the
people have been living in dread of
Lola Razen. a native girl of fifteen.
who is believed to possess an evil eye.
The Indians declare that Lola is
black witch, and that wherever she
appears children get sick, dogs go
mad, animals die and peoples lives
are made miserable Medicine men
have been unable to drive out the evil
spirit.
The squaws told their children to
avoid the witch girl. and warnings
were given out not to let her shadow
fall on any member of the tribe, nor
on their live stock
The chiefs finally decided that the
girl must leave the tribe at once and
she has gone to Luzere Mountain,
where she has an uncle
Lola is described as bright and
pretty girl. who cherishes the ambi-
ton of becoming a teacher of her
tribe. It is believed that few clever
tricks performed by her at a school
entertainment aroused telling against
her which ended in her being Danish

THE NOMINATION.

The nomination of Woodrow Wilson
at Baltimore on Tuesday last was a
victory of the people over the inter
ests that for so long have ruled the
country through nominating conven-
tions and legislative bodies, and that
is the reason for the widespread re-
joicing over his selection.
To the New Jersey delegation at
Baltimore much of the credit of the
victory is due Every member was
on duty night and day during the
whole progress of the convention, and
by treless, persistent activity and en-
thusiasm won the admiration of other
States. In this the Jerseymen were
ably assisted by the delegations from
Pennsylvania, Texas, Delaware and
thousands of individuals who thronged
Baltimore and pushed the cause of the
people.
Victory is their reward.

NO THIRD TERM MENACE, NOW.

tFrom the New York World.)
With Woodrow Wilson as the Demo-
cratic candidate for President it makes
no difference what Mr.. Roosevelt does.
1t makes no difference how many
third parties he organizes. Progress
sive Democrats and progressive Re
publicans now have a candidate of
their own. The contest between Mr..
Roosevelt and Mr.. Taft is now CON
test for the control ofthe Republican
organization, and nothing more. The
menace of a third term no longer
hangs over the country. The menace
of personal government no longer
threatens American institutions. The
United States is not to be Mexicanized.

the delegates and galleries. There was
no band to play, but that didn't mat
ter, so long as the crowds were pos
sessed of lung power.
Governor Stone added that the Mis-
souri, delegates, however, would stick
to the speaker to the end. Then Mayor
Fitzgerald, of Boston, took the plat
form and withdrew the name of Gov
ernor Foss, of Massachusetts.
Underwood Spurns Vice Presidency.
A dramatic incident occurred while
Bankhead was speaking in behalf of
Underwood. He said that Underwood
had entered the contest hoping to be
the nominee. But his chief desire was
to eradicate every vestige of sectional
feeling That had now been demon
strated by the liberal support given
the Alabama candidate. He would not
be party to the defeat of any candi-
date.
"But / think the time has come to
recognize that he canont be nominated
in this convention, nor can he be used
to defeat any other candidate" Bank
head proceeded.
.'Vice PRESIDENT" queried a delegate
from the floor.
NO" shouted back Benkhead. "He
will not turn from the important du-
ties he is performing to take such an
office as vice president"
Representative Fitzgerald, of New
York, called forth a frenzy of cheers
as he went to the speakers stand and
moved that the roll call be disposed
with and the nomination of Wilson be
made by acclamation.
Flags were waved and standards
ripped from the floor Delegates
mounted chairs and it was several
minutes before the chair could obtain
order
Senator Reed, of Missouri, inter
posed an objection to the form of
unanimous consent to make the Will
son nomination by acclamation. His
objection was sustained and the forty
sixth roll call was ordered.
When tie roll call was completed,
Chairman James shouted Wilson, $50
votes" Before the words had been
heard, Senator Stone, who was at the
elbow of Big Ollie, said in a sing song
voice, ssMr. Chairman, move to make
the nomination of Woodrow Wilson
unanimous"
There was one wild hysterical cheer.
1t had strength for a second or SO
and died away. There was rush for
the entrances and practically no de-
sire to stay and hurrah for the can
didates
The final vote was: Wilson, $50;
Clark, "a; Harmon. II; two absent.
The nomination of candidate for
vice president at the night session
was delayed until Champ Clark could
be consulted.
Senator Kern, of Indiana, presented
the platform, and after it was read it
was quickly adopted.
H. H. Dean, of Georgia, placed in
nomination for vice president Champ
Clark. and paid fine tribute to the
speaker.
Ex-Governor Alexander M. Dockery,
Of Missouri. then went to the platform.
He said: The Hon. Champ Clark has
decided he cannot accept the nomina-
ton for vice president. But want to
| say to you that Champ Clark will be
