FARMERS CHILDREN IN LEAD AT
STATE UNIVERSITY.

Statistics recently compiled by Reg
lister Newly OF the state university

every county in the state is repre-
sented in the registration while twen-
ty.two states besides Oklahoma have
students in attendance Another sig
nificant fact in this connection is that
the student body is not drawn from
the cities and towns, as is the case
in some eastern state universities BY
far the largest part OF those enrolled
come from the farm and have listed
their fathers as farmers, on the in
formation card they fill out when en-

feature one which in great measure
accounts for the record the school

HILO, July lit was decided at the
meeting of the Fourth Of July commit

there would be no Floral Parade this

long time to make up its mind and,
finally, it was with regret that the step
was taken.
The opinion of the majority of the
members present was that the best
course to take was to cut out the auto
mobile and float parade, and to confine
the attentions of those in charge to
the proper carrying out of the program
of childrens' sports and the competi.
tion between the Waialea and Hilo
fire brigades.

WASHINGTON, June 23.-Presi.
dent Taft went to church this morning
and spent the rest of the day reading

The President slept late, for he had
been up late last night reading the
convention bulletins. He had to hurry
for church and missed his usual morn

On July 3 the home circle at the
White House will be broken and the
President will take his family to Bev-

Third. Party Plans Suffer Hard
Thumps From His Own
Friends.
GOVERNOR OSBORN DROPS OUT
Progressive Senators Decide
Against Scheme Of Their
Ex-Leader.

WASHINGTON, July 4.-Despite
the fact that one blow after another
has fallen upon him during the last
few days, Theodore Roosevelt at his
home in Oyster Bay last night gave out
a statement in which he denied that
he has any idea of relinquishing his
plans for a convention of the Progress
sive party in Chicago the first of next
month.
He conferred with several of tho
leaders of the Progressives and dis
cussed the probable effect of the
Democratic nominations of Wilson and
Marshall, both of whom are recognized
Progressives. To the report that the
Progressive party suffered severe set
back through the nomination of Mr..
Wilson, Mr.. Roosevelt replied by as
sorting that "nothing has occurred to
make me change my mind"
News OF the desertion of Governor
Chase Osborn of Michigan, one of the
seven who called upon Roosevelt to
run for the nomination of the Repub-
lican party, reached him, as did tidings
of other friends falling away. He said
that he could see no change in the
general sentiment of the country
which forced me forward in the first
place and still demands n new deal and
a new party to put it into effect"
In support of this statement he
pointed to the action of South Dakota
and that of Indiana, where the new
Progressive party was organized in
| indianapolis yesterday.
The action of number of Progress
sive senators in Washington, who after
n lengthy conference yesterday after
noon, decided that third party els
unnecessary and repugnant" to them,
called forth no comment from the
Colonel, 81 am still fighting" was
all he vouchshfed.
Doctor Wiley, Roosevelt man and
one of the Colonel's personal friends
and admirers, yesterday deserted to
the Democrats and announced that he
intends to support Wilson.
Another Blow.
ST. PAUL, Minnesota, July 3.-At-
torney General Smith of Minnesota to-
day gave an opinion that Colonel
Roosevelt's Progressive party has no
legal standing, and cannot participate
in the fall primaries.

. PEERLESS LEADER"
CHANGES TUNE

BALTIMORE, Maryland, July a.
William Jennie Bryan, commenting
today on the nomination of Wilson and
the results of the convention, says that
Champ Clark is universally beloved,
and that his defeat is no reflection
ON his character or record, but " due
to the failure of his managers to catch
the spirit of the convention"
He believes, he declares, that Wilson
will poll more Republican votes than
any other possible Democratic eandi
date.
