The Democratic Nomination.

By the nomination Of Gov. Woodrow
Wilson, the Democratic party has plac-
ed at the head of its ticket its most
promising leader and it's strongest
candidate.
Governor Wilson represents intelli-
gent progressivism with his party, a
progressivism which found successful
expression at Baltimore, though il
failed at Chicago. He is a man of
high personal character, of disting-
uished intellectual attainments, and
brief but brilliant political record. He
is, moreover, in full sympathy with
the nationwide movement to overthrow
the alliance between professional poll
tics and organized money, which is the
most important factor in American
public life today. Fought bitterly by
plutocrats. reactionaries, and bosses,
and made more recently. the victim of
campaign of misrepresentation and
journalistic demagogy. he has grown
steadily in public favor and confidence.
The Democratic party is to be con-
graduated upon the choice of Governor
Wilson. 1t also owes debt of thanks
to Mr.. Bryan, whose successful fight
in the convention against reactionary
plutocracy will go down to posterity as
one of the most dramatic exhibitions
of the moral influence of great lead
er of the people our political history
has shown. Chicago Tribune (Repub-
lican.

Governor Osborne Against Third
Party.

Lansing, Mich, July 8. Gov. Chas.
S. Osborne Of Michigan in statement
issued late yesterday expresses the
hope that "aIl good republicans will
refuse to join the malcontents" in the
formation of a new party and says that
those who are not satisfied with Mr..
Taft as 4 presidential candidate can
get what they desire by voting for
Woodrow Wilson. The governors
statement follows:
II am not inconsistent in the posit-
ion l have taken, that republicans
need not bolt the party snd will not
be considered as having bolted if they
vote for Woodrow Wilson. Many of
the most prominent and influential
democrats in the country did not vote
for or support Mr.. Bryan. They re-
main democrats nevertheless and are
oil supporting Woodrow Wilson now.
l do not think new party erected up
on the passions of any number of men
can live. When those who are right
eously angry because of the action at
Chicago come to their senses they will
discover they, are angry at several men
in the republican party and not the old
party itself. ! wish to reassert and
emphasize that the issue is as clear as
. deep toned bell. One-half the work
necessary to create a new party direct
ed to purify the republican party will
produce tenfold better results. hope
all good republicans will refuse to join
the malcontents in new party. l do
not mean by this that temporary meas
ures should not be taken to present the
name of Theodore Roosevelt and to
give the people an opportunity to vote
for him, but whatever steps are taken
to do this hope will be clearly under
stood that they are temporary.
Personally, am still of the opin-
ion that those who are not satisfied
with Mr.. Taft can get exactly what
they desire by voting for Woodrow
Wilson,

Weather Crop Bulletin.

Des Moines, Iowa, July 2, 1912
The weather during the past days
was favorable for farming operations
and in most sections for the growth Of
crops. The average temperature was
about S degrees above the normal;
the rainfall was below the average.
The warm dry weather was very bepe-
fetal for haying and harvesting. Most
of the rye and winter wheat, and many
early oats are in shock in the southern
counties. All small grains give prom
Use of good to extra good yields but
late oats need rain to fill to the best
advantage. Considerable rust is re-
ported, but prouably not more than
Corn continns to make rapid growth.
Much of the timothy, especially in the
southern counties, will be saved for
seed.
The following is summary of re-
ports from crop correspondents show
ing the estimated condition of staple
crops, July l. 1912, as compared with
the average condition on that date in
past years: Corn, 80 per cent; oats.

80; barley, 80; rye, SO; fax, Sc; pota-
toes, SO; hay. SO; pastures, IS per cent.

Bryan at Baltimore.

Never in any public body were public
interests better served-more dovetedly,
more acutely, more broadly, more dis
interestedly. more courageously, more
successfuly-than by William ]. Bryan
in his leadership at Baltimore against
the natural affiliation of bipartisan
crooks and their Democratic dupes,
who, but for him, would have delivered
the Democratic party over to the finan-
cial proprietors of the Republican par
ty. We say successfully as well as
courageously, sdisenterestedly, broadly,
acutely and with devotion to principle,
because the bipartisan bargain of the
political crooks with the financial In
terests, which was endorsed at Chicago,
has been smashed at Baltimore under
Bryan's brave leadership,-The Public.

Wilson and the People or Taft and
Wall Street.


Woodrow Wilson of New Jersey,
nominated for president by the people
in defiance of Wall street, on a plat
form written by William Jennings
Bryan, the peoples great leader.
William Howard Tart, nominated tor
president by Wall street in defiance of
the tpeople ion q platform written by
the creatures of privilege.
These are the alternatives1 between
which the voters of this nation will be
called upon to choose :when they 60 to
the polls next November. Out of the
strife and turmoil of the conventions
at Chicago and Baltimore have been
born the candidates and the issue. Wall
streets victory at Chicago was as
clean cut as was the peoples victory
at Baltimore.
At Chicago. the people, represented
by the progressives, were read out of
the republican party.
AT Baltimore, Wall street, repre-
scented by Ryan, Belmont and Murphy,
was read out of the democratic party.
At Chicago, the Wall street candi-
date was nominated and the Wall
street platform adopted, not only with
out the assistance but against the pro-
test and in defiance of every progress
sive delegate and influence.
At Baltimore, the peoples candi-
date was nominated and the peoples
platform adopted. not only without the
assistance, but against the protest and
in defiauce of every Wall street dele
gate and influence.
At Chicago, Taft barred his chest and
invited Wall street to brand him with
the dollar mark.
At Baltimore, Wilson and Bryan
wrssted the branding iron from Wall
street and hurled it into the gutter.
The words republican" and tdemo-
crat" mean less today than ever be-
fore in the history of either party. Be-
fore the election In November they
ought to mean nothing. Every voter
in this country who believes in 4 gov
eminent of the people, by the people.
and for the people, irrespective of his
past political affiliations, ought to vote
for Woodrow Wilson.
Every voter in this country who be-
lieves in government Of privilege, by
Wall street, for dollars, irrespective of
his past affiliations ought to vote for
Taft.
The issue is as clean cut as q cameo; |
the result, in our opinion, as certain as
that the election will be held. -Des

Roughly speaking, it consists of 96la
per cent of fresh water plus 80 per
cent of mineral salts. Three fVnrths
of these salts are chloride of sodium.
or common table salt. ana the next
largest constituent is chloride of mag
nesium. After these come sllrhate
of magnesium. suiphate of lime. sui
plate of potash. bromide of nlagne-
SUM and carbonate of lime. In addi-
ton to these substances sea water
contains minute quantities of quite a
variety of elements, including iodine.
phosphorus and arsenic, 1t also con-
tains some silver. copper, zinc, nickel,
cobalt. iron and gold. There is said
to be- = cents worth of gold in every
