BOOM is LAUNCHED FOR
SENATOR 9GQRNlN FOR
SECOND PLACE ON TICKET
New York Statesman Has Taken
Distinct Stand for Progress
sive Measures
MANY OTHERS IN FIELD
If Bryan is Nominated He
Would Like to Have Wilson
for Running Mate
MANY OTHERS IN FIELD

BALTIMORE, Nd, June 25.-There
was much quiet consideration, by the
Democratic leaders here today, Of
available timber for the vice-presi-
dency While admitting that geogra-
phtcai considerations would control,
and that final selection would not be
possible until after the head of the
ticket had been decided upon, the
claims of the various candidates were
discussed by the men who will have
available candidate.
II Bryan should be nominated for
president, the general impression was
that he would prevail on Gov. Wilson,
of New Jersey. to be his running
mate, though Wilson has told his
friends that under no circumstances
would he accept second place.
There was we'll defined boom In
certain circles for Senator O'Gorman,
OF New York He has taken a dis
tinct stand for progressive measures
ever since he entered the senate and
1t was admitted his popularity in New
York would benefit any presidential
candidate II he could be persuaded to
accept the second place.
Gov. Marshall, of Indiana, although
presidential candidate, had many
warm supporters as had Gov. Foss, Of
Massachusetts, and Gov. Baldwin OF
Connecticut
Congressman William Sulzer, OF
New York. had a personally conduct
ed boom which he declared was pro-
missing. He said that he had the sup
port of dozen state delegations and
that II geographical conditions were
right he believed he would be the
man.
Gov Dix, OF New York, was also
much in the limelight. He has been
quietly mixing with the delegates and
has made a good impression oS many
OF them especially those from the
western states.
Mayor Preston, OF Baltimore, has
established headquarters and his
boomers have been declaring that 1t
would greatly aid the party II he were
taken, because OF his position below
the Mason and Dixon line. In the
same position for the same reason
were Clark Howell, OF Georgia. and
former Gov. Montague, OF Virginia.
Gov. Burke, OF North Dakota, had
many friends among the western pro-
gressives and the friends OF former
Congressman Francis Burton Har-
rison were also sounding his praises.

LONDON NEWSPAPER
PRAISES ROOSEVELT

LONDON, June 25.-The Pail Mall
Gazette today praised Roosevelt's ac-
ton in launching a new party in the
United States, saying:
There is every reason TO believe
that the future will justify the action
of Roosevelt and his friends. The
division OF American politics into the
Republican and Democratic parties is
doomed because it has developed a
system which Is cynical, perfunctory
and largely corrupt Regardless of
Immediate results, Roosevelt's revolt
will figure in history as the inaugura-
ton of great and permanent
change"

BALTIMORE, Md, June 25.--At

at Bryan headquarters that Senator

agreed upon as the progressive candi-

The arrangements for the admis-
sion OF the delegates and the spec
fators to the convention hall were the
worst in the history of any previous
national convention. AS the result
there was indescribable confusion
about the many entrances to the ram
bling structure. The force OF door
tenders were green on the job and the
small army OF police on duty spent a
good part OF their time seeking shelter
from a penetrating rain that was fall
Ing when the doors were thrown open

Directly behind the speakers plat
form was an oil painting OF Thomas

IN EVERYTHING GIVE THANKS
knowledge Of Gods Love and Power
10 the Supreme Cause for
Thanksgiving.

Abundant harvests, national pros
perity, peace and security under a
government of our own choice-these
are certainly grounds for thanksgiv-
ing In which every citizen can and
should take part. But 1t is quite
possible-in fact 1t is a common mis-
take-to accentuate these and other
outward blessings in such way as
to make 1t appear as If, without them,
we would as a nation have little or
no ground for thanksgiving; whereas
the strongest reason for universal
thanksgiving wOuiu sSiillll rnain If
none of these were present.
The knowledge that God loves the
world, that he reigns supreme and
controls all forces, and is overruling
all events to the ultimate overthrow
of everything that is evil and estab-
lishment of absolute righteousness
that is the supreme cause for thanks
giving in as far as the things of this
world are concerned.
But national thanksgiving can new
or be anything more than hollow
sham unless the hearts Of the wor-
shippers are warmed by personal
gratitude to God for his personal
love and care and protection, and for
the precious and exceeding great
promises which he has given US. No
heart can be truly grateful to GOD
that has not learned to trust God and
to see his hand and his love in all
the experiences of life.

ROYALTY WELCOMES THE
AMERICAN SETTLER
HIS ROYAL HIeHNEss, THE DUKE
OF coNNAUoHT, WELCOMES
AMERICANS TO CANADA.


1t was a happy speech, that on that
beautiful October day, the Duke Of
Connaught, Governor General of Can
ada, made at Macleod, Alberta. It
was an opportune speech, heartful
and resonant with good fellowship.
And, as it was specially intended for
American ears, the audience, COM
prised largely of so many American
settlers in Canada, the time and place
could not have been better chosen.
1t was in reply 70 an address of well
come rendered to him at the pretty
city of Macleod, with the foothills of
the Rockies as a setting, and the
great wheat fields between, and in
fact all around the place as the fore
ground, that His Highness, true to the
best interests of the country and to
those of the Americans who choose
to make Canada their home, said in
part:
Il am well aware that among those
whom am now addressing, there are
very great proportion who were not
born under the British flag. Most Of
these will have realized by now that
residence under that flag implies no
disabilities. All we ask is that the
laws of Canada should be obeyed.
with this provision every one is
free to come and go, to marry, to live
and to die as seems best to him, and
as it pleases Providence.
1--WE bring no pressure to bear on
anyone to adopt the Canadian nation
ality, for we do not value citizenship
which is obtained under compulsion.
Our American cousins are welcome
from over the border. Thrice we well
come our Canadian and British broth
ers, who return to the Union Jack, aft
er living under the Stars and Stripes.
History is repeating itself. For
many years hundreds of young Brit
ishers have sought fortune in the
western States. Time has brought
about a change, and the tide has set
in the other direction, bringing across
the frontier numbers of our neighbors
to whom we are glad to return hos
pitalities
Zone Of the chief dispensers of such
hospitality in proportion to its popu'
lation has, as we have said, changed
its character from an important cat
tie town to a thriving wheat producing
area.
What it has lost from the pictur
esque point of view, it has gained in
the material side, and / wish, in con
clusion, to express the hope that the
prosperity which has evinced itseli
here for the past ten years, may con
tinue undated in the future"
There is no reason why at hun
dred places on this educative, instruct
i've and interesting trip Of His Roya
Highness he might not have express
ed himself in the same terms, and or
each occasion, addressed large gather
ings of Americans who are now set
tied on the prairies of Western Cana
