be Endorsed in his own state, so
orders were issued to Charles
Bryan, who always executes the
will of his brother to prevent
the endorsement of Senator
Hitchcock in the Jones matter
at all hazards.
Charley Bryan got busy. But
after strenuous efforts, all he
could do was to head off al en-
dorsement Of Hitchcock at Lin
coin. All the other counties in
the state rallied to Hitchcock's
support aud in spite of Bryan
endorsed Hitchcock's successful
opposition to Mr.. Wilson's
dummy" director. The issue
was made clear that the endorse
ment of Hitchcock was a slap
right in the face for the Wilson
administration, and it looks like
Bryan and the administration
took the slap.
The action in Nebraska is re-
garded Of great political import
ance because il was the Peerless
Leaders state whose detection
led by Bryan at Baltimore,
paved the way for Wilson'S
nomination. Nebraska ha. been
divided in its allegiance between
Bryan aud Wilson on the one
hand, and Senator Hitchcock on
the other. Hitchcock supported
Champ CLARK. In view of the
fight that Mr.. Clark will make
on Wilson in 1916, developments
in Bryau's state are regarded as
highly significant.

{ SPECIAL To THE ADvocArK }

I Washington, Sept. 4.-For the
first year of President Wilson'S
administration his wish and word
were the rule and law of his
party. Things are not going that
way now. Congressman Ham
mOnd, a Democrat with the pres
! tige of three successful elections
i'll Republican district in Min
nesota and with all the patronage
of the President behind him, was
nominated for Governor by less
than a thousand majority over
the weakest kind of a candidate,
the purpose of whose candidacy
was d mere protest against the
administration.
TEXAS AGAINST WILSON.
Texas was another Wilson
stronghold. Texas is the home
Of Postmaster General BurlesOn,
the Presidents most powerful
patronage dispenser, All the
power of the administration di-
rected by Mr., Burleson at Wash
ington and differed on Texas soil
by Chairman Henry to whom
Mr.. Wilson himself ascribed
credit for the great part of his
success at Baltimore, were used
to nominate Ball, of Houston, as
Governor. The Texans nomi-
mated Balls rival, Ferguson, by
majority of $4,000.

Greece, Scotland, aud New Eng.

Greece produced Homer, Socrates

Sir William Hamilton; New

had education. Greece was noted
for her teachers more than five
hundred years before Christ.
Scotland has been noted for her
universities since the fourteenth
century. New England began in
her earliest history to found col
ieges, that sound learning should
not perish from among them.
There are indications that the
people of the Mountains are be-

of education. The average at

done their great work in the |
world; that when their religion
began to decay their glory waned |
and grew dim. Consequently, !
wise men have always laid en-
phasis upon the religious element
in education. Scotland's teachers
were devout men, and her schools
turned out such preachers as
Chalmers and John Knox. The

these are found in the mountain

they have courage, energy, and

of Wooster University, after say
ing that the total influence of a
school should be in the direction
of personal loyalty to Jesus
Christ, gave the following as
the important question to be

these, it indicates a belief that
the education of his child is
