the president behind him, was nomin :
ated for governor by less than u thous-
and majority over the weakest kind of
candidate, the purpose OF whose can
didacy was a mere protest against the
administration.
Texas was another Wilson stronghold.
Texas is the home of Postmaster Gen.
eral Burleson. the presidents most
powerful patronage dispenser All the
power of the administration directed by
Mr.. Burleson at Washington and officer
ed 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 nominated Balls rival. Fergu-
son. by majority of 5000
But here's a better one william
Jennings Bryan's own state mas turned
against him. The issue on which, Bryan
was defeated was President Wilson's ap-
pointment Of Thomas d. Jones. dummy
director of the International Harvester
company. as president OF the new bank
ing and currency board. Jones was sue
cessfully opposed by United Staets Sem
ator Hitchcock. Nebraska democrat.
The Nebraska state convention was
coming On& and 1t was greatly import
ant that the Peerless Leader be in
dorsed In his own state. so orders were
issued to Charles Bryan. who always ex-
ecutes the will of his brother to prevent
the Endorsement of Senator Hitchcock
In the Jones matter at all hazards
Charles Bryan got busy But after
strenuous efforts. all he could do was
to head off an Endorsement of Hitchcock
at Lincoln. All the other counties in
the state rallied to Hitchcock's support
and in spite of Bryan Endorsed Hitch
cocks successful opposition to Mr. Will
sons dummy" director. The issue was
made clear that the Endorsement of
Hitchcock was slap In the face for
the Wilson administration, and 1t looks
ike Bryan and the administration took
The slap.
The action in Nebraska Is regarded
Of great political Importance because 1t
was the Peerless Leaders state whose
led by Bryan at Baltimore,
paved the way for Wilson'S nomination.
Nebraska has been divided in its al
egiance between Bryan and Wilson on
he one hand, and Senator Hitchcock on
he other. Hitchcock supported Champ
Clark. In view of the fight that Mr.
Clark will make on Wilson in 1916, de-
yelopments In Mr.. Bryan's state are
as highly significant.-Ex.

often as we can. This is a great city
and is growing every year in importance.
