Bryan Pleaded for the Ticket

Wilkesbarre, Pa. May Is. In
a 70-minute address at political
rally at the armory in this city
tonight William Jennings Bryan,
secretary of state, the principal
speaker, discussed the Mexican
situation, the Paris measure, the
currency bill and the administra-
tons peace policy before an aud
fence of 1000, with 500 more
clamoring at the door. The
meeting was called in the inter
ests of the state Progressive
Democratic ticket. A. Mitchell
Palmer for United States Sena-
tor and Vance Mccormick for
Governor. Bryan pleaded for
the support of the ticket, declar=
ing that it would mean the en-
dorsement of the national admin
istration's policy.
He justified his presence at a
political meeting by stating that
it was for the cause of progress
sive democracy, a cause that has
given to the nation many long
sought-for reforms. He declar-
ed that while he liked the candi-
dates personally, were they his
enemies he would be constrained
to come and help out for the sake
of the cause alone,
The Mexican question was
legacy from the Taft administra-
tion," said the secretary, "yet
the President has put more
thought upon it than any other
question he has had to deal
with. 1t is the question that has
weighed more on his heart than
any other. He is trying to solve
it so as to maintain the nations
honor and do it through peaceful
means. His course doesn't give
as much occasion for big head
lines or to allow others to boast
as they might of their willing
ness to have someone else killed,
Yet | think in dealing with this
problem, he is expressing the
sentiment of the American peo-
pie back of him."

Tornado Strikes the Northwest

Milwaukee, Wis, May IL. -
The tornado which worked havoc
in Central Iowa swept over
Southern Wisconsin cutting a
path from one to four miles wide
in the neighborhood Of Southern
Dane county, while the accom-
panying electric storm fired many
of farm buildings and hail ruined
crops causing a money loss of
over $1,000,000, 10 deaths and
injuring scores.
Southern Dane and Northern
Rock counties were the center of
the cyclonic disturbances, but
every county in the southern
belt of the entire state reports
damage from lightning or wind.
On Lake Michigan shore a IL
dal wave swept up the rivers,
causing losses to marine interests.
At Racine the wave was four
feet high; in Milwaukee about
three.
The financial losses are confin-
ed chiefly to farmhouses. In
Dane county alone so barns were
blown down with an average loss
of $1,000.
In the neighborhood of Slough
ton many tobacco warehouses
