shrieking up and down the land for

Colonel Bryan spoke with great vigor.

The Hon Q. \. Marion felicitously
introduced Mr.. Bryan as man known

said that ne needed no introduction to

only thing to do was to introduce a
New Mexico audience to Mr.. Bryan.
Colonel Bryan opened his speech
with strong appeal to people to vote

Vance Crswel Mccormick, new
chairman of the Democratic national
committee, was the personal choice of
President Wilson to manage his cam
paign for reelection.
A native of Harrisburg, Pa. the new
campaign leader is forty-four years of
age He is of Scotch-lrish ancestry and
is noted as a hard fighter in whatever
field of endeavor he enters, be it sports,
civic reform or party reform.
Soon after he left Yale, where in 1892
he was captain of the university foot
ball team, he entered politics in his ma
tive city as member of the common
council An independent city council
man, a reformer, he was the reform
mayor of his city at the age of twenty
nine, and his performance exceeded his
promises. He didn't backslide. He was
just as much of a reformer by his acts
in office as he was by his words during
his candidacy He was known even by
many of his political opponents as the
best mayor Harrisburg ever had"
The Democratic nominee for gov
ernor in 1914, he made a brilliant cam
paign, in which he had the support of
many Progressives.
Mr.. Mccormick is extensively inter
ested in agricultural development.
With A. Mitchell Palmer he broke up
the old Democratic machine and was
one of the leaders at the Baltimore con-
vention who made the selection OF
Woodrow Wilson possible.
He succeeded William H. Taft as a
trustee of Yale and is chairman of the
athletic reorganization committee Of
that university. Mr.. Mccormick was
also director of the federal reserve
board of Philadelphia. from which po
sition be has resigned.

H.. where he learned the trade of ma
chinist as boy. From his home he
went to Chicago. became locomotive
fireman and before he was twenty-one
an engineer. Then he became a sales
man of railroad supplies and later
went into business for himself with the
idea of developing his ideas for max
ing pneumatic tools. The tools began
to sell in great quantities. Next he
went to England and erected another
factory there.
The opportunity came to sell out at a
big figure, and he retired to his coun-
try place at Wheaton. ILL.,. where he
farmed and bred prize stock. Several
years later he went into other business
enterprises in Chicago and built up an
other fortune. Naturally a leader. he
became president of the Illinois Manu-
featuring association. This position
and his directories in railroads and
financial institutions he resigned when
appointed TO the federal trade commits
sion early last year.

THE CUSTOM OF LIFTING"
Strange English Development of the
Story of the Resurrection.

Strange English Development OF the
Story of the Resurrection.
1t is strange that absurdities should
have arisen from what is to Christians
the solemn idea of the resurrection or
lifting" of Christ. In one of the Eng
lish countries a grave divine stepped
into a wayside inn one day Of Easter
week.
No sooner was he seated than two
'trapping women rushed in and, max
ing what children call CHAIR" with
their arms, invited him to be lifted
md carried In state through the streets.
With a small sum of money he bought
them off and made amends for his evil
dent dismay at what they had consid-
cred an honor.
On Easter Monday and Shrove Tues
day the people were in the habit of
going about lifting" or "heaving"
each other, each three times.

NEVADA AND TYPE OF NEW ANTI-AIR CRAFT
naughts of the Atlantic fleet, the Penn
sylvania and the Nevada, have already
been equipped with these guns.
American naval officers contend that
these are the most effective guns in the
world for use against air craft. This
claim is set up In a statement recently
issued by Secretary Daniels, in which
he says:
Several of the newest dreadnaughts
of the Atlantic feet are now equipped
with the most effective anti-air craft
guns in the world A quantity of these
guns are completed and will be mount
ed on other vessels as rapidly as ships
become available for navy yard work.
Three years ago we had no anti-air
craft guns. The design then under
consideration, which proposed the adap-
tation of former secondary battery
guns, had to be discarded"
The gun is of three inch bore and of
fifty calibers. The claim made for it
by naval ordnance experts is that it
will shoot five miles straight up into
the air.

Mr.. Jordan learned that young men

Cleveland at night must wait three
quarters of an hour for city car at the

Carson City daily appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1907-1930, 1916-11-21

chief justice. had spoken OF the fact
that March A. 1921. would fall on
Sunday and he was concerned to
know whether it would be proper or
permissible for President Monroe to
take the oath of office for the second
term on that day and if his failure to
be inaugurated then would leave a
hiatus in the office of president for
the twenty-four hours.
The letter is in the handwriting OF
the chief justice and was copied at
the state department for the New
York Times correspondent out OF a
nusty volume OF record, bound in
sheepskin. In it's application to the
case OF Woodrow Wilson, one of the
interesting features is that while MIR
Wilson will still be president on Sun
day, March 4, 1917. after his first
term expires, he will not be constitu
ticnally empowered to perform any
executive function until be has taken
the oath of office for second term
on Monday, March 5th.
The letter Of Chief Justice Marshall
reads as follows:
Prom Washington, Feb. 20. 1921
Sir: l have conversed with my
brethren on the subject you suggest
ed when had the pleasure of seeing
you, and will take the liberty to com
municate the result.
"As the constitution only provides
that the president shall take the oath
it prescribes before he enters ons the
execution OF his office and as the
law is silent on the subject. the time
seems to be in some measure at the
discretion of that high officer. There
is an obvious propriety in taking the
oath as soon as it can conveniently
be taken and thereby shortening the
interval in which the executive power
is suspended. But some interval is in.
evitable. Tht time OF the actual pres.
ident will expire, and that OF the
presidentelect commence, at II in
the night of the Sd of March. 1t has
been usual to take the oath at mid
day on the 4th. Thus, there has beer
uniformly and voluntarily an interva
OF twelve hours during which the eN
ecutive power could not be exercised
This interval may be unavoidably
