From The Detroit Free Press. ]


The Republican convention which
has just adjourned in Chicago saw a
most remarkable episode In American
political history, an episode probably
without precedent in the nations his.
tory with the exception of Washing.
tons first nomination.
It saw q man chosen by great
party as it's candidate for the presi-
dency of the United States who had
made no effort whatever to win the
honor, who had not asked the nomin-
alton, who had not solicited vote
directly or indirectly, who had not
as much rs vouchsafed to a solitary
human being, as far as Is known, any
iutimation that he would accept the
nomination If it were rendered to him.
People. speak often wistfully of the
hope that in American politics Office
might seek the man. and not the man
the Office. 1t has been q vague dream
until now; but in this year the highest
Office Of all, the presidency of the
United States, has sought the man.
Forward Marching Americanism.
From the Grand Rapids Herald
Charles Evans Hughes will be the
next President Of the United States.
The superb governmental capacity, the
incorporating courage, the lofty
character, the vitality essential patriotic
purposes, and the irresistible logic
with which he will sweep the country
when he opens his campaign-these
things will make an appeal to an
electorate, wearied Of hypocrisy and
experiment in the high places which
will carry Mr.. Hughes to victory on
the crest Of q mighty wave Of forward
marching Ansr icahIsm.'s s.s
He will Rive the isuppoort sofsaEx
President Theodore Roosevelt who has
given the country magnificent ex.
ample of subordinating self to principle
in the patriotic messages which he has
sent to Chicago during the past seven
days, and which will be duplicated in
an infinitely intensified vigor ere many
moons have shoue upon this most
crucial presidential canvass since
James Buchanan and his "watchful,
compromising waiting" was driven
from power. Mr.. Roosevelt will never

CANADIAN BRIDGE coLLAPSEs-
IS WORKMEN KILLED

Montreal, Sept. II. = The central
span of the Quebec bridge, which has
been under construction for many
year and which was to link the Cana
dian trans-continenta1 railway sys-
TEN from Halifax to Vancouver, fell
today as it was being placed in posi-
ton, killing % workmen.
1t is estimated there were 9OImen
on the bridge at the time the span
collapsed.
One of the girders holding the
span at the northern corner first
gave way as the huge mass of steel
was being lifted into position. The
remaining jacks held fora few sec
onds and then gave way, and the
span, with a mighty splash, plunged
into the channel.
This is the second catastrophe at
the bridge. In 1907 70 lives were
lost by the collapse of a. portion of
the structure then under construc-
ton.

PRESERVE THE BIRDS.

Col. G. o. Shields of New York,
president of the League of American
Sportsmen, places the annual cost to
farmers in this country because of
the destruction of birds at $1,000
100000. "There are 100000
shotguns in use" he said Sand that
number is being increased 100000
every year. There are 9OO,OOO,OOO
shotgun cartridges being made and
burned each year in an effort to get
the remaining birds.
"The cotton growers are losing
$1OO,OO0,OO0 a year because of the
ravages of the boil weevil. Quails,
prairie chickens, meadow larks and
other birds that have been almost ex-
terminated used to destroy these in
sects. Grain growers are losing a
like amount because Of the chinch
bug. The Hessian fly is costing them
$2OO,OO0,OO0 more"

Uniform Policy.

A uniform policy of industrial cas-
ualty insurance in Kentucky probably
will be required by the Workmen's
Compensation Board, which has held
conference with representatives of
the casualty companies in regard to
the from of the policy and rates.
The board has authority to require
the policies to be uniform or to re-
quire its approval of the form adopt
ed by each company and to supervise
rates. Whether the mutual insurance
plan will be adopted by Kentucky
employers probably will depend on
the rates offered by stock companies
doing business in the State.

business and professional world who
have laid aside their business and

There is a bright day coming for
the church in general when big bust

POST OFFICE WITHOUT A DOOR
inns Pubic Building is TO
Be Rectified.

The General Post Office building
in Dublin, writes an Irish corre-
spondent, according to the Manches-
ter Guardian, has long been a stand
ing joke with the foreigner who has
visited ireland. It dates from 1920,
and is an admirable piece of archi-
lecture, with its magnificent pillars
that give out on the main thorough
fare of the city. Only, Francis John
son, the Irish architect, forgot one
thing. He forgot to add a door to
the doorway or portico of the build
ing. Descriptions of this splendid
but ever-closed house, known to the
natives as a post Office, have gone all
over Europe during the last hundred
years.
Familiarity breeds Indifference
CONTINUES our correspondent, says
the Guardian, and the curiosity of
the thing seems to have struck very
few Of our own Dublin people. Be-
sides, We knew, in fact, that it was
possible to find a way into the place.
We took, as a matter of course, the
dark and devious approach of back
streets to the side entrance through
which one passed in single file. 1t
was only few days ago that we real
lied the situation. Workmen had
been busy for some time at the front
of the building, and now it has be-
come evident that Johnson's omis-
sion is to be remedied. The door,
which historians will say it took a
hundred years to make, gradually
appears on Sackville street.
