Birds as Lamps.

The natives of Trinidad make use Oh
the young guacharo in an unusual man.
ner. The young are very fat and are
frequently found to weigh more than
the full grown birds. Their fat is used
by the natives to produce an oil which
Is a substitute for butter. Also it is
frequently the custom of the natives
to draw a wick through the body Of a
young guacharo and use it as a lamp
or candle. Thus the guacharo is some
times called the oil bird.

The Nominations at st. Louis

The nomination by reclamation OF
Mr.. Wilson at the st. Louis conven-
ton to succeed himself proves the
popularity of the president and the
success which the administration has
had in the accomplishment of genuine
constructive legislation.
His denomination is the exaction of
the situation. Mr.. Wilson has raised
the dominating issues of the approach
ing presidential campaign in his first
administration. They are distinctly
his own and no one but himself has
ever been seriously thought OF as one
who should be placed in leadership
on them.
The eagerness with which the rank
and file of the party has responded to
this view of the matter was an earn
est of the action at st. Louis, If not
a direct mandate thereto. There was
really no reason to wait for plat
form. 1t had been already written in
the acts of the president, thing the
convention gracefully recognized.
The call from the floor of the con-
vention for an address from Mr.. Bryan
and his hearty, cordial, vigorous re-
Spouse effectively silences any sug-
gestion of material differences in the
party. Mr.. Bryan is still as he has
been for twenty years, the greatest
individual influence, divorced from
official power in the Democratic party.
The effect Off the convention has
been to place the bugaboo of prepared
ness in the proper light and this
curtain, which has been desperately
employed by Republicans to cloak the
real important work of President Will
sons administration, in such power
fully beneficial applications as the
federal reserve law, rural credits leg
islation, and other acts which reach
to the sources of production and dis
tribution was drawn, disclosing the
unparalleled prosperity of the )coun-
try and the foundations which have
been laid to insure the adjustment
of business to conditions when wars
alarms shall have passed.
While it is deplorable that it should
have been deemed expedient to lay
so much stress on "Americanism'
even almost to the point of hysteria
at a time when there is absolutely
no suggestion of disloyalty exacting
it, the situation is unquestionably
provoked by the zeal of preparedness
advocates of the sob variety who pro-
fess to imagine an army of invaders
attacking the United States.
Deserved recognition of quality ser
vice is also given Mr.. Marshall, and
this adds strength to the Democratic
organization. Indiana is usually
classed as a doubtful state. Aside
from its meritfulness his nomination
lends to the ticket political strategic
advantage that it would have been
unwise not to have taken into con-
sideration, since the Republicans have
gone angling for it's electoral vote

MISS CRANE TO LEAVE CALUMET

The position to which this well

chorus purposes. Miss Cranes special

While her many Calumet friends re-

DONALD II. SCRIBNER

Concerning Scribner and his rela
lions to Senator Page, the Herald
properly says "Scribner is a man OF
good standing, fine personal character
and has been in confidential relations
with Senator Page for number Of
years"
Senator Page gladly admits that
Donald H. Scribner has for a great
many years occupied confidential
place with him. Congress adjourned
on the 4th day Of March, 1911, Rich
admits that his employment ceased at
that time. Senator Page no longer
had need of a clerk in Washington and
he proceeded as was his right to ap-
point a clerk who could be with him at
Hyde Park, his home, and give such
attention to his duties as the Senator
might require. He was wholly with
in his moral and legal right in doing
this and he owes no apology therefor
to Arthur NJ. Rich, the Allen M.
Fletcher Senatorial Club or the Rut-
land Herald.
Casual reading of the Bean letter
shows what every Senator and Con-
gresham knows to be a more or less
common practice in Washington. The
whole story is one calculated to blind
the people, to shake confidence in Sen
ator Pages integrity and to assassin
ate character.
In the alleged interview Of Rich, the
Herald makes Rich say that "To the
best of his (Rich's) knowledge and be-
lief this money was appropriated by
Senator Page and not applied to any
other purpose" This is deliberate
falsehood as is clearly shown in the
Bean letter. The Herald makes Rich
say that "he never had any CORE
spondence with anyone regarding the
division Of the pay" In the light of
the Bean letter this is Of course an
other deliberate falsehood.
The Herald makes Rich say: Il wenr
to Washington in good faith expecting
to receive the full pay" in view Of
the Bean letter and in view Of Rich's
own letters of March 10, and April
%, above given this must be charac-
terized as a deliberate falsehood, eth
err by the Herald correspondent or by
Mr.. Rich.
The Herald quotes Mr.. Rich as say
ing: "When ! was summoned to SEN
ator Pages office and told TO give up
half Of my salary to Miss Seymour, !
could hardly believe my ears" That
such an incident ever took place, in
view Of the Bean letter, is utterly in
conceivable.

facts and is a full, clear, and compre
hensive statement concerning tn,
trade made between Rich and Bean.
Remember that Rich terminated hi.
services with Senator Page March 4th
1911. Nine days later, March 10
1911, he wrote Senator Page in this
language:
"lf you want me with you in
Washington during the coming SEES
sion, | want to come, and will be will
ing to come at the same basis as
during the last session"
But this is not all, for still anxious
to again enter Senator Pages employ
he wrote him under date of April %.
1911, five weeks later, as follows:
Have you got your committee
assignments so that you know how
much help you are going to want?
If so, and you need me, shall be ever
so happy to come. You know like
the work in Washington and like to
work for you"
1t is inconceivable that Senator Page
should have agreed to pay Rich $l20
per month as he claims, and that after
paying him $50 per month for such
services as he rendered between Janu-
AIRY list, 1910 and March 1st, 1911,
that Rich should write Page as he did
March Is, 1911, asking that he be per
mitted to come back "at the same
basis as during the last session"
