tee Of Nebraska Delegation

Nominations.

John w. Towle returned from the
republican national convention yes
terday as the advance guard of the
Nebraska delegation of l6 who par
ticipated i'll the great meeting.
1t was satisfactory ending and
Nretells success for the republican
party this fall" said Mr.. Towle,
who was an enthusiastic Wood man
up to the time of the nomination
of Senator Harding. He is .optim;s-
tic over the nominations Of Hard
ing and Coolidge.
This Omaha delegate, who was a
member of the steering committee,
said that the uninstructed vote made
it possible for Lowden to tie with
Wood. but this scattered support
soon began to slip awa., practically
putting Lowden out of be field OF
pssl'@tas1fa usdoastsdly t56vssen t6sa made a
deal to 90 with Harding rather
than to throw his strength to
Wood" he said.
"The Nebraska delegates acted
conseiefltiously, he added. dividing
their votes between johnson and
Wood who were the choice of the
voters at the primary. We all went
to Wood on the ninth ballot and,
as you know, on the tenth ballot
four went to Harding, FIVE remain
ing with Wood and seven being for
Johnson. Wood would not make
any tieup."
Mr.. Towle stated that the Sec
onding address of Mrs. Douglas
Robinson, sister of the late Theo-
dore Roosevelt. made a profound
impression on the convention. Gov
ernor Willis of Ohio. he said, made
hit when he referred to "boys
and girls" in addressing the dele
gates.
The other Nebraska delegates
and R. B. Howell, national COM
mitteeman, are expected home this

leading editorial of more than a COL
umn tells of the nomination of Sen-
ator Warren G. Harding of Ohio

suggest that the platform gives
added importance to the interna-

at The Hague shortly to constitute
permanent court Of international
justice, which Elihu Root will at
tend as the American delegate.
The newspaper says it hopes the
meeting at The Hague may create
basis on which the United States
can cooperate in maintaining the
peace of Europe. The editorial cor

Meantime everyone must realize
that responsibility for European
peace rests principally upon France. ;"

Colby, secretary of state, was be-
ing discussed as the possible spokes-
man for President Wilson at the

San Francisco. The ticket headed
by Mr.. Colby, according to official
returns from the citywide primary,

retary. of the democratic central
committee, won by an overwhelming
majority over the so-called Bryan

ed. 1t will make an effort to have

The assassin was arrested and de-
clared the crime was not premedi-

Essad Pasha had picturesque
career. Regarded by all the Euro

as an Albanian outlaw, three years
later he was recognized by these
same powers as provisional presi-
dent and minister of war of Al

Prince William of Wied. Essad's
selection as president of Albania
was a reward for his services to

solicit and receive permission to
notify the sultan of his downfall
and arrest him.
Recently an insurrection was be-
gun against the Italians in Albania

to support the Albanians and ap-
point Essad governor of Albania
