Republicans Nominate.
Sen. Warren G. Harding For
President; Gov. Calvin Cool
idge For V. President.

Coliseum, Chicago, June Ex-senator
Warren G. Harding, of Ohio. was NOM
mated for the Presidency late today In
the Republican National Convention on
the tenth ballot, receiving fraction over
645 votes.
Gov. Calvin Coolidge, of Mass, was to-
night nominated for Vice-President by
the Republican National Convection.
PENNSYLVANIA s vote gave him his major
ity in the ballot as it did Senator Hard
ing, the Presidential nominee.
In dramatic session in which Cover
nor Lowden, of Illinois, released all his
friends his delegates turned to Harding
in rapid succession. The Harding land
slide, which started with gentle move
ment early in the morning. steadily and
surely grew and resisted all efforts OF
Wood and Lowden to check it If they had
a disposition to do so.
Immediately after Senator Harding's
nomination was fact, it was decided to
attempt to have brief recess on the
floor, with the delegates remaining. so
choice could be decided upon for second
place, and the business of the conven-
ton ended tonight.
Senator Harding was in an anteroom
nearby while the the convention was
cas- ting the ballots which made him the
Republican nominee. For some of the
time he chatted there with Governor
Lowden. who had given up the fight a
few minutes before. Mrs. Harding also
was with him.
Colonel Proctor, General Woods man
ager, and others visited Senator Hard
ing and Governor Lowden there while
the convention was noisily and anxiously
making history only short distant away
When the result was communicated to
him by Charles B. Warren, of Michigan,
Senator Hardire left for his hotel with
Mrs. Harding and announced that he
would have no statement to make at this
time.
1t was just about the moment that
Governor Sproul in person in his seat on
the floor was casting the GO from Penn
sylvania, which ran Harding's total over
500 and gave him the nomination.
As the convention realized that NOM
ince had been made bedlam cut loose and
there was an unstrained demonstration
for few minutes. When quiet was re-
stored the calling Of the roll was contin-
ued. Contrary to expections, many of
the remaining States held their origina
formations. giving complimentary or
farewell votes to favorite sons or men
whom they had been supporting.
Much to the regret of William P.
Jackson, the national committeeman, Mr..
Lowndes and some others in the delega
ton, 10 opportunity was found to cast
the delegations vote for Senator Joseph
]. France. They were sincerity anxious to
do that, and had arranged to get Senator
France some votes from other States; by
way of compliment. But the row in the
over leaving General Wood
had been so keen that it is impossible to
line the delegation up soldly for the Sen
ator.
The final vote received by the different
candidates is as follows:

Money Goes Up

The advance in the rate of interest on the United States Treasury cer- tifcates of indebtedness to five and one quarter per cent reaches the high water mark in interest paid by the Government A few weeks ago four and three quarter per cent tax certi- fcates were offered by the Treasury, but the public would not buy While government obligations have been selling at low interest rates, commer- cial rates have been on a basis of be- tween six and eight per cent in large number of cases.
 There has been no end of keen dis appointments among holders of Lib erty Bonds due to the fact that there has been a steady decline in the mar ket value of these Government pledges Now that some of the S100 bonds are selling considerably below s90, the initiated public that has had no pre- vious experience in the rise and fall of prices and securities, cannot figure it out satisfactorily that the bonds which they were told would always be good for every cent they cost, are COW down to so low a figure. Evi- dently Liberty Bonds are undergoing a natural readiustment to the mount ing interest rates noted throughout the industrial market.

A SERMON FROM A CELL

"Keep clean in body, mind and soul' is a slogan suggested by a prisoner at Jefferson City. As a health tablet alone it could hardly be improved. No one will deny that clean living is es- sential to the health of the body. Some of the most terrible diseases result from neglect of the rule Infection and contagion are widely ruinous to health and to life. In a few words the slo- gan covers also a profound psychol- ogy. The influence of mind and men tai habits upon health is clear, though the manner in which 1t Is eXerted may sometimes be obscure. What of the relations of the soul to health Here the question enters the profound ly great region of spirituality. Clean Illness is good for health, morality promotes it. and religious instincts are in harmony with the must funda- mental conditions of health. A sound mind in a sound body is proverbial phrase. So is the precept that to be virtuous is to be happy, and to be happy without the blessing of health is difficult indeed.
 A healing power exists in what is called nature, fortunately for the per petuation of a benefcent existence. No doubt the prisoner at Jefferson City is Q praying man, and thankful for the privilege of seeking anywhere communion with the higher power that man cannot comprehend and yet to which he intelligently yields obe- dience.
 The proposed slogan fits well into the work of the healing movement and discussions.-St Louis Globe Democrat.

and the subscription list. amounting to anywhere from 19,OO0 to 100000 subscribers Mr. Creel said that he could neither find nor acquire any authority or power for disposing of the great war paper, and therefore he announced that anyone who desir- ed to make use of the lists Of sub scribers was at liberty to do so. Those immediately in charge of the official publication availed themselves of MT. Creel's hospitable invitation and used these valuable lists in starting their own publication as a successor to the Government newspaper that had cost a barrel of money during war time. In all fairness it is hard to see how Mr Greet could have managed thing differently, and the losses of his news paper enterprise deserve to be given a line in the war lists of schedules of casualties and junk

AN OPEN YEAR IN POLITICS

The Michigan primaries will open the eyes of a great army of profes- sional politicians to conditions which they have been trying to ignore. There is no line of political cleavage in either party. Both organizations are politically bankrupt. The voters are not going to be herded to the polls in 1920 by anybody. This is not a Republican year or Democratic year. It is an open year, and nobody is yet wise enough to foresee what may come out of this political and eco- homie fermentation.-New York World.

President May Be Available"

The word goes round in Washing ton that President Wilson is not in tezfering in any way with the can didacy of "Son-in-law.a or the Attor- ney General, and that he is neither giving aid or comfort to any of the candidates of his party. Dame Ru- nor further states that the President believes he is in pretty good shape mentally and physically; and is will ing to die,if need to be, to put through the treaty of peace and the League of Nations. And while he has not been, and is not now candidate for the Presidency, persistent reports are to the effect that he will hold himself in a position where he will be avail able" should Democracy and the Dem ocrats call loud enough.

Creel's Gift

When George Greet fell from grace and was called upon to wind up the af- fairs of the Bureau of Information at Washington, he had a daily news paper among his possessions belong ing to the Government, and called the Official Bulletin" In the absence of any method having been devised to save this valuable journal from the scrap heap, Mir. Creel permitted it to pass on to the private ownership of some astute publicists and journalists. Now MT. Greet is being severely crit icised because he did not collect a substantial price for the "good will"

"Desertion Section

The records of the seleetive draft show that out of more than 23,000,000 men which it called to the service Of their country that 325.2 men were classified as draft delineuents and de Serters. A thorough investigation has been made by the Government of each of these cases with the result that 151.354 men have been classified as non-willful deserters, and these will be given clean states after certain formalities. This leaves 173,911 names of those classified as 'willful deserters." The names of all these will be published broadly in order that the stigma of shame may be at tached to all such men as failed to heed the call of their country in time of war. Whatever disposition there may be in official circles to let bygones be bygones is out-weighed by the ie- cision of the War Department that prosecution in each of these cases Is necessary in order to keep the faith with the loyal young men of the coIn- try who did not finch when the hour for personal sacrifice was at eand It therefore seems certain that some of the clever" young men of the country who evaded military service have difficulties ahead that will make the solitary days of peaee-time very disagreeable in comparison to the memorable experiences among the crowds who went to war.
