to say that / had no objection to the
nomination of southern man if the
convention thought proper to do so.
SEWELL RUNNING MATE.
7 did not mean to advise such a
nomination, but / wanted them to
know that l did not share the objec-
tons so often raised to a Southern
man. / felt then, as / have felt since.
that a man otherwise eligible should
not be barred because he lived in the
South, even though he were an OK
Confederate as most of the men old
enough to be candidates were.
/ had become convinced, even then,
that the voters were not so much in
terested in the locality of the candi-
date or in his position during the Civil
War. as they were in his attitude on
public questions.
Honorable Arthur G. Scwell was
nominated. the chief argument being
that | lived so far West that they
should have an Eastern man to bal
ance the ticket. Mr.. Sewell had gain
cd distinction as the only silver man
on the national committee represent
ing Eastern states. He had voted
to seat the Nebraska delegation when
the question was before the commit
tee. / did not know Mr.. Sewell un-
til he was nominated but L learned
to love him as l became acquainted
with him.

The convention closed on Saturday
and Mrs. Bryan and l spent Sunday
with the family of Judge Lyman
Trumball, he having died short time
before the convention. Then came the
trip to Lincoln by way of Salem, my
birthplace. where we had left the chill
dren while we attended the conven-
ton.
Mr.. Sewell was misunderstood and
underestimate because he did not
make speeches during the campaign.
And the reason he did not make
speeches was because the Populists
had endorsed my candidacy and had
nominated their own vice presidential
candidate to run with me. The
Democratic committee was afraid that
his activity in the Western states
would offend the Populists who were
supporting our ticket.
Mr.. Sewell was Democratic to the
core. and if We had been elected ana
| had died, there uld have been no
change in the general course of the
administration. Some criticized him
because he was the president of
national bank, and yet, was it not
more to his credit that he withstood
the influences that surrounded him,
and favored the free coinage of sill
yer. when nearly all If tho other ma.
tional bankers opposed it?
Is it not to his credit tnat he fav-
ored an income tax when nearly all
of the rich men opposed it? Is it

Among those who came with such

NEW YORK. October 2.-In a re.
port prepared for the joint commits
sion on Christian healing of the Prot
estant Episcopal Church. and made
public yesterday. DR.. Edgar S. Cowles,
director of the Park Avenue Hospital,
asserted that the ignorance and super
stition of the middle ages exists in the

In his report, DR.. Cowles, who is
also director of the Body and Soul
Medical and Mental Clinic. and a mem.
ber of the joint commission, said that
while the church has an authentic
healing mission, it should openly de-
clare tht there is no such thing as
miraculous healing.
He recommended revision of the
church canonS, SO as to treat any
priest or layman preaching the mirac.
ulous healing in any form as. one COM
mitting a crime against the laws of
the church, of religion and of society.
DR.. Cowles' report will be presented
to the commission for it's approval. If
approved, it will be presented at the
general convention Of the Episcopal
Church in New Orleans this month as

Letter From President.
In letter addressed to Winthrop
NJ. Crane, jr., son Of the former Sen
ator and read at the exercises, Presi-
dent Coolidge said:
1T is q source of particular regret
10 me that / cannot be with you on
october >, because the memorial which
u then TO be dedicated is not a formal
evidence OF the respect and esteem
due TO q public servant, but rather a
token of friendship. 1t is as a friend
fhdt those who knew Senator Crane
Will always remember him. a ready
sympathy, deep understanding, a
generous Willingness to see what was
best in those about him-all these
qualities combined to attach and hold
those with whom he came in con-
tact. The secret Of that loyalty which
?T. Crane inspired lay, however, in
something even finer.
1T has been we'll said that there
can be no friendship without con-
fdence, and ii was this complete trust
IN his integrity and character which
enabled him to WELD so large an in
f1uence in the affairs of the State and
Nation. 1t is not only because he had
great mind, but because he had an
even greater heart, that his friends
and nefghbors of Berkshire County
have dedicated this monument. a last.
ing memorial to all that is finest and
best in human relationship. 1t is one
of the prides of my life to think that
he was my friend"
Speaking as an intimate friend Of
Senator Crane, Chief Justice Taft said
tn part:
senator Crane was conservative.
1ie believed the happiness and prog
feSS of the world depended, in part, a
least. on the right of property and its
careful preservation. He had large
corporate interests himself and was a
trustee for the holdings of others, but
be was no Bourbon or reactionary.
He insisted on fairness in dealing with
the public and individuals by every
company with which he was connect
cd. He sought fair compromises. He
always tried to find a common ground
with the other side
Senator William NJ. Butler of Mas
sachusetts said in part:
with full appreciation of all the
great events with which he was con-
nected during his career, have al
ways felt that the finest and biggest
thing was his preservation at all times
of that traordinary spirit of kindli-
ness and humanity toward his fellow
man. The fellowship of mankind was
with him long established many years
before Il became a phrase in common
