The convention was in session ail night, but a super ~atitioua sergeant-at-arms atopped ths clock at midnight in order to have ths records show that Bryan was not nominated on Friday. Denver, July 10.—William Jennings Bryan was nominated for the third time for the office of president of the United States by the democratic na tional convention, at 3:40 this morning, Denver time, and 4:40 a. m., central time, amid acenes of frenzied enthus iasm. The result came after an all night session, which was kept in a constant state of turmoil up to the cul minating moment when the Nebraska leader was proclaimed the choice of the convention. $0" The nomination was made on the first and only baillot, the vote stand ing: William J.

New York Vote Goes to Bryan. The taking Of the vote ha.d been followed with breathless Interest as state af*er state swelled the 3ry strength. When New York was reached in the call of states, the announce ment of Chief Murphy, "Seventy-eight votes for Bryan," brought out a wild outburst of enthusiastic approval, which for the time compelled suspen sion of the roll call. Further delay was caused by the demand for a poll of the New York delegation. On the poll, many New York delegates, in cluding Judge Alton B. Parker, the presidential nominee four years ago, remained silent, but the entire seven ty-eight votes of the delegation were oast for Bryan under the "unit rule." Pennsylvania was, similarly called, after a sharp disagreement within the delegation, andi the vote of Pennsyl vania as finally oast wm divided. Adjournment Until 1 P. M. The convention adjourned at 8:50. •this morning until 1 p. m., after hav lng been in session continuously for more than eight hours.

At Its conclusion a ringing cheer went up from dele gates and spectators. The provisions concerning trusts, railway regulation, inoome tax and v&rlous other provisions awakened lively approbation. The platform was adopted by a rousing unanimous vote. Speechmaking Resumed. Speeches seconding the nomination of candidates were then resumed, with a llmtt of five minutes to each speech. A score' of speeches had been sched uled ir. advance, but owing to the widespread Bryan sentiment and the desire of various states to record their preference for him, many impromptu speeches were made and nearly every state voiced Its approval of his candi dacy. DELEGATES ARE 8UPERSTITIOUS. 'Applaud When Sergeant-at-Arms Stops Clock Before Friday Arrives. It will always be a question whether Bryan was nominated, officially, on Friday. According to the big clock in "the convention hall, It. Is still a few minutes before midnight on Thursday, July 9. It was a superstitious ser geant-at-arms who arranged for a week without a Friday. He put his idea Into effect without consulting any one. Having accomplished his pur pose, the cheers of the democrats as sembled proved a unanimous adoption of the sergeant's mental resolution.

Denver, July 10.—The only import ant plank of the platform not given out to the press yesterday was that on currency. The plank places upon repnblioan shoulders the blame for the panic of 1907. It alleges that the administration aligned itself to Wall street for the purpose of facilitating stock specula tion. Treasury funds were used illeg ally for this purpose and to aid the passage of the emer^ncy currency bill, The plank favors the establishment of postal savings banks along the lines of democratic principles, and expresses dissatisfaction with the measure for this purpose gathered by the republic ans. It also proposes government In surance of bank deposits. It ts as fol lows: "The panic of 190T, coming without any legitimate excuse, when ,the repub lican party had for a decade been In complete control of the federal govern ment, furnishes additional proof that It Is either unwilling or Incompetent to protect the Interests of the general public. It has so linked,the country to Wa)1 street that the si niLof vtHB specu­ and that It be constituted so as to keep the deposited money In the communi ties where It Is established.

The text of Johnson'fe telegram is as follows: "Please accept my heartiest congrat ulation on your nomination, and the splendid victory which it implies.

Undercurrent of Dissatisfaction Over Dictatorial Methods. Denver, July 10.—Bryan's record breaking triumph of a third nomina tion. A convention full of enthusiasm and outburst listening raptly to hpurs of speech-making in which denunciation of President Roosevelt and predictions of a democratic, tidal wave are the chief features. Bryan's ma.nagt.-rs playing with all their skill for the hearty co-operation of Tammany and a hope of carrying New York, but Tammany sullen and unresponsive under a smiling exter ior. The commoner master of the situa tion in every particular, sitting at the end of a wire at Fairview with his brother Charles at the Denver c-nd, the two of them directing and man aging the convention down to the smallest detail, bh'eir messengers run ning to and fro carrying their orders. Much disguised discontent over these dictatorial methods, many dem ocrats of prominence disgusted with what they call .the hypocrisy of de nouncing Washington bossism at Chi cago while practicing the same thing at Denver from Lincoln. Leaders eager to push their friends or favorites for vice president, but realizing the futility of doing so while the shadow of Bryan's imperious will and unknown Intentions hangs over the convention. The platform delayed and lengthy, probably the longest party creed ever written, despite Bryan's original pur pose to make it the shortest. A platform much mulled over, with a view to making it fit as exactly as possible Bryan's idea of winning both west and east from both radicals and conservatives. Every plank of importance wired from Brother Charles' room to Fair view and edited by the editor of The Commoner. No serious opposition from the anti-Bryan men, their dominant Idea being to let the chief run the whole thing himself and take all the responsibility.

As a-result-of this state of affairs ft is not difficult to get the bust young men In Arryarica to join the compan ies of the national guard, and the company comesto be an aristocrat ic club whfc'fr In no way impairs its efficiency. In some of the large cities in the east there sire companies cpm posed and offered 1y aristocrats. In Iowa the federal government is spending more money on the Iowa Na-, more the federal government will In time spend more than it is now. The result of this expenditure Is to make the service In the guard very attrac tive. CPraoticaJly ovwy company In the state now has a spacious hall for &rill purposes with suitable quarters 'at tached. The policy of the state Is to refuse to establish a company in a city unless there Is suitable hall or armory room that can -be rented. The state supplies the armory, the federal' government supplies the guns and Uni forms, the martial spirit of the young men of America and the desire for stir and aotlvity doeB the rest. The com plete execution of .the idea makes a large standing army unnecessary. The history of the wars of all coun tries, It is claimed, proves that the vol unteer soldier is the best soldier, and the volunteer soldier in America is (better than the regular army soldier, even tho .the latter is a volunteer. Ad jutant General Thrift claims, and most public officials agree with him, that a company of the national guard sta •ridned.lh a city one of the assets of the city. It is not that .the people of Iowa need a company of soldiers to put down strikes and rebellions, nor even to stop priz. iflghts, but that a company of uniformed young men drilled in the arts of war add life and a metropolitan air to a city .that is a genuine asset. More and more companies of the Iowa National Guard are coming to be fixtures in the communities in which they are located. It Is seldom that a company is disbanded now. The state legislaturb enacted a bill awarding medals for long service in the national guard. A silver medial for five years' service and a bar to be added for each additional ur to 2fi when a gold badge is awarded. Not alone these badges but the money the government and the state are spending which makes it "worth while". 'to the members of a company, Is operating to keep the companies together. Only when one company is mustered out can another city get a company established. Th» new rifle range north of this city Is now nearly completed. The high water in the Des Moines river for a time stopped ithe work on the backstop for the bullets. The .water covered completely a graval bed that was be ing used in the concrete work. The water in the river has not subsided sufficient to allow workmen to get at the gravel bed but It Is discovered that the high water has deposited a new gravel bed nearer to the place where It is wanted for concrete work than the old one and of a decidedly better grade of gravel. The .water has subsided so as to leave this high and dry and the work has ajgain .been re sumed and will be pushed to comple tion. The range will not be used till In September' when the target contest will be held preparatory to the na tional contest. Ernest E. Hart, republican national committeeman from Iowa, and a bank er and business man of Oourodl Bluffs, Is unaware that there hae been an election in Iowa and that W. C. Hay ward. is now secretary of state and not W. B. Martin. It Is presumed by poli ticians that Secretary Shaw will use this «s further proof that the masses of the people of the state are unac quainted with lti great men and are therefore unfit .to select state offRsers toy means of the primary election. Pos sibly it will be .presented at .the next session of the legislature as one of Uhe reasons why the primary election law There's Real Pleasure and Goodness in a dish of A /formerly called Elijah's Manna/ Toasties v/ r, j-. with Cream "The Tusts Lingers."

Special to Times-Republican. Iowa Falls, July 10.—'Formal an nouncement was made today to the four lodges of the Knights of Pythias In Iowa, of the candidacy of Mr. Clar I enee Hodge Burlingame, of this city, for grand master of exchequer for Iowa. For several years, Mr. Burlin game has been a prominent member of the grand lodge of Iowa, and enjoys a wide acquaintance among members of the order in Iowa, because of his activity in grand lodge circles since he became a member of that body in 1900. I-Ie is the choice of the lodges of his home county and district, and will probably be accorded the high honor that he seeks, in recognition of his long and faithful service, not alone In the grand lodge, but in the subordinate lodges at Eldora and In this city. Mr. Burlingame was knighted in Evergreen lodge at ESldora, and became a member of Alpine lodge No. 7, of this city, in 1893. Mr. Burlingame is casliJer of the First National bank of tftrs city, and -has served his home town in a public and private way so acceptably that the trust reposed by the responsibility of the position to which he now aspires, could not be placed in worthier hands. For several years Mr. Burlingame Was a resident of Waterloo. PROSECUTORS ASK NEW LAWS. County Attorneys Want Statutes Amended to Force Witness to Appear.

Compulsory Cleanliness on Part of Children Important in Lessening Death Rate MANY EXAMINED AT IOWA CITY During the Examination of 832 8chool Children, 2,735 Teeth Were Found to Need Attention—Diseased Gums and Teeth Ideal Ground for the Develop ment of Bacteria. Special'"to Times-Republican. Iowa City, July 10.—Upon the ex amination of the teeth of 832 school children in Iowa City. It was found that 2,735 teeth needed attention, and Dr. E. A. Rogers, of the dental school of the university, and Dr. Brown, of Milwaukee, who aided in the examina tion, made the statement that the com pulsory examination of the teeth, to gether with the co-mpulsory.cleaning of the teeth in school children, would greatly lessen the death rate of the country and also increase the number of healthy children. Of the 832 pupils examined, 423 were boys and 409 were girls. In 398 eases, the occlusion was normal, 1,727 temporary teeth and 1,008 permanent teeth needed attention, 448 teeth or roots should be extracted, and S boys and 11 girls were suffering with ab scesses.

THE DRUGGISTS' PREDICAMENT. tmcn num stops to think about it -thtri la a great deal of sympathy felt tor ft* druggist who stood up before tilt convention and seriously proposed that all druggists cut out their booze %/biUtBMS. Tile drug business purely '•im honorable, dignified and highly profitable branch of retail merclvan dltlng. It is conducted by experts who (OTUfrt study the pharmacy profession and pass a state examination. The drug store Is the common gathering place for the Influential citizens of eaoh community and, as a rule, the druggist is a leader himself. But the booze business is degrading ithe line. In the first place public senti ment and public discussion is more and more associating the drug store with .illegal sales of liquor. ?t The Wilt of the day emphasizes the booze business of a drug store and finally the long profits in drug store Whisky have attracted to the business a class of men who would not dignify any profession. So general has beoame the suspicion of. drug store business that many a self respecting druggist feels sensitive about it He may be turning manfully away from the temptation of profits in the booze business yet be conscious (that many good people suspect him Just the same. It Is not surprising that "He breaks out in a convention with the '"proposition that druggists appeal to ktik legislature to prohibit all druggists .from selling booze. He wants to purify 'Ms profession from the taint of sus picion. He wants the sellers of booze to be labelled as distinguishable from Jthe sellers of medicine. He would have them find comfort by consort with the ^keepers of saloons. He wants to get away from the obliquy which embar rasses the respectable saloon keeper who finds the public so unwilling to distinguish* him from the dive keepers jtnd disreputables in his line. Let's honor the druggist who would out out {he booze. BOLTING THE PLATFORM. 'r. .1 'V Those who have been throwing ecom iums in the direction of Vinton for the gentleman who was supposed to be a good loser should begin to recall them. He has disclosed his real self and his Attitude is anything but regular. For instance the T.-R. had advised the •t' present governor to resign whenever he wanted to, which advice seems to have 'Been ignored by the governor but the Vinton politician replies: /K"Why! did not the editor advise the governor two years ago not to be a candidate again? He might have saved •the governor and the republican party 4 great deal of trouble. "Of what ad vantage to the party or to the people .,','ias been the third term of the govern t-or? Not any, except to breed turmoil ^ithiti the party ranks." Now think of that when therepublic **fi" Y" ate platform on which this cam paign is being waged goes into detail VW specify the 2-cent fare law, the anti pies law, the statewide primary law, ithe law prohibiting campaign contri butions from corporations and the law preventing watered,stock as the great 4nd glorious achievements "under the •sincere and able leadership of Albert B. Cummins." The gentleman who would quarrel about these things in the midst of a .campaign is trying to repudiate ^iis party platform. Then as an evidence of ill humor as well as irregularity the Vinton politic ian complains: "The fact is the governor's political career for the past three years has been governed by a lot of advisers like the editor of the Marshalltown Tlmes JRepublican, who had in mind their own Wishes a great deal more than they 'had the comfort and welfare of the .governor himself." Poor newspapering for It misleads -the reader.

Hob ison is-now a democratic congressman from the state of Alabama and is busy ing himself between sessions at Wash ington by traveling about the country lecturing on war matters, of which pome people consider him an authority. Incidentally he. is" putting forth on the •side the idea that Jaipan is doing ev erything, in her power to get into shape to take this country on in a bloody conflict with the hope of wrest ing from the United States its pres tige as a nation. Hobson, In a recent interview with Editor W. D. Jamleson, of the Shen andoah World, said that Japan wants to corttrol the Pacific so as to get the berieflt.of, big trade with China, which was. asserted as a reason wihy Japan contemplates throwing down the gauntlet to Uncle Sam that since the war 1th Russia, Japan has rtiore than doubled its national debt, a large part of the borrowed money going Into arms, battfleshlps, and offensive and de fensive preparations that It has over 1,5(^0,000 trained soldiers, 96,000 men working every minute on new battle ships and,110,000 Japanese in Hawaii that it has in the San Francisco school incident and in immigration matters tried to provoke the United States to war uid is ripe for it. 5.-M*- by pv ^«eans 'east, trVVtfttwt I*coeevelt exfHKta "TV to see war ailmost any time, and Hob son makes a plea 1'or a bigger navy in consequence of his assertions. If Pres ident Roosevelt we:-e to say that h-s ex pected war with j£,pan, it waul/!: al most tantamount to a declaratlv the same. But if t'here were some vcv that the people could get a nudge the -president privately, they would proba bly ibelieve it to be the case vor much quicker than they would belie *e it coming from Hobson. The fact that Hobson was once in the navy may color .his views of the matter owing to his inherent lovo for that branch of the government and his desire to see it maintained and enlarged to a glor ious strength. •But whatever Hobson might say would naturally be taken with a little salt, possibly several grains, on gen eral principles. His kissing episode shows that Hobson does not need a press agent to make .lectures sell. Then he managed to get out of the navy, against protests, on the claim that his eyesight was Impaired. But •none has heard at any time since then that his eyes were not. doing good service. He made "naste to jump into the Alabama congressional light and get into t'he house of representatives, where we have no record of his wear ing glasses. iHobson ought to make his living with less noise.

In the ebb and flow of human affairs generally, but particularly In politics, we (hear a great deal of praise for the "good loser." Since the morning of history men have been admired arid commended for -meeting defeat with courage and facing adversity with fortitude. It has sometimes occurred to us there is a higher test of charact er and conduct. Adversity calls forth the best in -manhood equipment. Tnere is in the elements of human character made and providied a reserve force which comes -Into aietion In the emer gencies of life. Creation has ordained a system of reinforcement that nerves the soul and the body for the sorrows and failures and disappointments of human experience. It is oply natural for men to rise above the trials of de feat and endure the soourglngs -of ad versity. A higher test -of manhood Is to be a 'gootf p-Inner,., The dignity of spirit,. the serenity of soul that comes out of reserve for the sweet uses of adversity are -usually in retirement in the intoxi cation of success. Victory blunts the finer sensibilities and whets the appe tite for conquest. It takes a lofty spirit to assume the air of humility so becoming to prosperity. The wolfish nature of the race in Its early days re vives in proud modern manhood in the presence of conspicuous achievement, and particularly wlhen vanquished fel low men are writhing In defeat. The world should cease to comment so much on the good loser and In the in terest of higher manhood and broader brotherhood build more stately stand ards for the hours of triumph.

The Bryans at Home The Bryan house is set on top of a hill and is surrounded by 155 acres of as nice farming land as is to be found anywhere in America Mr. Bryan paid $260 an acre for the first five acres In 1893, and since then has ac quired at odd times -the remainder. He did not begin to build until sev eral years after the first -purchase. The house is of red brick with sandstone trimmings and probably cost between $25,000 and $30,000. It has all the con veniences of a modern suburban home. 'Mr. Bryan grows a little of every thing on this farm and this year the crops are excellent. He will have four cuttings from his ten acres of alfalfa this season and it will be a record breakthg crop for him. This will bring him $14 a ton in the local -market, but he doe® not know how many tons he will have. This has been a wet sea son for farmers, but Mr. Bryan has suffered but little as his land Is high and dry. He does not talk much about his farm and probably does not pay a great deal attention to it, altho he knows what is going on. He has a paid head farmer who lives in a good house of his own and superintends -the work of the employes. There are. enough of these so that not one Is overworked. They move languidly about the place, as farm hands will on hot days when not urged, and take a pleasant interest in the coming and going of visitors. There Is an air of spick and span cleanliness and freshness about the place which might bring a real farmer to the criticism that there is too much style. But, as Mr. Bryan says, it is really a country home. He is not a farmer. There is every evidence about this beautiful place that Mrs. Bryan is an ideal and painstaking housekeeper, but her activities in other directions forces one to the conclusion that she intrusts her domestic duties to well trained servants. She says she has her trou bles with "help In the country." just the same as other mortals, but she does not let these vexations bother her here. At present the chickens, the kitchen, gardens, the dairies and other affairs of the house are not for her. She is helping her husband in the most practical way. To begin with, she understands the political situation in detail almost as well as her husband. For years she has been traveling with him, meeting the men who confer with him and tak ing part In the discussions. She now has a most capable private secretary and handles a heavier correspondence than Mr. Bryan. She receives herself a great .many letters and all get an swers. -She also answers a great many letters of her husband. He Indicates the answers and she dictates the re plies. ®is editorials in -the Commoner- and much of his other literary work is dic tated to her, and she writes on the typewriter Instead of taking notes. She is a capable and experienced wniter. and those who are familiar with this class of work can understand the ad vantage of having an amanuensis who is always ready with a word a phrase or an idea. In ithis respect the two are in perfect sympathy and together per form an Incredible amount of work without apparent fatigue. They inter sperse this with attention to visitors and other matters. In passing is Interesting to note that the Bryah children have been brought up in much the same way. They have learned how to work just as their father and mother work. The girls did not learn to sew or cook, but to read and write. The young son Is a student and worker and not so much Interested in the ordinary little play affairs which appeal to boys. He Is ambltlcus to be a zoologist, but noth ing !s settled as to the youngster'3 fu ture. At .present he is away visiting friends. Two Interesting personages of the Bryan household are the grandchil dren. Ruth and Bryan Leavitt, aged and 3. They are tho -childiren of Ho mer and Ruth Bryan Leavitt. He is living In Denver. Mr. Bryan will not permit the pictures of these children •to be taken and stories about them are not part of the "material" furnished to newspaper correspondents. Nearly every day the Bryans drive to tihe city in a curious -sort of a double seated rig. It has two seats, with a top and side curtains. The whee-ls have rubber tires. It is a roomy, comfy sort of a light wagon. Mr. Bryan sits In front and drives. His wife sits in the rear and superintends. Frequently one of their visitors Is taken downtown, and this fortunate -person sits on the rear seat with Mrs. Bryan, who keeps i'V a lively conversation, doing most ot th? questioning. After an hour or two of visiting -with Mrs. Bryan It is ?»sy to understand how abe keeps in 1 1 1 "r'i formed as. to what is going on In the world. She likes to know about peo ple, what tihey are doing and why they are doing what they are doing. Mr. Bryan lets the big pair jog along at a fair speed and takes a hand in the questioning occasionally. One of the horses is named John and the other Silas. Horses may come and go, but they are always John and Silas to Mr. and Mrs. Bryan. There are several horses on the Bryan farm. They are Jerry, Nance, George, etc., as farm horses go, but the moment they are hitched to this wagon the two so used become Jo.hn and Silas. There is an other large carriage in the shed and •three other vehicles, five in all. The horses may have any names the host lers see fit for them. Mr. and Mrs. Bryan do not know or care.

The task of making the enumeration of the !l0,000, 000 people in the United States, Alas ka, Hawaii and Porto Rico and in Guam, Samoa and the Panama, canal zone will toe one of enormous propor tions. It will toe the most gigantic work of enumeration that has ever been at tempted in this or any other country, and it is intended to reach the acme of correctness and thoroughness. Not merely a count and compilation con cerning the -population alone, it will in clude a census of agriculture, manu factures, mines and quarries. Director S. N. D. North of the cen sus bureau is already getting ready for the thirteenth census. Ho has been planning on it for a year or more. It was hoped by Mr. North that the Crumpacker bill to provide for the thirteenth and subsequent decennial censuses would bo passed the last ses sion of congress. But it failed of en actment along with numerous other measures of importance by reason of the rush at the close of the session and the anxiety of the congress leaders to hurry the session to an end. The Crumpacker bill, however, will doubtless be passed early the next ses sion. It is the first bill of high priv ilege in the house calendar, and it is expected it will be taken up the first or second day of the session and dis posed of by the house. It has not yet been acted on by the senate commit tee on census, that committee having held back until the house had oppor tunity to pass the measure. No delay In the senate, either In committee or on the floor, Is anticipated. It will cost about $14,000,000 to take the thirteenth census, but this is not carried in the Crumpacker bill, as it is on the house calendar. It was in the bill at first, but the speaker and Chair man Tawney of the house committee on appropriations thought It unwise to make so large an authorization a. year before it would be used and there was also a feeltng that the appropriation should be put in one of the regular ap propriation bills, as the legislative, ex ecutive and Judicial bill. The coming session of congress will no doubt ap propriate liberally for census pur poses. A census of the Philippines will not be Included in the coming decennial census for the reason that one was •taken In 1903 and It is doubtful wheth er the Philippines government would care to bear the cost of another enu meration so soon. ^Important changes in the taking and compilation of the census and in the method of publication of the returns will be made. For one thing, the re turns will be greatly condensed. The twelftih census required ten volumes. It is the expectation of Director North that the thirteenth census will be pub lished in six volumes or seven at the outside. The mortality statistics of ithe last census will be dropped. They were found unsatisfactory as collected at the last decennial census. The re- For Sunday Reading SVjt' ••1 All Sorts of Opinions .4 Goodell on the Ministry. In a copyrighted interview with James B. Morrow, Rev. Charles Le Roy Goodell, D. D., pastor of Calvary M. E. church, New York city, with its U.800 members making the largest con gregation in* the denomination, was a:led: "What must a minister do to suc ceed?'' "If he can pay the price he can al ways count on the help of the Lord, In early days the average service of tha man who entered the ministry of the Methodist church in New York or New England was only eight years. Toil, Its fervor and hardships, killed him before he was fairly started. To day, toy the calculations of life insur ance companies, preachers Jive longer thp.n any other class of our -popula tl.m.'Do you catch the point? Next t) work, I would put an intense liking for the job. Then comes love of man. Convince him that .what you are doing is disinterested, and you have him. Actual pleasure, too, must be taken in meeting, and talking with disagree able human beings of both sexes, be cause the labor of the ministry lies in personal contact infinitely more than it does In the power of preaching." "Are enough young men studying theology to supply the demand for preachers?" "No, and the church Is to blame. A minister sacrifices the future of his family and works all his life to be come a beggar in 'his old age. When years and physical -infirmities take him irom the pulpit he virtually goes from door to door for a living. Young men are impressed the wrong way by such a sight. The ministry must be ex alted by the people themselves. I see a man who makes $50,000 a year sell ing potatoes and another who makes $100,000 selling calico. Their travel ing salesmen are paid more than their preachers. Besides the salesmen have opportunities that may finally make them' the partners of their employers. "The potato dealer and the calico merchant and their preachers have identically the same religion, and, sup posedly, live by the same principles, but the potato man and the calico man are quite content to let the preachers pull -the load while they sit on the wagon and view the scenery." Planning the 1910 Census. Hindoo Students Would Abolish Fam ine. •One of the most unique of the many cosmopolitan clubs in Chicago is a club of eighteen young men from In dia, Ceylon and (Burrnah, which has just completed its first half year of existence. Three years ago there were not more than a dozen Hindoo students in -this country. Since then the number has grown to over 100, and a great in crease Is expected next year. The sending of students to -this country, aocordlng to Totlndra Mohan Bose, president of the club, is due -to -the outgrowth of the Swadeshi movement, a great national movement for the in dustrial development of India. The Idea of-those at the, head of the movement is that in no other way can the peo­ siderably lower the cost of the thir teenth census. A Change that is believed to he ir the interest of accuracy and complete ness will require the enumeration of population to .be made as of April 15 instead of June 1, as has been the case heretofore. The reason for this is in teresting. The population of the United States is exhibiting more and more a tendency .'to go to the seashore and the mountains and the lakes to avoid the hot weather, and it is going much earlier (than formerly. The -result is that enumerators who are set to worl June 1 are certain to And many houses deserted and .their occupants gone away for the summer. It .1s thought April 1 will be a much more satisfac tory date for this .reason. At ithat time of year the exodus to the resorts will not be be-gun. Provision will be made for 330 dis trict supervisors and there will be several thousand In -the clerical force in the census bureau establishment in Washington. The number of enumer ators will be 65,000. As already men tioned, the total force needed to do the work will approximate 70,000. The clerical force will be under civil serv ice, but it is thought to be imprac ticable to attempt to make tho enor mous force of enumerators subject to the Civil service requirements. Mr. North considers it out of the question to try .to seleot the enumerators by civil "service methods, tho objections have been raised by friends of -the civil service to the proposition that its workings should not be extended to census enumerators. It is apparent that those politicians who are hostile to the civil service see excellent op portunities in the selection of a vast body of enumerator® in the old-fash ioned way, -thru political preferment, but there is unquestionably room for doubt whether a workable civil serv ice scheme could be devised to meet the situation. A five-year census of agriculture is a feature of the Crumpacker bill. Ns doubt, congress will imake provision for such- a census. Secretary Wilson believes such a census should be had. Such Is the progress being made toy the United States' hi an agricultural way that he finds Ihls department loses Its reckonings badly if the census Is taken for agriculture but once in ten years. And In this connection, It may be said that a five-year census of population is something that the coun try is likely to come to before many years. Director North confidently ex pects it. Now, a census of manufac tures is taken every five years. The same reasoning that prompted this will hold good, Mr. North believes, for the taking of a general census every five years, Instead of every ten years. The country Is -growing toy leaps and bounds, and long -before the decennial census is taken and the results made known the preceding decennial census Is utterly out -of date and its figures of little use except in way of comparison. The mining census has been taken separately from -the -manufacturing census but the pending bill would have the two taken conjointly. The rela tions of mining and manufacturing are so -intimate that this is deemed neces sary. duced number of volumes will coA- ple be given employment which will mitigate the 'horrors of the famine. "The reason that we have begun to come over here for our sohoollng," said Dr. Bose yesterday, "is that In no other country -can -a student get so much practical technical education. In no other country can a student go to col lege and at the same itime earn his expenses and get practical experience in industrial lines. "When we get back to India we ex pect to assist In the creation of great industrial plants which will employ large numbers of -men and thus tend to prevent the grea/t losses In the fam ine times Without a system of philosophy. President Hadley told the sehlors, they would go chartless and rudderless Into life. With one they can attain charac ter. He predicted ithat thelV choice would lie between Epicureanism and Christianity, and said that these two systems were today contending in a not unequal strife. To the devotees and devotion of Epi cureanism Tr. Hadley laid the sorrow and suffering which.has been brought among civilized nations by the divorce evils, shattered physical well being, and wrecked lives to give selfish Indi viduals pleasure. "Gfentleman of .the graduating class," said Dr. Hadley, "whatever you may have learned in this place will be of little value unless it teaches you some consistent attitude toward the great problems of life with which every man must concern himself, whether ihe will or no. If you. go forth without some such philosophy of life you go int# the world rudderless and ohartles? "The great choice lies b^" Kpicureanism and 'Christianity. Jk' are the two philosophies which today contending with one another li close a -1 not unequal strife. Much there is for the moment that favors the Epicurean. The great extension of, the fields of human happiness the positive benefits to the community de rived from the exercise of commercial self-interest 'the down-fall of certain beliefs which until a few years ago were deemed essential parts of Chris tianity—all these tend to give a phil osophy of calculated selfishness an ad vantage over the appeal of personal devotion. "Yet I firmly believe that the selfish pursuit of happiness menaces alike the efficiency of our individual citizens, the stability of our institutions, and the -power of resistance of, our coun try to dangers and calamities and that the fate of the American people nay, the fate of -the whole civilized world—is bound up with the possibil ity of maintaining amid all these dif ficulties en essentially Christian phil osophy of life," NOISE AS CAUSE OF INSANITY. Prof. Rubner, of the University of Berlin, has just invented a registering apparatus which enables one to calcu late the number of noise waves which strike upon the ear in any given per iod. The new apparatus invented by Rub ner proves beyond question that the prolonged labor—it is none the less existent, tho we are frequently uncon scious of it—to which the acoustic nerve is subjected, in large cities or in large establishments, has the effect, ultimately, of paralyzing its efficiency, and, consequently, of creating a breach in the intellectual center which, as far as the brain is concerned, may be the beginning of cerebral dissolution. Rubner points the moral of vestigation by showing that insanity lsj rare among the inhabitants ately sized country towns. says, greatest In cities and in pr solitudes. On the principle o" identity of countries," according gel, continuous existence In a tpan^pt*. like silence would have as bad an feet upon the brain as the pandemonSc al noises of a vast city, and to *i© cause is attributed the fact tha£ townsmen lose their way in th»^wijpj erness, the terrible silence is the first reason of their invariably being found in a state of chattering insanity by their rescuers. Dr. Th. Lessing, of Munich, has also undertaken the study of noises and tfie effect of them in shortening human life by a process of simple attrition or wearing away of nerve tissue. He Writ.

TV :T -1 Surprising His Friends by His Strong Management of Political Affairs CANDIDATE WAS MISJUDGED Knows How to Meet and to Handle People Republicans Have Chance to 1\1ake Inroads in the Solid South —Middle West the Great Battle ground. (Special Washington Correspondence) Washington, July 10.—Secretary Taft is going about the business of getting the campaign under way in a fashion that threatens to convince many of those who have criticized him as a poor pol itician that after all they are mis taken. Politicians vary In their meth ods Just as lawyers do. Mr. Taft is not a politician of the kind that Mr. (Roosovelt is. hut this does not alter the fact that he has shown extraordin ary ability in the art of handling men and securing their co-operation on more than one .trying and difficult oc casion. He has done this in Panama, in Cuba, In the Philippines and else where, and there Is no reason so far as yet appears why he should not iprove as masterful In the polttloal field as he has in others. No one can deny that Mr. Taft pos sesses diplomatic ability of a high or der. He does not use either .the "big stick" or any weapon of that sort habitually. iBut those that know him best know that he is capable of swinging a olub as effectively as any one. His disposition, however, is to pacify and conciliate. In this he re sembles McKlnley rather than Roose velt. Taft Has Been Misjudged. IMr. Taft has not yet afforded the country much opportunity to gauge him as a politician. But it can be said that ithe Impression that 1s being fonmed among politicians in Washing ton, where politicians are more num erous than anywhere else in the United States, is that .many have misjudged hfrn and misread him In respect to his capacity for ipolltlcs. His disposition to i4a-oh out to all parts of the coun try and take the leaders Into his con fidence and secure their advice and counsel is loolted on as indicating .that he Is not going into the campaign blindly. His friends say that there is much misunderstanding as to the part Mr. .Taft .played In his own pre conventlon campaign, and that he was at all times in close touch with what was going on and was giving direction to things to a much greater extent than many suppose. Then, he was hamperpd by having on his shoulders the enormous responsibilities of the of fice of secretary of war. But now that 'he has no official cares, he will give unremitting attention to oampaign matters from now on to 'November, save when he Is recuperating, and It may be safely predicted that he will In no small degree be his own cam paign manager. In the last week, since Mr. Taft left the war department, he has been meet ing leaders from all over the country and has been doing a lot of talking with them. He has not by any means been confining these talks to the chair manship. He Is inquiring minutely into conditions In different states and is getting an Idea of what efforts will be necessary In one section and another. He has called In many men who did not support him for the nomination and some who have maintained a sullen at titude since the convention. He is smoothing out the wrinkles left by the happenings at Chicago wherever it ap pears needful to do so and is getting the republican maohine in good work ing order. Already there are numerous signs that his efforts to bring about peace and harnaony in various quarters are having their* effect and that long •before November the republican lead ers in every state will have their coats off and will be working for the success of the ticket Knows How to Meet People. Mr. Taft knows how to meet people and please them and It is certain that 3. r: r* ft •^.'•XA'-K.T-'-. Thnw-ltepilto Iffljm, |ulg 10 J9J3 •••••-V^.Vfrr 9-..'. this is an attribute of the successful politician that can not be overlooked. He has this faculty .to a rare degree. He realizes the importance of co-oper ation on the part of all republican hands in the campaign this summer and fall and when he meets a man and talks to him he is quite apt to get him impressed with the Importance of giving genuine aid to the co-operative movement. He believes ithe republicans are certain to defeat Mr. Bryan but he will not be satisfied by any means with a victory won on a narrow margin. He wants the victory to be decisive and especially he wants to break into the solid south. He believes there is excel lent prospect for accomplishing this and when he speaks of the solid south he does not include Kentucky and Mis souri. Tennessee and North Carolina are .two of the southern states where the republicans are thought to have a good fighting chance. Tennessee is1 good fighting ground for the republicans, not, as many suppose, because of the appointment of Gen. Luke E. Wright, but because of the extreme bitterness aroused between the Patterson and Carmack wings of the democratic party in the fight over the governship. No small part of Mr. Taft's support for the nomination came from the south and If he could succeed in ^breaking into It In genuine fashion he would be deeply gratified for many reasons. Middle West is Battle Ground. Mr. Taft looks on the middle west as the real battle ground of the cam paign, as, indeed, do most politicians. 1-1 is going to give that par.t of the country much attention. It Is true thit he will not make many stump speeches but he will have In mind in what he says and writes tihe senti ments of the middlo .west voters. Thus, he will speak out on tariff revision in plainer terms than the platform does and will leave no doubt that he is for a genuine revision downward, despite the position taken by the Am erican Protective Tariff League that the platform means revision upwards Of. course, New York will be a great battle ground. But outside of New York, the states of Ohio, Indiana, Illi nois, Iowa, Nebraska, Wisconsin, Kan sas and Missouri will be given special attention. This does not mean that other states will he neglected but it is realized the democrats will put for ward tremendous efforts in these states and that such efforts Will have to be counteracted. Indiana, of all these states, Is, perhaps, as doubtful as any, tho the state ticket put up by the re publicans Is considered more In doubt than Is the national ticket and espe cially if Mr. Taft succeeds, as he seems likely to, in soothing the feel ings of the Indiana republican leaders which were slightly ruffled at Chica go. It appears likely the Chicago headquarters of the national commit tee will become more important in this campaign than the eastern headquar ters. In the different western states named is a powerful Roosevelt follow ing, voters of radical tendencies, who' will vote for whatever man they feel will best carry forward the Roosevelt program. Mr. Taft appreciates that he cannot afford 'to lose the confidence of these voters and his talks with lead ing politicians In recent days will be of much value to him as giving him an Index to public sentiment In the chief seat of .war .between now and Novem ber. FEARS PROHIBITION WANE Head of Good Templars Sees Danger of Relapse. Milwaukee, WMs., July 7.—That the American reform wave is an unstable burst of enthusiasm, and that the American prohibition wave is backed by a public that,does not: altogether understand it, and is to be looked upon with suspicion, is the declaration of Edvard Wavrinsky, international head of the Independent Order of Good Templars, who is lecturing in Milwau kee during a tour of the world. Mr. Wavrinsky is a Swede, who is thoroughly convinced that the order of which he is the head is slowly but surely wiping out the liquor interests, but he says the success of an anti liquor crusade depends entirely upon the extent to which people are educat ed to leave liquor alone, not to the passing of radical anti-saloon laws. His order has been fighting liquor from the days of the Pilgrim fathers, but he has this to say about the pres ent prohibition wave: "The lodges of our order look with distrust upon the political revolution that Is being preached by reformers. And tho their object is the elimination of the liquor traffic, they look with suspicion upon the so-called prohibi tion wave that is sweeping the country. That wave is unstable in nature. 'In a frantic sweep it has shut down the saloon, has thrown out of business tip 4 1 i. hundreds of people and has clutched at the liquor interests and there is dan ger of a relapse—a falling back to old conditions when tho American notion arises to the lack of proper foundation of the movement. "The reform of the world is largely In the hands of the Scandinavian peo ple. It is not a senseless overthrowing of old customs. It 1s not a revolution ary movement, but an evolutionary one. The Scandinavian people are preaching the doctrine of education." WEAVER WEDDED FIFTY YEARS. Prominent Politician to Celebrate Golden Anniversary Monday. Colfax, July 7.—The fiftieth anni versary of the marriage of Genera and Mrs. James B. Wearer of Col fax, which occurred at Keosauqua, la. July 12, 1858, will be celebrated by them at their home Monday, July 13 On account of the fact that the anni versary day comes on Sunday the re ception will be held a day later.

IP ATTEMPT TO BLACKMAIL MAYOR Maorae, of Council Bluffs, Recipient of Demand for $5,000 or His Life. Council Bluffs, July 7.—The particu lars of a bold attempt which was made last week to blackmail formeir Mayor Macrae out of $5,000 and the result were made' public today. Efforts to trap the would-be blackmailers have been unsuccessful. On the morning of July 1 Dr. Macrae reclved thru .the mall an almost Il legible letter, which read as follows: "Mr. Macrae: 1 am contract to kill you, hut If you will pay us $5,000 In gfrld, all in one package, In dat pipe in this corner 'back the sign at Broadway and Oak street, 11 o'clock Wednesday night, the 1 of July, it will safe you life. "No address." The doctor .was at first inclined to treat the matter as a joke, but later decided to Investigate and reported it to Chief of Police Richmond, who de tailed defectives to shadow the place and await developments. Conditions as told in the letter were cfound at the place described and a decoy bag made as nearly to look as tho it contained $5,000 In gold was taken and de posited as demanded. Even the 11 o'clock at night part of the demand was complied with, .the doctor going to the place carrying a long and ugly looking gun in one hand as he de posited the bag In the .pipe, as told to do. There was nothing doing, how ever nor did anything ocour during the long night vigil which Dr. Macrae and two companions kept from a secluded spot, where, .wrapped In blankets, they watched for their roan. Detectives also had the place under watch, but the bag of "phoney" money .was not dis turbed. The officers have no cdue to the au thorship of the letter. Seems Probable. They were looking at that celebra.t ed sta'tue, the Venus of Mllo. "But where are the hands?" asked Mrs. Pneurltch. "They were laid off, madam." ex plained the polite attendant, "in con sequence of a disastrous break In mar ble stock." •/'V "*"i 5,1 tc S •o mi l! st* j-Str nil hi (f Zh I J*. jjp- t3*' a Bv t~ ""V" 14 i" *x v. /y, -H aflKiSS sy- 1 \J'* '11 ,j A 4 J* It it "Died of Pneumonia" Is never written of those who cure coughs and colds with Dr. King's New Discovery.

The statements from the Marshal Telephone Company! in all of their communications and paid advertise- ntents are either misleading or directly false. In their1 half page ad in the T.-R.

Tlurt. the Iowa (Bell) Telephone Company own at least 51 per cent, of the stock of the Marshall Telephone Company there Is no question, and the further "fact ithat George E. MaFarland, general mana ger and vice president of the Iowa Tel ephone Company, is a director. Is con clusive that the Marshall Telephone Company has sold out. The fact the Marshalltown crowd has a contract with the majority stook holders In which the local control is left in Marshalltown, augers no good for the public because such a contract is not good. It would take the Bell people just about five minutes to If by any chance the Postal Tele graph office was moved Into the West ern Union at Marshalltown and the telegraph competition thus abolished there would be an awful howl.

The experience of The the past in all localities shows that the Bell Company generally hands it to the public whenever they get a chance. The rates being fixed by ordinance Is no more binding on the Marshall Telephone Company than it ie on the Bell Company. They were doing busi ness before the. new law in 1837 and a supreme court decision later upheld that all telephone companies doing business before the change In the law had the right to use the streets and alleys of all cities and towns under the state law and without interference by any city council, etc., etc. The Bell people as well as the Marshall people own a similar right In Marshalltown. Supposing the Marshall Company or dinance was binding and in the course of a couple of years they were in trenched at Marshalltown very secure ly, what would be the result? You and I know that the rates would be boosted and that if you attempted to regulate the rates as per ordinance you would immediately be informed that they were working under the Bell Com pany's franchise. lines can not remain In the Bell switchboard with Bell Coimpany con trol and be competitive, any more than the Postal wires oould in the Western Union. A sell out in Dubuque exactly sim ilar to this one occurred about sixty days ago and according to a recent re port the result was a 100 per cent in crease in the rentals July 1. Now to answer the questions asked by Mr. Bowe. Mr. Bowe directly misleads the pub lic In coin paring our rural rates with the price he charges. We f-urnl»h and keep in repair everything connected with our rural lines and give 24-hour service 365 days in the year at $12 per year. In the case of Marshalltown the farmer owns everything himself and keeps i.t in repairs and pays Mr, Howe from 15 to 50 cents per month for simplyi switching him. The only way the farmers got a chance to live at all with the Marshall Company was by threatening to buMd their own ex change. •If the automatic telephone is not practical, my boy. it Is not costing you or the people of Marshalltown a cent to find it out and I think that the fellows interested in the matter know the telephone business perhaps as well at least as yourself. When you asked that question you knew that there has been an automatic plant at Man chester for years, one at Sioux City for four or five years, and one Just completed at Omaha that makes the Bell people hire not only a wagon but a whole flock of drays to carry away their telephones displaced. You knew that there was an automatic plant at Los Angeles, Cal., of over 30,000 which practically put the Bell company out of business. If the automatic Is not practical I can't see any real reason Tor your company being so scared. Mr. Moore spent considerable time while in Chicago in January, 1908, in vestigating the automatic and told the writer that he was satisfied that it was the coming telephone system and that he would put It in at Marshalltown if It did not cost so much. He further said that 'he could not afford to throw away his present plant in order to in stall this system. iNow that the Bell company has bought the junk -pile and left the ter ritory free to the Independents, you may rest assured Chat the latest, up to-date apparatus, automatic, all cable, •underground plant wito land in its own public service (something they never had there) at your present rates and better long distance service than the Bell company can possibly give them. "Now, (Mr. Bowe. instead of doing your besrt to mislead the public, sup pose you try being honest with them once and answer the Allowing ques tional Doesn't the Iowa (Bell) Telephone Company own at least 61 per cent of the stock of the Marshall Telephone Company? Tell us exactly what per cent. If the Bell folks Instructed you to cut off our toll lines, wouldn't you do it? Before you heard that we were go ing to rebuild Marshalltown didn't you tell a certain rural company, that you had been switching for $60 per year, that their next year rate would be $175? When the consolidation was made wasn't it your intention to hand it to the farmers? In fact, didn't you make the statement that you would now get even with the farmers? Is It not a fact that the farmers have threatened several times to build their own plant In Marshalltown be cause your company would noit give them a square deal? Is it not a fact that Mr. Moore has always refused to build any copper toll lines, claiming iron wire was just as good? iNow answer these questions or shut up. E. H. MARiTIN.

Signs Full Confession at Des Moines, and Implicates Sh^rcliife SH ERCLIFFE SAYS NOT TRUE Famous Iowa Convict, Former Mel­ bourne Man, Denies That He Even Knows Bali, and Say* He Knows Nothing of Northern Pacific Robbery —Shercliffe Will Not Believe Wife Would Elope. "0 •J "t :?'f 5t i' —r UK— 't ®@®s)®® ®®(S©®®® Ijeadville, Col., July 10—"I would not believe my wife would elope if I were to see it," said Sherman Morris, alias Shercliffe, when a telegram announcing the arrest of Owen Ball and Mrs. Shercliffe was shown him. Morris denied knowing Ball, and also any knowledge of the Northern Pa cific train robbery. Morris was cool and perfectly self-possessed when he made this emphatic de nial. Just before departing for Minneapolis this forenoon, in custody of Detective McFetridge, Owen Ball signed a full and complete confession «f the North ern Pacific train robbery, and agreed, over his signature, to turn state's evi dence against Shercliffe. Detective Mc Fetridge says that extradition papers for Shercliffe will be applied for at once thru the office of the governor of Minnesota to the governor of Colorado. According, to detectives at Des Moines, who have been working on the case. Owen Ball, the youthful crimi nal of this city, has confessed to the robbing of the Northern Pacific train, within the suburbs of Minneapolis, on the night of April 16. Ball's confession is said -.o be complete, and he says that he and Frank Sheraiifte did the jo:) together, ,i Ball is also said to have confessed to the robbery of the drug store in the outskirts of St. Paul on the night be fore, and in this he was likewise the partner of Shercliffe. Ball has promised Special Agent McFetrldge, of the Northern Pacific secret service, that he will conduct the officers to the place where he and Shercliffe "planted" the loot, which consisted principally of watches and jewelry taken from pas sengers on board the train. Woman Gives Up the Deal. As stated in the T.-R. Thursday evening, it was thru Mrs. Shercliffe that the detectives got their line where by they wrung the confession from Ball. With.the statement of Mrs. Sher cliffe, that her husband and Ball held up the train. Ball was taken to the detective headquarters and McFet rldge was introduced to him as an of ficer from Kansas City who was look ing for a thief who had stolen a large quantity of diamonds The Kansas City case was but a myth, but Ball was anxious to prove an alibi, and said that he was in Minneapolis at the time the Kansas City robbery was committed. The detectives then, gradually drew the confession from him. To the police of this city, when Ball returned here after an absence of a few months ago, he said that he had been in Minneapolis. Wasting 8ympathy on,Mrs. Morris It is evident that much sympathy has been wasted on Mrs. Sherman Morris in Des Moines. Papers this morning were filled with stories of how she had been inviegeled by Ball into coming to Marshalltown on the pre tense of finding work and a home for her two babies. Mrs. Morris is also purported to have been '"warned"' by Mrs. J. H. Ball, mother of Owen Ball, to the effect that "her son was a bad man, and that she (Mrs. Morris) had better have nothing to do, with him. Mrs. Morris is also quoted as saying that Mrs. Ball had told her Owen had been into so much trouble that she no longer had any tears for him. Mrs. Morris also denied having written any letters to Ball. Mother Denies Story as Rot. Mrs. Ball, when seen .by the T.-R. to day, denied that she had made any statements of such a nature to Mrs. Morris, or whoever the woman may have been .who was at her home. "When the woman came here she told me her name was Mrs. May Daniels, of Council Bluffs, 84 friend of Owen, who had loaned him imoney and was here to make some arrangements to get what was due her. She said she was a widow. I did not know she was Mrs. Morris, or Mrs. Shercliffe, or whatever her name may .be, until she as arrested at my home at midnight Wednesday." Statements at Variance Mrs. Morris* statements to the Des Moines detectives and newspaper re porters do not agree very well. After telling the re-porters that she did not love Ball, had never written 'him any letters, and was inviegeled into com ing to this city, she is aaid to have confessed to the detectives that she in tended running away with Ball, de claring that she knew Shercliffe to be "down and out," and that the few re maining years of his life would prob ably be spent behind prison walls.

Mr. and Mrs. Myers Married Over Year Instead of Few Months. Mr. and Mrs. Charles Myers, of this city, whose wedding was announced lasst week, have kept their secret well, and instead of having been married since June of this year, they have been man and wife since June, 1907. The wedding was not only a surprise to the young man's parents in this city, it seems, but to the bride's parents at Anna, 111., who were apprised of their daughter's marriage but three months ago. The Anna Talk of July 3, a weekly paper published in the bride's home town, prints the following relative to tho announcement of the marriage: "The announcement of the marriage of Miss Rose Roy, of this city, to Mr. Charles A. Myers, of Marshalltown, la., will be received with great sur prise by many of her friends. Indeed, her parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Roy, knew nothing of it until three months ago, altho the ceremony was per formed over a year ago, on June 22, 1907, in Christ's Episcopal church at Waukegan, by the Rev. William E. Toll. "The bride of a year ago Is an ac complished young woman and popular with her associates in Anna. Her hus band Is a traveling salesman for a firm In Marshalltown, at which place they will live. They left Tuesday morning for Chicago for a few days' visit with friends before going to Mar shalltown. Mr. Myers came to Anna Sunday." MOSSMAN HAS A "COMER."

Kathan says she is one of the best horses he has ever 'handled, and that is saying a good deal, for Kathan is no spring chicken. The mare will start next week at Osage, and' is e'n tered on this circuit.

Steady Tone in Other Offerings ol Meagre Cattle Receipts Today HOGS ADVANCE 5 TO 10 TODAY There Was Good Demand From Ship per# in That Market, and Packers Also Were Fair Purchasers—Lambs in Best Demand in That Market, But Sheep Also Steady. Chicago, July 10—Cattle—The major portion of the meagre receipts consist ed of Texans. No prime native steers were on sale. Butcher stuff was strong, and other stuff was steady. Choice steers were scarce and there was not much demand for the com mon and medium. Eastern buyers are behind their last week's purchases, tout still they have bought a fair pro portion of the receipts. All buyers are complaining of the difficulty in getting rid of the beef because the public thinks it is too high. The market stands .worse than a week ago for the bulk of cattle below choice. A good many Texas cattle were received this week and they helped to weaken the market for the common to medium class of natives. •Exporters were not buying to amount to anything yesterday, and, in fact, afll this week their orders have been light. The London market has taken a hard tumble lately and that has discouraged operations from this side. Hogs. On good demand from shippers, prices advanced 5@10 cents. Packers were fair purchasers., When good hogs show the most •decline and the less favored istuff is more firm it is a sure Indication that quality is on hand In good quan tity. Receipts have kept up liberally which is an index of the fact that hogs accumulated during corn plowing are still coming. All the hogs may not be marketed from that stock for some days. The buying power has come mostly from brokers who act for the packing interest and some short sales are believed to have been covered lately. Sheep. Sheep were steady, lambs being In the best demand. Supply here is running heavier 'than last week, but the main trouble is in the east. New York, dumping ground of the country, has been demoralized by southern and local stuff. Maine lambs have been dumped into that market in unexpected numbers, and when good lambs can be bought there at $6.50 there is little demand from that source here. Southern lambs ^are flocking east and adding to the demoralization.Some of them come direct to packers here and do not help any. The principal de pressing influence, however, has been lack of demand for dressed mutton in the east. Chicago Livestook. t- Chicago, July 10.

VALUABLE CLAY DEPOSIT. Hampton Gratified by Discovery Excellent Quality of the Soil. Special to Times-Republican. of of Hampton, July 10.—The hopes Hampton people that a factory of suf ficient proportion to be worthy the. name might be a reality here, are now revived by the discovery of a splendid quality of clay, on the north bank of Spring creek, just east of the Iowa Central track. This deposit is said to be of the Wisconsin drift variety, to be entirely free from limestone and rock, and con tains very little sand. Best of all, it is located very near the surface. Samples of the clay have been sent to a brick and tile factory to be made up, and Hampton people will soon have an opportunity to see what can be made of the deposit. The location of this clay has 'beep known for over a year, and at one time more or less ef fort was made to put it to some good use, but it failed of accomplishments, at that time. Strong hopes are now en tertained that more substantial results will follow the present investigation. PLANNING FOR CARNIVAL. Cedar Falls May Also Make That Week a Home-Coming Occasion. Special to Times-Republican. It has been suggested that this time, the week beginning August 17, should be made a home-coming occasion, and that an invitation be sent to old resi dents and those interested in Cedar Falls. Rev. Mueller, the newly appointed M. E. pastor for the church at this place, has arrived, and will assume active work at once. Arrangements are being made for open air meetings on Sunday evenings during the months of August and September, on Mr. Feist's lawn. The meeting proved to be a success last summer, and all desired the meetings to be held in su'ch a manner again. Nell Winterfield, whq has been In a hospital to undergo an operation for appendicitis in Des Moines, has suc cessfully recovered and is again at his home. F. E. De Marsha entertained the town, and vicinity Monday evening with a splendid array of fireworks. They were to be here the Fourth, but were delayed. Haying has begun, land the farmers report that crop as being a good one. The early oats is ripening, and pros pects are for a good crop. Mr. Hiller, the old butcher, who has run a shop here for many years, has sold his shop to John Tapps. Posses sion wias given at once. Mr. Hiller will retire from active business, and take a much needed rest. He with his family, will move Into tlhe house formerly oc cupied by Arthur Samson.

Denver,''July 9.—In nominating Will iam Jennings Bryan as a candidate for the presidency for the third time, Hon. I at a id in a "The democratic party has many dis tinguished men who might be chosen as our standard bearer, but it has one man who above all others possesses the necessary qualifications and is em inently titted for this leadership. "He is a man whose nomination will leave no doubt as to where our party stands on every public question. His genius for statecraft is shown by the constructive work he has done in pro posing reforms, and by the ability with which he has fortified his position. But we may go farther. "A few months since, he visited the principal nations of the world. He came In contact with the leading minds of Christendom, and the world abroad recognized his greatness and paid him that tribute justly due to men of high attainments. ,v Cedar Falls, July 10.—Cedar Falls is to have a carnival.

One survey was made thru Sherman, striking this town from the northeast corner, and the other has been made along the Northwestern railway track, coming in from Hub bard. iTpecIal to Times-Republican. Radcliffe, July 10.—Several surveys for the new in.terurban road have been made to Radcliffe the past week from ^ieti,0(]s before his statesmanship was recognized by the nation and he has "In the most* distinguished peace convention that has assembled in re cent years, he proposed a plan which, if adopted, would prove more effect ive than any arbitration treaty that has yet been made, and by his influ ence he secured its approval by the representatives of the twenty-six lead- termined? Even his political opponents now admit that he is. "I have had a close personal and po litical acquaintance with this man, whose name Nebraska presents, since he entered political life. I can testify from observation as to his political conduct before he was known to fame. He was honest, brave and unyielding then he is honest, brave and unyield ing now. "Honesty is ihherent in Mm. He was a« honest lawyer before he entered politics. He was honeyt in his political been honest tihruout his political ca reer. "His convictions have been his po litical creed. He has impressed these convictions upon others, not by dicta-, tlon, but by arguments addressed to the judgment and the conscience. "Believing in the ultimate triumph of the right, he has never examined from the standpoint of I expediency. He has never inquired whether a political principle was pop ular it has been sufficient for him to •believe that it was right. "He has been a consistent champion of the reserved rights of the states. tal faculties were not as well developed as his mustache. During our to his fellowmen has been abundantly brief stay on earth we have seen many shown. His refusal to surrender his just such young men ooid in death. We have seen the atheist at re-st in his casket, but before being consigned to their last resting place they have all been carried thru the doors of a church and had prayers said for the'm. This young man could scoff at religion in his strength and beauty of health, but if the dark angel should get after him ihe would instinctively regret what he had said and look into the future with fear and trembling. When one stands before the open door of eternity his desire to scoff a re ligion vanishes. We admit that there are bad men in church, but even these black sheep in the flock might be blacker if they were outside. No young man, or old either, should con demn the noble efforts the army of christian men and women are making toward bettering the oondition of things, and whether we attend church or. not but few of us would desire to live in a community where there was no ohurch. He favored election of senators by di rect vote before the house of represen tatives ever acted favorably upon the subject. He championed tariff reform when the west was the hot-bed of protection. "He favored an income tax before the income tax law was written. He attacked the trusts when republican leaders were denying ithat any trusts existed. He advocated railroad regu lation before the crusade against re bates and discrimination began. '"He has always been the friend of labor, and was among the first to urge conciliation between labor and capital He began to oppose government by in junction more "than a decade ago. He announced ihls opposition to imperial ism before any other man of promin ence had expressed himself on the sub ject, and without waiting to see whether It would be popular. "When a Wall street panic burst upon us a few months ago, he prompt ly .proposed as a remedy, the guaran tee or bank deposits, and so popular has this plan become that It Is today a national issue, and, supported by the masses of the people. iHe has long advocated legislation which will se cure publicity as to campaign contribu tions. "He believes In peace—in universal Christian peace. He believes the des tiny of nations should be determined not by wars but by applying the prin ciples of justice and humanity. "Tho these principles have met with uncomprising opposition from the special interests, he has remained true to tihe cause of the people. With clear vision and with unfaltering trust, see ing and knowing the truth, he has nev er lost faith in its final victory. "Thru years of unparalleled political warfare, his loyalty to his ideals and convictions, tho subjected to abuse, denunciation and vindictive opposition such as few public men in all history have been compelled to withstand, Is ample proof of his superb courage. "His career proves that successful leadership is determined by the suc cess or failure of great principles rather than by election to high of fice. "We have met to plan the campaign and to commission the commander un der whom the masses will enlist We are not here in response to the voice of expediency: neither political bosses nor "corporate masters sent us here. We are here at the summons of the rank and file of that political organiza tion which is the special defender of the rights of the common people. "Wo axe here representing all that i? best in the traditions c& our party we feel again that spirit Ithat animated the democracy in the of Jefferson and Jackson. "The voters have spoken, and we aa- -I--. semble to give expression wf their will. The voice for the third time calls Ne braska's favorite son to be the stand ard bearer of his party in this gigantic contest. "Nebraska's democracy which saw in him, when a young man, Che signs of promise, places In nomination ae the standard bearer of our party the man who in the thrilling days of '96 and 1900 bore the battle-scarred ban ner of democracy with fame as un sullied and fidelity as spotless as the crusaders of old.

PREACHER HiRES A BAND Waterloo Minister to Have Much Mu sic at Services. Waterloo, July 10.—The Rev. Walter H. Rollins of the new Congregational church In Waterloo, has made a de parture from the .usual methods of in ducing big congregations during the hot weather by engaging the Cedar Falls concert band of forty pieces to give concerts each Sunday evening during the rest of July.

(Puck) Tho the beasts at length declared themselves a republic, it was looked upon as being a matter of form most ly. Republics had become the style, and the beasts wish to seem odd., that was all. They deposed their king, the lion, but in the expectation that he would still be chosen to the chief mag istracy, under the name of president for his superior fitness was no de nied. Yet the. president, under the new order, was the money, because he was such a sharp fellow. The second president, tho the elec torate took the precaution to fortify their polity by several reforms, was the jackal, because he was not too scrupulous. And the third president, despite the fact that the franchise was much re stricted and the Australian system of voting Instituted, was the snake, "cause he could crawl.
