A presidential nominee always represents in his own person his party's attitude toward public policies in the campaign as much as the platform itself. This is more than usually the case with a man like IJryan, who has stood before the country continuously for twelve years as the exponent of a certain mood and a certain tendency in American politics. As to what that mood and that tendency are nobody is ignorant. We know them by tlconomic school of thinking in which they took their root, and also by the enemies tney nave raised up within Mr. Bryan s own party Whatever Grover Cleveland and John G. Carlisle and Thomas F Bayard stood for, the Bryan pol' rcies oppose. Knowing, then, the Bryan at jhtude toward economic truth and financial experience and thrifty industry and th sanctity of the courts, the Democrat who proposes to nominate Bryan and yet enunciate a platform in con soance with the principles of our history and the facts of human experience, demonstrates himself thereby a coward and a knave coward because, know in Bryan to be" wrong he, never theless, will bow the knee; knave because he offers the country the promise of one thing in case of Democratic success, when he perfectly well knows that Demo cratic success means anothei thing. So we shall .have Bryan on a Bryan platform a result credit able alike. to Bryan's steadfast-, ness to the veracity of his oppon ents and to our common honesty. It is much better so. The tail goes with the hide. As Mr. Bry an pours, forth his well-known and effectually repudiated views throughout t.ie . campaign, we shall at least have the satisfacs tion of knowing that those who planned to set up a platform at variance with those views perceived in time the folly and mischief, as well as the impossibility of such a course.

Lights of the Denver Convention Alton B. Parker, rebuffed in the convention in an attempt to "-present his resolutions of respect for the memory of Grover Cleveland, received the" b!ov which stripped him of every vestige ot the glory which he held .in 1901 as the titular head of . the Democratic party. ' William Jennings Bryan wo:i every essential point in the con vention preliminaries, and indications were that no name but his would be placed 'befoie the convention for the presidential nomination. Temporary Chairman Bell ' made the keynote speech before the convention, laying especial stress on the necessity for a clearcut anti-injunction plank which will limit the power of the courts. Mayor Tom Johnson of Cleveland and Daniel Camoau of Michigan, favorites of Bryan, were ' turned down for re-election as national committteemen from their respective states. Foes of Bryan issued a statement declaring they had 3IG delegates And could prevent the nomination of Bryan on the first ballot.

The State Board of Health at its meeting Wednesday consider ed sanitary surveys that have been made of manv schoolhouses over the state against which com plaints have been filed and investigated under the direction of Dr. J. N. Hurry, secretary of the board. The board will consider conditions at the following schoolhouses: District School No. 7, Harrison Town-ship, Fayette County; District SchoolXo. 8, Washington Township, Putnam vouniv; uisincr Dcnooi io. o.

Teachers Must Graduate. The state board of education has put an end to a plan which has been adopted this year by high school students who placed an odd construction on the educational law in order to begin -Niching school the year they w re graduated from high school. Tre new educational law provides that the beginning teacher shall be a graduate of a high school or its equivalent and shall have had one term of twelve weeks in a training school for teaching. .

JOHNSON IS OUT

OF THE RACE HIS MANAGER PREDICTS THAT BRYAN WILL Will ON FIRST BALLOT, BUT WILL LOSE THE ELECTION. "There is no contest, Bryan will be nominated on the first ballot in the tamest convention ever held by the Democrat party. It is too bad, because the Nebraskan is doomed to certain defeat, though doubtless his brilliant personalitv will win him a large vote." The above statement made at Denver, Colo., Sunday by Frank A. Dav. represents !the gloomy state of mind of the chairman of the Minnesota Democratic state central committee, tne man who, more than any one else, is responsible for the rapid rise in Governor John Albert Johnson of the Gopher state. Tohnson, according to Mr. Day, has absolutely no chance to win even one-third of the votes cast on the first ballot, although Minnesota will stand by the col ors and cast her first vote for the Governor. "We will do this", said Mr. Day, "just to prove how decisive our victory over the Bryan ele ment which attempted to side track the Johnson resolutions in Minnesota was. I must admit that the Governor entered tho race too late to make a good showing in the convention. Mr. Bryan will be the absolute dicta tor of the convention body. Cvery resolution which he favors certainly vill be passed and no measure will slip through with out his O. K. He wil have the power to cnoose ins running mate, but let me say that Gover nor Johnson under no circumstances will accept second place on the ticket. The Governor probably will retire from office for several years and devote himself to the lecture plaftonn. In this way he not only can make a good living, but will become known throughout the country. "Mr. Bryan beyond all doubt, will make a brilliant personal fight for the presidency next fall, but conditions seem to be againXt him. Many men who love the Nebraskan for his personal qualifications will not vote for him because they fear his policies. To illustrate, one man came to me and expressed his admiration for Bryan in the following way: ".'I love, respect, almost adore the great commoner, and would lay down my life for him, but when it comes to the election next fall well, I own $10,000 worth of stock in several corpor ations which Mr. Bryan would destrov.

Plow Manufacturer Financing Air Line Railway. Theodore P. Shonts, president of the Clover Leaf railroad, ami Joseph T. Oliver, head of Ahe mammoth Oliver plow works at South Bend, Ind., were Wednesday declared by Attorney Lemuel Darrow of LaPorte, attorney for the Chicago-New York Electric Air line, to be the fountain heads of the syndicate formed in Chicago Tuesday for the comple'iion of the air line from LaPorte to Gary, and of the Gary & Interurban railway from Gary to Chicago. Three other millionaires comprise the personnel of the syndicate, ami work will be commenced immediately upon the completion of the two interurban systems. Sufficient capital stock of the Air Line company has been subscribed . for by the syndicate to cover the expense of completing the road. It is predicted that cars will be in operation between LaPorte and Chicago by April 1. NEW PHASE OF THE BLIND TIGER MEASURE. Wayne County Courts Will be Called Upon to Straighten . Out a Tangle. A new phase of the blind tiger law has developed in Wayne county and within a week likely will be presented to the courts for decision. Last tweek three saloons in Hagerstoavn ceased business as a result of a blanket remonstrance which makes Jef ferson township dry for two years. One oi the saloon keepers had a very large stock of whisky and wines on hand which he could not dispose of in the rush unless he did so at a loss. He had stored the liquors in a room over the saloon and will convert- the saloon room into a cigar store and biliare! parlor. The former saioon man claims the right to store the liquors in a room which will be kept locked and not used for business pur poses of any kind. The authorit ies assert that if liquors are kept in the building a violation of the blind tiger law results. Prose cutor Jessup, it is asserted, expects to take action immediately holding the opinion that liquor can not be legally stored in a building unless some form of li cense is held.

Com missioner Dowling speaking, hold (that when a claim for time bevond the "free time" Is made by ahippcr and the claim is not alio weil by the car service managerjnl an appeal is to be taken to tftC division superintendent or the local freight agent, the matter Qalf be presented bv the car service manager, and not by the shipfSr. The car service rule lrcrelr savs that when an appeal is taton.the matter shall be oreto the local freight agent r the diviJHon superintendent, and a&As not say by whom it hall presented. This ruling is of importance because if it werd left to the ship)er to oresent theaoneal the mat ter rnizfet he delayed and the carier (satrer injustice. l ne car service rule says that when the car service manager rules against he shipper, which makes a claim or additional time beyond the tree time," the charges and pen alties shall not be enforced by the carfier against the shipper wv.Ul the matter has been fully investigated bv the division sup erintendent or local freight agent IF the matter of presenting the lent or local freight agent were left to the shipper, the case might be greatly delayed, and, mean while, the penalties against the shipper could not be enforced. The ruling was given by Com missioner Dowling at the request of the Lafayette Manufacturers' md Shippers Association. ' l ' RIFLE TEAM BEGINS WORK.

OPEN ROADS

CONVENTION AUTOISTS, GRANGERS AND ROAD, MAKERS REPRESENTED IN BIG MEETING AT BUFFALO $50,000,000 IS SOUGHT. The American Automobile As sociation, the governing body, composed of twenty-four State associations, nearly two hundred clubs, and representing a mem bership of about 20,000 motor ists, began its first open session at Buffalo, Tuesday. The Na tional Grange, with its member ship of 1,000,000, is represented on an equal basis. Representatives of the American Road Mak ers' Association are also taking part in the conference. The object of the convention is to educate the public on the question of good roads and, according to President Hotchkiss, of the American Automobile As sociation, whether the individual or the association which takes; part favors Federal or State aid makes no difference. He calls attention particularly to the fact that while the American Automobile association originally called the convention, the National Grange, whic his backing application for a -$50,000,000 appropriation by the Federal Govern ment, and the American Road Makers' Association, which is particularly interested in securing Mate aid lor good roads are both participating in the convention. BREAK WITH VENEZUELA Rupture of Diplomatic Relations More Complete Than Believed. The break in diplomatic relations between the United States and Venezuela, which resulted in the withdrawal of Jacob Sleeper, the American charge d andres, from the Venezuelan capital, is far more complete than was at first generally believed. The full text of diplomatic notes which passed between Mr. Sleeper and Dr. Jose de Jesus Paul, the Ven ezuelan Minister of Foreign Af faires, subsequent to the withdrawal of Mr. Sleeper, indicates that not only are the friendly re lations interrupted, but complete ly severed. In his letter notifying the For efgn ynister of his intention to leave the Venezuelan capital, Mr. Sleeper wrote that in view of the Venezuelan government's per sitent refusal to cive reVlress for the "governmental action by which all American interests have been destroyed or confiscat ed, and 4,in view of the tone and character of the communica tions received from the Vcnczue Ian government," he believed that "the further presence in Caracas of diplomatic representatives of the United States subserved no useful purpose." Dr. Paul's reply to this com munication was made in the same tone which characterized previous communications made to the American representatives. It de clared that President Roosevelt has persisted in asking redress for American interests and indi viduals without any justice and right, and that Venezuela was not blamable if it did not permit the nation to be "wrested of its rights." A request for "safe con duct," made in Mr. Sleeper's let ter was refused on the ground that as no state of war existed, the Venezuelan government did not consider it necessary or fit to grant it.

The young negress whom Mar shal Jacoby was cautioned to be on the lookout for must have been a desperate character, according to the following item taken from Tuesday's Lake -County Times: "Edna Lucas, a 17-year-old colored girl, met Joseph Clark, a well known Gary painter and decorator, on Broadway last evening, had a quarrel with him, borrowed a stiletto from a burly negro who accompanied her and then after repeatedly plunging the knife into his body while the negro held off the crowd, ran to the home of a friend, dressed in men's clothing and escaped. "It was the most sensational stabbing affair that has ever tak en place in this section of the country. The fact that the girl was so young, that her victim was a white man, that the assault was premeditated, that the negro helped her and finally that she ami the negro escaped after she has disguised herself in men's clothes makes the .case a unique one in the police annals of Gary." SAVE CRIMINALS? IMPOSSIBLE. Charles W. Peters Recommends Extermination as Last Resort "For the criminal's first offense probation. For a similar offense sent to a farm colony ami put to work out of doors, on honor and not under guards or within stockades. For repeated offenses after that extermination. Such is the system for the disposal of incorrigable criminals that was advocated by Charles W. Peters, chief deputy sheriff of Cook county, in an address Tuesday at the annual convention of the Interstate Sheriffs' Asociation in Minneapolis. Mr. Peters is vice president of the association. In the more than twenty years of his experience .in handling criminals Mr. Peters said he had known personally only one genuine case of reformation. He did not recommend any specific plan for putting the habitual criminals out of the way. "A large number of well-mean-ing, but misguided, inexperienced, theoretical reformers," he said, "waste a lot of time and symapthy on hardened criminals. It would be far better and a great deal nore good would be accomplished for humanity if that class of reformers would devote some of their time and energy to assisting the j)oor fellow who, through improvidence or misfortune, has fallen by the way and is struggling to keep out of jail, instead of the wretch who is there by his own choice." The speaker cited several Chicago instances of where criminals had returned to evil ways immediately after their release from prison. "Had dyspepsia or indigestion for years. No appetite, and what I did eat distressed me terribly. Burdock Blood Bitters cured me." J. H. Walker, Sunbury, O.

Mrs. Frank Stroebe, II. F. D. 1, Appletop, V is., writes : "I began using Pcruna a few months ago -when tny health and strength were all gone, and I was nothing but a nervous wreck, could not sleep, eat or rest properly, and felt no desire to live. "Three bottles of Peruna made me look at life in a different light, as I began to regain my löst strength. Wh ile my recovtry took nearly four months, at the end of that time I was better than I ever had been before. I had a splen did color and never weighed more in my life. "I certainly think Teruna is without a rival as a tonic and strength builder, and it has my endorsement." This lady entirely recovered from a nervous breakdown. She did not go away to a sanitarium, and spend hundreds of dollars for a cure. She just staid at home, took Peruna, and in four months weighed more than ever In her life, had a splendid color, life looked bright Urlier. Peruna did all this for her.
