-At p

last evening In the presenc of a large and enthusiastic audience, i Eugene V. Chafin of Chicago accepted the nomination for the presidency by the Prohibition party. The address formally notifying Mr. Chafin of hi; selection as the head of the Prohibition ticket was made by Prof. Charles Scanlon of iPittsburg. Leading members of the party from . llllinois, Michigan, "Wisconsin, Ohio, Indiana, Nebraska and oth.fr states fwere seated on the platform., as were Jalso the national executive committee
men, chairmen of the various state committees, the committee on notification and several prominent prohibitionists, Charles Jones, chairman of the national committee, called the meeting to order and announced the seleceiton of Samuel Dickie, president of Albion college, Albion. Mich., as chairman. Mr. Dickie delivered a brief address and then introduced Mr. Scanlon. He was greeted with applause as he began his notification speech and throughout his remarks were interrupted by evidence of approval. "You are not asked," said Mr. Scanlon .turning to Mr. Chafin, "to lead a forlorn hope. The final issue of this struggle is not now or ever has been in doubt. The principles advocated by the prohibition party are as certain to prevail as time is to continue." Mr. Scanlon mentioned other things besides the liquor traffic which demand attention. "Recognizing these other questions," said he, "the prohibition party has framed a platform which is clear and concise, conservative, constructive and comprehensive. It contains everything of value In all of the others, without their evasive technicalities, obscurities, false issues, sophistries and subterfuges," , Mr. Scanlon concluded amid an outburst of cheering. "When it had subsided he handed Mr. Chafin-an elaborately engrossed copy of the prohibition platform.
HONOR WHERE IT IS DUE ACCORDED ADMIRAL EVANS (Continued From Page One.)
Korl ol For Indigestion: Relieves soar stomach, palpitation of the heart Digests whatyou eat.
K. Smiley introduced as presiding officer of the ceremonies J. Edward Simmons of New York. When Admiral Evans was brought into the room in a wheel chair the audience applauded Mm vigorously, keeping it up until the admiral raised his hand as a request for silence. Mr. Simmons then delivered a eulogy of the admiral. Mr. Simmons said the occasion of the retirement of Rear Admiral Evans was to be regretted; because of the ill health which compelled him to surrender the chief command of the greatest fleet of battle ships that has ever made a tour of the world, and because the admiral's brilliant career terminates under the law on his sixtysecond birthday and the navy loses one of its most experienced officers at a time when in building up the new navy his professional services would be of inestimable value. Calls Him Fighter for Peace. It was appropriate Mr. Simmons said that the retirement of Rear Admiral Evans should be celebrated in the "Temple of Peace" created by the Mohonk society of Peace years
because, while Rear Admiral Er&ai
had justly won the title of "Fighting Bob Evans," he is an outspoken, insistent and persistent fighter for peace. "Now that we have become a world power," said the speaker, "and now that our domestic affairs, as well as our responsibilities in the Philippines in Panama, 1n Hawaii, in Cuba and Porto Rico, subject us to constant danger from the jealous and ambitious aggressions of great naval establishments in Europe, as well as in the Orient, it stands to reason that both prudence and duty now demand that we do precisely what our kinsmen- in the British. Isles long ago found absolutely necessary to their self-preservation."
In conclusion Mr. Simmons said:
"We welcome you, Admiral Evan6, to the shade of private life. We hope your health will be speedily and permanently re-established and we wish for you and for your family all the sweetest blessings of prosperity and happiness."
IV TROUBLES HOODS Officials Discussed Them Last Night and Reached No Agreement.
EACH SIDE IS WAITING.
About Your Dishes. Dishwashing, and the cleansing of the articles you eat with, demand a perfectly pure soap. No one likes even to think of the impure fats and raw rosin of common soaps, coming in contact with the dishes, glassware and the knives and forks. Better be on the safe side and use Easy Task soap. Everyone knows that's pure, and it only costs five cents a cake. Your grocer has it.

AFRAID TO TAKE INITIATIVEOPERATORS NOT ANXIOUS TO START WORK, SO DELAY IS NOT MATERIAL.
lABBIX.
Indianapolis, Aug. 19. Four officials and members of the Indiana Coal Operators' association met with the executive board of District No. 11, United Mine Workers of America, and President Thomas L. Lewis at national headquarters last night with a view to coming to some agreement on the coal industry situation in Indiana. The bone of contention is the discharge of a driver at a mine near Flemingsburg, Sullivan county, for alleged disobedience, resulting In work being Indefinitely suspended at the mine by an or
der of the executive board of the miners. For three hours last night both sides tried to reach some agreement, but failed, and at 11 o'clock it was decided to adjourn until this morning at 9 o'clock. According to one of the members of the executive Doard indications at the meeting were that the operators would refuse to allow the "checkoff system in the Eleventh District mines until the miners were officially sent back to work in the Flemingsburg mine. It is proposed to settle the question of the reinstatement of the driver at a later date by an arbitration committee. "Each side seems to be waiting for
the other to make the first move," said one of the executive board members after the meeting. "The operators do not seem to be anxious to start work in the mines that are now idle until the miners are called back to work at Flemingsburg. Until the op
erators make some satisfactory promise the miners are not inclined to concede anything to -the operators. Something, however, may be done that will satisfy both sides this morning, although the miners have no definite assurance that will be the case. ' The operators were represented by Hugh Sharkey, vice president of the Indiana Coal Operators association; P. H. Penna, secretary-treasurer; John Hewitt, superintendent of the Vandal la Coal company, and John Templeton, superintendent of the Coal Bluff Mining company. W. D. Van Horn. D. N. Curry and Charles Fox constitute the executive board of the miners la the Eleventh district.
