Nomination of Mr. Cleveland wan
rounder.
Lincoln, Neb., Juno IS. Col.
Henry Watterson camo to Lincoln,
for a political conference with V,'. J.
Bryan. I
Neither the Colono' nor Hryiin
would discuss their meeting In a
general way. Mr. Bryan prefe-reil
tbnt the Colonel do tho talking, and j
he was willing,
"For tho last three months." said
Mr. Watterson, "I havu accepted Mr.
COL. HENRY WATTERSON.
Bryan an the Inevituble candidate of
tho Democratic party for President.
He will bo nominated easily on the
first ballot. I expect to make u3
earnest a fight through the campaign
as ever In my life."
Asked whether Mr. Bryan Is
stronger thin year than In 189ll or
1900, Col. Watterson said:
"In my Judgment he will be. He
vlll go to the polls In November for
the first time with a united party
behind him. How much support he
will get from Bources outside the
- party remains to be seen. But I
believe he Is stronger In every way
than before. The outcome will de
pend on the way the campaign shapeg
Itself."
Col. Watterson said nothing was
certain beyonu thj nomination of
Bryan and Taft, b it that Democrats
had as much reason as Republicans
to hope for victory.
"Have the Republicans any chance
of carrying Kentucky?"
"None whatever. Bryan will get
the Staie by 20.000 or 30,000 ma-Jo-lty.
Tho election of a Republi
can governoi lust fall was due to
lecal dissensions among the Demo
crats whlrh have no relation to the
national campulgn. About 3 000
Liemocratlc voters stayed at home
and ii.UOO others supported the Re
publican ticket. This year there
will bo w Mtay-a'.-homes and no de
fection at the polls."
Mr. Watterson went over past po
litical history maintaining that the
nomination of Mr. Cleveland was a
blunder and declaring that his ad
Eilnlstrttion brought the party disas
ter In the subsequent campaigns.
"We urc," he said, "actually to
day wlie.-e we left ott thirty-two
yenrs ago. From the two terms of
Mr. Clevelcnd we got nothing ' ex
cept Homo cgveeabie changes In the
ersoi;a!ity of the official fabric. The

The words of praise bestowed on tho
several Ingredients en'.eriiig Into Doctor
Pierce's medicine by such writers should
have more weight than any nmount of
noil - professional testimonials, because
such men urn writing for the. guidance of
their medical brethren and know whereof
they speak.

Redeeming the Dromomaniac.
If anybody Is a "dromomaniac"
without knowing It, he neeu not re
main long In Ignorance. Mrs. Rus
sell Sage's latest philanthropy will
clear It up. She has given $rH.(M)0 to
start a fund for the reclamation of
tramps, and seems very much In earn
est about disbanding the army of
homeless wanderers.
The genua tramp Is to be stuuied,
analyzed, classified, cleaned up and
eliminated. Mrs. Sage Is going about
R just as seriously as she is dealing
with the general scheme of philan
thropy digging down to first princi
ples. She will have developed aoi't
of natural hlBtory of the tramp, and
npp'y to his annihilation the methods
of the natural sciences. She will go
nfter him ns the government has gone
after the boll weevil.
And why not? The tramp Is surely
a proper object of scientific resei.rch.
A Western Reserve professor has
written a ponderous tome on thfc Am
erican lobster. And Is not one hobo
of the value of many lobsters? The
national committee of 100 that has
been selected to gather "bum" dnta
may be expected to do Its work thor
oughly. There 13 no doubt of the effi
ciency of this body. Among many
names notable In the field of dromom
aniac research Is that of Dr. Ben L.
rteitman," king of the tramps" and a
tower of literary strength.
Reltman has already contributed
vastly to "bum" literature. His "Plea
for a froper Classification and Ap
propriate Treatment of the Itinerant
Vnsrant" Is a classic. He has studied
and labelled the whole HniDo of wand
erers. He has analyzed the neuro
pathic bum, the psychopathic vag
rant tho anaemic derelict, tho hrahe
bcam wanderer, the ambulatory para
noiac, and all the rest. Eighteen
years on the road have qualified him.
In a Public Library.
Did you ever observe the girl be
hind the counter of the Juvenile de
partment of the public library? Did
you ever realize what a task confront
ed her dally? Did you ever stop to
think whut a combination of gray
matter and patience was needed?
Well, the girl has taken a little of
her crowded time to tell the public
her experiences of Just five minutes
of Saturday, for it Is on Saturdays
that she finds her task most trying.
"I have started thrice today to
write five minutes' experience and
thrice havs I been Interrupted for five
minutes more," she says. "It seem
ed that each time I began a score of
Ei-iiny ilttie hands each pair tightly
clasping- a fingermarked, dog-eared
picture hook, have thriiBt themselves
tinder my nose, here and there an Im
patient demand that tho '11-beny
tajeher' should mark off their books
or fi;ul them 'The Tale of Mrs. Tlggy
Winkle' or 'Peter Rabbit.'
"And si the 'lt-berry teacher' with
a half spoken thought of 'duty be
fore pleasure (with sounds a little
more wrathful than philosophical)
rises to the call of Young America and
with seeming cheerfulness rummage
mound till 'Mrs. Tlggy Winkle' and
Tctor Rabbit' are aroused from their
plumbers to another day of Btrenuoua
life."
