With nearly 35n of the Roost veil d legates declining to vote and hast ening away at adjournment to ten der to Col. Kixjsovelt the nomina tion of a new party, the 15th Rt-pub llcan national convention, at the end of a long uml turbuious session to night renominated William H. Taft of Ohio for president and James Schoolcraft Sherman of New York for vice-president. President Tuft received El of the 1.078 votes In the convention, or 21 more than a majority. The decision of the Roosevelt pco pie, under direction of their lead er, to refrain from voting, left no other candidate near the president. The announcement of the Taft vic tory wan greeted with cheering from his adheninta and groans and hisses from the opposition. When It liecanie absolutely cer tain early today that Mr. Taft would be nominated without great difficul ty the leaders in control of the eon ention derided to give him us a running mate his companion on the ticket in 1908. All others dropped from the race, and Mr. Sherman was the only ran dldate plared before the convention. A motion from New Hampshire to make she nomination by accla mation was declared out of order. There were many scattering votes on the roll call that ensued. The convention amid such confu sion adjourned sine die. At no time was there and Indi cation of a walk-out of the Roose velt delegates. They expressed their revolt by silence. In confusion JubI before adjournment a resolution was adopted giving the national commit tee power to declare vacant the seat of any man on the committee refus ing to support the nominees of the regular convention of 1912. Sherman's vote was 597. President Taft was nominated at 9:25 tonight. The revolt of many Roosevelt de legates In the convention was open from the moment the permanent roll containing the names of contested delegates were approved. A "vale dictory" statement was read In be half of Col. Roosevelt, asking that his name be not presented and that his delegates sit in mute protest against all further proceedings. Former President Theodore Roose velt wns nominated by an Indepen dent ticket tonight in the dying hours of the Republican national convention in which he had met de feat. The followers of Col. Roosevelt gathered In Orchestral Hall, less than a mile from th Coliseum, find piidged their support (o their form er president. In accepting, the nomination Col. Roosevelt appealed to the people of all sections, regardless, of pursy af fllalio'is, to stand with tin? founders ol the new party, o;.e "f whose car dinal principles was to be "Thou sHalt not i leal." The informal m, initiation of Cot. Roosevelt was said to he chiefly for (he purpose of affecting a tempo rary organization. Beginning to morrow, whe'l a tall i.4 to be Issued for n State convention in Illinois, the work of organization will be pushed forward rapidly, State by State. At !i later time, probably early in August. It Is intended that a national convention shall be held. WILLING TO STEP ASIDE. Col. Roosevelt in accepting the nomination tonight, said he did so understanding tb:U he would willing ly step aside if It tdiouid be the de giro of the new party, when orga nised, to select another standard bearer.

Adolphus ll'jse and wife trotu the Horse t reek -euioi of the county were today . dged In Jail by iKputy Sheriff Reu hartzog, they bung charged with the luurdtr of their infant child toiuo two weeks ago. When Rose, and his who Wert? lodged in jail they had only 30 cents in money, 5 cents of which Rose in. mediately spent for snuff ati'i 5 cviits tor candy; so if he should take an inventory at this lime he would be 20 cents to the food. Rose is said to have spent a term in the reformatory some years ago for forgery. His lfi is only lb years old, while Rose is about 21. They are said to be wry low In the scale of intelligence, and It is further said that a former child dis appeared about the time of its birth their first born and about which little wns said. The f..cts in the present case are about as follows: About two weeks ago, when Rose and his wife woke at morning, their slx-mouths-old child was found dead in the bed. its arm broken, or the shoulder Joint displaced, while there were bru.ses about lis head and body. The neigh bors at once suspected foul play con ct ruing the cause of the child's death. The mother states that she knew nothing about the cause. Later she seems to have admitted that sh? had some kind of a dream, and had it f tint i -colled Ion of the child fall ing out of bed during the night, and that she placed it back In bed. The hushuud seems to know noth ing about the affair and was uncon cerned at the burial services, while the young mother seemed troubled The matter wus dropped for the time being, but further investigation be fore a Jury resulted in jheir con finement at the county jail to await the action of the grand Jury. Triffllng With the Thirst in Wad. boro. Some days ago says tho Mos senger, a colored man worried a doctor almost to death for a "scrip for his sick wife. He finally got one but when he went have it filled he found it called for a spoonful of brandy, one drop to be taken be fore each meal. The Messenger gives the follow ing as illustrations of pranks the doctors play on the thirsty: Saturday colored brother paid 25 cents for the following: "This handsome gentlemen will eat a billy goat alive this afternoon at 3 o'clock on the public square." 1'retty soon the"handsonie gentleman" was back at the doctor's office complaining that "Mr. McRae won't fill dls here 'script Ion" and the 25 cents was re turned to him. Another colored brother carried a "script Ion" around to Mr McRae's and was waited on by Mr. Glltnore, who looked at it and said: "This calls for a gallon. Have you got anything to put It in?" "I thought you done had it In bottles, ,sah." returned the darkey, smacking his lips. Mr. Gllinore told him he'd have to get a Jug, and the darkey soon returned with one. "All right," said Mr. Gilmore, "Just stop and fill It with lirown creek water as you go home. That's v hat tho prescription calls for." Contents of Deserter's tirip. Winston Republican. Some weeks ago Rev. Hart Barnes of Wilkes county, was arrested in this city for deserting his wife and children in Wilkes county. He was taken to Wllkeshoro and given a preliminary hearing the past week. A fellow named I'.ert Austin testified In behalf vt the prercher and upon his oath tried to blacken the charac ter of Mrs. llarnes. This was not believed and he was Indicted for pet Jury nnd with Barnes was committed to jail In default of a $300 bond each to nwalt the next term of the Wilkes county Superior Court. In a valise belonging o the pair was found a "Mormon Hymnal, a Bible and a British bulldog pistol." A man that will desert his wife and six children Is a pretty tough cus tomer, for while the pair may not agree the responsibility of the child ren is an obligation no man with brains nnd heart will shirk and If he does he should be made to work and provide for them.

An lliiiiHrtM Yk'M South ('angina George Fitch la the Wisconsin State Journal. South Carolina Is a state of per petual irritatlou, situated between Georgia and North Carolina and somewhere between the Revolution at:J the War between the Sections. It is the fU.ating State in the Union, and is the unsafest spot between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans in which to discuss the emancipation procla mation or to edit a newspaper with a trenchant pen. South Carolina Is about as big as the front yard of a Texas cattle king, li contains 30,l'uu square miles. Is shaped like a 5-rent cut of lie, and has 1.500,000 people, in cluding Republicans, Chinese nnd In dians not taxed. The population is almoi;t equally divided between the whites and negroes, hut one white Carolinian when he k nasties his teeth nnd draws in his breath with a low hissing sound makes one hundred colored residents go avay in search of rest and a change of climate without waiting for the next train. Sou'h Carolina was settled r.bout 25o years ago, but has remained un settled since then. It has always been noted for its nervous disposi tion and its willingness to rise up and smite the universe on all oc casions. The British were having an easy time In the Revolution when they struck South Carolina, but Gen. Marion made them look like a Re publican who has criticized Uen. Ie in Charleston. The State helped win the Revolution, but threatened to take its doll things and go home in Jackson's administration, and in 1 86 1 It opened the War Between the Sections by seceding with a prodi gious explosion. Later It contribut ed Tillman to the I'nitcd States sen ate and has listened to the uproari ous results with pride every since South Carolina was severely shak en by an earthquake in 1S86, but did not secede at that time. South Carolina raises cotton. Ice and sweet potatoes, and supplies turpentine and rosin to the world at large. It begins at the Atlantic ocean In a modest way about six feet below high water, and for many miles inland is so moist that the farmers keep life belts handy on their wagons. It has many fine old towns, full of polite and chivalrous citizens, but the population peters out In the western mountains where the people eat clay Instead of tee cream and lobster, and empty the hookworms out of their Sunday shoes by pounding the soles with a stick. There are three religions In the State Protestant, Catholic and State rights. Between the Savan nah and the Pee Dee rivers John C. Calhoun Is still the greatest man In the world and history closes In 1865 Charleston, a beautiful petrified city on the seacoast. Is the metropo lis of South Carolina. The hope of the State Is In Its public schools, but the cotton mills, which are spreading all over It like a heavy rash, are driving hundreds of teach ers out of employment. Minion ami Kiluciitlon Rallies.

Blood poison which resulted from a rat's bite on the ear caused the unusual death of little Ruth Mar tin, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Martin who live In the lower sec tion of Craven county. Several days ago while the pa rents were away from home and the little girl was asleep on a pal let, she was suddenly attacked by a huge rat, which gnawed one of her ears In a horrible manner. The screams of the child brought her brother Into the room and the rat was killed. A physician was called and cauterised the wound, which for a day or two seemed to be heating. However, blood poisoning set in and despite the efforts of the pa rental and physicians, death reliev ed the little one's suffering. Mr. NewVUn's Krtnarkahle Record. Marshvllle Home.

June 22 One of the two of Baltimore's great modern hotels Inaugurated a transfornmibin tMs afternoon ly the suunding of aju!,J "" n Pr'nl life. I.e was bugs! and a vocal announcement. Aja n,an Independent thought and spacious Marble and mahogany draw ' 'Iwiys had rotinge to do nh.it he Ing room is temporarily transformed t!iem.nt was right, into a bar an addi'iotial bar--so it During the war, in whl.-h he was may be assumed that Baltimore ls,a Nithful soldier in Co. It.. I.'.'h "filling up." Cntil to-day the real convention atmosphere was missing. CHic-igo caused Baltimore to mark time, but this afternoon there is a dis tinct chanue. Men are meeting In conferences nnd in hotel lobbies and discussing the "issue" that has been foiced to the front by the naming of Parker on an 8 to X vote by a subeomi.ilt teo for temporary chairman. Mr. Bryan is sctuKuled to arrive tomor row, and it U right up to the can didates nnd delegates to determine where they will stand. Bryan has forced a showdown. Harmon, ln derwood and the favorite sons are satisfied. Clark is opposed to mak ing a contest, but numbers of his followers will not vote for Parker. Wilson's supporters are most in sm pathy with Bryan's opposition. DONE P.Y MURPHY. The situation Is this: With an overwhelming progressive sentiment in the convention Murphy and the discredited Guffy and Tom Taggert have named tho representatives of a small minority sentiment to "sound the key-not." The progressives wish harmony, but they feel they have to keep tho faith. Justice to the minority does not embrace permitting minority control. Many will be found who censue Brynn for making the Issue against Parker. Much more diffieu.8 to reconcile with desire for harmony and a purpose to respect the majori ty is Judge Parker's acceptance of the nomination for temporary chairman In the face of pronounced opposition by a progressive majori ty. There Is a great deal more Har mon activity than the number of his delegates would appear to warrant. Just the opposite is true as to Clark. There is much "talk" to the effect that Harmon's friends are banking on the support of Clark delegate when the speaker Is with drawn; that Clnrk was put In as Harmon's stalking horse and run away from his original back ets. There may be a good deal In that, but Clark's delegates can not be transferred to Harmon. MURPHY IN REACH. Charlie Murphy wns In reach this evening In Tammany headquarters In the Belvldere. He was sufficient ly communicative to deny positive ly New York's 90 delegates had been disposed of. As to the numerous current reports of Tammany's trnd lig. Murphy said: "That's what some may like to be done, but there Ik nothing In the stories. We are waiting till the convention meets." But It sometimes happens that Murphy refrains from telling all he knows. Cutting Snake-Bite Out of Medicine mid Drug Stores. American Issue. The news coming from Charlotte to the effect that the aldermen there have refused to grant the drug stores license to handle llipior sounds good. Tills example was set by the aldermt n of Greensboro a few days ago. And now that two of the lead ing cities In our state, who surely have men of the medical fraternity equal to the best, have decided un der the advice of druggists and phy sicians to stop the sale of liquor by drug stores on the ground that Its medicinal qualities ere the smallest and its curse the greatest, other cities and towns will soon follow their example, The fact that some drug stores I have been prostituted to the level ol barrooms and that some physi cians have preferred to write liquor prescriptions rather than do a legiti mate practice, has brought this sit uation on. The Anti-Saloon League awaits with Joy the day when the medical frstornitlcs will decide that they can get along without the snake bite medicine. It Is interesting that physicians everywhere are turning against any sort of alchoholic liquid ns a medicine and boldly say they find other things that give all of its good results without the bad ef fects after. The Kansas physicians havu decided that it was no good to use as a medicine, and at their re quest the last state legislature pro hibited the handling of It through drug stores. IX) not infer that the drug stores as a class have been prostituting themselves to carry on the liquor business. Very few In the Btate have, but the number has been suf ficient to Injure the reputation of the whole clas, and the upright and honest druggists are taking an ac tive part, as well as the honest phy sicians, to have the liquor business entirely abolished from the drug stores and the medical profession. The Issue wants to commend the aldermen of Greensboro and Char lotte and the medical fraterntiies and dmgglsta of those places for the step they have taken. Let other municipalities do likewise. It's a book of fiction If it pnds b saying: "And so they were mar ried and lived happily eveT after.'.' lUaCi f Mr. 1. It. N!in-.:i. Mr. D. D.
