Wm, Jennings Bryan lost-his first light for progressive control of the Democratic national conven tion today when he was defeated for temporary chairman of the convention by Alton B. "Parker. Mr. Bryan first nominated Sen ator Kern to oppose Parker. The latter delined the honor and nam ed Mr. Bryan to make the fight, The Nebraskian made an elegant plea "for the cause he had repre sented for 16 years," but it was unavailing. ' Third Party Now a Reality. Chicago, June 24 The "Pro- gressive" party, born Saturday night, was dedicated yesterday. In the presence of perhaps 500 men, some of them recognized leaders of the movement,, others merely onlookers, the first formal step was taken. GovernorJ ohn sont of California,, was empower ed to appoint a committee cf se ven memoers to confer with Col onel Roosevelt and formulate a plan of action. "The movement is going stea dily ahead, " said James R. Gar field, of Ohio.

Murphy is said to haye been con vinced that with Clark-he had a better chance to win than with any member of his reactionary list, dark horse or otherwise. The plan as it became known to Mr. Bryan was that the alliance should put Parker over for the temporary chairmanship, make Theodore Bell, national commit teeman from California, who spoke for Parker's selection, Teachers Institute. Superintendent Holloway, and there is no County in the. State that can boast of a more faithful one, is happy over the success of the Teachers Institute which met last Monday morning.

Chicago, June With near ly 350 of the Roosevelt delegates declining to, vote and hastening away at adjournment time- to tender to Col. Theodore Roose velt the nomination of a new. par ty the fifteenth Republican nation al convention at the end of a long and tumultous session tonight renominated ' William Howard Taft of Ohio for President, and James Schoolcraft Sherman of New York, for Vice President. President Taft received 561 of the 1 ,078 votes in the convention, or 21 more than a majority. The de cision of the Roosevelt people under the direction of their leader to refrain from voting, left no other candidate. The announce ment of the Taft victory was greeted with cheering from his adherents and groans and hisses from the opposition. When it be came absolutely certain early to day that Mr. Taft would be no minated without great difficulty, the leaders in control of the con ventfon decided to give mm as a running mate his companion on the ticket in 1908. All others dropped out of the race and Mr. Sherman was the only candidate regularly placed before the coventien. A motion rom New Hampshire to make he nomination by acclamation was declared out of order. There were many scattering votes on the roll call that ensued. The conventfon amid much confusion adjourned sine die. At no time was there an in dication of a walk-out of the Rooseveltdele gates. They express ed their revolt by silence. In the confusion just before ad- lournment. a resolution was a- dopted giving the national com mittee power to declare vacant the seat of any man !on the com mittee refusing to support the nominees of the regular conven tion of 1912, Sherman's vote was 597 y- permanent chairman and then who know him it is not necessary rush thiners through to the nomi-1 to say anything.

Tavenner, Washington, June.; 26. If in order. to be convinced that the present policy of excessive pro tection is a mistake, the Ameri can public simply demands evi dence that-wtorkers in the piost htehly protected industries re- eeiveno protection whatsoever then the, country will go over whelmiagly Democratic this fall. The evidence is accessible. The1 Lawrence, Mass., strike revealed "that the men, women and children workers in the great woolen mills the most highly protected industry of all receive $5, $6" and $7 a week wages for full time. The Stanley commit tee showed that Workers in the blast furnaces of the steel mills the second most highly protect ed industry work 12 hours a d?iy, seven days a week, and are mis erably treated and underpaid. And how comes the most damning revelations of all, in re port of the New York " Factory Investigating commission, show ing that there are 296,000 women at work in the highly protected factories of New York cities, d that the average weekly wage of these women toilers is $5.' The proprietors of tip. factories told .i . . . . . the investigators time and again that they "use women in place of! men.w.herever possible, as they are ch feapef and do hot strike for better wages" or conditions," The report of this commission has been veriSpd bv independent investigators of a big New York newspaper.
