SATISFACTORY TAFT AND R00SEYELT. They are Eolh Nominated by Different Wings of the Party. THE CONVENTION WAS VERY STORMY. Chicago, June 22. William How ard Taf t was renominated for Presi dent of the United States by the Republican National Convention at 9:25 o'clock to-night. Less tnan an hour later James Schoolcraft Sherman was renomi nate for the Vice-President. Both nominations were made on the first ballot. Senator LaFollette's name was the only one presented to the convention for th? Presidential nomination besides that of Taft Sherman's was the only name pre- seiiteu ior v ice-rresiaent. a mo - X - 1 T T f- 1 , tion made to make his nomination uiiiiuunuus was oojeccea to ana a roll call was ordered. The vote for Presidential nomination was: Taft 561, Roosevelt 107, LaFollette 41, Cummins 17, Hughes 2, present and not voting 348, absent 2. The vote on the Vice-Presidential nomination was: Sherman 597, Borah 21, Merriam 0, Hadley 14, Beveridge 2, Gillette 1, absent 71, not voting 352. The convention adjourned at 10:29 p. m. There were two exciting features of the convention, which began at 10 o'clock in the morning and continued until nearly midnight. Two hours before the nomination of Taft the personal boom of Theo dore Roosevelt gave a last expiring rrasp in a twenty-five minutes dem onstration. The second incident was a near riot in the Massachusetts delegation participated in by Chairman Root when during the roll call he began to get nervous. When it was all over and Sherman had been nominated in a gallop Pen rose looked at Crane, Crane looked at Root rmd all three looked at each other. They had drove Roosevelt out of the party. As for the Taft delegates they were disgusted and wunout a word to their candidate they left for their hotels and many of them for their trains. ROOSEVELT NOMINATED. Chicago, June 22. Former Presi dent Theodore Roosevelt was nomi nated for President on an independ ent ticket to-niht in the dying hours of the Republican National Convention in which he had met de feat. The followers of Colonel Roose velt gathered in Orchestra hall, less than a mile from the Coliseum, and pledged their support to the former President. In accepting the nomination Col onel Roosevelt appealed to the peo ple of all sections, regardless of party affiliations to stand with the founders of the new party, one of whose cardinal principles, he said, was to be "Thou Shalt Not Steal." The informal nomination of Col onel Roosevelt was said to be chiefly for the purpose of effecting a tem porary organization. Beginning to morrow, when a call is to be issued for a State convention in Illinois the -work of organization will be pushed forward rapidly, State by State. At a latter time, probably early in Au gust, it is intended that a National convention shall be held. Colonel Roosevelt, in accepting the nomina tion to-night, said he did so under standing that he would willingly step aside if it should be the desire of the new party, when organized, to select another standard bearer. The speech nominating Colonel Roosevelt was made by Comptroller William A. Prendergast, of New York, who was to have presented the Colonel's name to the conven tion. Dean William Draper Lewis, of the University of Pennsylvania law school, who was to make one of the seconding speeches, delivered to night the address which he had pre pared for the Republican conven tion. Somewhat Contradictor. One of the new books of reference itat-es in its preface that the "names received too late for insertion will be lound in the appendix." This reminds as of an Australian editor's contemp. :uous note to a correspondent: "Your letter is so scurrilous that we omit my reference to it." sicksess, Scott's Emulsion increases the appetite and builds strength rapidly. Its wonderful nourishment assists nature in restoring health. All Druggist: Scott & Bownc, Woomfield N J., 2-l i i------""i AN AGRICULTURAL TRAIN. To be Operated Over tbe Coast Line During tbe Summer. The Agricultural, & Mechanical College, West Raleigh, N. C, the United States Department of Agri culture and the Atlantic Coast Line announce that they will operate an Agricultural Train over the Coast Line in North Carolina this summer, the itinerary of which will be pub lished later. mis cram win consist ot six cars, and will carry types of dairy and beef cattle; Percheron horses; Berk shire, Duroc and Jersey hogs; im proved farm machinery of various kinds, and a well assorted lot of drain tile, and modern tools for ditching and to use in laying tile A corps of experts will give lectures at each stop, on breeds, selection, feeding and management of live stock; and when practicable to do so, practical demonstrations will be given in the use of improved farm implements and laying of tile. The three features selected for this train, viz., live stock, drainage and better methods of cultivation, are live subjects, and show that the public-spirited people who will ope rate this train are alive to the inter est'of our farmers, and should be congratulated on their selections, as these three subjects are vital to the interest of Eastern North Carolina. We need more live stock, and bet ter live stock, not only for the pur pose of raising our home supply of meat, but for the purpose of reduc ing our commercial fertilizer bills, by having more barnyard manure, which is absolutely necessary if we are to get maximum crop yields. We'need better drainage so as to be able to make maximum crops in wet seasons, as well as dry, and to make our section sanitary. It has been demonstrated that by adopting improved methods of agriculture, our yields can be doubled, and, in some instances, trebled; and by the use of modern farm machinery, one man can perform as much, or more work, than two, and do it better. In operating this train the Agn (cultural & Mechanical College, ThelPunish lynchings and to strength j United States Department of Agri- J culture and the public-Spirited At-? lantic Coast Line are endeavoring, as far as possible, to bring a few features of the Agricultural & Me chanical College to the farmer's door. Shall we take advantage of this great opportunity to gain know ledge or neglect it? Our farmers are too wide awake and progressive to neglect such a good opportunity which will cost them nothing, and we are sure that large crowds will be in evidence at each stop. Agricultural trains have been op erated in other states, and have been a big success, and, as this is the first one to be operated in the great Old North State, let us show our appre ciation by giving them a rousing crowd at each stop. The advertising matter giving a full description of this train and a complete itinerary is now in the hands of the printer, and will be thoroughly distributed in ample time for every one to be fully post ed as to the date and hour that this interesting minature College-on-wheels will visit each section. Magnificent Endowment lor Trinity. The endowment fund of Trinity College is to be increased by the magnificent sum of one million dol lars. The increase is made possible by a splendid gift from the Dukes of $650,000, and another gift from the General Education Board of $150,000 on' condition that the alumni and friends of the college will raise $200,000. Already $50,000 of this latter amount has been raised ni there remains only $150,000 of it to be raised by December 31st. Of course the alumni and friends of Trinity have no notion of allowing this opportunity to slip by them ana the necessary amount will certainly be raised within the specified time. Trinity already has an endowment of $450,000, and this together with the additional million will make it one of the most strongly endowed colleges in the South and will great ly increase the scope of its useful ness.

Little Reduction In Texas Cotton Crop. A good deal of interest has been expressed here as to the status of cotton in Texas. Secretary Fred A. Olds has a letter from his son, Mr. Fred C Olds, of Abilene, Texas, in forming him that there will be no reduction in the acreage of cotton in Texas, and that the crop pros pects are perfect, not only in the Abilene section, but all over Texas. Secretary Olds is informed by Mr. W. A. Simpkins that he has shipped during the present week six car loads of seed into Louisiana for planting. The seed are simply thrown in the mud left by the re ceding water of the recent flood, and they sprout with wonderful rapidity. They are first soaked in a prepara tion so as to make them sprout more quickly. Secretary Olds is informed that the reduction of acreage in this State will hardly exceed sixteen per cent, in some counties it runs as high as thirty per cent, but in others there is no reduction. It is declared that there is but little reduction in Wake. Raleigh Times. The First Negro Senator. The first negro who ever sat in the United States Senate as a duly qual ified member took his seat forty-two years ago. He was Hiram R. Rev els, elected by the reconstruction legislature of Mississippi, and he served from February, 1870, to March of the next year. Revels was born in North Carolina of free parents, in 1822, and, desir ing an education, he went to Indi ana, where he attended the Quaker College at Liberty. Later he studied at Knox College, in Illinois, and in 1847 he became a preacher in the African Methodist Episcapal church. He went about the country speaking about slavery, and at the breaking out of the war he organized negro regiments in Missouri and Mary land. In 1869 he went to Natchez, Miss., where he was elected a member of the city council. His next office was that of United States Senator Kansas City Star.

The most fortunate boy in the State is he who has not caught the fever that is ifl the air, but is fol lowing his patient mule up and down the long corn rows and grumbling because he cannot have the fun the town boys enjoy. All honor to the father who, seeing what is invisible to putty headed parents, holds his boy down to hard work and gives him Saturday afternoon for recrea tion. "All woi-k and no play mskes Jack a dull boy" is a saying that has been considerably overdone. All play and no work makes Jack a spend thrift and a dead beat. And that is what is the matter with the present generation. The boys are sporting on what their fathers earn. They wear the best clothes their fathers can buy, ride in automobiles bought on credit, and play tennis for a liv ing. The chap who is making a crop under the blazing June sun is the one who in latter years will furnish em ployment to the dapper fellows who are now smoking cigarettes and changing their linen every day. It is impossible to make a man out of a boy who never did an honest day's work in his life. It requires hard knocks to develop the manly quali ties in a boy's nature. It takes nerve o. stand against the temptations that beset a boy's pathway in thssc de generate days. He must practice self denial in his youth if he would resist evil in his manhood's prime. Few sons of rich men are ever able to wear the mantle of their fathers. The reason is the rich man learned to say "no" to his desires in his youth, and his son failed to learn that vital lesson. The farmer's boy has the best chance in the world to build the ladder by which he must rise. He cannot see the point now, but he will see it by and by. Our captains of industry must cem from the country if thy come at all. A dude never yet developed into a man. The shy and awkward coun try boy who is better acquainted with a grubbing hoe than he is with a base ball bat is the fellow who in future years will direct from his dor-k in his office the polished young gents who now laugh at his awkward man ners. Charity and Children. An Honest ConeressT.au. The Greensboro News remarks up on the fact that Congressman R. N. Page of North Carolina voted against the bill to increase the pay of the secretaries of Congressmen from ?1 ,- 500 to $2,000. Mr. Fage also voted to reduce the mileage allowed Con gressmen and against the pension steal, as we remember. This is a fine record. Mr. Page is voting like an honest man and a statesman and is not playing politics. It is a well known fact that not only do the members of Congress get a big hunk of graft out of their 20cents a mile allowance for traveling expenses, but that their secretaries seldom re ceive the full amount allowed for their hire. The usual procedure is for a Congressman to pay his secre tary $600 to $1,000 a year and pocket the balance of the allowance. This being the case the effort to increase the allowance of the secretaries is simply a case of more graft for Con gress re n. Ti.e Chronicle cannot understand for the life of it, how our Congress men can reconcile these things and retain any degree of self respect. And yet the Congressmen who get the most graft are generally those who make the most noise about crooked business" and are quick est to want an investigation of every thing that offers any excuse for in vestigation in the various depart ments of the government. What this country, deeds is more men in Congress like Mr. Robert N. Page. Charlotte Chronicle. Man Coughs and Breaks Ribs.
