The Republican running mate will receive notification of his nomination August 15 on the north steps of the Kansas capitol, not far from the spot where he was born in a log eabin, the son of a French and In- dian mother and a father of New England Puritan stock. . The Republican party will place about to hear the formal notification that the party has bestowed upon him one of its highest honors. That notifécation will be made by Simeon D. friends and ator Curtis is known as “our Char- ley.” After the speech by the 1928 kéynoter the Kansas senator will ith iis own keynote of npaign. Radio will carry his words to the far corners of the nation. But in the audience cn the state house lawn will be found perhaps the most in- terested, or at least the proudest, : listeners—the senator's sister, Mrs. Rome Colvin, and his two aunts, Mrs. Sarah E. Brown, 91 years old, and Mrs. Ruth H. Armstrong, 87 years old. “Charley” means almost every- thing to these three women, and they mean much to him, too. Since his wife’s death four years ago Mrs, . Colvin has kept the home fires burn- ing for her brother at his red brick house on Topeka boulevard. The aunts remind him of and link him to the days of his kind old Puritan zvandmother, Pamelia Hubbard Cur- tis, who took care of him after he, a motierless boy, left the wigwams of his bronze-skinned relatives, _ ~Pamelia Hubbard Curtis, who had come to Kansas from New England, “as poor and she had other children % t> support.

Indorsement of the principle of collective bargaining and freedom in labor negotiations wit the curtail- ment of “the excessive use of injunc- tions in labor disputes.” Hoover made no mention of either the Boulder canyon dam project or of the operation of the socalled power trust, subjects which Senator Hiram Johnson, of California, and other Republican independents ave put forward as an issue of the campaign. However, the nominee did say that he hoped at a later time to discuss “the relation of our go ‘ernment to public utilities and rai ways.” In concluding, the cabinet officer paid high tribute to President Cool- ge. “I would violate my consicence ‘urning to corruption which he; publicly accounted for, and “a truej and the gratitude I feel,” he said, “did I not upon this occasion e: press appreciation of the great pres- ‘ident who leads our party today. President Coolidge has not aay given a memorable administration, he has left an imprint of rectitude and statesmanship upon the history of our country. He has dignified jeconomy to a principle of govern- {ment. He has charted the course of our nation and our party over many years to come. It is not only a duty but it is the part of statesmanship that we adher to this course.” (MINERS HEALTH ISSAFEGUARDED : Electric Fan to Keep Pure Air in Beulah Underground Lignite Mine A huge electric fan, capable of | moving 100,000 cubic feet of air eacn {minute, has been installed in the {Knife River Coal company’s mine at Beulah, according to a report to Al- bert Waddington, state mine inspec- jtor, by W. T. Kraft, manager of the mine. ‘The fan, operated by a huge motor at the entrance of the mine, will in- sure greater safety for the men working in the underground pass- ages, Kraft sai It was installed jto improve hi conditions in the imine and to increase production. Numerous improvements have been made in the machinery at the mine, which is believed to be the largest producing underground lig- e mine in the state, the report said, Approximately 300 men _ will be used in the mining operations this |season, Kraft said. A second coal crusher, with a capacity of 250 tons per hour, has been added to the ma- chine installed last year and a mo- tor generator set was installed at the underground sub-station to gen- erate power for the new machinery. Other new equipment includes a 10- ton electric locomotive for use on the mine rails; a cutting machine for the actual mining and 60 new mine making a total of more than 400, The trend in lignite mining in North Dakota is changing, Kraft said. For many years it was be- llieved desirable to mine lignite in ‘as large chunks as possible. Now, however, the .coal is crushed into four or five inch pieces which tests show give a greater number of heat units than the same amount of coal in larger pieces. Each day sufficient rain falls un- on the earth to fill a reservoir 400 miles square to # depth of ten feet. It descends at the rate of sixteen million tons a second.

Late estimates of the size of the Canadian wheat crop were also much below Saturday’s figures, and there was further closing out of spreads be- tween wheat and corn. Wheat closed firm, 1%¢ to 1%¢ net higher, corn ranging from_lc decline to 142c advance, oats %*@% to %4c off, and provisions at 5c set- back to a rise of 15c.

Meanwhile, fa- vorable Canadian wheat crop reports tended decidedly to curtail buying pokes and to stimulate belief in lower prices. According to authoritative advices wheat in Canada will become general this week, and the greater part of the crop will be safe by August 25. In some places late Canadian wheat will require 80 days without frost, but this part of the crop is only a small per cent, the crop as a whole being 10 days earlier than usual. The entire Canadian crop is reported as filling perfectly. WHEAT ENJOYS SNAPPY RALLY Minneapolis, Aug. 18.— ) — Wheat had a snappy rally late in to- day’s session, in spite of a heavy journey, faltered in the last lap and had to be content with fourth place to add to the record-breaking 100 meter backstroke final he turned in earlier in the week. Walter Lauffer, Chicago, finished fifth, ahead of Spence, the Canadian, and Zorilla, South America, the newly crowned 400 meter free style champion. Weissmuller equalled the Olympic mark he set at 58 3-5 seconds earlier in the competition. It was left to Miss Osipowich, the powerful New England Miss who swims with the thrashing style of Weissmuller, to smash a record, the sprint mark for women. ‘Forced to the limit by Elea- nor Garatti, San Rafael, Calif., Miss Osipowich grabbed the crown ae a bare hand breadth at the finish line in 1 minute, 11 seconds flat.

They are planning to do them- selves proud when they entertain Kiwanians from the Minnesota-Da- kota district in annual convention August 23 and 24.

The preliminary program, however, calls for a banquet to be served under the “big top.” The banquet will be followed by the an- nual governor's ball.

Prithe commercial and bankers’ acceptance rates held firm. Sale of sterling around the low level for the year aroused hopes in speculative quar- ters of a return flow of gold from England in the near future, but lead- ing bankers were not quite so op- timistic.
