Hot Springs, Va, July 8.—William H. Taft, Republican candidate for the presidency, Monday distinguished himself on the diamond where a game of baseball was played between the statesman sojourning here and the newspaper men who are endeavoring to keep the public informed upon the candidates’ daily actions. The game was the result of the ac- LEADING MEMBERS OF PARTY WORK HARD | visible supply of cotton shows a total | Mayor Brown of Lincoln Arrives With Mr, Bryan's Draft of Resolutions— Conference WithGov. Maskell—Mr. Bryan Is Consulted on All Deciara- tlons—But Wants Committee Free. Denver, Col., July 8.—Evidences are multiplying that practically the only difficult plank to prepare for the Dem- ocratic platform will be that relating to the use of injunctions in industrial disputes. Mr, Bryan has let it be known through a number of reliable sources that his position on this plank is not rigid. Work on the platform continued Monday through the medium of an in- formal -sub-eommittee consisting of Gov. Haskell, who is to be chairman of the resolutions committee, and a number of prominent members of the party who will. have places on that committee. The product of this work will be laid before a large sub-commit- tee of the resolutions committee when tivity of Senator Murray Crane who has had long conferences with the Republican candidate while here. Mr. Crane had no sooner finished his breakfast Monday than he began plan- ning for a contest of skill between the statesmen and the correspondents. TELEGRAPHIC BREVITIES.

The correspondents went out- side of their own members for a sec- ond baseman, placing Charlie Taft in that responsible position. Charlie dis- tinguished himself when his father went to bat and struck the second ball delivered to him. The ball went whiz- zing toward the second base and it looked as if it would give Mr, Taft a home run, but Charlie nipped his father’s hopes by catching him out.

The Indians are making a new de} mand, according to these reports, one} distinctly different from anything | heretofore broached. The demand is that the Snakes be given their allot- ment certificates which they have, heretofore steadfastly refused. It is | said that “Crazy Snake” issued a ultimatum in which he said that un- | less the certificates were delivered the Indians would make a charge upon driving all the white people from the former Indian nation.

His father , and sister went his bonds to the which he would havé by direct vote the people; the guarantee of bank deposits by the government, and the publicity of campaign contributions. The injunction plank as drafted would prohibit the issuance of prohibitive writs without notice except in cases in which it is evident irreparable dam- age might be done to property. In that event the plank would permit the issuance of an injunction limited to ten days’ time, and a hearing would be required on the second presenta- tion of the case. Mr. Bryan has given his friends to ‘understand that while he tenders his suggestions, he does not desire that the platform commit- tee should feel tied to his language. He is willing that phraseology should be altered if it can be improved upon without changing the sense. Soon after arriving in the city Mr. Brown went into conference with Gov. | Haskell, who will be chairman of the committee on resolutions, and laid be- fore him Mr. Bryan’s views.

Why the Boys Leave the Farm. 8. A. Hover, of the Missouri state normal school, gives some good rea-| sons why the boys leave the farm. He says: One reason is because our methods of instruction in the country schools, until very recently, all tend to lead the boy cityward. Most of his text books are written by city people, and many of his teachers are brought on’Broadway. vance of all-other lines.
