Secretary BIGHT DAYS] TF Major Men Expect i to Carry St. Loois. St. Louis.—Preliminaries for the gubernatorial campaign of Attorney- General Major in St. Louis are taking form rapidly. That his campaign is progressing rapidly was the conviction brought back from Jefferson City by F. H. Fricke, chairmaiu of the local Major organization. Fricke conferred in Jefferson City with D. C. McClung, secretary of the Attorney-General’s State Campaign Cominittee. “There is nothing to it but Major,” Fricke s:.id. ‘The Major people now have an organization in every county in the state. Our claim is that | Major will reach St. Louis 35,000 in the lead. In Jefferson City there are facts and figures to prove this. | “The Major-for-Governor”’ club of Kansas City is issuing literature giv- ing the record of Attorney-General ___Major is a friend-of working men-and; women, which is being sent to the | 125,000 members of organized labor | in Missouri. It is of such a broad; nature that it will gain for the Attor-| ney-General thousands of votes. | “‘We have an organization for Ma-| jor in every ward in St. Louis, and after our conference Saturday with the Attorney-General, will be ready; for hard, active work. Our ward organizations consists of volunteers averaging about 200 toa ward, who will make a house-to-house canvass, commencing Monday. In some coun- ties Major will walk away with the vote. Among these are Callaway, Cole, Jasper, Boone, Pike, Monroe, Audrain, Dunklin, Ripley and Ore- gon. We will carry the Eleventh Congressional District in St. Louis by 3,000, and will also carry the Tenth. In the Twelfth it will be a close race. We expect to carry St. Louis by from 3,000 to 5,000.” Swanger Out of the Race. Jefferson City, July 16.—State Bank Commissioner John E. Swang- _ er to-night officially withdrew from the race for the Republican nomina- tion for governor. He issued a state- ment giving party discord as a rea- son for his present action. Mr. Swanger stated that there was no foundation for a rumor to the ef- fect that he contemplates resigning the position of bank commissioner to engage in other business. Francis for Committee Honor.

Frank Nolan, skipper of the fishing schooner Massasoit, which reached) T wharf with a catch of swordfish. Captain Nolan made his report to Secretary Fred F. Dimick of the Bos- ton Fish Bureau, but later would not talk about it to newspaper reporters. The crew, too, was reticent. Accord- ing to Captain Nolan, the serpent, or +whatever it might be called, was sighted on the afternoon of July 5, about half a mile away from the schooner, which was on the southerly end of George’s Bank. It appeared to be about 150 feet long and about 15 feet in width. An ugly head of: remarkable size was thrust out of the water and two square fins protruded from the sides just abaft the gills. Captain Nolan sought to work his, vessel nearer the curiosity, but it dis-| appeared before this could be done. y- the part of a president of the The Nevada Chautauqua. ee — Wo pH The Nevada Chautauqua will be great office for the purpose of held July 28th to August 4th inclu- controlling the vote of any sena- | S!V@- The Program consisting of tor upon a question involving a | MUSIC, entertainment and lecture is right to a seat in the Senate, or the strongest that has ever been pre- upon any other matter within the sented by the Nevada Chautauqua exclusive jurisdiction of the Sen- | Association.
