STATE POLITICS TOO SMALL Bryan Profers to Do His Work in the Larger National Field. \ WILL NOT MAKE THE RACE FOR GOVERNOR Doctors Wi for an Appropr 1ish and Ma losis Mo Ask the Next Legisial tion to Estab- . tain a Tuber- 1. (From a Staft Correspondent.) LINCOLN, June 7.—(Special)—W. J Bryan says he belleves he can accomplish more in national volitics than he can in te politics and for that reason does not @esire to be the fusion nominee for gov- srnor. He makes this declaration In re- sponse to an editorial which recently ap- peared in the Lincoln Daily Post, the local fusion organ. The Post reproduced ex- Benator Allen's editorial utterance in this regard and added that there was not a candidate for governor in either the demo- eratic or populist party who would not throw up his hat for Mr. Bryan If he would consent to the nomination. Mr. Bryan Bays: Please say that 1 am not and can not be a candidats. 1 belleve I can accomplish more in national politics than I can in state , and besides I do not intend to y 6f democrats and popu- fven me such loyal sup. rt. There are a dozen or more who c Poil the entire fusion strength, and there i8 To reason why my name should be men- tioned in connection with this office. The next issue of the Commoner will contain my reply to Senator Allen. 1 am obliged for the kind words, but the parties must pick out another man. Want Tuberculosis Hospital. The next legislature will be asked to make an appropriation for the maintainance of a hospital for sufferers from tuberculosis. The movement is backed by the American Congress of Tuberculosis, and will be dupli- cated in other states. The congress met this week in New York. Dr.J. H. Tyndale of this city, who went as the official dele- gate from Nebraska returned today. “Delegates were at the meeting from every country in the western hemisphere,” sald Dr. Tyndale, “from the province of| Ontaria and Alaska on the north, to Uruguay, Chill and the Central American states. Much attention was pald to the delegates from Cuba, Porto Rico, the Hawajian islands and Hayti, the represen- tative of the latter being a full-blooded negro of the darkest type. It was noted that these forelgners had very good com- | mand of the English language and said the| right things in the right place, which the| Americans did ‘not always do. “The secretary at the opening of the meeting motioned to me to assist him In pointing out prominent men for the com- mittee on standing resolutions. 1 promptly seized upon the chairmanship myselt and sought out the others in the hall as asso- clate members by asking their name and state represented, thus distributing the com- mittee over various sections of the coun- try. " Much good was accomplished at the con- gress, both in regard to recommending municipal, state and general goveroment legislation and in fixing upon actual methods, by which state aid can be pro- cured for the support of sanitaria for poor consumptives. While much theoretical talk was indulged in much of it was converted into action and the results will shortly be seen in the various states. “At the next session of the Nebraska legislature the appropriation committees of the senate and house will be asked for an appropriation for the maintenance of a state hospital for tuberculosis, in some sub- stantial bullding already In existence. All physicians in the state will be asked to bring pressure to bear upon the represen- tatives to aid in the matter. The governor also will be asked to embody a recommen- dation with this object in view in his mes- sage to the legislature.” The heads of all departments at the state Nouse have signed an agreement to relleve their clerks from duty each Saturday aft- ernoon during the months of June, July and August. The new order wemt into effect today, and in consequence all official busi- ness was practically suspended at noon. William C. Babbit, an employe of the Gas| company, made an unsuccessful effort to commit suicide last night. It was because of disappointment {n a love affair.
