TWENTY-TWO GET DIPLOMAS Twenty-two graduates, the largest umber in the history of the Univer- ty of Omaha, received degrees at the nth annual commencement exer- s ueid in John Jacobs Memorial last evening. The graduation ked a new epoch in the history of university, as it was the first time jat students of the 'aw department have held joint exercises with the col- ge of liberal arts and sciences. Dr. Irving S. Cutter, dean of the ollege »f medicine of the University | of Ncoraska, was the commencement aker. In his talk of the “Achieve- ~ments of Biological Science,” he out- lined the progress made in medicine for for the last two centuries, | He traced step by step the great j,guoveries and their benefits to man. e eulogized the work of such scien- tists as Pasteur, Morton, Erlich, Hun- ter, and Lister. Comparing these sci- tists to the graduates, he said that proof of their ability was not in ‘what they knew, but in how they vimd it among the people. Just as en spread their learning and mankind, he urged the students ‘ruld their knowledge and help the less fortunate. L “The people of this age should re- scientific men,” he said. “In the st am' greatest discoverers were ~™ at because their ideas were ew: 1t in advance of the theories Vieir time.

SNYDER. Chicago, June 9.—Special Tele- gram.)—So far as the republican na- tional convention is concerned, the stage is set for a presidential nomina- tion by 12 o'clock tomorrow night. The platform has been adopted; the | rules of 1908 with modifi Ations to| suit changes endorsed, the several contests happily settled; the tem- porary organization made permanent and it is now up to the delegates to the convention ta get down to the | busiess that called them to this rain- bcdraTgled. sewer-stopped, mud- coagulated metropolis of a mighty will be triumphantly elected on Nov- ember 7. Of the platform much will be writ- | ten in praise or criticism in the com- ing months. Its brevity will attract or repel. Its ringing declaration as to labor, its recogniticn of equal suf- frage, but passing its enactment to the several states, will be praised or condemned dependent upon just how much of a suffragist one is. Its Amer- icanism is pronounced, its economic features reflective of the best tradi- tions of a great party. Jansen Likes It. ~ Peter Jansen of Beatrice, one of the strong, virile men of a really very great convéntion, a wheel horse in re- publican ranks for many years, and the Nebraska member of the commit- tee on resolutions, said of the plat form: ! “It is one that any republican can stand upcen. It is that precise and tense. Enough material was presented to the committee on resolutions to fill an American encyclopedia on poli- tics. It is American to the core and the platform ought to be acceptable to labor and to capital alike. Yt ought to be acceptable to stalwarts and pro- gressives alike.” In this connection it may not be out of place to say that the resolutions committee had a long and sometimes heated debate.over a proposed section relating to compulsory military edu- cation in the conmon schools. Peter Jansen was a pronounced opponent of the proposition, which was finally de- feated by a vote of 23 to 19. Then, too, the cuommittee had a spirited fight over the suffrage plank,l several substitutes being offered to the plank as originally prepared. But after “full and free discussion.” it was finally decided to accept the short form on suffrage as it now appears. E. M. Pollard of Nebraska and a delegate from the First distict, voiced his approbation of the platform by saying, “[ am glad the resolutions committee included suffrage in the platform. This is one of the best evidences of the tendencies of the re- publican Ear(y and shows that the ‘party‘ of Lincoln, Grant and McKin- | | ley is abreast of the time. The plat- |form as a whole is most inspiring, the best in my time. It is broad enough for every American to stand on.” But Pollard is not the only mem- ber of the Nebraska delegation to get ! “chesty” over the platform, O. R, | Thompson of Wisner being another | booster for the skillful partisanship Owens Takes Title In Pool Tourney Owens won the championship of the citv pocket billiard tournament last right from Larson, 100 to 62. It was exciting all the way through, and was witnessed by the largest crowd that ever atterided a billiard match in this city at.the C. C. C. bil- liard parlors. Larson wins second place and Rey- nolds takes third, with Mooney in fourth place. —_— OMAHA BOY GETS |. C. CITY TICKET OFFICE AGENCY HERE Edgar S.
