BOURNE TO MILLION
LETTERS SENT TEDDY

dispatch to the Washington Post from j
St. Louis says:
"There has been talk here of an al
lied scheme, said to have gained wide,
circulation throughout the country by,
secret mail-order methods, to have one
million personal letters mailed direct
to President Itoosotolt Juno 11, ap
pealing to him to accept the n 'nomina
tion for the presidency. It is said that
whether the president reconsiders his
refusal or not, is not worrying the pro
moters of the movement. They are said
to believe that such a general oxpres
sion of public opinion will bo all that
is necessary to stampede 1he Chicago
e. invention for Koosevelt.
"Senator Jonathan Itourne of Oregon

Abolish Vice-Presidency.
Tho chief topic of conversation hero
today in tho lobbies of tho various ho
tela and nt the headquarters of various,
delegations is tho statement by Jonja
min Ido Wheeler, president of the Uni
versity of California, t lint tho vice
presidency is not only a useless office,
hut has come to he n real menace lo the
States. j
"In America," said President Wheel j
er, "wo have outgrown the vice-presi-
dency. At was all very well to hnve
a vice-president fift or 70 years ago. This j
speetnele of struggling over tho second
place is a fine argument against the ex
istence of the office. Tho squabbles
are likely lo result in the placing of a
weak mint in a position where death or
accident, would mnke him the head of
the nalion. The rule of succession
which wo now have would bo equally
ample with the vice-president left out. 1
It would result in stronger cabinets
and there would be less likelihood of a
weak successor to a strong president."

CHICAGO, June lo. Now that he
has been relieved from the shadow of
ihe gallows, Herman Itilb-k, sentenced
to death for murdering five m Iters
of the Vrval family, is making faint
attempts tit display his bravery in the
presence of throngs of visitors by re
hen ruing the speech he had prepared
to recite just before the noose was
placed around his neck.
To each eager group of strangers ea
ger to listen to him, he proudly tells
how many persons have kissed him, how
i lie ot her prisons applauded him for
courage and enumerates the prayers that
were to be offered for his soul. With
a great show ot talse tint very, he re
peats Ihe story of his innocence to his
wondering liteners and insists that Mrs
Kiiima Vral Nieman is the one who
should be in his place.
Lawyers say there is no foundation

not fix another date for the execution
because the federal couM intervened
