I don't knpw anything about my
running for congress," said JerWrson
Myers, today. "I have had about all of
congress I want for awhile I have not
ven thought of such a thing. No. I
. have no one to suggest Just at thla time
to succeed Binger Hermann."
'If you were tendered the nomination
you would not refuse it, would your

"X would have to think before I would
accept such an offer. Thla is really the
first I have heard about anything of that

"la there nothing In the report from
Washington that you would aucceed Mr.
Hermann? waa then asked.
"t have not heard of ii before thla.
My handa' ara full just now with thla

How about your booming a Republi

him.

It is with reference to a part of an
Interview that waa published In which,
I mentioned Harvey W. Scott, as a
strong man to run with President Roose
velt. He did good work for the fait
while In Washington, and when I waa
asked about a good man for second place
on the Republican ticket. In recognition
. of his service to the fair, and especially
as being a home man, one from my own
atate, X suggested his name, and I really
think they could not select a better man
for the place or one who would be more
acceptable to the president as a running
mate. He would carry great weight in
the east, probably more than any other
' man from the extreme west"
"Is it not a little ou,t of the ordinary
for a Democrat to be booming a Republi

aaked.
"May be it is, but when I was a eked
the question I answered just as I have
stated for that is what I really believe.

"The Oriental feature of our fair la
the strong one with congress and will
be the great drawtnr crd for eastern
visitors; It will be the main thing to
bring them here," aaid Mr, Myers.
"The people of the east, particularly
the manufacturing people, are looking,
more and mora to the Astatic countries
for trade. They realise that it 1s only a
question of time until England will
adopt a high protective tariff and thla
market will then be largely lost to our
manufacturers. Asia and tha islands of
the Pacific will then otter the best tleld
for our foreign trade, especially In view
of the digging of the Panama canal.

can count on this much. There is a
Strong probability, to say the least, that
the other features in the bill will be

desired on these additional features. I
am glad tha committee from the cor-
? oration has returned to Washington,
urged them to stay there until the
measure was finally passed by both
houses, but they thoaght enough had
been dona and they could return home.
I think no bad effects will result from
their leaving, other than the delay that
ia necessarily caused by the time It
takes to . get back there and to cover
again the. ground already gpne oyer.
It haa been nothing but rain, sleet
and anow all the way . from . Omaha to
the Atlantic all the time I have been
there. That climate is awful. I would
not live back there under any condi
tion "The young men are desirous of
obtaining mora information about thia
western country. -Conditions for them
are not good. You might say, they are
practically serf a; they are owned by
the corporations for whom they work.
By reason of tha lower transportation
rates that the fair will cause, an oppor

could not otherwise make the- trip, to

large amount of furs was recently
stolen by George Kelley. Kelley Is an
ex-convict, but at the request of Detec
tives Day , and Welner, tha arresting
officers, District Attorney Manning re
leased hln on 'the pretext that there
was not sufficient evidence to convict
him. - Kelley. however, uoon belna as
sured by tha arresting officers that he
would not be punished, at once restored
the stolen sealskins. The record of re

that Kelley was tuened free at the re
quest of Dy with the consent of Chief
of Police Hunt. Judee Hoaua and the
district attorney. ; Whoever put Judge
Hogue's name down as having agreed to
tha Irregular release had no auchority
from him to do so, .according to his
statement. He says he haa no power to
release a man after binding him over
to tha grand jury. Only the district at
torney has power to release such' a
prisoner, and tha district attorney did
so. , '

Silverfleld today. "Tha reward for the
return of tha akins has not been oald.

"To whom will tha reward ro?" waa
asked.

field, "but that will be made public when
it is paid. Tha skins are still held by
the police, and tha reward will not be
paid until we get them. I am not famil
iar with the details of the case, but as
I said yesterday, tha thieves should have
been punished."
District Attorney Manning declined
to make any statement today regarding
tha Kelley case, or that of Matt Cullen,
arrested In connection with the Silver
field robbery. Cullen is still confined In
tha county jail on a charge of larceny,
but Manning said yesterday that he
would not prosecute him, as long as
Kelley. is out of reach.

who will receive the reward for the re
