Recommend Changes tn Public Do
main Poller Injunction Plank
Cause Bitterness.
Denver, July 9. Afier reaching an
agreement on the plank on injunction
and announcing the fact, the jub-coni-m.ttcc
of the sub-committee; on plat form
hating the subject m charge, last night
failed to supply the full sub-committee
with the document ami thus caused a
suspension of the entire proceedings on
that question. Not only did the sub
committee fait to present its report, but
up to 12 o'clock neither Mr Williams
nor Mr Sullivan, of the sub-committee,
had put in an appearance at the full
sub-committee meeting.
Dunne the evening there was much
discussion by labor leaders of the in
junction plank, and while it was assert
ed that the officers of the Federation of
Labor were satisfied with the plank,
other official representatives of labor
make loud protests against the omissKm
of the provision demanding notice in
advance in injunction proceedings.
At midnight it was announced that
the full sub-committee had passed upon
all but three or four subjects to be
dealt with and members of the subt
committee expressed full confidence that
the sub-committee would be able to pre
sent a complete, report when the full
committee meets at 9 A. M- today. At
11 30 the sub-committee adjourned un
t.l 9 30 A. M. today.
The sub-committee appointed to draft
an injunction plank reported a few min
utes before the committee took a recess
at 7 o'clock, stating through Mr. Wil
liams, its chairman, that the three mem
bershimself. Judge Parker and Mr.
Sullivan had reached a complete agree
ment He alto made the announcement
that the plank had been scrutinised by
the officers of the Federation of Labor
and was acceptable to them.
The plank as thus recommended takes
a position favorable to the placing of
labor disputes on a level with other dis
putes and against the courts regarding
laborers differently from other classes
of citizens. There is no requirement
for notice previous to an injunction
proceeding, because Mr. Gomeers had
said that none would be demanded, pro
viding there couW be cessation of dis
crimination against the labor element.
At 10 o'clock the full committee met
with the main sub-committee on plat
form but as the latter was unprepared
to report, adjourned. The sub-committee
adopted the following:
The protection!! growth of Nation
al forests, the protection of timber on
forested areas of the public domain out
side the timber reserves; the encourage
ment of reforestation throughout the
country, the immediate elimination of
agricultural lands from the forest res
ervations, the control of the timber re
serves by laws insuring equal rights to
all n place of the bureaucratic rules
and regulations that have led to a sys
tem of favoritism and terrorism obnox
ious to American institutions: the an
nulment of all rules that attempt to in
terfere with the police regulations of
the states; greater encouragement to
settle the public domain by homeseek
ers, and a system of selling timber from
the National forests, which will not put
the public at the mercy of the lumber
trusts."

CONVENTION ADJOURNS.
John Worth Kern, of Indiana, Named
for Vice President.
Denver, July It The Democrat...
iiatioual convent Kin concluded its i-i
bors late yesterday afternoon b the
nomination of John Worth Kern, ut
induna, lor vice-president, complet
ing the ticket on which William J
aryan was made the nominee for
president during the early hours oi
.he morning
The nomination of Mr Kern was
made by acclamation, amid the re
sounding cheers of delegates and spec
tators -No ballot was necessary, as
the trend of sentiment had set irre
sistibly toward the Indiana candidate,
state after state registering its dele
gations in his favor, and ail other can
didates withdrawing before the uni
versal demand for his nomination
The convention, after adjourning at
daylight with the nomination of Mr.
tirvan, resumed Its sion at 1 l M..
with a powerful undercurrent already
.n motion toward the nomination oi
Mr Kern for second place On the
fall of states Indiana presented the
name of Kern; Colorado, through ex
uovernor Thomas, placed in nomina
tion Charles A. Towne, of New York;
Connecticut presented Archibald Mc
Neill, and Georgia, Clark Howell
The names of Judge George Gray, of
Delaware, and John Mitchell, of Illi
nois were not presented, owing to the
positive requests of these men not to
have their names go before the con
vention.
For a time it looked as though a
ballot would be required, but the
steatty line oi states which joined in
seconding Mr Kern's nomination
soon made it apparent that the
chances of all other candidates had
been extinguished.
Mr Tow hc tn person was the first
candidate to recognize the decisive
nature of the Kern movement, and in
a ringing speech he withdrew his
name from consideration and pledged
bis support to the ticket of Bryan and
Kern. Withdrawals quickly followed
from the supporters of Howell, of
Georgia, and McNeill, of Connecticut
leaving the Indiana candidate alone
n the field The withdrawal of the
Connecticut candidate was accom
panied by a motion that Mr Kern be
nominated by acclamation The mo
tin wa carried with a deafening
hout, and the great assemblage broke
into clamorous demonstration n the
accomplishment of its work and the
completion of the Democratic ticket
The nomination was made at 4 Si
o'c'oek. and the convention thereupon
adjourned without date. The Demo
Tatic national committee will assem
ble this morning to complete its new
organization and to select the chiir
man. who wt'l be the commander in
chief of the Democratic forces in the
campaign. The throngs of delegates
and spectators are scattering tonight
for their homes.

Testament ethics on the family and eco-
nomic relations, referred to what he
disienated as ilw -wnrtr nf Anuria.',
work of America's
greatest preacher, who for several years
has used the White House in the sotrit
of the old time prophets to 'apply the
moral law to the great American cor
porations." The practical result of this
teaching is a revival of the sense of the
ethical responsibility.
The speaker declared that neither of
the great political parties dared to nom
inate a man to the presidency who was
not known to be a teacher of righteous
ness. During a discussion that followed,
Dr Ilrown, of California, declare! that
incidentally he had seen more drunk
enness in Edinburgh in a single rliy
inan in a wnote montn in wlctced San
Francisco."

Bandon Business Men Raise Fund for
Improvement.
Randon The business men of Ran
don are raising a fund for river and
harbor improvement work, independ
ent of congress. A lagoon neir the
mouth of the Coqudle river dericcts a
considerable volume of water from
the channel, lessening its scouring ef
ficiency and causing the formation
from time to time of a sand bar The
money, of which a considerable
amount has been already subscribed
by public spirited cittxeu, bunncs
men and mill and ship owners, will
be used to build a breakwrr across
the lagoon It is the opinion nf engi
neers in the government service that
this will confine the water to the main
channel, and keep the sand washed
away.
I he regular government appropri
ation of $M.0Ov. which is being ex
pended on the north jetty, is making
a wonderful improvement in the en
trance to the river, and no vessels
have been barbound for a period o'
