TO NOTIFY NOMINEE ON AUGUST SEVENTH CEREMONY HELD ON LAWN OF LITTLE WHITE HOUSE." OHIe James Announces Plans?'Speech of Acceptance to Sound Keynote. Seagirt, N. J., July 6.?Governor Woodrow Wilson and Senator-elcet Ollie James, of Kentucky, who was permanent chairman of the Baltimore convention, decided this afternoon to have the governor formally notified of his nomination on the lawn of New Jersey's "Little White House," here, at 2 o'clcok on the afternoon of Wednesday, August 1/ \Tv Tames iid from Washing ton and had a long talk with the nominee, during which he was requested to name as late a date as possible, to ! afford Governor Wilson an oprorcuni- i ty to. catch up with his correspon- i denee, now some 10,000 letters and, telegrams behind. The speech of notification will be j short and the governor's reply will | sound the keynote of the campaign, ! Mr. James declared. Living Cost and Tariff, Issues. Governor Wilson let.it be known to- I day that he would deal chiefly with ; . the high cost of living and the tariff, I which he regards as the leading issues clearly and fully. Until that time, however, he will have little to say in reply to criticisms of the platform by Theodore Roosevelt or anybody else. His speech of acceptance, which he "will shortly begin to draft, will be his j first public comment, he declared, up-1 on the party platform. T-. -ii J. ^ ^ ^ i livery a,itempt uj muutc uvywuwi [ Wilson to take issue-with any critic j so far has failed. He discussed today j the high cost 01 living as an issue, j saying he regarded it as the leading j issue with the tariff at the heart of it, but declined to comment upon Col. Roosevelt's utterances. Will Notify Members. Mr. James went to New York tonight intending later to leave for Washington, where b? will write members of the notification committee of the date set for formally apprising Governor Wilson of his nomination.; T^e committee will meet, he said, at | the Imperial hotel, "n New Yorw, on j the morning or August < anu come m a body to Seagirt. , With reference to the chairmanship of the national committee, Mr. James said: "The manager must be a man who does not make mistakes." William F. McCombs, he added, in reply to a question, "is a great or- j ganizer and a man of unusual execu- j tive ability." Mr. James told the governor he had j talked with Champ Clark and knew that Mr. Clark was strong for Wil-! son. Declares Clark Loyal.

William Jennings Bryan, with the loyal support of a few young men of high ideals, has waged within the past week the most remarkable political fight in the history of this country? ! and won.

It means the triumph of new ideals, the same ideals T~> ?.?./ V? A/S. Vtnl/^inor n ^ Kafnro I lira.i Di.vdu iicis uctru uuiuiug uviu?>. i the country for all these years. He i has lived to see one of the great parties accept his doctrine of social justice, l and with the overwhelming approval j <^f the people. When Bryan left Chicago, where he had been reporting the Republican convention and had seen with his own eyes the triumph of the same old sel 'fish interests in politics, ne was prou- i ably ready to make the fight he has made, to the astonishment of the peo- ; pie, to free the Democratic party from ! vfche grasp of these influences or aban- j don it for good, as not worthy of his } further support. Mr. Bryan had prob- j ohiv rAaohpd the Doint where he was i about ready to decide that his spirit should not always strive with a party hopelessly bound to the bosses, who are on the job for the privilege-enjoy ing interests. We can explain Mr. Bryan's course In the beginning of this convention, when he plunged into the light against Parker for temporary chairman, only on the ground that he had some doubt as to the loyalty of Clark. Word had probably reached him that the speak. er's friends had put througl the trade L__L~ ; __.m ' ' f ; wi:h Murphy: and. rather rha:- a- c-vp:1 hearsay evidence, lie dec: led to 1'oree the issue and bring the C1:'.'1'; people | to ^ showdown. He succeeded, iroiu I the moment the vote was recorded, showing the lineup between Clark and Murphy, the whole situation was as | plain as day. The trade had been made and was revealed at the very beginning of the convention. To break this combination and discredit the men *? ' 1 ?if Qwiin itifrn. wno nau truieicu xaitu -? j.mw duced his famous urging resolution, which put the convention on a progressive platform from which it could not escape. Bryan disclosed the plot and smashed it. And, considering the plotters were piouers wnu iiau pw.xa uctuic, many a time, and gotten a way with if, more is the credit due Bryan. . m0 Bryan's Great Fig-ht. 'Orangeburg Times and Democrat. Some folks who were right on tbe ground could not understand why Bryan objected to Tudg^1 Parke-: being the temporary chairmin ot the National Democratic convention, bat as later events developed, ni? wisaom m doing so became apoa^nt. The norni- [ nation of Parker was a feeler, put out ( by the reactionaries in the Democratic i councils to ascertain their standing and strength, and had it g-.ne through without opposition, 't woii:d have been * . used as an argument tor tile nomination of a conservative o" standpatter for president. But Bryan caught on to the little game and exposed it., and in doing so he saved the party from defeat in November. The. so-called conservatives in the Democratic party stands :o.* exactly what the reactionaries in the Republican party stands for, while between Democratic progressives and Republican progressives there seems to be no material difference, as they both stand for popular rule and governmental reform to such end. The Democratic party is almost as hopelessly divided as is the Republican party, though by | a narrower margin. Of course, th? division in the party organization and in the convention is not so one-sided as in the Republican organization and convention, but it is there all the same. Bryan in fighting Parker was fighting for the control of the convention by the progressives while Judge Parker represented. the conservative or reactionary element. While Bryan lost his fight, his speech opposing Judge Parker put the progressives on guard and prevented the' nomination of a candidate who, while posing as a progressive, had sided with the conservatives in the organization of the convention and would have become their nominee had Bryan not exposed mm ana aecunea 10 support him longer, although instructed by his State for him. No Report on Hyde. Columbia, July 2.?The report on the mental condition of Saml N. Hyde, the Anderson county man who is unripr sentence, of death for killing his wife, will be made by the com-! mission to the governor early in September, according to Dr. J. W. Babcock, the chairman. Hyde has been examined by the commission and the report will not be completed until the return of Dr. Robert Wilson, Jr., of Charleston, from Europe. Hyde is at the Statp Denitentiarv. NOMINATIONS. 4 For United States Senate. I hereby announce myself a candidate for the United States Senate, subject to the rules of the Democratic par ty.
