Regulation of Rates.
"It is eminently proper that this
convention should define the demo
cratic attitude toward the regulation
of transportation companies, and call
the attention of the country to the
indisputable fact that it was only
after years of democratic effort that
an amendment was made to the in
terstate commerce law authorizing
the commission to establish reasona
ble rates whenever it appeared that
an existing schedule was unjust or
unreasonable.
"The .national platforms of the re
publican party remained silent upon
this great question for years, and
the fact that the necessary change
was advocated by a republican presi
dent, who succeeded only through he
aid. of the democrat In both branch
es of congress in placing the amend
ment upon our statute books, does
not affect the credit to which our
party Is entitled for having worked
persistenty for such an enactment.
Further amendment to our laws giv
ing the federal government super
vision over the Issuance of railroad
stocks and bonds is demanded.
"The ffxlng of transportation
charges and the control of issuances
of railroad securities are- Insepara
bly connected with the actual valu
ation of railroads. The democratic
party believes the first thing to do
is to secure a physical valuation of
the roads, that is, a valuation of the
solid, rather than the liquid, assets
of railroad companies.
"While, on the other hand, the re
publican party, on a roll-call in the
convention, by an overwhelming vote.
tookv an unequivocal stand In favor
of a system of water rates without
giving the people the benefit of a

THE PLANET URANUS.
For a few months, therefore, there
will be. no bright planet visible in the
early evening. Our next visitor will
be the beautiful Saturn, but this will
not euter the evening sky until Sep
tember. On its return its riugs will
be seen to lie much more opened out
than when it disappeared in February,
so that in the' telescope it will be a
most interesting object.
In the absence of brighter planets the
iiossessor of a small telescope may
search for the faint Uranus, which is
in the constellation Sagittarius not far
from the bright star K. Figs 1 and
All of the stars of this region are
shown in the small map of Fig. 3, so
that with the help of this and Fig. '1
the observer should be able to find
this little-known world without diffi
culty. .
Uranus shines out with a dull green
ish light as a star of about the sixth
magnitude. It is said to be visible to
the uaked eye, hut it is probable that
iu its present position, surrounded, by
the multitude of stars in the Milky
Way, it cannot be detected without a
telescope. We know that it is a great
world, thirty thousand miles in diam
eter, and that as with Jupiter and Sat
urn there is probably nothing solid
about it. It is still very hot and prob
ably in a vaporized condition; it is so
expanded by its beat that it is only
slightly heavier than water. It is cross-1
ed by In in t bauds jnttt as Jupiter is,
and Li attended by four little moons,
each but a few hundred miles in diam
eter, and the innermost of which re
volves about the planet in only two
and a half days, but all of these details
ire only visible in the very largest
telescope.
THE STAUS OF THE MILKY
WAY.
After finding Uranus, the observer
will be well repaid if be examines this
whole region of the sky from Sagittari
us to Aquila. Even without a teles
cope the peculiar brightness of this part
of the Milky Way and its wonderfully
intricate, knotted, or cloud-like struct
ure is most striking, but with a small
glass almost every part of it reveals
interesting and beautiful details.
Throughout this part of the sky beau
tiful star . dinners are very numerous.
Of these the ones at A. B, C and D,
Figs. 1 and 2, are visible to the naked
eye as bright spots in the Milky Way,
while in the telescope they each appear
as a great swarm of suns packed close
ly together, the whole background ap
pearing as if covered with star dust.
The arrsrngement-of this multitude of
sans into great streams in some places,
their massing into clouds snd compact
clusters in others, and the separation
of the Milky Way into two parts sug
gests that acting upon his whole uni
verse of stars there is some evolving
force, unconsciously vast, whose cause
and nature are as yet wholly unknown
to ua. :
This region is also very rich in faint
nebulas and ia double stars. At E is
the Horseshoe nebula and Antares it
serf is surrounded by a great nebulous
cloud of such inconceivable extent Chat
light must require hundreds of years
to pass through it. The stars at I
G and II are interesting naked eye
doubles; the J.ist shows a striking con
trast in color, the larger stnr of the
pair being golden and the smaller blue.
. Above Sagittarius, is the Kagle, whoe
brightest star Altair is the standard
first" magnitude star of the heareus,
and above this is Cygiius, the beauti
ful Northern Cross, whose earliest des
ignation was probably the fabled Koc
of ancient mythology. The region of
the sky beitween Aquila, Lyra and Cyg
nus contains so many red stars that
it is sometimes culled the lied Ilegion
of Cygnus. ' The' star at L is probably
the most lieautiful double star in the
heavens.

Lies in the Fight Between Bryan and

It is conceded that If Guffey should
be defeated, which would be the re

delegation from Philadelphia, that will
end the opposition to Bryan and all the
fighting spirit will be taken out of the
anti-Bryan men. The Nebraskan'.-i

THE PROBABILITY OF RAIN It
may or may not rain today. The rec
ords show that the chances are
against it but the records also show
that the chances are stronger for rain
this day than any other day in the
year. For the last twelve years it has
rained three times on July 8. No oth
er day it is said has such a showing
to its credit. But at the best accord
ing to form, it is a four to one shot
that it will not rain today.

the bitterest in the convention. Should
it be decided against the Bryan men,
some of whom have announced their
purpose to "railroad" the Pennsylvania
leader out of the party in accordance
with the expressed wish of the Xe- I
braska candidate, unquestionably it j
will encourage the opposition to Bryan
to renewed efforts to defeat him for
the presidential nomination.
Xo sooner had the convention ad-
journed today than the anti-Bryan
men began to gather and discuss the
situation. At several of these Infor
mal conferences the consensus of opin
ion was that the Guffey-Bryan fight
furnished the issue on which the anti
Bryan men could take a stand and sup
plied the rallying ground that had
been needed in order to concentrate
their forces. It is asserted by the anti
Bryan men tonight that the refusal to
day of Temporary Chairman Bell to
recognize the demand of the Guffey
men for a roll call on the question of
sending the Pennsylvania case to the
credentials committee brought them
many recruits, and these added to the
force that has been against Bryan on
other points, promises a victory' for
Guffey tomorrow. On the other hand
the Bryan men claim to have Guffey's
scalp already hanging from the belt
of their leader, and declare that they
are not worried in the least.
Much is being made by the Guf fey
men of differences which Bryan has
had with such men as Roger Sullivan
of Illinois; John T McGraw of West
Virginia, and certain democratic lead
ers in Texas. Tennessee, Wisconsin.

fess to believe that the delegations
from these states are anxious to ad
minister a rebuke to Bryan for his al

declared in favor of the. nomination of
