[" Sherbrooke Daily Record.Established 1897 SHERBROOKE, QUE.SATURDAY JUNE, 22 1912.ONE CENT DEMOCRATS MAY JOIN ROOSEVELT PARTY.Revolt Against Parker Selection as Chairman oi Democratic Convention\u2014Bryan Issues Call\u2014Latest News From Chicago.ROOSEVELT'a NAME MAY NOT BE PRESENTED.Chicago, 111., June 22.\u2014(Special)\u2014 It was the hope of the party leaders as the fifty day of the fifteenth Republican national convention opened, to conclude the convention late tonight.The lenders were inclined to think, without wishing to be arbitrary, that all the necessary work of the convention could be accomplished by that time.The leaders have agreed upon a tentative programme, which, however, will be subject to possible sudden change if there are unexpected developments on the floor of the convention.According to this programme there will be morning, afternoon and night sessions, with nomination of presidential and vice-presidential candidates as the climax of the final session.But if events force the convention over until Monday, it was intimated that there would no at least two days of debate next week before a conclusion had been reached.Borne of the politicians talk of elusive rumors which could be taken to indicate that perhaps yesterday\u2019s prosaic happenings were but the calm before another storm.It was strongly indicated that Col.Roosevelt\u2019s name would not be presented to tbe convention at all, except without ids consent.His final instructions to ins leaders were that his name should he withheld.It was pointed out, however that Colonel Roosevelt\u2019s expressed desire in this regard might not control those delegates from states where fiat Roosevelt instructions were given.With Colonel Roosevelt out of the fight in this convention, and President Taft\u2019s renomination apparently a foregone conclusion, the chief interest centred in the nominee for Vice-President.Sherman, Governor Hadley, Senator Kenyon of Iowa, Senator Borah of Idaho, Dr.Nichols Murray Butler, of New York, and John Wanamaker, of Philadelphia, were most frequently named in connection with the vice-presidency.The leaders chose to avoid a discussion of the vice-presidential question until they had com pleted the nomination of presidential candidates.Chicago, June 22.\u2014 (Special)\u2014 That Theodore Roosevelt will be a candidate for the Presidency of the United States is probable, though his nomination will not come from the Republican convention as at present constituted.An independent convention immediately following will probably name the Colonel, though this may even he delayed.Roosevelt will, however, he on the ticket next fall, as a Progressive.In view of Alton B.Parker\u2019s election as .temporary chairman of the Democratic convention, there is talk of a Roosevelt combination with Progressive Bryan wing of the Democra-t c party.At any rate Roosevelt will hope to draw large support from this section of the democracy.BRYAN TO ATTACK PARKER.Chicago, June\t22.\u2014Branding ex- Judge Alton B.Parker as a \u201creactionary,\u201d William Jennings Bryan yesterday telegraphed to a number of prominent Democrats throughout the country, appealing to them to join him in preventing the election of Judge Parker as temporary chairman of the Baltimore convention.The telegrams were addressed to Speaker Clark, Governor Wilson, of New Jersey, Governor Burk, of North Dakota, Governor Foss of Massachusetts, Governor Baldwin of Connecticut aid Mayor Gaynor of New York city.Mr.Bryan announced that he wTould leave for Baltimore to-morrow morning.Colonel Bryan\u2019s appeal follows : \u201cIn the interest of harmony I suggested to the sub-committee of the Democratic National Committee the advisability of recommending as temporary chairman some progressive acceptable to the leading progressive candidates for the presidential nomination.I took it for granted that no committeeman interested in Democratic success would desire to offend the members of a convention overwhelmingly progressive, by naming a reactionary to sound the keynote of the campaign.Eight members of the subcommittee, tiowever, have, over the protest of the remaining eight, agreed upon not only a reactionary, but upon the one Democrat who, among those not candidates for the presidential nomination, is, in the eyes of the public most conspicuously identified with the react onary element of the party.I shall be pleased to join you and your friends ir' opposing bis selection by the full committee, or by the convention.Kindly answer here.\u201d Mr.Bryan declined to discuss Ins action further than to say that the telegram speaks plainly for itself.WILL AID ROOSEVELT.It came out to-day that the Bryan forces fear the spectre of Theodore Roosevelt.They believe lie will run as an independent candidate for President and that he will make war on special interests and bosses as lie did in the primary.In the selection of Parker it is pointed out that.Roosevelt will he given an opening vigorously to attack the Democratic convention.¦'Theodore Roosevelt will parade up and down this country,\u201d said one of Bryan\u2019s friends to-day, \u201cwith the battle cry that the Republicans at i Chicago, at the behest of the special j interests selected Elihu Root an at-1 torney for Thos.F.Ryan, to act us, temporary chairman and to sound the keynote speech, ami the Democratic convention at the behest of the same influences selected Alton B.Parker, another attorney of Thomas F.Ryar'.We are placing ourselves in the position to be classed with the Republicans at Chicago.With the cry of Ryan influence in both Wall street and both conventions, thousands of votes will be lost to the Democratic ticket.\u201d It is not so much Judge Parker\u2019s keynote speech that the Bryan people fear as the act of selecting Parker, when he is favored by the Murphy-Ryan-Belmont-Sheehan forces.The effect of this upon the Progressive vote of the country, it is said, may prove disastrous, unless a man is nominat-fil who is known to he beyond the iri-fluences of the Wall Street combination.INTERESTING DAY AT j City and Town I Building COKRESS

Queen Ends To-Morrow.REVENUE OF YOUNG PRIljiCE WILL NOW BE $500,000 A YEAR.London, June 22.\u2014(Special)\u2014The Prince of Wales will attain his legal majority to-morrow and, although tire day will nut be marked by any general celebration of an official or popular character, it will mean a great change in the life of the young prince and heir to the British throne.To-morrow the provisional regency of the Queen, created in the event of the e-esé: PRINCE OF WALES prolonged absence of or dire misfortune to the King, terminates, for henceforth in any such eventuality the Prince of Wales, being of age, would be legally able to take tire King's place, either as regent or gs heir to the throne.Heretofore the Prince of Wales, although the oldest sou and prospective heir to the throne, has enjoyed few privileges beyond those which naturally fell to tiie lot of the royal children.It is true, tiie superiority of his age and position gave him some advantage over his brothers and sister, but like the latter he was under the strict control and supervision of his parents, a supervision not merely nominal, but actual and extending over his family life, his studies, recreations and associations.All this will in a measure be changed from now on.For his use special separate suites have been prepared under the supervision of Queen Mary at Buckingham and Windsor Palaces, and later on adequate establishments will probably be arranged for the young prince at York House and Frogmore House.The Prince of Wales\u2019 suite at Windsor consists of a dining room, breakfast room, two reception rooms and a bed and dressing room, as well as apartments lor the members of the prince's future household.Similar provisions have been made at Buckingham Palace.The young prince will be well able to maintain an establishment of his own, as his revenues as Duke of Cornwall, which with his majority, come under bis own control, amount to about $500,000 a year.-+- CAPTAIN ROSTRON DOURLY

Sherbrooke This Year.FINE BUSINESS AND INDUSTRIAL STRUCTURES GOING UP THIS YEAR.The best proof that a city is growing, and prosperous, is the fact that extensive building operations are being carried on.Sherbrooke can furnish an abundance of this proof.In view of the fact that there does not exist, at the present time, a Building By-law, it is almost impossible to ascertain exactly how many buildings are now under construction.There are, however, a number of large and very important build ngs either proposed or under construc-t on.These alone are sufficient to substantiate the fact that Sherbrooke is growing, and growing rapidly.The first, and perhaps the most important of the proposed new buildings is the Quebec Central Office Building.This large structure, which will be modern in every detail, will soon be erected on the site of tiie present office building, which will be torn down.Tiie offices have been moved to temporary quarters in the Brooks\u2019 Block, and it is expected j that work on the new building will j be started immediately.Although tiie plans have not yet been made public it is stated that the building, when completed, will represent an investment of about $80,000.Situated right in front of J.S.Mitchell & Co.\u2019s new block, and beside the Court House, the erection of this building will greatly improve this ul ready modern section of the street.THE NEW PROTESTANT HOSPITAL.Another important building will be tiie proposed new Protestant Hospital.This matter has been under consideration for sometime, and tiie Board of Governors, it is understood has practically decided to erect a new and thoroughly up-to-date structure.The cost of the new building will be in the vicinity of $75,000.PACE PRINTING AND BINDING CO.A welcomed addition to the business suction of the city will be the new block now under construction by the Page Printing and Binding Co.This building, located on Albert St., will cost in tiie vicinity of $20,000, and when completed and equipped will be one of the most up-to-date printing establishments in the Province.Ground has already been broken, and it is expected that by fall it will be ready for occupancy.BANK OF MONTREAL.The erection of a handsome office building by the Bank of Montreal will close up an unsightly gap on Wei lington street.The foundation for this building is nearly completed and the other work will ho rushed along as quickly as possible.Tiie plans are said to call for a first-class building, and when it is completed will represent an outlay of many thousand dollars.BUILDING ON WELLINGTON ST.SOUTH.Wellington Street South has just been improved by the erection of two modern buildings.P.T.Lcgare Company, of Quebec, has just completed and moved into a large three storey, brick building.On the other side of the street is the modern cement block building erected by Messrs.Swallow and Placey.Both these structures are a credit to the city.INDUSTRIES ARE EXTENDING.One of the most pleasing features of the building boom is the fact that tiie large industries are increasing ! their plants.The Jenckes Machine | Company has the preliminary work for the additions to the present plant j well under way.Tiie sum of $100,-i 000 will be spent in building and equipping these extensions.The Canadian Rand, E.& T.Fairbanks, MacKinnon, Holmes, Ltd.and other industries have recently spent large sums of money in extending their plants, and intend spending considerable more during the present summer.NEW INDUSTRIES.The Canadian Brake Shoe Company\u2019s new factory will, in a short time, he added to the present number of modern manufacturing plants.Ground has already been broken and under the capable management of Mr.Phalen MacCullough, an old Sher brookc boy, the work will be rushed through with all possible despatch.The same may be said of the new buildings to be erected this summer by the Sherbrooke Iron Works, an old and well established Sherbrooke industry, which has found it necessary to move into larger and more modern quarters.CHURCHES AND SCHOOLS.While great commercial and industrial development is apparent by the large buildings erected on every hand the religious and educational Interests of the city arc not neglected.The t.ew Catholic Church in the West I Ward is about completed.Tenders were recently called for to replace St.Patrick\u2019s Church, King St., with i a larger and more modern building.(Continued on Page 3) DAILY NEWS SPECIALS FROM ALL PARTS OL THE EASTERN TOWNSHIPS OLD RESIDENT GONE.Richmond, June 22.\u2014(Special)\u2014 The death of Mr.Jabez

they are acting very wrongly because they expose themselves j to the most terrible dangers, weakness, pains, decay, premature old age and even SUDDEN DEATH through the ; strangling of the rupture.But many persons are exercising a commendable attitude to free themselves | from this danger.Unfortunately they do not always suc-: ceed.This depends on the lack of care in securing the proper means to cure themselves.It is not sufficient to enter a drug , store or a truss dealer's establishment , and to secure any kind of trusses with j or without spring.Such a truss must j be a real and an effective one.What arc the qualities of a good i truss ?1\twill indicate them to my readers so as to enable them to make a proper choice of their appliances.When you go to buy a truss remember well that the first condition of a good truss, the condition that primes all others, is that it must maintain the rupture perfectly at all times.You must consider as a BAD TRUSS and therefore not wear it : ^ If the truss allows the rupture to protrude when coughing or walking.2\tIf it displaces itself during the ordinary motion of your work, specially when you lean down.Wearing a truss which displaces itself is more dangerous than to wear none at all.3\u2014If the truss creates fatigue or is painful to wear, especially if it bears on the kidneys.4 If it can not be left in place during the night.r>\u2014If the buckle is too srfiall.The ball must cover not only the hole of the rupture but all the adjoining parts.If a truss offers such defects you must reject it without hesitation.The distinguished specialist from Paris will show to all the ruptured people that will come to see the patent appliances of Mr.A.('laverie, proving that they fulfill the conditions of a perfect) truss.It is absolutely certain that no other ! i/uss in the world can fulfill these con- ! ditions likewise.We must not forget that they have j been adopted by more than ONE MILLION (1,000,000) patients all over the world, and that the complete and radical : cures they have to their (redit, arc num- i erous.No comparison is possible between Mr.J A.Clavcrie\u2019s appliances and those of I other trusses.Do not miss this chance.It will be for you the HEOJNNINO OF A NEW LIFE.Deaths Reported MIHB AGNES WELCH, COATICOOK Coatieook, Jane 22.\u2014fSpecial) The 1ST ZVT M\tTVrXCJrXIT /* ' i a UF.anl» I RLE STREET PARADE AT 10 A.M. r t.SHERBROOKE DAILY RECORD, SATURDAY, JUNE 22, 1912, PAGE THREE, The y ally Record »HfflRBROOKE RECORD E1£U printer» and Publialiar».printed and published evenr afteraaaa, «xcept Sunday, at 100 aaé iOi Wei-Una ton Street, Sherbrooke.SUBSCRIPTION PRICB etrictlr 1* advance to any addrese la Canada, Great Britain and the United States, trie year, $2.00 ;
