The republican state convention adopt
ed platform the other day. The Bulletin
has carefully studied that platform and
as nearly as we are able to catch its mean
| ing the following is the plain English of
| it, stated briefly.
WHEREAS, it is necessary to perpetuate
the republican party, therefore be it
ResOEoed, That the policy of the party is
unchanged. We are in favor of elections
and an honest count north and south, ex-
cept where democrats can be counted out !;
the honest treatment of public debts, ex
cept in Virginia and other southern states
where reputation will catch votes enough
to elect our ticket; a reduction OF taxation,
that is that the amount held by taxpayers
be reduced for the benefit of republican
Office holders; a hearty approval of high
tariff which shall regard the interests of
none but the wealthy manufacturers; re-
form of the civil service that will enable
the republican party to cause its Office
holders and poor clerks to whack up
livelier on the campaign fund, this clause
to have especially application to the poor
clerks.
Resolged, That our state debt that been
honestly paid by wise republican manage
ment, except the greater part which was
paid by the Illinois Central railroad under
constitutional law introduced and carried
through by Stephen A. Douglass, demo
crat; therefore the republican party of Hi
nois ought to be kept in power.
Res0Ioed, That we condemn the shooting
of Garfield. but President Arthur is making
a boss president, and we propose to stand
by him.
Res0ioed, That all honest republicans
should close their eyes. stop their ears and
shut their mouths so that they will neither
see, hear nor talk about the rascality of the
dishonest leaders. and then we can snap
our fingers at discussions, and whoop up
our ticket.
Resolued. that we are in favor of Just
such laws as will protect the manufact
urer and the capitalist and grind the agri-
culturist and the poor laborer down to the
lowest Notch.
ResOlOed, that we extend our sympathy
to the oppressed people of Ireland pro-
vided the Irish Of America will vote the
Republican ticket.
Resol0ed that while we like whiskey our
selves, we would forbid its use among
common people, but we are afraid a plank
of that kind would send the Damned
Dutch over to the Democrats, so we will
leave the plank out.

THE ORIOLF.
Its September Festivities in Baltimore.
[From the Baltimore SUM-


The Order of the Oriole of Baltimore
viii hold general meeting on Wednesday
evening of this week, when plans that
have been matured for the September
pageant viii be reported, together with
plats, drawing and descriptive outline of
the entire procession, so as to show con-
clusively in advance the character of the
work which the young men of the city
propose to present this year. In 1881 the
Oriole display was purely experimental
and owing to the inexperience of those
who lad the affair in charge the result was
very far from being as brilliant or success
full as had been anticipated, though money
was rot wanted to secure far different
ends had it been properly applied. Since
then, however the Order of the Oriole has
been organized on a basis somewhat
similar to the Mardi Gras secret orders of
New Orleans. A large and intelligent
committee was sent to the Crescent City
last march to witness the Mardi Gras pro-
cession, and a subcommittee penetrated
the sanctum sanctorum Of the most ex
elusive of the orders, and the veil was
lifted for the first time to the
gaze of non-residents. This in
itation of several energetic and
and intelligent young Baltimore business
men furnished the key for the work which
for the past three months has been steadily
pursued in secret. In this work, too, the
The Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1877-1885, 1882-08-07

Order of the Oriole has been stimulated by
an ambition to present results which will
do no discredit to the New Orleans spon
sors, who will be largely invited to the
celebration and most royalty entertained
without cost The pageant will have as
the r0ison d'etre that it is for the celebra-
ton for the anniversary of the defense of
Baltimore, the heroism of those who held
Fort McHenry against the British fleet
and the birth of the song of the "Star-
Spangled Banner" In all the history of
Baltimore, the city has never witnessed
such celebration of these events as this
September will present under the auspice les
of the Order of the Oriole In addition to
this patriotic foundation business will be
combined with sentiment and pleasure.
The celebration will inaugurate the fall
business season-a time of year when the
weather and the city are usually at their
brightest and best. Special invitations
have been extended to the boards of trade
of st. Louis, Chicago. Cincinnati Louis
vile, Mobile, New Orleans, Charleston,
Savannah, Augusta, Atlanta, Galveston,
Norfolk, Richmond and Wilmington, n.
C.-fourteen leading cities of the west,
south and southwest Some of these com
mercIal bodies will be provided with special
through cars to insure every comfort
possible for long distance travelling.
and for merchants and business men
generally, who may be COM
ing north at the opening of the season,
special inducements will be offered to stop
in Baltimore, where there will be the Ger
tainty of unrivaled amusement for the time
being. The celebration will last three days,
covering the anniversary of the city's de
Tense, September 10, and the two succeed
ing days. The programme will include
splendid military display, a royal day pa
geant incident to the reception of Cecelius,
Lord of Baltimore, and a grand night pa
geant of brilliant tableaux comprising a
larger number of floats than has ever be
fore been put on wheels in any city of
America. There will also be a brilliant
sssemblage and Il royal reception by card
at the Academy of Music, where it is ex-
pected Rex and perhaps the beautiful
Queen of the CARNIVAL of New Orleans,
the maids of honor and many of the royal
dukes and dignitaries of the Mardi Gras
festival last year will be the guests of the
ladies and gentlemen of Baltimore. 1t is
very greatly desired by all the members of
the Order of the Oriole to extend the ut
most hospitality to dignltaries of the car
nival from New Orleans in return for the
kindness and consideration shown the la
dies and gentlemen of Baltimore last
spring. and the social aspect of the cele-
bration will therefore be, no doubt, one of
its brightest features.

How to Secure Good Husbands.

Among the Zuni Indians, who have
recently come to the front by coming
east for ocean water, there is said to be
a social custom that might be worth
adopting in more civilized circles. In
Zuniland the houses belong to the wom-
en- instead of the men, so a man can
marry without first being obliged 10 buy
or hire a house. Marrying men are
therefore abundant among the Zunis
On the other hand. q man who marries
can occupy his wife's house only during
good behavior, the wife having always
the right to put an unsatisfactory hus-
band out of doors. This is a privilege
that would raise many an American wife
from abject slavery to the rank of equal
partner in the conjugal firm. But,
whether for husband or wife, the Zuni
plan is an advantageous one; it encour-
ages early marriages. assures every
woman of home, so that she need not
marry merely to get one, and it keeps
husbands in order. for almost any man
will behave himself if by so doing he
can avoid the onerous duty of paying
house-rent.- NelO York Herald

THE present Congress is the most reck-
less and extravagant that has ever held
high carnival at Washington. Its annual
appropriation bills, just passed or about to
pass, foot up a total of 1894, 513, $50,
against S216, 1894. 1873 last year, and $780,
in 1880. The people ought to call to strict
account every Representative who voted
for the ''steals" and extravagant items of
these bills.
The above extract is from the Chicago
Journal, a Republican paper that is not
given to exposing the shortcomings of its
party, but the extravaganza of the pres
ent Congress is so glaring and outrageous
that even so strict a party organ as the
journal is Disguised with the high carni-
val held at Washington.

Philadelphia Times (Ind.): The passage
of the River and Harbor Bill by a two
thirds vote in both houses of Congress
over she veto of the President, is an event
that may well strike the country with
alarm. The message of the President,
setting forth the objections of this extrav
agant Misrepresentation of public money,
unquestionably expressed the feeling of
the country. That he deprived himself of
whatever credit he might have earned
through this veto by his unconstitutional
and unrepublican suggestion that the ex
penditure be left to his discretion, in no
way impairs the force of his just denuncia-
ton of the bill and the action of Congress
in persisting in the robbery in the face of
this exposure displays degree of reckless
ness unapproached in the history of the
American Congress.

The Philadelphia Times, independently
says: Having turned out sufficient
number of democrats and seated enough
republicans to secure quorum, the cleo
ton committee of the house has now de-
cided to make no more reports upon con-
tested elections. Many of the contestants
thus temporarily dismissed or put off
have just as good cases as some of those
who have been seated. They could not
have worse cases than one or two of these.
But neither the committee nor the ma
iority of the house has been restrained by
such barren localities as law or justice or
