The .Relmncc' Harvester and Binder


An important advantage in the Reli-
ance Harvester and Binder is in the
plunger bolt being done away with alto
gether and a cam movement substituted.
WHICH prevents 4 binding apparatus
getting easily out of repair, which is
sometimes the cause OF no little delay
and loss to the farmer.
Another advantage of the Reliance
over all other machines is in the knife,
which is held in such a position that it
can be bound with wire and yet work
perfectly, cutting the twine as easily as
II a sharp edge were presented. \ dull
knife will not stop the farmers work.
Another advantage is in the light
draft of the Relit. ice, a l another
advantage is in the subot,s II of an

June lth. at II a. m, the convention
was called to order. and Rev. j. IL.
Barnes offered PRAYER. Prohibition,
''six years presidential term,' and for
eign ownership of lan,ls'' resolutions
We're then offered by different individu-
ais and referred to the committee on res
olutions. n lively time then followed as
to whether the convention should bind
its members to support the nominees,
whoever they might he. George Will
liam Curtis and others opposed the res
olution, and it was withdrawn. The
committee on permanent organization
reported that they had selected General
j. b. Henderson, of Missouri, as pernla-
nent chairman. Henderson represented
the anti-Blaine faction. lie was con-
Quoted to his seat amid great applause.
What the applause was for is not easily
determined, as the convention might
naturally have expected to have had a
permanent chairman of some kind in
the course of the evening. Mr.. lIender-
son then made speech. Whenever lie
referred to Arthur, Logan, Sherman or
Edm,lnds he was applalded; but the
name OF the Planned Knight evoked
such a storm of applause that the
speaker WAS unable to continue his ad-
dress. 1t was apparent that had the 49,,
600 people present been assembled in
mass convention, Blaine would have
carried it by vast majority. The
woman suffragists and other cranks then
proposed various plamks, which We're re-
ferred to the committee on resolutions.
The convention then adjourned until
eyanlng. In the evening the committee
OH credentials asked for further time
and the convention again adjourned.
June 5th the convention again met and
the varions committees reported. The
platform adopted declares for protac-
tive tariff, civil service reform, an ELI
cient navy. The Malone delegation
from Virginia was admitted.

Among the prominent figures of the
convention is Theo. Roosevelt, IL young

to be twenty, and has more chin and
