THE PROHIBITIONISTS.
Proceedings of tho National Pro.
hibition Convention.
General Clinton II. Fiske, of New Jersey.
and DIR. John A. Brooks, of Missouri,
the standard Bearers-The
Platform as Adopted

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, May 3l.-As the con-
vention hour approached this morning the
delegates to the Prohibition National conven-
ton began TO gather in Tomiinson Han, the
place OF meeting, which had been neatly and
tastefully decorated with bunting for the
occasion. The only colors used we're red
white and blue, and interpreted among the
festoons were many notices appropriate TO
the object sought 10 be attained By the be-
tevers in the third-pa-ty movement AS the
representatives OF the various States fled IN,
the forms OF distinguished leaders were recoR-
nized and greeted with applause. The first oc-
currence to excite general applause and cheer
ing was the entrance OF the New Jersey Young
Mems Prohibition League, headed by one OF
their nun Der bearing a golden crank OF huge
proportions. Each succeeding delegation was
warmly greeted, and thus much time was spent
after the hour at which the convention was
called to meet had passed.
It was 1928 before Chairman Dicfie Of tho
National committee raped the convention 70
order and invited the officers OF the W. C. 7. L
10 the platform with the members OF the Ma
tionaI committee. At this msment Miss
Frances E Willard appeared. moring toward
the platform, and was greeted with enthusiastic
applause.
Chairman DclIie then invited the past NOM
inees OF the party 10 the platform, and as those
present came in sight the audience broke into
loud applause, which was rcdoubled and re-
peated when John p. St. John came forward.
The formal organization OF the convention was

TRUST-MAOE GOODS.
The Springer Amendment to Break Up til
Combinations Known as Trusts.

The Springer Amendment to Break Up the
Combinations Known as Trusts.
WASHINGTON, May .@9.-The Democratic
members Of the Committee on Was and
Means has had under consideration the
amendment proposed by Mr.. Springer, Ut
Illinois, to place upon the free list such
articles on the dutiable list as are cou-
trOlled as 10 the product and price ny
trusts and combinations, but did hot
report on the subject TO the Caucus.
II is understood that tho committee
IS adverse TO the proposition. although 1t
Recognizes the necessity of Legislation
which will prevent the perpetuatoa of the
pSol System. The argument against the
Springer amendment Is that II will be
preludlcial 10 the interests OF manu-
facturers OF articles who have not entered
into the trust, aul 1t is probable that an
amendment Will be reported placing an In
ternal revenue tax upon such dutiaolc arti-
cles made by manufacturers who have ca
tered into trusts. 1t is as yet undecided
whether internal tax Will be levied TO the
full extent of the import duty. it beng
considered by some that a tax 10 the extent
of 80 per cent. Of the customs duties was
sufficient To prevent the formation OF COM
blnatlOnS.

OLD AGE.

A Pleasant View of the Transition from
tho Summer into the Winter OF Life.
Now. it is quite true that the great
majority of men, and even many COOL
Christ ianS, can not attain to the
thought of a happy old age without a
hard struggle. We have a natural
reluctance to the feeling that we are
growing old; we put it away; and
when something at last forces it upon
us, it is like the rush of an arme man
from an ambush, or the flake of the
first snow to tell us that the long. sum-
mer days are gone, and that winter is
1T hand. And yet. as you may have
seen, it is the transition which is the
most painful. When the first days OF
brown October show us the fresh
green leaves of summer, now sere
and yellow. dropping from the boughs
under the wind t:at walls through the
thin woods. VIC can not help = feeling
of sadness creeping over the hear But
when winter has come it has its own
enjoyments; there is the long, quiet
evening. the cheerful CLEAN of the
hearth, the closer bosom of the family
and of friendship. the pleasant memo
ries of summer, and the hopes of its
return-these give to winter its glad
ness. and even its glow. If we are in
this transition. or nearing il, we
should seek 10 realize it, and to rise
above it by looking forward. Every
time of life 10 true man is only
transition 10 something better Il
am growing old; yes. 1 am growing
old; Lord. teach me 10 count my
days, and to look not so much visit
fully back rs hopefully forward, for
ward. forward to the quiet peace and
happy thoughts which God can give
in winter, and sill further, to the day
when winter shall be past. and the
rains over and gone, and the time OF
the singing of birds shall again have
come. "-ReU. Joh,, 6er, D. D.

How to Do Good,

Why 90 you begin to do good so far
off? This is ruling error. Begin at
the center, and work outward. If you
do not love your wife, do not pretend
to such love for the people of the anti
podes- If you let some family grudge,
some piccadillo. some undesirable
gesture. sour your visage toward sis
ter or daughter. pray cease to teach
beneficence on large scale. Begin
not at the next door. but within your
own door; then with your next neigh
Dor. whether relative, servant or SUI
pcrior. Account the man you meet
the man you are to bless Give him
such things as you have. How can
make him or her happier?" This is
the question. If q dollar will do it,
give the dollar. If advice will do it
give advice. If Il look. smile. or a
warm pressure of the hand, or a tear,
will do it, give the look, smile, hand
or tear. But never forget that the
happiness of our world is a mountain
of golden sands. and that it is your
part to cast some contributory atom
every moment-N T. Ledger.
