| The Ariti-Cyclorie convention yes
terday at Leavenworth, Kansas, nomi-
mated B. G. Seyas of Texas, for presi-
dent Of the United States, and O. H.
Rodell Of Arizona for vice president.
Seyas was nominated on the twenty
ninth ballot. The applause was so
great that Chairman Mix refused to
entertain motion to make the nomi-
nation unanimous. The following
platform was adopted amid the widest
cheering:
The Anti-Cyolone party of America
at the first national convention put
forth the following declaration of
principles:
l. The cyclone is foe to civiliza-
ton, the arch enemy of the people; and
public nuisance. Any party that
fails TO recognize the dominant nature
of this issue IN politics is undeServing
the support of the people. We believe
that II the government would institute
proper scientific inquiry INTO the cause
and nature of cyclones, this crying
evil might be oblterateu from the land
IF Franklin, Who bottled the lightning.
We demand, therefore, that the
National Government suppress cy-
clones in SO far as they may be cOnStl
tutlonallv suppressed by Federal inter
yention without infringement of State
rights.
= We demand that the circulating
medium be speedily Increased to meet
the requirements of people, who, from
any cause, may be unsupplled with
money.
3. We believe the time has come
when the hotels must either own the
people or the people must own the
hotels. Hotels being a public neces-
Sity, the government must own and
operate them III the interest of the
people, and the hotel men, from pro-
prietor to porter, should be disfran
chised.
4. Tariff should be levied only as a
defense against foreign poetry, and
even this tariff should be removed
whenever American poets shall con
cede their inability to supply the de-
mand for home consumption.
. Foreigners should not be allowed
to vote until they understand the prln-
cipleS of our party and SympathlZe
with them.
&. All men should be protected by
law IN their right to rest on Sunday
and every night in the week irrespec
tive of age or color.
T. We abhor the cornering of pork
or Of anything or of any body without
his or her consent.
! IMPORTANT RESOLUTION ADOPTED.
| On motion Of X Z. Guss, of Arizo-
ma, the following resolution was
adopted:
Whereas, the Anti Cyclone party is
not a sectional party;
! Whereas, the sinfulness of horse
stealing is settled, and settled forever,
/ therefore, be 1t
Resolved, That it is the sense of this
convention that speakers who are &C
corded the honor of addressing this
convention be requested to refrain
| from unnecessary reference or illuStra-
| tionS that could be construed as "a re-
! Election on any of the participants in
the late horse stealing in the fas West.
AT this junction Chairman Mix read
the following telegram:
CAMDEN, n. j., Aug. "a cyclone
this afternoon killed three laboring
men.
The APPLAUSE was so great for ten
e minutes that 10 business could be
| transacted. At last the Honorable
Guy Rutt, of Indiany, offered the fol
| lowing resolution, which was adopted
amid the widest applause ever heard
/ in a conventions
Resolved, That we profoundly sym
pathise with the three laboring men
! killed in the Camden cyclone, and we
hope that all may now learn the lesson
| that the tariff is no protection to the
! American laborers. We sincerely re-
greet that the loss of life was not great
ct in order that the lesson might be
more Impressive.
| Delegate Hooper, of New Mexico,
When asked if the Anti-Cyclones eX-
pected to elect anybody, replied: NO,
of course not. But that cuts no figure
Yen see, we vote for principle, and a
vote for principle is never lost"
| OPINION OF STATESMEN
BLOOMINGTON, Ill, Aug. 6.-Adlai
| +. Stevenson, democratic nominee for
vice-president, said to reporter: Il
| have read only a few dispatches in the
papers, and am not posted on the Cam
den cyclone. But this cyclone empfla.
sizes the fact that high protective
| tariff does not protect the laboring
man and never betters his condition"
BUZZARD's BAY, Mass, Aug. g.
Since Mr. Cleveland heard of the Cam
den cyclone killing three laboring men
he has not gone fishing, which Is his
| habit even on Decoration Day. He
stays III his room reading dispatches
| from Camden, and refuses to see even
| Bady Ruth. He doubts, however,
whether the loss of life is great enough
| to rally laborlng men to his support.
| Should no more he killed within the
next five hours he will give up and go
fishing in the morning.
| WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug.-Tn the
senate today Mr.. Palmer, of Illinois,
! offered resolution that committee
! be appointed to inquire whether a tar
! if protected the products of the shop
! in which the three men were killed by
| the cyclone.
Mr.. Springer says that If the Anti
! Cyclones, the ProhlbitionistS, the Peo-
/ pies Party and the Democrats would
| fuse, the election might be thrown
into the House.
