ADLAI E. STEVENSON.
POOR MATERIAL FOR MAR.
THRDOM.

The srea. American public dearly
loves martyr. 1t can do without fire
works on the Fourth of July easier than
it can forego the delightful privilege of
weeping over its occasional candidate
for martyrdom. The martyr racket is,
in fact, the pubiic's favorite mode of
being humbugged, and the case of
Private IAMs is the latest in point.
From East to West, and likewise from
the British line to Mexico, the thumb
hanging of IAMS has been denounced as
a piece of blood-curdling barbarity; and
JAMS himself has been, metaphorieally
speaking. coddled and comforted and
CARRIED in the regulation aeeouterments
of firSt-claSs martyr. \ centagIon of
pity for the gulleless Pennsylvania
milItiaman and of hot Indignation
against. his publishers swept over
tine country. The fever has not
yet abated, but it has received some eff
fective checks. The eye-witnesses of
the Misunderstanding are beginning to
be heard from now. and their testimony
threatens to deprive the country of the
only martyr it has, in stock. They say
these yewitnesSeS-that the punish
ment of IAMS was under the direction of
surgeon as humane and gentle as a
woman. They say that IAMs laughed
about his punishment while it was be-
ing inflicted, and several times referred
to it in profane and vulgar language"
that 1.-The surgeons watched him closely,
and, being punished for fifteen mill
utes, he Mortified all present by asking
for chew Of tobacco. The officer of
the day held the plug of chewing tobac-
co close to IAMS' mouth while he bit off
a liberal chew. He then squirted the
juice in front of him. He also swal-
lowed some. aud when he had been I'D
Just eighteen minutes he became
deathly sick, and was cut down. He
was greatly distressed by swallowing
the tobacco. and for time he was un-
able to speak after being taken down.
And SO it seems that tobacco Juice and
vulgar bravado were more responsible
for the sickness of JAMS than the fact
of his being compelled to stand on his
toes with his hands tied to tent pole
Moreover, it transpires that this was
net the first 0ffense for which it was
found necessary to punish IAMs a!
Camp Black. Early in the encampmeni
he had been put i'll the guard mouse fol-
a breach OF discipline. and later he had
been compelled to carry rail for being
found asleep while on guard duty dur
ing the night. Altogether, he seems tt
be very poor material for martyr
and perhaps he has received about all
the heartfelt consideration to which he
is entitled.

PLATT Is CHILLY.
He Isn't Running Around After
DIR. Harrison.

tLr. Harrison.
New YORK, Aug. 5. - Ex-senator
Thomas G. Platt today emphatieally
denied the report that he was to have
conference with Whitelaw Reid on
tue political situation in New York. He
intimated that any overtureS for close +
relations between himself and President
Harrison would have to come from the
latter. With regard to the conference
with MIR. Reid, Mr.. Platt said that there
was nothing to confer about, and that
he bad not been invited to confer with
Mr.. Reid. With regard to the talk
about the president wanting to placate
him, MIR. Platt said he did not want him
placated. He had not asked Harrison
for anything since the campaign
opened. and he was not going to ask
anything of him. He had not been asked
to meet the president On the latter's ar
rival in the city. With regard to the
political situation in the state, Mr..
Platt said it was all right, Mr. Hackett,
the chairman of the campaign COM
mlttee, was running matters. With re-
gard to the report that Mr. Blaine was
going to make speeches during the
campaign, he said that he thought that
he would be making speeches as soon
as Mr.. Blame. Mr.. Platt did not know
whether or not the president was COM
ing to New York to look into the stu
alton. So far as he knew the Repubii-
can party in the state was harmonious.

SICKENING TWADDLE.
The Davis Convention So Dubbed
by the Mankato Review.

by the Mankato Review.
Hon. John G. Wise, the veteran editor
OF the Mankato Review. thinks the
Davis resolutions adopted at the late
convention are calculated to sicken the
people. "His defeat" says MIR. Wise,
might be disaster to corporations but
not to the people," The criticism un-
doubtedly reflects the views of so MANY
people OF all parties who are disguised
with the Davis literary bureau that it is
reprinted and follows:
There is a good deal of sameness in the
hlgh-faiutln Endorsement of Senator Davis.
passed by the Republican county and dis
trict conventions, favoring his reelection to
the United States senate. They usually lead
off with preamble TO the effect THAT the
eminent ability and distinguished services of
Cushman Is. Davis have conferred honor
upon the commonwealth. and that the loss
or these services would be disaster 10 the
state" winding up with the usual instruction
TO senators and representatives to use all
honorable means to secure his election
There is a good deal of humbuggery in
such declarations and it looks as if they
emanated from the head of the literary bu-
reau which the senator has maintained at
Washington. 1t seems as il there are two
sides 10 this matter of ''honor" and that the
senator is not little indebted to the state on
that score. To say that the loss of his serv-
ices would be "A disaster to stale that has
grown and prospered after greater ana better
men than he-notablv Ramsey, Rice and
Windom-were retired to private life, is an
insult TO those gentlemen and to the people
OF Minnesota. We fail to recall any promi-
nent measure that Mr.. Davis has secured for
his constituents. and when his accomplish
ments are eontrasted with those of the gentle
men we have named, they pale into puny in
significance. In practical results he does
not compare with his colleague. There is
one record that Mr.. Davis has made at Wash
ington that is not to his credit or that of his
state, and that is his adv ocaey of giving the
Pacific roads 100 years i'll which to pay their
Indebtedness to the government at a low rate
of Interest," sort of sub-treasury scheme for
the benefit of corporations. His defeat might
be disaster to corporations, but not TO
the people. 1t is sickening, therefore to
read such twaddle as is embodied in the reso.
lutions we have referred TO.

DENVER, Col, Aug. 5. - From all

that nearly every commandery will

indicate that by Tuesday. the 9th, there
will be 100000 people in Denver. The
rush to Denver is phenomenal. The
crowd is so great that the railroads have

them into passenger co cheS. In lieu

probable that at an early meeting of

ST.. LOUIS, Aug. 5.-The Brotherhood

pleted consideration of the report of the
committee on constitution. The most
important amendment of the many was
the raising of the initiation dues
and the monthly fees to an amount to
give the brotherhood 100000 a year
from these sources. There has been
some question whether the convention
should decree the new constitution to
be in force, and should run the risk of
sending it down to the local unions. 1t
was feared that some of the changes
were so great that the unions
might refuse to ratify the instrument.
1t was decided to submit the amend
ment to the local association by Sec
tions. The convention also decided to
