ILLINOIS PRESENTS STEVENSON.

Congressman Worthington, who pre-
venson, of Illinois.
NORTH CoRoLINA FOR STEVENSON.
North Carolina seconded the name
of Stevens on, and then there was a
skip along the States on the roll till
Texas was reached, and it's voice was
lifted for Gray.
Then came up the gray-haired
delegate Bragg, of Wisconsin, to
put up the name of John l.. Mitch
ell, of that State.
AS the ballot proceeded the flock
of States outside the Stevenson
coops came to cover with rush of
wings and futter of feathers. 1t
became only a question of time and
when two thirds vote for Steven
son had been obtained his nomina-
tion was announced. The usual res
olutions of thanks to the officers
were passed a national committee
notifications were made.
THE ADJOURNMENT.
The convention adjourned at 500
p. M, sine die.
WILSON on RECIPROCITY.
Mr.. Wilson, of West Virginia,
made a magnificent speech upon
taking the chair at the convention.
Hear what he says about reciprocity:
"But, gentlemen we are confronted
with new cry in this campaign.
The Republican party, says Governor
Mckinley, now stands for protection
and reciprocity. He was for protec
tion alone when he framed his bill in
Ic
beneficiaries to frame it for him, and
firmly resisted all efforts of the
statesman from Maine to annex
reciprocity added by the Senate
You may explore the pages OF
burlesque literature for anything
more supremely ludicrous than the
SO called reciprocity of the Mckinley
bill.
''It is not reciprocity at all. It is
retaliation, and worst of all, retalia-
ton on our own people. 1t Furnishes
American citizens for the necessities
or the follies of other people. 1t says
to few small countries south of US:
IF you are forced by your necessities
or led your follies to make bread
higher or scarcer to your people, We
will make shoes and sugar higher
and scarcer to our people,
"And now we are told that recip
rocity is to be their battle cry.
Already we are regaled with pictures
of Benz jamin Harrison clad in armol
and going forth to battle for recip
rocity on a plumed steed. Simple
Simon fishing for whales in his
mothers rain barrel and in great
triumph capturing an occasional
| wiggle waggle is the only true
realistic picture of the reciprocity Of
the Mckinley bill.
"We are for the protection thai
| protects and for the reciprocity thaI
reciprocates. We are in favor Of
protecting every man in the enjoy
ment of the fruit OF his labor
diminished only by his proper con
trlbution to the support of tn,
government, and we are for that rea
reciprocity, not through dickerine
diplomacy and presidential procla
nations, but by laws of Congress
that removes all unnecessary obsta
cles between the American produce
and the markets he is obliged t.
seek for his products"
