revising the tariff. 1t had formulated
tariff bill, which at first, was misunder-
stood. And that misunderstanding had
involved the party in crushing defeat
in 1890. But since then the tariff bill
had vindicated itself and the party.
The exports of American products the
last year had amounted to one thousand
million dollars, and the importations had
exceeded the average for the last six
years by hundred and seventy millions
fof dollars. The balance of trade had
been 173 millions of dollars in favor of
American industry, or 100 millions more
than ever. This phenomenal prosperity
was due to the economic policy of the
Republican party. That party also had
taken the great proposition of reciproc-
ity and made it part of protection.
1t was also the policy of the Repub
lican party to create coast defences and a
navy for the protection of the many bill
lion dollars worth of property along our
coasts.
The Republican party also had made
the old soldier and his children not beg
gars-but wards of the nation. Against
the constant opposition of the Demo-
Gratis it had given to the old soldiers
lover four hundred millions of dollars,
and God be praised"
Speaking of Mr.. Blaine, Mr.. Hale
said: II know that there is in his own
heart a sense of relief and that he will
do everything he can in the contest COM
ing for party success. And / know that
he will first at the September election
lead the way and afterwards contribute
his efforts generously as he always
has,"
Loud applause greeted Mr.. Hale's ref
erence to Mr.. Blaine, except when he
referred to Mr.. Blaine's affection, the
audience then maintaining a sympathet-
ic silence.
In speaking of the nomination of the
candidate for Governor, Mr.. Hale re-
ferred to the fact that the convention
was about, for the first time, to tender
the nomination unanimously to Hon.
Henry B. Cleaves of Portland, a compli-
ment unprecedented since the days of
Hannibal Hamlin.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Hale's speech
the committee ON resolutions not being
ready to report it was voted to adjourn
until afternoon.

ity; that he believed this to be sound
Republican doctrine and principle that
would be upheld by the people of the
country, young and old.
Mr.. Cleaves commended the admins
tration of President Harrison and the
wise and vigorous policy of the State Be
partment under the direction of Names
distinguished statesman, Mr.. Blaine.
There were cries for
'.Milliken, Millsken.'
when MI. Cleaves had concluded.
Mr.. Milliken appeared, and was
loudly eheered as he responder He said
he realized that the audience had already
been sufeited with oratory and he
would not be long. He always thought
on such oceasionr of the preacher, who
having tired his audience out by talking
over four hours, remarked:
"Excuse me if / am long, but / am
talking for posterity."
''And they will be here before you get
through, too," said on old fellow in the
audience.
Shouts of laughter greeted this story,
after which Mr.. Milliken proceeded to
make bright, but rather long speech
upon the issues of the day, contrasting
the record of the last Republican Con-
gress, with it's long roll of great acts of
legislation, with the record of this,
which has done nothing except to 'get
stuck in the mud on the silver bill.''
Mr.. Milliken having concluded, there
were cries for "Boutelle, Boutelle," and
Mr.. Boutelle was received with loud APP
plause. Mr.. Boutelle said that he
IoI thso th o.
Maine would not this year, as in other
years, give her electoral votes for the Re-
publican ticket. Especially was this con-
fidence increased by the knowledge that
the standard bearer was to be an hon
ored son of Portland, Hon. Henry B.
Cleaves. Mr.. Boutelle had little time
for a speech, as the other orators had
used about all the time, but what he did
say was good and received applause.
Before the convention broke up Secre-
tary of State Fessenden got adopted a
resolution that the state committee be
authorized to fill any vacancies that
| might occur in the board of Presidential
electors.
Convention Notes.
The Atkinson Company distributed
fans during the forenoon session of the
convention, and these were greatly ap-
| preciated in the heated hall.
1t seems strange that when the Repub-
lican state convention was in session yes
terday, the flag was not hoisted over City
Hall. We do not recall time before
when this has happened.
A prominent Democratic ward politi-
clan came into the hall just after Judge
Symonds's address, and said to a well
known Republican standing by the door
''Say, when will they nominate the sher-
iff?'' ''Oh," said thesRepublican, ''just
after the next speech" ooh, well,' said
the Democrat, ''then I'll be back pretty
soon; don't want to lose that"

THE EVENING.
Young Mems Republican Club Fittingly
Ends the Day.

Ends the Day.
The Young Mems Republican Club fit
tingly capped the climax of the grand
Republican celebration of the day by a
reception to Mr.. Cleaves last evening.
The rooms of the club were brilliantly IL
Illuminated and decorated with flags.
Outside Chandler's Band played until s
o'clock, when the victorious old banner
of the club that flew in the 'sS campaign
was again flung to the breeze decorated
with the new names for 90. In the re-
ception rooms above the young men of
the club had gathered in large numbers.
Among those who were present from out
of town were Collector Luce and Her
bert M. Lord of Rockland, T. NJ Higgins,
Esq, of Limerick, Judge Downs of Cal
ais, Hon. Stanley Plummer, postmaster
of the United States Senate, and others.
When Mr.. Cleaves arrived he was greet
ed by President Reynolds and members
of the club. President Reynolds intro
duced MI. Cleaves in a felicltous speech,
and Mr.. Cleaves responded, receiving
three cheers as he closed.
President Carroll w. Morrill, next re-
sponded for the Lincoln Club.
Charles S. Cook, ESQ.,, of Portland re;
sponded as an ex-president of the club
Among other things he called the atten-
ZION of the young men 10 the duty which
they owed to support the man who was
in this county fulfilling his oath of Office.
'fRectitude in public Office" said Mr..
Cook, lis made the sole reason by the
Democracy for seeking the defeat of
man who has been true to his oath as
every man should. And | hope that the
young men of this club will support
Sheriff Cram, as he deserves to be for his
honest course"
Ex-President Walter G. Emerson was
next called upon and spoke briefly but to
the point of the necessity for the club to
work in the coming campaign. Mr.. n.
M. Lord of Rockiand followed with pa
triotie Republican speech. Then fol-
lowed call for Mr.. Higgins of Limerick,
but he had left the hall.
The meeting then broke up with
cheers for the candidate.

The famous herb is spoken Of in Chinese
annals as for back as 1850 years B. c., at
which time its cultivation and classified

water over a fire one evening when some
tea leaves hanging over the vessel were

HOUSE DECORATION.
Hints for Country Homes-The Moorish
styie-A Rose Room.

Styie--A Rose Room.
Those who are about to reuphoister theft
furniture are advised by The Decorator
and Furrisher to try the effect of golden
brown corduroy velveteen, which on the
coverings OF seats wears extremely well
From the same authority are also CLEANED
the following suggestions.
One OF the beauties Of the frieze Is the
delicate, cloudy background into which
the flowers merge, giving al idea OF place
as well as atmosphere
pretty rose room has the wall covered
with plain cartridge paper in pale rose
tint, with a deep frie2e Of wild roses on "A
pale cream ground, picture molding d.
viding the two. The window hangings are
OF pink sateen, with n full ruflle OF the
same at the edge. Pane curtains OF white
dotted swiss are placed next the window.
A comfortable couch is covered with the
same sateen and piled high with pillows
also In the same colorings, while the bed
stead, which is painted white has spread
and a round bolster in the same material
The floor has q white mating Of fine
weave and japanese cotton rugs in dull
tones are used wherever necessary. A
simple screen painted white is filled with
panels of rose colored silk, and down pill
lows covered with old red corduroy I'll the
wicker chairs.
A delightful hall decoration consists in
covering the walls with chintzes in tints OF
pale green and pinky terra Gotta. There
can be dado of cream mating. A Moor
ish arch with a little drapery is great
improvement TO the hallway. All the
woodwork can be painted pale green, and
the doors and walls an ivory tint. The
stairs should have terra Gotta brussels
carpet, and the hall could be covered with
dark red linoleum, with good rug over
the center
J. flock paper is a good idea, which
should be painted either a warm ivory or
brown 10 give the effect Of carved wood
work. A wall filing Of paper, bearing a
large acanthus scroll in tints OF terra
Gotta, and the scroll frieze in amaglypta
wiped down to old ivory, would make
a charming decoration. The WOODWORK
should be painted a cream color.
Moorish influence is charming in the
country house One conjures up at the
name cool, flashing fountains in the midst
of the salons, airy galleries and arcades and
lattices cut with interlacing figures that
entice the eye in dreamy wandering In
and out in lines leading nowhere.
Rattan furniture has the advantage OF
lightness, allowing Of chairs and tables be-
ing easily moved in warm weather from
apartments to verandas and lawns.

Cleaning Silver.

The following recipe, says Jewellers Cir
cular, is good enough for retail jewelers.
to recommend to lady customers who ask
what to do with their silverware. The
operation requires a small sponge or piece
of flannel, a soft chamois skin, a clean, dry
buster and a silver brush. II she has no
chamois keep old, undressed kid gloves for
the purpose. Rub all articles that are
badly stained, such as eggspoons, etc,
with salt; it will remove stains more
easily than anything else. The simplest
way and one of the best is to mix little
whiting in saucer. with water enough 20
make a thick paste; to this add few drops
of household ammonia. Instead OF am
monia and water she may moisten the whit
ing with alcohol, or simply with water;
whatever way is adopted the process is the
same.
