Has a Thrill of Victory in Il.

The very first sentence in the repub-
iican platform has in it the thrill Of
victory. The mere place of holding
the convention, never before cam
paign feature, was turned TO telling &C
count. "The representatives Of the re-
publicans Of the United States" the
platform begins, assembled in con.
vention on tie shores OF the Mississippi
river, the everlasting bond Of an in.
destructible republic" There 10 moth
ing far-fetched in this. The Mississippi
is precisely that, "the everlasting bond
of an indestructable republic" That
was the controlling idea with Jefferson
in making the Louisiana purchase, and
that is why so much interest conferred
in the seige Of Vicksburg. That fell.
citous allusion will serve to quicken
memories and suggest thoughts of
patriotism, and such memories and
thoughts always promote the welfare
of the republican party.-Inter Ocean.

1000 ordinary chairs for the grand
stand at the West Michigan fair
grounds. This will give the grand
stand capacity OF 1850 chairs, $50 of
which are arm chairs.
Work on the addition TO the grand
stand Is progressing nicely and it will
surely be ready for the great crowds
expected on July 4, the opening day Of
the races. Horsemen say that the
track was never SO fast before and that
the rain of Monday night did it an i'm
mense amount of good.

the literature supplied to the Sunday

illustrations of alleged victories won
by Americans over tue British in the
