impossible. The party had the
choice between the repudiating that
policy Of reckless and INSCRIPTIONS
Radlcalism or adopting it in perma-

In 1890 Republicans by the hun
dreds OF thousands cast their in

might be warned in time and recede.

result it is now absolutely committed

was fully expecting the appointment,
said:

"You are mistaken, Colonel Inger-

by whom were you elected then
if not by New York's yote?"
"God Almighty made me Presi-

Bob Was so astonished at this ke

Finally he said "Mr, President,

tender treasury notes and pay the
old soldiers th, difference between
the deprecated money they were
paid in gold, which is claimed az
a part Of the platform, is still going

The resolution referred to was
adopted by the votes ef the sane
delegates whose votes caused the
adoption Of the other resolutions.
TO test the sense OF the delegates
it was put, rs q single declaration,
before the Convention on its merits,
and not hsmpered by association
with other declarations. 1t was
adopted, and therefore became the
sentiment of the Convention By y
more emphatic and significant vote
than any other resolution. The at
tempt to claim that for this reselu-
ton the Convention was not respon-
sible because it was detached from
the others, verges on downright
idiocy. There it stands, and its
authors cannot get away from it,

iato the house, closing the door after
her.
"No-ncver, never again" sighed
Polly. Roy, darling, why did

aloud, aud then started violently,
as tall figure crossed the path and

MRS. 8RADFORO'S PARTY,

L wss Christmas night, and every

In some homes the 'old folks"
gathered their children about them !:
Ia some newly married couples re-

we're juvenile parties.
Mrs. Bradford had no little chill
dren, neither were there any old
people in the family. She was a
plump, rosy widow, and her house,
hold consisted Of two sons, twenty
three and tventy-one years of age.
Ihc mother might easily have pass
ed for the sister Of these young men,
and there was not happier homo
than theirs in Oakdale. On this
night it was, perhaps, the brightest

the walls; 1evers bloomed in the
windows; all the furniture shone as
il it were new, and in the dining
room fine damask, silver and china
set forth table laden with every
good thing procurab!e III Oakdale or
+ possible Of manufacture in Mrs.
Bradford's kitchen, in expectation Of
coming guests.
We have 10 relations, but we
must have a Christmas party" Mrs.
Bradford had said.
And then mother and sons had
pat their heads together to make out
q list Of people who probably had no
invitations for the night. There
Was little Jessie jackson, who lived
with the doctor and his wife as useful
