M,KINLEY TAKES THE GAvEL.
Speech of the Permanent Chairman of the
Convention.

Speech of the Permanent Chairman of the
Convention.
When Messrs. Fessenden, Spooner and
Malone escorted Mckinley to the plat
form, a magnificent ovation greeted the
governor.
Temporary Chairman Fassett intro
duced his successor and after the ap-
plause had subsidized Chairman McKin-
ley said:
Gentlemen of the Convention-I thank
you for the honor of presiding over the
national convention of the Republican
party. Republican conventions mean
something. They have always meant
something. Applause Republican
conventions say what they mean and mean
what they say. They declare principles,
and policies and purposes and when en-
| trusted with power execute and enforce
them. The first national convention of
the Republican party met thirty-six years
ago in Philadelphia, and the platform
reads today more like inspiration than the
| affirmation of a political party. lGreat
applause.l Every provision OF that great
instrument made by the fathers of our
party is on the public statutes of our
country today. Every one of them has
been embodied into public law and that
cannot be said Of the platform of any
other political party of this or any other
country of the world. [Cheers.] When
ever there is anything to be done in this
country and for this country the Repub-
lican party i called upon to do it. There
is one thing that can be said about our
organization that cannot be said about
any other; it can look backward without
shame or hu liliation; it can look forward
| with cheer and exultation. IGreat ap-

Committee Oh Rules Report-Others Ash,
Further Time.
At the conclusion of the chairman's.
speech calls for Hon. Fred Douglass, the
colored orator, elected simply bow of
acknowledgment. Henry H. Bingham,
of Pennsylvania, presented the report of
the rules committee, and it was adopted
by reclamation. The report makes the
rules of the Fifty-first congress, Tom
Reeds, the rules of the convention, with
certain necessary notifications.
Ex-Governor Foraker arose in response
to the call for the committee on resolu-
tions, and the convention burst into ap-
plause that continued for some time
For the committee he requested further
time to consider this report. An extern
sion of time was granted, and the roll of
states was called for the names of the
new national committeeman.
The various resolutions which had
been introduced and sent to the clerks
desk were read by title and referred to
the committee ON resolutions.
1.-THE next thing in the list is the nom
nation of candidates for the presidency .
said Chairman Mckinley.
Senator Cullom, of Illinois, arose to
question the regularity of this order of
business, But the convention, suppos-
ing he had arisen to place some one in
nomination, complimented the distin-
guished Illinoisan with prolonged ap-
plause. The senator was slightly en-
barrassed but quickly stated that he
arose to question the regularity of the
proceeding of nominating speeches be-
fore the adoption of the reports of the
committees on credentials and resolu-
tiOns.
A glance at the rules showed that the
nominations could not be made until the
reports Of the committees had been re-
ceived, and on motion of Hon. M. H.
DeYoung, Of California, the convention
adjourned until II a. m.

CHICAGO, June ed Partridge, the
board of trade plunger, has given up
and has ordered his brokers to buy
up enough wheat and corn to cover his
shortages, which are said to be about
eight million bushels, nearly equally di-
vided between the July option of those
cereals. Within the last ten days it is
estimated that Mr.. Partridge has
watched a half million of his fortune
fade away. Tuesday ended the pressure,
and with check for nearly $3.50, 900 the
slate was wiped clean and business be-
gan anew ON clean sheet of paper.

the slayer of Jesse James, was shot by
Deputy Sheriff Kelly in his new dance
hall at 3:45 p. m. Kelly was standing

turned around when but five feet away
and placed his hand on his hip pocket.
Kelly raised his gun and fired load of
buckshot full in Fords neck, severing

killing is the outgrowth. Kelly gave
himself up and refuses to talk.

A STARTLING FACT.
SIXTEEN Pea CENT. OF llFE INSURANCE
APPLICANTS REJECTED ON ACCOUNT or
DISEASED KIDNEYS,
The Trouble Comes From Lack Of Care.

DIR. Lambert the general medical direc-
tor of the Equitable Life Insurance Com
pany, n. Y, said:
We reject sixteen per cent Of the applica.
tiOns made to . 8 for insurance. and have saved
the entire expense OF this medical depart
meut by the rejection alone of applicants who
had diseased kidneys, and who died within two
years after elected them"
This appalling statement coming as it
does. from such high medical authority,
should have the attention of our citizens.
There Is no reason to day, why people
should allow kidney disease to get such
a hold on them.
Nature sends her warning in the slight
pain in the back, poor circulation of the
blood. sediment in the urine. When any
of these symptoms appear, DR.. David
Kennedy's Favorite Remedy should be
taken in small doses at once, and thus
drive the poison out of the blood and
restore the Kidneys to healthy action.
To our knowledge this is the only medi-
cine that surely and effectually cures this
almost universal complaint.
We note the happy recovery of Mr.
Oscar Lambert, of Jerico, Mo-, whose
case has been talked of in the papers the
world over.
