The Republican Party.

Is
It's history, it is on the eve of disso-
luton There are men that proph-
esy that the Republican party will
never present another Presidential
candidate, but they are either very
thoughtless or braggarts.
II is admitted on all sides that
the absorbing question of the re-
cent campaign was the tariff. Though
other issues were at stake, this one
great problem was enough to oc-
cupy the minds of the people. The
Republican party stood by the pro-
tective principle aud was beaten on
that point and that alone. The bal
ance of power was held by men who
wished 10 see new experiment
tried. But thc Democracy, so bit
ter. so yinlictiyc, and for the time
being SO successful in its demand
for fieo trade. or tariff reform, is
still party OF opposition.
The election was won by the Dem
ocrats not because they are united
ON now tariff policy, but because
elements iu thc Republican party
were discOutcutcd with the McKin-
ley law The Republican party
fought eallantly against the ideas of
low tariff mee ON it's own side,
against th. opposition of the solid
South. aiue, tine enormous boss
controlled vote of the vicious and
.guoau, element i'm the cities
where the Democratic victory was
mostly against the friends of
dishonest money and against the
newly settled farmers of the great
West, vino had been taught TO be-
liaye by the Democratic press that
protected industries were getting
rich mt their expense.
The odds were too great for the
@e'pblican party or any political
rn!y g. overcome in one campaign.
Wc hGr seen the pendulum swing
farther way from Republican sue
cess and it will surely come back
again.
The reason is that the very

STAMP SAVINGS.
Plan That Will Be Tried Among the Bos
ton Schools.

Plan That Will Be Tried Among the Bos-
ton Schools.
1t is proposed to introduce the stamp savings
bank, or, as it is better known, the stamp saw
ings system, into the Boston public schools, and
an order to this end is now before the school
board. The system, which is under the charge
Of a society Of the same name, has a central
Office, where are to be obtained brightly colored
stamps of six denominations and stamp cards.
There are branches established in schools or
factories, wherever one person can be found
who will be responsible for the money and who,
by virtue Of his work, which, by the way, is
voluntary, il called treasurer.
This local treasurer obtains from the central
Office as many stamps and stamp cards as he
thinks he is likely to have depositors. To each
person wishing to become depositor the local
treasurer gives q card and sells as many stamps
as he has money for. These stamps must be
pasted on the card. The card when full will
probably contain about IS. As soon as the
child has stamps for that sum the money is
taken and deposited for him in some savings
posted he begins again, and the small sum
grows to larger one under his hands.
If he wishes to withdraw he presents his card
and draws al that is on 1t. Then if he has more
money than he cares to use he calls for another
card and redeposits the balance. By this
method all bookkeeping is avoided, the child
always knows just how much he has, and the
local treasurer can tell in the same manner. II
the child loses the card, however, he loses his
money, or rather all that he carried ON that
card.

WORLDS FAIR ROOFS LEAK.
The Interior OF the Great Manufacture
Building Flooded.

The Interior OF the Great Manufactures
Building Flooded.
During the rain storm at Chicago yesterday
the interior Of the great manufactures building
was flooded. Workmen engaged in fixing up
booths dropped their tools and hurried away
from the floods Of water which fell upon the
floor. Half dozen foreign countries had to
suspend operations, and Director General Da-
Wis stopped the unloading of exhibits.
Early in the forenoon Col Davis received Q
protest from Commissioner Renwick in charge
Of the New South Wales exhibit. Mr.. Renwick
declared that he had been ready for two weeks
to install his exhibit, but that be feared the
leaky condition Of the roof. The Belgian COM
missioner also sent formal protest to the di-
rector general. On Belgium space was a coat
Of water an inch deep and the workmen had to
leave the space.
It was o'clock in the afternoon and while
the wind and rain storm was raging that Di-
rector General Davis grew desperate. Calling
Maj. Fred Bracket, the government officer who
looks after the opening Of the cars which con-
tain the foreign exhibits, he ordered him to
have no more bonded cars released, and long
train Of exhibits from foreign countries was
forced to stand still.

THE BUSH TEST CASE.

Testimony to Show Defendant Had No L.
c<nse Under the New Law.
Yesterday afternoon, after The Stars re-
port closed in the Bush liquor case, counsel
discussed the stipulation of facts prepared for
submission to the court, but they were unable
to agree upon the facts submitted and the
court called for the proof in the case.
Mr.. Pugh said he would call Policeman Steep
as the first witness. The officer appeared and
after swearing to the information he was put on
the stand.
His evidence was that he went into the Ban
ner Brewing Company's establishment, Of
which Henry Bush, the defendant. is manager.
He went in there with Officer McGrath and
they each got beer BY the bottle and were per-
mitted to drink it on the premises. Witness
explained how the bar was arranged and said
he Jaw other persons in there.
Policeman McGrath was next called and he
gave similar testimony.
The prosecution then called License Clerk
Montague to prove that the defendant had no
license under the new law. He produced his
books, showing the licenses held by the de-
PENDANT under the old law, and said he had not
even applied for . license under the new law.
Witness was questioned by counsel for de-
PENDANT as to what position he held He said
he held the position of license clerk and not
that Of clerk to the excise board, as provided by
the new law.
Counsel thereupon moved that the testimony
Of witness be stricken from the record, but a.
witness said he had knowledge Of all licenses
issued the court overruled the motion and an
exception was noted.
The defendant was then put on the stand and
produced his licenses. He admitted that he
was the Bush charged in the information, and
he also admitted that he sold beer. The pro-
duction Of his licenses caused . discussion be-
tween counsel, but both Mr.. Hazelton and Mr..
