prevailed since the cyclone swept

All Roads Led to Convention Hall.
All roads lead to the convention hall
at Clark avenue and Twenty eighth
street. From that great Oblong bOx-like
structure which covers block, fiuttered
q myriad of flags. The great gilded
American eagle at the main entrance
flashed brilliantly in the sunlight. A
}. ;ordon Of blue coated police guarded
ethe entrances. Within, the officers and
employees were performing the final de-
tails. The staffs Of the various state
delegations in the low fiat pit which
faced the speakers stand were in place,
while the chairs in the double galleries
mounted steeply from the edges Of this
pit, into the cavernous depths above.
There were in these galleries seating
capacity for $4,000 spectators. The great
pillars which upheld them were swathed
in bunting and the rough ceiling 70 feet
above the pit was mass of color.
Around the galleries at intervals ap-
peared the coats of arms of the various
states. The stand from which on either
hand stretched the tables Of the press,
was ornamented with a beautiful silk
flag, while the gallery in the rear which

guished visitors looked out the
Faces Of Many Republican Heroes
who have gone to their last reward. In
the center was the immortal Lincoln,
fianked by those great warriors-Grant
and Sherman. Facing each other
across the east hall were large portraits
of the gallant General Phil Sheridan
and Admiral Farragut. the hero of
Mobile.
At 10 O'Clock the band of 40 pieces
took its place in the gallery above the
speakers stand and at 10 20 they struck
up the rousing air Black America

. The hands of the clock were at IL 20,
when Chairman Carter of Montana, un-
waistcoated, with wide spreading shirt
bosom, stepped forward and with three
fierce cracks of his gavel, by way of
preliminary, sought to make his voice
pierce the general rustic. The attempt
was a futile one, however. He was ex.

A murmur of curiosity began at the

seats and then announced the prayer OF

and his selection was endorsed by the
unanimous voice of the delegates. AS
Mr.. Fairbanks stepped forward to
deliver his speech wave of applause
ran around the galleries interspersed
with staccato cheers.
MIR. Fairbanks Described.
Mr.. Fairbanks is tall slender gentle
man. His features are aqueline, his
forehead high, his hair is jet black and
he wears beard. He made a strong
figure as he delivered his speech in clear
tones. His voice, however, lacked that
penetrating quality which reaches out
into spece, and he could be heard with
difficulty by those in the more remote
part of the hall, but when his words
struck a responsive chord the answer
was quick and spontaneous. AS he de-
clared, in his opening sentence, that the
nominees of the convention would be
triumphantly elected president and vice
president, there was a tumultous dem.
onstration of approval
The address, dealing as it did with a
review of the situation, was not de.
signed to fire the imagination. The
telling points which Mr.. Fairbanks
made We're, however, appreciated and
applauded. When he reached that por.
ton of his speech enunciating the Re.
publican doctrine of currency, his first
reference to the partys friendship fol

The fishermen Of Astoria, foreign
born though a majority Of them may
be. are not so ignorant as the local
Bryan managers seem to think they
are. Many of them have had the bene-
fit of an education and opportunities
for study and observation which the
average free silver shouter never heard
Of and knows nothing about. No intel
Gessnt man who has ever read European
history can be a free silyerite. The
fellows who run Populistic papers and
shout oppression and military domina-
tion to the fishermen Of Astoria are
simply making fools Of themselves in
the eyes Of these people. The free silver
advocates in this country are not nat
uralized citizens, they are native-born
Americans who have frittered away
the opportunities given every individual
under God inspired government which
immigrants from other lands have been
quick to avail themselves Of The re-
suit Is that while the American Populist
has been hunting some office or stirring
up discomfort among his American
neighbors Of the same low plane Of IN
telIigence as himself, the Ignorant"
foreigner for whom he feels so much
tender solicitude, has been assimilating
himself to the best manners and Gus
toms Of this country, and accumulating
a competence for old age and the edu-
cation of his children. There need be no
concern in the minds of the county
committee as to how the fishermen are
going to vote next Tuesday. The ma
sorfty Of them are very much better
read on the money question than a cor
responding number even among the
sound money Republicans. 1t is fact

most absolute verify that the dan
ger Of Bryan's election and the inau-
guration Of an era Of deprecated cur
