THE DECORATIONS.

Major Dave Levy, who had charge
of the decorations, did his work we'll
and tastefully. The balconies were fes-
TONED with bunting, while clusters of
small American flags We're hung all
around the interior of the opera house
= life-like portrait of ''Old Hickory
doomed up in front of the speakers desk,
while a fine steel engraving of De-
mocracy's young standard bearer hung

Long before the hour for calling the
convention to order had arrived the
kfrisl1y candidate and his friends put in
an appearance. 1t seemed as if the
sheriffs Office was the most desirable,
for aspirants for the place were more
numerous.
Mcqueen, Thomas 2. Lewis and
their friends were around early
and the manner In which the
mild and lamb-lilSe delegate was but
tonholed. was refreshing indeed. Frank
Jennings and his coterie were around
with the balance and did some hard
work.
Candidates for the county attorney
shin. in the person of ]. NJ Denny.
John B. Anderson, John NJ. Burton.
James Pardee and ]. A. Williams were
on deck soon after the doors opened,
while Joe Walden and Steve Lynch,
the candidates for treasurer recently
announced, strove to outgeneral
Whitehead, who had several good men
advocating his claims
DR.. Faust, Barney Quinn and George
Stringfellow's friends were doing all
they could for their respective candi-
dates, and the partisans of Mrs DR.
Ferguson, who wanted TO be county
clerk, crossed swords early and often
with the warriors of Clan Dunbar.
In addition to the we'll known Demo-
cratic faces which appeared in the
convention, there We're several new
ones, worn by men vino have hitherto
allied themselves with the party Of
promises. Oscar Groschell occupied a.
front seat, Ciesson S. Kinney sat along
side hmm; S. p. Armstrong was a con-
spicuous figure. The selection of the
latter on the committee on resolutions
provoked hearty applause.
Will Dykes was an interested Dem
ocratic spectator.
THE CONVENTION OPENS.
1t was 1920 when Acting County
Chairman Lloyd called the convention
to order Quiet was quickly restored.
after which Mr.. Lloyd feiicitahed the
convention on the fact that 1T had as
se1nbied when there was never a better
prospect for Democratic success. If

Celtic Art in rlodern characterization.

How seldom we hear of anything being
made or being built in the Celtic style, says
Fred T. Hodgson in Donahoe's. We hear
Of many styles, Indian, Persian, Egyptian,
French, Italian, ETC., etc., but IN the midst
Of al! these styles the Celt alone seems to
be forgotten, while, as matter of fact, al
most everything we have about us for use
for ornament, or pleasure, will, on exami
nation. show more or less of Celtic infIu-
ence.
In order to discover this influence we
have but to become familiar with few of
the characteristics that distinguish Celtic
art from the art of other races. It will be
seen that it is composed Of series of inter-
est.ng straps with animal heads as termi-
nails We have another style of interlaced
work, which IS chiefly composed Of circular
lines and terminal heads The central
straps form true pointed or Gothic arch,
one Of the main features in mediavel eccle-
5.astical architecture.
This gives proof that the long mooted
Iquestion Of who first used the Gothic arch
In church building Is settled in favor of the
Celt. for it was he who first built the Chris
tian churches in France, Germany and Eng
land, when the first Gothic churches were
erected; and it would be much nearer the
truth to. call the style in which the great
cathedrals Of England, France and Ger
many IRE built, the Celtic style rather than
the Gothic.
Celtic art has probably done more to aid
Industrial art to beautify It's production
than all Other racial arts put together. The

COUNTY CONVENTION.
Democrats Meet in Council With The
......a. 50 Utmost Harmony.

The Democratic county convention was
held at Normanna hall on Tuesday last
and was harmonious in every particular.
It Was all for silver in sentiment and put
itself on record as favoring John Lind for
governor and S. NJ. Owen for congress
from this district. A delegation Of 112
will go to the state convention with these
objects in view:
First-To do everything that is fair,
reasonable and consistent to bring about
the nomination Of Mr.. Lind by the Demo-
Gratis and Populists Of the state.
Second-To do everything that can
properly and consistently be done to have
the managers Of the several free silver
forces of the state get together and ar
range fusion tickets, national, congress
sional and otherwise.
Th:rd-To urge with good deal Of feel
ing and friendliness the candidacy Of
Julius j. Heinrich, of Minneapolis, for the
position of secretary of state.
The Chicago platform was cordially en-
dorsed and the delegation was instructed
to vote as unit.

his hand across his eyes as if troubled
with dimness of vision.
'pshaw! If I had love letter like
that" and then he was silent.
"Fair play" cried one OF the others
with an uneasy laugh.
"I'll read it to you, boys" said their
friend, "and think you'll agree with
me that it's a model love letter."

System of Trinity College,

Attendance on lectures is not cOmpul.
sorry; some students simply present them
selves at the dates of examinations, AND
pass the rest of the year it may be in teach
ing, writes w. F. P. Stockley, NJ. A., ir
Donahoe's As to life within college it is
like such life elsewhere with, however, al
the comparative absence of American cam
araderie-men not necessarily speaking tc
each other in the world, though at lectures
together, and with an ignorance Of any such
entities as students and faculty" with
like ignorance also of what a "class'
means to an American.
One of the things most to be valued about
such an individualistic system is the way
in which character has an opportunity Of
preserving it's independence; and this, il
seems, American colleges must have a
comparative tendency to repress.
In the matter of study the same free.
dom is seen. Lectures are held for but Is
weeks in the year; and an ordinary under
graduate has to attend only about two
hours day for half or third Of this time
In some cases attendance at lectures suf-
fees for keeping term, without any ex.
animation The result is that man anx.
ious to study or to read what he most al
fects has long spaces, harried by neither
classes nor papers. But one cannot help
Wishing that the University of Dublin
with its material, in men anxious to be
guided in study, men with leisure and with
readiness to Use leisure) were more awake
and paying attention to the best among it,
students, undergraduate and graduate, and
giving them help, such as being giver
more and more Ito the admiration OF al
who have beheld it) by the larger univer'
stiles of America. And in America the
material to work on is not so abundant
men here more instinctively hurry away
from college to set about active work.
The same contrast between Europe anC
America is seen in the position of profes
sors. Some professors in Dublin deliver
only some thirty or forty lectures year
yet such professor may be one OF the
hardest working; though not constantly
teaching. and though in his lectures he pays
no regard to possibly approaching examin'
ations and their subjects. In America, dc
we entice students to hang on too much tt
tine helping hands OF professors?
The word professor" there has, in fact
meaning such as it has at Oxford or Cam
bridge; fellows" mean more or less Amer
lean professors" but the fellowships, un
like those in England, are held for life
| with gradually increasing incomes. The
ideal at the close, then. is immense learn
ing, great past experience in teaching, ant
consequent power to take part wisely ii
the chief examinations-for the senior fel
lows no longer teach-and leisure fol
study and for enr.ching the world by i'm
parting knowledge, while the wise men O
old direct the busy college of youngel
teachers and taught,-a beautiful ideal
which both succeeds and fails.

the convention. Early in the evening
they selected Ignatius Donnelly for their
candidate as permanent chairman, and
sent committee to notify him Of his
selection. Mr. Donnelly accepted, but it
was given out later that the steering COM
mittee had held another meeting and Sc
lected J. E. Campion, of Maine, as their
candidate for permanent chairman. The
committee realized it was in very awk-
ward position, having notified Donnelly
and secured his acceptance. The reasons
given for substituting Campion are that
the Minnesota delegation and the dele
cations which the steering committee
represented made a great protest against
Donnelly's selection, many declaring
they would not vote for him.
And thus by the action of o1lr own peo-
