The nomination was made unanim-
GUS with enthusiastic speeches from the
representatives Of the other candidates.
After the decision of the Platt forces
not to present the name of Governor
Morton, the nominati"n of Hobart, of
New Jersey, for vice president, became
certainty. The Mckinley force was
thrown for him, which was too potent
to overcome, besides, it was the general
sense of the delegates that the situa-
tion required the nomination of an
Eastern man for vice.president. The
nominating speeches were brief.
Bulkley, of Connecticut; Lippitt, of
Rhode Island. and General Walker, of
Virginia, were also placed in nomina-
tion, but it only required one ballot to
determine the result. Hobart received
53O15 votes, 80 more than a majority.

Bicycles In Vienna.

How far government should go in car
ing for the safety Of the individual is a
nice question, about which there is
much difference of opinion. A striking
example Of 'paternalism" is presented
by the regulations which govern bicycle
riding in Vienna, as set forth by a cor
respondent Of the New York Home
Journal.
In Vienna all bicycle riders before
obtaining permission to ride Oh the pub
lie streets must pass an official exami-
nation. They are required to ride be-
tween boards laid OH the floor without
touching the sides or edges of the boards
At the word of command they must be
able to dismount either right, left or
backward. Until the rider passes this
strict examination satisfactorily IL
cense to ride on the public highway is
refused.
That is all very well in its way. For
a government to take such parental care
Of its people is regarded by many as evil
dence of high state Of civilization. but
the fact is that, SO far as New York is
concerned, the most serious accidents,
those causing loss of life, have nearly
all befallen experienced riders. 1t is the
experts who are killed-those who take
great risks.

I'VE renew and emphasize our allegiance

taxes foreign products, encourages home

the American standard of wages for the
American workingman; it puts the factory

Indian War Veterans.

The grand encampment Of Indian
war veterans of the Pacific Northwest
was held in Portland this week, pre-
sided over by Grand Commander Thos.
A. Wood, and Otto Kleemann acting
as grand adjutant. The representation
of members was unusually large, and
was augmented by large attendance
Of the women's auxiliary, embracing
the wives and daughters Of the sturdy
men, who in the earlier history Of the
Northwest protected their homes and
families from the hostile savages. The
meeting lasted three days.

The Justice Was Speedy.

Paul Kamaune, kanaka, was hang
cd in the prison corridor in Folsom,
CAL, for the murder of Mrs. Ellen
Robinson at Latrobe, Eldorado county.
On May 6, 1896. The execution was
deovid of sensational incidents, and
was witnessed by only the few persons
required by law. The murderer died
without a word or tremor on the
scaffold. He was pronounced dead
exactly II minutes after the fall Of the
drop, his neck being broken. It was
the quickest execution on record, the
body being cut down just 12 minutes
after the prisoner left his cell.

party which in the past honored them,
and they had delighted to serve, the
convention had voted. 81S1s to 1051a,

his declaration, saying: II must sever

Amusing Children While Travelling.

A lady, starting on long journey with
two children, placed in her satchel some
pieces OF cardboard, scissors, and lead
pencils. After the novelty Of car riding
had worn off this woman produced her
treasures. One child cut the cardboard
into pieces three quarters of an inch
square, the other printed on each square
a letter. The alphabet was repeated
many times. Then each formed words
from the letters, and gave 10 the other
to make out. The mother might have
taken the game from home with less
trouble to herself but well she knew there
would be more satisfaction in making
it for themselves. Paper dolls were cut,
and extensive wardrobes fashioned from
bright coored paper that had been
thoughtfully provided. At the end Of
the journey, the passengers declared the
children wonderfully well behaved and
wished they might always travel with
such happy little people. The fact was
the children were ordinary children, but
their hours had been so pleasantly occu-
pied there had been no opportunity for
becoming weary and then disagreeable
