Of his name with the cause which Is to
I've victorious i'm these admirably chosen
words: Great as Is the honor con-
ferred, equally arduous and important
Is the duty imposed, and in accepting
the one assume the other, relying upon
the patriotic devotion OF the people to
the best interests OF our beloved coun-
try and the sustaining care and aid OF
Him without whose support all we do
is empty and vain"
The candidates statement of the
national prosperity, and which the re-
publican party is confidently expecting
TO undertake, could not be improved.
II Is not n vain and grandiloquent as
criptiop of wisdom and virtue to polit-
ical organization whose record az every
stage contradicts the eulogy. Nobody
can refute the assertion--and we be-
lieve there were never before so few in
a mood TO make the attempt-thnt re-
publican supremacy has meant honor
end prosperity hitherto. II there were
ever before so many believers in repub-
lican capacity 10 mold the future, all
the signs OF the times are at fault The
proofs which in reality were always
ample have been even more clearly re-
yealed in n period of unexampled dis
tress thanin the long years OF weIl-being
and contentment- What the party has
done IL can and will do again 80 soon and
SO long Ms IL has the opportunity. IL
points the country TO it's adversaries'
broken promises, and 90 It's own accom-
plished deeds for a double ohject-lesson
In the art OF government.
There has never been un honest doubt
Of the republican candidates stendfast
adherence TO the principles set forth
In the platform which he heartily APP
proved before its adoption. But though
he did not need to give any further as
surancc on that point, his expression of
satisfaction with the direct and en-
phatic terms in which the party creed
N cnunciated is sure OF cordial re-
sponsc. They arc too plain and posi-
tive 20 leave any chance for doubt OF
question as TO their purport and mean
ing" and Mr.. McKinlcy's career and
character supply perfect guarantee OF
the wisdom and devotion with which, rs
candidate and president, ne will uphold
them.-N. Y. Tribune.

and pith OF McKinley's acceptance the
statement that "the platform adopted
by the republican national convention
has received my careful consideration
and has my unqualified approval"
'These are plain words" says the Rec
ord.
There In no froth or business about
them. IL commits him TO the existing
gold standard, as his party II committed
and as the honor and good faith OF the ma
tion demand. THIS declaration was what
the country wished to hear Mr.. McKin-
ley has taken the first formal occasion TO
put himself at the front, where no ought
to stand. We give him credit. He de-
serves It,"
Thus the Qualification of public opin-
ion. and democratic public opinion At
that, in the east goes on. Every day
Maj. McBinleyis more justified and his
courage and frankness more approved.
1t is only a question of time when the
whole country will recognize in his
candidacy it's only hope against the
flood OF financial heresy which Ia just
now the country's gravest peril.-Chi-

who really think. They are content
with the business OF the day, with the
events Of the day, caring little for the
morrow or taking heed what day may
bring forth.
But there is more real earnestness in
the minds and considerations of the
masses of the people than we would be
led to imagine, judging by the tenor and
tone of our daily press. And the events
OF the past few years have developed
this earnestness Of thought. Men have
been brought face 10 face with the
affairs of the morrow. They have been
compelled TO take heed what day may
bring forth. "a condition, not theory
has confronted them" Dwell, for a
moment, upon the position of man
who, year In and year out. has been able
20 sell his labor for good wages. He has
lived well; he has given his family far
better education than he was, himself,
enabled TO secure; he Is procuring n
home for them; he is giving them com
forts and little Injuries, the ability TO
do which cheers him at his work and
adds zest TO his coming. Let such n
man, through no fault of his own, be
brought face 20 face with the fact that
on the morrow there will be no demand

MsKi niey's Manly Utssraness ON HIS Nom
nation

The notification ceremony at Canton
possessed all the elements OF interest
naturally belonging to such an occasion,
and Il drew from the republican candi-
date for president n speech which con-
tains the substance OF all that will or
can be said throughout the campaign
In advocacy OF his election. Mr.. Nc
Kinley will perhaps discuss the issues
more deliberately In his letter OF accept
ance, but he set them forth with great
clearness and felicity. IL was n calm,
rcsolute and perfectly candid speech.
rejecting with accuracy the mental and
moral character of the republican NOM
inee, and supplying new assurance OF
his qualifications as leader and his ut
ness for the executive Office.
Senator Thurston in his formal mes
sage from the convention TO the can
didate happily defined the sentiment
which controlled the choice. The nom
nation. as he said. "has been made in
obedience to n popular demand" and
the uprising of the people emphasizes
the sincerity of their conversion TO the
great principles with which Mr.. Nc
Kinley is identified. From the certain
fact that the popular will directed the
choice at st. Louis springs the confident
belief that the choice will be ratified at
the polls; and there Is absolutely moth
ing 10 mar the satisfaction which that
assurance gives. for in this case the proc
lumatlon OF a political creed required
for it's full effect the nomination of the
typical American gentleman who is now
the republican candidate A man OF
less dignity of character would have
been likely to dissent with an affecta-
ton of humility from the estimate so
put upon him by his party and the peo-
pie. Mr.. Mckinley without a sugges-
ton of vanity accepted the association

that there Is no demand for IL at any
price.
Has not this man been thinking ?
Has he not been talking with his fellow
workers, in their hours of compulsory
idleness, of the reason for this changer"
Don't they know that they have run
their heads up against a condition.
How long does il take these hard head
cd thinkers to fathom out the facts. To
reach bedrock, to get down 10 the root
of their evil? They know that every
case OF foreign goods sold here repre-
SCENTS, say, $50 to foreign labor and that
IL represents 500 taken away
from American labor. II doenn't
take long 10 think that out. And the
empty dinner pail still stands upon the
itchen shelf, that dinner pail Which
was such "tax" to them in 1899.

WHEN THE AXLE BREAKS.

Tho Device Used on n P0nderous Truck
when IL became Crippled Down Town.
When a buggy wagon or other COM
paratively light vehicle breaks a rear
axle. near the hub, where axles usually
break, the driver usually gets plank
or light stick of timber, makes one
end fast under the forward part OF
the wagon, and let's the other end trail
To the rear, as a support for the broken
axle. 1t doesn't lift IL quite to its or
binary level, but IL raiscs II high
enough, and with the axle thus sup
ported the driver goes TO the repair
shop. The other day one of those inn
mense four-wheeled trucks used for
carrying iron beams and columns APP
peared downtown with broken rear
axles, broken at the hub on the off side
of the truck.
A piece OF plank OF light stick OF
timber wouldn't do for ponderous
truck like this. Two heavy planlxs had
been set on edge, with blocks of wood
between them ut suitable distances
apart, and then the planks had been
bolted together with bolts running
through the blocks. The two planles
thus held on edge were stout enough.
they were secured to the forward end
of the truck, trailing 10 the rear In the
usual way; the broken axle rested upon
them Mt pretty near it's usual height.
The wheel now In disuse was slung
with chain under the long high beams
of the truck.
While the combined planks were am
ply strong TO support the axle, still the
pressure upon them was tremendous.
and the square corners had been worn
off and the planlts had been worn away
on the under side until they were
pointed at the ends. thus bringing u
long surface of wood on the under
edges of the planks in contact with
the pavement. As the four big horses
moved on with the great truck there
was faint odor of burning wood In
the air, and now and then little trace
of smoke foated out from under tho
ends OF the planks, from the charrlng
OF the wood there by friction, as the
planks were drawn along the stone
pavement with the great weight of the
truck upon them.-N. Y. Sun.
