NO LIMIT TO THE LIMIT Ess /!

The Populist convention in Colum bus,
o.. cot into a lively row SO that the
polics had to be called in TO quell IL, all
decision Of the chair that thore was no
time at the disposal of the convention
to give him for the purpose of finish
ing his speech.
The point male by the chair will strike
any reasonable intellect as we'll taken. OF
course there wasn't time at the command
OF the convention to permit tho Populist
delegate to finish his speech. The protest
against closure on the part OF tho delegate
and his friends. if SO be it, IL had pro-
vailed, would have been unavailing so far
as any hone for hearing the speech to a
finish was concerned.
No Popullst speech was ever yet fin
ishod.
Ii is impossible that Populist speech
ever should DO finished.
The time of Populist convention i'm
session for con upon con would never
suffice to SEQ the pcroration of even the
breefest remarks Of a single delegate.
What folly for delegate TO raise row
just because tho chairman is compelled
to limit debate to few years or so for
each speaker.
AS we'll protest because the going down
Of the sun shuts off tho day, that nature
insists that pumpkin vines shall not
climb, that the law of mechanics pro
hfbfts TorT5TUat motion.
There are some things that it's no use
to kick against
And a limit upon debate in a populist
convention is plainly one of them.

And though our rotcenoe has made OR con

Wore up and dressed and peeking out to SEQ

We know the dear old lady when we see her,

No sleek docoy can hoodwink us no matter

Our salvos wait the goddess that we've known
in days Of yoro,
The Good Samaritan that comes 10 bless the
rich and poor
Who enters not the palace door TO pass the
cabin by,
Who never turns her head away when needy
ones arc nigh,
Who blesses 'evorywhere alike, with magic Of
her hand,
And tunes to hallelujah every creature in the
land.
If that's the guest you herald. then by all

And when we recognize her face tho gods

Surprising any glad acclaim that history can

And these United States viii wear smile

OF the discussion doubtless had good
deal TO do with the political oyerturn OF
November lS9a
Now the plan tscl. is threatened be-

mighty outcry of smaller landholders

than one-half Of tho total assessment

This is evidently staggerer for the

And yet Charles street ought to be

to the business interests Of the city.
But some other plan than that on
which the committee has been directed

What OF the price of wheat In the
futuref Is the rise now so remarkable in
the markets a temporary affair! viii
wheat go down again when there are
good crops on other oontinentsS 1t is, of
,ourse, true that heavy crops elsewhere
will reduce the price OF wheat simply
because they will reduce the demand for
It, There can be no help for that But
the growing OF wheat can be made profit
able. The first notable influence will be-
found in the increase by many millions Of
che consumers Of white bread
These millions were introduced TO the
better brcadstuf OF civilization by the
low rates thatipreyailed, and they have
acquired taste for IL. The same in
fluepces that have enlarged the wheat
producing lands and cbeapened the pro.
duction have found new customers-con-
-therefore markets so this great
matter Of white bread for the world will
adjust itself handsomely.

Governor Dyer'S Letter of Welcome
TO Rhode Island Shores.

The members of the Massachusetts,
Club sixty in number, and their guests
enjoyed their annual summer outing at
Pomham today.
Dinner was served at 80 clock and
this was followed by good speaking by
men prominent in political circles. The
after dinner talk was of a wide range in
cluding, of course, the topics of tariffs and,
currency
Among the speakers were; Hon. George
II. Hoar Hon. William Claflin, Hon. A.
w. Beard, ex-Collector of the port of
Boston. ex-Gov Taft and Congressmen
Bull and Capron OF Rhode Island.

times charged with believing that every
thing in Massachusetts, must necessarily
bo very good and the presence of this
distinguished company rather strengthens
us in that belief.
Those of you who have sailed up the
North Sea at night doubtless recollect tho
celebrated Texel light upon the coast of
Holland. You cannot mistake IT, shin
ing with unequaled brightness far out
to sea that the little fishing boats Of Hol-
land caught out in storm anu darkness
can safely lay their course for home.
Like tho light Of Texel, shining FIRST for
its own fishermen, but Just as brightly
and Just as steadily to light the navies
of the world. Massachusetts, caring first
for her own people by building doep and
high her institutions Of learning, OF
commerce. of finance. of charity, OF
science and OF trade, has erected towers
OF greatness that all her neighbors can
see and so luminous with patriotism
and enterprise that her benignant rays are
thrown out far and wide.
In closing. can only repeat nay since re
regret that 1 am unable tn be present
with tho Massachusetts, Club today, and
assure ysu that whenever the club cumos
GO Rhode Island it will be q pleasure To-
Us ali.
Very sincerely yours.
