T. B. REED RENOMINATED.
Speech in Which the "Czar'' Noted the
Dearth of Political Feeling.

PORTLAND, Me, Aug. 1.-The Republic
ans of the First congressional district held
their convention here to-day. After prelim-
mary business the name of Thomas
Bracket Reed was presented to the con-
vention and he was nominated by acclama-
ton amid much enthusiasm. Later Mr..
Reed appeared on the floor of the hail. He
was greeted with deafening applause. which
prevailed until Mr.. Reed began to speak.
Then some one shouted "Take the plat
form!" No said Mr.. Reed, Let me have
my way once" and the convention broke
into laughter. Mr.. Reed then said in part:
''Al over the country there is dearth
of political feeling. L never knew less of it
in all the years in which have known of
such things. To me this seems fortunate
for the country. l do not refer to the war
alone. The war is taking care of itself and
seems likely to be soon finished by the fight
ing qualities Of our soldiers; qualities not
diminished by thirty-three years of peace,
neers and sailors, which skill the general
derfully increased. The unfaltering courage
of both soldiers and sailors is cause of
pride to every American.
THE problems after war will be the most
troublesome and will demand the most earn
est efforts of us all. For my part l hope
that all these problems may be worked out
consistently with our time-honored and
dearly-bought institutions and with the ira
ditions of our wise forefathers."

THE STORM AT CAMP.
COloneTs Mess Had a Close Call for
Supper.

Colonel Durbin and the regimental officers
at Camp Mount barely escaped going to bed
last night supperless. The headquarters was
moved yesterday from the executive build
ing to the new tents to the east of the race
track. The cook tried to get a fire started
in the new cook stove but as no one seemed
to know how to operate it the chances of
going without rations for awhile seemed
good. The. cook was energetic, however,
and finally managed to win over the OBJ
stinate stove and announced supper to a
ravenous crowd of officers.
During the rain last evening a pie wagon
came into camp and was stampeded by the
boys. Pies are on the prohibited list and
as soon as it was known to a certainty the
man had sold out his load the colonel or
dered him driven from camp. He was much
surprised later to find pile of the pre-
scribed edibles on the regimental mess table.
Everyone did justice to them, prohibition
or no prohibition, even to the colonel.
E. o. Mccormick, traffic manager of the
Big Four, was visiting Colonel Durbn at
camp yesterday, with his wife and PasSen-
ger Agent Bronson. Now that the camp has
again settled down to a business basis and
the men have all received their new rifles
all hands will be instructed in the manual
Of arms beside the old foot drills.
Several of the members of the colored
companies are in the guardhouse as a re-
suit of a scuff1e engaged in Monday night
The officer of the guard attempted to ar
rest colored man who was acting in a
boisterOuS manner and met a sharp resist
ance from the man and his companions be-
fore they were finally Subdued.
Several mild cases of malaria are reported
in camp. Private John Griffith, of Jeffer-
sonville, who has been sick for several days,
was reported as worse last night His con-
dition is, however, not alarming.
