The above is the gold standard coun-
cilmanic ticket, as far as completed last
night. The Third precinct convention
VIII be held this evening. Each con-
vention was in the nature of a ratifica-
ton meeting, the states prepared by the
party bosses being accepted in a per-
functory way. In two precincts all of
the nominees were selected by accla-
nation. Seven of the candidates are
Gentiles and five are Mormons. At the
Third precinct convention tonight the
Hanna machine programme viii be
completed by the nomination of enc
Gentle and two Mormons, thus giving
the two elements representation as fore
casted in yesterdays Herald.
A feature OF last evenings conven-
tions was the slim attendance, but two
thirds of the delegates attending in the
Second. The large number-of absentees
is accounted for by the fact that the
primaries named as delegates q large
number of men who have quit the
Hanna organization, and disgust over
the autocratic manner in which the
Jannan machine is running the party.

Nominations By Acclamation.

I @eOAA4AIIN SAOAAo OJ
Fred Loofbourow, when nominations
were called for, in a brief speech named
A. A Robertson. Mr.. Loofbourow said
as many nice things about his man as
he could think of, and when he fin
ished the convention rose en- maSSe and
seconded the nomination. A proposition
to name Rob by reclamation met with
a hearty response, and the action was
taken in less time than it takes to tell
about it.
Rob glowed with honest pride from
his seat in the rear of the hail. and
Kept on glowing until Frank Knox
named DR. Beatty. When the doctor
was named by reclamation and Rob
saw that it wasn't an individual COM
pliment he had received, he simmered
perceptibly. The Simmering was even
more apparent after Chairman Daveler
had nominated r. C. Gemmell, and he,
too. was chosen by reclamation.
When the question of naming repre-
sentatives of the Fifth in the city COM
mittee came up, Joe Cottle
moved that the matter be left
to the councilmanic nominees.
His motion carried, Charley Post
being about the only delegate who
voted against it. On motion of Loot
borrow, it was agreed that the district
chairman should act as a precinct
committee, ana at the suggestion OF
Judge Wenger. Mr.. DaYeler was chosen
chairman of that committee.
Machine Feature Apparent.
The machine feature of the conven-
ton was specially marked in the next
order of business. This was in the Sc
lection of representatives on the COM
mittees on credentials. resolutions and
permanent organization for the city
convention. Alvira c. Snow, son of
President Snow, was named for the first
without opposition. Then Frank Knox,
a banker, got place on the resolutions,
and after Robertson had Whispered
something to Eichnor. the latter named
John Z. Dolly for the organization
committee
This wound up the business, and the
convention adjourned after a session
that didn't last three-quarters of an
hour. After it was over it was suggest
ed to Fred Loofbourow that it was
hardly fair to take snap judgment on
DR.. Beatty and nominate him in his
absence from the state, without giving |
him a chance TO decline.
"Oh, he won't decline" was the reply.
Beatty has been wanting to get into |
the council for some time

MACHINE WE'LL OILED.
Everything In the Fifth Went
Through Smoothly.

Alexander Astute Robertsons little
Fifth precinct machine was so beauti-
fully oiled last night that it never
slipped a cog. The convention wasn't
as well attended as some of the Demo-
cratic district primaries. and there
wasn't an overwhelming amount of en-
thusiasm The brethren seemed to have
a well-it's- going to happen anyway
sort of feeling, and they therefore al
lowed things to drift.
The bali was opened by Dennis Eich-
nor. He called the meeting to order
twenty minutes late, having held it up
that long in the hope that the store
room formerly occupied by the Syndi
cate, on First South street, where the
convention was held, might look trifle
fuller. When Dennis finally opened the
he was obliged to ask the dele
gates to come toward him, in order to
give an appearance of sociability to the

The first thing in order was the cleo
ton of a permanent chairman. Rob-
ertson promptly nominated j. S. Dave

the selection. Then Dennis got off a
bit of thoroughly unconscious humor.

as chairman" Mr. Daveler was elected
unanimously.
Before he took his overcoat off he
made a warm little speech expressive
of his intense qualification at the over
whelming honor that had been thrust
upon him. He also, to the intense de-
light of his Hannaite brethren, made all
kinds of prophecies for Republican sue
cess at the polls. When the chairman
had finished his remarks B. F. Redman
was elected secretary.
Judge Wenger moved that the dele
gates whose names were printed in the
Hanna organ Oct. be seated, and his
motion was adopted. Next came the
question of how the candidates should
be named. There were several sugges-
tons, but Bruce Johnson of Commercial
street solved the problem by proposing
vote by ballot

SHE'S A GOOD WOMAN.

In the British celebration of the eightieth birthday anniversary of Queen Victoria yesterday there wasa fit expression of the love and veneration felt for that truly esti- mable woman by her subjects.
 The Widow of Winsdor, as the
 English people affectionately des- ignate their Queen at times, oceu-
 pies unique position among mon
 archs. Ruling over the proudest
 race in the world, she stands not
 for the pomp of royalty so much
 IS for the simplicity and sacred ness of home. With some of the greatest achievements in English history chronicled during her long reign, her place seems that of an essentially pure and feminine wom- an who has been most concerned in preserving in court life that high standard of moral excellence upon which the honor and happi- ness of society depends equally with the honor and happiness of he family. "A motherly Queen i somehow seems to be the title 1 most applicable to her.
 And fer this reason the love of ] -he English for Victoria is singu- larly sincere and homely in nature. ltis shown every time she appears in public by familiar manifesta- tions of the kindliest regard. It Was shown yesterday in an en- thusiasm almost equaiing that witnessed at the time of her second jubilee. It is as d good woman,
 not IS Queen, that Victoria most

THE NEW STATE HOUSE.

The impression seems to prevail
 in many sections of Arkansas that
 the building of new state house
 Is an unwise and injudicious move
 and that it will increase the taxes
 of the people and thus prove q
 burden and hardship. Doubtless
 this idea IS due to the fact that the bill authorizing the erection of a
 new home for fine state, Is not
 thoroughly understood for we take 1t that no one can come to these conclusions if the specifications of the bill are read. Senator I. D. kimball of Hot Springs, who Is the author of the measure, clearly
 explains the scheme in letter to the Mt. Ada Herald. It IS as fol- lows:
 1 observe that Tn the last issue of
 the Herald you stated that the new capitol bill, which is now law, appropriates $I ,ooo, ,ooo for the building. l desire to state that
 the only appropriation carried or made by the bill Ca copy in which
 l enclose) is fifty thousand dollars, and such appropriation is made .out of any moneys in the state treasury which may arise from the sale of lands, except school lands,
 belonging to the state, fees of the state land commissioner and pro- ceeds of convict labor" The bill does not provide for any tax upon the people or for the issuance of bonds, as the South bill did, for which measure I succeeded in get ting my bill substituted after q hard fight in committee and in the senate, between Senator South and myself on the two bills. I op- posed the proposition of the South bill on the grounds that 1t was not necessary to issue bonds, if we could, and which involved an in crease of taxation, and because as believed and contended, 1t was unconstitutional for the reason that the constitution Art 16, sec I ] declares that the state shall never loan its credit or issue any interest-bearing evidences of in
 debtedness, except for pre-existing indebtedness of the state.
 The new capitol bill provides for the construction of the building with labor of the cenvicts, among whom are many skilled laborers, and with the proceeds of the safes of state lands, excepting of course the school lands, add with the fees of the state land office and net pro- ceeds of convict labor. Hence no tax can be incurred nor debt fasten-
 ed upon the people for the build ing. It is true that the bill pro- vides that "the reasonable cost of
 the building shall not exceed one
 million dollars, 7" but We demon
 strated that the building could be
 erected from the resources I have Ementioned together with the pro- Reeds of the sales of the olds state house grounds and the sixty-three acres of penitentiary lands in the aty of Little Rock, after reserving few acres for the new state house, ;ad acquiring cheaper lands in the cantry for the penitentiary. These sass are safely estimated at $4oo, \ oo4
 he necessity of the new state housis conceded by everybody, as
 the sate has far outgrown the old dilapaated structure which affords neitheN protection nor convenience
