NAMING ROOSEVELT.
Speech of Col. LATE Young Nominat-
ing the Rough Rider.

Convention Hall, June 21.-In present
ing the name of Gov. Roosevelt to the
convention Colonel Late Young of Iowa
said:
Gentlemen of the Convention:
have listened with profound interest to
the numerous indictments pronounced
against the Democratic party and as
an impartial reader of history, 1 am
compelled to confess that the indict-
ments are all only too true. If I am to
judge, however, by the enthusiasm Of
his hour, the Republican relief commit
supplies and succor to the PROSTATE in
dustries of our republic has returned to
make formal report that the duty has
been discharged.
could add nothing to this indictment
except to say that this unfortunate
party through four years of legislative
and administrative control had made it
up to 1896 impossible for an honest man
to get into debt, or to get out of it.

you know my purpose, you know the
heart of this convention. The country
never called for patriotic sons from any

another by loving affection and adop-

upon the other. 1 therefore withdraw

Local politics in North Provi-
dence are in quite an agitated con-
diton this week. A Citizens ticket
Of more or less strength has been
nominated, and its adherents will
try issues with the regular Republi-
can nominations. To all manifest
appearances the Republicans will
win out in the town meeting on
Monday next. The names on the
Citizens council ticket are for the
most part those of men who are
untred quantities III town affairs,
and while the nominees are men of
respectabllity, still their lack of expe-
rience will be likely to tell against
them when it comes TO a vote. Mr..
Fred Winsor is pitted against Town
Treasurer Ogden. Every one allows
that Mr.. Ogden has made most
competent and satisfactory treasurer,
and good reasons for change are
not apparent. Mr.. Gardiner, the
Citizens nominee for road commits
sioner, has for a number of times
been identified with "loSt cause"
and his election in the present in
stance is hardly probable. The
affairs of the town have been for the
past few years administered in a
way that can hardly call down con-
demnation at the hands of relormers,
and the danger Of 'swapping horses
while crossing a stream" is perhaps
something of an argument against
change.

REV. DIR. BEHRENDs, who died
in Brooklyn last week, was consid-

~ am tired of being theological

/ would put them all in a hopper.
From all would fly cha1 and straw,

and burn up the dross. When the
hay and stubbte have been consumed
you will find the pure gold and silver
of the Gospel. When the creeds have
been burned and the ashes of the
stubble blown away you will find
beyond any doubt that there remains
only the fundamental principle of the
gospel Of Jesus Christ. That is all
there is in any creed worth fighting

THE Providence Journal Co. has
just issued handsome pamphlet,
entitled "The Possibilities Of Provi-
dence Harbor." The book is illus
trated by cuts of the harbor, pictures
ofthe commissioners, and embellished
by several excellent maps. The
reading matter is written by William
Goddard, Esq, ]. w. Miller, J.
Herbert Shedd and others. The
introduction is evidently by some
person on the Journal staff other
than the neck-tie editor. The book
is a most able and timely work, and
will doubtless be appreciated by the
progressive people of Providence,
which it aims to benefit.

TIE following is an extract from
an able article written by Hon.
Charles ]. Noyes, a former speaker
of the Massachusetts, House of Rep
resentatives, and printed in a recent
issue of the Boston Herald:
"If our political life is not fast
becoming rotten at the core, the
symptoms are wholly misleading.
Everywhere the Shiny hand OF greedy
speculation is manifest; men in
public station are bought like sheep
in the shambles; corporate interests
stalk defiantly over bridges Of gold
into public privileges, and merce-
nary army camps about every legls-
lative hall and executive threshold.
Time was when VIC could believe
that positions of public honor were
regarded by their occupants as sacred
responsibilities, to be exempt from
the profane approach of corrupting
influences; when. indeed, official
atmosphere was not tainted even with
the suspicion OF wrong. But il must
be confessed tSlat that day is nearly
il not wholly, past. Certainly, il has
reached its eventide."
