Goodnow's prophecy of further trouble
II the allied forces in China fail to i'm

the United States may base its decision
to increase its forces in China consid-

the position Of the United States
If the note was intended, as it prob
ably was, to bring out corresponding
pledges from the other powers to do
what is right in China. to act in the
common interest and to sink ignoble
personal ends. it as yet has had no ef-
feet. At least none of the powers has
responded. There is, however. every
reason to believe that the delay is en-
tirely in view of the Importance of the
subject and that no power will feel dis
posed to Withstand the application of
the United States in view of the high
plane of international morality upon
which it is based.
The one point upon which All the
powers seem resolved is that an eXpe-
dition shall be gotten through to Pekin
at the earliest possible moment and our
government is second to none in the
determination that order shall be re-
stored there. that the lives of the for
eigners shall be preserved if possible
and that an effective arrangement
must be made for the preservation in
the future Of foreign interests and lives

as significant showing on the senti-
vincing as the terms of the platform
had put forth.
Another stirring event of the day was
the appearance of Webster Davis, for
merly assistant secretary of the in
terror under Mr.. McKinley's administra-
ton, in a speech severely arraigning the
Republican party for it's lack of SYM
patty for the Beers and formally an
nouncing his allegiance to the Demo-
cratic party.
But the great battle of the convention
has not been fought under the eyes of
cheering thousands but in the privacy
of the closely guarded quarters of the
committee on platform. Here was
waged throughout last night and again
this morning. one of the most remark
able struggles that has ever racked
this historic party. On the one hand
was the influence of Bryan and the ali
solute unity of devotion felt toward him
and the cause of silver with which his
name is inseparably linked. On the
other hand We're many of the patriarchs
of the party. men like Daniels of Nir-
ganiZation was endangered by changing
its old issues and that the duty of the
hour called for new ISSUES on new and
vital events. This contest was at last
narrowed down to the one issue Of
specifically re-affirning the party's ad-
herence to a 16 to 1 standard. as de
sired by Mr. Bryan. or of reafiirming
the silver plank in most general terms.
And on this issue the brains, the sa-
gacity, the persuasive elOquence and
the best ability of the convention has
for the last Sc hours been engaged in
a battle royal for supremacy. And out
of this fierce strife the adherents of
Bryan emerged SCARED but victorious.
They have written the platform in
their own way with 16 to I. But it was
a victory by scratch. for a single vote
would have turned the scale. And it
has not been a victory without cOnces-
sion, for in the final draft silver is no
longer paramount" it is far down in
the platform while in the very fore
front is the declaration that imperial
ism is the paramount issue of this
campaign"
There remains only the choice Of a
for Vice President and the
work of the convention is over. There
he quickly made. tomorrow, and al
