PLEDGED TO BRYAN.
Ohio Democrats Indorse Chi
cago Platform and Demand
Nebraskan's Nomination.

COLUMBUS, o., June 13.-The Dem
ocratic state convention was called to
order at the Auditorium at IL o'clock by
the Hon. W. 5. Thomas of Springfield,
chairman of the state central committee.
Portraits of Bryan, Thurman, Jackson,
Mclean and others were conspicuous in
the hall.
After prayer by Rev. John Hewitt.
Chairman Thomas addressed the conven-
ton on the work of the past year and
the prospects for the present political
year. The following temporary organiza-
ton was announced: Chairman, Webster
L. Huntington of Columbus; secretary,
Louis Reemelin of Cincinnati and SER
geant-at-arms, John McCarty of De
tiance.
Chairman Huntington was received
with great applause and made the key
note speech of the convention.
The following are the principal planks
of the platform:
I'VE reafiirm our adherence to the
Democratic national platform adopted at
Chicago in 1896. But new and grave
issues have arisen, threatening the safety
OF free government itself, which should
command at this time the most serious
attention of all patriotic citizens.
I'VE enter our protest against the doc
trine that the president or congress car
govern acquired territory outside and in
dependently of the constitution of the
United States as doctrine utterly sub
versive OF every foundation principle OF
our government.
I'VE denounce the Porto Rican tariff
bill as palpable violation of the doc
trines of the fathers and of the funda
mental principles of our government
which is based upon equal rights to all.
The platform denounces trusts and
monopolies, favors the removal Of al
duties from imports monopolized by
trusts and also demands the enactmen
: and enforcement of such legislation al
will prevent every species of discrmina
ton. 1t denounces the currency Law
passed by the present congress, which
transfers to the banks the entire contro
of the paper currency, thus laying tn
foundation for a money trust which will
have power to control the prices of al
property and to stimulate or strangl
business" In conclusion it says:
I'VE affirm anew our undiminishe,
faith in the acknowledged leader of ou
party, William ]. Bryan. and demand hi
nomination at Kansas City for presiden
Of the United States, and the delegate
elected by this convention are instructed
to so cast their votes"

From Manila to Re-enforCe
Admiral kempff In China.

WASHINGTON. June 13.-The navy
department has been Informed that the
Yorktown has sailed from Shanghai for
Chefu.
The United States consul at Chefu has
informed the state department Of
Boxer disturbances at that place, but
no particulars were furnished.
Chefu is on The northern coast of the
Shangtung peninsula.
A cablegram has been received at the
state department from Minister Conger,
at Feking, stating that Tuan, the father
of the heir apparent, has been appointed
president of the tsung-li-yamen; also
that three other new ministers have been
appointed. all affiliated with the party OPP
posed to foreigners. On the whole, Mr..
Conger reports, the situation is not ma
terially improved. Guards are repairing
the railway. and as soon as they have
arrived at Peking, it is Mr.. Conger's be-
lief that the safety of the foreigners at
that capital will be assured.
A dispatch received today from Manila
says:
"The United States hospital ship So
lace sailed at midnight last night, having
on board 100 marines and ; officers,
MAJOR w aler commanding, III response
to the telegraphic request sent from
Tong Ku June IL by Admiral Kempff
for battalion of marines from Manila.
Thirty others left last week on the Unit
ed States gunboat Nashville, bound for
Tien-tsin. The marines on the Solace
had been destined for Guam. 1t is be-
lieved that others will be sent there later
on. A supply ship will leave this week,
and possibly the cruiser New Orleans
will sail later"
Official dispatches received in diplomat
ic quarters in Washington show that the
rioting in Peking has reached an acute
stage, with the rioters directing number
Of their assaults against members of the
different foreign legations there. One OF
these dispatches states that the secretary
of the Belgian legation was twice
attacked on Monday and escaped aft
er being maltreated by the mob. On
the same day two officials Of the British
legation serving as student interpreters
were attacked by a large crowd OF
roughs. The young Englishmen held the
attacking party back for time, but
when the mob threatened to close in or
them they drew revolvers and by show
of force made their retreat without bod
lily injury.

Postal Fraud Developments.

HAVANA, June 13.-The Post this
morning publishes sensational story
connected with the postal frauds. 1t
says it has an attested communication
from Fred Spencer, the hospital nurse
who attended Inspector Maynard during
his last illness, alleging that the patient
was called upon by two postal officials
who persuaded Mr.. Maynard, when he
was in a semicOnscious state, to sign i'm
portant postal documents. The next day
the patient died. Spencer expresses the
belief that the securing of the signature
must have been a very important matter,
as two men holding such positions as
those held by the callers would not have
risked contracting yellow fever for any
light reason. Spencer, the paper an
nounces, gives the names of the men in
question, but The Post does not publish
them, simply saying that both are promi-
nently connected with the postal frauds.

UPHOLDS THE EMPRESS.
Professor Starr Says She Should Not
BE Criticised For Her Attitude.

CHICAGO, June 13.-Professor Fred
erick Starr, head of the department of
anthropology at the University of Chi
cago, in addressing the students on the
Chinese question asserts that the dow
ager empress was justified in her action
and that a protectorate established by
the powers would be failure. DIR. Starr,
who has made special study of the
Chinese, said in part:
THE dowager empress should not be
criticised for her attitude toward the
missionaries. The Boxers are new
organization. formed to do away with
conditions which have become intolera-
Bile. The party of the empress will sue
ceed eventually, because any scheme to
deter her by a coalition of the powers,
such as is proposed at present, will be
a failure. IL control passes from China 5
hands, it will drift into Russia's. A Joint
protectorate of the powers would come
to the same end as the protectorate in
Egypt. The control and finally the pos
session of the country would pass TO the
strongest power. In Egypt England
triumphed.
''There are four possibilities of the
outcome of affairs in China: First, the
dowager empress will come out yicto-
rious; second, the so called emperor may
be restored under a coalition of the for,
eign powers; third, China may be divided
among the nations; fourth, Russia may
seize China.
THE only probabilities are the first
and fourth. The partition OF China
among the nations would lead to the de,
velopment of warlike spirit in the Chi
nese themselves, which would unite tn,
nation and give it a strong sway as O
world power"

Humanity In TurkcYa.

"Thcre's 4 good deal Of human nature

cr day while I was scttn in the barn
door one Of my turkeys come ycrkin
along and pecllin right and left and
finally spicd Il rag on the ground that
every turkey had been travclin over for
Il week. Turkey picked it up and Slated
it out. That minute every turkey in
the yard started for him. He run. 1t
evidently struck him all of sudden
that he had got hold of suthin that was
mighty valuable. He run, and he
lodged, and he duckcd, and he run
some more. Every few minutes some
one Of them turkeys would get him by
the wattlcs or else by the rag, and
there would be tug Of war And ut
last another turkey got the rag away,
and then there was another chase.
Guess them darn fool turkeys would
have been runnin the fat off them

dog on 'em.
THAT'S just the way with turkey.
