He showed the ecstacy of the joy
he felt over the storm of approval he
had raised. Many, in that moment,
remembered how the presidents War
wick had announced year ago that
his ambition would be satisfied and
his cup of joy would be full when he
called together the convention that
would renominate Mckinley. Perhaps
it was significant that in his speech
Mr.. HanDa made no mention of Cuba
or anything which would furnish a
peg on which Roosevelt demonstra-
ton could be hung.
The address of Senator Wolcott, the
temporary chairman, which followed,
lasted an hour and ten minutes. It
undoubtedly added to the brilliant
Colorado orators reputation. The
keynote he sounded-an account of
the stewardship of the party-was as
much for the millions of readers
scattered over the country as it was
for the few thousands who heard it
and it was difficult role for a fiery
and magnetic speaker to essay. Sena-
tor Wolcott would be at his best
speaking in the opportunity of the
AAlOAA4CAO' Gu O1IC lie IQdQC SS-
terday thrilled the audience With
clear, ringing voice that reached the
remotest spot of the hall and with
graceful gestures he brought all I'M
der his spell. Time and again his
hearers broke into cheers as he spoke
of the present prosperity of the coun-
try and predicted McKinley's tri-
umphant reelection. And when he
declared that the democratic party
had been driven by the events of the
last four years from every position it
occupied in 1896 to seek issues in, the
events of the war with Spain there
was another frantic outburst. The
same enthusiasm swelled out when he
predicted that this generation which
had witnessed our recent acquisitions
would see the American nation grid
Ing half the globe with it's flag, ex-
tending its commerce to the utter
most ends of the earth and taking
it's place as a world power among the
great world natiOns-''a power for
good, for peace and for righteous
ness But the climax was reached
when he lifted up his voice and de-
clared that our dead were buried in
Luzon and that on its soil no foreign
flag should ever salute the dawn. In
his splendid peroration he declared
that the republican party, identified
for 40 years with everything ennob-
ling and uplifting in our history was
never so vital, virile and vigorous
as to-day and that with untarnished
record it will transmit to posterity
an undying love of liberty and of
country.
A noteworthy incident of the SEES
sion was the remarkable demonstra-
ton to Gov. Taylor, of Kentucky.
That his party associates look upon
him as a martyr to partisan hatred
their great ovation yesterday made
evident.
The committee on resolutions or
ganized Immediately after the ad-
journment of the convention. On mo-
ton of Senator Foraker, Senator
Fairbanks, of Indiana, was chosen
chairman of the committee, and E.
Rosewater, the Nebraska member,
secretary.
