SOUTHERN MEN
ARE AROUSED
Introduction of the Payne Amend
mcnt stirs Up Determined OppO-
sition From the south.

PHILADELPHIA, June 20--The reso-
luton today introduced by Senator Quay
for the rearrangcment of the basis OF
representation in future national conven-
tions has caused sensation, particu-
larry among the delegations from the
Southern states. Tonight the interest
manifested in the proposition was scarcely
second to that aroused by the contest
for the vice presidency
Henry G. Pnyne's Amendment.
Four years ago Henry C. Payne ma
uonal committeeman from Wisconsin, pro-
posed 10 the national committee an amend
ment to the rules providing that there
after delegates to the Republican national
conventions should be selected on the ba-
sis OF one delegate for every 10.0o0 Re-
publican votes cast at the previous presi-
dental election. The proposition was
widely discussed Mt the time, but after
consideration the national committee de-
cided to take no action on It. At various
times since the campaign of 1896 the
question Of changing the basis of repre-
sentation has been discussed informally,
the principal argument by the advocates
of change being that under the present
rules. the Southern states, upon which no
reliance can be placed for Republican
electoral votes. proportionately have great
er power in the selection of candidates
than those looked to always to elect Re-
publican president Later. at Washing
ton, Mr. Payne brought forward his prop
osition. The committee. however. decided
that II had no authority to take any
action upon the question. II was held
tnHt DeIoFt tHe committee could pass upon
the question a national convention OF the
party would have to instruct It TO do so.
Text OF the Amend meut.
Mr.. Payne dropped the matter for the
time, so far as he was personally con-
cerned, but during the past few days
the fire which has been smoldering burst
forth In the carnestness or the New Jer-
sey delegation to take the question before
this convention. After Gen. bingham had
presented thu report OF the committee on
rules, former Senator Quay, OF Pennsyl-
wanna, arose and offered the following res
olution as an amendment to the commit
tees report:
THAT hereafter every state shall he
entitled to four MISUNDERSTANDING and one

The reading of the resolution was re-
celYed with applause. principally from the
New York and Pennsylvania delegates
among the delegates from the Southern
states there was manifest uneasiness. and

Nention. Audible objections were raised

and new prices have been made. Over
everything there is a holiday air. and
over everything that magician OF mod
ern science, the electrician, has woven his
web OF alluring f,ghts. Everywhere
there is TO he seen the Gallo love for
tinsel and display. The monumental
gate Of entrance To the grounds from
the Place de la Concorde is a good ex-
ample OF this passion for ornateness.

standing invitation for the stranger to

even more wondrous sights beyond that

bridge oven the Seine is yet another ex-
preston of the Gallo love for the dec
orative. This graceful single span cob

with buttresses and made Of stone and
ornamented with great sculptured fig
ures the size OF giants. So the Pari-
slams said that the Alexandrine bridge
should be simple and light and graceful.
But they could not resist the temptation
TO put two great, square marble coll
umns at each end. Then each one OF
these figures had TO be surmounted by
a symbolicaL figure. and these again had
to be duly gilded. Then a few more fig
ures had to be added to the base OF
each. and then the bridge itself divided
into spaces and each space embellished
with some statue of bronze or iron, TO
say nothing of rows of most ornate can
delabra representing groups OF chill
dren. All OF which goes TO bear out the
fact that the Frenchman insists on
beautifying everything about his beau
tiful Paris-indeed. i'm this very fact lies
a solution of the mystery OF the pres
ent day charm Of this siren of cities.
Even the big smokestack standing near
the palace of electricity is an example
Of the irrepressible artistic instinct OF
the Partisan. This huge chimney is 260
feet high and is the largest smokestack
in the world. But, think you. is 1t a
great, grimy tube pouring a cloud OF
blackness up TO the heavens? Not a bit
of IT, IL is an airy looking tower, with
it's periphery made gorgeous with vari-
ously colored bricks arranged TO form
the most pleasing figures and designs.
