REFERENCE TO THE LATE WAR.
His sentences were delivered ln a man
ncr that denoted a careful study Of each
word. Ills argumontativc style kept the
audience cn rapport with him, for he was
given the closest attention by the vast
auuiencc-in fact, very much more attcn-
ton than had any other speaker.
1T was not great war. II did not have
10 be-" said he, speaking OF the war with
Spain, and then waited for the ripple Of
laughter which followed the declaration
We have done so well that our oppo-
ncnts use II as an argument for turning
us out" he said, smiling and showing
his teeth, and his audience responded
with cheers and laughter. His alluslon
to the ice trust called forth the heartiest
applause, witn cries from the galleries
OF "Iiit 'em again" and That's right
Teddy"
II pity the Democratic orator in New
York who mentions trusts" hc declared
with uplifted hands, and tho audience
howled with laughter and shook the floor
with applause.
"The insurrccton la the Philippines
goes on because the insurrectionary allies
of the Tagalos in the distant Luzon," he
continued, have given the insurrectiOn-
lists their moral. if not their physical sup
pert"
when he declared with. brilliant em-
phasis that the success of the Repubh-
can party In November meant peace IN
the Philippines, while the success Of The
opposition meant prolonEation Of the
struggle, the delegates and spectators
rose almost as one man and checred.
AMERICA NOT A WEAKLING
After recounting the achievements of
the United States in the far-off islands
and presenting in "A sentence the claim
of this country upon the archipelago, Gov
ernor Roosevelt demanded. amid thunGer-
ous applause: rs America n weakling
that she should shrink from the work Of
great world power? The giant Of the
West. like the gladiator OF old, looks into
the future with hope, with expectancy.
which the love of all institutions have
made dear to us" tremendous applause)
In conclusion Governor Roosevelt de
clared the Republican party and Amerl-
can people challenged the future, ami
they were eager for the labor laid out
for them as II by providence.
The closing words of the Governor
brought another demonstration, and for
minute II seemed that the convention
would so mad and then and there make
two nominations instead of one. Plumes
went up, and standards again left their
sockets, to be waved on high. As the
Governor left the platform he waved n
salutation to the moving throngs, and
one in particular toward the radiant face
of his wife, sitting just outside the area
OF delegates
Gradually the convention became quiet
and the chairman recognized Senator
Thurston for a speech secondlnG the nom
inatlon of the President.
SENATOR THURSTON HEARD.
The Senator's deep, organ-like baritone
reverberated through the structure, cas-
lily dlstinguishable in the remotest cor
ncr. lie pictured the President as a sol
der on many hardfought fields, MS a
statesman in the halls of Congress and as
President directing the dcstinies of n ma
tlon-"our President now, our President
to be again."
Senator Lodge then recognized John w.
Yerkes of Kentucky, who arose TO also
second the nomination ON behalf of the
South. lie asserted that no convention
had ever been so unanimous for "A man
as was this for Mckinley. His state had,
for the first time I'm many years, given a
Republican majority for Mckinley in
1895, and II was going to stay In the Re
publican column, and the audience cheer
cd him. Mr.. Yerkes is a straight and tall
Kontuckian with a strong voice, and hts
speech was heard all over the hall.
When Mr., Herkes had concluded he was
given salyo of applause that echoed
md re-echoed through the great hall AS
he turned to resume his seat on the plat
form, Senator Hanna rose and cordially
Brasped his hand. Almost Instantly from
all parts Of the hall came the cry, vote,
vote, vote" Delegates and spectators
were becoming uneasy They wanted ac-
ton not oratory.
The restive listeners broke In with many
demonstrations and calls of "Yote9 ana
Chairman Lodge was kept busy with ms
gGyel trying 10 maintain sufficient order
for the speaker to be heard. AS he closed
the convention again demanded a vote,
and the chairman announced that the roll
of States would be called for the vote on
nomination for President. Al 1881 the
