No snarlng criticism. or gospel OF a lit

ANS right with the world
Whatever else In the past has suffered
change or decay, the republican party,
which for forty years has been identified
with everything ennobling and uplifting
in our history, was never as VITAL as
Nirile, and as vigorous as to-day. And
the heritage we shall transmit to the new
their children, and to their childrens
children, shall be a record clean and un-
tarnished, an unquenchable faith in free
patriotism of the people and an undying
love of liberty and of country.
The Indiana delegation led the ap-
plause when Senator Woleott an
nounced that the thieving post Office
officials in Cuba would be hunted
down. Probably the greatest demon
station occurred when he said that we
would establish law and order in the
Philippines, and the last thing to be
considered was to give up the islands.
The recognition of Gov. Taylor. of
Kentucky, by the chair, caused burst
of applause, and calls for platform,
He was finally compelled to take the
platform, and was introduced amidst
cheers. There were some who expect
ed speech echoing some of the recent
dramatic incidents in Kentucky. But,
instead of that, in piping voice, Gov.
Taylor seconded the nominations of
the various officials, who had been an
nounced, and this done, left the stage.
The nominations were made unan-
imous.
"Mr. Payne, of New York." an
nounced the chairman, and again all
eyes turned to the center of the hall,
where, this time, the silver-tipped
| form of the chairman of the ways and
| means committee was seen.
He moved that the rules of the last
convention prevail until other rules
were adopted, and this prevailed with
out dissent.
The following list of temporary off,
| GERS was announced:
Temporary secretary, Charles w.
johnson, of Minneapolis: assistant
secretaries, John II. Malloy, of Ohio;
John Il. Beam, of New Jersey; Lucien
Gray, cf Illinois; Gardner p Stickney,
of Wisconsin,; james L. Burke, of
Pennsylvania: W. b. Bochman, of
Tennessee; Warren Bigler, OF Indiana;
John F. Royce. of Kansas, and f. s..
Gaylord, of Connecticut.
While the list were being brought
to the stage, Gov. Roosevelt was hold
ing a regular levee in the pit. Dele
| gates swarmed toward him from all di-
rections. Ex-senator Quay was one of
those who greeted him warmly. The
New Mexico delegates with broad SOM
| brtros climbed over seats in their eag-
erness to get to him and shake his
hand. Chauncey Depew and the other
big guns of the New York delegation
were ignored.
| When ordar had been restored, after
| the confusion incident to this scene.
Mr.. Wolcott announced that the sec
retary would read the lists of the va
| rious committees. These committees,
he announced, could meet Immediately
after the adjournment of the days con-
vention.
| The call of the roll of states, for the
| submission of memDers of the various
committees, then began. 1t proved {.
tedious process, and the convention
was virtually in recess as the names
were handed in.
