Few persons have the patience to read the
speeches Of the Democratic orator who NOM
mated candidates for vios-President. Great
thoughts are hidden In those masterpieces.
Thus the Hon. GEORGE FRED WILLIAMS, on be-
half Of the Hon. CHARLEs ARoENrUM TowNR.
showed the u sual indications Of acute emotional
Bryanity:
I'VE are performing . sacred duty here to-day. and
as GODS benedlction was almost heard spoken aloud
In our deliberations on yesterday. so l believe that
His blessing will be upon our celebrations now"
Mr.. DUSPHY OF Idaho told the convention
that II It nominated the Hon. HAM LEWIS.
on the eve OF Nov. 9 the wires from the silver
golden West will be freishted with tidings
announcing a triumphant result" Tho Hon.
GEORGE I. COOPER Of Wisconsin. speaking for
Mr.. TowNE. INDUCED In these imaginative sta
tstics:
The Republican press. my friends, says that we
have killed In the Philippine Islands 10, 900 Filipinos,
That means 10000 widows In tears. That means.
my friends, 1000 children LETT fatherless"
Tho Hon. MICHAEL ANGELO DoUGHERrY Of
Ohio nominated the Hon. ABRAHAM W. PATRICK
of that State and famed tremendously against
imperialism:
The people Of Ohio are against the colonial sys.
TEN Of q JULIUS CESAR, against the conquest and
subjugation OF a NAPOLEON BoNAPARTE, against
the expansion OF q WILLIAM MCKINLEY. an expan.
sion accomplished with nrc and sword In all the hor-
Tors Of an unjust and unholy war. written In the
blood and butchery aud slaughter Of GODS created
beinga"
These speeches or an anthology Of them ought
to be published for the Joy Of the world in gen.
eral and OF the authors In particular.

NO RETURN FOR CANADA.
Great Britain Will Accept the Increase on
Preferential Duties without Compensation.

TORONTO. Ont. July o.-Canada increased on
July l the preferential duty on British goods
from one-fourth to one-third as against
American and other imports. This prefer
ence would. 1t was thought by many. lead
Great Britain to give Canada som substan-
tial return. Not a few Canadians hoped Great
Britain would impose a sr.all duty on foreign
breadstuffs and allow those from the colonies
free entry. To-day the Globe. the Dominion
Government organ. prints this special London
cable despatch, which will e~rectually dispel
such ideas:

from Jamaica on his way to Victoria, B. c..
under orders from the British War 0ffoe TO
take command Of a regiment Of British VOL

nents Of mules made since the beginning OF
tn, traf1c. The shipments this week will be
even larger and each ship. will carry twice as
much feed as has heretofore been taken on
trips to Cape Town. This has led 10 tho very
general belief that the later cargoes are des-
tined. not for South Africa, hut for China The
steamship company, moreover. is offering moro
liberal inducements to the muleteers. Nearly
all the. recent mulcteers shippsd have been
given To understand that their destination
may be China instead Of South Africa.

NO EVIDENCE OF MURDER.

Coroner Vsndever ana Detective McVey
Aere. That Mary sanders, Coiored, Died
of Natural Causes. ~
Coroner Vandever and State Detective
Money went to Glasgow Thursday to
investigate the death of Mary Sanders,
colored, who was reported to have been
murdered. They found that she had
died from natural causes, and the
coroner gave certificate to that effect.
The woman was 6S years old. She
live alone in small house oil a 49,
acre piece of land, owned by her and
her sister, Mrs. Briscoe, about mile
and half east of Glasgow.
Mrs. Briscoe saw Mary on Friday
last and that was tho last time she was
seen alive. Yesterday afternoon, Mrs.
Briscoe went to the house to make a
visit and found her sisters body lying
against the door. She had supps sedly
been taken i'll, had fallen while In that
condition and had died. In walking
about the room, she had apparently
fallen against the stoyepire, which had
been Knocked down. Other things in
the room had also been knocked over,
but the coroner and detective were
satisfied that the state Of affairs was
explained by her being i'll and that she
had not been foully dealt with. The
cold had possibly hastened her death.
The woman had son, William, who
is employed by DR.. w. 7. Skinner Of
Glasgow. The son stated that he had
not been home since Sunday week, when
he cut lot of wood for his mother.
A rather remarkable fact concerning
the deceased was that she weighed only
60 or 10 pounds.
