SINGLE PLATFORM IS ADOPTED
It Declares for Prohibition, Together with
Resolution Favoring Suffrage and In
dorsins the Young Mems Prohibition
Leagus-PresidentiaI AspIrants

Chicago, June 29.-Mrs. Francis z.
Beauchamp of Kentucky started a re-
volt in the national prohibition con-
vention which defeated her purpose to
have a suffrage plank included in the
platform. In a speech advocating a
suffrage clause she charged that a pic
ture of Frances E. Willard had been
ipurposely removed from the hall by
the enemies of womans rights. This
charge was met by Kisses from all
sides and brought a dozen delegates
TO their feet protesting against the in
situation. When quiet was restored
the chairman explained that the pic
ture in question had not been re-
moved, but had fallen down, and asked
Mrs. Beauchamp to take back her
statement.
; After considerable discussion the
Single platform CT prohibition was
adopted, together with a resolution
fayoring suffrage and indorsing the
Young Mems Prohibition league.
Army Canteen Denounced.
The platform is lengthy document
and arraigns both the democratic and
republican parties. Both are ac-
cused of being insincere on the trust
question and OF advocating methods
In favor of the liquor trafic. The
clause in reference to the army can
teen reads as follows:
I'VE charge upon President McKin-
Law Whn uoa alanfad IN fg hfuh
by appeals to Christian sentiment and
patriotism almost unprecedented and
by combination of moral influences
never before seen in this country, that,
by his conspicuous example as a wine
drinker at public banquets and as a
wine-serving host in the White House,
ne has done more to encourage the
liquor business, to demoralize the tenn
perance habits of young men, and to
bring Christian practices and require
ments into disrepute, than any other
president this republic has had. We
further charge upon President McKin-
ley responsibility for the army can
teen, with all its dire brood of disease,
immortality, sin and death, in this
country, in Cuba, in Porto Rico and
the Philippines; and we insist that by
mis- attitude concerning the canteen,
and his apparent contempt for the vast
number OF petitions protesting against
Ut, he has outraged and insulted the
moral sentiment of this country in
such a manner and to such a degree as
calls for its righteous uprising and an
Indignant and effective rebuke.
We challenge the denial of the fact
that our executive as commander in
chief of the military forces of the
United States. at any time prior to or
since March 2, 1899, could have closed
every army saloon, called a canteen,
by executive order, as President Hayes
did before him, and should have closed
them for the same reasons which ac-
tuated President Hayes; we assert
that the act Of congress, passed March
2. 1899, forbidding the sale OF liquors
In any post, exchange or canteen' by
any officer or private soldier or by
any other person. on any premises
used for military purposes by the
United States was and is as explicit
an act Of prohibition as the English

TRADE HURT BY GERMAN RULE
Reports from Apia Concerning New
Government.

nepors from Apia Concernhg new
Government.
Apia, Samoa, via San Francisco.
Cal, June 30-Although Gov. Solf is
personally popular, the Germanlzins
efforts Of the new government are not
producing good results. Though good
order prevails and the German govern
ment is well administered, business is
declining owing to withdrawal Of
American activity and enterprise, and
1t is now believed Pango-Pango will
eventually become the Samoan me-
tropolis. As soon as regular mail
route is established to Pango- Pango 1t
is believed trade will gradually shift
to the American town. At present the
United States ship Aberenda comes up
from Pango-Pango to meet every mail
steamer that stops here. All offices at
Apia are being gradually filled by Ger
mans, British and American officials
being quietly dropped, and the ques-
ton Is now discussed Of substituting
German currency and coinage for all
other. Gen. Solf has sent a circular
letter to merchants asking for their
views. Judging by comments in the
Apia Herald, the project is not regard
ed with favor.
