FORGOT SOMETHING.
Mr.. Bryan Makes Speech in Which I6 to
is Only Mentioned Once.

Lincoln, Neb., July g.-The new
front porch of the Bryan home received
its real dedication today. The Colorado
contingent stopped over from O'Clock
until noon and visited Mr.. Bryan in a
body.
Mr.. Bryan, in replying to a speech by
one of the delegates, said;
ST thank you for this friendly call
and assure you I appreciate your good
viii and kindly interest and 1 am sure
that the citizens of Lincoln join with
me when I say that L am glad to see
you here.
Il am sure that Colorado people are
no more anxious for the realization of
the principles of the Democratic plat
form than are the people of many other
states. But 1 want to say to you that
when Colorado forsakes the principles of

in their support of the principle, 1 will
be found still lighting even though
alone. The Republicans held their ma
tional convention at Philadelphia. on the
anniversary of the founding Of their par
ty there, by exhibiting partisan spirit.
The Democrats hold their convention in
Kansas City on Fourth of July thereby
manifesting a patriotic spirit. The Re
publicans would repeal the Declaration
Of Independence, the Democrats would
re-affim it everywhere throughout the
world.
There is one great principle to be
fought for in the coming campaign and
that is whether or not the dollar shall
be placed above the man. Whenever man
and the dollar come in conflict the Re-
publican party stands for the dollar.

Where this was one reason in 1896 for
carrying Colorado for the Democratic
ticket. there are Is reasons now.
The Democratic party stands for the

TELLER UNCOMPROMlSING.
Insists On Specific 16 to 1 Declara-
ton,

Kansas City, July 2.-Senator Teller
of Colorado arrived today to attend the
Silver Republican convention and will
probably preside over its proceedings.
A sked if he thought the Democratic con-
vention should make specific declara-
ton for the coinage of silver at the ratio
of 16 to 1, replied:
''Most emphatically such declaration
should be made. The demand for
simple reaffirmation of the Chicago plat
form without other reference to the
financial question comes from the gold
Democrats, who did not support Bryan
in 1896, and it is somewhat doubtful
whether some who insist upon the pur-
suance of this course will support him in
1900. In many of the states west of the
Alleghanies, there are thousands of 9th
ers who will support Bryan and the
Democratic party ON account of their po-
sition on the financial question. These
people believe in the free coinage of silver
at the ratio OF 10 to l, and they will re-
gard a simple re-affirmation of the Chi
cago declaration as an attempt to mini
mize the silver question as presented in
the Chicago platform. They will not
believe that such an omission is insisted
upon by the gold standard Democrats for
any other purpose than to make 1t APP
pear that the contention for free silver
coinage at 16 to 1 has been abandoned
by the Democratic party. Such is UNI
doubtedly the purpose OF the gold advo-
Gates. IT the Democratic party is in favor
of free coinage at the historic ratio,
which cannot be questioned, their repre-
sentatives in the national convention
ought to recognize that sentiment and 50
declare. If they fail to do so, the people
will believe that they no longer adhere
to the principles enunciated in 1896 on
that subject or else that they are too cow
ardly to declare their true principles No
political party in this country ever
gained any advantage by falling to make
emphatic declaration upon any impor
tant question of policy. Surely there is
no question before the people which has
created more discussion or interest than
the money question, and the Democratic
party ought not to speak upon it in any
uncertain tone. I believe q failure to
make definite declaration Will mean
utter defeat in the coming election. l adj
nit that there are other important ques-
tions that must be considered, but none
OF them nor all of them are, in my
opinion, of sufficient Importance to jus.
tify any departure from the platform of
1895.

Fully 1000 people were jammed along
the platform, sitting on the roof OF the
train shed and clinging to the iron GRID
ers.
Shortly before Gov. Roosevelt's train
arrived, a big delegation of Kansas Demo-
Gratis carrying huge flags, arrived ana
they waited to see the Republican vice.
Presidential nominee. When Gov. hoose-
velt, smiling and specialized, was seen
on the platform perfect roar OF cheers
went up.
"Help Teddy" ''Rah for Roosevelt, .
''Teddy, stop off and talk to the Demo
Gratis, . yelled the enthusiastic members
of the crowd
The Governor laughed, but refused TO
talk politics. The instant the train ar
rived rush was made to shake GOV.
Roosevelt hand and it took the united
eff orts of a score of policemen to keep the
crowd from degenerating into mob
For 20 minutes the Governor was kept
busy shaking hands with enthusiastic
men and women. Several members Of
the Rough Ridder regiment, attired In
khaki, We're among those at the station
and to them the Governor gave an espec-
tally cordial greeting.
The crush about the car was ter rible
ana several women tainted. No one was
seriously hurt.

those of former years, except that a little
more general reading is required.
The only changes noticed in the courses
of instruction are the making of some
studies, which formerly have been required
elective, and the addition to the curriculum
of course on Books and Libraries by Prof.
Hall, the purpose of which is to acquaint
the student with the practical use of books
and libraries. Required of both divisions of

Nature Studies.

The meeting of the Belfast Nature Club at
the High school room last Friday evening
was largely attended by members and others
and all were entertained and instructed.
The address was by Miss Sue M. Partridge,
who dealt with the butterflies and moths
which came under her personal observation
in her field work in nature studies last sea-
son. The address was illustrated by case
of butt critics and one of moths caught and
mounted by Miss Partridge. Handsome
colored charts, showing the milkweed but
tertly, so-called in the larva, in transition to
the pupa and in the perfect insect. were
shown, together with one of a species of
hawk moth. The charts were the work of
P. A. Sanborn and were finely executed, be-
ing perfect representations, enlarged, of the
insects. Miss Partridge also showed the
apparatus used in catching, killing and pre-
serving the insects, including the net poison
jar, the press, storage boxes, etc, and ex-
planned the use of each. The lepidoptera,
the order of butterflies and moths, require to
be handled with extreme care on account of
the delicate texture of the wings i'll all and
the frail nature of the antennR in some
species. In addition to general remarks on
the ORDER showing its distinctive peculiari-
ties, habits, transformations and the differ
ences between the butterflies and moths,
the speaker gave an account of her work
in entomology, and brief notices OF some
of her specimens. When the Nature Club
was organized but little interest was
felt in entomology, the great majority
of the members joining the botany section.
The talk of Mr.. Howard after the season
was somewhat advanced created an interest
in the lepdoptera, and few began the
study of butterflies and moths in addition
| to their botany work. Miss Partridge was
| among the number and her address on this
| occasion showed diligent work and close
| investigation and accurate classification
| This meeting gave an additional stimulus to
| the interest in the work of the Club, which
| has kept up remarkably well through the
season when field work is out of the ques-
ton, and the season of 1900 will without
| doubt find large classes both in botany and
entomology, and much good accomplished
along the lines for which the Club was Or
ganized.
Mr.. F. S. Brick resigned as president and
and Rev j. NJ Leighton, formerly vice
president, was elected to the position.
