The convention adopted platform
which deals mainly in state issues
and denounces Gov. La Toilette.
After accusing the Wisconsin state
administration of aiding and abet-
ting monopolies, it denounces trusts
and demands tariff revision. There
were. two surprises in the platform,
one the revival of the ghost of the
Bennett law in the denunciation of
"paternalistic interference' with the
rights of citizens in the matter of
schools, and the other an appeal to
the women of the state to vote
against the republican candidate for
state superintendent of public
schools on the ground that his nom
ination was the result of trafficking
in the interest of the state. Silver
and the money question were let
alone.
The biggest surprise of the day, and
a sensation at that, was the turning
down of a resolution, just before the
convention adjourned, endorsing the
national platform. While the dele
gates gave respectful hearing to it's
reading it was not entertained for an
instant.
Sacramento, CAL, Sept. 4.-The
democratic convention nominated
Franklin X. Lane, of San Francisco,
for governor.

Thirty DAYS in Peril

Victoria, B. c., Sept. 6.-For 80 days
during her trip from London to Ade-
laide, Australia, the cargo of the Ital-
ian ship Pasquale Lauro was on fire

started in the beginning of July, and it
was not until the end of that month
that the vessel reached her destina-
ton. The matches had to be fastened
down, and for fear of tanning the fire,
the ship had to be kept under reefed
sails. The provisions were destroyed
and the crews feet were scorched
when they walked the decks
