The democratic party has made its
nominations. The names on the tick
ct are men Of well known ability and
standing in the community. The Her
aid has no wish or purpose to bel1ttle
them in the eyes of any.
But they are the representatives oil
their party and stand for it in the
issues of the political campaign al
ready on. They represent a party hav-
ing no live issue before it. They
are without settled policy as TO any OF
the great national questions pressing
for solution They attempt ito cry
down the republican administration OF
affairs, but alas, offer nothing bet
ter Their policy, if we may so term
il. IS destructive, rather than con-
structive. On every question, OF tar
iff. of finance and OF what not, they
are as wide apart as is the foolishness
of Bravnism from the sturdy states
manship Of Cleveland. Anything TO
beat the republican party is their war
crv. This is their only concern. This
will give them the profits of office,
and that is the ehiefest good.
The party was given fair trial and
failed. Under republican rule the laf-
fairs of the nation have settled down
to a good, peaceful and prosperous ba-
sis. Is it not enough that on such sub
stantial basis we go ON building mp
our industries, ruled by the policy that
has ruled in the past? Why shall it be
asked the republican voter to change
his vote. Our ticket is better and our
policy assured.

After Six Months Trial Lewis
= Nixon Resigns II.
NOT ENTIRELY UNEXPECTED
Refused Vote of Confidence said He
Could Not Remain Leader and
Keep self Respect.

New York, May n,-Lewls Nixon,
leader OF Tammany hall for nearly six
months, resigned that position today
at a meeting Of the district leaders
held In Tammany hall. While the resig-
nation was not entirely unexpected, II
was not thought that Mr. Nixon would
take such positive action until later
date. first waiting the action Of the
leaders to see II they would give him
a vote Of confidence, Instead OF this,
he refused to allow any vote Of conf
dence and went so far az to say that
he could no longer retain his self-re-
spect If he remained as leader
The meeting OF the district leaders
was called at the instance of Mr.. Nixon
who on Tuesday night sent telegraphic
messages to all Of the 81. This action
followed a deadlock at the meeting Of
the sachems Of Tammany Hall society
Monday, when Mr., NiXon's intention OF
retaining Thomts l.. Feitner as grand
sachem was frustrated by a tie. there
being six OF the sachems OF the thirteen

MEAT QUESTION SETTLED,

"The shortness Of the meat supply
and the high price OF steak Is not an
unmitigated evil on the contrary Il h
probable blessing" says the Brooklyn
Eagle.
III meat could be raised to a price
that would make II prohibitory, II
might still be OF good result, because
Il would teach those who depend almost
entirely upon II to widen their dietary
and learn to enjoy many good things
OF which they are now Ignorant To
many, especially In the cities, there are
but three foods: meat potatoes and
bread. The weary monotony OF this
program, the unsatshed but indefinite
longings for a widening OF II, affect APP
petite and surely affect spirits and tenn
per.
THE laborer goes to his work filled
with meat, potatoes and bread. AT
noon he finds cold meat and bread In
his dinner-pail and at night he is con-
fronted by meat and potatoes. some
times separate, sometimes combined
into a greasy stew, sometimes chopped
into hash.
This kind Of thing fills him, but In a
finer sense IL can hardly be said 10 feed
him. Physicians have discovered that
a limited and unchanging diet lowers
vitality and health"
Such a time as this gives every one
an opportunity to test the value OF
Grape. Nuts as a food and prove TO
themselves that II more than takes the
place Of meat and really furnishes more
nourlshmeut for the body and greater
strength and vitality for the brain and
nervous system. tits also an economical
food that reduces the cost Of living TO
the minimum.
Grape Nuts are probably entitled 20
the claim 20 be the most perfectly
adapted food for human needs now ex-
tant. The meat eater and the vegetar-
ian are alike charmed with its crisp
taste and the delicate flavor Of grape
sugar and the careful housewife Is at
tracted by the fact that there are four
teen portions In ise package.

ENTERTAINEp CARNEGIE.
Is Engaged In Making Best Bargains
OF His Life.

London, May 1.-THE freedom OF the
Plumbers company was presented 10
Andrew Carnegie today at the Guildhall
In valuable casket OF various metals.
Replying to the presentation address,
Mr. Carnegie declared he thought II
more difficult to conscientiously dis
tribute wealth than to acquire Il,
1T Is the swimming tenth and not
the submerged tenth which we can
greatly benefit" said he Any sats-
faction which he had derived from his
gifts, arose from what he had induced
individuals and communities to give,
Il think II win be found" he said,
that far from being phllanthropst,
| am engaged In making the best bar
gains of my life. For Instance, when
New York had been given over a mil
lion pounds for " Libraries, | succeeded
In getting pledge from her that she
would furnish sites and maintain
them forever. Her investment Il hope
this may not go across the Atlantic to
alarm herr Is greater than mine. This
Is not philanthropy. 1t is q clever
stroke Of business. | am open to prop
ositions OF a similar character from
cities In any part Of the English
speaking world"
Mr.. Carnegie gave numerous in
stances Of how much to the inventive
genius OF Great Britain her giant child,
America, owes for her present cond-
ton adding that all England could
gain from America could not be COM
pared with what America had received
from England.
Dealing with international relations,
Mr.. Carnegie said he reioiced to say
that never in his day had the American
people and government been so lovingly
inclined toward the old home as at
present, and never had the patriotism
Of the race, the coming force In inter-
national affairs, revealed itself SO clear
ly. He concluded with saying that the
possibility Of the Englsh-speakng
people killing each other on the plea
OF civilized warfare was banished and
that In the event Of a difference no
government on either side of the ATTAIN
tic could resist the offer OF the other
OF arbitration and # can scarcely be
believed that Il serious quarrel can ever
arise when that offer will not be made
by one or the other.
After the casket had been presented
TO MI. Carnegie, It's key was handed by
the chairman 20 Mrs. Carnegie 80 hold
in conjunction with the key Of your
husbands heart" It was accepted by
Mrs. Carnegie, who stood up and was
greeted with cheers.

thirteenth. George c. Clausen being alb
sent. The action at that time caused
a general discussion Of the possibilities
OF Mr. NiAon losing control OF the or
ganizaton, and the combination head
ed by Jonn f. Carroll, ousting him. Mr..
Nixon, IN an interview on Tuesday, said
that II he could not have the confidence
Of the leaders, he would get out
When Mr. Nixon arrived III Tam
many hall today all the 81 leaders were
present As soon as the meeting was
called TO order, Mr.. Nixon arose and
said: Gentlemen, ! have decided to
resign as leader Of Tammany hall. This
resignation is absolute and positive
and will not be withdrawn. | feel that
| cannot retain my self-respect and still
remain the leader of Tammany hall
My decision Is unalterabe."
There was moments silence when
Mr., Nixon had finished. Then Michael
c. Murphy made very complimentary
speech In praise of Mr., Nixon. He did
not say, however, that he wished him to
remain as leader He said that Mr..
Nixon had done splendid work as the
leader. and had the confidence Of all
the leaders.
Mr. Nixon jumped to his feet as soon
as Col, Murphy had finished and said:
81 do not desire any vote Of confidence,
whatever" He Immediately left the
room, followed by an outburst Of
hand-clapping.
Once outside the meeting room, Mr..
Nixon would only say 10 the newspaper
men: 81 am out az leader Of Tammany
OF noxious gases and smoke, has
am out Of politics, and am glad Of IT,
/ will devote my time to my business Of
ship building, and will talk OF that by
the hour but ! win not talk abobut
politics hereafter. The cause Of my
resignation is plain, could have won
out and elected Mr.. Fetner grand
sachem, but would not appeal TO Mr.
Croker"
Following the departure OF Mr.
Nixon, several leaders remained for
some time IN groups chatting about
the resignation and the possible de-
velopments. 1t was announced that
meeting Of the executive committee OF
district leaders viii H. held Thursday,
at which Mr.. Nixon's action will be
acted upon. There were numerous
rumors about the hall regarding the fi-
ture policy OF the organization. The
most persistent one. and one that was
expressed by several leaders, was that
there would he no actual leader OF Tam
many hall for some time 10 come. This
was coupled with q rumor that the
finance committee would be abolished,
az well as the craftsmanship Of this
committee. The chairman. who IL now
Lewis Nixon, and was Richard Croker
has always been the leader OF Tam
many hall. and as such had the hand
ling OF the funds OF the organization
In the campaign.
