The Republican state Convention to-

adopted a platform. All the candi-

Harmony marked the proceedings of
the convention, but after the ticket
had been completed and the platform
adopted. speeches were made which
indicated that the Republican lead
ers of the state are not entirely agreed
as to the details of tariff policy.
The tariff plank adopted was pre-
pared by Senator Allison, after con-
ference with representative Republic
cans of the state. No objection was
made to 1t in the Committee on Reso-
buttons, nor on it's presentation 10 the

O'BRIEN SHOWED WELL

Philadelphia, July philadelphia
Jack O'Brien had the better of the six
round bout tonight with Kid Carter
of Brooklyn at the Industrial Athletic
Club. The fight was hard, clean and
fast one from start to finish. Both men
took punishment, but neither was bad
ly hurt.
O'Brien drew first blood. He cut
Carter over the eye in the first round
and later started his nose bleeding.
The Philadelphian received most of
Carriers blows on the body, at which
the kid" kept punching. The Brook
lyn man put up a vicious tight, but
the Philadelphia lad was able to avoid
Carter's onslaughts by clever footwork.
OBrien managed to dodge nearly
dozen, any of which would probably
have ended the fight.

Congressman George d. Perkins of
Sioux City acted as temporary chair
man. Mr.. Perkins, who was warmly
applauded on his appearance, spoke as
follows:
The tariff and trust planks of the
PLATFORM as adopted follow:
I'VE reiterate our faith in the his
toric principle of protection. Under
its influence our country, foremost in
the bounties of nature, has become
foremost in production. 1t has en-
abled the laborer to successfully in
sist upon good wages and has Induced
capital to engage in production with
a reasonable hope of a fair reward.
Its vindlcation is found in the history
of its success and the rapidly with
which our national resources have
been developed and our industrial in
dependence secured, and we heartily
renew our pledge to maintain 1t.
Tariff rates enacted to carry this
policy into effect should be Just, fair
and impartial, equally opposed to for
eign control and domestic monopoly,
to sectional discrimination and indi-
vidual favoritism, and must from time
to time be changed to meet the vary
ing conditions incident to the progress
of our Industries and their changing
relations in our foreign and domestic
commerce. Duties that are too low
should be increased and duties that
are too high should be reduced.
I'VE indorse the policy of reciproc-
ity and the natural complement Of
protection. Reciprocity between ma
tions is trade for mutual advantage,
and both sides must give and take.
Protection builds up domestic indus
try and trade and secures our own
markets for ourselves; reciprocity
builds up foreign trade and finds an
outlet for our surplus.
I'VE approve the treaty with Cuba
recently ratified as comforting substan-
tial benefits upon both countries, and
urge that the remaining steps neces-
sary to make it effective be promptly
taken.
1--WE believe that the large corpora
lions commonly called Trusts should
be so regulated and supervised both In
their organization and operation that
their evil tendency may be checked
and their evil practices prevented. In
many instances they are efficient in
dustrial instruments, and the natural
outcome of an inevitable process of
economic evolution. We do not desire
their destruclion, but insist that they
should be so regulated and controlled
as to prevent monopoly and promote
competition, and In the fullest measure
subserve and advance the public good.
'"The patriotic and resolute course of
the President of the United States In
his recommendations to Congress upon
this subject and upon the related sub
ject OF the further regulation of inter-
state commerce commands our con-
fidence and admiration, and recent leg
lslation Of Congress in harmony with
his recommendations meets our hearty
approval"

A DROPPING MOUTH.
From Medical Talk.


Don't let your mouth droop. A
dropping mouth is responsible for many
a sickness. When you are not feeling
well, when you are tired or discouraged,
disappointed or depressed, the first in
dication will be the droop in the mouth.
When the mouth droops. then the mem
tai activities droop, the bodily func-
lions droop and the whole physical or
ganism gets out of repair. and you feel
droopy and you look droopy. A droopy
individual, like a droopy chicken is
not a very charming or inspiring sight,
and, perhaps, like the droopy barnyard
fowl. should be isolated from his COM
panions. There is nothing as doleful
as the company of person with
dropping mouth.
We are not talking to those who are
facing some awful calamity or pass
ing through some great sorrow. We
do not expect them to be merry-at
least not until time can soften the pain
Rut TO that great mass of people who
take life too seriously, who allow trifies
ia irritate them, petty obstacles to dis
courage them, little disappointments to
depress them; those people who mag
nifv their troubles and retail their
woes: those people who imagine they
are to be pitied and with dropping
mouth pose for sympathy.
Cheer up! Get the droop out of your
mouth Make the corners of your
mouth turn up instead of down. If no
other way. take your fingers and twist
The corners up. When you are feeling
;rritated or depressed or discouraged
or tired watch your mouth. Don't let
the corners sag Make the corners bow
inward. even if you have 20 use the
finger exercise. Do this when you are
feeling your worst and very soon tne
- ,rui shine brighter the sky will
&c on hluer tint, the WEAKNESS, the
ennovance, the disappointment and de-
,l,.aseion will have vanished, and life
t,,iIl be all rose-color again.
