ARMY AND NAVY.

We are justly proud of the officers and men in our army and navy. Both. however, have suffered from the per- sistent injection of personal and po- hticdl influence. Promotions and ap- pointments have frequently been based on faVoritism instead of merit. Trials ana court-martials have been set aside under circumstances indicating poIiti- cal interference. These and other abuses should be corrected.

 Reform in expenditures must be had in the civil, military and naval estab- lishments in order that the national expenditures may be brought to a basis of peace and the government main- tained withoue recourse to the taxes of war.
 CONCLUSION.
 T have put aside congenial work in which I had expected to devote my life in order to assume as best I can the responsibilities your convention put on me.
 T solicit the cordial cooperation and generous assistance of every man who believes that change of meas ures and of men at this time would be wise. and urge harmony of endeavor as well as vigorous action on the part of all so minded.
 The issues are joined and the people must render the verdict.
 Shall economy of administration be demanded or shall extravagance be encouraged?
 Shall the wrong doer be brought to bay by the people or must justice wait on political oligarchy?
 Shall our government stand for equal opportunity or for special privilege?
 Shall tr remain a government of law or become one of individual caprice?
 Shall we cling 70 the rule of the peo- pie or shall We embrace benefcent despotism?
 With calmness and confidence we await the peoples verdict
 If called to the office of president I shall consider myself the chief magis- trate of all the people and not of any faction and shall ever be mindful of the fact that on many questions of na- donal policy there are honest differ enees of opinion. believe in patriot ism good sense and absolute sincerity or all the people. I shall strive to re- member that he may serve his party pest who serves his country best

RARE OLD DUTCH BIBLE.


The Owner Has Refused Offers Rang
ing from $1,000 to $1,000 for Il.
Harold q. Silvey of Schuylerville. N.
Y, is the owner OF an old Dutch b.
bic which he recently ascertained is OF
considerable value. A few days ago q
New York bibliophile made generous
offer for IL. and more recently he has
declined offers ranging from $4,000 to
50 900. The last offer was made by a
man, also from New York. who came
especially to buy the book. AS II is
a family heirloom, Mr.. Silyey says he
is In no hurry 10 sell at present. He
also believes that the book may be-
come more valuable. as he says 1t is
one of the only two OF its kind ever
Published. The other is now owned by q
wealthy book lover In New York.
The book. which was printed in the
year 1886 at Anne. Is 10 inches by II
inches, and 1G inches thick. II weighs
about fifteen pounds. Is mounted with
two heavy brass locks used as clasps.
and is In fine state of preservation.
Since he ascertained its value Mr..
Silvey has placed the book in the safe
deposit vaults in the local bank. but
is very glad to show 1t to persons who
are interested in old books.
