IN DETAIL.
What the Convention Did and How
Twas Accomplished.

Convention Hall, Bangor, Me-, June
29.-(SpeciaD.- 1.51 the convention
was called to order by Chairman F. M.
Simpson of the state committee. Rev.
Elmer +. Pember. pastor of the Univer-
salist church of this city, offered fer
vent and eloquent prayer. The call
was read by Byron Boyd, secretary of
the State committee and then Senator
Eugene Hale of Ellsworth, was intro
duced as the temporary chairman.
Mr.. Simpson said: IL the pleasure of
introducing to you n gentleman whom
you all know and who needs no intro
duction to the Republicans of Maine"
Senator Hale was given n warm re-
ceptiOn and addressed the convention.
in substance, as follows:
love Maine, l love her sturdy Re-
publicansm. have a great deal of af-
lection for the large number of Demo-
Gratis who come to the Republican
party years ago when the free trade
proposition was made. and later when
it was proposed to debase the sound
= currency of this country. 1 have also
nant of the Democratic party who are
fighting between Parker and Hearst.
This convention, my friends, is the
greatest / have seen in Maine. and I
has presided over two. The Republic
can party has settled her questions, 1t
has given us the best currency that
ever light shone on, and she has given
us low taxes.
The Republican party has dealt with
living issues. 1t gave freedom to
Cuba and withdrew every soldier from
that island.
1t has taken our great eastern pos
sessions. fostered education and es-
tablished schools. 1t has taken up the
Panama canal which the people desire.
without bloodshed. has obtained con-
troll of the rights of that property and
will build and complete it to the salts
faction of the world. No Democratic
party could do that.
There Is one question not settled, the
tariff question. Now there ought to be
no doubt In Maine as to this question.
1 recall the last Democratic tariff. 1t
smOte the Industries of Maine from top
to bottom.
Senator Hale paid tribute to the late
Congressman Thomas b. Reed and
Nelson Dingley.
Senator Hale said in the past twenty
years he had been asked many times
II Prohibition profits and could posi-
lively say: 1T does prohibit
They have asked rs there no pro-
hibitiOn In Maine?" Is it nothing but
fraud and have been able to answer

He said that so years ago there was
much drinking of intoXicants but pro-
hibition changed this condition.
He recalled when every town had It's

keeping its part of the supplies and
liquors from the West Indies.
Senator Hale was frequently inter-
rupted by applause. especially when he
touched upon the tariff and prohibitory
questions, and the men who We're to
speak.

Rumford Falls. the State committee
was made committee on credentials.

the humblest member-for the nominee
of this convention.
l have listened with absorbing inter-
est and rapt attention to what has been
SO well and eloquently said of and con-
corning those distinguished Republic
cans who have been placed in nominal
ton here as candidates for the nomi-
nation for Governor, and can say that
endorse every word that has been
said as to their fitness and good quail
ties.
But, MIR. President and gentlemen,
there are others, at least there is one
other, equally well and favorably
known, equally we'll equipped and who
will make an equally strong candidate
and good Governor. You ask me where
he halls from.
1 answer, from the beautiful valley
of the Kennebec-that hotbed of stall
wart Rapublicanism-the home of Hill,
of Eurleigh, of Manley.
I answer, having been a Republican
all his life, he has not found it neces-
sary to announce it in advance Of the
meeting of this convention.
can say, however, that he glOries in
the policies and principles of the Re-
publican party.
He glcries in the record of the party
in this State, in itssappropriations for
hospitals and schools, and what it has
done for the uplifting of the State. He
does not view with alarm the increase
of Holsters on our sea front or trout
and salmon in our inland waters.
Having lived among farmers all his
life and having been identified with the
great and all-impOrtant agricultural
interests of the State, he does not think
big game in our forests a menace to
these interests Or that they retard
civilization or prevent the increase of
population.
Candor. however, cOmpels me to adj
nit that he belongs to the "office hold
ing gang" alluded to during the can
vass for delegates to this convention,
for he has served with distinction in
both branches of our Legislature and
in the executive council and has held
various federal offices. We in our town
think experience in public affairs is no
disqualification for the high office of
Governor.
Nominate him and instantly it will
be recognized that a firm and strong
man has been chosen.
His name is a tower Of strength
among the common people; his eminent
ability has long been recognized; his
fitness for the position is unquestioned.
Mr.. President, I place in nomination
as n candidate for Governor, in be-
half of the delegation from his native
own. a town that has shown no va
riableness, neither shadow of turning
in it's large majOrities for the Republic
can party during the fifty years of the
party's existence, Hon. Elliott Wood Of
Winthrop.
When Mr.. Carleton said that though
he was an office holder he denied that
ne had no right to take part in the
councils of the party there was great
demonstration, in which the great ma
jority of the delegates and by all the
spectators.

Hon. l.. T. Carleton of Winthrop,
nominated Hon. Elliott Wood, of VIM
throp, in these words:
It goes without Saying that the nomi-
nee of this magnificent gathering of
representative Republicans from every
city, town and plantation in the State
will be triumphaEtly elected by a very
large majority to the proud office of
Governor of the proud State of Maine,
and as Maine goes, so goes the Union.
Cicero, the greatest orator among
lawyers and the greatest lawyer
among orators, declared that no one
has lived in vain who has been consul.
1t is an historical truth that no one
lives in vain who has been or is identi-
fled with the Republican party in this
State and in this nation and votes its
ticket.
Today the Republicans of Maine are
divided in their choice of a candidate
for Governor; tomorrow they will be
united as one man-from the dis
tinguished president of this convention
whose long services to the party and
the country reflect so much credit and
such distinguished honor upon our

A Political Question

Find out what you want and then
rustic for it, This is your policy in
business. why not in politics? You are
not in politics? Then why are you hv-
ing under a government that is sup
posed to be cont oiled by the people
yourself among the number? Have
you handed over the affairs of your
government to the few bosses or the
one great boss? Do you honestly re-
pudiate your share of the duties and
responsibilities of the government
Are you content to see your country
gradually losing its democratic char
acter and institutions? Are you so
enamored of boss rule. which so long
prevailed in your own state. that you
think 1t would be the proper thing to
extend ii to the utmost limits?
If you answer in the affirmative to
a majority of these questions. then be
honest ard consistent and say you
regret the American revolution which
gave political freedom to freeborn men
and women.-Reno Journal.

which the young man was held could
not be calculated in any better way.
The plot was absolutely covered with
flowers formed into most beautiful de-
signs, and were viewed by friends and
acquaintances from all sections today.
The display is the grandest and most
solemn token to the memory Of the
dead seen in Winnemucca for some
time. Mr.. and Mrs. J. A. LaVoy Wis

for the many tenders of kind and deli

Reno to Tahoe

Reno, April 2S.-At a meeting of the
city council S. N. Griffiths, who. with
II. e. Huntington and others of Cali
fornia, is the principal owner of the
Washoe County Traction company.
announced that he and his associates
will build an electric road from this
city to Lake Tahoe. The first work
will begin just as soon as the snow
clears next month. Abundance of
power to ope. ate the road will be
generated by the Truckee river. Grif-
fths built the Fresno road, merging
his interest with Huntington but few
months ago. Work on the Reno line
starts this week. The proposed line
will be forty miles in length. 1t will
traverse a section of country equal in
scenic beauty to the Grand canyon of
the Colo. ado. The cou. Sc in view lies
along the banks of the Truckee, fol-
loving the numerous curves in that
grand stream from this city to the
fioodgatas of the great lake. Hereto
fore it has been necessary to go either
to Carson and travel to the lake by
stage or go by way of Truckee.
