rense for pilgrimage TO the political

the press boye, the most complaisant
self'sacriticing and obliging people on
earth, and who do more to build up
political regulations than all other
forces combined, were assigned place
near the "prompter's corner" on the
stage, with brick walls and a proscen-
Ium column to look through to see
who might be addressing the conven-
ton. An en'erprising city, east and
west of the mountains, should con-
struct a wigwam for political conven-
tons alone, which may be used FREE
quently for other purposes requiring
means for accommodation of large
bodies OF men. A theater is by no
means an ideal place for conventions,
requiring ample space and means of
communication between the many
delegations for facilitating the bust
ness and promoting the comfort Of all.
Such building need not be expensive
in construction, nor OF ornate finish,
it being the custom to cover every.
thing with flags, evergreens and bunt-
ing on party occasions, and generally
only a roof is needed to protect from
sunshine when conventions are held.
These wigwams could be used for hold
ing county fairs, and they will tend to
encourage and promote such displays.

PENNSYLVANIA DEMOCRATS
Platform Declarations on the Unsafe
and Brratic Roosevelt.

The Democratic State Convention of Penn
sylvania on Tuesday selected delegates TO the
national convention, who are unrestricted as
to Presidential candidates, and adopted a
strong platform, of which the following is an
extract:
''It is obvious that since the accession OF
President Roosevelt TO the Presidency the
thoughtful sentiment of the country has be-
come distrustful of his administration and fear
full consequences of his extraordinary, erratlc
and autocratic assumption and exercise OF
power.
"All that conservative men feared as a re-
suit of his accession to power has come to
pass Safe, dignifed administration has given
away to strenuous, spectacular partisanship,
national and international problems of vast
import have become the sport of personal am
bition, and have been fashioned and nodded
as stepping stones to the Presidential success
sion.
To-day the country finds in Theodore
Roosevelt standing menace to constitutional
government, 10 International peace and to
business stability and prosperity. Ii turns TO
the Democratic organization for safety and
relief-to that party of conservatism which
from its birth and through so many years was
the bulwark against which the spirit of sec
tionalism, fanaticism, radicaliSm and the
crude, wild theories of experimentalists dashed
in vain.
The Democratic party is to be congratu-
lated on the fact that we are now able to unite
upon the cardinal tenets of our party faith and
their application to the vital, pressing ques-
tions of today

The Baltimore County Democrat believes
the county tax rate will have TO be increased
from 65 cents on the one hundred dollars to
20 cents, because Of the demands for improve
ments in the county adjacent to Baltimore
City aud the decrease of the revenue by rea-
son of the repeal of the mortgage income tax.
The Democrat says the basis of taxation will
be decreased also, because county residents,
who owned buildings in the burned district in
Baltimore, are disposing Of bonds and stocks
to raise funds with which to rebuild. An in
crease Of 5 cents in the county tax rate and
81 in the State levy will make such differ
ence that many taxpayers will regret the re-
peal Of the mortgage tax.
