MRS. JOS. f. ROBINSON ILL.
to a Hospital in Richmond -
Lodge Officers Installed.
Especial to The Messenger.)

(SDeClal TO Inc McSSciScI.)
Goldsboro, July 1.-THE improve
ments made for the past few weeks
to Willow Dale cemetery is very graf
flying to those who hold the place in
a sacred way. Some few months ago
a special act of the legislature put
the cemetery in the hands of a board
of trustees, and took it out of the
hands of the city authorities. The
wisdom of the action has already
been demonstrated. Besides those
already made, other Improvements are
contemplated by the board. which add
materially to the appearance of the
place.
The host of friends of Col. and Mrs
Joseph e. Robinson all over the State
will regret exceedingly to know that
Mrs. Robinson had to be taken to a
hospital in Richmond last night for
special treatment for a disease from
which she has been suffering for sonIe
weeks. She has been confined to her
room for quite a while, and has found
no relief. 1t is feared that an opera
ton will have to be performed before
the relief for which she is seeking is
realized.

Significance Of Little Word In the
Republican Platform.

The plank OF the Republican nation-
al platform concerning protection coz
tains this piece OF timber:
I'VE insist upon the maintenance oe
the principles OF protection. and, there
fore. rates OF duty should be readjusted
ONLY when conditions have so chang
ed that the public interest demands.
their alteration.
In the original draft OF the platform
as submitted TO the committee on res
olutions the word only did not ap-
pear. That word was inserted by the
committee. II gives special color to
the declaration. IL carries an impii-
cation OF its own. 1t puts IN a limit
withour the word only" the declara-
ton would be interpreted as rather
favoring the revision OF the tariff. With
the word IL viii be interpreted rs
rather resisting IL until 1t Is forced. Il
Is only a difference OF shading, but the
difference seems on casual consider4-
ton TO be quite distinct
But turn IL another way. Put the
proposition interrogatiyely. Ought
rates OF duty to be readJusted" ex-
cept when conditions have so changed
that the public interest demands their
alteration Ought they to be read
iusted when the public interest does
not demand their alteration? Plainly
not. Clearly. then. they ought TO %
readjusted "only when conditions have
so changed that the public interest de
mands their alteration" Approached
in this. way the proposition tusufieS
itself. This gives IL another color and
goes far TO remove the doubt OF the
question which a casual reading might
suggest.
There is another and broader con-
sideration. II Is for the convention 10
declare principles. II Is for the pract-
cal machinery of the government-for
the administration and for congress
to determine the time and method for
their application. The convention de-
clared that protection which guards
and develops our industries is carcs-
nal policy of the Republican party 1t
is declared further. that the mainte-
nance of protection Is so vital that
rates of duty should be read1usted
only when conditions have so changed
that the public interes, demands their
alteration" This defines and deter
mines the conditions under which read
justment should be made. But when
those conditions exist Is a matter for
Congress TO decide. Protection Is the
foundation and must be absolute. Re
vision of rates depends upon conditions
which it is for Congress to consider and
determine.-Philadelp Press(Rep).

''Boneiess Hams'' for Breakfast.

Sam Bernard recently told the New
York Times a story OF the wit of u
waitress in a theratrical boarding
house who had become rather soured
at the absence of tips from two unfor-
tunate actors who had been forced to
economiZe. He said: "One morning
when 1 went in for breakfast took a
seat at the same table with the impe-
cun:ous ones, and Maggie approached
for the order.
Mr.. Bernard she began, what Is
the meaning of the slang word "bone?'
The sum of 81 is a bone I ex-
planned, innocently.
She smiled demurely. What Is a

nard?

st. Louis, July 10.-The national
committee, new in it's makeup. met
at $3.50 O'Clock this morning. and
again at 4 o'clock this afternoon with
the avowed intention on behalf of the
supporters OF Taggart, OF Indiana, of
organizing by electing him chairman.
The early morning meeting was not
fully attended. and the object aimed
at was not accomplished. II was
pointed out by Norman E. Mack, of
New York, that it would be discour-
teous to take any action until Mr..
Parker, as the candidate, was con-
suited.
The Taggart men, while not having
enough to elect, stiH suggested that
David B. Hill. VIM. F. Sheehan and
August Belmont the candidates
friends, were still here. and adopted
a resolution that they ba invited to
meet the committee this afternoon.
AT the afternoon session. Chairman
Jones, or the old committee, asserted
that the contemplated action would
De unprecedented, and in fact lille
gal. 1t YVES also stated that at a late
hour the convention adopted a reso-
luton authorizing Mr.. Jones to call
the new committee together in New
York at such time as he might sug-
gest.
Senator Hill and Mr.. Sheehan left
for New York at noon, and therefore
could not attend the meeting.
Mr.. Jones made this statement:
''The national convention, by spe-
cific resolution adopted last night,
authorized me. in fact instructed me,
to call the first meeting of the new
committee in New York city. Until
call it, the new committee cannot or
ganize, and meetings by it have been
unauthorized. Let me say forcibly.
II need be, that acting under the con-
vention authority, I will call the ma
tional committee to meet in New
York city at such time as Judge Park
er shall designate, for before call it
L shall consult him. 1t would be an
unprecedented thing for the new COM
mittee to organize without consulta-
ton with the candidates. Such a
thing was never heard of"
Just after the afternoon session be-
gan, Mr.. Taggart, who was presiding,
was asked to retire. so that he need
not he embarrassed. August Bel
mont, of New York, was called into
the room, and asked to give Judge
Parker's views. He said he could not
do so.
Col. Guffey. Of Pennsylvania, insist
ed that precedent demanded that the
committee courteously await Judge
Parker's opinion. I'm fact he said.
1.-The resolution Of last night precluded
any action until Chairman Jones is
sues a call for New York"
Senator Bailey, of Texas, said the
matter should be settled at once. 1t
was customary, he said, for the COM
mittee to meet Immediately after the
adjournment and elect, and a reso-
luton was passed last Thursday to
that effect by the convention. Il
guess he said. that We can have
Judge Parker's views in few min
utes from his friends here, if they
care to give it,
After nearly two hours debate,
Senator Bailey offered to compromise
if the committee would adopt reso-
luton indorsing the candidacy or
Thomas Taggart for chairman of the
! committee. Mr. Mack agreed to thi>
; and the resolution was adopted. The
committee therefore will meet in New
York on the call of Chairman Jones.
