We have already shown that our policy
IS to do fair and equal justice. to all
men. Construction of Isthmian canal
is now an assured fact. But
most certainly it is unwise to
entrust the carrying out of so
momentous policy to those who
have endeavored to defeat the whole
undertaking. A party is worthy only
in so far as it promotes the national
interest and every official high or low
can serve his party best by rendering
20 the people the best service of
which he is capable. Effective govern
ment comes only as the result of the
loyal cooperation of many different
persons. We who have been intrusted
with power as public servants during
the past seven years of administration
and legislation now come before the
people content to be judged by our
record of achievement. In the years
that have gone by we have made our

swervingly follow out the great lines
of public policy which the republican
party has laid DOWN.

Fire in a Lard Refinery.

CHICAGO, July 27.-Fire started at
$50 this morning in the lard refir cry
of Swifts plant and destroyed two
thirds of the building before it was
brought under control. The loss is
$4,000. The structure is so situated
that a spread of the flames would have
meant a destruction of the entire pl mt,
but the prompt work of the fireInen
now on guard in the packing district
prevented further damage. The
flames originated, it is believed, from
an overheated dynamo. The GRO Eds
were not permitted within the pack
ers' zone in which the plant is situa :ed.
No teamsters reported for work his
morning and the tieup in that din &c
ton is complete.

ESOPUS, July 27.-The democratic

prominent democrats. numbering in all

were driven to ROsemont in a long line
of carriages. Among the first to alight
from the train was Dave Hill with
August and Perry Belmont. Chairman
Taggart, Secretary WOodson and Hill
were taken in Judge Parker's wagon
ette Tammany Leader Murphy was
prevailed upon ito await the arrival of
the committeeman, but his meeting
with Hill betOkened no particular
cordiality. Judge Parker introduced
them and the following hand shake
was perfunctory. The crowd. after
shaking the nominees hand, spread
out over the lawn to talk politics.
Parker's greeting to Chairman Taggart
was effusive, and the pair We're soon
closely engaged in conversation.

ROOSEVELT IS NOTIFIED
ACCEPTS THE NOMINATION
Speaker Cannon Delivers the Speech Motif caa the Fidelity and Courage
of the President and Scores His Critics in the Democratic Ra--1he
President Euogzes His OmRecord and That His Party

NEW YORK, July 27.-The keynote
of the republican presidential cam
paign was sounded today. In the pres
ence of committee of distinguished
party leaders representing every state
and territory of the Union who called
at Sycamore Hill to formally notify
him of his nomination by the Chicago
convention. President Roosevelt read
his letter OF acceptance, discussing at
length the political events of his ad-
ministration and his views on the plat
form adopted by the party at Chicago.
The notification ceremonies took
place early this afternoon and We're
marked by extreme simplicity. The
members of the notification committee
and a number of other eminent repub-
licans arrived at Oyster Bay shortly
before noon and were driven at once
to the Roosevelt home. After the
president had shaken hands with each
member of the party the visitors gath
cred on the lawn in front of the house
nrenaratOrv to the formaIities of the
occasion. The crowd was consider
ahlv larger than had been anticipated
and Secretary Loeb and his assistants
were kept busy for some time in pro-
vidine for the comfort of the guests.
Sneaker Cannon was intrusted with
the task of delivering the notification
speech and he acquitted himself with
credit as was evidenced by the en-
tbusiasn1 with which his remarks We're
greeted. The presidents speech of ac-
accantance was delivered from the
,,oranda and was listened to with the
closest attention by those present. At
tho conclusion of his speech three
cbaars and tiger were given in honor
of the president. The formal ceremon-
;aS lasted scarcely half an hour and
ofter they were concluded the presi-
dant and Mrs. Roosevelt entertained
tho visitors at luncheon, which was
,oid on the wide veranda which en-
circles the Sycamore Hill house,
Owing to the decision of Secretary
1oeb who had doubtless consulted
with the president. the townspeople at
1orpa were not permitted TO visit Saga
,,ora TO listen to the speeches. The
nrobibition has caused a good deal of
hard feeling. In 1900 the villagers
ma participated in the jollification.
Sneaker Cannon in addressing the
president said:
THE republican party under your
,oodershin. keeps its record from the
beginning under Lincoln of doing the
riebt thing at the right time and in
tho right way. Notwithstanding the op-
nosition of those who oppose rlghe

that he could hope for little help from
the citizens, nor did he ask It. He
was one man against all the rest, and
he did not put mis- hope in posses.
At the first he was compelled to
shoot a few cowboys as a guaranty
Of good faith, but he did not aim to
kill them. He was simply making an
impression on their minds. It was his
way of convincing them that he was
the c%onservator Of the public peace
in that locality-that he was no joke.
After q few weeks there was a
proper understanding. Tough charac-
tiers disappeared. When the COW
punchers came TO town they left their
guns with Tom Smith, who gave them
back when they had recovered from
a spree. Tom always treated them
square"
Finally, after he had made a quiet
town Of Abilene, he was killed while
trying TO arrest a murderer. He died
with his boots on-and his marshal's
star.
Said the orator at the unwilling of
Tom Smiths monument:
Somewhere pmehow, had been
deep in his soul a strong
sense Of plain Justice, a grave regard
the law. and for the rights of
and a sturdy discharge of Of
fetal duty"
And that is eulogy enough for any
man.
Comment: The day of need for the
justice-lovlng. peace-enforcing,
aw-regardlng Tom Smiths is not past.
The cowboys no longer shoot up the
own. But there are others.
