CONSERVED AND ADVANCED BY
THE REPUBLICANS.
Speaker Cannon Eulogizes the Benefits
of Protection and Contrasts the
Policies of the Democrats.

CHICAGO June 22.-Speaker Cannon on
taking the chair as permanent chairman OF
the republican national convention spoke
follows:
THE republican party was born with the
declaration that slavery was sectional or
local and that freedom was national 1t
has ever been a national party. its policies
benefitting every section and every man in
the republic. 1t made its first successful
contest for power in 1850. with Abraham
Lincoln as it's standard bearer Secession
followed. The war for the maintenance of
such a contest of arms the world has never
seen before and freedom became universal
within the borders of the republic. With
bankrupt treasury and a bankrupt credit
the party. under the lead of Lincoln. went
back to the policy of Washington and
wrote uyOn the statute books the revenue
laws imposing duties on imports that would
tect every citizen of the United States in
diversifying the industries of the republic.
1t was contest for free men and for tree
labor everywhere within our borders The
policy of protection has been the Shiboleth
of the republican party from that day to
this. Under this policy, from an insignlh-
cant manufacturing country in 1869 by leaps
and bounds, while still remained first in
agriculture among the nations of the earth,
have become more than first in manu-
features. More than one-third of all the
manufactured products of the whole earth

CUSTODIAN OF THE FLAG
Pleasant Berth to Be Given a Naval
Petty Officer

Lieut.. David F. Sellers of the navy has
been charged with the delicate and import
ant duty of finding suitable petty officer in
the navy for assignment to duty at the
White House in charge of the national
nag. displayed over the residence of the
President AS is well known. the flag Is
used to indicate that the President is al
home. 1t Is raised at sunrise and lowered
at sunset in strict accordance with mill
tary regulations. Different sizes of flags
are used according to the weather. from
small storm flag to the standard post
flag. Owing to the many mishaps which
have occurred in the past to the flag on
the White House 1t has been concluded
that its proper use and care is sufficient
duty Tor one man Heretofore the raising
and lowering of the flag has been intrusted
to one of the men around the house having
numerous other duties to attend to- conse-
quently 1t has happened that the flag has
been flown In distress, that is with the
Union down, when there was no occasion
for such a signal, and at other times the
man in charge has forgotten to raise or
lower it at the proper times or to change
1t to suit the changed conditions of the
weather. To meet these conditions, which
have sometimes proved embarrassing. 1t
has been decided to have a capable man at
| the White House, whose sole duty Ii shall
be to look after the flag. In looking for
such man it was natural the authorities
should fayOrably consider the selection Of
| a petty officer of the navy as all such Off
| GERS have had at least twenty years serv-
| ice on shipboard and are thoroughly ia
miliar with all the regulations and customs
governing the display of the national EN-.
| blem. Lieut. Selle-s Is one Of the Presi-
dents military aids and he Is also con-
nected with the enlistment division of the
bureau of navigation. and SO Is well inform
| ed regarding the records OF the men from
| whom the selection is to be made. The
| choice will undoubtedly fall upon some
man who has rendered conspicuousIy merl-
| torious service and who may. by receiv-
| ing this pleasant assignment. receive some
recognition for his services.
