cerity Of our declarations and the fl
deity with which we shall give them
effect. Because we have been CON
stant in principle, loyal to our beliefs
and faithful to our promises, we are
entitled to be believed and trusted
now.
We shall ask it because the charac-
ter of the party gives assurance OF
good government A great political
organization, competent to govern, is
not chance collection of individuals
brought together for the moment as
the shifting sands are piled up by
wind and sea, to be swept away, to
be formed and reformed again. 1t
is a growth Traditions and senti-
ments reaching down through strug-
giles of years gone, and the stress and
heat of old conflicts, and the influence
of leaders passed away, and the in
grained habit of applying fixed rules
of Interpretation and Of thought, all
give to political party known and IN
alienable qualities from which must
follow in it's deliberate judgment and
ultimate action, like results for good
or bad government. We do not deny
that other parties have in their mem
bership men of morality and patriot
ism; but we assert with confidence
that above all others, by the influ-
ences which gave it birth and have
maintained its life, by the causes for
which it has striven, the ideals which
it has followed, the republican party
as a party has acquired a character
which makes its ascendancy the best
guarantee of a government loyal to
principle and effective in execution.
Through it more than any other polit-
ical organization the moral sentiment
of America finds expression. 1t can
not depart from the direction of its
tendencies. From what it has been
may be known certainly what it must
be. Not all of us rise to its stand
ard: not all of us are worthy of its
glorious history; but as whole this
great political organization-the par
ty of Lincoln and Mckinley not
fail to work in the spirit Of its past
and in loyalty to great ideals.
We shall ask the continued conf
dence of the people because the candi-
dates whom we present are of proved
competency and patriotism, fitted to
fill the Offices for which they are nom
mated. to the credit and honor of our
country.
We shall ask it because the present
policies of our government are bene-
fetal and ought not to be set aside;
and the peoples business Is being
well done and ought not to be inter
fered with.

he has executed the purposes and con-
tinueds unbroken the policy of Presi-
dent Mckinley for the peace, pros

and far-sighted wisdom
AS we gather in this convention,
our hearts go back to the friend--the
never to be forgotten friend, whom
when last we met we acclaimed with
one accord as our universal choice to
bear second time the highest honor
in the nations gift; and back still,
memory goes through many a year of
leadership and loyalty.
How wise and how skillful he was!
How modest and self-effacing! How
dep his insight into the human heart,
How swift the intuitions of his sympa-
thy! How compelling the charm or
his gracious presence! He was so
unselfsh, so thoughtful of the happi-
ness of others. so genuine lover OF
his country and his kind. And he
was the kindest and tenderest friend
who ever grasped another's nand.
Alas, that his virtues did plead in
vain against cruel fate!
Yet we may rejoice, that while he
lived he was crowned with honor;
that the rancor of party strife had
ceased; that success in his great
tasks, the restoration Of peace, the
approval of his countrymen, the af-
fection of his friends, gave the last
quiet months in his home at Canton

WASHINGTON, March President
Smith was on the stand again this
morning in the Smoot hearing. He
devoted much time to expltining how
the church governed, showing that
Smoot as an apostle had nothing to do
with its judicial affairs, and that acts
of officials were submitted to members
who exercised great liberty when it
came to acts of ratification, frequently
revising them. He said even revela-
tons had been amended by majority
of the church, and that an amended
revelation thus became a law of the
church.
The witness declared that Senator
Smoot had never discussed with him
his (Smith's) relations with his plural
wives. nor had he ever protested
against them.
The list of the elective officers was
submitted to show how few had been
Mormons and how little publication
there was exercised by the church.
