That Republican Platform.

Concerning the national platform of
the republican party, adopted at Chi
cagO. Chairman COwherd of the dem
ocTatic congressional committee said:
Heretofore the republican party has
had a record for holiness. AT Chicago
it established a record for timidity and
evasion. The platform is remarkable
mainly. for what it does not say. The
labor situation is as acute as at any
time in our history. yet there is no
announcement in regard to it. There
is no longer war in the Philippines.
Surely the country is entitled at least
TO know what is to be the future pol
icy as to those islands-the Philip
pine plank does not disclose il.
The tariff plank is an open strad-
die. to be used as promise of reduc-
ton of duties TO the voters and
pledge of their maintenance to the
manufacturers. Governor Cummins
says: 1t justified the Iowa idea.
General Grosvenor says: 1t is n
stand-pat plank Chairman Payne
says: 1t leaves the question open.
Ii was evidently not intended as
plank. but n trap.
The platform says: Our admin
istration of the great department of
the government has been honest This
in the face of the notorious frauds
discovered in the postoffice depart
ment; the scandals in the land and
Indian bureaus which the secretary of
the interior is Concealing with so much
difficulty, and the forced adjournment
of congress in order to prevent any
investigation. must be taken either as
sarcasm or humor.
The negro plank is the only hon
est plank in the platform-it is in
famous. McKinley's noble utteranCes

recognized policy of a white rule for
southern states was thought by pat
riotic men TO signal the death of sec

ing the miracle grotto" at Lourdes and
prohibiting further pilgrimages to the
famous Pyrenean village on the part
of sufferers who hope to be cured there
by supernatural MEANS the results are
likely to be striking. Lourdes itself
probably will be ruined to all intents
and purposes and the town now grown
rich as the result of it's worldwide
fame is likely to fall back into the OBJ
scurity that enveloped it before the
peasant girl, Bernadette, declared she
was directed by Mary to bid Christen-
dom come to Lourdes and be healed.
To shut up Lourdes as they already
have shut up the Chartreuse and Bene-
dictine monasteries would be an over
whelming victory for the anti -Cleri-
Gals, for at the moment that this ia
nous grotto shrine is closed, Roman
Catholicism loses stronghold of thirty
years standing which many declare to
be the main prop of the faith in
France. But to the world generally
such fate for the "hoIy town" prob
ably would be most significant as
bringing to an end an annual series of
spectacles which are among the most
amazing to be witnessed on earth.

ing to be cured. Some of those who can
move about PROSTATE themselves on
the ground before the figure of the vir-
gin, others kiss the rocky walls
which are actually being worn away
by such kisses-while others press their
rosaries to the rocks to consecrate
them. All are in a perfect ectasy of
hope and faith.
The baths at Lourdes which are sup
posed to perform the miracles furnish,
perhaps, the saddest sight of all. In
the little marble rooms, three for men
and six for the women, a staff of at
tendants rapidly undress the faithful,
and souse them into the icy water
which flows into the large tubs di-
rectly from the spring above. AS the
water is changed only twice daily, k
is anything but pleasant to the sight
or smell, but although consumptives,
persons with scrofulous diseases and
sufferers with almost everything else
follow each other rapidly, the nurses
claim never to have known of a pa

ease he did not bring there.
Has the sacred cure any real virtue +?
Here is what a Protestant, clear
headed English woman saw not long
ago: A young man, named Gargan,
formerly mail clerk, had been thrown
from his postal car in an accident, and
after being given up by his doctors
was taken to Lourdes. For nearly two
years previously he had lain in bed
