NO CHANGE IN RULES
VOTE IS NECESSARY
 TO NOMINATE.
Proposition to Permit Majority to Nomlnate is Voted Down in the Committee By
 24 to {.

St. Louis, July 6.-When the com mittee on rules met, the IIlinois mem l Der, F. P. Morris. proposed that a simple majority only be required to nominate candidates, and not a two- thirds majority as has been the prac- tice since 1882.
 We ought not to expose ourselves. said G. F. Milton of Tennessee, Ito | the charge that we desire to nominate
 Judge Parker by a device contrary to the usual course. I am from a State gation wants him and want him; but we would injure him and ourselves were we to change the time- -honored rule" Colonel Thomas F. Grady of New York, who has been chosen chairman, said:
 "The two-thirds rule was first adopt ed to prevent the control of the party by a section of the country. It was
 not then dreamed that the West would develope as a counterweight to the East. After the sectional danger was passed the rule was continued so that delegates from Republican portions of the country should not be able to nom- mate the candidates"
 L. Irving Hanley of Delaware. op-
 posed the change, because. he said, a little arithmetic would show that un- der the unit rule controlling State delegations 1t would be possible for minority of delegates to choose the candidate If a majority in the conven- tfon sufficed to nominate.
 On show of hands the chairman counted four for the change and twenty-four against.
 The rules of the last convention were adopted without change. They are adopted from the rules of the House of Representatives under the Crisp speakership.
 The committee by a unanimous vote decided to recommend to the conven- tion that the delegates from Porto Rico be permitted to vote. A proposal that the same privilege be given to delegates from the Philippines was de- feated. 13 to IS. The committee ap- piauded Mir. Handy's remarks that Democrats hoped to see the Filipino electing their own President while Porto Rico was indissolubly bound to the United States.
 Dr. Mary Walker asked the commit tee to recommend the admission of women delegates. Colonel Grady said that question was not within the pur- view of the committee.

BRITONS TAKE FORT
HANDFUL OF MEN DIsLODGE 1000
 THIBETANS.
Lieutenant Grant and His Men Scale Breach In Wall and Carry the Place By Storm-An
 Officer Killed.

Gyangtse, Thibet, July 6.-The jong, or fort. held by 1000 Thibetans, was captured by a mere handful of British and Indian soldiers today. The excite ment of the long day eliminated in the scaling of a breach in the walls by Lieutenant Grant, who was followed by a mixed company of Gurkans and fusil- iers. They climbed the cleft in the rock in the face of a hail of fire and a fusi- Jade of stones, which were hurled on their heads by the frantic Thibetans. A stone struck Lieutenant Grant, sweep ing him off his feet. but he recovered himself and was the first over the breach.
 At dusk the battle was over and | though fitful bursts of musketry were still to be heard. the British held the "jong" which dominates the monastery / beyond.
 The plan of attack included three col umns which were to rush the villages fringing the base of the rock At mid night last night the British troops be- gan to move into position. The left and centre columns were able to enter the village by sunrise, but so heavy was the fire directed on the right col umn that 1t was impossible to make any
 
 o'clock, however, the whole fringe of villages was captured.
 Lieutenant Gordon. who was leading party of Sikhs. was killed.
 The housetops were full of Thibetans who pelted the right column with, bull lets for hours.
 The British ten pounders made a breach in the wall. between the two towers on the face of the cliff, the wall falling down in great masses.
 Shortly afterward an explosion oc- cured in the powder magazine of the Thibetans by which many must have been killed This. however. did not dismay the Thibetans.
 When the reserve companies of fusi- Hers and gurkhas advanced and de- livered their assault the Thibetans opened a heavy fire. but only one man was hit owing to the open order adopted by the British.
 By dusk the helmets of fusiliers and gurkhas were to be seen on the high est buildings of the jong. The men were cheering.

IS DECLINED BY BOTH
BAILEY AND CLARK DO NOT WANT
 THE CHAIRMANsHIP.
Former Desires to Be on the Floor to Combat Bryan, and Clark is Slated to Nominate COckrell. s

St. Louis. July 6.-Senator J. w. Bai- Icy of Texas, and Representative Champ Clark of Missouri, both have declined to accept the permanent chair manship of the Democratic National Convention.
 When the Committee on Permanent Organization met 1t organized without delay. Senator Bailey and Represent ative Clark were put in nomination and the former was elected by a vote of IS to l6. The Committee then unanimous ly elected Charles A. Walsh of Iowa, Secretary of the National Committee, as permanent secretary of the Conven- tion. All other officers of the tempo iary organization were made perma- nent and the Committee adjourned un- der the impression that It's labors were ended.
 Several members went to the Expo sition grounds and others dispersed so that a quorum could not be found an hour later. When Senator Bailey was informed of his election, he announced at once that he could not accept it, as he desired to be on the floor when the platform is under consideration. He expected to combat any attempt from the Bryan forces to inject into the plat form blanks which do not meet the approval of the Committee. There- fore the chairmanship should be given to MT. Clark, he said. and a commit tee consisting of John F. Sheehan and P. P. McCarron of the New York del- egation, called upon him at the South ern Hotel and made the tender.
 Mir. Clark answered. that he was en- gagged to put the name of Senator Cock rell in nomination for the Presidency. and therefore would have to be on the floor during the Convention. He was urged to reconsider and finally agreed to send a telegram to Senator Cockrell to the effect that the place had been offered him. If Senator Cockrell makes no objection. MT. Clark will accept. In view of the certainty that Parker will be nominated. 1t is believed that Senator Cockrell will ask that his name be withdrawn.
 At late hour tonight the few mem- bers in the Southern Hotel were trying to find a quorum in order to hold a meeting.

A tariff for revenue is the oldest
form of raising revenue in existence
except the head tax. 1t is the
English system. 1t never upbuilt

Protection is one of the funda-

the principles of protection.
The democratic party is irrevo-

citizen votes for a democratic can

votes to uproot protection in this

From the earliest times honey ap.

nary favor as a universal specific for
human ills. AS a hair restorer it was
largely recommended, rubbed in plen-
tifully night and morning, and if dead
bees were dried, pounded and worked
up into thick paste with the honey
it's hair-producing capabilities were
much enhanced. This mess had to be
plastered on the bald places of the
head overnight, with infallible results
in the morning, if one may credit a
certain fifteenth century writer. For
weak eyes the same authority says to
take a handful of the heads of bees,
burn them and mingle the ashes with
honey gathered in the dog Gays. The
eyes were then anointed literally with
the mixture and clearness of vision
was the invariable reward.

The Sorrowinq Mother,

Last night l dreamed he came to me;
/ held him close and wept and said,
MY little child where have you been?
l was afraid that you were dead
Then l awoke; it almost seemed
AS though my arms could feel him yet
l had been sobbing In my sleep;
My tears had made the pillows wet
I cannot think of him at all
AS the bright angel he must be,
But only as my little child
Who may be needing me-
Do not make him grow too wise,
AngelS-ye who know;
/ am dull and slow to learn
Toiling here below,
Do not fill his heart too full
With your heavenly joy,
Lest the mothers place be lost
With her little boy.
Last night the air was mild;
The moon rose clear though late
And somehow then 1t did not seem
So very hard to wait
There seemed so much to learn,
So much for me to do,
Before my lessons here were done
And / was ready, too
Those may dare to doubt who have
Their loved ones here below;
For me. ! do not now believe,
l do not hope-I know.

WORK AND LABOR.

We don't like the word ''labor''
but there is no word that sounds
more unsteady in our ears than
sswork". We are always sorry
"Labor Day" was not called
"W orker's Day.. An eminent
Greek scholar once informed us
that the scriptural phrase SO often
quoted, "The laborer is worthy of
his hire" If properly translated
would read, "a workman is entitled
to his wages" and wherever the
word sfabor" occurs in Holy Writ,
the idea would be better conveyed
if it was readered tfwork".
To our mind the word s'labor''
conveys the idea Of seryitade, but
work proclaims freedom.
Men labor because they have to,
they work because they want to.
Slaves labor without compensation,
free men work for wages. Men
labor ia penitentiaries and prisons,
