FOR VICE PRESIDENT
Effort to "Smoke Out" Senator Fair
banks Did Not Succeed.-A Pre-
Iiminary Forecast of the Platform
as to the Tariff.

Chicago, ILL.,, June 20.-The fore
noon trains brought in straggiers and
the ranks of nearly all the state dele
cations have been filed. With the
arrival of the delayed delegations
were eliminated all the obstacles to
holding caucuses. State headquarters
were sought and ths program of the
day ascertained. 1t developed that
most of the caucuses would be held
late in the day or tonight. Senator
Fairbanks continued silent regarding
the vice presidency which has caused
some of his strongest supporters N
his own delegation to advise him to
make the announcement todev taat
he would be glad to have the nomi-
will caucus today and the convent II
begins tomorrow the hotels are not
crowded They are not even well Sill
ed AS the day advanced it became
evident that the effort to smoke
OUT Senator Fairbanks would not
succeed The senator remained silent
but through his friends reiterated his
position to the effect tat the vi ?
presidency is not an Office 10 be
man nominated for it. We pledge our
selves to make such changes from
time to time in the tariff schedules
as changing conditions make neces-
sary." That is the language of th,,
proposed platform as how agreed up
on, and it is evident that no further
concessions will be made to tnose
demanding a revision.
Chicago, June 20.-SeldOm if ever
before in the history of the Republi-
can party has it been possible to make
in advance of the assembling of the
national convention as is the casa
this year. A draft of the platform
was completed weeks ago, after a Sc
ries of White House conferences am
ong the party leaders, and if any
changes are made by the committee
on resolutions they will be of the
most minor character
After the usual expression of con-
fidence in the eternal principles of
the Republican party. the platform
will specifically commend Theodore
Roosevelt. the man, for his faithful
adherence to the policies of McKin
ley for his fearless discharge of the
duties of his high office for the inn
portant part he played in the crisis
of the anthracite coal strike. and for
representing the highest ideals of
American manhood.
The platform will then review the
foreign relations of the United States
under President ROOseyelt's admins
tration. asserting that no function OF
his office renders an untried and un-
safe president more liable to involve
the nation in grave and inextricable
complications than the administra-
ton of it's foreign affairs. Among the
the achievements of Theodore ROOse
velt's administration will be enumer
ated the accomplishment of Cuban re-
ciprocity and the ratification of the
treaty with Cuba which incorporates
the Platt amendment. The wise and
conservative course of the admins

WHEAT BREEDING HIS FAD.
Interesting Tests Conducted by J. N.

An experiment which, if it proves

principle that is applied in breeding and
improving horses and cattle, and talks

Totten, whose battery had done eff

little Bob Armstrong, to ride back to
Springfield on his limbers.
Do the boys remember the big
colonel of one of Sigel's regiments? A
man of his immense physique must

THEY FACED BOTH WAYS.
Trouble Finding Out How Some Prom
inent Men Stood at Opening
of Civil War.

At an informal meeting OF several
members of the Missouri Society a
New York, at which the situation ia
the far east was discussed, says the
Sun, this story was told by an ex-
confederate:
There is one advantage which each
nation has" he said. Il reckon every
Russian is for Russia, and every Jap
will be for Japan,
The trouble in this country on the
eve OF the civil war was TO find QUIT
how prominent men in some sections
stood. Many persons waited to see
how these certain prominent men we're
going to jump.
One of the most conspicuous cases
of uncertainty in my state was the late
Col. James n. Burnes. then of Platte
county, afterward a millionaire. and
later congressman of more than av-
erage ability. He was an orator. a
man of culture and a perfect Chester
field in his manner.
, He had married into one of the
most exclusive families of the Platte
purchase. Mrs. Burnes was as bril-
liant in her sphere as her husband in
his.
"A few months before actual hostile
ties, when many were waverirg.
meeting was held at the county seat
OF old Platte. to settle the question of
union or secession. Several men
whose names later became part of
the history of the conflict were pres
ent.
The trend of opinion was soon
found to be all one way-for secession.
Col. Burnes was the last speaker.
When he had finished everybody pres
ent actually believed that one souther-
er could lick six Yankees, and every
body expected to see Burnes raise and
equip regiment
He had told the meeting that he
was not only willing to spend all of
his money in behalf of the cause. but.
he pledged all of his wifes property
as well Both were rich.
THE war came and Platte county
furnished more than her quota of vol
unteers, but James Burnes was not
among those who went out to die. On
the contrary a sort of dumb ague came
upon the brilliant young lawyer. and
for awhile his whereabouts was I'M
known
mot long after, when the union
troops were in possession of the coun-
ty, and meetings were held to induce
those who had not gone out for the
southern cause to rally round the flag
Col. Burnes showed up at one of these
gatherings, at which union soldiers
were on guard. The chairman of the
meeting was a union captain. Col.
Burnes was the principal speaker, and
the way he eXpatiated on treason and
the crime of secession was a caution.
"A short time after, debate on the
issues Of the day took place in st. Jo-
seph, the disputants being Judge Silas
Woodson, afterward governor of the
state, and Col. Burnes Both were can
didates for congress from that district
"WOodSOn was constitutional
union man, which meant, in Missouri,
the union with the negro left in slav-
cry. He had, however, been accused at
the start of being too much union. In
his speech he referred to Burnes' offer
to help the south with his and his wifes
fortunes, and then quoted from Burnes'
union speech.
'Burnes replied that 1t was better to
start wrong and then get right, than to
start right and then go wrong The
sentiment of the meeting was about
