president.
We quote from dispatch which appeared in
the Lawrence World (Rep.) last Monday;
"Seuator Lodge, who will be chairman OF
the committee on resolutions, arrived
with copy OF part of the Republican plat
form in his pocket. He is rot the only one
that has seen the essential planks IN the Re'
publican platform. In a general way, the plat
form has been discussed by a number of the
Presidents advisers.
"The President himself has clearly indicated
inst the issues on which he wants to 60 before
the country, and these declarations of position
are in the possession of the senator from Mas
sachusetts 1t is not probable that there will
be word of protest filed anywhere against TINS
mart of the platform. 1t will so through with
ont the dotting of an IL or the crossing of st.
"The fighting will be over the insertion OF
extraneous matter. The labor people are going
to make an effort to get declaration III favor
of an eight-hour law through the convention
The advance agents of Gompers and Mltcheil
are already on the ground. Such an effort Will
tended to regulate the hours of labor have been
pendine before congress for years. During the
last congress, the first genuine effort was made
through the labor organizations, TO have the
bill enacted into law.
"The employers associations throughout the
country fought the bills so hard and insisted
upon taking up so much time in discussion that
no congressional action was taken. That Is
probably the way it will be this time.
"While possibly not as strong. as organized
labor in the number of votes which it could
poll, the Employers association is factor
which must be dealt with in lie coming CAM
paign, and the Republican leaders do not want
to have any planks which will need different
explanations to different audiences"
The person who sent out that dispatch was a
true prophet. The convention was afraid to
tackle the labor problem-as we knew wouid
he the case. The tariff "refoimers' were COM
pelled to take back seat. Indeed, the Con-
uention concluded to "et we'll enough alone
and really did nothing.
There is little in the platform to distinguish
it from the platforms four and eight years ago
Charles Emory Smith, formerly postmaster
general, declared, in substance, that no plat
form was needed; that Roosevelt is all the
platform the party wants.
Chicago took advantage Of the convention te
fleece the delegates and others in attendance
charging SIS day for "board and lodging.
The work of the convention could have beer
done in one day, but the fxers had promised
Chicago to hold three-days' session, and they
kept the delegates there according to promise.
The white delegates from the South were
tnrned down and the colored delegates seated
which caused no little bad feeling, and TIT
