There was great excitement ii the
winter palace this afternoon. The
car was just emerging from his
bombproof conservatory when an
elevator boy cried. Going down. "

What Again." cried his majesty,
tearing his hair and falling in a
swoon.
He thought it was another re-
port from Port Arthur.
There was a wild rumor here
this morning that the war zone had
entirely disappeared during the
night. The police are very active
and all suspicious characters are
being searched for it.
During the forenoon the people
were thrilled by the appearance of
a large and threatening war cloud
which rose in the direction of
Moscow. 1t turned out to be
only Black Michael on horseback,
however, and the fears of the COM
munity were quelled.

strange squadron showed up on the

were sounds of revelry for Nc

the smugglers' quartet sounded
forth upon the breeze:

THE PROMOTERS of the Lewis ana

steps to secure the Liberty Bel as one
of the features of that display 1t is
unnecessary for The Herald to express
the hope that the effort viii be sue

need the Liberty Bell TO remind us that
we are loyal American citizens, it is d
historic old emblem that no one can
view without reverence, without feel
ing greater pride of country, a
stronger desire to be of service to the
country AS an object lesson in patri-
otIsm the Liberty Bell in It's tours
around the country. has served and IS
serving a useful purpose.
We confess that our hope that the
Liberty Bell viii De exhibited in Port
land is not purely unselfsh. If it goes
To Portland there is no reason why it
should not be brought to Salt Lake,
either on the way TO Portland or on
the way back to Philadelphia. The
Liberty Bell would not Doe a. meaning
less rlass of metal to any citizens of
Ttah. The people of Utah are as hon
estIy and sincerely patriotic as people
anywhere. They believe I'm all the bell
stands for and they win pay as sincere
tribute to il as win be paid in any
state
Up TO this time the east and south
have had a monopoly of the Liberty
Bell. And 10y the east and south we
mean the section of the country lying
east OF the Missouri river. The bell has
been taken To- expositions everywhere
except those held iu the west. Now 1T
/ is time for the west to have its opportu-
nifty. The bell does not belong TO the
east and south alone. 1t belongs 10 the
whole country. In the west especially
/ the love OF liberty is strong. Our noun

there is none to dispute The late
Senator Hanna was one OF the most
forceful politicians this country has
ever known. lie saturated with his
strong personality men and conven-
tious and made them do his bidding.
But Senator Hanna at his best never
ruled q convention as absolutely as
Theodore Roosevelt ruled the national
gathering of Republicans that has just
adjourned at Chicago.
The Republican convention at Phil
adeIphia I'm 1900 was considered "a
Hanna convention. but Hanna was
not permitted to nominate a man
OF his choosing for the vice pres
ideucy. He never wanted RO0se-
veIt. and Roosevelt was forced
upon him. HOW vastly different was
the Chicago convention, Roosevelt
ruled there with an iron hand. Down
TO the last little. petty insignificant de-
tail. he dictated everything. There was
never a time that the hand of the
Rough Rider was not felt-and 1t was
encased in no velvet glove.
Roosevelt selected the temporary
chairman; he picked the permanent
chairman he passed on the platform
before it was submitted TO the dele
gates, he named the chairman of the
committee on resolutions, and the
Chairmen of an the other important
committees, he let IL be known that
he would like Senator Fairbanks as a
running mate, and sraightway an the
'favorite sons" took to- the woods.
Roosevelt picked every man who made
q speech in the convention and told
him what to say. AT least he knew

Never was a great party SO ruled by
single Individual i'm the history Of
this country. And the striking fea-
ture of it an is as The Herald has
D0inted out before that majority Of
the delegates to the Chicago conven-
ton were at heart opposed 10 the nom
ination of Roosevelt and bitterly
against his high-handFd methods of
controlling their deliberations. His
domination was made possible, not
through any merit of his own or any
love his fellow party men entertained
for him. but because no organized OPP
position. after the death of Senator
Hanna, was possible,
