Republican National Convention.

The republican national convention
was called to order at Chicago on Tues
day by Chairman Henry c. Payne and
former Secretary of War Elihu E. Root
chosen to preside.
Wednesday. the second day of the con-
vention, was marked by the adoption OF
the platform, which begins by praising
the party's record, especially since 1897,
when complete control of national affairs
was obtained from the democrats. 1t de-
clares for protective tariff as cardinal
policy; makes mild declaration for rec
iprocity; upholds the gold standard; in
dorses the creation of a powerful navy;
commends the policy Of the President in
regard to the Panama canal, and slips
around the trust question by declaring
combinations of capital and labor must
not be permitted to infringe the public
rights. The platform closes with all elab-
crate tribute to President Roosevelt's
administration.
The convention was expected to con-
clude its labors on Thursday by the nom
ination of Theodore Roosevelt, of New
York, for President of the United States
and Charles Fairbanks, of Indiana, for
Vice President.

The Tobacco Trust, which has almost
complete monopoly of the tobacco trade,
has given another turn TO the screw by
which it is throttling competition, serving
notice on jobbers and wholesalers that
they must exclude from their warehouses
every product of independent concerns.
AS sugar coating to this pill, the swal-
lowing of which means complete sur
render of the jobbers and wholesalers to
this artifcially created being which threat
ems their very existence, and the placing
Of themselves wholly within the power
of clique of inscriptions men whom
the law permits to use illegal discrimina-
tions without protest, is the promise of
liberal rebates and preferentials for the
handling of their goods.
1t is such concerns as this arrogant trust
which have sprung up under the policies
of government as pursued in recent years
and are wringing from the people by ex-
tortion on every side their very susten-
ance. 1t is little wonder the people view
with distrust the ambiguous platforms
and promises of the old political parties
and clamor for some definite action
whereby all such gigantic concerns as
this trust and its numerous cousins gen
eral will be restrained by law from their
high handed depredations. But the light
of a better day will never dawn until the
people take matters in their own hands
by Withholding their support from such
parties as give them no relief from pres
ent abuses, and casting their votes for
those who will see their best interests
safe guarded.

ing at Professor Jowett's and toward
dessert took up the parable against
Dives. His voice rose higher and
higher, he spread silence around him,
and he was heard laundering out:
"What I complain of as a clergyman
is that have to do what no layman
has to do. 1 have to beg and beg in
vain. Fashionable ladies' come to my
church glittering with precious gems,
and yet they will not sacrifice one dia-
mond from their grand tiaras in order
to save some erring sister from de-
struction." When he finished the ST.
lence grew sultry. All the hearers
looked gloomily at their plates. Then

though he meant mischief, squeaked
out, what object to as clergyman

w. ]. Bryan in his speech at Cooper
Union, New York, on Monday night,
assailed the candidacy of Judge Parker,
declaring him to be neither the gold nor
the silver candidate, but the radium can
didate, charging that the Parker can
didacy, the Albany convention, the plat
form adopted thereat and the methods of
the Parker managers we're cowardly,
deceptive and fraudulent. He took as
his text two extracts from speech deliv,
cred by David B. Hill in December, 1891.
Mr.. Hill at that time was opposed to the
candidacy of Grover Cleveland, while he
is at present Judge Parker's manager, the
Judge being the favorite of Grover and all
other Wall Streeters. Mr.. Bryan said
II am opposed to Mr.. Parker's nomi-
nation for two general reasons: In the
first place, because I believe that he
would be very weak candidate in the
campaign, and, in the second place, / be-
lieve that if he we're elected President he
would be great disappointment to those
who believe in democratic principles.
when l wanted to denounce this
platform adopted in New York, as did,
looked around for something and found
a denunciation that l thought fitted it.,
and here is the denunciation: 1t is pol
itics for towards and straddlers to advise
and contrive that the Democratic Nation
al Conventions trumpet next year shall
blow some uncertain sound
isn't that an indictment of phrases
that were glittering generalties and that
mean nothing? Who do you suppose
used the language that quote? This is
language used in 1891, and it is part oil
the speech of David B. Hill. He was de-
nouncing Grover Cleveland at that time.
He was candidate for President at that
time.
II might read one other sentence only
I don't like to recall the bygone days
when he was with US on this question: 1t
is politics for babes and sucklings to
preach that the gold and silver question
should be kept out of the Presidential
election
"At that time Mr.. Hill was wanting to
make a fight against Grover Cleveland.
He wanted to put his nomination up
against Grover Cleveland's nomination,
and he was appealing then to the. honest
sentiment of the American democrat, and
then he said that we must come out and
be open and frank and candid, and that
the trumpet of our party should not blow
an uncertain sound.
NY first objection to Mr.. Parker's can.
didacy is that he comes before the coun-
TRY on platform that means nothipg-a
cowardly, straddling platform.
1.-THE second is that it has been de-
lceptive campaign, for while Mr.. Parker
has concealed his views from the masses
of the people, he has given his views to
the men who have given up the means to
push his candidacy.
1.-The third objection that make 10
his candidacy is that il has not only been
a cowardly campaign and deceptive
campaign. but it has been fraudulent
campaign"

Death Scenes In Poetry.

Poets are, If possible, worse offend
ers in the matter Of their death scenes
than are novelists. A man pulls two
dram vial of some poison from his
breast, swallows the contents, proceeds
to make 200 line speech without a
pang or a gasp, staggers gracefully
backward to conveniently placed
seat, drops upon it, clasps the region
of the heart with both hands and dies
after little convulsive movement of
the legs. Heart disease, too, carries
off heroines In a fashion quite I'M
known to doctors, and, although 1t is
of the variety known as "broken
heart" has characteristics which must
not be generally associated with frac-
ture of so important an organ.-Brit-

Triumphs of rlodern Surgery.

Wonderful things are done for the
human body by surgery. Organs are
taken out and polished and put back, or
they may be removed entirely; bones are
spliced; pipes take the place of diseased
sections of veins; antiseptic dressings are
applied to wounds, bruises, burns and
like injuriesIbefore inflammation sets in.
which causes them to heal without ma
turation and in one-third the time re1uir-
ed by the old treatment, Chamberlain's
Pain Balm acts on this same principle. 1t
is an antiseptic and when applied to such
injuries, causes them to heal very quickly.

It Is the One Priceless Jewel In Her
Treasure House.
In natures great treasure house the
seed is the one priceless gem. Com
pared to it the great deposits of coal,
the mines of silver and gold and Of
diamonds and precious stones are as
nothing. Man counts his wealth in
dollars and cents, in mining and rail-
road shares and in houses and lands,
while his primal necessities are limited
10 food and clothing. Without these
all other tokens Of aff1uence are void.
These indeed are the sources Of true
wealth, and the grass of the field sup
plies them all directly or Indirectly.
The cereal grains-wheat, rye, oats,
barley, rice and Indian corn-which
are the seeds of true grasses, are con-
vertible directly into food. The succu-
lent leaves and culm of the wild grass
es furnish sustenance to millions Of
cattle, sheep and goats and are trans
formed by them into flesh, milk, wool
and hides, thus indirectly providing
meat and clothing. They also protect
the soil from flood and drought and
landslide. Sending their fibrous roots
down among the shifting sands Of the
seashore, they bind the unstable par
ticles into mass so dense as to check
the erosion of the waves. Thus grass,
the synonym of frailty, is able to raise
its tiny green scepter against the de-
structive power Of the elements.-Out-

Precedence In England as 1t Struck
an American Girl.
knew q young American girl who,
going to England under the care Of an
ambassadors family and attending her
first large dinner party and looking
about her, selected as the guest in the
room who most interested her one man
of distinguished aspect, whom she re-
solved to watch. When the guests
were ushered into the dining hall &C
cording to the laws Of precedence she
found herself at the very end Of the
brilliant procession as one of two I'M
titled plebeians in the room, assigned
to the escort of the very man who had
interested her and who turned out to
be Samuel Rogers, the poet and patron
Of art and the recognized head of lit
erary society in England. She always
said that she secured two things at
that entertainment-name the most
delightful companion that she ever
had at dinner party and, moreover, a
lesson in the outcome Of mere hered-
itary rank that would last lifetime.
Rogers poems are not now read SO
much as formerly, but at that time the
highest literary honor man could
have was to dine with Rogers. He was
also one Of the richest bankers in Lon
don and was very possibly the only
person in the room who had won for
himself a reputation outside Of his

nobody in that company, and the little
American girl was the nobody.-Thom-
