A SPLENDID FINISH
 OF A SPLENDID CONVENTION.

The Democratic convention last night completed it's labors and adjourn ed sine die. having nominated Henry G. Davis of West Virginia for vice president. The session of yesterday was e1iivened by the receipt of a te:- -egram from Judge Parker, the presi- dential nominee, announcing his sd- herence to the gold standard, and as the platform was silent as to tinan- cial plank, he deemed it best to notify the conrention, that they might have a full knowledge of where he stood in case the National ticket should be sue cessf1l.
 This acton, manly and straightfor- ward, as it was, will only cause greater respect for a man already -e- spected. The masterly handling of the majority in the hands of the most ably equipped debater and leader, John Sharp Williams, fully met the question. when he prepared the replg to Judge Parker, stating that there was no financial issue before the cour- try, nor was the Democratic party deal ing in dead issues. but in the real and live issues of the day. and that as ey, cry person knew that Judge Parker stood for gold standard unequivocaliy, there was nothing in the platform that would prevent him from accepting the nomination already made of his name '' All will agree with Mir Williams, that his reasoning is simple and just The Democratic party has placed now be- fore the people its candidate. its plat form. and in the great speech of MT. Williams all the living issues Of the day. Never has the party placed h-- fore the voters of the country a strong CT ticket than that named at St. Louis. Clean men, men of brains, men of ca pacity, men that invite confidence and respect for their judgment, men desti- ute of the halo of the elanking sword aud the rattling spur. Men who, i elected. will carry out the pledges of the platform of that party. and com parison of its planks with that of the opposition can result in but one decis' ion, and that the support of the Dem ocratic ticket. A vigorous campaign will be conducted with Bryan. and Hearst, and Cleveland, and Olney and German. and Hill, and Murphy and Mcclellan, and all the heretofore divided ranks of the Democracy stand ing shoulder to shoulder-a united party, haTmoniously bent. with tho banner of success as the goal of all Parker and Davis will be elected presi dent and vice president of the Unite' States in November. Mark that pre- dict;on in your memorandum books and see how true it will be.

rights of labor, but in 1896, when At torney General Knox was Andrew Car negie's pr.yate lawyer, and MT. Roose- welt was unthought of for the presi- dency. Judge Parker boldly declared from the bench in New York City that it was immaterial whether a monopoly was reasonable in its conduct or not a much-applauded point in the recent merger decision by the United States Supreme Court.
 There are four things which stand out clearly in Judge Parker's judicial i opinions:
 He believes that monopolies or com binations in restraint of trade, whether reasonable or unreasonable, are op- posed to public policy, but condemns indiscriminate attacks on lawful bus mess organizations
 He believes that workingEen, whether organized or not, have right to work or to refuse work. or to threaten to refuse to work. for any req son which appeals to their self-interest. and that labor union which refuses 10 allow it's members to work with non union men is not a conspiracy in the eyes of the common lew.
 He believes in strict separation of the executive. legislative and judicial departments of the government, and is particularly opposed to encroachments by the courts on the prerogatives of executive officers of the legislature.
 He believes that public franchise es are property which should snare in the burden of taxation
 | The tariff. income tax, monetary and ! territorial expansion questions have not been raised in his court during his l9 years service. on the bench, and, being political questions, he has re trained from discussing them. There. fore. no man can responsibly say what his views are.
 Judge Parker is not garrulous in his official opinions. He has horror Of superlatiyes and heroics. He sticks to the points before him, decides them in temperate language and refrains from sentimental essays or philosophic | preachments. His associates in the Court of Appeals declare that in the i judicial consultation room he is an az gressive fighter and gives full play 70 his moral imagination and free expres- sion to his weil-settled convictions; brt his written opinions are marked by an almost invarisble sense of judicial re- i straint.
 It would be hard to find greater contrast to President Roosevelt than this strong, wise. quiet man, who re- sists the temptation to flourish in he eye of the public and refuses to play politics in office even when an anti monopoly or labor rights decision opens wide way.

HON. f.. s.
Made a Great Speech at the
Court House Last Night.
His Words We're the
Words of Wisdom.
From Saturdays Daily.

From Saturdays Daily.
Those of our citizens who were so
fortunate as to hear the speech of
Hon. F. S. Spruill at the Court House
last night, r congratulatlng them
selves and expressing regrets at the
fact, that it was not heard by every
man, woman and child in the
county.
In every element that goes to
make a great speech it was COM
plete, the distinguished and COM
manding presence of the speaker, his
splendid voice and clear enunciation.
his varied vocabulary and choice of
words, his clear reasoning and fervid
eloquence, combine to make him
one of the first speakers of the State.
The matter of the speech was we'll
worthy of the splendid hammer of
its delivery. He undertook to show
the necessity of every ma support
ing n of the two great parties of
the country; and at its conclusion,
you felt that there was very little
room + necessity in this country for
any other kind of party man than
Republican or Democrat; and, that
il was the duty of every one to be-
long to one or the other of these
parties; and, to vote his convictions,
that to stay-at-hOme was worse than
any Of the other bad forms of politi-
cal action or inactien.
He then proceeded to give three
of the many reasons why he could
not be a Republican. Flrst-the ac-
ton Of the Republican party towards
the PHILIPPINES; second-the action
of the Republican party with refer
ence to the tariff; third-the conduct
of the President with reference to
Booker T. Washington, President
Davis and other. Southern subjects.
It would be futile to attempt to
impart to cold type a faint sugges-
ton of the effect of his great effort.
All that clear reasoning, and an at
tractive presence, a marvellous voice
and intense earnestness could do,
was done, to impress upon his hear
ers the force and Importance OF these
reasons. It was a great speech and
grandly delivered.
We predict that whenever Mr..
Spruill speaks in this section again,
that he will be- greeted ~by~a large
and ~appreciative audience.

CHRISTMAS FAD.
Scheme of Gift LuncheOns Introduced
by n Philadelphia Debutante.

Scheme of Gift LuncheOns Introduced
by Philadelphia Debutante.
Christmas gift luncheons are likely
to be given to large extent during
the next few weeks by society girls
who have adopted the new idea-or,
rather, a return to the old-of making
with their own hands the souvenirs
they present to their dear 500 friends,
says writer in the New York Press.
A Philadelphia debutante, Miss Rita
Heberton, recently originated the gift
luncheon, when she invited to the
handsome home Of the Craig Heber-
tons. in Walnut street. dozen other
inventive young women for an affair
Of that sort. Each guest was asked
to contribute ten suggestions for
Christmas novelties suitable for home
manufacture.
The lists were numbered and read
aloud without anything being said to
betray their authorship. A bonbon
ballot was cast for the string of sug-
gestions best combining originality
with practlcability, and dainty prize
was given to the winner. Miss Heber-
ton, as hostess, became the possessor Of
the hints, so she found herself with
five score excellent ideas for holiday
presents in addition to her own Need
less to say, each Of the twelve friends
will receive from the clever Quaker
City belle at least one of the gifts for
which she indicated preference in her
little list.

dreamily watched big bee darting in

The door OF this pantry opened on the

to be presented to her future brother
in-law in spite Of the fact that Mara
bel looked disapprovingly at the calico
dress and straw decorated hair.
This is Miss Elinor Lee Bumstead,"
announced Uncle George. while Petit
kins shook hands with the burglar.
II have heard that Pettikins is a
unique character, and I can vouch for
her prompt action in emergency" said
the burglar. In a moment Pettikins'
small feet had flown to the kitchen,
where Mary Doolin was taking a pan
of biscuits from the oven.
"Mary Doolin, Mary Doolin! What's

Apropos of the North sea incident a

panics caused the United States block
aiding ships off Cuba ''to fire at each

terrible fate of the Maine was not
speedily forgotten by those who were
facing similar danger.
