On the tariff question some little
progress may be hoped for, but the
Parker men on the committee were
nearly all in favor OF very conser-
vative tariff plank, and ii sins to
be seen whether Judgs Parker will
carry out the positive and definite
plank which was submitted by the
full committee. This is the situa-
ton.

and deliberate attempt to deceive
the party. The New York platform
was vague and meaningless and pur-
posely 80, becaue the advocates of
Judge Parker we're trying to secure
votes from among the people who
would have opposed his views had
they known them. II he had sent
to the Albany convention the tele-
gram that he sent to the st. Lou is
convention he weuld have had very
few instructed delegates from the
South, and no possible chance for
his nomination. But he and his
managers adroirtly and purposely
concealed his position until the dele
gates had been corraled and the
nomination assured. Then his
friends attempted to secure gold
plank, which was overwhe lminRly
defeated in the committee. After
the party had rejoiced over the har-
mony secured by the omission OF the
question, and after he had secur ed
the nomin alton, he injected his views
| upon the subject at time when he
could not be taken from the ticket
without great decentralization. The
nomination was secured, therefore,
by crooked and indefensible methods
but the Democrat who loy es his
country has to make his decisio ms
upon conditions as he fnds them,
not upon the conditions as he would
like to have Thorn.
After having stated that shall
support the ticket, and after having
given my reason for 30 doing, l
think it due to the Democrats of the
nation to say that while the fight
on economic questions is postponed,
it is not abandoned. As soon as the
election is over shsll, with the help

extent taken the place of muscular
power in the Navy. II Is more difficult
for the men 10 keep physically TT. In
the old days of sailing vessels this was
an easy matter, says Engineering, but
all commanders did not, on the super
session Of these. at once recognize the
necessity Of replacing the sail exer.
ciscs by some other system OF physical
training. Men out of condition IN
warm climates get livery" with the
result that there is back talk 10 the
petty officers one commander that we
have heard Of recognized that cases Of
this kind were largely physical. and
used 90 make the punishment fit the
crime by assuring the culprit that he
did not mean 10 treat the matter as n
service offcnge. as he saw the trouble
arose merely from want Of condition,
and would thcrcupOn order the rccalcl-
trant seaman an additional dose Of
physical exercises. which. while not
nominally punishment, was I'm prac-
