II is true that at the Chicago conven-
ton there was something lacking of the
old-time partisan fervor It is equally
true that many of the great men who
had made history, some Of It not the
brightest. OF the republican party, had
passed from the stage or were slowly
passing from It. What Is of equal i'm
portance Is that there were men there
to take those places. men who had con-
victions of their own. men who had DEM
onstrated their capacity, men who en-
tered the public service in a spirit OF sac-
rifice rather than spirit Of gain. Time
passes and men pass with It, but new
occasions and new duties bring into tho
front OF the republican party men al
ready trained by experience for the du-
ties, obligations and destinies Of the

Work In all establishments was to be

each side, all disputes pertaining to
wages and working conditions were to
be submitted to board OF arbitration.
and pending an adjustment Of the con-
