There have always been two great par

gates to conventions for the purpose of
selecting a candidate and promulgat-

has gone through it's party election
of delegates and selected candidate
and announced a platform. 1t was
one of the quietest and most unani-
nous occasions that the muses. of his
tory have recored. Everything seem
ed to have been fixed beforehand.
There are some conveniences about a
convention of that sort. One of them
is that the temporary chairman knows
six or nine months beforehand that
he is going to be temporary chairman.
He also knows what he is wanted to
say, compared with what he wants to
say. I could appreciate that, | assure

Despite the fact that he had no such
period of preparation, Mr.. Williams
address was a remarkable piece OF
oratory. He proceeded with an analy.
sis of the speeches of the temporary
and permanent chairmen Of the Chi
| cago convention and of the platform
adopted by that body, his incisive
and caustic comments on those utter
ances exciting the enthusiastic ap
plause of the convention, which was
accentuated as he then took up the
history of the Democratic party and its
achievements and predicated upor
these a prophecy of the future great
ness of the party. For two hours Mr.
Williams held his great audience il
the spell of his oratory, which was
broken by perfect thunder of ap
plause as he closed.

MAGAZINE NOTES..
BY HARRY S. MILLER

The July Century is given up large
ly to short stories and contains ten
excellent ones, which furnish quite a
feasts for those who prefer lighter
reading during the. summer months.
The number opens with an article on
"The New West Point a detailed
account of the proposed improve
ments to be made at that famous aca-
denny, and is accompanied by an .ex-
quisite view in colors. The first of
series of timely articles on Russia
by DIR. Andrew D. White, is by far
| the most important article In the
number. There is a brief but valua-
BILE article on "The Magma Charta of
Japan" by one Of its four authors.
Jack London s new serial, "The Sea
Wolff partakes of the dash and ex-
citement of that authors "Call of
the Wild' recently brought out by
the Macmillan Co. ''In the Nature of
a Hero "The Heart-Breakers. -
and "The White Feather are among
the best of the many short stories.
"Hardships Of the Campaign' Is
the title Of an article by John Fox
Jr., in the July Scribner. 1t is a Sc
ries of sketches which reflect some OF
the impressions Mr.. Fox received
while sojourning among the educated
Japanese in the mountains back OF
Yokohama. Thomas Nelson Pages ar
ticle on "The Disfranchisement OF
the Negro adds another word on the
much discussed negro question. There
are two serials and five short stories
Of the latter Clara E. Laughlin s cd
vided,' is perhaps the best.
Like most other proverbs, the ole
adage that "There is nothing new
under the sum- can hardly be said tt
hold good in all cases, as is amply
proven by two or three absolutel,
new fruits, the creation of whicl
forms a most interesting article in thu
July Cosmopolitan. The writer, Mr.
H. ellison Gardner lays special stres:
on the fact that these new fruits an
nounced by the Government are crea
tons and not discoveries; that the.
are new fruits, not new varieties. O.
more literary interest, especially t.
lovers Of Shakespeare, is j. H

valuable article on cotton by William

conspicuous figure in national politics
has long been conceded his wise lead
ership in the lower house having given
him firm place in the hearts of his
fellow-partisans, and the great party's
public attestation Of this feeling today
will be marked as one of the striking
incidents of the convention. The
gavel that was welded by Mr. Will
liams in calling the convention to or
der Is OF historic material. The Erie
(Pa.) delegation had it constructed of
timber Of Commodore Perry's flagship,
Niagara, which took such a prominent
part in the notable battle of Lake Erie.
1t is a handsome article. J. M. Guffey
presented it to the temporary chair
man on behalf Of his delegation.
When Mr.. Williams entered upon
his notable keynote" address the
quiet which succeeded the previous
tumult was impressive. Not one of
the thousands gathered within the
sound Of his voice but was anxious
to hear his every utterance and rarely
in a national convention has any
speaker been given a more attentive
hearing.
Mr.. Williams began his address as
follows: This 10 an appropriate
place and time for q Democratic con-
vention. The place Is ST. Louis, the
chief city Of the most populous state
carved out Of the Louisiana Territory
acquired by the father Of Democracy
The time Is the centennial anniversary
celebration OF the acquisition of that
territory, a vast area OF contiguous
territory whose possession was neces-
sary for self-defense and which was
fitted in climate and soil for home
making by the sons and daughters of
the republic-the anniversary of real
and not pseudo expansion-an expan-
sion of our population, our industrial
life, and our Tree institutions. over un.

dence we recognized by trading with

imposed force of our flag and our mill
tary authority. The Democratic party
afterward guided the country to fur
