turage aud the introduction Of
fences the necessity for guardians
OF our grazing lands is fast disap-
pearing, and the erstwhile iantas-
tic figure Of the cowboy immortal
lied in art aud literature must go
forever.
Those pioneers who have lived
in the West for many years have
vivid recollections Of the cowboy
in his pristine glory. He was a
picturesque parsonage, a terror Of
the frontier and at the same time
a paragon u bravery and gallan-
try. Humanity has never had a
more striking or higher exponent
OF knight errantry than is repre-
sented in those men who rode the
ranges and guarded the herds. In
the storm which invited stampede;
in the silent night beneath The
stars, and during the burning heat
of day, the men who sat in their
saddles for many hours and faith
fully kept their lonely vigil we're
heroes who may we'll be immOrta-
lized in verse and story.
The great West, especially that.
portion which is given Over to the
cattle raising industry, owes its
development largely to the COW
boy. AS a spectacular and at the
same time faithful and necessary
adjunct of livestock production,
this type OF man stands out in
scenic interest. One cannot con-
template the old.time cattle bust
ness without including in the
retro, pection the "cOw puncher, y
now fast disappearing. The civil
izing tendencies Of tranquility and
progress have rung down the cvr-
tain upon the dauntless men who
for half a century earned suste-
nance upon the range and lived
under the patronage of the ranch
men. The man Of the chaps and
the quirt is no longer the king Of
4, the prairie. All tribute to bis
personal trustwOrthiness and bis
indomitable courage. The wreck
of storm, the fever of heat and the
! romantic associations Of his EN-
! ployment have cast the cowboy il
heroic mold.
! With the disappearance Of the
7 primitive conditions Of the newer
West goes the picturesque figure
I Of the cowboy. Fearless, gener'
GUS, and almost always admirable,
: the cowboy must take bis place Il
the silent procession Of the pass
Z ing and his occupation must YIELD

in a small clump of bushes box con-
tanning two odd shoes Knowing that
burglars had entered shoe store not
long ago and taken two odd shoes,
they went to Mr. McGowan's store ana
showed them to him. Mr. MCGOWAN
easily identified them as those which
were stolen. This discovery reveals
the fact that the burglars did not find
out what they had taken until they
had gone some distance from the
store. On finding that the shoes
were not mates, the conclusion drawn
is that they threw them away, box
and all.

SENATOR ALDRICH's REMARKS.

Chairman Ballou then introduced as the
next speaker Senator Nelson w. Aldrtch.
referring 10 Tristan Burgess and other
famous Rhode Island orators. He was
called a master Of political economy; a
man whose services can never be repaid.
Senator Aldrich said In part that the
Republican party Of Rhode Island was
never In better condition than II 10 today
and that this convention will GO down be-
fore the people with ticket worthy OF
the support OF all.
The Republicans OF Rhode Island will
stand shoulder TO shoulder with the Re-
publicans OF Connecticut for the support
OF Theodore Roosevelt.
The senator realized that this means
hard work but there was not the slightest
doubt in his mind OF the result.
Senator Aldrich referred 10 the manner
In which the reference to him was made
by the senator from Connecticut, which
he said had touched him greatly. and
closed by expressing his afrection for Sem
ator Plat.
Three hearty cheers and a tiger were
given with a will for Senator Aldrich at
the call OF Col Ballou,

Judge Parker the very highest meed OF
praise as an exemplary husband. father
and citizen. He has won the confidence
Of the public as an upright Judge and Is
In every way a worthy member OF society.
II he combines all these qualities. IL
may be asked why should he not be
qualified to occupy the exalted office OF

own confession, a man OF moral courage.
He failed. having permitted his name 10

his attitude In vital questions.
Theodore Roosevelt Is type; he Is the
product of the times and partakes OF the

President Roosevelt Is the educated man

in touch with all sorts and conditions OF
men and becoming n student OF men and
their affairs. He has Injured himself 20

DEPENDENT ON INDUSTRIES.

Rhode Island is more dependent upon
her manufacturing industries than any
other state In the union, for the obvious
reason that these are her only Jewels.
her smallness In area forbids her efforts
To much increase her agricultural re-
sources Her farmers cannot RAISE
enough TO feed her population and under
any conceivable improvements in agri-
cultural production, tho land will never
produce enough TO feed the people OF the
state. The people OF this state have ac-
complished marvellous results In the In
dustrial field during the past 100 years.
The showing OF the Industries OF the
State ~ a magnificent one
Having only an area of a little more
than one thousand square miles. our
State contains a population OF upwards
OF 10000, which gives her the largest
population 10 the square mile In the
Union. She has a larger population than
fourteen other states OF the Union. She
has upwards OF sls4. 1000 invested In
her industries, greater sum than
thirty-one of the other states. She pro-
duces manufactured products amounting
In value to upwards OF sls3000,0Oo, an
excess over the amount produced by
about thirty-four states.
Rhode Island has built UP these great
Industries through her courage, her great
perseverance and industry under very
many great difficulties and discourage
ments Her people have stood stead
fastly for sound and sane economic laws;
under their helpfulness they have been
able to accomplish the results which
they now enjoy.
