ton and in every walk of life want
for this high Office.
First of all, the powerful Christian
and moral sentiment of the nation de-
mands his nomination, and every
Christian and moral agency will be
exercised for his election. The labor
ing interest demands him. The farm
er, as with happy heart he gathers in
his bounteous harvest, stands ready
to do battle for his return. The
miner, who in contentment digs away
in the bowels of the earth, sees in
him his salvation from oppression and
encroachment. The business man, the
capitalist to whom this administration
has brought abundant success, eager
ly awaits his nomination. So surely
as he is nominated by this convention
today, so surely will he be elected by
the people in November.
With his nomination and election,
what an inspiring prospect opens up
before the party and the nation. With
it will come new efforts to promote
greater prosperity and a larger meas
ure of happiness to all who dwell
within our borders. With it will come
that calm and peaceful assurance that
while prosperous, happy and content
ed at home, a wise, safe and szillfuI
diplomacy guards and protects our
every interest throughout the civilized
world And, finally, with it will come
an advanced step towards the full
fillment of the great mission of the
Republican party. And that mission
will not be performed until every sec
ton of our constitution, and every
amendment thereof, shall be respect
ed and made effective, and until every
citizen Of every section, of every race
and of every religion shall proclaim
in one grand chorus of that constitu-
ton. Thou art my shield and buck
ler.''
God grant that in our party's strug-
gle to reach that time it may ever
have man to place before the Amer

kept constantly in touch with the pres
ident and mis- work
Sitting tilted back in a big arm chair
at his desk the president chatted freely
were his personal friends, and the
president realized perfectly that the
little condolences of the executive ses-
sion" as he himself termed it, would
be held as inviolable. He talked and
acted, not as president of the United
States, not as the standard bearer of
great political party, but as Theodore
Roosevelt, the man and friend. With
genial raillery he chatted with one; ex-
changed comments on men or Things
with another; laughed heartily at
cartoon of himself to which attention
was drawn; sketched in a free hand
way incidents of the convention; re-
called some interesting situations, per-
sOnal and political and, in conclusion,
again thanked his friends for express
ing their congratulations.
Aside from Secretary Loeb, Assist
ant Secretary of State Francis Il.
LOOMS was the first official of the adj
ministration to extend his congratula-
tions. Later in the day, however, other
officials called at the White House to
felicitate him upon his nomination.
During the late afternoon and early
evening kilograms from all parts of the
country poured into the White House
offices, by the score, each bearing its
words of cheer and good wishes.
As soon as the president received
news of the nomination OF FAIRBANKS
as candidate for vice president he sent
to him a telegram of congratulatiOn and
shortly afterWard received an answer
expressing appreciation of the distinc-
ton conferred by the nomination
Among the kilograms received was one
from a. few of his Long Island neigh
bors, as follows:

Washington, Dec. 6-After listening to the reading of the presidents annu- al message to congress the house ad- journed until tomorrow. During the first ten minutes of the session two miner routine matters were disposed of, but no other business was tran sacted.
 The senate was in session for more than two hours today and in addition to listening to the reading of the presidents message they received the preliminary report from the Merchant marine commission and witnessed the introduction of Senators Krox and Crane into office, and in executive session referred the presidential nom- nations 60 the proper committees. The session was characterized by an extension of yesterdays greetings among the senators. The reading of the commissions of the two new sena- tors attracted more attention than us- ual in such cases on account of their prominence and the senators generally did not fail to note the peculiar word ing of Gov. Pennypacker's communica- tion, wherein he conferred the office of senator upon Mir.

T. c. Hill was in town yesterday from his mining camp about six miles west of Prescott. MT. Hill has charge of the Ideal Mining company's prop erty in that vicinity adjoining the Derby Mining company's property. In doing the assessment work he struck a twelve inch streak of ore which he thought looked pretty good and might run $50 per ton. He broughtsa sample of it to Prescott and had it assayed and greatly to his surprise received returns of S420 per ton. He had two or three samples assayed and none of them came under S400. He left a piece at the Bashford- BurmisteG com pany which he thinks will go at least 5000 per ton in gold.
