what the DOG Dreamed.

Representative Clayton, of Alabama,

dog was twitching and starting as
dogs sometimes do in their sleep. The

INSTRUCTED ron PARKER.

The Democratic convention Of New
York yesterday instructed the delega-
ton from that state to the National
Convention to present Judge Parker
for the nomination for President and
to support him. Its action was not a
surprise It was clearly understood
several days ago that the convention
would be Overwhelmingly in favor of
the nomination of Judge Parker.
The Democrats Of ether states who
have been waiting TO see what the
Democrats of New York would do have
now no reason to hesitate as to the
course they should pursue in regard
to the nomination for President if they
desire that the next President be
Democrat. They know the Democratic
party cannot win the election unless
it carries New York, and they have
plenty of reasons for believing that
Judge Parker can carry that state.
There is but little. if anything, on
which to base the belief that any other
Democrat, who stands a chance of get
ting the nomination, could carry it.
The thing for the Democrats Of other
states TO do, therefore. is to ratify the
action of New York, so that when
the National Convention meets there
will be a unanimty of sentiment in
favor of making Judge Parker the
party's standard-bearer. ~
Evidently a good deal of care was given
to the framing of the platform. 1t is
a safe statement that it has the APP
proval of Judge Parker. There is moth
ing in it to which either wing Of the
party can reasonably object. No doubt
there are something's which Mr.. Bryan
and his friends would like to have
in it, but they should not overlook
the fact that it would be impossible
to have a united party If they should
have their way in making the plat
form. Both wings of the party must
make concessions If there is to be har-
mony.
The platform throughout is very
conservative. 1t condemns the one
man power in the government, de-
mands obedience to and enforcement
VI Aue idNSt ldNOtS d iCdoOlldDlC re-
duction of the tariff and impartial
treatment of labor and capital. utters
d warning against Capitalization and
extravaganza and calls for the puri-
fication of the departments of the gov
crnment and the enforcement of the
laws against trusts.
1t is a platform on which all Demo-
Gratis can stand, and it doubtless con-
tains the issues on which Judge Par
ker would like to have the campaign
conducted. New York Democrats
done their best. They have named
the candidate whom they think
can carry their state. Let the
Democrats of the other states see to
it that this candidate is the party's
nominee for President.

sufficient revenue 10 meet its obliga-
tions. There are of course other rea-
sons offered, but it is doubtful il any
one of them has as much weight as
the foregoing one.
And that one ought in the very near
future, to nave much less weight than
heretofore when this question has been
under consideration. The state is in
creas!ng in wealth all the time, and.
consequently, there ought to be an in
crease in revenue. There has been a
great increase in revenue, but new OBJ
legations have been assumed. For in
stance, the pension charge has been
increasing steadily ever since the PEN
sion system was adopted 1t ought
very soon to begin to decrease. AS
that charge gets lighter and the reve-
nue. increases the state Will be able to
do several things which the people
would like to have done.
One point that Prof. johnson makes
is worth careful consideration, and
that is that the colleges stand poor
chance of getting help from outside
sources, from persons who would add
to their endowment funds, as long as
the state taxes their endowments.
Even philanthrophists don't like to
have the income from their gifts go to
the state.
Georgia's colleges are poor and have
a hard time to keep going, as it were.
If they were able to appear little
more prosperous their chances of being
remembered by rich men who lend a
helping hand to colleges would be in
creased, as the tendency is to give to
those that are prosperous rather than
to those that are struggling.
We doubt if the people would COM
plain if the Legislature were to give
them a chance to express their views
as to the advisabiity of further tax
ing college endowments. The Senate
in 1902 acted favorably on the bill pro-
vlding for an amendment to the con-
stitution giving the Legislature au-
thority to say whether college endow-
ments should be taxed or not. and the
matter is now pending in the House
Committee on Constitutional Amend
ments.

On the Loss of the Royal Geor.s
Toll for the brave!
Inc brave that are no morel
All sunk beneath the wave.
Fast by their native shorel
Eight hundred of the brave
whose courage we'll was tried.
Had made the vessel heel.
And laid her on her side.
A land breeze shook the shrouds.
And she was overset:
Down went the Royal George
With all her crew complete.
Toll for the brave!
Brave Kempenfelt is gone:
His last sea-fight is fought.
His work of glory done.
1t was not in the battle:
NO tempest gave the shock:
She sprang no fatal leak;
She ran upon no rock.
His sword was in the sheath:
His fingers held the pen,
When Kempenfelt went down
With twice four hundred men.
Weigh the vessel up,
once dreaded by our foes,
And mingle with our cup
The tears that England owes.
Her timbers yet are sound.
And she may float again
Full charged with England's thunder
And plough the distant main.
But Kempenfelt is gone,
His victories are Ger;
And he and his eight hundred
Must plough the wave no more.

A few days ago Herr Bebel inter-
pellated the German government. in
the Reichstag. with respect to the re-
port that the steamship Fuerst Bis
marck had been sold to the Russian
government. Nothing conclusive was
developed at that time Now, how
ever, according to the dispatches of
yesterday, the Russian admiralty ad-
mits that it has bought not only one,
but four German steamships, which it
intends to have converted into cruis-
ers, and that it has hopes of buying
four similar vessels from the United
States. This will, of course, cause to
be raised the question of whether or
not such ships are eontraband of war,
and whether the sale of them during
hostilities to a belligerent is not
breach of neutrality. The duty of neu-
trails to prevent the departure of arm
ed ships and armed bodies OF men from
their territory TO fight against one of
two belligerent nations is, of course,
firmly established; but in the cases in
point the ships were not armed when
they LETT German possession and Ger
man waters. StiIl. the Fuerst Bis
marck was designed to be an auxiliary
cruiser of the German navy, and it
may be safely assumed that the other
ships We're similarly designed, with
gun bases provided for in their struc-
ture. 1t remained, therefore, only for
the Russians to mount guns on these
bases, to make the Ships effective as
converted cruisers. The conversion of
the ships from merchantmen into fight
ing vessels might be effected as soon
as the three-mile limit at sea was
passed. Considerably more will doubt
less be heard of the matter.

There seems to be no longer reason
for doubling that Verestchagin, the cell
ebrated Russian painter, was lost with
the Petropavlovsk. He was an old man.
already famous. But his devotion to
his art, or rather his lurid school of
the art of painting, induced him to
brave extraordinary dangers for the
sake of at least one more great pic
ture. The world will regret his TAX
ing-off. 1t was said of him that he
desired to picture war in it's terrible
aspect so truly that men would tIrn
from it in horror and disgust. To that
end his battle fields are usually shock
ing in what they portray, though there
seems to have been some departure in
the case of his picture of the charge of
San Juan hill. Possibly he could not
find enough in that charge to produce
shock, even with the bit of eAag-
geration that undoubtedly crept into
the canvas.

CONSUL MORGAN ON RUS
SIAN GOVERNMENT.

Washington, Feb. 29.-The orders of
Edwin V. Morgan, appointed and con-
firmed as American consul to Dalny,
to proceed TO that port have been sus-
pended. Mr.. Morgan will not proceed
until he has received further orders
from the department.
There is 70 present intentions OF
trying to force Mr.. Morgan upon the
Russian government.
The state department recognizes the
right of any government to withhold
an eXequator, by warrant of which
the consul is authorized to exercise his
functions, and if another government
does not feel that a consul located in
one of it's ports facilitates commerce
there is no disposition to make an
issue on that point. Mr. Morgan re-
mains at his New York home.
No change has been made in the
orders to Messrs. Cheshire and David
son, who have been named as consuls
to Mulden and Antung, respectively,
