DEMOCRATS AND ROOSEVELT.
New York sunJ

There was one happening at the
democratic city convention which was
not on the program outlined by the
leaders. The platform, of course, had
been prepared in advance, and when
the committee on resolutions retired,
according to custom, it was supposed
they were going out for perfunctory
duty. While the committee was away
from the convention a recess OF 10
minutes was taken, but it was nearly
three-quarters of an hour before the
committee returned, and their long
absence led to some speculation.
The explanation came when Senator
Thomas F. Grady. chairman of the
committee, mounted the platform and
stated that he had been asked to read
this resolution, which had been adopt
ed by the committee:
Resolved, That the successful Ia
Dor of President Roosevelt in the in
itiative, conduct and settlement of the
peace negotiations between the govern
ments of Russia and Japan present
such prominently patriotic and hu-
manesservice as to merit grateful rec
ognition for every element Of our cit
izenship, and we, who have been and
are now his determined political op-
ponents, unhesitatingly accord to him
our hearty praise for the surprising
courage, remarkable tact, distinguish
ed ability and commanding influence
displayed by him as the central figure
in the great peace triumph Of the age.
When this resolution was read the
convention for few moments sat in
silence. 1t didn't seem quite to un-
derstand. But as the meaning of it
flashed on the crowd there was an out
burst of cheering which was continued
for two or three minutes. It was
realized that the democrats had taken
the wind out of the sails of the repub-
licans.

ATHENA, OCTOBER II, 1906

The rich have their troubles, never
so many as now. The law somehow
seems to be seeking them out, just to
make them uncomfortable. w. w.
Brown. of Crook county, who jumped
into prominence during the recent
Williamson trial, as the advocate of
the downtrodden rich, said something
more than the truth when he declared: !:
"The government is going after the
rich and letting the poor CO." That
fearless speech brought forth many a
sympathetic throb, in more than one
Portland breast. The rich have been
getting the worst of it. They are to
be held accountable to vulgar laws
just like the every day plebeian. Now
the state has got at it. 1t is going to
look into the tax business. 1t doesn't
exactly propose to inquire "Where did
you get it?" but "How much have
you, and where is it?" If the rich
don't answer truthfully, they are to
be prosecuted like ordinary perjurers.
Good gracious

garden was Of great value for seed
He showed us bed of dahlias-sever-
al hundred plants--for which q
Chicago man had offered him 500
each. He picked up leaf of spineless
cactus as big as his hand and said it
was worth $500 for seed.
About bushel of similar leaves
were lying on the ground. He took
us to bed of ''star flowers s''-some-
thing entirely new-a hybrid which
he has produced from an Australian
plant sent him by friend. It is ever
lasting, pink, crimson and white. and
never loses its color or luster.
He told us that French millinery
company had offered to buy all Of
these flowers that he could raise, de-
string to use them for trimming hats,
but insisted upon having million
blossoms to start with, so as to sup
ply any demand. He said the contract
was worth hundreds of dollars, but he
was compelled to decline it. because
it would keep him from other work
that was of greater Importance. In
stead of accepting the fortune the
Frenchman offered him he gave
them some seed and told them to raise
their own flowers.
Half in complaint, half in congrat-
ulation, he explained that it was i'm
possible to patent a flower or veget-
able or tree or any kind of plant.
He considered this injustice. Authors
can copyright books, manufacturers
can protect their inventions, but bot
anists have no way of securing the re-
suits of their labor and study but
must share them with the world. But
he said he did not care. The fame
and satisfaction he enjoyed were all
he wanted.

I have just described. Unless one
could read the proceedings of the Eng
lish courts in the past two or three
years he could not nave am idea of the
enormous amour of deception which
is practiced in the sale of brandy. The
only guarantee which the consumer has
ut the present time in this country is,
the reputation of the firm which eS-
ports the brandy from France, where
il is principally made, and of the dealer
in this country. Inasmuch as the
great export houses are often them
selves producers, they ma very easily
send a beverage under the name OF
brandy which represents almost every
form of distillation practiced in the
| country. The reports of the municipal
laboratory of Paris also show what an
! enormous extent such authorizations are
practiced. Every time a consumer
drinks a glass of a beverage marked
brandy which is not brandy in the
true sense of the word described above
he is deceived. l should hardly like to
entur a guess at the percentage of
receptions, but / fear If 1t could
readily ascertained is would approach
very nearly three figures"
