Poughkeepsie. y. Y, June 2S.-Bril-
liant summer weather, with a promise
of favorable water conditions, mark
the day of the annual intercollegiate
regatta on the Hudson.
The Program.
Following is the afternoon program:
3 p. m.-University four-oared, two
miles, between Syracuse. Cornell, Co
lumbia, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.
3:45-Freshmen, lights, two miles,
Pennsylvania, Syracuse, Columbia and
Cornell.
p. m.-Varsity eights, four miles,
Columbia, Syracuse, Wisconsin, George
town, Pennsylvania and Cornell.
Wind Goes Down.
After the steady gale of the last two
days, which had built up great seas
along the usually sheltered regatta
course. making even the sIowest prac-
tice q hazardous undertaking, the
coaches and followers of the sport
looked forward to tOday's conditions
with no little apprehension. While a
good steady breeze is blowing, its di-
rection lies Immediately down the
course with no indication of freshen-
ing.
Conditions the Rest.
With no change of weather the crews
will race under splendid conditions. II
seems safe to predict, however, that
no records will be broken this year for
when the varsity eights get under way
at O'Clock the water will again be
almost slack. Without a strong tide in
it's favor no crew can expect to beat
the mark of 1888 2-5 set by Cornell in
1901.
Positions Fixed.
The crews will be placed in posi-
tions as named in the program, the
Columbia crew having position near
the west shore.
Cornell remains the favorite in the
betting, but there never has been a
more open look TO the race.

Columbus. Ohio, June 2S.-The state
democratic convention convened here
today. NJ. A Dougherty. the temper
airy chairman, in his speech said:
1T has been the historic position of
democracy, the position now firmly
held by it, that more corporate power
created by the state to subserve the
public welfare is always subject to
control by the government, whose
creature it is. And the remedy of
democracy is regulation. not govern
ment ownership.
Can BE DIsIOdged.
Democracy is not ready to concede
that privilege has become so powerful
and so entrenched in the laws and pol
icies of the government that ii cannot
be dislodged. Democracy has not
abandoned the struggle; it still has
faith in the efficacy of popular will to
restore and maintain popular rights"

mittee. which was adopted, says:
We note with satisfaction the de-
termination of the national administra-
tion to purchase supplies for the Pan
anna canal in the markets OF the world,
and not pay tribute to our protected
monopolies. We trust the day may
soon come when the common people
of this country may enjoy the same
privilege and may not be compelled to
pay manufacturers for necessaries of
life a higher price than these same ar
ticles are sold by the same manufac.
turers to foreign purchasers.
Rebates Denounced.
We demand our representatives in
congress to aid in the enactment of
such laws as TO prevent all rebates and
secret contracts by railways, and will
guarantee the same service TO every
citizen. We favor comforting upon the
interstate commerce commission the
power. when IL finds a rate unreason-
able, to fix a reasonable rate"
Would Dust GrnRt.
The democratic party pledges itself
in this state election If possible TO use
its endeavor to destroy the element of
graft and political corruption that has
been nourished and fastened upon the
state by the republican party in the
last few years. We have seen the
blighting effect Of boss rule In one of
our cities and we call upon the voters
irrespective OF party TO unite in pre-
venting its permanent Judgement in
the control of our state.
