party is celebrating its birth as the
strong political power that guides the
ma ion. The gathering in the old hall
at Philadelphia is full of interest to
those who have attended the career
of the party since the banner of Ere
mont and Dayton was flung in the
breezes in defiance of an encroaching
power, stealthily creeping northward
from the unhallowed land of the slave.
In that half century there have
been deadly strife and de.olation and
the horrors of hundreds of battle
fields, and all are a part of the history
of the political organization that is
now celebrating its advent in the
shadow of the old cradle of liberty in
which the child of the republic was
nurtured.
The anniversary comes under the
auspices of long continued peace that
has buried the ashes of burned out
passion and carried the nation beyond
the possibility of its internal disrup-
tion. Sioux Falls Press. q

the candidate for state senator in
that district, man who has held
lucrative Offices by grace of the re-
publican party for years, would open
ly bolt the nominations by the state
convention of the party of which he
claims to be member. In openly
opposing Gamble he is boiling the
ticket as much as if he opposed the
nominee for governor The Herald in
dulges cheap talk when it speaks about
the "late insurgents" bolting the
Legislative ticket. 1t is the duty of
all good republicans to bolt the nom
ination of a man who openly opposes
the action Of the state convention of
his party. The fact is that Goodner
is not republican when he takes a
stand against the action of the re-
publican state convention. If he
wants to fight republican nominees
he should have the decency to get in
to the democratic party where he be
longs it would be hard on the demo
Gratis but it is the only thing for
Goodner to do. The ''late insurgents
were whipped to stand still two
years ago but they did not bolt the
party. They have right to expect
the same thing from Goodner, and
to kick him out Of the party if he
does not support the action of the
state convention.

Temporary triumph of slavery was one
that absorbed the attention OF the
northern states from June to Novem-

thing like it in demonstrative way
Marching professions went from

THREE VICTIMS OF ACCIDENT.
Trunk Lid Closed on Little Girls at
Play.

At the close of a four-hour search Tor her
three Youngest children at kankakee, ILL.,
Mrs Adelord Van Slette found them wed
nesday night dead in a trunk in an upper
chamber All three were little girls, the
Youngest a mere baby. One dead body was
sitting upright; the others lay huddled to-
gether upon a pillow. The lid of the big
trunk was tightly closed upon them 1t is
supposed they had crawled into the trunk
during their play, and that the cover fell
and latched and they were suffocated- The
tray of the trunk had been lifted out and
lay upon bed
The younger children of the family had
been playing out of doors, when the three
youngest-Ida, eight years old; Rosetta, aged
six, and Pearl, aged two-left the others,

bring any response. After supper was over
Mrs Van Slette. according to the story told
later by the family, turned her attention to
the house She had gone through the rooms
a dozen times and thought she had searched
every nook and corner. AT last the mother,
in a sleeping room, where was a large, old
fashioned, rounding-top trunk of the Sara

overlooked before. The tray had been taken
from the trunk and was lying on the bed.
Mrs. Van Slette lifted the lid of the trunk
and saw her two babes lying on a pillow in

LIABILITY OF EMPLOYERS
House Bill Called Up by Senator La
Toilette.

Senator LaFollette yesterday afternoon
called up in the Senate the House employ
ers liability bill, making common carriers
liable for damages, even though caused by
contributory negligence. He criticised Sc
verely the amendment adopted by the Sem
ate committee interstate commerce,
which prohibits railroad employees from re-
covering damages unless by reason of ac-
cidents caused by the negligence of any Of
hcer, agent or employe in authority over the
person injured. Senator LaFollette said
that the amendment rendered the bin worth
less and meaningless. He followed by
Senators Carmaek, Culberson and Money
who Endorsed. Senator LaFollettes state
ment.
During the reading Of the amendments
Senator Foraker said he was surprised to
hear the bill called up in the absence of
Senator McLaurin, who had reported 1t, as
that senator had asked him to take charge
of the measure until he had returned.
The regular order was demanded by SEN
ator Scott, and from this Senator LaFollette
appealed and on a viva voce vote he was
sustained and the bill held before the Sen
ate despite the objection that had been
made
Explanation was made by the Wisconsin
senator that he had inquired and had been
informed that Senator McLaurin had in
tended that the bill be called up in his alb
Sence.
A telegram from w. S. Stone of the Broth
erhood of Engineers, protesting against tho
amendment was read. Senator Patterson
said that the amendment should be voted
down, and Senator Daniel, in more extend
ed remarks, took the same view, at the
conclusion of which the amendment was
voted down
All other committee amendments were
purely verbal and were agreed to- Senator
Daniel then moved to strike out the pro-
viso which authorized the railroad to set
off, against verdict for damages, any sum
it had contributed toward any insurance.
relief benefit or indemnity that may have
been paid by reason of the injury or death
of an employe. This was opposed by Sena-
tor Gallinger, who said the railroads were
doing a great deal for their employees and
that fairness in legislation should be ac-
corded these corporations.
Opposition also was voiced by Senator
Foraker, who moved that the Senate pro-
coed to an executive session. Senator La
Toilette said that he should move to take
up the measure today Immediately after
the morning business. Objection to an ex-
ecutive session made by Senator Nc
Cumber, who demanded TO know the neces-
sity for II at the very outset of considera-
ton of important bills on the calendar. Sem
ator Foraker said 1t would not be in order
for him to explain Upon Senator McCum-
ber's objection roll call was had upon the
motion to go into executive session. The
motion was carried-ayes 3s; noes, 14-and
