UNCLE HENRY BICNELL has not

minutes. 1t VIII be remembered that
the ovation for Roosevelt lasted "A

when the Independence party nom
mates Hearst or a Hearst fellow for
the presidency the ovation is sure to

These ovations do not mean anything.
There is no psychological reason for
their continuing SO long. They are

Roosevelt. Eugene v Debs, Taft or
Hearst. 1t acts like a match in a
powder magazine.
There is a fash Of real applause.
There are a few moments of real en-
thusiasm and then it develops upon
the ovation manufacturers to do the
rest. A picture OF the candidate is
paraded through the delegates. There
is a renewed applause.
The daughter of the candidate is
given bunch Of roses. The applause
Is vOciferous. II dies down and band
