gression and at the same time strive
for the effective arbitration of any

In other words, / cordially sympa-
thiZe with your announced purpose to
secure present protection for the ma
ton and at the same time make as
rapid progress as possible toward per-
manent world peace. AS you we'll say,
we should have an unquestionably SUI
perior power in our own possessions
and in the waters adjacent thereto in
the Atlantic and Pacific oceans; and
We should also do everything possible
to secure agreements with all govern
ments to respect each others terri
tory and sovereignty and to arbitrate
all other questions.
l should be delighted to see Senator
McCreary president of the league if
you do not feel you can continue in
that office. Sincerely yours.

lPIanks on Which Independ-
ence Party Will Stand
Outlined.
IHIsGEN FOR PRESIDENT.
MASSACHUSETTS MAN is GAINING
STRENGTH AS PRESIDENTIAL
cANDIDATE-NEAL PRACTICAL
LY OUT OF IT.

/, Chicago, July 27.-The platform of
the Independence party which is to
meet in national convention tonight,
will, II present plans are carried out,
contain a much more radical declara-
ton on the question of injunctions
than was embodied in the platforms of
either the democratic or republican
parties.
From present indications the temper
of the convention will be in favor OF
q declaration doing away entirely with
preliminary injunctions in cases OF Ia
Dor disputes. The majority of the del
egates who have arrived also believe
that there should be no punishment
for contempt of court until after a
trial by jury.
The sentiment of the convention, SO
far as can be forecasted, is somewhat
divided concerning the financial plank
of the platform.
The majority seems to favor a decla-
ration that all money should be issued
directly by the government, without
an intermediary. Others incline to
the view that the money should be Is
sued through national banks.
Another declaration which will like
ly be In the platform will be in favor
of giving to the Insterstate Commerce
Commission the power to initiate
changes in railroad tariffs, and that nc
rates shall be increased without the
permission of the commission.
Want Sherman Act Amended.
An amendment to the Sherman act
will be favored.
A strong and specific declaration
will also be made in favor of the re-
'striction of Asiatic immigration.
II is asserted on all sides that the
contest for the nominations will be
free and open. OF the candidates now
sachusetts has strong following and
he is apparently in the lead.
William Howard of Alabama has
many friends who are making q
strong fight in his interest. The In
diana delegation is pushing Charles
F. s. Neal of that state, although Mr.
Neal himself said Sunday that he
hardly expected his name to go be
fore the convention. Other candi
dates are John Temple Graves OF
Georgia and Howard S. Taylor of Chi
4 cago. The name of Charles A. Walsh
,of Iowa, secretary of the nationa
committee and who for many years
acted in a similar capacity for the
democratic party. is also mentioned.
w. r. Hearst. who is to be temper
AIRY chairman of the convention ha!
arrived and after spending severa
hours In company with friends return
ed to the Auditorium Annex tonigh
to begin work on his speech.
Mr.. Hearst has reiterated the state
ment he had made in New York, tina
he was not a candidate for the pre- 81
Dental nomination and that he woulc
adhere positively to his declaration
that he must not be considered in tina
light.
Walsh to Be Chairman.
At conference held early in tn,
evening it was decided that Charles
A. Walsh should be the permanent
chairman Of the convention.
The national committee met THU
morning at 10 o'clock for the purpos,
of making final preparations for tn,

Good Laees are Always Treasures

Every woman breads sending her
fine laces to the wash, because coarse
yellow soap always spoils them. They
should not be boiled, because the deli
cate linen threads, like all other, veg.
etable fabrics, will boil soft. If you
want your laces to look like new, use
Easy Task soap. You need not boil
them or give them hard rubbing.
