Nicholas Longworth and Senator Will
liam Alden Smith Mrs. Longworth.
daughter of the President, occupied q
box at the meeting and evlnced her
keen interest in politics by frequent APP
plause. The presence of Mrs. Long
worth caused the attendance of large
proportion of women.
Declaring that confidence in the bus
mess world could be maintained only
by the election Of a Republican Pres
ident and ma jority in the House Of
Representatives, Mr.. Sherman said that
the paramount issue of this campaign
related to a continuation of Mr.. RooSe-
velts policies.
Mr. Longworth said in part:
1T would seem that with both Ear-
ties pledged to tariff revision the re-
vision would necessarily come in any
event during the next Congress. Let
me suggest to you the thought, how
ever that with the Senate surely Re-
publican, if the next House should be
Democratic how would it be possible to
pass any tariff bill which would have
the concurrence of both the House and
the election of the Democratic House
would mean the postponement Of any
revision of the tariff for at least two
years"
Referring to the free silver issue of
1896. Mr.. Longworth said:
Il do not know whether it is gener-
ally known, but it is a fact neverthe-
less, that it is entirely within the pow
er of the President by executive order
and without legislation of any kind, tC
bring about change. the almost GER
tain result of which would be that sill
Yer would become the actual standard
instead of gold. This is because it is
left entirely within the discretion of
the secretary of the treasury to main
tain the parity under all conditions OF
gold and silver. This has been the law
since 1900. when the gold standard act
was passed"
Mr.. Longworth explained that the at
tention of Congress had been called to
this loophole in the act, but that it had
failed to take action.
Senator Smith devoted his atteation
10 a comparison of the achievements Of
the Republican and Democratic par
ties.

columns of figures always blindfolded.
The most marvellous part was when

self with greater ease or speed thai
when heavily loaded with the large
crowd, which came aboard on the com
plimentary excursion. When the WIND
blew hard upon one side and the crowd
shifted on the upper and lower decks
1t was just the same, proving conclu.
sively that as an excursion boat hand
ling large numbers of persons, we'll W
to her passenger limit, the Islander is
perfectly safe and easy.
All of the machinery as we'll as the
boat itself seems to be as perfectly
adapted for a heavy load as otherwise
for in a heavy day, with fog and sea-
wind and tide. to contend aaginst, there
was an ease to the motions of the boat
which gave the passengers the perfect
assurance that the Islander was able
t. do far more than required. AS for
the pleasure and appreciation of those
who enjoyed the outing much may be
said
The spirit in which the whole affair
was conducted on the part of the man.
agement was one of such wholesome
and abundant hospitality that no per-
son could help having good tir1c. One
can imagine the good housewife solicit
ing the husky swain to enjoy second
piece of pumpkin pie at the fall husk-
ing, but to see the steward Of the Is
lander actually passing a box of fra
grant cigars to all the users of the
weed" Well, enough said. 1t just made
d fellow feel as if he would like to step
back into those good old days Of yore
and try a weed" himself again. Or.
upon the other hand to see the anxious
captain actually trying to remove a
cinder from bOdy's eye. Well now, il
made them all feel right at home with
the impression down deep in their
hearts that all hands were right glaG
that everybody had come.
This was the spirit, the home spirit,
the neignborhood spirit, the spirit OF
good fellowship, kindness, comfort for
all and every attention possible. One
good body thinking the boat was the
regular" went aboard to go to Cedar
Grove to visit sick friend and the
spirit of sociability so captivated he'
that she stayed aboard through tn,
whole trip and was kindly landed at
Cedar Grove on the return home.
How glad the up-river people feel
that they own such q good boat and
that such a spirit on the part Of the
management is manifest. 1t would al
most cause the towns and cities up
river to demand that the name be
changed from that which suggests
down river, the islander" to Our
Beat" which means the boat belonging
to the people.
