WILL WELCOME THE ATHLETES,
President Roosevelt and Others Will Gel.
ebrate Home Coming Of The Vlo-
torIous Americans.

New Ysrk, July %. When Americas
record-breaking athletes again reach
their own shore, two weeks hence, they
will be greeted by a most tremendous
demonstration of appreciation, accord
ing to plans now under way for their
reception. President Roosevelt's cable
gram to Commissioner Sullivan in Lon
don, expressing his desire to shake the
hand of each and every one of the vic.
torious athletes, and Governor Hughes
prompt assurance of cooperation, has
lent the celebration national scope.
With President and Governor present
and acting Mayor MCGOWAN 80 enthusi-
astic that he actually aches to turn the
City Hall over to the victorious outfit,
the project is certain of immense pop
ularity.
Within the next day or two acting
Mayor MCGOWAN expects to announce
committees on reception, banquet, pa.
rade and arrangements. Among the
members Of these committees will be
many of Americas distinguished citi-
zens from all parts of the country.

Chicago, June l6,-Burrows began
10 speak at 1894 and had been
speaking about six minutes when he
mentioned Roosevelts name, He was
evidently a bit excited as he had
some difficulty in pronouncing the
well known name. He suffered and
stopped once or twice but finally the
delegates recognizing what he was
trying to say began demonstra-
ton. North Carolina, Texas and
West Virginia led the cheering while
the applause was general on the floor
and balcony. The cheering lasted
nearly two minutes. Burrows In re-
suming mentioned Fairbanks and
there was a round OF applause. The
name Of Lincoln received a general
but brief hand clapping, Burrows
completed his remarks at 1:42.
When the applause at the conclu-
sion OF Burrows remarks ceased, the
list of temporary officers was read
and adopted. The names OF tho new
national committeeman were an
nounced and at 1908 the convention
adjourned until tomorrow noon.

No Sunday school in Amarillo was

a difference in peoples tastes. There
also seems to be still a tendency
among men to reform Others and
overlook oneself.
Secretary Taft is to be presented

The Platform.
Associated Pres.


Chicago, June 16.-The platform
opens with glowing endorsement Of
the administration OF President
Roosevelt and shows the great de-
velopment OF the country under va
rious Republican administrations
during just forty years and says:
Nothing so clearly demonstrates
the sound basis upon which our COM
mercial, industrial and agricultural
interests are founded and necessity
Of prompting the continued welfare
through the operation OF Republi-
can policies as the recent safe pas
sage OF the American people through
a financial disturbance which If APP
pearing in tho midst OF Democratic
rule or a menace OF 1t, might have
eaualled the financial panics OF the
past We congratulate the people
upon this renewed evidence Of Amer
lean supremacy and hail with conf
dence the signs now manifest Of the
complete restoration OF business pros
perity In all lines OF trade, commerce
and manufacturing"
Continuing It says the people have
felt the wisdom OF entrusting TO the
Republican party the control OF the
national legislation since the election
OF Mckinley in 1896.
Many wise and progressive
measures have been adopted by the
recent session OF congress which
nave demonstrated the patriotic re-
solve of Republican leadership to
keep step in the forward march to-
ward better government. Only the
obstruction and filibustering OF the
Democratic minority OF last congress
prevented the enactment OF num-
Der OF measures OF great public ben
eft, the consideration OF which can
be entrusted only TO another Repub-
lican majority. But many wholesale
and progressive laws were enacted
and we especially commend the
emergency currency bill, the bill ap-
pointing a national monetary COM
mission. employers and government
liability laws; measures for greater
efficiency in the army and navy, the
widows pension bill, model child
labor law for the district OF Column
bia, designed for emulation by other
states: new statutes for the safety
Of railroad engineers and flremen,
and many acts, conserving public
welfare" .,.
The platform declares for a revi-
sion OF the tariff, approves the
emergency measures adopted by the
government during the recent finan-
cial disturbance and especially COM
mends the passage by congress OF
temporary enactment designed to
protect the country from repetition
of such stringency only until there
can be established a permanent cur.
rency system that will avoid emery
encies.
"The present currency laws fully
justified their adoption by expanding
commerce. Marvellous growth in
wealth and population, multiplying
centers OF distribution, increasing
demand for the movement OF crops
in the West and South and entail
ing periodic changes in the monetary
conditions, diclose the need Of more
elastic currency and adaptable sys'
