Catarrh Cannot be Cured.

With LOCAL APPLICATIONS, as they
cannot reach the seat of the disease.
Catarrh is a blood or constitutional
disease, and In order to cure 1t you
must take internal remedies. Halls
Catarrh Cure is taken internally, and
acts directly on the blood and mucous
surfaces. Halls Catarrh Cure is not
a Quack medicine. 1t was prescribed
by one of the best physicians in this
country for years and is regular pre-
scriptlon. 1t is composed of the best
tonics known, combined with the

combination of the two ingredients
is what produces such wonderful re-
suits in curing Catarrh. Send for

The New York Times says:

The New York Times says:
Nothing, not even the in
diligence by the whites of the
South of the inbred race pre-
judice against the negroes, has
done so much to retard the
progress of the race toward
self-support and independence
as the use the Republicans
have made of them for politi-
cal ends.
No truer words were ever spoken
as regards the modern political sit
uation and the attitude of Republic
an leaders towards the negro. Ever
since the PRONUNCIATION of the decree
of the emancipation proclamation he
has been the political slave of the
Republican party. From one kind of
slavery he entered into another little
less worse, so far as independence and
material advancement are concerned,
than the condition which he left.
However, political conditions are
changing, If he would but note them.
Never before has he had a chance to
assert his political independence to
so good an advantage as at present.
1t is up to the negro to do something
for himself regardless of political af-
filiation.

The marriage license law in Illinois
has brought out incidents unusual, ono
Of which was the marriage of two pau
pers, who had not money enough for
the license. The Chicago Journal says:
The prospective bridegroom ex.
planned that they did not have money
enough to pay for one. but he wanted
to get married because that was the
day set before he lost his job. Then
the sympathetic policemen went into
their pockets and contributed $40, the
marriage was performed and the cou-
pie went away rejoicing. The police
men and the judge who performed
the ceremony should all be fined for
lack of common sense. Marriage
presupposes ability to support the
family, and any couple that does not
possess that ability and has not even
money enough to pay 50 for license
should be prevented from instead of
encouraged into matrimony. The man
who cannot pull his own weight has
no right to take passenger into his
boat.

Senator Lodge was escorted to the
platform and began his speech to the
convention.
Mr.. Lodge, trim, and business-like,
looked as from a later generation than
the white-haired retiring chairman.
His voice, too, had that resonant New
England twang which made 1t ring
cut to the further corners of the gal
leries.
"The fervid fancy of an uneasy
dream" was his indictment hurled
against the visionary policies OF oppo-
sition parties.
The applause had hardly died away
when Mr.. Lodge launched his sentence
which electrified the assemblage into
it's first real demonstration of wild
enthusiasm.
"The president" exclaimed Mr..
Lodge, "is the best abused and most
popular man in the United States to-
day"
This was the long-awaited signal.
Instantly shout broke from the gal
leries, and was echoed back from the
floor, at first only tempest of de-
OF Teddy" but gradually gathering
kOiIc anu tOium0 0htAl ~ 0WChCu "
whirlwind of sound and motion, as
masse, mounting chairs, waving ban
ners, hats. handkerchiefs, flags, news
papers-anythin which could be seiz-
ed upon to aid turbulence to the scene.
Amid the tumult the band struck
up, but the clash Of brass and drums
was completely lost in the babble OF
sound which welled up from $4,000
throats.
For the first minute Senator Lodge
stood waiting to proceed, occasionally
raising his hand for silence, only to
awaken q defiant yell, twice louder
than before.
A full three-quarters of an hour had
passed In this bewildering confusion
OF sight and sounds. For time fear
was felt by some that a stampede was
imminent. But the political generals
were glad to give the pent-np enthu-
siasm of the multitude this outlet of
expression, and at no time was there
the slightest apprehension among
them that the well-devised plans
would miscarry by some over-power-
ing movement. Frank H. Hitchcock,
the Taft manager. moved about the
door. smiling as the tumult was at its
height
"The cheers for Roosevelt today will
be for Taft tomorrow" said he with
confidence.
With the subsiding of the Roosevelt
storm, Senator Lodge completed his
stirring speech, and then the convep-
tion turned to the reports OF the other
committees. That on rules and order
of business brought a majority report
against the resolution offered by
James Francis Burke of Pennsylvania
reducing the representation of states
to basis of the republican votes cast
by those states. Mr.. Burke presented
a minority report, in which seventeen
OF the states concurred.
A sharp contest occurred on this
question, bringing for the first time
before the convention some of its best
known orators, including Burke of
Pennsylvania, Governor Wilson OF
Kentucky, Kiefer of Ohio, Ex-Governor
Herrick of Ohio, Remmel of Arkansas,
Buckingham of Illinois, Wadsworth Of
New York, Mudd of Maryland, ex-Gov-
ernor Yarmouth of Louisiana. and the
negro from Georgia, Henry Johnson.

THE REPUBLICAN PLATFORM.
Has Flank on Every Subject Of National
Importance.

1mROTt8mCo.
The new platform of the republican
party was adopted by the convention
Thursday. The platforms first new
paragraphs deal with the history and
achievements of the republican party,
saying it has reached the highest ad-
vancement under the leadership of
Roosevelt.
1t refers to the opportunity for all
people under our government and
speaks of the revival of business and
commends congress for the recent lag
islation.
Under pledges for the future, the
following planks are gsyen:
Tariff bureaus for revision by spe-
cial session following the Inaugural
ton OF the president.
Favors fixing the maximum and
minimum rates to be administered by
the president under limitations.
Currency-Approves the Vreeland
bill as an emergency measure and de-
clares for a new system for affording
more elasticity.
Postal Savings-Favors the estab-
lishment of postal savings banks.
Trusts-Amendmen to the Sher-
man law giving the federal govern
ment greater supervision.
Secure greater publicity in manage
ment of corporations.
Railroads.&c. employees
pledge to the laws fts sthe safety OF
employees.
Wage Earners-Effort to tighten
their burden by increased opportunity
for labor where possible.
The republican party will at all
times uphold the authority and in
tegrity OF the courts, state and fed
eral, and will ever insist that their
powers to enforce their process and
to protect life, liberty and property
shall be preserved inviolate. We be-
lieve, however, the rules of procedure
in the federal courts, with respect to
issuance of the writ of injunction,
should be more accurately defined by
statute and that no injunction or tenn
porary restraining order should be Is
sued without notice except irreparable
injury would result from delay, In
which case a speedy hearing thereaf-
ter should be granted"
Rural Delivery-Favors the extern
sion Of free rural delivery Of mails.
Rights OF the Negro-Condemn all
devices that have for their real aim
the disfranchisement OF negroes.
Natural Resources-Indorse the
movement inaugurated by the admin
i,tration for conservation Of natural
resources.
Army and Navy-Preparedness for
war, insuring peace.
Protection Americans Abroad-Com
mend the administration for the effort
to protect American citizens abroad.
Extension OF Foreign Commerce
Steps for increasing merchant marine.
Veterans-Increased pensions for
veterans of all wars.
Other plapks favor the establish.
ment OF . bureau Of mines and min
fng, greater efficiency In health agen-
.cies.
1t is recommended that the hun.
dredth anniversary OF Lincodu's birth,
February IL, 1909, be observed as
patriotic holiday.
The platform ends with reference
to the difference between republican
and democratic principles OF govern.
