tAtDS ORGANIZATION

Especial to The Richmond VirginianD
CHICAGO, June lS.-Senator Root
made a plea for harmony in his
speech as temporary chairman. In
his address he praised Mckinley,
Roosevelt and Taft, and appealed to
the party loyalty OF Republicans, even
Ii disappointed in the choice OF the
convention, to support its candidate.
Senator Root declared the party
was determined to preserve its organ
ixation and traditions. He said that
the Republican party was never In a
more commanding position to ask the
votes Of the people. because IL had
faithfully served them for fifty years,
and peculiarly stood for the consu-
sg.si,s.sa4 SO saasss o. government @{ssak
had stood against detractors who had
said that tho people were not fit to
govern themselves.
The senator overlooked the Roose-
welt attack on himself, and paid tri-
butte 10 the services rendered the
public by Colonel Roosevelt In awak-
ening the public conscience and in
auguraring many reforms. He also
gave generous credit TO Roosevelt for
his efforts 10 improve the great IN
dustrial system Of the country4--
The Tariff Question.
THE Republican party stands now
he said, las Mckinley stood, for n
protective tariff, while the Demo
cratic PARTY stands against the prin-
ciple of protection and for tariff
for revenue only
He added that tho party stood for
the uses of the tariff. and not for it's
abuses The abuses incident to the
old method OF tariff making he pro-
posed remedying by advanced meth
ods OF commission inquiry concerning
Industrial facts upon which the pro-
posed tariff is TO be based. This Is

certain of the valuable city lots to pro,

nation proceedings the McChesney
block, near the Brewer wharf, and por-
tions of the Allen & Robinson lumber

The Governor states that the one diff

of lots, is whether the entire property
should be acquired, or just enough

these are needed for government pnr-

Commissioner Wakefield gave an in

that the late S. G. Allen, was once call
