BY WALTON WILLIAMS.
THOR the first time in forty years
national convention of one OF
| the leading parties is to be held
in Baltimore. In the old days
the Maryland metropolis was the con-
vention city of the country, even more
! 70 than Chicago is now. But with the
| movement Of population westward the
big town at the head Of the Chesa.
peake lost her political primacy.
Almost from the day that the con-
| venton system came into vogue In
American politics Baltimore forged to
the front as the leading national con.
vention town. Perhaps one reason was
that she was situated midway between
the north and the south. Another was
that she was one of the largest cities
In the country. A third was her prox-
unity to the national capital, Balti-
moreans even now speaking of Wash
ington as suburb. A fourth was her
hospitality. She makes every guest feel
that he is one of her 'own folks" and
that she is at his service to entertain
and make him feel at home. No trou-
bic Is too great for her to take In his
behalf. Subtly, but without dattery,
she gives him the delightful impress
sion that he has distinguished place
In her regard. With a fine; old south
ern courtesy about which there Is no
stiffness or Formally and with gra-
ciousness about which there is no pre-
tense, she lends new nearing to the
word "welcome"
President Jackson was nominated in
Baltimore in 1882. as was Van Buren,.
not only for the campaign Of 1886, when
he was elected. but for that of 1910.
when he was defeated by William
Henry Harrison. In 1914 both con-
ventions met in the Maryland me-
tropolis. that OF the Wings naming
Henry Clay and that of the Democrats
choosing James X. Polk. Four years
later the Democrats again assembled
in Baltimore, nominating Lewis Cass.
Split on Slavery.
Both the Whig and Democratic con-
ventions of 1852 were held in Balti-
more, the respective candidates there
chosen being General Winfield Scott
and General Franklin Pierce. In 1850
the Democratic convention met in
Charleston. but split on the slavery
question. and both wings later assem-
bled in Baltimore, placing two tickets
in the field. one headed by Stephen A.
Douglas and the other by John G.
Breckenridge This split marked the
end Of Democratic ascendancy in the
government for a period Of twenty
four years. President Lincoln was re.
nominated in Baltimore in 1864, and in
1872 the Democratic convention in the
same city indorsed Horace Greeley,
who had previously been named by the
Liberal Republicans. That was the
last great national convention held in
Baltimore until this year.
1t would be strange coincidence If
the city that saw the division of the
Democratic party in 1860. a division
that drove it from power practically
for dft5 years, should this year witness
It completely reunited and ready to
return to power for an indefinite period
because Of the division OF the sRepub-
lcans. Yet this very result is among
the possibilities.

Dear Aunt Addy and Cousins: It
has been a few weeks since have

OF the cyclone which swept away
part OF the town of Butler. The cy-
clone was on the east side and l was
On the west. My brother and l
stood in the doorway OF the storm
Louise and saw houses flying in the
air like paper It was a very excit-
ing scene. There, were at least
thirty families rendered homeless in
about five minutes. Our large
school building, which was new
and made Of brick, two stories, and
with eight rooms, was swept TO the
ground. There we're six deaths and
fifteen injured. Butler was one OF
the twenty towns Chat we know of
that was visited By a cyclone in Ok
lahoma Saturday night, April IT. I
went yesterday and saw the wreck
It was very sad to look upon it, [
hope the readers Of this letter will
never see such a sad scene and will
take warning to be prepared for an

them. Two of those who were killed

The Help One Another Club.
The JeMs are growing SO, and
those Of Us who work in The jeH
plant are getting acquainted with
very large number of people.
If you could be with me at my
desk sometimes, and read the letters
I read; if you could know OF some
of the pitjful life stories that come
in, sometimes in letters so badly
blotted with tears as to scarcely be
decipherable; some times in hand
writing that is SO cr2mped and
shaky you feel it was an old, cid
man, or an Old, old woman who had
written.
We have letters from heart-broken
old fathers and mothers, telling US
Of the death Of little ones; Of boys
and girls who have gone astray: of
sCAls in JAIL charged with ~crimes
that the pdrent-neaft Will not be-
lieye them guilty Of. Some tell us
Of the inSratitude Of their relatives
old folks who have spent their
lives and the substance for others,
now neglected by those whom they
have helped.
Boys write US Of hard-hearted
fathers who are not in sympathy
with them in their desire for an
education Wives tell us of. the
emptiness Of their lives because of
the selfshness or the greed Of those
who should make them happy.
And lonely old people who have
NO one TO comfort nor cheer them.
Isn't that enough to make US feel
we can do some good, to some
one?"
My plan is this: let each Of you
who belongs to the club lock about
your own district, report the cases
where . CHEEKY letter or aid is
needed; send in the names Of those
who need and the club will then take
the matter up.
l would rather not have money
handled, but we will report to the
preachers CT to the societies Of the
district, tiose cases calling for mate
rial aid.
But the letters, the cheerful visits
and the general cheering up will be
looked after by the members OF
The Help One Another Club.
Your Club Page is now open for
discussion OF the matter, and by
June first we will decide it.

FOOT MACADAM
ROADWAY ALL RIGHT
Highway Commissioners Of Hancock
County Satisfied With the New
Lakeshore Drive.

During the past week the highway
commissioners of Hancock county in
spected the line OF the lake shore
drive between Hamilton and Nauvoo.
The Hamilton Press has the follow
ing concerning the inspection:
The men seemed to appreciate an
opportunity to inspect the works in
the river, and were more than agree
ably surprised at the extent and ma
ture OF the road building, especially
as to the width of the road and the
permanent character of the fills and
bridges.
The question of the width of the
macadam were discussed at consider
able length, and the majority of the
commissioners expressed the belief
that an eight foot road way of ma
cadam with an eight foot road way of
earth on the same level, would be a
more advantageous road than the
twelve feet Of macadam in the center
of the road, but they realize that the
general public has not had sufficient
experience with the two roads side by
side to appreciate the advantage of
having both a stone and earth road
side by side and on the same grade
1t was suggested that sometime
during next summer celebration
be held In honor of the opening OF
this road, with all the road officials 0,

aral public.
