cd even more. The old Jewish mer-
chants with his high ethical standards
completely disappeared and his place
was taken by the lowest type of Snug

brought disgrace upon the Jewish name
and honor. Later on. the Germans also
imposed their authority upon the jew

from Berlin ordered that the Zion

Nevertheless. in spite of all ] have
enumerated. the Jews in the Baltic
provinces were still far better off than
any of their brethren in other parts
Of Russia. and while those who We're
previously well off were exposed to
suffering. many of the most poverty
stricken attained uItold riches. and
not a few regretted the departure OF
the Prussians.
With the establishment of the Let

may well be said to enter upon n new
chapter in their history. Jews have
obtained complete national and cul-
tural autonomy and are fully par
ticipating in the work of the new
state while political %roups and par
ties are making their appearance in
the Jewish quarter. OF course. the
new chapter is not without its shaded

G. O. P. Convention Snapshots
HE STORY OF 16 NOMINATIONS
BY A. H. VANDENBERG

Hawley of Connecticut presided per-
manently. General John A. Logan fin
ally presented Grants name to the
convention in a single sentence, and
promptly the convention gave him it's
complete total of 654 votes.
Six roll-calls were necessary, how
ever, to name vice-president Benja-
min f. Wade of Ohio led on the first
four. Schuyler Colfax of Indiana pass
ed him on the fifth-the deflecaon
from Wade being led by delegates
from his own state-and Colfax was
nominated on the sixth.
The platform renewed the Partys
guarantee of equal male suffrage, re-
iterated the pledge to redeem the pub
lie debt, denied the European theor,eA
of indefeasable allegiance under which
no naturalized American citizen could
ever entirely throw off the yokes Of
alien nativity, and bespoke encourage
ment to immigrant.
Grants letter of acceptance com
prised but 211 words, completing the
novel record for brevity which Logan
began when he nominated Grant in 55
words.
Fifth Convention.
The fifth republican national con-
vention, even more than the fourth,
was fore-ordained in its conclusions.
1t assembled in Philadelphia June 5,
1872. Morton McMichael of Philadel-
phia was temporary chairman; Judge
Settle of North Carolina permanent
chairman.
Grant was again unanimously nom
mated on a single ballot amid scenes
of inspiring enthusiasm. The Wee
presidency went to Henry Wilson of
Massachusetts, who defeated Colfax
for denomination on a single ballot.
Colfax had once said he would not
be a candidate This gave Wilson a
long start on the trail of delegates.
Then, too, ColfaX was very unpopular
with the Washington correspondents
of big newspapers and perhaps the
only time of its sort in our political
history-they conspired together to
prevent his denomination. On the first
roll-call Wilson had 364 1-2 votes, Col
fax S21 IL, with S77 necessary to a
choice. Before the announcement,
however, % Virginia delegates swung
to Wilson, and 6 Georgians and 8 West
Virginians followed suit.
The platform did more pointing
with pride" than any of its predeces-
sors; discussed civil reform for this
first time, pledged a protective tariff,
demanded abolition of the postal
franking system, hinted at woman suf-
frage, and besjoke Industrial peace
and justice between Capital and Labor.

THIRD CONVENTION

THIRD CONVENTION
The third Republican National Con-
vention met in the midst of Civil War.
And though acrimony, dissensions
and disappointments threatened Lin
coin from all sides, Destiny had plain
sailing when the clans finally gath
cred at Baltimore on June z, 1864
Prior thereto the famous "Pomeroy
Circular" had unsuccessfully tried tC
rally the party to Chase-declarine
Lincoln much too willing to com
promise with the rebellious South
Later, other insurgents similarly
minded met at Cleveland and, in the
name of Is states, actually nominated
Fremont; who few weeks later with
drew. A. third anti-Lincoln cabal
engineered from New York, sought tt
promote General Grant. But Gran
himself peremptorily refused to coun
tenance such political treason.
So when the official Republican
gathering convened the atmosphere
and the track were clear. Robert ]
breckenridge. 'the Old War Horse Of
Kentucky" was temporary chairman
and Governor Dennison of Ohio was
permanent chairman.
Lincoln was re-nominated on the
first ballot. The result was: Lincoln,
asa; Grant, 22-the latter being the
instructed vote of the Missouri dele
cation. The nomination was prompt
ly made unanimous.
Largely because Lincoln himself
willed otherwise, Vice President HAM
lin was not re-nominated with him.
Instead, the ch@ce, upon a single
ballot, fell upon Andrew Johnson of
Tennessee, who had not then disclosed
any Of the tendencies which later rem
dered him so obnoxious.
The resolutions pledged uncompro-
missing fidelity to the successful prose-
cution of the war, declared for Con-
stitutional ban on slavery, promised
faithful redemption of the public
debt, and reiterated the policies of the
Monroe Doctrine as warning to
Europe not to attempt to take advan-
tage of the United States in her hour
of domestic trouble.

Fourth Convention.
The Fourth republican republican
national onvention-coming on the
heels of Johnsons debacle-found re-
publicanism solidly welded together
by the fires through which it had pass
ed. The delegates assembled at Chica-
go May 26, 1868.
Their mandate was foregone con-
clusion. Indeed, the convention was so
impatient to nominate General Grant
that some of the delegates sought to
precipitate decision before the con-
vention was ready.

rary chairman: General Joseph r.

For no smile showed itself upon his
face. Instead. he met every one
with a frown. And if a booy gave
him a CHEEKY "Good morning, Just

swer with grunt, and pass on.
Naturally. when Timothy Turtle ar
rived anywhere and told people that
he expected to spend a few days
among them they did not feel any
great JOY at the news. On the con-
trary, they were quite likely TO say
to one another, Il hope he won't stop
long" or ''He looks more grumpy
than ever" And some would even
remark that they wished Timothy
Turtle would go home and stay there.
So no one of the Beaver colony was
glad when Timothy appeared in their
pond one day and explained that he
intended to be in the neighborhood at
least a week. In the first place, the
Beavers, as a whole. were busy

agreeable folk for company, And In
the second place, they were spry
workers. and they had little use Ioi
anybody as slow as Timothy Turtle
who never did any work at ALL
1t is no wonder, then that a soon
as the news of Timothy's coming
spread up and down and across the
pond, the busy Beavers stopped theil
work and said things about the crusty
outsider who had forced himself up
on them. And almost everybody weni
to call upon Grandaddy Beaver anc
asked him what he thought ought tC
