The appointment Of the Committee
Of Nine to draft the outlines Of the
platform for the whole credentials
committee to consider met with small
favor, not in the appointment Of the
committee, but the arbitrary manner
in which Chairman Glass ignored the
leading spirits Of that body. The au-
thor of the motion to appoint the
committee was not even recognized in
its appointment, breach Of parlia-
mentary etiquette almost unpreced-
ented. Bryan and Cochran and near
iy all of the leading spirits of the
convention who represented something
definite in program construction, were
ignored. These men sat silent in the
awaiting what the COM
mittee of nine should present to them
for their approval and ratification. 1t
was not until their reort came in
that the real fire works began and
then the whole debate was lost because
Of the cloak of secrecy enforced by
policemen and guards, en-
ployed by the administration. Bourke
Cochran's great plea for Ireland,
which defeated the administrations
platform for Ireland in the commit
zee, was not heard as was Senator
Walsh's amendment to the Peace Lea
rue declaration of the administration.
The mantle Of secrecy was thrown
,ver these and Bryan's defeat of the
,fort to insert a wet plank in the plat
orm was also sealed. All Of these
treat speeches and discussions were
ost and would have remained lost but
or minority reports putting them be-
ore the whole convention when they
we're heard. The administration Jared
-ather badly before the whole resolu-
ion committee. It's League of Ma
ion platform was amended by Sen
tor Wash's amendment and while the
was bitterly fought by the
forces when the Walsh
finally triumphed the
resident and his supporters freely
tated that it was entirely accept
BILE to them. The League plank as
came from the committee of nine
vas a copy Of the Virginia declara-
ion but Senator Wash added to the |
latform that Democracy did not OPP |
ose reservations making clearer or
more specific the obligations Of the
United States to the league associates.
he committee of nine submitted
esolution Of sympathy for Ireland
or the reference of the Irish question
0 the League of Nations which the |
administration plank favored.
The convention settled all of these
latters finally on Friday when Bry-
MS four amendments to the plat
,rm were defeated decisively, includ-
lg his prohibition plank. Bryan was
ccorded the greatest ovation extend

aneous without the band leading. 1t

A Business Card

Business partakes in no small measure Of the
element of romance
Business is just as uncertain as life itself It
must be conducted through stromy seas-through
pancs, wars and adverse business conditions
The business that does not render a service
directly worth while is doomed to fall by the
waywoods
There is something romantic about a business
that has served faithfully for a long period of
years, and which has gathered to itself the con-
fdence and loyalty of hosts Of satisfied custom
ers Such business must be founded upon high
ideals and maintained upon principle of inquest
Toned integrity.
For over 80 years j. H. Stevens & Son has been
meeting the needs of their customers. This con-
tinuty of service is criterion by which can be
Judged the quality of the goods sold and the bust
ness principles we have always adhered to-
