Furakawa contemplated the kake-

"As you command, Kayama," he
said slowly. when will yor return to

lordly arrogance and mercy he might
honor the village by STOPPING to pick
the beauty of this flower which had
een-created for him alone. She, most
beautiful, would drag the hem of her
kimono for him through the streets.
Wells knew that this was allegori
cal; he was not intended to pluck this
fiower-not at this festival-it was all
emblematic of the devotion due him.
This Ellen could not know. The words
were so simple, the meaning behind
them so unmistakable. that she under

 ''It has been the history of this re- publican party in over 70 years, that the men nominated for this office and elected to it have seemed to mirac- ulously fit the day and hour of their service.
 Parties represent certain ideas of policy and government and these principles come to their highest ful- fillment in the leadership of men We cannot always see the forge upon which these minds and lives are be- ing fashioned and it may have been many years and incidents that led up to the making of Mckinley. Never theiess no one can recall the time and the financial uncertainty, the indus trial stagnation; then came the Me- Kinley tariff and the expansion of commerce. It was his vision in con gross that produced the tariff to our American industries, gave to our workingmen his full dinner pail; stim- ulated genius and the invention of machinery to an unprecedented de-

 President Mckinley could not long tolerate inhumanity in little and help less Cuba.
 The very first expression of world democracy was intervention for hu- manity's sake; that was a new in- depreciation of American freedom.

 Reciprocity, 1t has had number of other names that would try to do the same thing. but the best pos sible solution of all international question, the one. that will give an equitable exchange of idea or com merce. Let this be the feeling be- tween nations of the world and we will have no need of untried super governments to control by what may prove to be unpopular fiat.
 Let our country go on matching Mckinley in spirit and character. and let the party continue its past history producing men for the day back with pride to the past and if the next convention of the republican party which convenes for the presi- dential nomination, it will find that a splendid son of old New England can walk worthily in the footsteps of his noble predecessors"
 Graham Defends q. 0. P. Policies.
 Representative Graham said in part:
 William Mckinley came into the presidency at a time when strange doctrines were abroad in the land," he said. ''The blighting curse of free trade had fallen on the people. Misery stalked in the land and the democratic party contended that the mere fiat of the government could end our troubles. Mckinley led the people out of the desert of distress and wilderness of false doctrines, in- dustries lived again and hope and faith rose in mems breasts.
 T need not dwell upon the condi- ton of the country from the .time of President Mcliiney's election till the time when the republican party, hopelessy divided on issues of men, not principles, permitted the entrance of the democratic party into control of the nation. With the coming of that administration men saw history itself.
 We arc now approaching a presi- dental election. We, who profess the republican belief. insist that we should continue in charge Of affairs. l Our democratic opponents insist they should be chosen for this service. l The best way know of to measure 1 this is by what each party has done ! in solving the many difficult questions arising from the war"
 Mir Graham, continuing said: Fin ' ally, my friends. We have gone to | work and have protected our people while they work. Look about you |
