Special to the Evening Review.
The Coliseum, Chicago, June 10.
Represented by lls.0 delegates, as
sembled from the various states and
territories, as well as our "colonial
possessions," tile Republican party
of the United Slates met today ul
noon in quadrennial convention for
tiie purpose of nominating candi
dates tor the presidency and vice
prusideucy, and tor forum luting a
set of policies upon which the forth
coming campaign shall be cunducled.
The scene was Chicago's greatest
amphitheatre, where four years ago
1 heudore Roosevelt was matle the
party's choice The seating capac
ity of the building has been in
creased to nearly 1 1,000, thus pro
dding accommodations for li.uuo
mure people than In 1904. At this,
only a fraction of the great con
course of party enthusiasts that has
lieen pouring Into town since Satur
day was able to obtain adtiission.
i'imhik me iisscuiuniig oi dele
gates and spectators, Weldon's
Chicago Concert Hand played clas-
Ical and other kinds of music.
.Shortly before the hour of twelve.
Mrs. Heatrice-Klscher Erlinger sang
Arditi's "Enchantress.", The band
then swung into the Inspiring strains
of "Tannhaueser." Itofore the ap
plause died out. Colonel Harry S.
New, chairman of the Republican
National Committee, stepped to the
front of the platform, rapped vigor
ously on the presiding olllcer's table.
iind called the convention to order.
I'be excited buzzing lapsed Into pro
found silence, when Bishop H. J.
Muldoon began a fervent prayer, in
which he invoked Divine guidance
for the deliberations of the dele
gates. Following the reading of the call
t the National convention by Secre
tary Elmer Dover, United States Mon
itor Julius C. Burrows, of Michigan.
was introduced as temporary chair
man.
One of the "Dig Four" from Mich
igan was upon his feet In an instant
witli a motion, "that the action of
he national committee be ap
proved." The tool ion was put and
agreed to unanimously, amid cheers
and baud-clapping. Senator Bur
rows then delivered the formal open
ing address of the convention, which,
according to tradition, is to be the
key-note of the coming campaign.
As soon as Senator Burrows had
"included his address, lie was pre
iented with the gavel which be Is to
use until lie gives wav to Senator
Lodge, of Massachusetts, wYiose
name will be reported by the com
mittee on permanent organl.atlon
for tbe position of permanent pre
siding otlicer. at a later session of
ihe convention. .
The most Important action of the
iftornoon will be the selertion of the
gpa.Wurious committees. Including those
on temporary organization, rules ami
order of business, credentials and
resolutions. The latter Is most Im
portant, since it. will dralt the
national party platform. The chair
manship will probably go to Senator
Albert .1. Hopkins, of lllnols.
Burton to Name Tnft.
William H. Tint will he the first
man placed in nomination before tbe
national convention. When the roll
call of tile states for no.nlriations be
gins. Alabama will yield i1(.r piaco
to Ohio, and Representative Hurton
will nominate Taft In a speech which
those who know Mr. Burton's ability
expect to tire the convention with en
thusiasm. Th'-n will folft.w the
seconding ep'-echcg of George A.
Knight, Senator Dolliver and other
speakers of except jot,;, 1 mwir and
ability, and a pace will have been set
which other orators will find it hard
to maintain.
It is announced that Representa
tive Burton will consume about
twenty minutes in bis nnniinatltie
speech. Tills Is more time than has
been taken by the orators who have
ueuvereu uomi-i-aing addresses
which have become classics. Col.

Remarks of Burrows.
In his address to the convention
today. Chairman Burrows spoke In
oart as follows
"Four years ago the Republican
liany in national convention submit
ted tbe record nl Its. n,.l, l.vo.,tu i
ihe American people, announced its
policies ror me luiure, and invoking
continuance of public favor, placed
in nomination for the olllce of Pres
ident and Vice-President of the Uni
ted States, Theodore Roosevelt and
manes . Fairbanks, who were
elected and the platform approved by
a iiopuiur voie or 7,623. 45, a record
iinexamnled In lire hist,nv nr ..iim
cal parties since the foundation of
me government, receiving the en
dorsement of 32 states out At the 4.1,
with but i:i in opposition.
"In view of this endorsement. It
becomes pertinent and opportune to
enquire. Wbut has the II,,,,,, I. M,..,,,
I'arly done lu the last four years of
uuternnieniai control In many res
pects the most brilliant In the history
of the party and the country to for
feit public confidence or create dis
trust In its capacity for future ad
ministration? Although some unto
ward and utiforseen conditions have
beset the Republic during the last
four years, yet these have been met
and overcome with alacrity and cour
age, and the country has inarched
steadily onward in itu ..,. .i, ...,
course of Industrial triumphs. Tbe
.i.c ueneuciai legislation of the
Republican Party during the long
veins of Its ascendancy and adminis
tration or national affairs laid the
foundation for the public weal so
securely that no disquieting condi
tion, not even a temporary panic,
which necessarily touches the main
spring of all industrial life, could ar
rest tbe country's resistless advance.

The Monetary System.

FIVE PRINCIPAL PLANKS.
Trusts, Railroad Rates, Injunction,
Tariff nod Currency.
CHICAGO. .Iniio IS Th n,
most Important planks of the Repub
lican pintiorm rormulnted by Presi
dent Roosevelt and Secretary Tift
and drnftcd by Wade H. Ellis, Attorney-General
of Ohio, and now in
the possession of prospective mem
bers of the resolutions committee of
the National convention for consid
eration are here given They are the
planks on trusts, anti-injunction,
railroad rates, tariff revision, and
currency.
The trust plank follows:
The Republican party passed the
Sherman anti-trust bill over lie,,,,,.
orotic opposition and onforced it af
ter democratic ilerollcitlon. It has
been a wholesome Instrument for
good In the hands of a wise nnd fear
less administration But experience
has shown that Its effectiveness can
be strengthened nnd Us rent nhtnnic

time will not Interfere with the exiit
enre of associations among business
men, farmers and wage-earners so
long as their conduct or operations
result In n positive benefit to the
public.
We approve tbe enactment of a

igi.ltist tbe over-Issue of stocks and
bonds by interstate carriers.
More or less serious Inaccuracy
has characterized the reputed textual
piil.lcatlons of the plank relating to
Ihe tariff. The exact text of that
plank, as well as or thu plank con
cerning fin t i -1 ii J ii net I legislation
follows:
The Republican party dednr"s .in
rqulvocally ror a revision of the 'at
iff by n special session of congress
m mediately upon the Inaugural I :m
of the lSext president, and commeiidi
the steps already taken to this end
In work nsslgned to the appropriate
committees of the two houses, which
are now Investigating the operation'
nnd efTect of existing schedules. In
all tariff legislation the true prin
ciple or protection Is best maintain
ed by the Imposition of Buch duties
as will equal the difference between
ihe cost of production nt home and
abroad, together with a reasonable
profit to American Industries, and
the benefits that follow are best se
cured by the establishment of maxi
mum and minimum rntes which shall
be applied automatically to the trade
of other countries In accordance with
their treatment of our trade. The
minimum should represent the nor
mal measure of protection required
for the benefits of our own Indus
tries The aim and purpose of the Re
publican imlleles Is not onlv to pre
serve without excessive duties that
security against foreign competition
to which American manufacturers,
farmers and producers are entitled,
lint also to maintain the high stand
ard of llvlnp of the wagp-earners ot
this country, who are the most direct
beneficiaries of (lie protective sys
tem. Between the United Slates and
the Philippine Islands we favor free
Interchange of products with such

No Action on Streets Until
Next Wednesday
STREET LIGHTS CONTINUE
Ordinance Licensing Lnncb Wagons
Defeated Awning Ordinance

With a full board present, the city
council on Monday night performed
16 minutes work and consumed
about two hours more lime iu ran
dom discussion. No actiou was tuk
en on the momt-ntuus street pavtug
mnttor, but UiIb was principally the
fault .of Engineer Kelsay, who, lu
submitting his plans and specifica
tions, did not segregate the paotlles
so that the council could act on each
street separately, as required by the
charter. Little delay will ensue on
this account, however. The council
adjourned its meeting until next
Wednesday night for the purpose of
taking up the matter, and at that
time Mr. Kelsny will be present to
explain all details not thoroughly un
derstood by tile board.
Tluee new ordinances were Intro
duced. One was killed, another wns
enacted Into a law, while the third
was glvon first and second readings
nnd then laid aalde to be taken up
icr final action at the next regulur
meeting. The last ordinnnco refer
red to provides for the grading and
graveling of West First street, In
Kinney's addition, from Its southern
terminal to 1st Avenue north, and
thence east on said avenue for n dis
tance of 168 feet. This ordinance
will undoubtedly pass when it comets
up for its last reading.
The ordinance that, failed to pass
provided for tho licensing of lunch
wagons on wheels. As submitted by
the city attorney, the ordinance did
not specify the amount of the license,
and Councilman Long moved to lay
It on the tnblo. Councilman Flsbor
objected on tho ground that the city
"needed the money." Long then
withdrew his motion and substituted
another fixing tho llconse fee nt I in,
"Just in order to got tho matter be

"The man who applied for the
lunch wagon license agreed to pay

Tho ordinance wns put to a vote

Cardwell, who cast the only vote In

Pursuant to nn ordinnnco passed
two iiitHii list ago, it was moved to ln
creaso Night Policeman Palm's
monthly salary from $f.u to Jt'iO nnd
.Marshal Norman's salary to $75.
This brought Councilman Fisher to
his feet with u bunch of Jarring crit
icism ngalnst the locul polico force,
whom he alleged, was lacking in dili
gence. He cited In a general way
several alleged cases of disorder
wherein no nrrests had boon mnilo,
and ho declared himself opposed tc
paying police salaries when the of
ficers themselves threw nway so
many opportunities to enrich the city
treasury with tines.

up on 111 in with the statement that
