Govsrnnicnt anil tb CUtaea.
To what extent the government touch
es the private life of a citizen of the
United States is shown in a very strik
ing way by Professor Eugene Wani
baugh of the Harvard Law school in an
article in The Atlautio Monthly. From
the time that a man rises, all through
his business and social activity of the
day until he goes to bed again, the gov
ernment touches him at every step, pro
viding for him, regulating him, telling
him what he may and what he may not
do, until there seems hardly the neces
sity to discuss increasing the scope of
government, so rapidly is it becoming
wider and wider under the natural tend
ency of the times.
George Eliot,
Mncb surprise has been expressed at
the keen sense for business shown in
the letters of George Eliot quoted in
Airs. Olipbant's book about tbe Black
woods. But it turns oat that the letters
were really dictated by George Henry
Lewes, who was an able business man
and looked after her affairs so closely
that, in spite of the comparatively
small bulk of ber work, she left a large
fortune behind ber, all of it earned by
her pen during a career of 21 years.
The Aristocracy of Wealth.
"Mamma, tbe De Smiths are saying

ur. &mtre, or folk county, than gave
hit reason! for walking out with the other
five delegates from his county. Ilaiatd:
"W came to this convention muter In
struotiont from the Populist of Polk County
atrainst fusion. It It understood by the
Middle Of-The-Road I'opullsta In Polk
County that If this Convention decided to
fuse with tbe Democrats their delegation
would not cooperate with It. If the Demo
cratic Party is good enough to fuse with, it
Is good enough to Join, I have done vio
lence to my conscience for the last time.
This union of foroea it simply a three
beaded bog. On the right is the Populist
bog, on tht left the 8llvr-Republican hog,
and in the middle it tht Demooratlo bog.
"I am torry to leave you. You have
made a hiistake in joining your enemies.
A Democrat la no more to be trusted than a
rattlesnake. He it tht tame old tiger. A
Democrat it like some old hen a good set-

Platform and Addrvaa.
The Oinaba and St. Loult platforms or
tbe populist party were Indorsed in entirety.
In addition there wis a platform embody
ing provisions pertaining to state work. It
was:
"We demand that all ttat ouicert receive
the salary named in tht Constitution, and
no more.
"We demand the abolition of tbe Bute
Printert t office, and tht letting out by con
tract the public printing, the method now
to satisfactorily in operation in most of tbe
state.
"We demand the abolition ol the office of
Attorney-General.
"Tbe State Railroad Commission, as
packed by the legislature in tbe interest of
Railroad corporations, being a menace to
what remedial legislation may come through
said legislature, wt demand the prompt
passage of a maximum freight and passen
ger law.
"We demand tbe abolition of all use
less commissions, offices, sinecures and jobs
of all descriptions, and the curtailing of leg
islative clerk hire to the actual needs or the
letfinlfttlve SMirinna. and a p.tmral mttlnff
down of eiuenaea and retrenchment In .11 !
our public Institutions; believing that , j
tax money collected from the people by pro
cess or law, being arbitrary and not volun
tary, it should be expended with the most
rigid economy.
"We demand an amendment to the state
constitution, providing for direct legislation
and the Imperative mandate in the obliga
tory form.
"We demand that tht state publish all
school books, and sell the same to tbe clll
tens at actual cost."
The Committee on Platform waa L. M.
Robinson, T. VN. Embree.and three asso
ciate delegates. Tbey prepared tbe address
to the voters of the People' Party, which
is as follows:
"To tht People's Voters of the State of
Oregon:
"We, tbe people's party, in convention
assembled, issue this, in open address, and
ask that every true and loyal Populist give

Nation during the past year, havt employed
the methods ol politicians of the two old
parties, and In elubt and primaries and
conventions, with Democrat, Oliver Kepub-
cant and oftlce-teekert, have resorted to
arbitrary, coercive and restrictive means to
suppress a fair expression of opinion by
loyal and true Populist voter opposed to

"Whereas, The ofnoe-holdars, candidates
and men seeking nomination Mnt to the
Convention were eaoh and all in favor of
fusion or union, out of aelnsh mollvtt, and
for the purpose of seeking nomination
through fusion with the Democrat and

"Whereat, Altar organisation of said Con

to Democrats and Silver Republicans; and
"Whereas, Thereafter, the said committee

"We charge that said platform adopted
by taid Fusion Convention, claiming the
name of the f roplea Party and It organise'

In tbe administration of state aftalrs, and
for proof of thl charge we cite tht fact tbal
a resolution, pledging the nominee of the
fusion ticket, If elected, only to accept con
stitutional salaries, wss overwhelmingly
voted down
"W also charge that a resolution to
maintain tht party autonomy was likewise
voted down.
"And, whereas, By the adoption ol laid
platform it became apparent to all true
Populist that the Convention, a there
constituted, was controlled by men who
were no longer Populists, but were oltlce
hunters and spoilsmen, and was not, there
fore, a Populist convention, but In truth
and in fact a Deniocratlc-Bilver-ltepubllcan
convention, the delegatea there assembled
who were Populist by conviction and prln-
lple Were railing ill their duty

party In longer remaining in said Convei

"The trut Populists In laid Convention
assembled after the adoption of the Demo

connection witb said so-called People's
Party Convention, and adjourned to
another hall, and there organised a People
Pirty Convention.
Renator Thornton Hpaaka.
WisHiituTu", March 24. A tcene dra
matic in tbe Intensity of it interest wa
presented in the Senate fexlay during the
delivery by Thurston, of Nebraska, of a
speech on the Cuban subject Not since the
Inauguration of President McKlnley bav
so many people been on the Senate side of
th Capitol as were there today. The gal
lerle were packed with people, many of
whom bad arrived at the Capitol at early at
9:30, in order lo obtain seat.
Mr. Thurston's dying request to her
husband was tbat he should lose no time,
on account of ber death, to do hi utmost to
save and free Cuba and it people. In ac
cordance witb tbe request, therelore, Thurs
ton sacrificed bis personal feeling and de
liver! hi speech a speech that wa hi
tribute to the memory of hi wife.
Without knowing the motive which arii
mated Tnunton and inspired him to his
best eflorts, bis auditor instinctively
realized and sympathized with hit emotion.
The speech was very generally regarded as a
miilorly one, and even those who could not
agree with hit conclusions conceded the
power of his oration. At he neared the end
of the tpeech, hit voice, which had been
clear and ringing, almost broke. He wa
almost overcome with emotion, but rallied
with an effort, and closed in a manner that
thrilled his auditors.
Staid and digniHed Senators turned sway
and wept, and In the galleries, tears welled
to hundred of eye. It waa a remarkable
tcene, and tbe stillness until the last word
bad been pronounced was aa of death Itself.
At Tburtton sank Into hit teat and buried
his face In bit hands, the galleries were
swept by tuch a tumult of applause tt hat
not in a long time been hetrd In the Senate
Chamber.
Kentucky and Kearsarge Launched.
Newport New, Va March 24 The first
great battleship launched from a private
yard in tbe South kissed tbe wave In
James river at 10:03 o clock today at the
plant of the Newport New Shipbuilding &
Drydock Company, in tbe presence of 18,000
people
At 11:35 the second ship, an exact coun
terpart of the first one, except In name,
followed. Tbey were christened respect
ively the Kearsarge and Kentucky, proud
and historic names that have just repre
sentativet In the splendid fighting ma
chines put afloat today. A saw severed
the pieces that held the Kearsarge in place,
and the splendid bull started on her jour
ney to the water. A she started, Mr.
Winslow broke a bottle of chainpaigne over
her bow, and exclaimed clearly and dis
tinctly: "I christen thee Kearsarge."
As the vessel slid tmoothly into the river,
cbeer after cheer went up from the crowd,
and shrill whistles ol steamers in the harbor
welcomed the new naval champion to ita
natural element.
Tbe cruiser Brooklyn and tbe monitor
Puritan, lying in the stream were the re
presentatives of the navy present.
Tbe christening party then proceeded to
the bow of the Kentucky. This ceremony
was an exact counterpart ol the former,
except that Miss Chrlslfne Bradley broke a
cut-(?lass hottleof water from asprlngon the
old Lincoln farm, she said:
"I christen thee Kentucky.'1
Tben, as tbe vessel started down tbe ways,
several bottles of old liourbon whisky were
burled against her tides by Kentiicklstit
who were opposed to tht water christening.
A bottle ol water from a spring on Jeller
ton Davit' farm in Kentucky wat alto
smashed on the vessel's tides.

Fraaldenl Tired of t'rltUilain,
CiiiCAtio, March 21). A Washington
special to the News say: 1
"There Is only one chance In 100 that
war will be averted." Huch was the re
mark this afternoon of one of the moat
firoininent members of the cabinet, who
ia boen conspicuous a a "xaee mem
ber." Private Secretary Porter said this
afternoon that the president had deter
mined to aottle the issue this week, and
a message is looked for tomorrow.
"Tue President," said Mr. Porter, "la
tired of the criticism ol congress. He
will aak congress to do one ol two tliimr
either take the nueatlon and settle It
in its own way, or leave the executive
free and uulramuieled. The President
feels he cannot be blamed and criticised.
"Congress blames hliu for not acting,
and indulges in war talk when be is do
ing his beat to avoid war. The talk of
congress Interfere with negotiations
looking to peace."
There ia scarcely a doubt that Con
greas. In Its present temper, will declare
war. It is expected that It will see the
President unload upon conurena the en
tire situation, and, without uiaklmt a re
commendation, leave the legislative
branch ol the government to work out
the piobera in its own way.
