"Wolcott' Dreary Speech, WitU Wliite
House Marks, anil Hove It Salt
ed' tUe Party ClncUcra.
, PHILADELPHIA, Pa., June 19.-Severfll
Oregoniano called today at the headquar
ters of the -delegation. Captain J. W.
Kern is jubilant about his range-finder,
which has been accepted- by the Navy De
partment. The instrument needs perfect
ing, particularly in the substitution, of
steel for aluminum in -a portion of the
machinery.
Seats in the convention hall "were pro
vided by the delegation to Mr. La France,
the Hood River merchant; T. J. Cleeton
and wife, of Columbia County, and Leo
Friede, the Portland merchant, who has
reached Philadelphia from Mexico on his
tour around the world.
Other callers have been Ed A. Newton,
of Oregon City, and George Nottage, of
feast Portland, -who are 'udjlng medi
cine and dentistry at the University of
Pennsylvania; A. B. Garretson, formerly
of the H. C. Breeden Company: C. C.
Quackenbush, JL ri. Idleman, Louis Bwet
land, and the two McClure boys, from
Eugene.
Another alternate hero is George Hardy,
the Portland tram dispatcher.
George A. Steel has been selected by
the delegation as a member of the Na
tional comcnjlttee for the ensuing four
years. Homer Davenport, the Sllverton
boy, now celebrated for cartoons in the
New York Journal, is doing tho conven
tion and entertaining his father, T. TV.
Davenport. "Unclo Tim" is about the
happiest man in Philadelphia.
Representative Moody gave a dinner at
the Colonnade last evening to Chairman
McCamant, of the Oregon delegation, and
Secretary Heald, of the Delaware delega
tion. The Oregon delegation has Jhe same
place as four years ago, in the front part
of the hall, to the left of. the- chairman,
and immediately behind Dcrpew and Roose
velt. There ii no better location in the
hall.
All that Oregon men could think of
while Wolcott vas peaking -was the fact
that the panic and failures he ascribed to
Cleveland's Administration were due to
the efforts of "Wolcott and other silverltes
and stopped by the very man he was de
nouncing. Wolcott's finest period was
when he said our dead lied burled along
the sands of Luzon, and on that soil no
foreign flag shall ever wave. The only
striking thing in his speech was hla treat
nvent of our anti-everytblngs, happy ref
erence to the Seminoles and characteriza
tion of Osceola as the Agulnaldo of the
Florida accession. Tho rest was a dreary
desert of platitudes, brought over without
much breaking of bulk from the "White
Housa at Washington. And tho melan
choly thing about it was that it seemed
just what the convention wanted. "When
ho made the hollow, theatrical assertion
that "upon this question, as upon every
other, the Republican party is ready to
meet lta enemy In the open," the delegates
stood up and howled as if he had an
nounced a new principle of government.

GERMANY TAKES OUR GOLD
Bankers Require It in Tlieir Senii
Annnul Settlement.
NEW YORK, June 19. Speaking of the
gold exports to Germany, the rperesenta
tlvo of a large banking house with in
fluential connection throughout Germany,
said today that In his opinion the amount
of gold sent to Germany from this coun
try within the past few weelts is much
larger than is generally known. Much
of this gold was shipped privately to meet
the demands of the German bankers who
have to make their semi-annual state
ments July 1, and are anxious to make
aa good a showing as possible. Not only
ha.e the German bankers been paying
a liberal rate of interest according to
the banker, but they have been paying
interest "en transit" and in all probabil
ity made other concessions, besides.
"The simple facts are these." continued
the banker. "Germany needs gokl and we
are the only people who can supply her
needs. She must perforce meet our terras,
and that Is what she appears to be do
ing. I do not believe that nruch of tho
gold recently exported to Germany will
stay there very long-; In fact, no longer
than it will take the bankers there to ad
just accounts for the semi-annual exam
ination by the- department officer."
Gold Gotnir to Pari.
NEW YORK, June 19. Indications point
to the shipment of at least $1,000,000 gold
to Paris on the French liner leaving this
port Thursday. Lazard Freres admitted
having engaged that amount and likely
as not they may Increase their order.
Two -other banking houses and banks are
spoken of as probable shrppcra. President
Snyder, of tho Western National hank,
said his bank might ship some gold
abroad this week. Whether this ship
ment would go to Paris or London, if at
all, Mr. Snyder would not say.

The Iueea That Will Face tUe lle
- jHblican Party irr the Cost
ing Campaign.
PHILADELPHIA, June 19. The follow
ing Js the speech delivered by Temporary
Chairman, Wolcott to the National con
vention "today:
Since the first party convention In these
United States there was never one gath
ered together under such hopeful and
ansplclqus circumstances as those which
surround us today. United, proud of. the
achievements jot the past four years,, our
country prosperous and nappy, with noth
ing to regret and naught to make us
ashamed, with a record spotless and clean,
the Republican party stands facing the
dawn, confident that the ticket it shall
present will command public approval, and
that In the declaration of its principles
ana its purposes. It will voice the asplra
tlons and hopes of the vast majority of
American freemen.
We need "no omen but our country's
cause"; yet there is significance In the
fact that the convention is assembled in
this historic and beautiful city, where we
first assumed territorial responsibilities.
when our fathers, a century and a quar
ter ago, promulgated the Immortal Decla
ration of Independence.
The spirit of Justice and liberty that
animated them found vdlce three-quarters
of a century later in this same City of
Brotherly Love, when Fremont led the for
lorn hope of united patriots who laid here
the foundations of our party and put hu
man freedom as its comer-stone. It com
pelled our ears to listen to the cry of
suffering across the shallow waters of the
Gulf two years ago. While we observe the
law of nations and maintain that neu
trality which we owe to a great and friend
ly government, the Bame1" spirit lives today
in the genuine feeling of sympathy we
cherish for the brave men now fighting
for their homes In the veldts of South
Africa. It prompts us in our determina
tion to give to the dusky races of the
Philippines the blessings of good govern
ment and republican Institutions, and finds
voice In our Indignant protest against the
violent suppression of the rights of tfie
colored man in tho South.
Had there been -no war with Spain this
Rcjmblic, inclined by principle and- ln
ctinct and tradition to peaceful ways,
would have continued the development
of our National resources and character
within. ,hs existing borders, cntent in
the future, as throughout the century Just
ending, with that path of National duty.
We are not a warlike or a quarrelsome
people. We have never coveted tfie posses
sions of other principalities, and land lust
Is unknown among us. We would light
to the death to protect that which is
rightfully ours, to avenge a wrong sought
to be perpetrated upon us, and' to "guard
this hemisphere from any attempt by
foreign powers to further extend their
rule over its soil.
This has been our creed, and we "have
looked forward with hope and with confi
dence to the time when those United
States, lying between the two nceans,
should lead among the nations of tne earth
not by right of the sword, but because
the character and high intelligence of
our people, and the marvelous resources
of our country, would enable us in the
peaceful rivalry of commerce, to dominate
eventually tho markets of the worlds. To
that end we had, for more than 100 years,
held ourselves aloof from foreign compli
cations, and sought to make ourselves
strong from within, with no thought of
colonial conquest.
We haven't been there long, bul; long
enough to reach two conclusions: One, Is,
that the first thing we intend .doing Is to
suppress the Tagal Insurrection and to, es
tablish law And order throughout the
archipelago. That to the -first thing wo
shall do. And the last, tha very last
thlng'we Intend doing. Is to consider, even
for a moment, tho question of giving up
or of abandoning these Islands.
We are actually owners of the Philip
pines by an uhdlsputed and Indubitable
title. We are there as tho necessary and
logical outcome of our victory over Spain.
There are upwards of 1000 Islands
sprinkled upon that Southern sea, peo
pled by more than 80 tribes of differing
race and language, and having absolutely
nothing in common with each other. Most
of these tribes welcome our coming and
are grateful for our protection. The
Tagal tribe, hostile not only to us, but
to most of the native tribes, are In in
surrection against our authority. They
Jtave neither a government nor the ca
pacity to conduct one, and are wagjng a
predatory guerrilla warfare which would
bo turned against tbn other native tribes
If we let them alone.
What would the Democracy have us
do? Give them up to rapine and blood
shed, and leave the islands as flotsam
and Jetsam on the face of tho waters?
There are parallels in our own history.
"We purchased Florida from Spain in 1S21,
when it had 4000 white settlers, for $5,000,-
000 and other valuable considerations.
Tho Seminoles, natives cf the soil, brave,
resolute, having far greater Intelligence
and character than the Ttrgals, disputed
our possession. We sent Andrew Jack
son down to flght them, and It took us
a. years to subdue them and send what
was left of them west of the Mississippi.
If tho "anil-everythings" had lived then,
they would. I suppose, have urged us to
turn over Florida to Osceola, the Aguln
aldo of tho Seminoles. Would you, after
tho war with Mexico and tho Gadsden
purchase, havo given the great area
south and west of the Arkansas to the
red'Apache? Not so did our fathers con
strue their duty, and as they built, so
shall we, their sons.
The Insurrection against our leeitlmate
authority, which, for the time, impedes
our efforts to establish a government for
the Filipinos, Involves us in a sacrifice
of lives and of treasure. Tho obstacles we
encounter in the Island of Luzon are
many, but the chief inspiration and en
couragement of the Tag3l Insurrection
come from the Democratic headquarters
In the United States. Partisanship has
proved stronger than patriotism, even
while our soldiers are being murdered by
marauding bandits, and if It were not
for the hope held out to Agulnaldo by
American sympathizers, the insurrection
In the Philippines Would long ago have
ended.
We stand at the dawn of the new cen
tury. Before it shall have reached its
meridian the youngest here will have
passed beyond this life or bejond the
sphere of usefulness. New recruits will
step Into tho ranks as we fall out. This
very year thousands cf young men will
for the first time exercise- the right of cit
izenship and cast their ballots at
the National election. The safely
of this Republic must ever rest m "the
courage of young hearts and the vigor
of a noble manhood." Youth Is buoyant
and hopeful. No snarling criticism, or
gospel of a little America, or prophecy of
despair, will firld response from hearts
that beat full and strong with courage
and with fahh, and who creed, it Is
that
Gol's In His heaven, v
All's rtsht with the world.
Whatever else in the post has suffered
change or decay, the Republican party,
which for 40 years has been Identified with
everything ennobling and uplifting in our
history, was never as vitnl. n.c firtin mui
as vigorous as today. And the heritage
we snaii transmit to The new century, to
the coming generation and to their chil
dren, and to their children's children,
shall be a record clean and untarnished, an
unquenchable faith in free institutions, an
unalterable. "Sellef In the patriotism of the
people, and an unaylng love of liberty and
of country. "

WHY S.OLDJERS CARRY STICKS
An Eng-liah Soldier Is iXercr
Seen
Without a Cnnc.
Pearson's Weekly.
When Cronje surrendered and b!s sword
was taken from him. according to the
custom of war, he made up for the ma
terial loss of the weapon by sporting a
thick chib stick of large dimers ons.
This idea ho got frcsn our officers at the
front, who, wherr In undress uniform,
usually carry small, smart-looklntr canes,
but as he was a General, while the oill--cers
he saw carrying canes were those
mostly of subordinate rank, he came to
the conclusion that an officer of his rank
should have something bigger and more
tangible than a mere delicate stick, hence
his appearance, one day with a hugeciub
In hand, a large, unwleldyj heavy-looking
stick, as strong- a9 the leg- of -a dining
table..
The British soldier carries a stick as a'
set-off- against slouching, as" many civil
ians do who carry nothing In their hards.
Privates generally carry light canes, non
comm3sc4oned officers fairly stout sticks
ar.d officers go In for the more expensive
and showy kind but all soldiers of the
Queen carry sticks.
It is a question that has' often been
asked In,dacrack3 who first suggested it
Nobody knows. From time immemorial
drill sergeants have carried sticks, and
drum majors, too, and' possibly the prac
tice first emanated from that fact.
Soldiers nearly always have to buy the
canes, or "swaggers," as they are called.
Some regiments provide -sticks for the
men. but if you lose the first you then
have to buy ithe second and suJbequent
ones.
It Is In the regulation to carry canes,
and when a scCdlor goes out that Is, In
walking out order the guard at the bar
rack gates wou'd challenge him if he
didn't have a stick.
A soldier one day couldn't find bis cane,
arid kndwlng that he would be challenged
f he Hdnt have something In his hand,
he passed tihrough tho gates all right
with a poker In his fist.
' Some Teglroenfcs the rifles, for instance
have canes with" the badge of the regi
ment stamped on the head.
Otur Mineral Product.
Harper's Weekly.
Recent reports show, for Instance, that
In 1891 the United States passed Great
Britain In the production of pig Iron, and
stnee that time has led the world in that
industry. Until 1899 Great Britain was the
first country In the production of coal.
During that. ear the United States also
passed her in this .product. Congress did
'not provide for a mineral exhibit at the
Paris fair, but the division of mineral re
sources prepared an educational exhibit,
which is striking in the position It gives
the" United States as by. far the greatest
mineral-producer of the world. Charts
were prepared by Edward W. Parker, tlie
statistician of the division, which illus
trate this point in a most Interesting man
ner. When any new mineral localities are
discovered, or new applications of known
substances are reported, the locality or
the substance- Is carefully studied and re
ported upon by some expert for the bene
fit" of those Interested. The mineral
wealth of the 'new possessions of the
United States. has already been madovthe
