CHICAGO. June 22. (Staff Correspond
ence.) If the Hon or yesterday's session
of the Republican National Convention
was ex-Secretary Root, the Hon of today
was Speaker Cannon. One appropriately

best-loved Republican here, but It seems
toNme that he Is gaining In picturesque
ness, and in that affection -which right
fully accrues to the true humorist at the
expense of his dignity. The power he
toilsomely -won through honest services
in the House Is something imperiled by
the jocose character he Is giving himself.
Those who fancied that, if Cannon had
enjoyed his present popularity two years
ago, he might have combined the discon
tent -with Roosevelt and secured the Presi
dential nomination were probably mis
taken. From such material we do not
choose our Presidents. Lincoln himself
was saved from the impuatlon of buffoon
cry only by an overshadowing solemnity
and the heroic endurance of tragic trial.
Better Than Revisionists Expected.
The platform has little Interest outside
of the tariff plank, which seems to me
more favorable to the revisionists than
we had been led to expect. The reference
to cost of production here and abroad Is,
of course, the veriest folderol, but this
tariff plank is ample authority for such
reformation of the Dlngley schedule as
may be determined on this Winter or
next. "We shall hardly find the American
Tariff League crowing over a victory.
Harriman Back of Fairbanks.
The complete acceptance of Fairbanks
Is not the perfunctory, or negligible,
event it might appear on the surface. It
has been brought about principally by
the great financial interests, and largely
through E. H. Harriman. The real mean
ing of bis selection is the desire of Wall
street for a "safe" man in case anything
Bhould happen to Roosevelt, and I have
little doubt that Fairbanks has made his
acceptance the consideration for certain
promises for 1908. He has always been a
satisfactory man to the "business inter
ests," yet perhaps the only flat-footed
stand he ever took on anything was his
declaration for the gold standard. On
this he displayed commendable fidelity
and seal. His followers are already toast
ing him as "the President of IPCS," and
there Is nothing left for us but the ex
pectation of seeing him devote the com
ing four years assiduously to the acquisi
tion of votes at the next National Con
vention. It was early Tuesday evening that Mr.
Harriman Informed Chairman Ayer. of
the Oregon delegation, that the Fairbanks
nomination had been all arranged, and
from a conversation I had with him, a
little later I judge that he Is Inclined to
take some credit to himself with becom
ing modesty for the arrangement. He
expressed his gratification at the result.
and Inquired, how It would suit the people
of Oregon. The reply he got was reassur
lng, and he seemed much pleased at the
confirmation he received of his already
formed favorable view of the crop and
business outlook In the Pacific North
west. Mr. Harriman Is soon going abroad
for the Summer, and In the Fall will be
In Portland again.
Oregon Delegation Calls on Him.
At 5 o'clock this evening Chairman
Ayer rounded up the Oregon delegation
and marched them to - the Auditorium,
where, by previous appointment, we met
the delegations from California, Nevada
and Alaska. The combined procession
then proceeded to the Auditorium Annex
and paid its respects to Senator Fair
banks at the Indiana headquarters. As
the VIce-Presldent-to-be Is a past master
In gracious manners and the arts of pop
ularlty, the occasion was mutually agree
able. An address was made by J. TV
McKlnley, of Los Angeles, and a brief
response by the Senator. Each visitor
received a tactful word as he passed and
shook hands, and a message of remem
brance was given to at least one well-
known Oregonian for wnom jut. jsaxn-
banks professed great friendship and
esteem.
Th'ough I say It, as I shouldn't, the Ore
con delecatlon stacked up very favorably.
In comparison with any other we encoun
tered.
Mr. and Mrs. Frank C. Miller are here
today; she on the return from a Euro
pean trip, and he on business. I think he
asked every member of the Oregon crowd
to visit them at Kansas City on the way

HITT WITHDRAWS FROM RACE
If Colorado Names No Man for Vice
President, Other States Will Not.
CHICAGO, June 22. Entries in the Vlce
Prpsidentlal race are being scratched with
great rapidity since the withdrawal of
Representative Hltt, which was announced
todav. Colorado. Nebraska, "Wisconsin
and Missouri have also practically decided
not to place their favorite sons In nomina
tion. Positive announcements to that ef
fect, however, have not been made.
The course pursued when the rolls of the
states is being called for nominations will
govern. The Missouri delegation tonight
seems least inclined to abandon their in
tention to place Mr. Walbrldge in nomina
tion. A meeting of the delegation was
called for the purpose of caucusing on the
question. It was postoned until tomorrow
morning, and the opinion expressed that
no other nomination than Senator Fair
banks will be made.
The "Wisconsin delegation has come to
a conclusion without a meeting regarding
presenting the name of Governor Scofield.
However. If Colorado should go the pace
Ty making It a free-for-all event, each
state will bring forth Its aspirants wnn
out hesitation.
COMMENT ON PLATFORM.
Times Regards It as Bold, Clear and
Consistent.
LONDON, June 23. The Times, the only
London morning paper which prlnt3 an
editorial on the platform adopted by the
Republican National Convention at Chi
cago, says the platform bears the stamp
of the Individuality or resiaem .noose

"Adroit it unquestionably Is," says the
Times, "but, save In the few points where

CHICAGO, June 22. Visitors were not so
early about the Coliseum today, but when
Mr. Root called the Renublican National
Convention to order, shortly after noon,
the great hall presented a more Inspiring
appearance than on the preceding day.
The galleries were for the first time
crowded, and a large number of women
present was especially noticeable.
Among the first of the prominent men
to enter the hall were Senators Piatt and
Depew. They were welcomed heartily.
Senator Depew's happy speech of the day
before being fresh in the minds of all.
The Alaskan delegation, with their
eagles surmounted on totem poles, was the
second attraction. The greatest demon
stration as the delegations were entering
the hall was that which greeted Senator
Fairbanks, who had become known as the
National choice for the second place on
the ticket. It exceeded in enthusiasm the
ovation of the first day.
"While delegations Interchanged ideas on
the floor, or sought their seats, the con
vention was called to order abruptly by
the temporary chairman, Mr. Hoot. "When
the delegates delayed obedience to the
call Mr. Root without hesitancy peremp
torily ordered the sergeant-at-arms to
clear the aisles. The firmness he displayed
appealed to the delegates, and from con
fusion the convention quickly changed to a
well-ordered and perfectly-controlled body.
After prayer by Rev. Thomas E.. Cox, the
business of the day began.
Senator. McComas, of Maryland,, chair
man of the credentials committee, at once
presented a report on the famous "Wis
consin, contest. Ho took the delegates
Into the confidence of the committee, and
explained that. In detail, a thorough can
vass was made Into the merits of the
contest, despite the fact that the con
testants had withdrawn their claims on
the ground that fair treatment could not
be had. He said the Imputation was di
rected -at the convention itself and,
though resented deeply by the commit
tee, the Inquiry was exhaustive and pa
tient. The report closed with a declara
tion that the "stalwart" faction, led by
Senators Spooner and Quarles, Represent
ative Babcock and Judge Baensch, the
"V
four delegates at large, is the regular
Republican party in "Wisconsin. This
National indorsement of the faction
headed by the two "United States Sen
ators from that state evoked prolonged
applause.
When Senator McComas had completed
the reading of the report from the com
mittee on credentials, Senator Foraker
was recognized. He called the attention
of the convention to the fact that Major
General Osterhaus, a German veteran of
the Civil "War, was In the hall, and sug
gested that he be Invited to a seatjon the
platform. The convention chered the
name of Osterhaus.
The Ohio Senator spoke briefly of the
part the General had played in the as
sault on Missionary Ridge, and of his aid
to Sherman In the latter's march to the
sea. The chairman appointed a commit
tee, which escorted the General to the
platform, where he was Introduced to the
convention as "Sherman's Corps Com
mander." In a decidedly" German accent.
General Osterhaus thanked the conven- :
tlon for the honor accorded him. He
mentioned the fact that he had been pres
ent when Abraham Lincoln was nominat
ed. The applause which followed was vig
orous. Senator Depew reported that no action
was necessary by the committee charged
with the perfection of arrangements for
the convention to accept the Invitation
of the Louisiana Purchase Exposition
Company to visit the Exposition as their
guests, as this had 'already been attended
to" by the Exposition management.
Wild Applause Greets Cannon.
The announcement of the permanent
organization for the convention started
the continuous demonstration which fol
lowed the Introduction of Speaker Can
non as permanent chairman. He was es
corted to the platform by a committee
consisting of John D. Long. The tem
porary and permanent chairmen met In
the center of the stage, where they
clasped hands in a cordial greeting. At
this moment the applause was deafening,
the convention rising to its feet.
Still clasping his hand, Mr. Root led
Mr. Cannon to the edge of the platform
and Introduced him to the convention as
the man who presided over the greatest
legislative body in America, "with a grip
so strong, a mind so clear, and a heart
so sound that he would wield the gavel
in that body for many years to come."
The scene that followed was inspiring;
flags waved, hats were thrown into the
air, delegates jumped to their feet and
then to the chairs, shouting wildly, loud
ly and continuously. Until the applause
subsided, Mr. Cannon stood awkwardly
facing his audience
Speaker Cannon's oratory was decidedly
to the liking of the convention. He es
tabllshed .cordial relations even before he
had uttered a word. He stood in silence
for a moment on a tongue-llko projection
In the center of the platform. His face
fascinated. It expressed abundant humor.

his first speech and had tried to mem
orize It. But he did not have the slight
est Intention of following it He knew
the inspiration would come that It had

"So let us ramble awhile." That is
what he said. And then he abandoned
himself to his limitless store of profound
political sagacity, and his original and
characteristic vocabulary. Throughout
his address the cheering was generous,
Intelligent and appreciative.

CHICAGO, June 22. Following Is the
speech of Chairman Cannon before the
Republican National Convention today:
"Gentlemen of the Convention: For the first
time in my fife I put in black and white enough
sentences to contain 2500 words to say to you.
I have tried to memorize it, but I cannot.
havo given it out through the usual channels
to the great audience, and now I most either
beg to be excused entirely or I must do like
we do down in the House of Representatives
under the five-minute rule and make a few
remarks. But that no man shall say ,1 have
made a great speech, I will set that matter at
rest by saying that from beginning to end
heartily Indorse every statement ot fact and
every sentiment that was given you yesterday
from the temDorarv uresldlngr officer in the
greatest speech delivered at a convention.
Brawling River like to the Piatt.
Now, let me go on and ramble. And, first,
they say there is no enthusiasm in this con
vention. Gentlemen, the great river that has
its SO feet of water, rising in the mountains
and growing in depth and breadth down to the-
ocean, bears upon Its bosom the commerce of
that section of land that it drains and bears it
out to the world. It is a silent river, and yet
the brawling river that is like to the River
Platte out in Nebraska, that Is 14 miles wide
and four inches deep, makes more noise, than
the bigger river.
"When we were young folks, 20 years ago,
we went to see our best girls. "We were awful.
ly enthusiastic if they would give us a nod of
the head, or the trip-away, catch-me-If-you-can

be glad of a little of our kind ot enthusiasm?
Totes Better Than Enthusiasm.
1 might ilustrate further yet. I don't know
that it is necessary. I see some of my former
friends before me my colleague, Colonel Low-
den, and various others. Now, there is not
one of you that raises chickens, as I do, but
what understands that when the hen comes off
the nest with one chicken she does more
scratching and makes more noise than the
motherly hen that is fortunate with 23. Our
friends, the enemy, will have the enthusiasm
we will take the votes In November.
To be serious for a moment, the Republican
party is a government through party and
through organization. Oh, you find people once
in a while who do not want any parties. As
long as you have 80,000,000 people, competent
for self-government, they will organize and
will call the organisation a party. The He
publican party, born ot the declaration that
slavery la sectional and freedom" National,
achieved its first success in IS SO with Abraham
Lincoln. Secession the War of the Union
you older men recollect it well. "We have one
of the survivors here. I was glad to see the
convention give him the courtesies of the con
vention. He helped to make it possible that
we could have this convention.
Republicans Brought Nation Out.
IJorty-four years ago just about now what a
contrast! a divided country, a bankrupt treas
ury, no credit. The Republican party got power
and under its great leadership, wrote revenue
legislation upon the statute books and. went
back to the principles ot "Washington and Ham
ilton and legislation that would produce reve
nue, while fixing duties upon imports so ad-
Justed as to encourage every American citizen
to take part in the diversified Industries ana
resources ot the country.
"Will you bear with me for five minutes while
speak of the comparison as it was then upon
the one hand of facts and the- condition today!
In 1860 we had been substantially dominated
for many years by the free-trade party, and
were insignificant in manufactures, great in
agriculture. Under oar policy, which has been
followed with the exception ot four years.
from that Ume to this, the United States re
mains first in agriculture, but by leaps and
bounds has diversified her Industries until to
day we are the greatest manufacturing coun
try on God's footstool. One-third of all the
world's products that come from the factory
are made in the United States by the operation
and eo-nrveration of American capital and
American labor and skill.
Market for Our Products.
Let us make one other statement: Our prod
uct every year is greater than the entire com
bined manufactured product of Great Britain,
of Germany and of France. "Where do we get
the market for It? Nmety-sevcn per cent ot
this ereat Droduct one-third the world's prod
uct finds a market among ourselves ill tha
United States. And yet of this product last
year we sold to foreign countries I am speak
lng now of the manufactured product more
than S400.000.000 20 per cent of our total ex
ports, and our total exports made and make
us the greatest exporting Nation on eartn.
Made by labor? Yes, made hy lauor mat

Postal Service as jjjcaropie.
Take the Postofflco Department that

gentlemen, the city postolnce or cnicago
last year collected more revenue by almost
$1,000,000 than was collected by the whole

How Is it now? "Wo have reduced postal
rates over one-half since 1S60 on the aver
age. Last year the postal revenues were
$134,000,000, as against $8,000,000 in 1S00.
Keep that In your mind $134,000,000. And
the whole service only cost $138,000,000. we
had a deficit of $4,000,000, 3 per cent, and
we would not have had that deficit had it
not been, under the lead of the Repub
Hcan party, looking out for the welfare ot
all the people, and conducting the Gov
ernment from a business standpoint; under
the lead ot McKlnley, followed by Roose
velt. there was established free rural de
livery that cost $1,000,000. Great heavens!
The Republican party from 1800 until this
moment moves on does what good common-sense
dictated and the country grows
to It.
Democrats Ever Hold a Dagger.
The Republican party is a National party
and believes In diversification of our Indus
tries and the protection of American capital
and American labor as against the cheaper
labor elsewhere on earth. what do the
other people believe In? For 00 years went
out the cry of free trade throughout the
world; free ships upon the sea; on other
questions, a tariff for revenue only. The
free trade party has always denounced the
Republican policy of protection as robbery
and whenever clothed with power, whatever
its pretenses, it has thrust a dagger into
the very heart of protection.
Oh. well, aren't they going to change? Let
us see. just beiore tne close or me last
Congress New York's eloquent son. Bourke
Cockran, a member of the House of Rep
resentatlves, got the floor, and he preached
an ola-iasnionea uemocrauc sermon, iree
trade and all that kind of thing and he
did it well and there came from the mi
nority side' of that house, without exception,
such cheering and crying and hurrahing
and applauding as I never witnessed before
in that House of Representatives, because.
at lasl. they had the pure Democratic faith
delivered to them.
They are trying to convince tho people
that they ought to come into power under
the lead of Gorman In the Senate and
"Williams in the House. They have been
trying to give the .country divers powders.
"Oh." said a distinguished colleague, fol
lowing Senator Gorman, "If we come Into
power, while protection is robbery, we will
say to you that we will Journey in the dl
rection of free trade, but we will not de
stroy our Industries overnight."
Great God! Think, of It. They won't kill
you outright, but they will starve you to
death, day by day. They want to be' on
guard to protect the people who are dwell
lng in peace and prosperity under a Repub
Hcan policy.
Reminds Him of Fable.
It reminds me of the fable of Aesop. You
know the records In one of his fables that
wolves said to the sheep, "discharge the
dogs" who were their natural protectors
"and employ us, and we will take care of
you." Does the capital of this country and
the labor of this country want to be under
the care of "Wolf Gorman and "Wolf "Williams
and their fellows? I think not.
"What a country this is. And, Republi
cans, we have got to outline the policy and
lead the people in caring for it. "Whyf we
are like the women, we not only have to
fake care of ourselves, but more. a3 one of
our women said, we have to take care of
the men. The Republican party not only
has to core for itself, but has to care for
the minority by a wise policy.
How It has been doing it. "We preserved
the Union under the policy and leadership
of this party. Do you recollect that the op
position party on a demand for an armistice
and negotiation and compromise nominated
McCIellan in 1S04 and moved heaven and
earth to defeat Lincoln? Do you recollect
when the Constitutional amendments were
submitted they said nay, nay. and then, af
