CONVENTION
(Continued from page 1)
convention. Senator Taylor also re
sponded to the calls for a speech.
Chairman Bell then announced that
the committee on credentials was
ready to report. Christopher G. Cal
feghan, the chairman of the commit
tee, read the report.
Callaghan declared the committee
lad carefully investigated the con
tests and "Recommends that in each
following contests the delegations
named by the national committee
should be entitled to a speech, name
ly, the State of Idaho. The first,
second, third, four, fifth, sixth, sev
enth, eighth, ninth and tenth districts
f Illinois. The second, third, fourth,
fifth sixth, seventh districts of New
York. The nineteenth district of
Ohio; the thirty-second district of
Pennsylvania; the District of Colum
bia in the matter of contest; the first,
second, fourth, fifth and sixth dis
tricts of Pennsylvania were recom
mended to contests. The hall shall be
seated and recognized by this conven
tion as duly credited delegates and all
the alternates of said districts in the
State of Pennsylvania.
In the matter of contest in the
ninth district of Ohio the committee
recommends the following to be
seated as duly credited delegates and
all the accredited delegates from the
said districts: E. A. Powers and Dr.
William Walls.
When Callaghan read the decision
again Guffey a few hisses and some
applause was heard. In the matter
f the two last lists of committee
appointments from Pennsylvania, Cal
laghan recommended that in view of
the contest decisions the lists should
Be referred back to the delegation for
further action. The usual motion to
adopt was followed by recognition.
Mr. I. L. Strauss, of Maryland, who
read the minority report which rec
ommended that the contestees in the
Pennsylvania cases be seated.
Strauss' declaration of the action
of the majority committee was a stag
gering blow at the democracy of a
sovereign state. Cheers. After some
preliminary sparring Callaghan rec
egnized the open debate of the ma
jority, and declared that Guffey had
formed an alliance republican machine
in Philadelphia, to smother the demo
cratic votes, and "When we consid
ered all the evidence it is impossible to
escape conclusion of real democracy
of Philadelphia has been kept at home
hy an alliance, one element of democ
racy with the dominant republican
machine that stay.
John D. Bellamy, one of the sign
ers of the minority, brought forth a
storm of disapproval, when he assert
ed that the republicans who went to
the polls as democrats had a right to
liave votes counted as democrats.
Bellamy explained that the democra
tic party was ready to open its doors
to anyone who desired to adopt its
principles. There was some applause
at this and the speaker soon brought
lis address to a close.
Governor Haskell, of Oklahoma,
elosed for majority discussed sarcas
tically Bellamy's contention and as
serted Bellamy, under his argument,
might as well have been selected a
delegate to the Chicago convention.
Governor Haskell charged tire Penn
sylvania contestees as being tools of
the Standard Oil Company.
When Senator Gore, the blind sen
ior of Oklahoma called the rostrum
this afternon to make an address dur
ing the lull, little did he realize that
in a few minutes the entire hall would
fce in a state of bedlam. They broke
loose through a casual mention by
him of Bryan's name. Speaking of
the Oklahoma constitution and criti
cism made of it by Roosevelt and the
work of Taft in opposition to it,
Gore said that the advice of Bryan
Bad been followed. Immediately
there was a great cheer among the
Bryan boosters which was taken up
in every section of the house and al
most in a moment the hall was in an
uproar. The true state of delegations
known to be opposed to Bryan take
little or no part in the demonstration
but their silence was hardly apparent
in the wonderful demonstration which
followed. As the minutes flew by the
demonstration gathered in volume.
Every effort on the part of Chairman
Hell to bring quiet was unavailing. He
could have battered his desk to pieces
and no one would have heard the
noise. Ten minutes, a half hour flew
by and still there was no signs that
the delegates and spectators had
tired. The half hour grew into an
hour, and still the clamor kept up.
The marchers bearing banners pa
raded around the hall, bands played
and hats and coats were thrown into
the air in the wildness of the dele
gates they show their favor toward
the Xebraskan. After one hour and
27 minutes of unchecked joy and re
vel on the part of Bryan's friends
Chairman Bell finaly secured order
and shortly after the adjournment
until tonight. Ayes 387, nays 615. The
announcement bought great cheer
ing, the majority report then adopt
ed the viva-voce vote In a few
minutes the convention adjourned un
til tomorrow morning.
The committee on resolutions and
the subcommittees appointed to con
sider the various specific planks la
bored all day and late into the
night on the platform.
Denouncing what the committee
termed Roosevelt's "Pertutuation of
his dynasty" the injunction subcom
mittee, Messrs. Williams, Parker and
Sullivan labored all day in constant
conference with labor leaders and it
is expected the resolution will not be
completed until tomorrow. A sub
committee recommended the adoption
of comprehensive tariff plank includ
ing provision for free print paper, free
wood pulp, lumber, logs, etc., and
general rivision of tariff on import
duties, especially in articles compet
ing with the American manufactures,
as are sold abroad cheaper than at
home. The peamble Nebraska plat
form was accepted for platform at the
present convention, so close is com
mittee and subcommittee adhering to
the Bryan policy, that one member
facetiously declared that it stood
"16' to 1" on all propositions, Judge
Parker being the odd member. There
was a sharp controversity between
Parker and Senator Pettigrew on the
subject of courts, Parker favoring
the announcement of party's confi
dence in the federal courts which was
opposed by Pettigrew. Compromise
leaving the subject untouched. Wom
an suffrage will probably be ignored.
Robert D. Inman of Oregon pre
sented a strong plank exclusion of
Oriental fiber, also one for increasing
the coast defense. A number of
planks in the Nebraska platform ac
cepted, are practically as they ap-
pered in that document.
BINGER HERMANN'S TRIAL.
Probably Will Take Place in October
Under Direction of Heney.
PORTLAND, July 8.-Bingcr Her
mann, ex-Congressman and ex-Com
missioner of the General Land Office
will be tried in Portland in October.
Hermann will be prosecuted by
Francis Joseph Heney in person.
Although there are persistent re
ports that Hermann's case will never
come to trial, the government officials
at the Federal building assert that
these renorts are without foundation.
For several weeks past negotiations
have been in progress looking to the
trial of Binger Hermann. The evi
dence, documentary, to be introduced
in the case, is in the keeping of
Thomas B. Neuliausen, special in
spector of the Interior Department.
This evidence has been boxed up for
more than three years. As soon as
the date of the trial is determined,
Neuliausen will have to open the
boxes of evidence and arrange it for
the use of the prosecution. The task
of tabulating and indexing the docu
ments for Heney will begin during
the latter part of this month or in
August.
LUSITANIA'S RECORD.
NEW YORK, July 8.-The swift
Cunard liner Lusitania has broken
another speed record by logging 643
miles a day, according to information
received today by the Cunard line of
ficials in New York. She previously
held the speed record at 641 miles for
a day.
How the lmptri!itio Emblm Cam
to B Adopttd,
An old Freucu pamphlet published In
1815 tells lww the violet euine to Ik? the
emblem of the Imperialist, or NhihiI
uttlo. party In Franco.
Three days before going luto exllo on
the islaud of Elba Napoleon was walk
ing up and down a garden, at Fontaine
bleu, discussing his future with the
Due de Bussnuo and General Beltrami,
lie was still uneertulu whether be
should go to Elba quietly at the bid
ding of his enemies or whether he
should try to offer some resistance.
The Due de Bnssnno was urging him to
strike a blow for his itlterty-bad ad
vice surely.
As the trio walked back and forth
they came upon a child three or four
years old who was picking violets.
Xapoleou culled the lutby to him and
asked for his flowers, and the little
thing ave the enmeror all he had. A
silence In the political talk followed
until Napoleon, who always had n vein
of superstition In his reasoning, said;
"Well, gentlemen. I ant thinking of
that child. That chance meeting seems
to me like a piece of secret advice,
warning me for the future to Imitate
the modesty of this tlower. Yes, the
violet shall henceforward be the em
blem of my desires."
"Sire." said Bertram! boldly, "for
your majesty's glory I like to think
that feeling will last no longer lu you
than the flowers that Inspired It."
But the emperor, silent nnd unheed
ing now, withdrew and went to his
private rooms. The next day he was
seen walking In the garden1 with a
buuch of violets In his buttonhole nnd
stooping now and again to pluck more.
A man named Choudleu, a grenadier
of the guard, was on sentry duty, ami.
taklug advantage of the laxity of dls
clpllue that prevailed In this hour of
ruin, he ventured to speak to the fallen
sovereign.
"lu another year, sire, the vtolet
will be growing thicker here, You can
gather them with le;s trouble."
What:" was the answer. "Do you
suppose I will be here next year?"
"Perhaps sooner. We soldiers hope
so.
"But do you know that I leave for
Elba day after tomorrow?"
"Your majesty will suffer the storm
to pass."
"Are your comrades talking and feel
ing as you do?"'
"Almost all of them."
"Ah. well, tell them to feel, but not
to talk. When your sentry duty Is
over, go to General Bertram!. lie will
give you twenty napoleons. But keep
the secret."
Choudleu did not keep entirely secret
the story of his conference with his
majesty, but he threw a veil over his
allusions nnd taught the other soldier?
to do so by calling their great and
worshiped leader Father Violet. Little
by little talk about Father Violet
reached the public, nnd to wear n
bunch of violets by the time the nex
season came aro'.tnd was n lecognlr.e;!
sign of iuipei-l.iltetic sympathies. T
this day violets are not worn In the
same general way In Fra::'"' that t !:.;
are here and lu England, ben: "re t !:.?:
are felt to be a ;o:i!!tl bridge. A 1j
gitlmlst would not be soon with n
bunch In bis buttonhole any more tlir.n
he would wear n republican tricolor
cockade.
Force of Habit.
A Boston psychologist was recently
reminded of the story of the Russian
jailer who, changing his occupation,
found the chief Interest of hlH leisure
moments In catching birds, putting
them iii cages and selling them to the
highest bidder.
The scientist, having to attend a
series of lectures In a large public hall.
struck up acquaintance with the jani
tor of the building and soon noted In
him a suggestive bent of mind. The
man seemed fond of counting the peo
ple and would occasionally report the
exact number present. "We have 115
here tonight," he would say, or "Jost
201 all told," or, when the hall was
crowded, "I make It 370." There was a
problem In all this, but it took some
time for the psychologist to solve It
A bit of friendly, familiar talk, con
tinually renewed, did the business, for
it brought out the fact that the Janitor
had spent many of the previous years
of his life as warden In an eastern
prison. With rifle on shoulder from
some inclosing wall the man bad count
ed his convicts until the habit became
Ingrained. In the recesses of his brain
the lecture ball took the shape of a
Jail yard, and the audience were hto
prisoners. He counted because he
wished to know If all were there. Bos
ton Herald.
An Astonishing Airship.
In these days of dirigible balloons,
airships and aeroplanes the following
account of an airship taken from the
London Post for Dec. 22, 1709, is of In
terest: "Father Bartholomew Laurent says
that be has found out an Invention by
the help of which one may more speed
ily travel through the air than any
other way, either by land or sea, so
that one may go 200 miles In twenty
four hours."
The airship which was to accomplish
this astonishlug feat, had at the top
"sails wherewith the air is to be di
vided, which turn as they are direct
ed." There was a rudder to direct the
ressel's course, and the body was
"formed at both ends scr.llopwlse. In
the cavity of each Is a pair of bellows,
which must be blown when there Is no
wind."
Two loadstones, some large amber
beads and various other Items all had
some mysterious part to play In this
attempt to traverse the air.
HE BOOMS SEATTLE
A Breezy Booster Descends
Upon Chicago !
AFTER EXHIBITS FOR FAIR
Seattle is Getting Ready Now and j
Wants Chicago to Let Loose of
Any Old Odds and Ends That Will j
Help Exposition Out. j
CHICAGO, July 8.-Like a breeie
from a western whirl wind Capt. A.
arrived in Chicago yesterday. He
is out for exhibits, concessions, state
buildings and any other odds and ends
he may find around that will add to
the attractiveness of the AlakaYu-kon-Paeific
Exposition.
The exposition is to be hefd in
Seattle next summer, and according
to Capt. Lewis the sublime beauties
of the woodland, lake and mountain
which surround the buildings make
such thing as Streets of Cairo, ma
chincry exhibits and roller eoasters
almost superfluous.
"Wc have many of our most im
portant buildings ready for the ex
hibition now sir", said the captain.
Think of it, the manufacturers build
ing, the fire department's building an
absolute novelty by the way the Cal
ifornia state building and others are
complete a year before the dale set
for the opening.
"We are going to have an immense
Eskimo village and thousands of dol
lars will be spent demonstrating in a
natural creek the placer mine that has
made so many western millionaires.
Then we will have a unique riding de
vice, the tlip flip."
"The government has appropriated
$6(10,000 for the . exposition. The
Arctic Brotherhood and the business
men's associations of Alaska have
contributed $100,000. I don't know
what Chicago is going to do but as
Seattle bought $11,000,000 worth
of goods from Chicago last year, I
think she will do something.'
Then the captain launched into a
glowing statistical account of the
thousands of dollars that could be
made from fruit raised on a vacant
lot in the State of Washington in one
year.
