In the republican convention was the still small voice of Roosevelt In the hearts of a hypnotized delegation. In thU convention the only trouble will be In compressing the snort of the unterrl fied Into polite lunguage. If It Is charged that In Its platform the re publican convention didn't mean all It said, It may be pretty sure that this convention will not say all It means. The average conservative citizen to whom squatting In a cold bath tub of water Is a -startling adventure, will take no comfort in the two. platforms of the great parties this year. For the democratic platform will be dictated by Bryan, he Is the conven tion, "the bn'sum tight, the midship's mite, and the crew of the Nancy Brig " And as between the platform which satlnfles Mr. Roosevelt and the plat form which pleases Mr. Bryan, the only question which occurs to the conservative citizen Is shall law-defying wealth be turned down or blown up. That Is the choice between the parties. To him the republican con vention was an assemblage of fire brands and this Is a gathering of dy namiters. Still It was calm here today until Oklahoma lit. The Oklahomans came with a band and a procession, and when they arrived -t their hotel they had speeo : pow-wowlng and for a few uiuiia-iiis there was a sound of revelry hy night which made Jim Him Lewis with his pale pink whis kers and his sky blue hat band, who was the most audible thing In the town, sink Into silence sweeter than a summer night. Loud Roar of Necktie. But when Oklahoma disintegrated the loud roar of Mr. Lewis' haber dashery rose above the din and not even the white flannels of the south ern delegates, the broad hats of the Texans nor the Irrldescent breath of Tammany could quell Mr. Lewis. If the republican convention had Its steam roller, Mr. Jim Ham Lewis Is the sartorial fog horn of this momen tous occasion. And he Is no "lone peak of Darlen" either. There are others. This gathering of the great plain peepul Is certainly a clothes congress. There are more high hats, Silurian and post-tertlery formation, at this uprising of the oppressed than ever assembled west of the Mississippi be fore. If this thing Is going to continue when the bastlle falls In this country and the guillotine takes up Its work, the mob that greets plutocraehy will look those panoramas of fashion be ginning with the Goths and ending on Fifth avenue that used to adorn the tailor shops of the countries In the eighties. IiillUH(liy of Clothe. But declaration of Independence In clothes merely expresses the unfet tered uncombed and unterrlfled soul. Bryan dominates, but he does not con trol. He has no lieutenants. There Is no card index In the situation. There U no boss, no sub-boss to system here. There Is not the semblance of a ma chine. The congressional crowd Is glad to be alive with ' a license to breathe regularly. It does not arro gate to Itself any authority as It does conventions wherein there is a con gressional majority. In the days when there was a democratic congress, there was a democratic machine, but now In this "convention the man who would try to organize anything through the congressional machine would be spit ting Into a tidal wave. So three things are settled. Bryan will be the candidate, Bryan's Idea of what will beat Taft will be the plat form, and Bryan will be the vice-pres ident. The vice-presidential nomtna Hon will be a mistake as it always Is. But It will probably bo Bryan's mis take, which Is more than Sherman to Tuft. Bryan's Flint Choice. Bryan's first choice is said to be O'Nell of Connecticut, a wealthy man ufacturer, whom no one ever heard of, but who has been loyal to Bryan through his entire career. But Bryan would be glad to get dray and would take Towne or would not object to any of half a dozen gentlemen who are gasping for a fleeting breath of fame and blowing the waters of obscurity out of their faces. But It Is well known here that Bryan has drawn Just one 'line. He will have none of Mr. Johnson of Minnesota. He believes, so gossips say around the hotel corridors, that Johnson tied up with the antl-Bryun crowd not to get the nomination for Johnson, but to beat Bryan. He thinks Johnson put sand In the bearings of Bryan's machine, not so much to overtake It as to wreck it; so among the Bryan people there Is the mist and the blind ing rain for Mr. Johnson. Wherefore, Mr. Johnson 'announces that ho will not accept second place, which no nmn ever declined. This Is all the politics there Is In this convention today. NO (illlllNlKM'Iflg. But there Is no gumshoeing; there Is no whispering and mighty few con ferences. No one knows anything. There Is no place where the sanctu ary Is kept. The platform which was printed at Chicago the Sunday be fore the convention has not arrived. No one has It in his pocket. It Is still rather nebulous. And as the clans gather the delegate who has been here 20 minutes has taken two drinks und some kind and healing libation knows Just as much of the situation as tho oldest Inhabitant who camo hero :.i!H Tuesday.

PANAMA FACTION RE- S EN TS I N T El t KE1 1 E N CE A th ' !' i identlal campaign In Panun.:. d:aus to a "close, charges and counter charges of graft and cor ruption are being made by the lead ers of the' two factions and the ex citement among the people Is reaching a high pitch. iThe election will be held Sunday. The present appear- i ances point to the success of Oencral J. D. de Obaldla, whose party waa successful in the recent municipal elections. . Obaldla Is tho opposition candidate to the government party, which is supporting Dr. Rlcardo Ari as, President Amudor'a minister of foreign affairs, for president. Obal dla declares that wholesale graft has marked Amador's administration and that it Is the purpose of the Arias to perpetuute such a regime. Hundreds of American marines are patrollng the canal lone, to protect the property of the United States govtrnment. but no serious trouble is anticipated. It is alleged by Obaldla that the gov ernment party, frightened by the re sult of the municipal elections, is making preparations for wholesale ballot box stuffing. The organs of the Arias party are very bitter against the I'nlted States government for Its intervention In Panama's political contest, and the Star and Herald, in an editorial said to be inspired by President Amador, caustically remarks, with a covert threat: "On election day. God forbid there may pass In Punama something which, like the explosion of the Maine, may servo ns a cause so that all of us remain enmeshed In the com mon conflagration, for ls t not true that the Americans arc today In the world the heralds of purity of suf frage, and that solely through love of this purity do they come to break lances In a foreign land, whilst In their own country the recollection that bal lot boxes full of ballots were thrown Into the muddy waters of the Missis sippi still remain fresh? "We desire pure elections. We want a president to be he who has obtained the greatest number of votes at the poll?, but we do not ac cept the present Intervention, because we consider It unconstitutional, In convenient and dangerous." The Obaldla party, on the other hand, welcomes the supervision of the election by the United States au thorities. The Press, a supporter of General Obaldla, declares that the discontent of the Arias supporters Is due to the fear that the Intervention of the "big stick" will prevent the crrylng out of their plans for stealing the election. Fear Is expressed In some quarters that present peaceful appearances are deceptive and that the malcontents will yet succeed In arousing the peo ple to a widespread revolt that will give Uncle Sam's marines plenty to do In coping with the situation, Saloon Methods of "Getting Eren."
