Davis of West Vir- ginia for vice-president. Judge Parker was nominated, iudirt ctly i by the (rusts, bankers and Wall St reft gamblers of New York. In other words Judge Parker has been nominated, indirectly by the sam jMiver that, tried to control Roose velt and failed. When Roosevelt was spoken of as the running mate of McKinlcy the trusts of New York did all they could to have nim put ou the ticket, so as to get hiui out of New York State, and get another mil as Govern -r who they thought they co:ild control. As proof of this statement, no sooner had he Iteea nominated than the heads of these corporal ions, together with their poPtical too's, boasted openly that they had shelved him ami that he wail dead politically. This is the crowd that has uow turnevl to Judge Parker aa their lender. As to Ex-Senator Davis, who is now 81 years old, it appears that he was put on the ticket because he is a multi-millionaire and they know they will need the money to add to Wall Street's big pile if they make any showing for Judge Parker in this campaigu.

BLACK'S SPEECH Placing Roosevelt In Nomination at the Republican Convention In Chicago, Jane S3, 1904. Mr. President and Gentlemen of the Convention : We are here t inaugurate a campaign which seems already to be nearly closed. So wisely have the people sowed and watched and tended, there seems little now to do but to measure up the grain. They are ranging them selves, not for battle, but for har vest. In one column, reaching trom the Maine woods to the Puget Sound, are those people and those States which have stood so long to gether that when great emegencies arise the nation turns instinctively to them. In this column, vast and solid, is a majority so overwhelm ing that the scattered squads in op position can hardly raise another army. The enemy have neither guns nor ammunition, and if they had they would use them on each other. Destitute of the weapons of effective warfare, the only evi dence of approaching battle is in the tone and number of their bul letins. There is discord among the generals; discord among the sol diers. Each would fight in his own way, but before assaulting his Republican adversaries he would first destroy his own comrades in the adjoining tents. Each be lieves the weapons chosen by the other are not only wicked, but fatal to the holder. That is true. This is the only war of modern times where the boomerang has been sub stituted for the gun. Whatever fatalities may occur, however, among the discordant hosts now-moving- ou to St. Louis, no harm will come this fall to the American people. The e will be no opposi tion sufficient to raise a conflict. There will be hardly enough for competition. There are no Demo cratic plans for the conduct o? the fall campaigu. Their zeal is chief ly centered in discussion as to what Thomas Jefferson w ould do if he were living. He is not living, and but few of the descendants are among the Democratic remnants of to-day. Whatever of patriotism or wisdom eminated from that dis tinguished man is now represented in this convention. It is a sad day for any party when its only means of solving liv-. ing issues is by guessing at the pos sible attitude of a statesman who is dead. This condition leivj3 that party always a beginner and makes every question new. The Demo cratic party has seldom tried a problem on its own account, and when it has its blunders have been its only monuments; its courage is remembered only in regret. As long as these things are recalled that party may serve as ballast, but it will never steer the ship. The Democratic Moto, " forget;" When all the people have for gotten will dawn a golden era for this new Democracy. But the country is not ready yet to place a party in the lead whose most ex motto is the cheerless word "forget." That motto may express contrition, but it does not inspire hope. Neither confidence nor enthusiasm will ever be aroused by any party which enters each ftfriiif the lamruaire of the mourner. There is ou fuudameutal plank, ho vever, on which the two great parties are in full agreement. Both believe in the equality of men. The difference is that the Democratic party would make every man as low as the poorest, while the Republican party would make every niau as high aa the best. But the Democratic course will pro voke nocutside interference now, for the Republican motto is that of the great commander, 4 'JN ever in terrupt the enemy while he is mak ing a mistake." In politics aa in other fields, the most impressive arguments spring from contrast. .Never na been a more strikiug example of unity ihau is uow afforded by this ..... 4VkkAr1 here not as factioi s torn but moved by ouo desire ant viawe, il r ind intent; you have come as lll.chosenrcpreseutativeaoff.e most 'enlightened paity -in the woild. the! You meet not as strangers, for no men are strangers who hold the same beliefs and espouses . the same cause. You may separate two bodies of water for a thousand years, but when once the barrier is removed they mingle instantly and are one. The same traditions .in spire and the same purposes actu ated us all. Never in our lives did these purposes stand with deeper root than now. At least two gen erations have passed away since the origin of that great movement from which sprang the spirit which has been the leading impulse in American politics for half a cen tury. In that movement, which was both a creation and an ex ample, were those great characters which endowed the Republican party at its birth with the attri butes of justice, equality and prog ress, which have held it to this hour, in line with the highest sent iments of mankind. From these men we have inherited the desire, and to their memory we owe the resolution, that those great schemes of government and hnmanity, in spired by their patriotism, and es tablished by their blood, shall re main as the fixed and permanent emblem of their labors, and the abiding signal of the liberty and progress of the race. Republicans Never Fall In Crises. There are many new names in these days, but the' Republican party needs no new title. It stands now wiiere it stood at the begin ning. Memory alone is needed to tell the source from which the in spirations of the country flow. A drowsy memory would be as guilty now as a sleeping watchman when the enemy is astir. The name of the -Republican party stands over every door where a iighteous cause was born. Its members have gathered around every movement, no matter how weak, if inspired by high resolve. Its flag for more than fifty years has been the sign of hope on every spot where liber ty was the woid. That party needs no new name or platform to desig nate its purposes. It. is now, as it has been, equipped, militant and iu motiou. The problems of every age that age must solve. Great causes impose great demands, but never in any enterprise have the American people failed, and never in any crises has the Republican party failed to express the con science and intelligence of that people. The public mind is awake both to its opportunities and its dangers. Nowhere in the world, in any era, did citizenship mean more thau it means to-day in America. Men of courage and sturdy character are ranging themselves together with a unanimity seldom seen. There is no excuse for groping iu the dark, for the light is plain to him who will but raise his eyes The American people believe iu a man or party that has convictions and knows why. They believe that what expenenc3 has proved it is idle to resist. A wise man is any fnnl about to die. But there is a wisdom which, with good fortune, mav sruide the living and the mJ O ' strong. That wisdom springs from reason, observation and ex perience. Guided by these this i:. is Ttlfim nnfl vntinp men may rely upon it that the his tory and purposes I have described, rising even to the essence and as pirations of patriotism, find their best concrete example in the career and doctrines of the Republican party. To be Continued. The Democratic papers are say ing that Dick Hackett did up the Hou. Spencer Blackburn, iu the joint debate at Dobson on the 4th of July, Blackburn had the con clusion, and Hackett staid over aud .,,..,1 o ft ctnench that uiaht. That of itself showed that Blackburn done him up, Tell the truth gen tlemen.

Every busybody who wants the wheels of progress blocked is con vinced that President Roosevelt is dangerous. No one ever fctops to enquire to what party ''Coin" Harvey, "Cal amity" VVeller, and ex-Senator Pettigrew belong. No organization in the history of ' the world has been so successful as ! the Democratic party iu telling us the things that were not so. The Republican vocabulary is composed largely of words of en-1 couragement; the Democratic is limited to words of woe and warn ing. Summed up, the Democratic platform reads, "We know that we were wrong before and we are not cocksure that we time." are right this The industrial organization dis tributed 134,000,000 iu dividends in New York ou July 1. Xot much encouragement in that for calamity shoulers. Like a man lost in the snow, the Democratic party spends most of its time traveling over its own abandoned trails, and praying for i way out. The Republican party fights things and conditions that threaten to tattoo the nation with indelible marks of calamity. The Demo cratic party welcomes them. The New York State Banks have added $45,000,000 to their deposits in the last year. The people's sav ings are always represented by red iuk figures under a Democratic administration. The only picture displayed at the St. Louis convention Mas that of Thomas Jefferson. This leads to the suspicion that the only good Democrats, like the good Indians, are the dead ones. Dun and Bradstreet report that the business iuterests of the coun try are recoveriug from the recent temporary depression and that the outlook is most promising for an exceptionally prosperous year. That will be good news to every body but the Democrats. -L When the Republican convention met in Chicago the Republican can didate for the Presidential nomina tion presented a record of virile, courageous meeting of responsibili ties. When the Democratic con vention met, the party's candidate for the President was out among his fat steers, waiting for the con vention to tell him what he might. think. Some of the papers say that "Ex Senator Butler has gone over bag aud bajrjraere to the Republican party." Ia steppiug from Bryan to Parker, we have an idea that the whole Democratic party has played the Butler game -Raleigh Euter prise. Domestic Trouble.
