THE CLEVELAND RESOLUTIONS.
The Democrat* at Dearer yester
day took a far step toward undoing
one of the meanest things that has
been charged up to the Democratic par*
*y since it made its foolish break in
,896. At the convention that year
the assembled hosts at Chicago—
crazed by &ew ideas that bad been
bred during a panic caused by Re
publican corruption—refused to adopt
a resolution in any way commending
the only Democratic president
country had seen In forty years. Not
only that, but-the man who was nom
inated that year, in his campaign
speeches, went so far as to say that
this president and his followers had
no inheritance In the Democratic
house.
These old-liners were like the prod)
gal son. though no such welcome as
greeted the returning prodigal
for them. Instead of fatted calves,
finger rings and purple robes, they
were to get a “lemon"—the marble
hand—when they knocked upon the
Democratic door. The only way they
could come was upon tbelr hands
and knees. They had to have ashes
on their heads and sack-clothea about
tbelr bodies. All the signs of the
repenting sinner had to be upon them.
They were not only to repent, but
they had to beg forgiveness of the
new “Sir Oracle.” It looked mighty
bad for an old-timer in the faith.
Many were willing to do the “vilest
sinner*’ act, but they did not like to
beg forgiveness of one who did not
even claim ‘‘divine right.” This class
stood out with their old leader, who
voiced their feelings in the words of
the sturdy, unrecanting German
formers, who said: “Here we stand,
we cannot do otherwise—God help

forceful administration of public

“Resolved, As a further mark

Judge Parker, of New York, also
had some resolutions in his pocket
to be offered to the convention. These
he read to the convention In second
ing the adoption of the others and
yllable of them caused great
applause. However, the former res
olutions were so complete that Judge
Parker accepted them, seconded their
adaption and withdrew his own.
'Having adapted the Cleveland resolu
tions, the convention adjourned for
the day in honor of the ex-President.
The cheers which greeted the name
of Cleveland at Denver sounded very
much like the old-time battle cry of
the Triumphant Democracy, and if a
good platform is made *hero Is ground
to believe that the party has more
flatting chance this yeai

It U a fact that Mr. Rockefeller
stands at the head of six men in the
United States who have showered
their wealth on charitable and phil
anthropic undertaking*. The Uni
versity of Chicago stands at the head
of the institutions which have
celved large Individual gifts from Ut!
Rockefeller. It has always been a
favorite with the Standard Oil King
and the magnificent endowments by
him have enabled that institution to
develop, within a comparatively abort
time, frpm a poor and rather ineffl-'
cient institution of learning Into one
of the finest universities of the coun
try, modern in its methods, progress
ive and highly efficient as to results.
It has been estimated that Mr.
Rockefeller, In addition to being the
head of the Oil Trust, is' the controll
ing Influence in more than fifty banks
and trust companies of the United
States, and in sixty per cent of the
railroad corporations of the nation;
that the control of the steel Industry
Is practically within his grasp. In
addition to all that Mr. Rockefeller
Is reputed to be interested In about
five hundred other corporations. It
is, of course, extrmely difficult to ob
tain an even approximately correct
estimate of his wealth. In 1905 It
was estimated at $8,600,000,000, while
at present his wealth is probably be
tween 800 and 900 millions.

effective July 1. Dr. Wiley is chief
of the chemistry bureau of the De
partment of Agriculture, which has
oharge of the enforcement of the pure
food law, safs the New York World.
The pure food law applies to liquor
in bottles as well as to edibles am
medicines. 4 Its sole object Is to «i
lhle every purchaser to know unde]
\ government guarantee what he l
buying, eating and drinking. It doe|
not attempt to decide what

All whisky henceforth will he di
vided into four kinds—straight, blend
ed, compound and Imitation. Straight
whisky is from one distillation of
pure grain kept In bond long enough
to age naturally and containing n>
other Ingredients. Where several
straight whiskies are combined the
result 1sWalled blended. The mixture
of whisky, neutral splritt^Cpjylug
matter and flavoring Is calle^*com-
pound. Imitation whisky is made of
alcohol, water, coloring and flavoring,
usually -prune Juice, and contains no
real whisky at all.
This classification should help the
whisky trade, especially the distillers
of straight whisky, while those drink
ers who Veter a mixture of alcohol,
fusel oil* and prune juice are not in
terfered with by the act.
Here Is a law which meddles with
no man’s liberty or freedom of choice
discretion. Yt . simply prevents
fraud anfi compels truth-telling in
business, which should be among the
first functions of government.
