~From the Journal (Minneapolis.)
is virtually in command of the situa
tion. With it lies the arranging of
the details, the “framing up” of the
procedure of the first session, the se
lection of the temporary chairman,
and, in a great many cases, though
not always, the program making of
the whole convention, temporary and
permanent organizations, nominating,
and platform building.
It is the chairman of the National
Committee who calls the convention
to order, usually about noon upon the
day set. This year the Republican
National Convention will be called to
order by Harry C. New on June 16,
and the Democratic Convention will
be called to order by Thomas Taggart
on July 7.
The convention called to order, the
chairman requests the secretary to
read the call for the convention,
which is done. Then the roll call is
gone through, and this takes a lot of
time. The next step is the announce
ment by the chairman that the com
mittee offers to the convention as its
temporary chairman the name of So
and-so, There are loud and pro
longed cheers, and by a viva voce vote
Mr. So-and-so is unanimously elected,
The Roosevelt third-term bug which
attacked Washington as well as other
parts of the United States a week or
two ago has disappeared.
Governor Albert E. Mead, of the
State of Washington, stated his be
liet that President Roosevelt would
not accept a renomination.
.~ The threat of capital to go into
politics and make its influence felt,
Just as labor threatens to do, has
caused perturbation in both parties.
There is usually little trouble over
the election of a temporary chairman,
The chairman then appoints a com
mittee to escort the temporary chalr
man to the platform; the band plays,
the delegation from Mr. So-and-so’s
State makes a lot of noise, and all is
merry.
It is incumbent on the temporary
chairman to make a speech, He in
variably takes advantage of the op
portunity. He “sounds a keynote.”
After the speech various resolu
tions are offered. Usually these
have been arranged for in advance,
and the temporary chairman works
according to a printed schedule,
calling on John Doe and Richard Roe
at the right time, go that ther:a may

be no hitch. Committees are appoint
ed; one on resolutions, which will
have the drafting of the platform;
¢fne on credentials or contested seats,
}me on permanent organization.
Yhese are the important ones. When
they are all chosen, and there has
been a lot of hand-clapping and cheer
ing, as well-known men are appointed
to this or that committee, the tem
porary chairman announces an ad-
Journment, usually until the next day.

TREE’S RESTING |
The Evergreen in Winter — Tropical
Plants in the Dry Season.
“What we call evergreens,” says a
gentleman formerly connected with
the Park Department of St. Louis,
‘‘are not really green during the win
ter, nor are they really alive, but are
dormant,
“Every plant must have its period
of rest at some time in the year, and
in our northern latitudes the winter
is, of course, the most appropriate
season. The evergreens generally re
tain the greater part of their foliage
during the winter, but a close exam
ination shows that it dries to such an
extent as to be really dead, and a
large part of it falls off when the
plants begin their spring growth. The
drying is not peculiar to the foliage.
The branches and stem become as dry
as the foliage, and being almost en
tirely devoid of moisture are little
damaged by the winter’s cold.
“In some parts of the tropics, how
ever, as in the highlands of Southern
Mexico and Central America, the sum
mer is the resting time of the trees,
The intense heat of the sun dries up
the earth, the trees drop their leaves,
the woody portions become as dry as
our evergreens in winter, and the
tree takes its rest until the autumn
rains begin.
**Of course this rule does not apply
to a large number of tropical plants
which grow in moist jungles or
swampy places. They have accus
tomed themselves to their conditions,
but even they still retain the resting
habit, and at some time of the year
relax in their growing and become ag
near dormant for a time as circum
stances will permit.” — St. Louis
Globe-Democrat.

A Cheerful Maid,
Cheerful acceptation of one's lot is
capitally illustrated by a story found
in the National teview. Elizabeth
was the elder employe and Maud a
little serving maid, both in the house
hold of a bachelor clergyman. The
absences of Elizabeth were frequent
and prolonged. Maud was always on
hand. One Sunday morning she
brought in breakfast.
“You again to-day, Maud?” said
the clergyman.
““My Sunday out,” explained Maud,
with a smile.
‘‘Then why aren’t you out?”
“Please, sir,” with another smile,
“when 'tis my Sunday out, Elizabeth
goes."”
