McKinley Indorsed,
j endorse the administration of Wil
li un McKinley. I(s acts have been estab
lished In wisdom and in patriotism, and
at home and abroad it has distinctly ele
vated and extended the influence of the
American nation. Walking untried pa-h
and facing unforae*n responsibilities.
President McKinley has been in every
situation (he true American patriot and
the upright statesman, clear in vision,
strong in judgment, firm in action, a'-
wayfi inspiring and deserving the confi
dence of his countrymen.
In asking the American people to en
dorse this Republican record and to re
new th ir commission to (he Republican
party, we remind them of the fa t trial
the menace to their prosperity has always
resMbd in Democratl principles and no
less in the general incap \iy of the I>- tn
ocratic party to conduct public affairs.
The prime essential of business prosperity
is public confidence in, tin* good sense of
the government and in its ability to deal
intelligently wbh each new problem of
administration and legislation. That enn
fidenco the Democradc party has never
earned. It is hopelessly inadequate and
the country's prosperity when Democrat
ic success at the polls Is announced, halts
and cease* in m re anticipation of Dem
ocratic blunders and failures.
Tlm* Gold Standard.
We renew our allegiance to the princi
ple of the god standard and declare our
confidence In th wisdom of the legislation
of the Fifty-sixth Congress by which the
parity of all our money and the stability
of our currency upon a gold basis has
been secured. We recognise that interest
rahs are a potent factor in production and
business activity, and for the purpose of
further equalizing and of further low* ring
the rate* of interest, we favor such mon
etary legislation as will onattje the vary
ing needs of the season and of oil sections
to lx* promptly mot In order that trade
may b** evenly sustained, labor steadily
employed, and commerce enlarged. The
volume of money jn circulation was never
so great |>er capita as it Is to-day. We
d* dare our steadfast opposition to the
free and unlimited coinage of silver. No
measure to that end could be considered
which was without th<- support of the lead
ing commercial countrie- of the world.
However firmly Republican legislation
may B<<-m to have s-cured the country
against tho peril of case and discredited
currency, th* lection of i Democratic
I‘resident could r i fall to Impair the
country’s credit and to bring once more
into question the Intention of the American
people to maintain upon the gold standard
the parity ol their money circulation. The
Democratic party must be convinced that
the American people will never tolerate
the Ch:.ago platform.

Sliippiuk and Pension*.
Our present tlepender. e upon foreign

arrying is a great lo?.? to the industry
of this country. I: is also a serious clanger
to our trade for its sudden withdrawal
in the event of a European war would
seriously cripple our expanding foreign
commerce. The national :* fense and na
val efficiency of thi? country, moreover,
supply a compelling reason for the legis
lation which will enable us to recover our
former place among the trade carrying
fleets of the world.
The pension laws should be liberal and
should be liberally administered and pref
erence should given wl.erever practi

public service to soldiers and sailors and
to their widow’s and orphans.

of (he civil service. The administration
has acted wisely in its effort to secure for
public service in Cuba. Porto Rico. Ha

Our Foreign \ffnirx.
The American government must protect
the person and property of every citizen
wherever they are wrongfully violated or
placed in peril.
President McKinley has conducted the
foreign affairs of the United States with
distinguished credit to the American peo
ple. In releasing us from the vexatious
conditions of a European alliance for the
government of Samoa, his course is es
pecially to be commended. By securing
to our undivided control, the most im
portant island of the Samoan group, and
the best labor in the Southern Pacific,
every American interest has been safe
guarded .
We commend the part taken by our gov
ernment in the Peace Conference at The

Hague Convention were wisely regarded

Cnlm and the Philippine*.
In accepting by the treaty of Par 9 the
just responsibility of our victories in the
Spanish War, the President and the Sen
ate won the undoubted approval of the
American people. No other course was
possible thaVi to destroy Spain’s sovereign
ty throughout the Western Indies and in
the Philippine Islands. That course cre
ated our responsibility before the -rorld
and with the unorganized population
whom our intervention had freed from
Spain, to provide for the matntenan e
of law and order, and for the eatabl'sh
mer.t of good government and for the
performance of international obHjradons.
Our autohrity could not be less than our
responsibility and wherever sovereign
rights were extended it became the high
duty of the government to maintain it*
authority, to put down armed insurre -
tion and to confer the bl<s?-.ftjrf of lib
erty and civilization upon all the re.-cu and
peoples. The largest measure cf self
government were assured ln the same
voice by which war was declared and to
the letter this pledge shall be performed.

Call of the State*.
Senator Foraker of Ohio was in the cen
ter of the main aisle with his hand raised
for recognition.
“I was about to move to adjourn, Mr.
Chairman." said he. “but I withhold that
motion until tha call of states can be
called.”
The call was begun then, each of the
well-known and prominent men as their
names were announced being greeted with
applause.
When former Senator Quay was an
nounced as the choice of the Pennsylvania
as a member of the National
Committee half the delegates and hun
dreds of the spectators were on their feet
in an instant cheering as if mad.
For the first time in the history of Amer
ican politics. Hawaii was called on tho
roil of a national convention. When tho
newly acquired territory was called by
Assistant Secretary Malloy. Col. Samuel
Parker rose and made his announcement
in a full resonant voice. He was received
with tremendous applause. After the ap

prevailed without dissent, and at 3:13 p.

TEXAS DELEG ATES FOUGHT. ,
Lively Time* Before the Committee
on Cre,lentl*l.
Philadelphia, June 20.—The Committee
on Credentials, after an all-night session,
adjourned at 6 am., having completed
all its business.
A lively fist fight between two Texas
delegates occurred at 4:30 o'clock, jus
after the committee had listened to argu
ments from contesting delegates in that
state.
As the delegates were leaving the com
mittee room, W. H. Love, a delegate from
McKinney, Tex., accused Walter Burns
of having made statements In the commit
tee room which were not true. Burns de
nied that he had made any such state
ments, and Love called him a liar. Burns
promptly planted his fist in Love's face
with a violence that would have laid Love
on the floor had not some bystanders
caught him. Burns, after striking the
blow, stood quietly watching Love, who
was making desperate efforts to break
away from the men who were holding
him. love had a knife partially drawn
from his pocket.
“I'm through.’* said Burns, "unless he
starts it again.”
love was finally hustled tdown the
stairs and taken away by his friends.
Immediately after this row two negro
delegates liegan to make violent threats
and warlike demonstrations at each other.
This trouble also Involved a question of
veracity. They were dragged apart with
out difficulty.
In the Tennessee contest, the Brownlow
people won a clean victory over the
Kvans faction, the oommtltee confirming
their claim to seats In the convention.
The Texas delegation presented eleven
cont- sts —turn among the delegateg-at
jarg ■ and nine in the first nine districts,
•l ntestants were followers rf E. H.
It Green and opposed the delegation al

B Hawlc y of Galveston. The issue was
isistrout to the Green people, who not
o ly lost their contests, hut had one man
supplanted by a Hawley follower ln the
Fourth District. Two Hawley delegates
w re given the seats from the Sixth Dis
til t. no del gates previously having been
admitted to the convention.
In tho second Virginia District the con
i sts brought hy Harry Libby and Alvnh
Martin against George E. Bowden and
vv. S. Holland proved a failure, the
i laims of the Bowden delegates being
confirmed by the committee.

for Dolliver, and the balan-e, which com
prises about two-thirds cf the delegation,

president.
Kentucky—Gov. Bradley of Kent ck

aspiration and the vote of the s> a e wil

Texas—The fight in the Texas delega
tion for national committeeman was set
tled this evening by the election of R. B.
Hawley of Galveston. E. H. R. Gre* n
will be a candidate for re-election to tho
chairmanship of the Republican State
Executive Committee. The Texans will
support Roosevelt for Vice President.
Georgia—M. B. Morton, one of the del
egates from Georgia, paid to-night, that
the action of his delegation on the vice
presidential question would be largely in
fluenced by the action on the Quay res
olution of the states having candidates.
’ll would be unjust to the Southern
states.” said Morton, ‘‘to punish (hem
for conditions over Which they have no
control.”
North Carolina—The North Carolina
delegation came instructed for Senator
Pritchard, and Delegate James E. Boyd
said to-night that no o'her candidate hid
been considerfd. The res lutUn presentel
to the convention to-day by Senator Quay
has aroused considerable indignation
among the delegates and Sena or Prit n
ard la prepared to make a stiff fight in
opposition to it. Should the resolution be
adopted the state will lose two delegate.
Florida: Delega e J. F. Horr said to
night that Florida had no choice for Vice
President. "We will vote with the admin
istration.” he said.
Tennessee—The Tennessee delegates
held a protracted session this evening, b ;<
beyond voting against the Quay amend
ments to the rules, nothing was don<‘.
The chairman of the delegation, J. G.
Gibson, said that all things being equal,
the South would prefer a Western man
for Vice President. However, he added.
Tennessee would cordially support any
candidate acceptable to the administra
tion.
Virginia—Virginia’s first choice for Vic?
President is Senator Scott of West Vir
ginia. second choice Dolliver. but the del
egation realizes that neither of their fav
orites Is now in the race. It is under
stood that the delegation will swing into
line for Roosevelt, if his expected
strength develops.

ground that, having been convicted of a

in Phoenix Park, Dublin, in 1882, they can

based, the solicitor of the treasury says:
*T do not think ihe heinous crime in
which Fitzharris and Mullet participated,
and for which they were found guilty. < in

and therefore discriminated from the or

der.”
The men will be deported on a vessel

ASSOCIATED PRESS’ ANSWER.
Positive §tand Taken in the Eve
ning Journal Ca*e.
Springfield. 111.. June 20.—1n the Supreme
Court to-day the Associated Press filed an
answer to the petition for a mandamus by
the New York Evening Journal. The an
wer touches practically the same points
as that tiled yesterday to the petition of
the Denver, Col., Post.
The answer recites that the officer* of
the corporation are powerless to furnish
the service applied for, because under con
tract with the other New' York papers
unanimous consent is necessary and the
Express Publishing Company, which pub
lish the New York World, refuses to give
its permission.
The answer recites that William R.
Hearst owns a ■ mtrolling interest in the
Star (evening publication) and the Journal
Scar Is a mem
ber of the Associated Press, and that, a*
jeh member, voted it eight shares of
stock at the meeting last month against
the adoption of a motion providing that
the corporation should furnish service to
all persons making application.
The answer denies that an
was made by the Journal for service until
May 17. and ch arges that the petition '•
not filed in gool faith, but to * mbarr-i8
the Associate 1 Press ar.d to fu ther the
interests of the petitioner in its relations
with anew corporation in New York as
a competitor of the Press ir. Illinois.
Objection is mode that if a writ.is grant*
ed the contracts with the other newspa
pers will be violated and the proprietor*
will be released and the Associated Pres*
will be liable in damages. To grant the
writ, it is claimed, would be a violation
of section 10. article 1. Constitution of tha
United States the fourteenth amevid
ment of the constitution.
The answer slates that issuing the writ
would involve the rights of the N w York
World. New' York Evening Post and New
York St i us 7a itung under contracts; that
they should have been made parties to
the proceeding because of that fact. The
Associated Press relies upon the failure
lo make these papers parties to the peti
tion as a further defense to entry of
judgment. ,
