The State Convention.
With the largest attendanca in the
hlstorv of the nnrlv the Republican
stato convention convened at Charleston
yesterday and. after the nomination
by acclamation of Albert Dlakoslee
White, of Wood county, for governor,
the convention adjourned- until this
morning at 10 o'clock. So far the fighting
lines have been addressed'to the
audltorshlp, and at last accounts they
were most tensely drawn, and the outcome
at this writing cannot be predict ed
with any certainty. Naturally Ohio
county looks with nervous inLerest on
Mr.-.Tames K. Hall's chances, with tlie
hope that he will be successful.
Senator Elkins, as temporary chairman
of the convention, spoke at length
and with convincing logic on the national
issues that will be paramount in
the coming campaign, while Mr. White,
the nominee for governor, in his speech
of acceptance, dwelt with great thoroughness
on state issues,-calling special
attention to the efforts of the Democ
jutj iu suuven mc wm ui me psopic in
the Mast legislature.
The platform Is a ringing enunciation
of the principles of the Republican party
in the nation, a fair presentment of
what the party has accomplished in rhis
state by the present administration,
and'all of whoso planks will commend
themselves to the approbation of the
Intelligence of the people.
Becoming Alarmed.
The Intelligencer ha* published a list of
Democrats who don't ilk'.-' Kansas City
platform and ticket. Will It now publish
a llKt of Republicans who are ro* it; 'ivo
with Imperialism, the trusts and the platform
dratted by Long and revised by
Qulgg??Register.
We can't say that the Intelligencer
can comply with the Register's request
as to the Republicans who. are not in
accord with the Philadelphia platform
and the ticket. They are so few and
scattered that it is impossible to assemble
them at this moment. What is
troubling the Register Is the marked
loyalty of the Gold Democrats to the
position they took In 1S9G, and which Is
being reiterated with a unanimity that
is somewhat startling to the hopes ot
those Democrats who attended the
Kansas City convention and proclaimed
that all factions of the party were
united. This will not do In the light of
the expressions of opinion of those
Democrats who are opposed to Bryan.
ThA "
*??.- iu; inu 1'ianorin uy yuigg
referred to by the Register, is a nonessential
compared to the earnest ami
honest pronouncements of the KopublU
can convention. The Kansas City platform,
however, was stuffed down the
throats of a most unwilling majority by
a man who dictated every detail of the
proceedings of that convention?the imperialist
of 1-Jncoln, Nebraska.
Tn asking the Intelligencer to point
out Republicans opposed to McKInley,
the Register, no doubt, refers to Senator
Hoar and ex-Sena'.or Edmunds, who
haw certainly expressed themselves
very plainly against the Philippine
policy of the administration. Theso
gentlemen, however, will aupport
McKInley, trusting to tho
party of liberty and progress for a solution
of that situation rather than to tho
mongrel opposition and Bryan with his
10 lo l heresy.
The only Republicans the Intelligencer
knows of who are infatuated with
tho Kansas City ticket are Webster
3>avl?,ex-Congressman Toyyno and Senator
Pettlgrew, all of whom have burned
their bridges, and one especially who
has been a 'Populist for some time?the
pestiferous Pettlgrew,
<-'n the whole the Republicans are
gaining supporters while the Demoor:"-y
I'.i lwslng. With reference to tho
Pillion <1 r Senator Hoar, the most In"unntlal
Republican who com batted the
r-orltlon of the administration towards
<tv' J'^illplpncH, it Is only necesBary to
'I'iMc what he said In a r'jeent speech
Miirshnelcj, Mussaehuuetts, as follows;
i nw'/"" ri"r '"dependent friends ask mo to I
I "import. Mr. Itryan, and claim that 1 atu I
recrcunt to my own principles If I do not
do It, they u?k mo to support the man who
Ih responsible above all othars?I had almost
said above all others put together?
slneo the treaty left the hands of the Executive,
for buying eoverelxnty over that
people, and for declaring that ht-vetfter
they are tc be subject to the control of
the American Congress, whether they like
It or not. Men in great transactions,.and
especially In political transactions, often
deceive themselves as to their own motives.
Rut 1 think I do him no Injustice
when 1 say that he took that course
which brought upon us the War In tho
Philippine Islands, tho destruction of tho
life and health <?f 4.OU0 or *6.000 American
soldiers, anil of probably t<?n times that
number of the p?'oplo of thoso Island*,
simply to keep the question for un ls*uo
In tno coming campaign.
Boer Sympathy(P)
Thoso able and voluminous gentliimen
who railed against the administration
because It refused to precipitate
the country Into a war with England by
Interfering: with tho'fioutli'African war,
and who were so lavish In their hospitality
In entertaining the Boer commissioners
to this country, appear to havo
woefully misused the funds to aid tho
"stricken people In the Transvaal.",
The amount raised by these sympathizers,
who exploited tho Boer commissioners
for political purposes, in
Washington, at whose head was the
effervescent Sulzer, of New York, waa
$1,134 3S. What sum do you atipposa'
was left, after "expenses" were paid, .
to send to the suffering Boers? Just
$1S?
Commenting on this substantial exr '
presslon of sympathy the New York
Times says that "ASM* per cent of the
money collected has been used In an unsuccessful
effort to produce on American
politics an effect harmful to the
administration, nnrl IV, nor runt of It
will?of may?go toward relieving the
sufferings of wounded and hungry
burghers. No wonder the men who
gave the bulk of the money arc angry
about the way it was employed, and no
wonder they demanded a rigid accounting
for every cent of it. Such an accounting
has now been presented by
the treasurer of the fund, and nothing
worse than extravagance has been revealed,
but the anger has not subsided. ,
Of course there are people in this country
who sincerely sympathize with the
Boers, but what they regret in the cx- '
isting South African situation is rather
the necessity than the fact of England's
severity. Much greater in amount was
the insincere sympathy that has been"
expressed in Washington and elsewhere
?the pro-Boerlsm that was really antlMcKinleyism,
anti-imperialism." antiEnglishism.
The proportion of the sincere
sympathy to that which is insln- .
cere was in Washington, it appears, as
V/* is to It is probably about the
same all over the country."
Secretary Hny's Instructions.
The otllclal declaration of Secretary
of State Hay that the United States is
uiwy in Vsiiuiu. to jnuiccL lives anu
individual interests of American, citizens
and Is pronouncedly agalnal the
partition of tho empire by the powers,
will be sad news for those Democratic
papers which have been maintaining that
the government was coveting further
possessions in the Orient. The New
York Herald, which takes a fit of the
rabies whenever "Imperialism" is mentioned.
Is one paper that has be* n predicting
all along that President MdKinley's
only object in sending troops to
China was "to increase his imperial domain."
Several other dyspeptic Bryato
journals have followed the pace set by
the Herald.
In refutation of these claims comes
the circular of instructions sent to
American diplomatic agents in the Chinese
empire by Secretary Hay, which
avows that the-purpose of the United
Stntes is only .to protect American life
and property and preserve our treaty
rights. Secretary Hay's circular closes
with these impressive words:
"It Is, of course, too early to forecast
the means of attaining this last result,
but the policy of the government of the
United States is to s-^ek a solution
which may bring about permanent safety
and peace to China, preserve Chinese
territorial and administrative entity,
protect all rights guaranteed to friendly
powers by treaty and international
law, and safeguard for the world the
principle of equal and impartial trade
with all parts of the Chinese cmp'or?."
It appears that any action taken by
tiie administration for the protection of ,
its citizens abroad and the upholding
of the honor of the nation Js construed
by the Democracy as an encroachment.
on the powers of the government guaranteed
by the constitution. The Bryanltea
have become so nervous of late
that they seem to be without liver or
haart. For the benefit nf theBe timid
persons the Intelligencer quotes from
the Chicago Record, an anti-expansion
journal, which says: "Secretary" Hay's
notillcatlon to the powers that the
United States' co-operation with them
In China must be limited to the protection
of the person* and property of
American citizens cannot be too highly
commended. The present disorder In
China for the most part is due to the
aggressions of European powers upon
the Chinese, Probably but for their
aggressions there would have been no
boxer organization and no anti-foreign
revolt. Unfortunately the Chinese assaults
upon foreigners are unwittingly
directed against Americans as well as
Europeans. Owing to this .fact the
United States government has had to
unite with the European powers In taking
measures to secure the safety of the
persons and property of American citizens.
Secretary Hay's notification to
the European powers amounts to a
warning that America wjjl not aid the
Europeans In coercing the natives (
within Europr-nn spheres nf influent'o
Into subJ'Jctlon to foreign rule.
The American note also conveys in
unmistakable lajiguuga that this government
will look with disfavor, on any
attempt to dismember China. It fur
ther declares In favor of thv Uftclrlno of
"China for the Chlno.se." Evidently the
United States Intends to ln.slHt on tho
maintenance of American and other
treaties with the Chlnopw government
and on Ihn so-called 'open door' policy.
Undoubtedly the position tnUtjn, by
the United StateH will tend to cheek th?
rapacity of the European powers In
China, and at the name time, no far ntf
such a result can he attained,. It will
tend to allay the uneaKlness of the Chinese
people."

HEARTFELT PRAYER.
Mr. Baldwin, of Georgia, Became
Unnecessarily Devout.
Atlanta Journal: An old man in Georgia
named Jack Baldwin,, having lost J
His hat in an old dry well one day,
bitched a rope to a stump and let himself
down. A wicked wag, named Neal,
came along just then, and detaching a
bell from Baldwin's old blind horse,
approached the, well, bell in hand, and
began to tlng-a-llng.
Jack thought the old horse was coming,
and said: "Hang the.old bllnd.fopl;
he's coming this way, sure, and he ain't
got no more sense man to tan in on me c
?whoa, Ball!" 1
The sound came closer. i
"Great Jerusalem!" The old blind fool 1
will be right on top of me in a minute. 1
Whoa Ball, whoa, Ball!" '
Neal kicked a little dirt on Jack's 1
head, and Jack began to pray. *
- "Oh, Lord, have mercy on me?whoa,
Ball?a poor sinner! I'm gone now J
?whoa, Ball, whoa?Our Father, who j
art In?1whoa. Ball, whoa?hallowed be ;
Thy?gee, Ball, gee?What'll- I dw?~

Oh. Lord, if you ever Intend to do any- 1
thing for me?back. Ball, back! Whoa! 1
Thy kingdom come?gee. Ball, gee. Ball 1
?Oh, Lord, you know I was baptized In
Smith's mill dam?whoa, Ball! ho! ho! N
up! murder! whoa!"
Neal could hold In no longer, and *
shouted a laugh which might have been }
heard two miles, which wa3 about as
far as Jack chased him when he got out
of the well. }

She scorned no hypocrisy: she

The "Good Fellow" Girl.
Boston Herald: The "good fellow" girl
Is here. There Is no doubt about that.
She wears short skirts, with hip pockets
In them, heavy yellow shoes and she
says "d?n." She has a mannish stride,
talkes long steps, swings her arms an/i
wears n polka-dot four-ln-hand neck
scarf and a white fedora hat. She talks
horsey, swings a golf club, gets a nutbrown
tan on her arms, and has command
of the entire vocabulary of sport- "
lug talk. She knows nil about men, but
wouldn't know how to hold a baby If (
her life depended on It. I
She does all this to earn the title of j
"good fellow," under the Impression j
that.lt makes her more popular with .
men. She feels that she must allure ^
men from his clubs, and in order to do j
this and enjoy his comradeship she }
must be as neur like him as possible. ,

, HIS BTART IN LITE.
Keep Plugging Away is tho Advice
of a Man Wlio is Now a Millionaire.
New' York Sun: "The point is," said
a mun who Is worth a million or more,
"that no' matter how black things may
look, a man wants to keep plugging
away; he doesn't want to lie down. No
matter how little he may get for his
work, that little-is better than nothing,
and one thing leads to another. If you
are-around among people when things
are happening, why, you are JuBt us
likely to be struck by lightning as anybody
else. ' As a mutter of fact, I got
my own real start In llfo out of tho
poorest job I ever had, as far as pay
was concerned, which I had taken
rather than ait still and do nothing.
"Things had turned about no that I
was out of work. - I waa u. youngster
then o? twenty. . I.wulkcd the town and
went Into ofllccs, and stopped where I
saw work gping on in the Btreet, and
asked lor'something to do, and I anBWered
the advertisements in the nowa-.
papers: und , Anally the beet thing I
could do, apparently, was to take this
lob without any actual pay, the inducement
being'bourd, with a prospect of
advancement. The job was barking
Cor a steamboat at a summer resort,
and the prospect of advancement was to
unlace us doekhnnrt nn Ihn limit. Nnt'n
very profitable job, but I took It. I
hud made it a poit all my life to keep
a-doing, and thought I had bettor do
this than nothing."
"And it wasn't a bad job, by any
moans, so far us simple coinfort was
:oncerned. I got 'enough to eat and
i;od food, and It was outdoor work, and.
L'aay. 1 had good lungs, and it was a
:inch for me to stand on the wharf and
about the name of the boat, and tell
about the round she made, and the attractions;
but it was cieur to ine from
the start that I wan't going to be promoted
to a deckhand. The deckhands
kvere^all husky young fellows, who liked
their work, and they all stuck to it
right through the season, and I stayed
in the wharf; and as far as I could see,
right up to the last day. ail I was going
to get out of it was my board, plus the
general benefit of those months spent in
tne .open air; and then on the last day
that the boat, ran this little thing hapsenefl'that
set me up for life.
"It1"was in September, a windy, blus?
tery fiOrtoof day, not much of a day to
?o sailing in.-and pretty much all the
'oiks had gone from our place, anyway,
ind so 'there were not many people to
jo, and they didn't shos'ethe gangplank
jut .with just ^the elaborate care they
:ommonly displayed?they just ran the
?nd o? It up on the stringpiece, because
t would only stay there a minute for
:he .few.people that were going, and
hat..was enough. Cut with that wfnd
Lhere was a little bit of sea on there,
;he boat rolled a little, and pulled the
;nd of the gangplank of the stringpiece
ui art?ppea a nccie gin, auout eight or
line years old, that was just going
iboutd with lier father.and mother just
or one last sail before they went away.
"Well, now. I jumped into the water
md helped the little girl until some one
rould reach down from the whavf and
jet her. Really, It wasn't anything* to
io. 1 was a strong swimmer and u
jod healthy chap, and it wasn't any
nore for rne ttf pick up that little girl
:han It would have been to pick un a
mndle in the street. But do you know,
he child's parents looked at it dlffer?ntly?
They did, for a fact; they
:hought'il was a fine thing for me to
lo, and of course tht old man wants me
o come and see him when 1 come back
0 the city, which, of course, I do. And,
or a fact, the rest was like what you
end In story books and in'stories in
he newspapers*: He was a good mini,
or sure, and you can bet your bottom
lollar that 1 did the very best that I
cnew how for him;" and that was the
vay I got started.
"Now, there was what you call a
:hance, an opportunity; but 1 never
vould have got' the chance if I hadn't
>een around where something wr.s dong,
would .? That's the point, you
cant to keep plugging away at :?omehlng.
Don't go off in the woods and
le down where anybody won't see you,
3ut keep In the swim!"

Thousands of Homeless Squirrels.
Thirty thousand gray squirrels will
soon be homeless as a result of the action
of the state land board.
Up near Devil's Head Mountain, in
Douglas county, there Is a timbered
tract which has been the home of a
squirrel colony since the advent of the
ivl.lt/. r??nn nml .-.rnvKrwu hnvn
ii sort of superstitious regard for the
urmy of chatterers, and have safely
guarded them from the roving hunter.
Not one has been killed for years. 2t
Is believed more squirrels were never
gathered together in an equal space of
forest.
Recently Christian Runge made application
to the land board for the purchase
of 250,000 feet of timber in this
section, and it was sold for 5200. Before
many months the last trees will be carried
off.?Denver Special.
