Frank Black, of New York, fell the honor of placing Theodore Roosevelt In nomination for president at the Re publican convention today. Speaker Cannon took Mr. Black to the front of the platform and characteristically in troduced .him to the audience. Mr. Black entertained his audience by a discussion of party principles. He compared Republican standards with those of other parties.- With his keen sense of humor and the deep thought displayed in his address, the orator fascinated always and frequently elec trified his listeners. He led up to the nomination gradually by defining the type of man best suited for the party color bearer. CALLS ATTENTION TO T. ROOSEVELT As he confronted the convention Gov. Black presented a striking fig ure. He is tall and gaunt. His hair, originally dark brown, is ..liberally sprinkled with gray. His dark eyes shone out brightly from beneath close ly overhanging eyebrows. Gov. Black's voice, though not heavy, carried well and increased in volume as he got fair ly under way. His epigrams provoked laughter and the sharply turned sen tences for which he is noted never failed to raise a ripple of appreciative applause. He said: Mr. President, and Gentlemen of the Convention: We are here to inaug urate a campaign which seems al ready to be nearly closed. So wise ly have the people sowed and watch ed and tended, there seems little now to do but to measure up the grain. They are ranging themselves not for bat tle but for harvest. In one column reach ing from the Maine woods to Puget sound are those people and those states which have stood so long together that when great emergencies arise the nation turns instinctively to them.

Stakel berg is retiring northward from Kai ping, but is expected to make an other stand at Taschichaio, where the next severe fight probably will take place. The vanguards of the two armies are now within 2,000 feet of each other. - ; ? Russian Arsenals Busy Special Cable to The Globe ST. PETERSBURG, June 23.—Rus sian arsenals are working night and day on quick firing field guns. The output is barely sixty per month. It Is practically .certain, that Kuropatkin has only 350 modern guns. jj This infe riority in artillery gives additional rea son for believing the Russian com mander will play a waiting game for many months. .

"yX: The enemy has neither guns nor am munition, and if they had they would use them on each other. Destitute of the weapons of effective warfare, the only evidence of -approaching battle is in the tone and number of their bulletins. There is discord among, the generals; discord among the " soldiers." Each would fight* in his own way, but before assaulting his Republican adversaries he would first de stroy his own comrades in the adjoining tents. Each believes 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 substituted for the gun. Whatever fatalities may occur? how ever, among the discordant hosts now moving on St. Louis, no harm will come this fall to the American v people. There will be no opposition sufficient to < raise a conflict. There will be hardly enough for competition. Says Democrats Have No Plans There are no Democratic plans for the •conduct'of the all' campaign. % Their zeal Is chiefly centered . in; discussion as to what Thomas Jefferson would do if he were living.^ He is not living, and but few of his descendants are among the Demo cratic remnants of today. Whatever of patriotism or wisdom emanated, from that distinguished "man is now represented in this convention. ' It is a sad day for, any. party when its only means of solving living issues is by guessing at the possible attitude of a statesman who is dead. This condition leaves 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 gas - ballast. ~ but it will never steer the ship. When all the people have forgotten will dawn a olden era for this new Democracy. But the country is not ready yet to place a party In the lead whose most expressive MISS HERREID WILL CHRISTEN- A CRUISER WASHINGTON, D. C., June 23.— Grace Herreid, 'daughter of Gov.

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 campaign uttering the language of the mourner. "Equality of Men" There is j one fundamental plank, how ever, 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 Re publican party would make every man as high as the best. But the Democratic course * will provoke no outside interfer ence now, for the Republican motto is that of the great commander, "never in terrupt the enemy while he. is making a mistake." vXy In politics, as in other fields, the most impressive arguments spring from con trast. Never has there been a more striking example of unity than is now afforded by this assemblage. There are many new names in these* days, but the Republican party needs no new title. It stands now where it stood at the beginning. The name of the Re publican party stands over -every door where a . righteous cause was born. Its members have gathered around every movement, no matter how weak, ;: if in spired by high resolve. Its flag for • more than fifty years has been the sign of hope on every spot where liberty was the word. That party needs no new name or platform to designate its purposes. It. is now as it has been, equipped, militant and in motion. - y - Opportunities and Dangers The public mind is awake both to ■its' opportunities and its dangers.' Nowhere in the world, in any era, did citizenship mean more than it means today in Amer ica. Men of courage and sturdy char- * acter are ': ranging themselves together with a unanimity seldom seen. There is no excuse for groping in the dark, for the light is plain .to him who will but raise his eyes.

Its most matchless orators and some lesser satellites were seen on the stage, and some of them were even heard, but most of them were not. -*Xy.y ■ X ' ■'■'.-'. ... "The man . who does think," "The ranchero hero of Santiago, who never * | sounded a retreat ' and never will." These were only a few of the endearing terms applied to the renom inated president. Fairbanks was nomi nated, too, but the speeches that nomi nated him dwelt on the glory of the United States, the pride of the Repub lican party 'and the shortcomings of ,the I Democracy before they stopped to allude to the personality of the nomi nee. yy * X There was no enthusiasm for Fair banks, but the delegates : did do him the courtesy to call on him for a speech after his nomination, and found that he had slunk from the hall in that same noiseless where-is-he-now fashion that has characterized his every movement since ?he.„ came to Chicago except his thrice triumphal entry, into the hall of the convention amid the plaudits of his faithful I rooters. BLACK STARTS THE RHETORICAL BALL If President Roosevelt did personally pick the h men to make the speeches nominating him, -.he did one thing to sustain the contention so. often raised today that he follows the popular favor, for the men who spoke in his behalf were in'? the main orators worthy a place any forum in the world. First • came New \ York's former gov- | PRICE TWO CENTS frvtSft™ ernor, Black, conservative in his ges tures as the forces that move the state he represents, but with a clear, pene trating voice that of its own force car ried to the farthest limits of the hall almost : every 1 word of the magnificent oration nominating Roosevelt. In sim ple; English, smoothly spoken. Black carried convict ton from his first com ments on the greatness of the Ameri can people, that the man who should be their chieftain is i the man who now is, and when he} was through the fact that they all believed It as a basic part of the creed was manifest from the demonstration^ which lasted twenty minutes. Amid waving flags,? the totem poles of the Alaskans and the golden banner of California raced up and down the aisles with a heroic charcoal portrait of the president, which was opportune ly brought in. Enthusiastic delegates carried children to the r stage to wave "Old Glory," and a Union veteran from Willow.- Springs, Mo., carried to Chair man Cannon a tattered -flag' that had been in every Republican national con vention since ? the Chicago event of 1860. The announcement of its his tory continued the uproar another five minutes, till a young man with a meg aphone tried to lead the chorus from the stage, and the delegates began' to wonder if the demonstration was really as spontaneous" as they thought. Then came Senator- Beveridge. Al ways interesting, the senator from In diana was especially eloquent in his pronouncement of the reasons why In diana was for Roosevelt. More flowery than Black, and with a voice' more pleasing in its fullness, he was fully as popular, but he dwelt too long after making clear his seconding of the nom ination? and talked within a minute as long as had Black.

Scarcely^ had she uttered the words when the weapon was discharged? the ball entering Mrs. Ownesby's forehead and causing in stant death.

Where the thousands had heard parts of the other -speeches, everyone in that vast hall heard every line and every word - of this new Knight from the Pacific. A "Western giant, grown gray on the public platform, he had not finished his first sentence when the convention was thrown into a spasm by a shrill appeal from the far corner of the southern gallery, "Not so loud!" ? Knights huge voice filled every corner of the hall and rippled back in echoes to the stage, but in spite of its resonance, it had not a grating note. X Knight was the man the crowd was ' talking about when it left the hall, and he gave them things to talk about as well as to listen to. Where the courtly Beveridge had brushed by the labor problem with the general proposition that the Republican party had been first to teach the laboring man his •quality, and equality, Knight threw the gage right into the field of battle by a passing allusion to Uncle Sam's dig ging of the Panama canal. "President Roosevelt promised every man a job," shouted Knight, "and Uncle v Sam y wanted this job and Uncle Sam be longs to the Union." It was a minute before the audience tumbled to Knight's double meaning, and then there was an outburst of enthusiasm? "He hypnotizes obstacles," was another characterization of the president that found great favor with Knight's hear ers. ....- -'■ MINNESOTA VOICE IS SOON DROWNED OUT Fourth, and the only frost of the lot, was Harry Stilwell Edwards, of Georgia, who could not be heard a hun dred feet away.
