Much complaint is heard of scorch ing by automobile owners on the streets of the city, resulting in nar row escapes for vehicles and pedes trians, and causing runaway acci dents. There are some autonuobilists who grow reckless to the point where they are a public menace when they turn into the streets with their machines. They speed around corners, never caring whether they are on the right side of the street or not, and seem to think it a huge joke when they brush against a buggy or cause a horse to try to climb a telegraph pole. There is a speed limit for automo biles, and there should be a means of forcing owners to operate with rea sonable diligence while running through the streets of the city. There should be an ordinance passed by the city council requiring the numbering of every machine whose owner is a resident of the city. Thus it would not be such a difficult matter to find the offender. Now when he takes a wheel off he scoots away without leaving his name. With a number on his machine he could be traced. Then more care would be ex ercised in the running of the choo ehoo wagons. THIRTEENTH IS OPENED.

Thla, however, required tmcVing up by an adequate army and navy, and be told what has been done in that line. After summarising the work done by the first McKinley adminis tration and thai done by the present government, be said: "We challenge judgment upon this record of effective performance In legislation, In executh n and In admin istration. The work is not fully done; policies are not completely wrought out; domestic questions still press con tinually for solution; other trusts must be regulated; the tariff may presently receive revision, and if so. should re ceive it at the bands of the friend p.nd not the enemies of the protective system." lie closed with an eloquent tribute to the late President McKinley, de riaring thai bis successor followed id policy; to Senator Ifattha and -to President Roosevelt of uhom be said: "Incapable of deception, be has put tside concealment. It is n ampalgn of bounding words and six -ious pretenses, for our President has told the people with frankness what be believed and what he intended. No people can maintain tree government who do hot in then hearts value the qualities i bkh have mad" the present president of the Catted states conspicuous among the men of bis time as type of noble manhood. Come what may here come what may in November, God grant that those qualities of brave true manhood shall have honor throughout America, shall le held for an example In every home, and that the youth of genera ti'ns to oomc, may grow up to feel that it is better than wealth, or OShCe. or power, to have the honesty. th"5 purity, and the courage of Xfaeodarj Roosevelt." Before adjourning the convention unanimously approved the reonm mendafions of the national committee allowing Porto ltiu two delegates and the Philippines six with two votes. Will VBBH IBM Fair. An invitation from the Ixiuisiana Purchase exposition officials for the delegates and members of the press to visit the world's fair at the conclu sion of the convention was aco pted.

William Iortiuer Pnta Thumb Screws to Henrbmen and Yates la Defeated. Chicago, June 21. Victory in the fight lor the chairmanship of the Illi nois delegation was won by Senator Cullom yesterday after a contest in which the thumbscrews were applied to wavering delegates iy imam Lorinier as holder of the "balance of power" and by the narrow margin of two votes defeat was auniinistereu to Governor Yates. With the contest over the chairman ship settled, the rest of the business was transacted speedily. Harmony prevailed throughout, and when once it was demonstrated who had the ma jority, small as it was, the tourneying ceased. Ti.e slate prepared at the Cullom caucus went through without obsta cles, and the delegates, after dodging a motion instructing them for Con gressman Hitt, prepared to wage a campaign for the lllinoisan by labor ing with the delegations from the sev eral states. The following were chosen: Chairman of delegation Shelby M. Cullom. Honorary H. Deere. Nat tonal vice president Charles committeeman Frank (). Lowden. Permanent organization - William Coleman. Rules and order of business E. C. Perkins Resolutions -Sen. A. J. Hopkins. Credentials - Graeme Stewart. To notify the president - Isaac L. Ell wood. To notify the vice president Ves pasian Warner. Tariff Plank Approved. The tariff plank, which bears the stamp of President Roosevelt's ap proval, and which will probably be adopted by the convention without ma terial change, reads as follows: "Protection, which guards and de velops our industries, is the cardinal policy of the republican part. We in sist upon the maintenance of this prin ciple. Hut we recognize that partic ular tariff schedules are neither sac red nor Immutable. Present duties must be altered (readjusted) when changed conditions and the public in tcres! demand their alteration. But thh; work cannot be safely committed to any other hands than those of the party of protection." New York for Kalibanks. Chicago, June 21.
