pointment of a sergeant-at-arms and E. M. Smith, of Alabama, was appointed. The convention approved the report of a special committee naming Denver as the place for the next meeting, and designated the date as the second Wednesday in May. Another long and excited debate was occasioned by a resolution submitted by Delegate Campbell, of New York, favoring such amendment to the immigration laws as would deny admission to all intending settlers who could not read a page of the English lan- I guage. Finally amid considerable confusion the resolution was ifidefinitely postponed. The convention approved the woman’s suffrage plank of the platform by 375 to 185. Planks opposing public gambling and favoring one-term presi- i dency were approved by a majority vote. The platform as reported was as follows: “We, the representatives of the republican ' league clubs of the United States in national convention assembled, reaffirm devotion to the principles of the republican party as enunciated at the national republican convention in 1892. We point with pride to the passage of a general law for the safety of life and limb of railroad employes, upon recommendation of President Harrison, by a republican congress, and in conformity with the expressed pledge Of the national republican convention. We declare that we are in hearty sympathy with every legteresffs of the wage-earners and tend to equalize '“Conditions and harmonize the relations between labor and capital, always regarding the m«ral and material welfare of the great body of the people as the primary 1 object to be attained, and recommend as one of I the most efficient means to attain this end the ' establishment of a system of arbitration for the adjustment of differences arising between labor and capital. “We declare our faith in genuine secret ballot laws, fortified by efficient acts for the suppression of corrupt practices In elections. We demand the enforcement of existing laws by ths duly instituted officers of the law. and demand the abolition of the system of private armed forces represented by the Pinkerton and like detective agencies. “We demand the suppression of all public gambling, whether In food products or by means of lottery tickets. We heartily urge an amendment to the constitution making the president ineligible to a second successive term. We recommend (o the favorable consideration of the republican clubs of the United States as a matter of education the question of granting to the women of the state and nation the right to vote at all elections on the same terms and conditions as male citizens. “The foreign policy of lienjamin Harrison and James G. Blaine deserves and receives the commendation of all Americans who believe in preserving the rights and - dignity of the United States and In extending the scope of its influence In accordance with that policy we reaffirm our determination to encourage the reenforcement of the Monroe doctrine, not only as it applies to North and South America, but also to those islands In the Atlantic and Pacific which are or may become necessary to the protection of our coast line and our trade. When the American flag covers American Interests and American honor it must never be lowered.” The platform was adopted, section by section, together with the following: “Whereas, The democratic party for the first time In thirty-two years has succeeded to power, both executive and legislative departments of the government, we now direct attention to the fact that it should either give the people a fair trial of the policies advocated in its national platform or admit that it gained supremacy by gross misrepresentation and hypocrisy.” Supplementary Resolutions. The following supplementary resolutions were reported favorably from the committee on resolutions and adopted: “Since the last national assemblage of republicans Ahe patriotic citizens throughout the land have met an irreparable loss in tha deaths of R. B. Hayes and James B. Blaine. “Resolved, That a committee of nine be appointed by the president to investigate and report annually the condition of the republican party in <he southern states. That the republican party is the party of the people and the purposes of its creation were the destruction of slavery and the greatest possible expansion of human liberty within the land. It knows no sect •f creed. Therefore the exclusion of any person from any republican club or organization on account ot his religious belief merits the severest condemnation of this league.” The league then adjourned to meet in Denver next May. ’

And very early too. That’s what any one should be in treating oneself for inaction of the kidneys and bladder. The diuretic which experience indicates as supplying the requisite stimulation to the organs without exciting them, is Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters.

For fever and ague, dyspepsia, constipation, rheumatism and nerve debility, also, use the Bitters. “I'm out for the dust,” said the parlor carpet as it swung over the clothesline.
