GREAT PARTY

IS BEYOND AID Reactionary Element of the Republican Party Has Amputated Its Power, Making It Useless Now. DEFEAT FAILS TO DAUNT WESTERNERS iTheirs Is the Spirit of Unrest and They Will Not Accept the D'ctates of the National Convention. BY CARL MOTE. CHICAGO, 111., June 22. Patronage tend public office have again preserved the meaningless traditions of a political party that goes before the country in a presidential campaign with onjjy traditions to commend it to the repect and confidence of the people. '( One bleak November day, yet to tcome, will disclose how far this country is willing to accept obsolete traditions in lieu of principles; angle-worm headers in lieu of men. As this is being written, two different parades, each headed by a brass jband and each made up largely of sons :of the Great West are meeting on the istreet below my window. The banners ithey carry are significant: "We Want ITeddy;"; "Fight 'Em"; "We Refuse to Submit the Title of Stolen Property ito the Thief Who Took It." , The last are the words of Gov. JohnIson, of California, whose fervency thrilled the Republican national contention Friday and whose words with jthose of Francis J. Heney, nemesis of lAbe Reuf, were the saving incidents of b day otherwise lost. , A Spirit of Unrest. The undaunted spirit of these men is tall-potent whether Tare is renominated r not. It is all-potent because it is the spirit of unrest, vox populi, vox dei. , Patronage has saved the forms of the Republican party because it has made serfs of postmasters, judges, jprovincial governors and holders of public sinecures. This serfdom has pre- . served the forms and destroyed the substance of a once great party. Four men appeared before the Republican national convention Friday, iall of more or less repute throughout the country. One was Elihu Roott (Chairman of the convention, agent at the corporations and "trust me" tool ot Special Privilege. Another was Seireno E. Payne of New York, ex-chair-(man of the ways and means commitj tee of the house of representatives, (Purveyor of tariff privileges and caterer to Big Business. The other two iinen were those heretofore named,

WOUNDED

(Gov. Johnson and Francis J. Heney. Laid Bare the Theft. Those who believe in Johnson and (lleney heard them with eagerness. (They cheered at times, not because .Johnson and. Heney told them what they did not know, but because Johneon and Heney laid bare the infamous theft of two California delegates with (Consummate clearness and skill. Public office has restrained two men jat least from acting independently in I the national convention. They are Gov. I Deneen and Lawrence Y. Sherman. jDeneen is the Republican nominee for governor of Illinois and Sherman is 'the Republican nominee for United 1 States senator. They refused to follow 'Colonel Roosevelt because it would sacrifice their own interests. Senator l Borah of Idaho, it is said, left the Republican party in 1896 and that "bolt" (has taught him a lesson, the Taft men I say. Governor Hadley will do almost anything but bolt because Hadley has things at stake in Missouri. Perhaps they are right after all. Perhaps the service he will perform can better be performed without a bolt. What Bryan Says. There is time yet. As was said Friday by William Jennings Bryan, "if the ex-president's followers bolt and nominate him, he can not tell whether to accept or not, until after the regular convention acts, and even then he will likely be influenced b the action i of the Democratic national convention. , i He may be put in the attitude, therefore, of refusing to lead a bolt after he has encouraged it. If the Democrats are guilty of the criminal folly of nominating a reactionary, they will supply Mr. Roosevelt with the one thing needful, in case he becomes an independent candidate, namely, an issue, and with i two reactionaries running for presij dent, he might win and thus intrench - himself in power." The Taft delegates In" the Republit can national convention can ignore j him when nominations are made or j they can probably make him the nomiJnee. The . compromise arrangement did not seem to develop with expectS ed precision for the simple reason Ithat no progressive with good stand

ing appears to be willing to take the Job. Probably 200 Roosevelt ; delegates will sit mute in their seats Saturday and be reported as not voting. They do not expect to support Taft and they do not want to brand themselves as bolters by participating in the convention and joining the third party movement later. Even the Illinois delegation has agreed to sit silent when the roll is called. Thomas W. Lawson, who created sensation a few - years ago with his "Frenzied Finance," in a quarter-page advertisement in local papers Friday called upon Mr. Bryan to throw his hat in the ring before going to Baltimore to wage war on Alton B. Parker, chief stalker for the invisible empire and choice of the Democratic national committee for temporary chairman. Bryan has been poking fun at the Roosevelt Republicans but the worm has turned. He may find a fight against an air-tight organization in his own party a very serious matter. In fact, Bryan already has encountered the steam roller. According to Bryan, Parker is "most conspicuously identified with the reactionary element of the party." If tjie Democratic national convention nominates a reactionary, and it may do this very thing on the assumption that anyone can beat Taft and that a reactionary will hold the party together and draw unto the exchequer the tainted wealth of the corporations, then the third party and Theodore Roosevelt may win as Bryan predicts. Bryan, Hadley, . Johnson, Stubbs, Roosevelt and Wilson would be a great combination with which to repudiate. The reactionary proceedings of both parties, if the Democratic convention is actually that.

An Unruffled Statesman. In the early days when the people sent their wisest men to tnske the public laws, a man of peculiar traits, bat of sterling worth, was sent to the Mas. sachosetts legislature from the town of Douglas. He wore an old fashioned farmer's frock, which was sadly out of place In the legislative hall, where some of the fastidious statesmen from Boston and other cities Tied with each other in the correctness of their attire. Soon after the arrival of the Douglas man one of the Boston representatives, seeking an opportunity to have fun at his expense, called ont to him, -Dave they no smarter men than yon to send to the legislature from yonr district? The man from Douglas smiled Innocently as he replied. "There's a heap of smarter men up my way. but the mischief of It Is they hain't got no clothes good enough to wear down here I' Boston Herald.

The bass arrived here yesterday afternoon and last evening members of the association assisted In placing them in the streams. They were placed in the Middlesfork. Greensfork and Nolansfork creeks. The protective association secured the bass through Finly H. Gray, Sixth District congressman. The bass are districted by the government. An officer of the association stated today that by next month 10,000 fish, of the association's hatching will be placed in the county streams. The fish have been hatched at the association's pond, west of the city. "However, no fish will be placed in streams, where the farmers do not guarantee them protection from seiners and dynamiters," the official declared. Irving Would Have to Hustle.

SPRING CLEANING IS NOW FINISHED j Street Commissioner Genu has filed I his report of yie street and alley cleaning for the spring of this year.j Sixty-five miles of improved streets.! and over forty-four miles ot improved' alleys were given a thorough eleatdng ' at an expense ot about $3,000 to the' city. Last year the cleaning cost 14,700, but the cost of hiring teams, this year was S4S6 more than that of ( last year. Genn reported that a large , percentage of this cost to the tax payers could be avoided if property own--' ers would take better care of their' premises, and burn part ot the rubbish thrown into the alleys, instead of

throwing out a large quantity for tho city to haul away at a heavy expense. Her First Thought, Ella What a dreamer she Is! Stella I should say so!
