O'GORMAN DRAFTS PLATFORM PUIS ill i awaM t It Is Far from Radical and Has the Indorsement of New York Delegates.

(National News Association) BALTIMORE, June 27 Tne New York delegation to the Democratic national convention has adopted a platform for presentation to the resolution committee, and. urged - Senator O'Gorman to seek its adoption. The platform is far from radical, but is built along progressive lines. Senator Francis G. Newlands of the date of Nevada, a member of the resolutions committee, also presented a tentative platform. Most of the planks contained in it are progressive. One plank on the ' race question" calls for the disfranchisement of the negro and asks for laws prohibiting the Immigration of any but white person into the United States. The tentative platform for which Senator O'Gorman will fight contains the following planks: Tariff Reform The federal government has no right to collect or impose tariff duties except, for revenue; demand that the collection be limited to necessities of the government when honestly and economically administered." We favor immediate downward revision. We denounce President Taft for vetoing bills to reduce tarifT on cotton, woolens and chemical schedules." Rights of the Statea "We denounce as usurpation the efforts of our opponents to deprive the states of any of the rights reserved to them and to enlarge and magnify by indirection the power of the federal government." Anti-Trust Law. "We pledge ourselves to the right enforcement of the anti-trust laws. We demand the enforcement of the laws made to prevent and control trusts and combinations. We insist that the anti-trust laws should be enforced on both the civil and criminal sides. Banking Legislation "We oppose the establishment of any central bank and we believe the people of the country could be largely relieved from panics and consequent unemployment by a Democratic revision of our outworn -banking laws, which would create ' a flexible banking system and prevent any small group of financiers or politicians from controlling the banks of the country." - Income Tax "We believe that t$e constitution should be amended so as to place in the hands of congress a rart of revenue system, the power to l'.vy and collect an income tax when necessary, to the end that wealth may bear its proportionate share of the expense of the federal, government." Popular Election of U. S. Senators "We believe that the constitution .rhould be amended so as to provide for the popular election of United States senators by the direct vote of the people." xerra 01 rresmeni we oeueve mat bo our institutions may De preserved from the vaulting ambition of any nan, the. constitution should be amended so as to lengthen the terms of office of the president and vice-president to six years and provide that no citizen should be eliblgle to election for more than one term." At this point the platform calls attention of the public to the accomplishments of the Democratic house of representatives, giving a long list of legislation put through for the benefit of the people. The platform also recommends a parcels post, merchant marine, poBtroads, Inland waterways, civil service law enforcement, legislation to enforce property rights of labor, a pure food law, conservation of natural resources, encouragement in the development of agriculture and a denunciation of the "political profligate waste" of moneys, "wrung from the people by the Republican party."

WOODROW GRAHAM TO SPEAK The Rev. Thomas J. Graham, pastor of the First Presbyterian church of this city, will be one of the principal speakers at the meeting to be held at Mont Lawn, near New Castle, by the Sunday schools of Henry county on July 4th. But two speakers have been secured so far, State Superintendent Burney and the Rev. Graham. DELEGATES ATTEND A NOON LUNCHEON Before an audience of a hundred and fifty business and professional men of Richmond, W. C. Pearce spoke at the Y. M. C. A. noonday luncheon on the "Relation of Business to Religion." "I make the statement that if rChristian ideals and character were to be wiped out that there is not a business in America that could stand twenty-four hours. "Why is it that the great businesses do not exist in savage Africa? The trade must first be Christianized. "Is It any wonder that a poker player on the ocean liner with FredB. Smith, the evangelist, stated that he supported three missionaries in his lumber holdings in India to protect his Interests?" Pearce then developed his theme, showing why business men should support religious work. EAGLES' INITIATION Five candidates were given the third degree in the Wayne Aerie of Eagles last evening. An exceptionally large number of Eagles attended the meeting. BOGUS ANCESTORS. A Paying Business' In England That Thrives Upon Snobbery. The most tragic Torm of snobbery in a country place Is that which concerns itself with the tracing of . a pedigree. In my travels I came upon a man who confessed that he had made thousands of pounds out of the conceit and snobbishness of people living in country places, and especially people who happened to possess names of a high Bounding character. His method of work was'' simple, and only the ultra snob could be taken in by it He would glance through a local directory and select a few names of the Fitz-Blank style. A short visit to the town would help him to determine the character of the person a snob Is easily distinguished, and he would return to his place and write that he had come into the possession of a portrait which he had every reason to believe was that of an ancestor of Mr. FitzBlank. There would be a few quaint hieroglyphics on the back of the canvas showing that the original was a native of the town In which Mr. Fiti-Blank was residing. In nine cases out of ten that picture sold at a price which meant a profit of 100 per cent to the dealer after he had paid the little Italian artist, who turned out the pictures by the dozen. In many a country house today there is a fine old full length portrait of an ancestor which waa painted In a murky studio somewhere down Whitechapel way. Margaret Ballantyne In London Saturday Journal, High Quality Tea. A verdict in favor of high quality tea as a harmless drink is given by the London Lancet. It is pointed out that when caffeine and tannin are in a state t combination the harmful astringent qualities of the tannin disappear and the bitter taste of free caffeine is not perceptible. Teas of hjgh quality yield, as a rule, a simple infusion of caffeine tannate. not of caffeine or of tannin, and such teas must be regarded as the most desirable from a physiological point of view. Excessive Infusion, it is stated, will spoil a good tea. but even a short Infusion of a bad tea may be as objectionable aa an excessive Infusion of good tea. On physiological grounds, therefore, the consumer of high quality teas runs less risk of digestive disturbances proTided the tea is made properly.

A MOTHER SEEKING CUSTOOYJDF CHILD Mrs. Rable Alleges Family Caring for Baby Refuse To Surrender It.

Habeas corpus proceedings may be instituted in the Wayne circuit court by Mrs. Anna Rable, in the attempt to recover possession of her sevenweeks' old babe, which is now in the possession of a family by the name of Newell, North A street. The case is very singular inasmuch as the mother of the child, worried Iiost frantic and on the verge of nervous prostration, is unable, she declares, to secure her baby from the family to whom she temporarily intrusted the custory of the infant. Mrs. Rable came to this city the first part of the week, her husband, it is alleged, having deserted her at Toledo. She placed the baby in the care of the Newells, with the mutual undrstanding that as soon as she had found employment the child was to be returned to her. The mother secured a room on North Ninth street. She failed to obtain work on the first day, and this with other disappointments and the worrying over her child caused her to wulk past the Newell home Monday evening, believing that she probably would get a glimpse of the babe, through the window. Her hope was not realiied and knocking at the door declared hat she had decided to take the child with her. The Newells refused to give her the babe, she 6ays, and she was ordered from the house. She returned to her rooming house and it was necessary to call a physicial for her. Yesterday the Newells made an attempt to adopt the child, petitioning Judge Fox. The court, however, decided that he could not grant the petition and advised the Newells to keep tho child until the mother can properly care for it. Today Mrs. Rable talked with Attorney Byram Robbins, who advised her to go to the Newell home again and make another request for the custody of the babe. She did so but again was ordered from the place. Mr. Robbins says proceedings may be instituted in. the circuit court to obtain possession of the child. Mrs. Rable says she has arranged to have the child placed in a Catholic institution in Cincinnati. Time. We all have time enough to learn if we have wisdom enough to use the fragments of our time.

It was a distinct fchock to the delegates today when Mrs. Mary Wood, chairman of the bureau of information disclosed the fact that girls were employed by the Federation itslf at a wage of $1 per day. A leading question now being discussed by the members before the federation is that of financing the organization. KELLY TO PREACH President Robert L.
