Columbus, O., 3Iarch 12. The Re
publican state convention which con
cluded yesterday afternoon its session
of two days was more of a McKiuley
rally than the usual party business as
semMy. It was held two or three
months earlier than usual, in order to
proclaim to the country the sentiment
of IcKinley's state. Not since the in
dorsement of R. B. Hayes for the presi
dency at the Republican state conven
tion in 1876 has there been such a har
monious meeting of Republicans in
Ohio. "When Senator Sherman was in
dorsed for president at the state conven?
tions of 1FS0, lS4 and 1888, there was
hitter contests, and it required consid
erable effort in 1S92 to prevent open op
position in the Ohio state convention to
Harrison for a second term. At that
time Charles Foster was secretary of the
trpasrry and is credited with having
controlloa the convention.

Manderson as a candidate for the presi

and several committees appointed with
the intention of making a vigorous fight
during the coming campaign.
LONG DISTANCE TELEPHONE.
Instances In Which It lias Been Used t
the Beltght of Message Senders.
A good many stories are told of the"
strange uses of" the long distance tele
phone. The day the line was opened to
ifp.Trill, Wis., a Chicago man, hunting
IP 'he northern woods, came into town
gnd learned of the iuaovation. Ho went
into one of the "soundproof" booths
and had himself put into communica
tion with his family. As they had a
telephone in the house, the task was a
Email one. He chatted with his wife,
told her a fish story at which she might
smile without embarrassing him, since
he could not see the signs of incredulity ;
talked with his hoy and girl, aud then
called for Gyp.
Gyp was a setter, a great family pet,
which had been left behind because of
an accident which rendered it lame.
Gyp was called to the telephone, and he
stood on a chair, his fore feet on the
back, and his mistress held the trans
mitter to his ear.
f,Hello, Gyp!" called the master
from Merrill. And the dog in Chicago
pricked up his ears and whined. The
master whistled cheerily, and tho setter
barked directly into the receiver. He
knew his master's voice and the whistle
as vell, and tha master cheered him by
ready laughter at the prompt and eager
reply.
It was worth the 2.50 it cost.
A lady living near Indianapolis, who
had for more than a year been in deli
cate health, was taken to Chresgo early
last winter, where she received surgical
treatment in a hospital. It was iu;jos
sible to tahe her home for he Christmas
celebration, although she had recovered
so mnch that she could walk readily all
over the hospital- She had three beau
tiful children at homo, and the father
prepared a Christmas tree, just as he
had formerly done, only he added a
feature which had never been found
there before. He had the electricians
come in on tho afternoon before Christ
mas and put his residence telephone in
the tree, where it was concealed with
pino needles and tinsel. He arranged
with the long distance people, apprised
his wife of her part in the play, and at
a certain moment in the evening, when
the children, bubbling over with joy at
their presents, still felt a sadness at the
absence of their mother, he clapped the
receiver to the ear of his youngest child,
and the gentle voice cf mamma came
over the wire.
It was their most precious Christmas
present Tacoma Ledger.
A Common Error.
One of the very funniest mistakes that
nine-tenths of the members of congress
make, neither house being excepted, is
to continually speak of a woman who
has lost her husband as a "widow wo
man." Even Mr. Barrett used the term.

Deg Moises, March 12. The Repub
lican state convention held here yester
day was without a doubt the most ' en
thusiastic ever held in the state. The
convention was, from beginniug to end,
an Allison convention. It was manifest
that he was the first and last choice of
the Republicans of Iowa. Daring tho
entire day V proceedings no rtker rame
was suggested. The names of B.aine
and Harrison when mentioned
speakers, were invariably applaudo-l
was a convention of oratory and
It j
en-
thusiasm from beginning to end. It
swept everything hefcro it. There were ;
many dramatic incidents that marked
the progress of the meeting. Aft?r the
resolutions were read by Hfn. Jacob

resolutions, Governor Brake, v. ho was '

tions be unanimously adopted and ac

be given for Allison, the nezt picsident
of the United States.'
Three Cheers and a Tiger.
Almcst before. Chairman Cammings
could open his month to put the ques
tion the vast assembly of delegat-'S and
thousands of visiters in the galleries
arose and gave three cheers and a tiger,
the like of which has never beu-rn been
heard in Iowa. Before the final adjourn
ment there were repeated cal s for
speeches. Congressman Eenderr n re
sponded to his name in a mr.-teriy
speech in which he told the pe pie of
Iowa what the perple of "Washing wn
thought of Senator Aliiscn. General
j. S. Clarkson did not attend the con-
night. It wa; thought there would be
some opposition to liim on account of a
protracted absence from the state, but
he was unanimously elected one of the
delegates at large and received special
personal indorsement in several of the
district caucuses. The mention of Sen?
ator Gear's name in connection with
free sucar was cheered at great length.
The Jo Aa delegates held a meeting at
the Savoy house last night and mapped
out a plan of prcccdure. 2o chairman
has yet been elected. The delegation
will aci as a unit in all matters. It is a
strong and harmonious delegation,every
member of it an Allison man from start
to finish.

BUSHEL CF WHEAT.
I On .fan. I, 1892, the market price of
wheat was !.03,4J per bushel. Granu
lated sugar was men worth 4 cents a
pound. A bnbel of when bought near-
r2
ly 26 pounds of sugar. On Jan. 1,
1896, wheat was worth 69 cents and
sugar 5 cents, a bushel of wheat baying
less than 1 -1 pounds of sugar. Under
McKinley protection tho farm 's bushel
of wheat bought o?cr 12 pounds more
sugar than it did this year under our
Democratic free trade tariff.
Democratic Balcnce Sheet.
The advance statement of our imports
and exports for 18i)5 enables us to pre

In 1S94, with four mouths jf the free
trado tariff bill, we still had a balance
of trade in our favor amounting to
$130,999,175. But with a full year of
"perfidy and dishonor" the whole of this
favorable trade balance has been wiped
out with the exception of a paltry 6,
000,000. 2Jbie that our exports were
practically the same in each year, but
the wiping out has been done by an in
crease of $125,000,000 in our 18S5 im
ports. Congressman Eoire Heard From.
We muss not forget tht all values in
this country are established, and that
on a high tariff basis, aud any legisla
tion tnat tnreatens muo v.uuus is a
perity of tJe nation. It not only creates
distrust aud general denwializaticHi,
but drives men on the downward road
toward bankruptcy. Bet us hope that
the day is near at hand when with rec
iprocity and high tariff we will be able
to build a structure to protection that
will ever stand as a inoiiumcnt to the
intelligence of the people. James R.
Howe, M. C, Kew Yf.rk-
Congressman Tiaja Point.
What we want and must have are ade
quate tariff laws giving protection to
our labor interests and industries, while
affording ample revenue not only to
support the government, hut to reduce
and ultimately extinguish the public
debt. When we once more tread this
path, confidence will he restored at
home and abroad. Business will revive
aud prosperity will return. George W.
