Root in his spwrh as temporary chair
man. His address was a review of
accomplishment of the present a;m-.:i
istratlon and a defeutk' of Republican
policies In general. When that had
been delivered and the various work
ing committees dispatched to .he:r
labors the business rjf the lirst day's
session was csompleted.
AnotJier picture was presented by
the oppnlnK day so different from the
customary convention scene as to at
tract marked attention. It was the
failure of the delegates and spectators
to warm to the spirit of the occasion.
The mention of Preaidont Kooseve'.t
was responded to with hearty, though
net prolonged, applause. The lack ( f
contest eliminated the necessity for
enthusiastic display of feeling and the
mild chwrtng and listless handclap
plng, Which was the prerlng given
Impartially to national figures of the
party, was a!!, prcbfibly, that could be
expected under the cirrtimstances.
The lack of public interest In the
coT.vrntion was eviden ed by the larvre
number cf gpectiitors' sts vacant.
The pictuTsp was oT:e of eix order,
where sprgeant-at-axms and policemen
were not newled.
Roosevelt Pictures in Evidence.
Frcm a decorative point of view the
Coliseum was a succe.-s. Foliage and
palms softened the general color
scheme and formed the sotting for
large engTavdcgs of President Roose
velt used In festooning the national
colors above the fraUfrles and ranging
entirely around the hall. The crown
ing feature cf the decorations is a
painting of the late Senator Hanna,
which hangs directly over the plat
form and ocnrples the most conspicu
ous position In the Coliseum. Some
thing of the magnitude of this painting
may be realized when it Is said that
its surface is as great as the combined
surface of the sixty large pictures of
the president President' Roosevelt,
however, was as prominently shown
to the delegates in a hemic painting
spectacularly unveiled in the chair
man's platform at the conclusion of
Mr. Root's speech, a climax that
brought a prolonged outburst of enthu
siasm. The Incidents which are destined to
live long after the spasmodic demcn
tratlons have been forgotten are Mr.
Root's tribute to President McKinley.
The temporary chairman spoke of tho
late president's administration of
progress, his gentleness of character
and those qualities so beloved by the
nation, and in that connection said,
with feeling, "And with McKlr.ley wo
reme.mher Hanna." A h'ih, almost
oppressive, spread over the 7,000 per
sons present. The speaker had
paused expectantly. As he started
to resume, the full force of the tie
stretched between the greatest polit
ical heroes went home to the dele
gates, A sympathetic wave of ap
plause was carried to every part of tho
great hall. The demonstration was
unlike any that preceded It or tame
after It. An indefinable dignity wan
attached to tho demonstration which
seemed forolfin to a political gather

presidential nomination flourished un

when tho Indiana delegation entered

Mr. FttlrttfinliS and Mr. Ileverldgo, and

given Senator Fairbanks was greater
than was rocelved by any of Uh dis

advancement of other candidacies. No

Ser.aUir ScoU ur.A o'her earl ar-ivals
received their share of uppla ise The
floor filled with delegates so rapidly
that many prominent figures slipped
in unnoticed. Among these was Sen
ator Ixuige. Who Is accredited with
having a more intimate knowledge of
what the convention is doing than any
man. Ilefore the gathering was
railed to order by Henry C. l'ayn
chairman of tho national .-ommtttee,
Senator lodge m'.ved about among
the delegations and his car was
sought frequently by err.bryt r.ic flat
form makers The Massachusetts man
never stopped long enough, however,
to grow intimate. The first speoch at
the convention was by Ser.u'or S'-ott,
who Informally presented. Chairman
Payne with a beautiful gavel P. was
left to Governor Van Sar.t of Minne
sota first to place the president's
tame beforo the convention He
found the occasion In rresen'ing to
he convention a table which had
teen built by the manual tmlning
school connected with the South Min
r.eitpoHs high school The applause
was general, but not long continued,
and In that set a precedent, which
was followed in f -.cceceding demon
strations. Seat Colonial Delegates.
The first day's program of the con
vention was not of a nature to attract
more than ordinary Interest- The
matter of greatest Importance was
the presenting to the convention of
the proposition to admit the delega
tion from the Philippine Islands and
1'orto Rico. Mr. Root asked for a
ruling on the Question of calling tho
names of the new possessions in tho
roll for the namtnr; of members
of the various committees. The con
vention ordered the seating and recog
nition of six delegates from the Phil
ippines with two votes and twe dele
gates from Porto Rico.
StiTtly before the adjournment for
the (lay Senator liepew was recog
nized to deliver to the convention an
Invitation from President Francis and
the directors of the Ixiulslar.B Pur
chase exposition to delegates and
members of the press to visit the fair
at St. Uwls before returning to their
homest. Senator !) pew Ftarted to
read the Invitation from his seat, but
at the demand of delegates and spec
tators he mounted the platform There
he passed the Invitation over to a
clerk to read. When It was concluded
Chairman Root suggested that tho
senator might want to make a few
remarks. The suggestion was accept
ed, and Iti recommending that the In
vitation be accepted, Mr. Oepew said
that the rmocrats are claiming the
credit of galng an empire pacebly.
on the ground that the party, through
Jefferson, had bought the land. Tha
Republicans, he said, had tilled it and
were going to share the harvest. The
Invitation was acrepted.
Fight on Tariff.
The tariff plank agreed upon by
the subcommittee on resolutions de
clares for the "cardinal principles of
protection," and furthir that "the
rate of duty should be the difference
between the cost of production In the
United States and abroad. The rates
of duty should be readjusted only
when conditions have so changed that
the public interest demands It. All
such changes should be made by the
Republican party."
A long paragraph was adopted In
relation to reciprocity after a very'
exciting and protracted contest by a
bare majority. It is an agreement for
"commercial reciprocity, which Is pos
sible or.ly under a protective tariff
and whenever reciprocity arrange
ments can bo perfected without In
Jury to any industry."
The opposition to the reciprocity
plank was led by Mr Plythe cf Iowa,
Representative Dalzcll and Sr.ator
Ilat.sb'ough, while Senator Lodge- and
Senator Foraker persisted In an ef
fort to secure the de laration. More
time was spent on this Issue than all
the remainder of the rlatform ar.d all
opponents only cor.ser.ted to agree
when It appeared that the fight might
be taken Into tho committee on reso
lutions and possibly beforo the con
ventx r.
