I'liH.AitKMMUA, Juno 2Ut. Presi
dent Melvinley was unanimously re
nominated for president of the United
States by the republican national con
vention at 1:48 p.m., and an hour and
ten minutes later Governor lheoilore
Itnosevtlt of New York was unani
mously selected to stand beside him
in the coming battle.
The scenes attending the selections
were tumultuous. Sucb unanimous
demonstrations in honor of the nomi
nees of a national convention have
never bean equalled, perhaps, in the
history of politics in this country. It
was a love feast, a jubilee, a ratitica-
tion meeting.
The great hall became quiet as Sen
ator Lodge, star ding before 15,000 eager
faces, gavel in hand, announced that
nominations for president of the Uni
ted States were in order. The reading
clerk advanced to the frout of the plat
form. He was about to call the roll of
states for tho presentation of candi
dates. When Alabama was called a
thin, red-whiskered delegate from that
Uato arose and surrendered the first
right to speaic to Ohio. A llutter of
handkerchiefs lilled the air and a cheer
went up from the delegates iu the pit
as Senator Foraker of Ohio, the idol of
tho militant republicanism, strode to
the platform.
When quiet was restored ho began to
speak. It was not yet noon but the sun
was blazing through the roof, shooting
his darts and arrows into all parts of
tho hall. With resonant ringing voice
and graceful gesture, Foraker stilled
the noise. Kven the pages and atten
dants crouched down ns they gazed at
tho orator.
When he said his candidate was the
Mil choice of every man who desired
republican success in November tho
roar was like the rush of a heavy sail
through a rocky civern. Tho orator
was Mlcnecd by his own words. His
audience was thrilled They sat like
men under a spill. He dropped a
word here, a word there, like sparks
upon a sun-dried stubble, titid when he
concluded by placing McK nley in
nomination, not in behalf of Ohio, but
of all the sta.es and territories, a clap
of thunder shook the building. The
nomination was immediately seconded
by Uoosevelt of New York, Thurston
of Nebraska, Yerxos of Kentucky and
Gov. Mount of Indiana. The roll oal!
.showed 0110 votes for McKinluy out of
J.'iO votes in thtrVniivention.
After quiet hud been restored Chair
man Lodge aiinouneed nominations
for vieit president were in order.
Again the mine of Alabama was
ealled and .igain Alabama yielded the
Hour, this time to Iowa, and Col. Lnfo
Young of Iowa iu si very forcible speech
placed before the c invention the name
of Theodore Uoosevelt of New YorK for
vice president. Tho nomination was
seconded from every quarter of the
hall and after quiet was restored a roll
- I 1 ...1.I..1. ,..... I. . I I.. OOO
fhll was (iriiereu whiuii tcaum-u in
votes for Uoosevelt, there being one
vote lacking, that being his own vote
in the New York delegation.
ThU closed the work and at 2:14 the
republican national convention of 1900
adjourned.

Incidents ol Every Day Life Which Very
Few People Stop to Think About on
Account of Their Littleness
There is oiin thing tliut is not this
wni)k al111u.1l foinottDii. 'I'liiit is the
sidewalk which has been liullt in front
of ihu Nonh'.s itrk Wc invito ihti pub
lic to come over anil walk on tho good
side of tho slri'ot. TIiIb siduwalk is
now the joy of tho babies bociuiso
niamiua can now trundle tho baby
ulonK without taking chances of break
iBKtho baby1 neck. It will add ma
terially to tho business done on this
side of tho street. The Ciukk is not
taking any credit for tho advocacy of
this iuiyroTowont. There is enough
Rlory in knowiuR that tho walk is there.
Our greatest joy would be to see the
council fraino an ordiuanco under the
law which will condemn this building
and convert it into the ouly thing for
which it is valuable kindling wood.
As tho Fourth of July approaches tho
scramble to secure a ticket to the con
vention at Kansas City is great. A
quiet little Fourth right here at homo
is prefernblo. It will save that tired
feeling, that headache and that wish to
bo alonu tho next day. It will save
that inllnitesmal feeling that some peo
ple here who think they are "big peo
ple" will undergo wuen iiiey meet
and see numbers of really great men.

In fact they huvo already begun to
assume tho warming up process. The
man who merely looks on and wit
nesses the absurdity of many political
discussions mav be looked upon as a
nonentity but In- will have the satislae
tion of not running up ugiinsl a black
eye or the eternal enmity of his best
friend.--U we had the genius of liixby
of tho Statu Journal we would indite a
poem ou the rose, not in the spirit that
John M. Thurston did, of love and
tanderuess, but wo would write of it as
seen by the foreman of the CuiKr in
his dreams on last Saturday morning.
" e would not write of tho rose in its
beauty and sweetness. We would
write of it as a dragon and of the bush
that bora it as unsightly and covered
with thorns resembling the weapon
which the ladies use when they say
"gee up11 in their endeavors to make
the family horse go faster. Wo would
write of an irate woman who stood at
the well near midnight with one of
these thorns in her hand, Hut wo have
not Itixhy's genius und wrll have to
let this bad dream of the rosu remain
written on the memory of the foreman.

A Pleasant Surprise.
Mrs. (iraliain gave her mother, Mrs".
Dr. Kuckwell, a very pleasant surprise
party hut Monday night. She had
planned ii and given out the invita
tions, then on the evening stated
they went out riding. When they
came bai'k Dr. Rockwell said, "Let Us
get a dish ot ice cream before wo go tip
to our rooms." "Oh! no," said Mrs.
Graham. "We will get, that later.'
At tho door of her rooms the Dr. saw a
light from the transom and said, "Oht
there is some 0110 here," thinking it
was her other daughter. Uut wheai
she opened tho door and saw tho yooniv
tilled with ladies all eager to welcoti
her, hor surprise showod in looks and
words. The ladios were very pleasant
ly entertained with games and puzzles,
Mrs. Graham introducing the famous
Dewey puzzle. At a late hour all wore
invited to go down to Iionso's and see
what they could iind to eat. That f.
mom cnterer served them with his do
lioious ico urenw and somo very lino
cako, after which they wended their
wpy homo, happy, lighted through the
darkness by tho lantern of a philan
thropist. The ladies prcsont represen
ted three societies of which Dr. Htck.
well is a member. There wore six
members of tho Kastern Star, six of tho
M. K. Ladies Aid Society and livo mom.
