Gentlemen of the Convention
I am not in any temper of mind at the present time or have the power
of voice to make a speech Iamoiot an orator at any time I want to
say that I thank you from the bottom of my heart for this nomination
I think no higher honor can be paid to a citizen of your state than to be
nominated for the office of justice of the supreme court That court
carries with it the power of lifeand death the disposition of the property
of any man in the state and it is the most responsible position that can
bo tendered or given to any man in tho state I appreciate the responsi
bility of this position
I want to say too that if elected which I expect to be I shall know
neither rich or poor neither corporation or individual and that so far as
in me lies I will dispense justice with oven hand to every man within the
borders of the state
I am told that your committee on resolutions will report to this con
vention declaring against tho issuance of free transportation by tho rail
roads in this state I want to say to you that I am in hearty accord with
that declaration
Further I understand that they have endorsed our president and 1
stand firmly with them on that proposition

ovnroctWl Jn Hi ft titifi of the act The
title prohibits the manufacture and sale
of cigarettes and cigarette papers The
court says
If the barter and gifts of cigarettes
and cigarette papers is not prohibited by
the court it is manifest that the purpose
and intent of the legislature is thwarted
and we think that purpose and intent
is plainly to be derived from the title of
the act itself
The court holds that the intent of the
act is sufficiently expressed in the title
and says
The legislature undoubtedly supposed
the use of cigarettes was injurious to
the public in general through its effect
upon the health and morals of the peo
ple The intention was to remove these
articles from the avenues of commerce
to banish them from the state as guilty
and illegitimate things that ought not
to be offered to or easy of access by vic

FEROCIOUS FRIENDSHIP
An Incident In the Life of the Tra
gedian 3IacrenIj
Between Macready nnd my brother
Charles existed a kind of ferocious
friendship Macready whatever ho
may have been in private life had at
the theater a simply hprrible temper
and he was In the habit of using at
rehearsals and even In an undertone
when acting the most abusive Ian-
guago language which my brother
sometimes passed by with a smile but
which he occasionally hdtly resented
He did not mind Macready constantly
nddrcsshig him as beast but he ob
jected to having his eyes his limbs
nnd his Internal organs coupled with
Invective terms Yet oddly enough
the great tragedian with whom he
was constantly quarreling had a grim
respect and liking for him He knew
iiim to be a centleman and a scholar
and one who was a competent judge
of picturesque effect and an acute dra
matic critic On one occasion Ma
cready having to play Othello and
my brother not being included in the
cast the tragedian thus addressed him
Beast I want you to go in front to
night and give me afterward a full and
candid opinion as to the merits of my
acting Omit nothing Tell me how I
played and how I looked I have an
idea that I shall surpass myself this
evening Now the great actor used
to go through a tremendous amount of
realistic effort in the part of Othello
and toward the close of the tragedy
would get into such a disorganized
physical condition that he was all per
spiration and foaming at the mouth
and presented a somewhat shocking
spectacle
My brother duly occupied a seat in
the front row of the dress circle and
narrowly watched the performance
from beginning to end Then he went
behind the scenes and repaired to
Macreadys dressing room The artist
was being disrobed by his dresser and
was panting with excitement in an
armchair
Well beast what was It like
My brother told him that he had de
rived the highest gratification from
the performance and he had never seen
him play Othello more superbly He
was magnificent in his speech to the
Venetian senate the jealousy scenes
with Iago were splendid the murder
of Desdemona was superb and he died
inimitably Macreadys face lighted up
more and more as my brother answer
ed his many queries
Tis well beast he observed at
last Tis well very well and now
what was my appearance how did I
look beast
My brother cogitated for a moment
and then with perfect candor replied
Like a sweep sir G A Salas
Recollections
Unloaded on the Editor
Soon after arriving in London Justin
McCarthy obtained an introduction to
an editor -who had started what was
then the novel feature of publishing
short stories in newspapers Mr Mc
Carthy wrote a stoiy for him and sent
it in A few days later he called at the
office to learn its fate
I hope you can see your way to ac
cept it he said timidly
Yes and sixty more like it replied
the editor
Nothing more was heard of Mr Mc
Carthy for several months When he
eventually put in an appearance at the
office he had a large parcel with him
What have you got there asked
the editor seeing him untie the cord
These are the sixty stories you
asked me to write answered his vis
itor The editor gasped for breath
But I didnt ask you to write any
thing like that number he said
You expressed your willingness to
accept sixty stories like the one I wrote
on approval and here they are I
merely took you at your word quoth
the young Irishman The stories were
not refused
The Salamander
In Andrews Anecdotes Ancient and
Modern 17S9 one reads Should a
glass house fire be kept up without ex
tinction for a longer term than seven
years there is no doubt but that sala
mander would be generated in the
cinders This probably accounts for
the popular idea that a salamander
lives in the fire a fallacy so far re
moved from the truth that the curious
lizard like beast so called cannot en
dure even the heat of the sun but
skulks away under stones to avoid it
It will never lose its reputation for
fire eating though which lingers still
in the heating utensil that is named
after it
Dickens nnd Thackeray
I once missed meeting Dickens at
Chatsworth He left the day of my
arrival writes Leveson Gower in his
memoirs Thackeray came that same
afternoon and was anxious to hear
about Dickens visit He wondered
whether he had toadied the duke very
much My impression is that though
professing to be friends these two
great novelists did not care much for
one another
