Hear Admiral Howlson Is one ot the
youngest retired officers of his grade, hav
lng been retired October 10, 1890, when ho
reached tho age of 62. During the early
part of tho war ho served principally on
blockade duty, but later participated In
the battle of Mobile bay as commander of
the Bienville. It Is rather an Interesting
cotucldence that ho was in command of
the Vandalla at Samoa, which went down In
the hurricane In Apia harbor while fly
ing the flag of Hear Admiral Klmberly, who
had succeeded hlra as senior officer on the
station and whom he now succeeds on this
court. He was In command of the Boston
yard during the Spanish war and later
was commander ot the South Atlantic sta
tlon. He made the famous long-distance
cruise around Africa In the Chicago as
the last act of his active career, arriving
In New York the day before Admiral
Dewey arrived In the Olympla. It will be
remembered that although he outranked
Admiral Sampson, who was In command
of the receiving fleet at that time, ho re
frained from assuming command and
courteously allowed Admiral Sampson to do
the honors upon that celebrated occasion.
A preliminary list of the witnesses who

Concerning Mr. Monnctt's testimony
charging the Standard Oil company with

ConeernliiK Telephone.
E. J. Hall, vice president and general
manager ot the American Telegraph nnd
Telephone company, submits nn affidavit
concerning telephone conditions. He says
tho charges for the service are higher In
this country than in Europe, but that n fair
comparison Is almost Impossible because of
the many difficulties between tho services
here nnd abroad. The greatest single
factor, ho says, Is tho comparatively low
coat of labor In Europe,
Ho puts the United States In the lend In
telephone development. Next to this
country In tho number of telephone stations
are Germany with 229,391; Great Britain,
171,600; Sweden, 73,600; Franco, 59,91
Switzerland, 3S.864; Austria, 32,255; Russia,
31,376, and Norway 20,416.
A supplementary affidavit made by Prof,
Frank Hnrbons ot Boston is designed to
refute testimony of Vlco Prosldcnt Clark of
the Western Union Telegraph company and
General Manager Bethel of the New York
Telephone company. He charges that tho
Western Union Is overcapitalized and sub
mits figures from official reports to support
his charge. The average actual receipts for
all telegraph messages In England, accord
ing to him, are 15 cents as compared with
37 centB in tho United States. He claims
that comparisons oh to the relatlve cxtcn
slon of tho use of the telephone under
private ownership In the United States
compared with that abroad are misleading,
being based on carefully selected cities.

Neuro Ilog.
BALTIMORE, Md., Aug. 6. Tho repub
lican state convention held here today
placed In nomination the following ticket
For State Comptroller Hon. Mann S.
latt ot Baltimore City.
For Clerk of the Court of Appeals
ThomaB Parran of Calvert county.
Both dominations wero mado by accla
mation, no other names coming before tho
convention. Interest, therefore, centered
mainly In the platform nnd tho speeches,
all of which teemed with denunciation of
democracy In general and former United
States Senator Gorman In particular.
Tho "white supremacy" Issue raised by
tho democrats In tho platform adopted by
them at last weok's convention was Ig
nored In the declaration upon which
the republican candidates will stand, but
came In tor Its unfavorable mention In
the speeches. Phillips Lee Ooldsborough,
halrman of the republican state central
committee, Indicated clearly the course to
bo pursued by his party In the coming
fight with regard to this Issue In his open-
ng address to the convention.
'To the cry that this 1b a white man's
state," said he, "we answer that the negro
bogy will scare no mun. It is disgusting.
but humorous; It Is sham and fraud, It Is
without force. The suggestion that more
than 80 per cent of the white population
of tho state Is in Jeopardy, from any stand
point, from tho less than 20 per cent of
cgro population, Is an Insult to n bravo
ml Intelligent people, who arc Justly proud
the glory of their state. There has
never been a time when there has not boeu
white man's governor In Maryland and, as
the percentage of colored people has
tendlly decreased In tho state each decade
lnco 1S10, when It wus 3S.22 per cent, to
the present, when It Is but 10.78 per cent,
the puerility nnd absurdity of crying aloud
'white man's government' Is apparent.
Tho platform Is the work of United
States Senator McComas and Phlllls Lee
Ooldsborough, chairman ot the state cen
tral committee, who Is regarded ns a promi
nent candidate for tho seat of Senator Wel
lington In tho event ot republican success.
Unlike the democratic declaration of
principles adopted last week, much stress
Is laid on national Issues, The adminis
tration of President McKlnley Is henrtlly
endorsed, tbo policy of tbo rcpubltcau
party upon the tariff, tho currency nnd
other vital questions ot national moment
are vigorously commended.whilo that of
tho democrats of the stato is qulto as
vigorously denounced. Governor Smith
comes In for a full measuro of condemna
tion for having called tho special session
of tho legislature which was held In the
spring of this year, while the party which
placed him in offlcu la soundly berated for
having passed tho ew election laws,
Tho plank which especially refers to Mr
Gorman Is as follows:
We anneal to all good citizens to unite
In defeating the selfish political bosses in
their ronsnlraev becun with tno extra ses
sion to perpetuate themselves and their
methods by one-Bided elections nnd to
thwnrt the first nuroose of that conspiracy
by defeating the election to the United
States senate of tho democratic leader who
dictated the disfranchising election law to
a servile assembly. Their victory would
n trnln fasten unon our state the reign of
corruption nnd violence under their own In
1805 and enable them to Intrench themselves
for a generation behind n far worse dis
franchising election law than the un
American law we are pledged to repeal.
If we succeed we will defeat the election to
the United States senate of the American
whose views on the tariff nnd finances, who
Is stable and unvarying control of tho
democratic party machine.
Othor plans pledge tho party's represen
tatives in congress to uphold the policy of
President McKlnley, promise that the re
publicans if put tn control of the legisla
ture will Immediately repeal the new elec
tion law and re-enact the one In force
prior to the recent special session ot the
legislature to pass laws to prevent cor
rupt practices In elections, to regulato
primary elections; to take the public
schools end police department out of poli
tics, to suppress all combinations of trade
which are Intended to create a monopoly,
to amend the present oyster laws so as
to provide for the replenishment and re
vival of the barren oyster beds at public
expense and to secure to oyster men and
crabbers full rights and privileges on those
beds.

COLUMBIA. S. C, Aug. 6. The demo
cratic state executive committee today re
ceived Senator McLaurln's reply to ltB
nctlon of July 25, condemning his course In
tbo senate and demanding his resignation,
In the course of the letter Senator Mc
Laurln writes:
"I bold my commission from tho demo
cratic voters of South Carolina. I recog
nize no authority but theirs, take no orders
from any source but them and shall In
due courto appeal to their Judgment on
ray course as a senator and my character
as n man.
"Personally, I am Indifferent to your
action, because nobody has mado you my
master and I regard what you have done
as merely expressing the malice nnd tho
fears of one Individual, Senator B. It. Till
man. But for this always evil nnd In
decent Influence, ordinary respect for tho
proprieties would probably have prevented
the four of you who are my declared com
petitors for the seat In which I huvo tho
honor to occupy, from attempting to use
tbo power Intrusted to you by tho party
to remove a rival from your path.
"I shall ask the people to decide between
tho man who has tried to help cotton fac
tories, open highways of commerce and
command for the democratic party the
confidence and respect of the business and
laboring dements north nnd south nnd
that of the man whoso conduct and record
has been to sink tho party to dlsrcputo and
Impotence I shall ask thorn to say
whether they prefer tho senator who has
tried to retain for South Carolina the
honor and dignity won by a long lino of
illustrious sons and glorious deeds or tho
senator who has postured ns buffoon and
bully and who proclaimed on the floor of
the senato that he represented a constit
uency of ballot box stuffers and murderers
who wanted their share of the stealage
"1 desire to proclaim to the world that
you do not represent the Intelligence of
the democracy of the people of South Caro
lina and to you and Senator Tillman that
he has never been my master and shall
never be; that he shall not escapo the
vengeance that must surely fall upon him
when tho peoplo havo been made to under
tand his motives, his method, his debased
character and his hateful record. To that
grand preserver of free government I make
appeal against partisan Intolerance and
tyranny "

You drink tome beers that cntue bilious hendnche. Perhaps
you think that A.l beers do.
The c.uisc of biliousness is the lack of ape too much haste
to put the beer on the market. To ferment beer thoroughly
requires a process of months. Without it the fermentation takes
place in your stomach. That is the cause of biliousness.
Hurried beer is unhealthful. Schlitz beer is kept (or months
in refrigerating rooms with a capacity of CGo.000 barrels kept
almost at frecting point until it is well fermented. Schlitz beer is
never marketed until thoroughly aged.
