In the plank relating to the reduction
of the national revenue, after referring
to the Internal revenue taxation and the
method proposed In reducing the ' re Venae,
further emphasising the protection idea
waa stated as follow: "And by such rt

The first plank la thf platform of 1892
was devoted to the principle of protection.
It read: "We reaffirm tha American doo-trtns-
of proteotlon. W -call attention to
It, growth abroad. We maintain that the
prosperity of our -country la largely, due
to the wis revenue legislation of the last

np"and' Lemphaslre our lleglanc to th
policy of protection as th bulwark of
American Industrial independence and the
foundation of American development: and
prosperity." It , Concluded th, paragraph
by th anaertloni "W are not.' pledged to
any particular schedule. The question of
rate Is a practical' question, "to .be", goy
erned by the conditions of time and of pro
duction;,, th ruling and . uncompromising
principle Is the proteotlon and development
of American labor and industry. The Coun
try demands a right settlement, and then
It wants rest," ,
' Last ' Deliverance "vn Tariff.
The platform of 1900 had an elaborate
plank devoted to tjie subject of protec
tion. It opened' with the declaraUon: "W
renew our faith in th policy of protec
tion to American' labor.' In that pblfcy our
Industries have been established, diversi
fied and maintained.'' By ' protecting the
home, market competition ha been
strengthened and production'' cheapened."
After calling attention to the beneficial re
suits derived from the operation . ot the
policy, the paragraph closes with this
declaraUon: "We favor the) j associated
policy of reciprocity so directed as to opeu
our markets on favorable terms for that
which we do, not ourselves produce In re
turn for free foreign markets." ;
It I understood, however, that a at
present forecasted the platform.! to -contain
no declaration upon reciprocity. If the
suggestion , above made are sound this Is
an unnecessary precaution, although much
declaration may not be necessary. The
Massachusetts platform Is especially In
teresting, by reason Of the fact, that Sen
ator Lodge undoubtedly had a controlling
influence In It formation.
Vpon reciprocity It reaffirm th national
platform of 1900, as quoted, which, Js in
essence the' Iowa declaraUon upon that
question. Upon th question of revision
It resembles very much the plank propoeed
for the national platform. It says:- ,
Proposed Plank for 1904.
- ','We Insist , upon tha maintenance ' of
Its principles. We recognise ihat partic
ular tariff schedule are neither sacred nor
immutable. Rate of duty may be altered
when charged condition demand their al
teration, -but no revision should be under
taken unless It Is clear that th' benefit
will more than compensate tha inevitable
disturbance of business which attends any
revision of tariff schedules. Nor can It be
safely Intrusted to any other than the
party of protection."
With the exception of the clause under
taking to state the condition under which
revision will be undertaken, that la, with
the change of a few immaterial word,
the proposed" plank, Trier la no good
reason why any friend of the protective
tariff need hav any apprehension . from
th adoption of audi a plank,- and a It
meet In a reasonable' degree the desires
of the wing of th party that Is liberal
in Its tendencies on that subject, It would

few band shakes from Washington friends.
When he removed bis hat the recognition
was instantaneous - and the speaker was
warmly greeted by the balconies and dele
gates. Cheers for Fairbanks.
By a quarter of 13 each entrance to the
floor ot tb hall was pouring in a stream of
delegates. They came In quietly, few
delegate arriving in a body. Mingling
with th strains of th band was a great
hum of conversation, but there .was no

near th platform.
When the hand of the big clocK over
th main entrance marked 1$ o'clock," tho
floor waa filled, but the galleries held hot
more than half their capacity.
Another prominent arrival at this mo
ment was Ex-Qov. Black of New York.
The Alaska delegation carrying totem poles
mounted upon eagles at traded attention
and was greeted with applause).
There waa a very small crowd compar
aUvaly outside the ha'J. The arrange

tators Were rapidly admitted and In an
orderly manner. A few bands that had led
th marching clubs played outside the en
trance, but no especial demonstrations
war made by th email crowd of specta
tors who were In the street.

Addves at Temporary Chairman.
Applause greeted ' Governor Odell and It
was eome moment! before he could put
hi motion. It was at one adopted by
the convention. Mr. Root was greeted
with renewed heers as he advanced to
the speaker's stand. "Mr. Chairman," he
said, "I am deeply " another burst of
cheers cut him' off. "I am deeply," resumed
Mr. Root, when quiet was restored, and
this time he was permitted to proceed.
' Mr. Root's opening remarks dealt with
th control pf the government by the re
publican party, and th principles which
underlie the formation of the) popular
government under which we live. He went
on:
When the course of the next adminis
tration Is but half done the republican
party will have completed the first half
century of Its national life. Of the eleven
administration since the first election ot
Abraham Lincoln, nine covering a period
of thirty six years ha v been under re
publican president. For th greater part
of that time, the majority in eaoh house
of congress has been republican. History
affords no parallel In any age or country
for the growth in national greatness and
power and honor, the whole diffusion of the
comforta of life, the uplifting of the great
mas of the people abovs the hard condi
tions of poverty, the common opportunity
for education and individual advancement,
the universal po'ssen-ilon of civil and relig
ious liberty, the protection of property and
security for the rewards of Industry and
enterprise, the cultivation of national mor
ality, respect for religion, sympathy with
humanity and love of liberty and justice,
which have marked the life of the Ameri
can people during this long period of re
publican control.
With the platform and the candidates ot
this convention, we are about to aak. a re
newed expression of popular confidence In
th republican party.
Why It I Asked.
We ehall ask It because the principle
to which we declare our adherence are
right, and the best Interests or our country
require that Ihiy should be followed in Its
government.
We shall ask It because the unbroken
record of the republican party In the past
la an assurance of the sincerity of our dec
larations and the fidelity with which we
shall give them effect. Because we have
,4en constant in principle, loyal to our be
liefs and fiilthful to our promises, we are
entitled to be believed and trusted now.
We shall ask it because the character of
the party gives assurance of good govern
ment. A great political organisation, com
petent to govern, la not a chance collection
of Individuals brought together for the
moment as the shifting sands are piled
up by wind and sea. to be Swept away, to
be formed-and re-formed again. It la a
frrowth. Traditions and sentiments reacti
ng down through struggles of year gone,
and th stress and heat of old conflicts,
and th Influence of leader passed away,
and the insralned habit of applying fixed
rules of Interpretation and of thought all
give to a political party known and In
alienable nun lilies from which must follow
In Its deliberate judgment apd ultimate
aotlon, like results for good or bad govern
ment We dp mot deny that other parties
have In their menfbershlp men of morality
end patriotism; but we assert with confi
dence that above all others, by the Influ
ences which gsve It birth and have main
tained its life, by the causee for which It
has striven, the Ideals which It has fol
lowed, the republican parts' as a party has
acquired a character which makes Its as
cendency the best guarantee of a govern-,
ment loyal to principle and effective In ex
ecution. . Through it more than any other
political organisHtlon the moral sentiment
of -America finds expression. It cannot
depart from the direction of Its tendencies.
From what It has been msy be known
certainly what It must be. Not all of us
rise to Its standard; not all . of js are
worthy of Its glorious history: but as a
whole thle sreat political orgsnlxatlon the
rarty of Lincoln and MrK Iniey rannot
all in the work in the spirit of Ita past
an In '.oyalt to great Ideals.
We shall ask the continued confidence of
the people bocadxe the randldxtea whom we
,mnt are of proved competency and pa
rtntlam. fitted to fill the Office for which
they are nominated, to th credit and honor
of our country.
We shall ask It because the prevent poli
cies of our governmsnt are beneficial and
ought not U be et aside; and tb people s
business Is being well done and ought not
to be Interfered with.';.
- Problem Party Ha Faced.
He then reviewed the many vexalJou
and stupendous problems with which th
administration has had to' grspple during
the 'last four, years,: and explained bow
each had been successfully solved or pnt
Into a fair way of solution. " The policy a
regard th . trusts, th money queetlun,
Cuba, the Philippines, the army and navy,
th Internal, and external relation of th
country were reviewed briefly but uo
clnct'.y, and th speaker continued f
The present administration ha reduced
taxation, reduced the public debt, reduced
the annual interest charge, hi ad effective
progress In the regulation of trusts, fos
tered business, promoted agriculture, built
up the navy, reorganised to army, resur
rected the militia system. Inaugurated a
new pc-llcy for the preservation and recla
mation of public lands, given civil govern
ment to the Philippines, established the
republic of Puna, bound- It to ti by ties of
gratitude, of commercial Interest and of
common defense, swung open the closed
gnteway of the Isthmus, strengthened the
Monroe doctrine, ended the Alaskan boun
dary dispute, protected the integrity of
China, opened wider Its door of trad, ad
vanced the principle of arbitration and pro
moted peace among the nation.
We cnallenge judgment upon this record
of effective performance In legislation, In
executfon and in administration. '
The work is not fully done; policies ar
not completely wroueht out: domestic ques
tions still preas continually for solution;
other trusts must be regulated; the tariff
may presently receive revision, and If so,
should receive It at . ths hands of th
friends and not the enemies of th protec
tive system; the new ' Philippine govern
ment has only begun tn develop Its plan
for the benefit of thst long-neglected coun
try; our flsg floats on the Isthmus, but the
canal Is yet to be built; peace doe not yet
reign on earth, and a nsiderate firmrwsa
backed by strength are still. needful in dip
lomacy. The American peopi hsve now to ray
whether policies shall be reversed, or com
mitted to unfriendly guardians; whether
performance, which now proves itself for
the benefit end h6nor of out country, shall
be transferred to unknown and perchanc
to feeble hands.
Policy la Perpetoal.
No dividing line canvb drawn athwart
the course of this successful admlnlstra
Uon. The fatal 14th of September, loV
marked no change of policy, no lower
level of achievement. - The bullet of the aa
sassin robbed u of the friend we loved; It
took away from the people the president of
their choice; It deprived civilisation of a
potent force making always for righteous
ness and for humanity. But the taonc ot
free institutions remained unshaken. The
government tit the people went on. The
great party that William McKinley led,
wrought still in the spirit of his example.
His true and loyal successor has been
equal to tne nuroen cast upon mm. widely
different in -temperament and methods, he
nas approved nimselt ol tne same ele
mental virtues the same fundamental be
lief. .With faithful and revering memory
he ha executed the purpose and con
tinued unbroken the policy of President
McKinley for the peace, prosperity and
honor of our beloved country. - And he has
met all new occasions . with strength and
resolution and far-sighted wisdom.
Aa we gather in this convention our
hearts go back to th friend the never to
be forgotten friend, whom- when last we
met we acclaimed with one accord as our
universal choice to bear a second time the
highest honor In the nation's gift; and
back still, memory goes through many a
year of leadership and loyalty.
How wise and skillful he was!, how mod
est and self-effaolng! how deep bis in
sight into the human heart! how swift the
intuitions of his sympathy! how compell
ing the charm of his gracious presence!
He was so unselfish, so thoughtful of the
happiness of others, to genuine a lover of
his mother country and hi kind. And he
was the kindest' nad tenderest friend who
ever grasped another's hand. Alas, that
his virtues did plead In vain against cruel
fat!- . .
- Yet we may rejoice,- that while he lived
be was crowned with- honor; that th ran
cor ef party strife bad ceased; that suo
ees in his great tasks, the restoration of
peace, the approval of his countrymen, the
affection of his friends, gave the- last-quiet
months In his home at Canton repose and
contentment . is-u. .

Truth, sincerity, "courage! these nhderli
the fabrlo of our institution. Upon hypo
crisy and sham, upon -cunning and false
pretense,- upon weakness and -cowardloe,
upon the arts of the demagogue and the
devices of the mere politician, no govern
ment can stand.. No system of popular
government can endur In-which the peo
ple do not believe and trust. Our presi
dent ha taken th whola people Into his
confidence. Incapable of deception, he ha
put aside concealment.- Frankly' and with
out reserve, he ha told them what their
fovernment was doing, and the reasons,
t. Is. no campaign of .appearanoe upon
which we enter, for the people know. -the
good and the bad, the success, and the
failure, to be credited and charged to our
account. ,-, It Is no campaign of sounding
words and specious pretence, for our
president-has told, the people with frank
ness 'What he believed ami what he ln-
t.nitdit Ha haa meant everv word he Said.
and the people have bellved every word he
said, and with him this convention agrees
because every word has been sound repub
llcsn dootrine. No - people can maintain
free government who do not In their heart
value the qualities which have made the
president of the United States con
spicuous among the men of his time, as
a type of noble manhood. . Come what may
here come what may In November, God
grant that those qualities of brave true
manhood hall honor .throughout America,
shall be held for an example In every
home, and that the youth of generation
to come may grow up to feel that It is
better than wealth, .or office, or power,
to have the honesty, the purity, and the
courage of Theodore Roosevelt,
Vnvells Roosevelt's Picture,
blmultaneously with Roof appearance
at the speaker' table an immense oil paint
ing of President Roosevelt wa unveiled at
hi right. The tableau brought forth a
burst of enthusiasm ' As Mr. Root began
to apeak the picture wa revelled and the
sol attention of th immense gathering
wa -devoted to the New York statesman.
He had hardly started when cries of
"louder" were heard. His voice soon gath
ered power, however, and his well enun
ciated words rang well through the sUll
hall.
The most striking sentences of his speech
were liberally applauded. When he re-,
viewed In figures the money of the country
and when he annqunced th enormous
sum-of gold accumulated tb convention
became enthuslastlo. All -of the figure'
Mr. Root pronounced without reference to
memorandum." He turned his attention to
the administration's restriction of trusts.
Thar wa a round of applause. The dec
laration that those corporations which had
encroached on the rights of the publlo had
been curbed to an extent' never before
reached pleaaed the Convention.
He paced back and forth In a. brief space
on the platform and enforced hi words
with quiet gesture in which his Index
finger played an important part
Discussing th Cuban question, Mr.' Root

LODGE! PRESENTS HIS PLATFORM
Draft Given 4a Suboommlttee as Baals
for Work.
CHICAGO, June tl. When the subcom
mittee of ths committee on resolutions,
met Senator Lodge for the first time pre
sented hi draft of a platform, laying that
It waa Intended largely as a basis for ac
tion by the committee. His draft lneluded
a plank strongly commending the estab
lished republican policy on tho tariff and
presenting In terse language the neces
sity for maintaining the protective policy
in the interest, of , American labor and
American industries. Added fo thl wa
a declaration committing th party to a re
adjustment of the schedules If found to be
desirable, In the future.. There was also
a mild declaration on the subject of re
ciprocity and a pronouncement against
trusts, but with a reservation In ths Inter
est of "established, legitimate industries."
There were also planks dealing with the
Isthmian canal and the policy of th
United State toward Cuba, upon which
th republican party I felicitated. It also
contained a declaration In favor of en
couraging American shipping.
A number of suggestions made by out
elder were considered, but none of them
had been acted upon when, at 7 o'clock, the
committee took ' recess for dinner. In
deed, none of th proposition, Including
those presented by Senstor Lodge, had gt
that time been more than tentatively con
sidered, and member of the committee ex
pressed the belief that many change would
b mad before the final acceptance of th
platform.
The tariff plank I attracting mor atten
tion than any other feature of the plat
form and member of th' subcommittee
think that no agreement will be reached
until a very lata hour. Already objections
hava been raised by tha wording of th
plank, and Representative Dalsell and Sen
ator Hansbrough are opposing tha clause
relating to reciprocity. Mr. Dalsell doee
not want any refsrenc )o th ul-jact.
while Senator Hansbrough I contending
for the euggeation contained In his reso
lution that an adjustment of the tariff
should be mad with regard to anlarged
commercial relaUon with foreign coun
tries -
