which they sell and that after disposing of
the articles carried by him the solicitor re

Dn Condemned to Die.
Judge Scott In police court yesterday
passed sentence of death on the "ferocious"
dog which Arthur Southwell was charged
with keeping. Southwell was ordered to
deliver up the canine to the police for Im
mediate execution, or on failure to comply
with the mandate of the court was to pay
a fine of $5 and costs.' Mall Carrier A. J.
Culver was the principal complaining wit
ness against the dog, which he said In
variably mistook him for a tramp Instead
of one of Uncle Sam's servants wearing
the government uniform, and attempted to
make a meal off his nether limbs. It Is
supposed at police headquarters that South
well preferred to part with $3 and a some
what greater sum for costs rather than
with his dog, ns the animal had not been
turned over to the officers for execution.

World's Fair Appropria
tion Is Kshansted.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DEB MOINES. Aug. $. (Special.) Des
Moines commission men are planning, to
bring suit to test the right of the car lines
to make a discriminating charge for use
of their cars for shipments from distant
points to Iowa, it is found that the charge
for use of a car and for furnishing the
same with Ice from Texas points to Iowa
shipping centers is some $20 more than for
similar service to Chicago from the same
points, and the cars are to come through
Iowa. Commission men have made com
plaints to the refrigerator car lines on this
point and now ore getting ready to take
the matter into court to secure a reduc
tion! The sjieciflc suit on which the test
will be made will be against the Armour
line- but it will Involve general principles.
The commission men at other points In the
state have made similar complaints and
are urging the case.
May Ask for Contributions.
The superintendent of the Iowa horticul
tural exhibit at St. Louis, after consulta
tion with his assistants and members of
the executive committee of the commission,
announces that with the money availaDle
the fruit exhibit can be kept going only
about -six weeks longer, efter which, if the
Iowa fruit exhibit is to be maintained at
St. Louis it must be by reason of volun
tary contributions. It was expected that
the exhibit would be made much better
after the first of next month, as a flno ex
hibit was being gathered for the state fair
with a view of sending It to Bt. Louis after
ward. By reason of the appropriation for
additional support by the legislature being
left so that no part of it is available or is
likely to be available at any time the funds
will, soon be exhausted for maintaining
some of the exhibits. Thus far the Iowa
exhibit ha been very creditable to the
state.

of the map. The fire originated in the back
shed of the drug store of the Kupka com
pany, spreading rapidly; and woe soon be
yond control. ' .
While no investigation has been made of
ficially, persistent rumors are afloat to the
effect that the fire was of incendiary
origin. The buildings, with one exception,
were frame. All the bustnese center on
one side of the principal street. waa licked
up by the flames. Had it not been for a
few large trees that broke the force of the
heat and flames, and hard fighting, the
fire would undoubtedly have Jumped the
street and destroyed the entire town north
ot the place where it started. No one woe
seriously Injured. The fire department
from this city was ceiled to aid the
stricken town. Chief Klrby responded with
a hook and ladder truck, the Iowa Central
furnishing a special train for the trip.
They reached Albion about .1 o'clock, too
late to do more than confine the fire to
the block in which it started. Losses and

GOOD RACING ON FEMONT TRACK
Wise Ones Get a Damp in the 3i22
Class.
FREMONT. Neb.. Aug. S (Special Tele
gram.) The races at the Fremont Driving
nark thfs afternoon were closely contested
and exciting. The track was In good shape,
but not fast. In the 2:22 class the knowing
ones, who had picked Spill as a winner.
were floomea to disappointment, tie ironed
well, but was outclassed.. The horses were
well bunched In each el but the little
Black Walnut pushed to the front, but had
to fight for every foot of It.
The 2:10 trot was a borne race from the
start. FJva Mack and Jean fought out the
first two heats, the bay gelding winning by
a neck. In the next three heats the bay
more waa closely pushed by Nlckleette and
In the last heat all three of the horses
were within a length at the wire.
There was a good crowd out and It
stayed until the last heat was trotted. The
raring association allowed no gambling or
side shows pf any kind on the grounds this
season and the bum element which made
so much, trouble for the genuine horsemen
at Blair la conspicuous for its absence. A
special train from Lincoln tomorrow Is ex-
Eected to bring in a good many people,

(Continued from First Page.)
whther the vice president had not reached
a condition of "Inability" within the mean
ing of the constitution would throw tbe
title of the oftice of president Into disre
pute. In your election, on the other hand, this
chief requirement will be fully met. In
the full strength of middle life you are
prepared for the exhausting duties of the
presidency. Your successful ami distin
guished career, the ability and probity with
which you have already discharged the
duties of high office, the universal respect
and esteem of the people of Indiana who
have delighted to honor you, the attach
ment of hosts of friends throughout the
union all assure us that you have the
character nnd the ability to govern wisely
snd strongly should you become president.
Mnny Indeed among our people have sl
resdy turned toward you as a suitable can
didate to be elected directly to that great
office.
It la the earnest wish of your Pftciy and
of many good cltliens Who have no party
affiliation tnst you snail accept mis nom
ination, and that you shall be elected In
November to be the next vice president of
the United States. In expressing to you
this wish, we beg to add an assurance of
our own personal respect, esteem and loy
alty. Senator Fairbanks Accepts.
Senator Fairbanks was given another
ovation as he arose to accept the nomina
tion. He said:
Mr Root and Gentlemen of the Commit
tee: I thank you for the very generous
terms In which you have conveyed the
official notification of my nomination for
vice president or the l nlted Mtates. ine
unsolicited and unanimous nomination by
the republican party Is a call to duty
which 1 am pleased to obey.
I accept the commission which you bring
with a profound sense, of the dignity ana
responsibilities of the exalted position lor
which I have been nominated. My utmost
endeavor will be to discharge In full meas
ure the trust, if the action of the con
vention shall meet the approval of the
American people.
The Dlatform adopted by the convention
Is an explicit and emphatic declaration
of principles In entire harmony with those
policies of our party which have brought
treat honor and nrosnerltv to our common
country and which. If continued, will bring
us like Dlessings In tne future.
The monetary and economic Dollcles which
have been so forcibly reannounced lie at
the very foundation of our Industrial life
and are essential to the fullest develop
ment of our national strerfgth.. They give
vitality to our manufactures and commerce
and If Impaired or overthrown there would
Inevitably ensue a period of Industrial de
pression to the serious Injury or tne vasi
nterests or both labor and capital.
The republican Darty. since it preserved
the Integrity' of the republtc and gave
freedom to the onDressed. never rendered
a - more Important service to the country
than when It established the gold standard.
TTnder It we have increased our currency
sunolv suftlclent v to meet the normal re
quirements of business. It Is gratifying
that tbe convention made frank and ex
plicit declaration of the Inflexible purpose
of the party to maintain the gold standard.
It is essential not only that the standard
should be as good as the best In the world,
but that the people should have tne as
surance that it will be so maintained.
Must Guard Gold Standard.
The enemies of sound money were power
ful enough to suppress mention of the gold
standard In the platform lately adopted
by the democratic imtlonal oonvention.
The leader of democracy In two great na
tional campaigns has declared tsince the
adjournment of the convention that as soon
as the election is over he will undertake
to organize the forces within the demo
cratic party for the next national content
for the purpose of advancing the radical
policies for which his element of the party
stands. He frankly says that the money
question is for tiie present In abeyance.
In view of these palpablo facts It Is not
the pari of wisdom to abandon our vigi
lance In safeguarding the Integrity of our
monetary system. We must have not only
a president who Is unalterably committed
to the gold standard, but both houses of
congress, In entire accord with him upon the
subject. ' ' " -
In congress and not with the president
rests the supreme power to determine the
standard of our money. Though the chief
executive should oppose, the congress, act
ing with its Independent constitutional
authority, could at any time overthrow or
change the monetary standard.
The wisdom of our protective policy
finds Justification In the Industrial develop
ment of the country. This policy has be
come a most vital part of our Industrial
system and must be maintained unim
paired. When altered conditions make
changes in schedules desirable their modi
fication can be safely entrusted to the re
publican party. If they are to be changed
by the enemies of the system along free
trade lines uncertainty would take the
place of certainty and a reaction would
surely follow to the injury of the wage
earners and all who are profitably em
ployed. Uncertainty undermines confidence
and loss of confidence breeds confusion and
distress In commercial affairs.
Convention Acted Wisely. .
The convention was wise not only In Its
enunciation of party policies, but In Us
nomination of a candidate for the presi
dency. During the last three years Presi
dent Roosevelt has bn confronted with
large and Berious questions. These he has
met and solved with high wisdom and
couragu. The charges made against him
in the democratic platform find an. Irre
futable answer in his splendid administra
tion, never surpassed In all the history of
the republic and never equnlled by the
party who seeks to discredit It.
The election of the president Is Impera
tively demanded by those whose success
depends upon the continuance of a safe,
conservative and efficient administration of
public affairs. We have an ample record
of deeds dono, of beneficent things accom
plished in the public interest. The vast
Duslntss of the government has been well
administered. The laws have been enforced
fearlessly and impartially. The treasury
has been adequately supplied with revenue
and the financial credit of the government
was never better. Our foreign trade bal
ance continues to Increase our national
wealth. We have adopted an Irrigation
policy which will build home in the arid
regions of the west. The Panama canal,
the nope or centuries, is In course or con
struction under the sole protection of tho
American flag.
We have peace and great prosperity at
home and are upon terms of good neighbor
hood to the entire world. The conditions
constitute the strongest possible assurance
lor tne iuture.
Later I shall avail myself of a favorable
opportunity to submit to you, and through
you to my fellow citizens, a fuller expres
sion of my views concerning the questions
now in Issue.
Permit me .again to thank you and to
express tne Deuer mat we may confidently
submit our cause to the candid and patri
otic judgment of our countrymen.

Is to love children, and

happy without them, yet the

so full of suffering, danger and fear
that she looks forward to the critical

night after nominating a full ticket with

governor.
No Overcrowding
at St. Louis
Ample Accommodations at Reasonable
Kates.
The alarming and altogether erroneous
reports which have been circulated from
time to time regarding the probable over
crowding, of visitors to the exposition and
the lack of accommodations may bo en
tirely discarded, as the arrangements
which have been rtiade in the Cascade City
are such as to provide good accommoda
tions and entertainment for all who come.
Chief omontf the prominent hostelrles
which have oswed their hospitable doom
is The Inside inn, situated actually within
the grounds of the exposition itself and
erected under the supervision of the
World's Fair management. It Is three
stories in height, U 400 feet Wide, 800 feet
long and contains 2,257 rooms In addition
to Its parlors and waiting rooms and a
dining room and restaurant seating 2,600.
The inside inn is under the direct man
agement of Mr. K. M. Statler, the well
known caterer of Buffalo, who maintains
a high class, uniform cuisine and service
for everyone of his guests.
The Inside Inn is run on both the Euro
pean and American plans at rates ranging
from $1.60 to $5 60 per day,' European, and
from $3.00 to $7.00, American, Including ad
mission In both classes, the range of prices
being solely controlled by the site and lo
cation of the rooms.
The advantage of a large, comfortable
and thoroughly equipped home-like hotel
right Inside the .grounds will at once be
obvious to all who remember the long,
wearisome Journeys so often entailed
both at the World's Fair in Chicago and
at Buffalo by those who lived some distance
away from the exposition. No admission
fee other than the first one Is needed, vis
itors being within the proclncts of the ex
position all the time. They thus save all
loss of time, expenses of street cars, etc.,
and are able to devote the whole of their
time to the pleasures and enjoyments of
the exposition.
Reservations may be made for any date
and full details regarding the many ad
vantages of The Inside Inn may be ob
tained by addressing a postal carl to The
Inside Inn, ' Administration Bldg., World's
Fair Grounds, St. Louis.
