A DEFENSE OF THE "GALLUS"
Sabtle Problem la Sartorial7 Ethics
Treated with Befitting- '
Dignity.
Numerous public prints In the argumenta
tive north are debating a subtle-problem
in aestheflco-ethlce, vl':ir;f It .meet and
fitting fpr','a gentleman,- in these. pestifer
ous' days, to wear braces without a coat?
In - other words, is It ' proper for' one of
refined instinct and intellectual pretension
to expose hi bracea 'to the gase of the
crowd? Brtn word, bf "course. wllude
to the harness, apparatus of tackle de
nominated by' the vulgar, suspenders', and
by tb bucolic, galluses. ,.''.'.
A might be expected, theT bilious north
ern critic place their ban upon the cus
tom and Join In proclaiming the apparatus
Itself a hissing and a loathing. Instills
position we see little philosophy. Sophism
and snobbery are responsible for whatever
odium or opprobrium enmeshes the gallu.
In Itself, subjectively, and as a machine or
object of atttlre, per '. It I eminently
I lnocuou and immaculate, It serve a use
ful and an honorable purpose. It la modest
and -retiring. It 1 not without a certain
elusive beauty.. For these reasons, and
many other, we hold that it haa proved
it right to a place in our sorry scheme of
thing.. Like the hair restorer and tooth
pick. It may offend these whose fastidious
ness I over-delicate, but in the view of
healthy, freeborn . American citlaens there
can be no evil in it and no cause for hostile
demonstration in it frank display. Wil
liam Waldrof Astor may palpitate at
thought of It,, but to a self-respecting demo
crat, born and raised south or Mason and
Dixon's line, It 1 Inexpressibly dear. ,
The "gallus" mark, the freeman and the
man of genuine, unpretending culture and
clvllltatlon. Tour snob and. your aavugo

Mr. Jefferson sat calmly swinging hi feet

hi head with a gravity that completely

Unanimously and within ten minute after
it wa called to order,- the 8ecorul district
republican convention .yesterday afternoon
renominated Congressman John L. Kennedy
for a eecond term. Mr. Kennedy had no
opposition, but darplte the lack of contest
Washington hall waa fairly well filled with
delegates from Douglas, Washington and
Sarpy counties who displayed plenty of
enthusiasm, In particular with reference to
the congressman.
Mr. Kennedy' made 'a speech thanking
the convention for the honor and pointing
out some of the virtues of recent republi
can national rule. ' A platform brought in
by a committee consisting of A. W. Jef
ferls, ' A.. R. 1 Morrison, R. Blaco, Frank
Whltamore, B. E. Wilcox, Beeches lllgby,
Fred W. Flodman, NathaVi Bernstein,
Frank A. Furay and George L. Hurst, waa
unanimously adopted.
Chairman Jefferla . of the ' congressional
committee called the convention to order
and suggested E. Z. Russell of Blair for
temporary chairman. . Later the. temporary
organisation waa made permanent. E, 8.
Nlckerson of Gretna served as secretary
and W. M. Mickey aa assistant aecretary.
There were no contests, no roll calls and
Mr. Kennedy's renomlnatlon waa made on
motion of.M. L. Learned by acclamation.
Kennedy Thank Convention.
Mr. Kennedy thanked the convention, say
ing that in these troubulou times, victory
without a struggle seemed almost too good
to be true. He said that when he waa
nominated and elected two year ago In
the face- of hearty opposition he esteemed
the result a compliment, but that he con
sidered the unopposed ' renomlnatlon a
greater compliment. The contest of two
years ago left a few sore spots, he said, but
his opponents in the party had co-operated
In hi election and made that fact possible,
and there' were no sore spots remaining.
He said the united condition of the party
on the "congressional matter made his elec
tion assured.
"Why should the people of the United
Etates want a change from republican
principles and policies?" asked the con
gressman, in referring to national affairs.
"I would like to have that question an
swered for I do not know. ' The domo:
crattc leaders are doing much talking, but
they always did that.. If language were
legislation th democracy of this country
would have written our statute .books full
of. It long! ago. . , '.. .
."Against tl)f ir words we put republican
works.
"What has the democracy don to restore
the confidence of the Amerlcaa people .in
ItT I hear a great deal ot talk about the
'peerless leader,'; but It looks to me like .the
same old ballpon -being inflated a It was
twice before, and I tell, you that before the
November election It will be punctured so
badly it can never reach the goal.
"The session of congress Juet -cloned Is
probably the most, remarkable In the his
tory of the oountry .in times ot peace, or
times, of war, 'Never In any congress- at
ang session have ao many measure "been
pasd :f or. the upbuilding of the commerce.
Industry and Institution of the' nation:
Before thla congrena met there was a ques
tion whether, the .corporation would con
trol the government or the government
control tha corporation i-felt .no -uncertainty
of, th outcome, for I had expressed
and felt the conviction that the creature
never can become greater than -It creator.
I know .the government Is strong enough
to control all corporations no matter bow
powerful. My confidence haa not been held
In vain.
Want All Protected. '
"Never before have I been associated
with mf so Imbued with the spirit of
fairness and the desire to do their full
duty as I was in th last congress. I have
no sympathy with, the cry against corpora
tions and wealth 'if the power of the cor
1 po ration I properly exerted ' and the
wealth honestly obtained. I have not and
will not champion any special Industry,
but believe In the protection - of them all
In their legitimate rights.
'''But In considering the republican admin
istration the one thought that stands out
above all others Is that' in the last year
the people of the ' United Blates have
learned obedience to law. ''The time' was
when laws were placed on the statute books
and It "was considered' proper tor the man

A resolution, introduced by Richard
Blaco of Washington county endorsed the
republican state ticket and commended the
platform on which It stands. .
It developed that this resolution had been
presented in the resolutions , 'committee
without receiving favorable consideration
because of a desire to. keep the con
gressional contest on national lines. The
delegates insisted- that It be read a second
time before the motion wa put, and Just
before the vote was taken Ed Moriarty
called out, in audible tone, "Wa want It
understood that thla doe., not Include the
senatorshlp," which sentiment seemed to
evoke acquiescence In several corners - of
the hall.
The Kennedy clan was out In full force.
while Congressman John L. Kennedy wa
peaking from the platform, fudge Howard
Kennedy leaned up against, the back wall
and William Kennedy occupied a seat near
the center aisle.
