In our proud state democratic success has made the people bow their heads in ghame. Two years ago the democrats sold thelr nomination for governor® to a rich demagogue who lacked every instinet of orderly government, who has made every state appolntment with a view to hls own personal aggrandizement, who has encou aged anarchy, abetted disorder, ghielded crime, pardoned eriminals, looked smilingly ~upon mobs riots, rebuked the court se dalized the various state charit tlons and park boards and in move brought dishonor and discredit on the fair fame and name of our own giorlous state. Last month another democratic conven- tion bartered a mnomination Tor United States senator for a wealthy free trade diletante, who, not having been sufficiently recognizéd according to his own judgmernit by the republican party, has = recently avowed himself a democrit and now sed to prove his demacrucy by the violen of his opinions. He wa ed by high and influential political pr tected bosses, in pursuance of a scan- dalous political trade and = against the wishes even of a majority of the individual delegates to the convention. This wealthy candidate will soon be traveling unil the state in a borrowed suit of ald clothes, pralsing democratic statesmanship — and aching free trade, while his wife and Ber hald are ofr in Furope spendink money there at the cheap prices which he would like to introduce here. He helieves In ultimate trade.

In raising the necessary revenue of the government we are in favor of such duties on competing Imports as will tend to the development of the re- sources of our own country, of the labor of our own people performed at wages which put the comforts of life within easy reach and secure good prices for the pro- duets alike of our farms, our mines and our workshops, and we beflleve that articles that cannot be successfully produced in this country, except luxuries, should be placed upon the free list. We' further be- lieve that without labor ‘there 18 no such thing as raw material of any practical or marketable value, and no tangible thing of value that it does not require labor to pro- duce or utilize, and hence the importation of so-called raw material free of duty is an interference with the system of protec- tion to American labor and should only be permitted when the raw material is unob- tainable In our own country.

POOR ALTGELD. We arralgn the present democratic gov ernor of Illinols as the most conspieuous mishit in official position.

He began by invoking the Divine blessing on the country in this hour of peril, asked that its enemy, the democratic party, be mercitul as possible, and that the people be thankful for all the good it did—if it did anything to enlist their sympathies—and closed by appealing to the Omnipotence to assist in expediting the infamous democratic party trom power and lay the hand of Divine dis- pleasure on them, and restrain them forever from the exercise of government authority.

It was nearly 9 o'clock before the delegates reassembled, and the heat was so In'ense that all suffered greatly. The committee on resolutions reported and the platform was unanimously adopted.

We have but to mention the disastrous results which have followed the mere menace of free le us conclusive evidence of the wisdom of the republican policy In the past upon this subject. We adhere to the declaration of the national republican party in 1891 upon its monetary policy. We reaffirm our Dbelief that the interests of the country, its rmers and working men demand that every dollar, paper or coin, fssued by the Kovernment 'shall be as gooll as any other We favor the largest possible use of sllver as money that I8 consistent with the perma- nent matntenance of equal values of all dollars in circulation.

Its whole histe un effort to secure to the wage just share of the fruits of toll and it now renews its pledge to defend the working man not only against the ussaults of for ¢ign competition, but against the attacks of domestic avarice. That the honest and industrious ant’ who comes to our land with the to become in good falth an Amer- ican cltizen is always welcome; none other be permitted to come. We favor amendment* and_more siringent en- cement of the immigration laws, 50 us exclude criminal, pauper and all other undesirable classes whose presence tends 10 degrade American labor and incite dis- order. The republican party, ever mindful of the to the peaple as set forth therein. The pres- sent_condition of the country resulting from the threatcned change in the industrial pol- icy by the democratic party, the hundreds of factories and workshops closed down, the thousands of men out of employment, are the best witnesses which can be brought to testify to the wisdom of the policy of protection to home industries, which has always been sustained and fostered by the republican party. The republican party is the friend of both labor and capital; éach is Indispensable to the other. The party had its origin In_opposition to the enslave- ment and degradation of labor, and under its policy the workingmen of the United States received a higher rate of wages and attained a degree of comfort and in- fluence such as théy had never previously enjoyed. It will employ whatever authority it possesses to promote al just demands of the wage earner ‘and support whateyer practical measures can be devised for the amelioration of his condition. We recognize the right of laborers to organize, using all honorable measures for the purpose of dignifying their condition and placing them on an equal footing with capital, to the end that both fully under- stand they are friends: and are equal to ach other and to the, prosperity of the ple.

We favor the use of silver as currency to the extent only that it can be circulated on a parity with gold. The republican party Is a party of rell- gious liberty and absolute nonsectarianism, of entire separation of church and state, of free common schools and of the utmost independence of individual thought, speech and action within the law. The convention then proceeded to the first informal ballot, which gave Upham 723; Scoficld, 66%; Haugen, 64; Monahan, 43; Taylor, 39, and the rest scattering. ~ Ad- Journed till 8:30.

A hundred men ran into the Adams sta- Dles and cut loose the 150 horses they cone tained. The animais were cut looss and turncd into the street. The horses of the Knox company could not be reached. Thera were 205 of them and they were on the second story of the building, which was a scething mass of flames from the very start. The Knox bullding was a four-story structure of brick. On the first floor were the heavy wagons of the concern, on the second floor the horses, on «the third and fourth floors hay in large quantities and merchandise of all kinds which had been stored with the company. FIGHTING UNDER DIFFICULTY. Another bullding of the Knox company, facing on Second street aud conncet:d with the stables, separated only by a thin, brick wall, was used for storage purposes. It was packed from basement to roof with furs niture and merchandis>. It is in_this build« ing that the greatest loss occurred. The heat was so intense t the firemen were obliged to throw water on each other re peatedly in order that they wight continue at their work. Men who had to hold lines of hose on the B stroet front of the Knox building were obliged to lie flat and hold their faces to the ground, £o awful was the heat. A portion of the wall of the rear of the Adams building fell into the alley and into the back exit. The members of hose company No. 1 and several men of other companies were caugnt inside of the building. Fire Chief Parrish rushed to the rescue, Half a dozen leads of hos: were turned upon the burning mass which had fallen in front of the exit. A the bricks cooled slightly twenty firemen and as many policemen rushed into the building. 1t was an awful risk. The walls of the Knox building wera tottering. At any inoment they might fall and crush the smaller building under them. In a moment the rescuers emerged from what was thought to be a d ath pit. In their arms they dragged the bodies of three firemen, who had been burt by falling bricks, While fhey were insid: the heat had been 8o intense that they were almost baked alive, Their comrades were also scorched and singed. Al were dragged back to the op posite sidewalk Two minutes after the party came out the upper floors of the Knox building fell. Only the semi-tower, which made the office corner of the building, was left standing. With the fall of the walls the fire was practically un= der control, but the flames wers hotter than ever. It was nccessary to keep the hose playing on the residence houses all about and the firemen, now completely exhausted, had to be reli-vcd every four or five minutes. Eight two-story frame houses on the north alley caught fire. They were allowed to burn. Water and hose could not be wasted upon them. Their occapants had long since left them, and for fifteen minutes bricks had been grashing through the roofs, Fire started from the roofs of all the dwellings. Ladders were brought into use and citizens and policemen took the places of the exhausted firemen and kept the fire from spreading. The hay and Itght mas terial with which the bu g5 were filled made a fierce fire.
