The Republican Ticket-The Indiana Senator Gets Second Place-The Platform. Chioago, July 28.-The National Republican Convention adjourned this afternoon at 2.30 o'clook, after nominating Theodore Roosevelt for President, and Senator Charles W. Fairbanks, of Indiana, for Vice President. Without,the slightest break, with out eveu a creak or the suspicion of one, the well-oiled machinery of the Republican National Convention performed its allotted woik. The end was accomplished on ?ohedule time, with the accompaniment of spectacular features, to the prepara tion of which the manugemant hud devoted muoh care and attention. There were the usual demonstra tions at proper times, calculated, as they wore intended, to carry tho con viction of genuineness to the unsus pecting. There wore highly lauda tory speeches, some of them from mon whose hearts were not all in sympathy with their own utterances, but these wero taken at full face vtilue by the great majority of those ' who filled the galleries set apart for visitors just as they will bc by thc masses of the Republicans through out the country, and there was a sur face harmony as thick as a London fog. This harmony was referred to by many of the speaker? ns more than making up for thc absence of real enthusiasm, which among them selves they deeply deplored. The Platform. After reciting tho alleged evil re sults of Democratic rule thc platform Hays : Wo met these unhappy conditions vigorously, effectively and at once. Wo replaced a Democratic tariff law, based on free trade principles an<) garnished with sectional protec tion, by a consistent protective tariff, and industry, freed from oppression and st i ululated by the encourage ment of wiso laws, has expanded to a degree never before known, has conquered new markets and has cre ated a volume of exports which has surpassed imagination. Under the Dingley tariff labor has been fully employed, wages have risen and all industries have revived and pros pered. We firmly established the gold standard which was then menaced with destruction. Confidence re turned to business and with confi dence an unexampled prosperity. For deficient revenues, supple mented by improvident issues of bonds, we gave the country an in come which produced a large surplus and which enabled us only four years after tho Spanish war had closed to remove over one hundred millions of annual war taxes, reduce the public debt and lower the interest charges of the government. The public credit, which had been HO lowered that in time of peace a Democratic administration made large loans at extravagant rates of interest in order to pay current ex penditures, rose under Republican administration to its highcHt point and enabled us to borrow at 2 per cent, oven in time of war. Wc refused to palter longer with the miseries of Cuba. We fought a quick and victorious war with Spain. We Het Cuba free, governed the island for three yeais, and then gave it to the Cuban people with order restored, with ample revenues, with education and public health estab lished, free from debt and connected with the United States by wise pro visions for our mutual interests. We have organized the govern ment of Porto Rico, and its people now enjoy peace, freedom, order and prosperity. In the Philippines we have sup pressed insurrection, established order and given to life and property a Hecurity never known lhere indore. Wc have organized civil government, made it effective and strong in ad ministration and have conferred upon the people of those islands the largPHt civil liberty they have ever enjoyed. l'lie possession of a route for an Isthmian Canal, HO long thc dream of American statesmanship, ?H now an accomplished fact. Thc great work of connecting the Pacific and Atlan tic by a canal is at last begun, and it is due to tho Republican party. We havo passed lawH which will bring the arid lands of tho United States within the area of cultivation. We have reorganized the army and put it in the highest state of efli ciencey. We have passed lawH for the im provement and support of the militia. We have pushed forward tho build ing of the navy, the defence and pro tection of our honor and our interests. Our ad m i M i' i ra i ion of the great department of tim government has been perfect and efficient, and wher ever wrong-doing has been discov ered the Republican administration has not hesitated to probe tho evil and bring offenders to justice with our regard to party or political ties. Ry our possession of the Philip pinen we were enabled to take prompt nnd effective action in tho relief ot thc legations at I'ekln and a decisive part in preventing the partition and proHorving the integrity of China. Laws enacted by the Republican party, which thc Democratic party failed to enforce, and vvhich were in tended for the protection of the pub lic against the unjust discrimination or the illegal encroachment of v?Ht aggregations of capital, have been fearlcHsly enforced by a Ropublioan President and new laws insuring rea sonable publicity OH to the operations of great corporations and providing additional remedies for tho preven tion of discrimination in freight rates have been passed by a Republican Congress. In this record of achievement dur ing ihe past eight years may bo read the pledges which tho Republican party has fulfilled. We promise to continue these policies and wo de clare our constant adherence to tho following principles : Protection, which guards and de velops our industries, is a cardinal policy of the Republican party. The PH uecoii ut homo ami i ibroHd. NV? insist upon Un* main, .enanco of Cue prii uiplee of oroteo Lion, and, therefore, ratee ot duty shou'd be readjusted only whet eon* ilitions have HO changed that the publie interest demands their alter ation, but this work eannot safely be committed to any other hands than those of the Hvpvblioan party. To entrust it to the Democratic party is to invite disaster. Whether, as in 1892, tho Democratic party declared the protective tariff unconstitutional, or whether it demands tariff roform or tariff revision, ita real object is always the destruction of tbe pro tective system. However speoious the name, the purpose is ever the sinne Democratic tariff has always been followed by business adversity ; a Kepublioan tariff by business pros perity. To a Republican Congress und a Republican President this great question can bo safely entrusted. When the only free trade country among tho great nations agitates a return to protection the chief pro tective country should not falter in maintaining it. We have extended widely our for eign markets, and we believe in tho adoption of ali practicable methods (or their further extension, including commercial reciprocity, wherever reciprocal arrangements eau be effected consistent with the princi ples of protection and without injury to American agriculture, American labor or any American industry. We believe it to bo the duty of the Republican party to uphold tho gold standard and tho integrity and value of our national currency. Tho maintenance of the gold standard established by the Republican party cannot be safely committed to thc Democratic party, which resisted its adoption and bas uevor given any proof since that time of belief in it or lidelity to it. While every other industry has prospered under tho fostering aid of Republican legislation, American shipping, engaged in foreign trade, tn com potion with tho low cost of construction, low wages and heavy subsidies of foreign governments, has not tor many years received from the government of tho United States adequate encouragement of any kind. We therefore favor legislation which will encourage and build up the American merchant marino and we cordially approve tho legislation of tho last Congress which created tho merchant marine commission to investigate and report upon this sub ject. A navy powerful enough to defend the United ?Stat es against any attack, to uphold the Monroe doctrine and watch over our commerce, is essen tial to the safety and tho welfare of thc American people. To maintain such a navy is the lixed policy ol thc Republican party. We cordially approve the attitude of 1'resident Roosevelt and Congress in regard to the exclusion of Chinese labor and promise a continuance of the Republican policy in that direc tion. Tho civil service law was placed on the statute books by the Republican party, which lias always sustained it, and we renew our former declara tions that it shall be thoroughly and honestly enforced. Wc arc always mindful of the country's debt to the soldiers and sailors of tho United States, and wc believe in making ample provision for them and in the liberal adminis tration of tho pension laws. We favor the peaceful settlement of international differences by arbi tration. Wc commend the vigorous efforts made by the administration to pro tect American citizens in foreign lands and pledge ourselves to in sist upon the just and equal protec tion of all our citizens abroad. It is the unquestioned duty of the govern ment to procure for all our citizens, without distinction, thc rights of travel and sojourn in friendly coun tries, and wc declare ourselves in favor of all proper efforts tending to that end. Our great interests and our grow ing commerce in the Orient render the condition of China of high im portance to thc United States. We cordially commend the policy pur sued in that direction by the Con gress and President Roosevelt. Wc favor such Congressional action as shall determine whether by special discriminations thc elective franchise in any State has been un constitutionally limited, and, if such is the case, we demand that repre sentation in Congress and in thc electoral college shall be proportion ately reduced, as directed by thc Constitution of the United States. Combinations of capital and labor are thc results of tho economic movement of the age, but neither must bu permitted to infringe upon the rights and interests of the peo ple. Such combinations, when law fully formed, for lawful purposes, are alike entitled to the protection of the laws, but both aro subject to thc laws and neither can bc permitted to break them.

Presideut Kooeevelt brought to the great responsibilities thus sadly forced upon him a olenr head, a brave heart, an earnest patriotism and high ideals of publio duty and publiu service. True to the princi ples of the Republican party, and to the policies which that party had declared, he has aleo showu himselt ready for every emergency, and bah met uew and vital questions with ability and with success. Tho confidence of the people in his justice, inspired by his public career, euabled him to render per sonally au inestimable sorvice lo the country by bringing about a settle ment of the coal strike, whioh threat ened such disastrous results at tlx opening of winter in 1902.

The country mae known that the public credit and thc national currency were nb Bolutely safe in the hands of thc administration. In tho enforce nient of the laws he has shown not only courage, but tho wisdom which understands that to permit laws to bc violated or disregarded opens tho door to anarchy, while lin just enforcement of thc law is th ?soundest conservatism. He has held firmly to thc fundamental American doctrine that all men must obey the law, that there must bc no distinction between rich and poor, between strong and weak, but that justice and equal protection under the law must bc scoured to every citizen without regard to race, creed or condition. His ad ministration has been throughout vigorous and honorable, high minded and patriotic. Wc commend it without reservation to thc considerate judgment of the American people.

Walhalla Drug Co., Seneca Pharmacy. Deadly Work of Lightning al Toccoa. As thc result of lightning during a thunder shower on Tuesday after* noon of last week, at the quarry of tho Toccoa Hock Crushing Company, three miles west of Tooooa, Oa., on thc main linc of the Southern Hail way, one man is dead, another is said to be dying, four are seriously in jured and several others are slightly injured. The men were .cady to set off 21 blasts. This is done by elec tricity from a battery at a safe dis tance from tho quarry. A wire con neots the battery with each hole in the rock in which dynamite has been placed. About fifteen men had just fin ished adjusting thc wires lo the twenty-four blast shots. As tho mon were beginning lo move away in order that tho blast might be set off there came a Hash of lightning and at once the air was filled with rook. Tho lightning had sent an electric current along the wire to tho dyna mite in the blast holes and the twenty-four wero set off at once, showering down rock over thc mon. Warrent Skinner, colored, of Ml. Airy, killed. John House, of Toc coa, had ono leg crushed and his other leg fractured. Physicians say he will live only a few hours. Syl vester Watkins, colored, had his leg crushed and other bruises. Mitch Prather, colored, had his leg badly crushed and amputation was neces sary.

An a teacher in our common schools for more thou teu yearn, we nave bad foreed upon us more tbun once the painful fact that a majority of our young people are grossly ig norant of Scripture. Not intro quently a pupil, bright in other lines, will be densely ignorant of the Bible. Nor have they read it sufficiently to have become familiar with its style, nor have its priceless passages fixed themselves in thoir hearts and memo? ries. Wo have found thom utterly unable to distinguish a familiar pro verb of Solomon from a popular say ing of Poor Richard, and often they ooufound a beautiful, widely-used passage of Scripture with tho writ ings of uninspired mon. The igno rance of Scripture is widespread-it is appalling-it is tho crime of the century. Tho ohuroh must faoo this palpable, though unpleasant faot, and in tho graoo and wisdom of God mus'solve this problem of the cen tury. Bible study should be tho all im portant study of youth. Viewed merely as a part of a liberal educa tion, a kuowledge of the Bible is a necessity. No man eau lay olaim to culture, who has not made a syste matic and thorough study of the Scriptures of God. A thorough knowledge of God's Word may not bo essential to salvation, but to get all tho light God is willing to give us from Revelation is our duty to Hun, to our fellowmen and lo ourselves. A knowledge of Scripture, where it is tho servant of love and humanity, honors God as its Divine Author, en larges our minds, strengthens our con victions, makes our religion an intel ligent faith, instead of a blind super stition, enables us to vindicate the truth, when impuned, and is indis pensable to a healthy roligious lifo. M ?y not this ignorance of Scripture bc tho cause of the low state of piety in tho church, tho lethargy in evan gelical work, tho lack of cotupctrnt, consecrated teachers in the home and in tho Sabbath school, and tho falling away in tho nutnbor of candi dates for tho ministry? In tho days of gooil King Josiah, God blessed Israel beoauso there was a rovival of thc study of the Book of tho Law. Thc hope of tho church is its youth, tho hopo of the youth is its faith in thc Christ of Calvary as rovonlod in tho Soripturos of God. Our youth have UO intelligent, helpful, vital knowledge of Scripture. How shall this ignoranco bo combattcd ? How lhall a knowledge of thc Word bc tn ado to cover tho earth as the waters DOVer tho deep ? Tho first and thc best place to teach the Scriptures is thc homo. Moses says, "Thou shalt Leach them diligently unto thy chil dren." Lois and Eunice taught thc mild Timothy in the Holy Scriptures. Tho command of God and the vows :>f the church arc upon us to train Mir children in the knowledge of his truth. What arc thc facts? Parents do not take time to give Scriptural in trudion to their children, or arc svholly incompetent to do so. Tho ihild may bo required to road a chapter in tho Bible on Sabbath 3vcning. Without any guiding and encouraging help ho docs this in a barren way. Ono hour's listless reading of the Scriptures a week, fifty-two a year will deepen but little tito's knowledge of thc Word. Another means of teaching tho Scriptures is through tho Sabbath iOhool. This is a church service for the critical and devotional study of ibo Bible for moral and religious in trudion, and for thc worship of the true Cod. It is a most excellent method of training tho young and ignorant in tho duties wc owe to Liod and to our neighbor. Wc must not only read thc Bible to get a knowledge of it, but we must study it, and a good place to study it is in ibo home and in thc Sabbath school. What aro tho facts? Possibly on an ?voragc thc Sabbath school meets thirty times a year for Bible study. Tho average pupil spends forty-live minutes in preparing and reciting thc lesson. In the.courso of a Sabbath school year he would be engaged in [Jible study 1,850minutes,or twenty two and*a half hours. Let me ask, now much Latin or algebra could bo [earned by a study of twenty-two ind a half hours a year? Then the ordinary Sabbath school teacher is incompetent ; ho has made no diligent, thorough study of thc Scripture. Ho cannot teach what no does not know. His head may bo right, but his light, is dim. Thc pulpitis another divinely ap pointed method for extending a Knowledge of tho Truth. The min istry, ns a whole, is cultured and competent. On an average a man may hear forty sermons a year of ,hirty minutes each. Twenty hours i year is not sufficient to givo ono borough knowledgo of His Word. [)ur remedy is teach thc Bible earn ?stly and continuously in the home, in thc Sabbath school and in tho pulpit, and thon supple ont and re inforce those methods by having tho Bible taught in our common schools >y competent, spiritually-minded .cachera, who will teach it with sys em and thoroughness, with lovo and .overence. With the Bible taught >y this fuller system there will be rn wakening in the next generation ; louies will have scripturally trained >arcnts, and Sabbath, schools will ?avo competent Bible teachers. If our churches woro filled with a routh having abundant knowledgo if Ilia truth tho places of their ibodcs would become "too strait or them," and they, with a "love of Jhrist constraining them" would go Orth in tho untiring spirit of Chris tan enterprise, spreading a knowl idgo of tho Lord over tho whole sarth. With such pillars and polished itones tho templo of the Lord would io beautiful. Blessed with such in elligent supporters of tho causo of Christ, tho church would bo strong or lier Lord's work at homo and ibroad.-J. Marion Mooro. CASTOR IA For Infants and Children.

The Confer ence of the American Medical Society was startled Iud week by the an nouncement of ono of its members, Prof. Winfield Ayres, of tho New York Post-Graduate Hospital, that he had discovered a method by which Bright's disease-hitherto considered incurable-might be successfully treated in its earliest stages and that further investigation may end in a cure at any stage.
