arer was when I was a candidate.
Tbe reasons that made tbe election of
a Democrat desirable were stronger In
1900 than in 1896; and tbs reasons
that make tho election of tho Demo
cratic candidate deeirable are stronger
in 1904 than they were in 1900,
BLACK'S BPBBCH ON BOPOBVBLT.
The gentleman who preoented Hew
York's candidate at tbe Chicago cm
rentlon dwelt upon tbe danger of
miUtarisas, and did not overstate the
dangers. Let me quote tbe moat re
markable passage that ever occurred
oi t|Mt was ever found in the speech
ol womlnatioo of any candidate for
prealdeni Ex-Got. Black of Hew
York, In presenting the name of
Theodore Boooerelt to tbo Republican
convention, need these words:
'The fate of nations is still decided
by their wars. You may talk of or
derly tribunals and learned referees.
You may sing in your schools tbe gen
tle praises Of tbo quiet life. You may
strike from your books the last note
of every martial anthem, and yet out
In* the smoke and thunder will always
bo tho tramp of hones and the silent,
rigid, upturned fiioes. Men may pro
phecy and woman pray, but peace will
coma bore to abfda forever in this
earth only whan tbo dreams of child
hood are tbo accepted charts to guide
the destinies of men. Brents are num-
borless and mighty, and no man oan
tell which wire runs around the world.
The nation basking today in tbe quiet
of contentment and repose may still
bo on a deadly circuit end tomorrow
wrltbing in tbo toils of war. This la
the Urns when great figures moat be
kept In front. If tho prenure is great
the material to resist It must bo gran-
i Its and iron."
'MILITARISM A MMNACB.
This la an eulogy of war. * th‘s is a
declaration that the time hoped for,
prayed for,-of perpetual peaoe will
bo vet come, thus eulogising the doc
trine of brute force and gtvlrg denial
• to tbe hopw of the race. And this
president, a candidate for reelect]on,
la preoaoted as tho embodiment of that
ideal, tbo granite and the iron, to rep
naont tbe new Idea of militarism.
, Do you aay yon want to defeat tbe
military Idea? Friends of tbe south
We had to surrendsr
things that wo wanted In the
forita. They bad to

But by mutal conererion and mutual
surrender we agreed upon a platform
and wa stand un that platform.
But* my friends, we need more than
a platform. We have to nominate a
tjpket, and that Is tbe work of this
convention. Had yon come to this
convention instructed for aay man to
the extent of a majority, I not only
would not have asked you to dlsr gard

oould have prevented It permitted you

DID NOT ATTEMPT TO DICTATB.
I have not come to ask anything of
this oon vention. Nebraska asks noth
ing but to be permitted to flghtrthe
battles of Democracy. Soma of yon
have called me a dictator. It la falsa
You know it was falsa How have I
tried to dictate? I have suggested
that I thought certain things ought
to be done. Have not you exercised
the same privilege? Why bavS I cot
a right to suggest? (A voice:
have.") Because I was your candi
date am I now stopped from ever
making suxKefeUonsf ^Criea of "No!
Mo!")
Why, air, if that condition went
with a nomination for tbe presidency,
no man worthy to ba president would
ever accept a nomination, for the right
of a man to bavs an opinion and to
express it la more important and sa
cred than tbs bolding of any office,
however high. ' I have my opinion
about the platform. I make' my ait#?
geetlona. Not all of them were re*
woelved. I would like to have seen
tbe Kaosas City platform reaffirmed,
am not ashamed of that platform,
believe in it now, as I believed in it
when 1 was running upon It. Toen I
was your candidate, but the people in
the Democratic purty did not agree
with me, and their will was supreme.
When they veto my suggestions I
have to soerpt. There is no other
court which I can appeal to. I have
oot attempted to dictate about cxndi-
datoe.

I have not asked tbe Democrats of
40 years ago; they will ask wbare does
ba stand today In thenar?
PLUTOCRACY TBS ISSUE.

laaue In this oouotiy today la platoo-

aald that I have only one Idea, tin sil

MUST APPEAL TO CONSCIENCE.
If the Democratic party is to save
this country it must appeal to tbe con
science of the country. It most

the party .wRLoepataste a man—I care
not from what part he come—who is
not the oondldate of a faction, who is
not the candidate of an element, but
the candidate of a party, the party
will stand by him and will drive the
Republican party from power and save
this country.
My friends, I believe that yon could
tike a man from any southern State
who would go out and make a fight
that would appeal to Democrats, all
the Democrats who love Democratic
prtfaolplre and Republicans who begin
a delegate from Nebraska. I have not
confidence enough in my own opinion
to toll you that I can pick out the mao
and say that this man must ba nomi
nated or we shall lose. I have, I
think, a reasonable faith In my own
opinion; at least I have this faith:
that I would father accept my own.

such a man and I believe that he would
poll a million more vote* than tbe can

of a part of the party over tbe net of
the party.

of you, north, east or south, more
fears the triumph of that Idea than I

nation la to stand for, it is retrogres
aloe, not progression, ft Is the lower

the turnlnjg backward to tbe age of
forces More than that, it is a chal

tbe world and nothing lere.

that wap aung at Hla birth was:
“Peace on earth, good will toward

millions have given their Uvea. For
this doctrine of peaoe thousands have

You can go Into any State you please

when people oomq with a candidate
and tell us first that we must carry a
certain State, and that that man la tbe
only one wbo could, carry the State,
they do not put up a bond to deliver
the goods If they are accepted. And,
anyhow, a State that is so uncertain
that only one Democrat can carry It
cannot be relied upon In a great crisis.
Now, we have our platform. Ssleet
your candidate. If It ia the wish of
this convention that the standard
should be placed in the hands of the
gentlemen presented by California
(Hearst), the man who, though he has
money, pleads the cause of tbe people,
the man wbo is the beloved, I think I
can safely say, among laboring men
of all the candidates proposed, the one
who more than any other, represents
opposition to the trust question, well
and good.

THE STORY REPEATED.
A dispatch from St. Petersburg
says a special dispatch from Ta Tche
Klao dated July 14 repeats the ac
counts of the storming of Port Arthur
July 10 and saying thap the Russians
assumed tbe cffeoslve and attacked
with the bayonet. The Japanese re
tired in the wildest disorder. The
Obfoere estimate the Japanese losses
at 22,000. The spirit of the Japanese,
tbe dispatch says, is sinking as the
result of the Port Arthur engage
ment. Dysentery is epidemic at Feng
Wang Cheng and there are many
deaths dally.
LOSS HEAVILY. r
A dispatch from St. Pet rsborg says
tbat tbe Japanese were heavily de
feated is not doubti d here, hut Id the
absence of further Information tbe
extent of the dls?s > er tbat befell them
Is beginning to be seriously question
ed. Definite news has been received
from Viceroy Alexleff’s headquarters
at Mukden that a week before tbe
engagement at Port Arthur, Maj.
Gen. Eork administered a severe de
feat on the Japanese on July 4 and
July 5, driving them from the heights
commanding "Lunsantan pass with a
loss of 2,000. This is considered here
as proof that there baa been bevvy
fighting before the fortress of Port
Arthur and as making the silence of
Tcklo regarding It all the more s'g-
nlttcant.
THE NEWS CONFIRMED.
A dispatqh to a news agency from
St. Petersburg says the war office ah-
nounces the receipt of a dispatch from
Port Arthur confirming the report
tbat tbe Japanese sustained consider
able losses on July 11, the fxact parti
culars of which have not yet bean as
certained. According to the dispatch
the Russians recaptured all tbe posi
tions lately taken by tbe Japanese.
In the fighting at the right flink of
the line of defenses of Port Arthur,
July 3 to July 6, the Russians drove
back tbe Japanese and occupied tbe
east bank of tbe Lunsantan and the
heights commanding Lunsantan pass.
The Japanese losses were about 2,000.
Those of the Russians were insignifi
