done until the meeting tonight. To
night the district delegates and dele

platform adopted.
The district delegates were: First,

thing in a newspaper that interests
people more than anything else is
something about live people. Upon
the theory, then, that “the proper
study of mankind is man,” I will
during the summer give to the read
ers of this correspondence a number
of sketches of some of the bright
young Democrats who came to the
front in the Fifty-eighth Congress,
and who deserve more than a passing
notice in democratic correspondence.
In this connection I may mention
that one of the brightest young de
mocrats who developed in the Fifty-
eighth Congress, and who attracted
the favorable attention of the old-
timers, is “Boh” Lamar, as he is call
ed by his many friends here, of the
16th Missouri District, the tall syca
more of southern Missouri. The Hon.
“Boh” reminds one of the pictures of
Abraham Lincoln in his youth, and
he possesses many of the mental
characteristics of Lincoln, notably
the old-fashioned, hard common sen
se, so rare now a days in most public
men. Lamar is a hard student and
an indefatigable worker. He has,
during this session, secured the pas
sage of two important and much need
ed laws of a general character, and
of immediate benefit to his district,
and also several bills of a private
character. He is a forcible and elo
quent speaker, and his speeches in
the House always command an audi
ence. Last January he delivered a
speech in the House on the tariff and
the farmer, that brought forth most
favorable comment from his collea
gues and doubtless will be widely dis
tributed as one of the campaign docu
ments during the summer and fall.
Mr. Lamar is always in his seat and
attentive to his duties, and if his dis
trict fails to get its rights “Bob” La
mar will be found on the firing line
asking why. The people of his dis
trict will compliment their own in-
eligence by keeping him here where
he will grow to be one of the strong
men of the house.
* • •
Another strong man who developed
here during the late session is the
Hon. John F. Wilson, the delegate
from Arizona. His speech on the
statehood hill was one of the strong
deliverances of the session. He con
clusively showed up the hypocricy
and lying deceit of the republican ma
jority in their attempt to force a bill
through .congress that would make
two states out of Oklahoma and the
Indian Territory, as one , and New
Mexico and Arizona as the other.
the arbitrary will and pleasure of the
piesident.
For the barrenness of the session
the democratic minority of the house
bears no resposibility. On the con
trary, it is chiefly due to their vigi
lance under the inspiration of their
able leader that the republican ma
jority in congress precipitately closed
the session with their schemes sus
pended in the air. There were all the
old bills, and some new ones, for
steamship subsidies, restraint of im-
