THE CHICAGO DAILY NEWS 



ALMANAC 

AND YEAR-BOOK 



FOR 



I 



95 



COMPILED BY JAMES LANGLAND, M. A. 



ISSUED BY 
THE CHICAGO DAILY NEWS COMPANY 

[Copyright. 1904, by The Chicago Daily News Co.] 



PREFACE. 



The Daily News Almanac and Year Book for 1905, like the 
twenty volumes preceding it, is intended to be a handy and com- 
prehensive book of reference for busy people. It aims to answer 
questions relating to politics, commerce, education, history, chro- 
nology and many other subjects briefly and correctly; to supply 
information that cannot in all cases be readily secured elsewhere, 
and to supplement encyclopedias and similar publications by sum- 
marizing and recording current events of importance. In seek- 
ing to do this the world has been included within the scope of the 
book, but the needs of the average American have been kept 
steadily in view. The data to be found on the following pages 
relate for the most part to the United States, but no country of 
any consequence has been slighted, as will be seen by referring to 
the index at the end of the volume. The usual amount of space 
has been devoted to information of more particular interest to 
residents of the central west, of Illinois and of Chicago.

UNITED STATES CIVIL SERVICE. 



UNITED STATES CIVH SERVICE. 



(Civil-service act approved Jan. 16, 1883.) 



Officers Three commissioners are appointed 
by the president to assist him in classify- 
ing the government offices and positions, 
formulating rules and enforcing the law. 
Their office is in Washington, D. C. The 
chief examiner is appointed by the commis- 
sioners to secure accuracy, uniformity and 
justice in the proceedings of the examining 
boards. The secretary to the commission 
is appointed by the president. 

General Rules The fundamental rules gov- 
erning appointments to government posi- 
tions are found in the civil-service act it- 
self. Based upon these are many other 
regulations formulated by the commission 
and promulgated by the president from 
time to time as new contingencies arise. 
The present rules were approved March 
20, 1903, and went into effect April 15, 1903. 
In a general way they require that there 
must be free, open examinations of appli- 
cants for positions in the public service; 
that appointments shall be made from 
those graded highest in the examinations; 
that appointments to the service in Wash- 
ington shall be apportioned among the 
states and territories according to popula- 
tion; that there shall be a period (six 
months) of probation before any absolute 
appointment is made; that no person In 
the public service is for that reason obliged 
to contribute to any political fund or is 
subject to dismissal for refusing to so con- 
tribute; that no person in the public serv- 
ice has any right to use his official author- 
ity or influence to coerce the political ac- 
tion of any person. Applicants for positions 
shall not be questioned as to their polit- 
ical or religious beliefs and no discrimina- 
tion shall be exercised against or in favor 
of any applicant or employe on account of 
his religion or politics. The classified civil 
service shall Include all officers and em- 
ployes in the executive civil service of the 
United States except laborers and persons 
whose appointments are subject to con- 
firmation by the senate. 

Examinations These are conducted by 
boards of examiners chosen from among 
persons in government employ and are held 
twice a year in all the states and terri- 
tories at convenient places. In Illinois, 
for example, they are usually held at 
Cairo, Chicago and Peoria. The dates are 
announced through the newspapers or by 
other means. They can always be learned 
by applying to the commission or to the 
nearest postoffice or custom house. Those 
who desire to take examination are ad- 
vised to write to the commission in Wash- 
ington for the "Manual of Examinations," 
which is sent free to all applicants. It is 
revised semiannually to Jan. 1 and July 1. 
The January edition contains a schedule 
of the spring examinations and the July 
edition contains a schedule of the fall ex- 
aminations. Full information is given as 
to the methods and rules governing exam- 
inations, manner of making application, 
qualifications required, regulations for rat- 
ing examination papers, certification for 
and chances of appointment, and as far as 
possible it outlines the scope of the differ- 
ent subjects of general and technical ex- 
aminations. These are practical in char- 
acter and are designed to test the relative 



capacity and fitness to discharge the duties 
to be performed. It is necessary to obtain 
an average percentage of 70 to be eligible 
for appointment, except that applicants 
entitled to preference because of honorable 
discharge from the military or naval serv- 
ice for disability resulting from wounds or 
sickness incurred in the line of duty need 
obtain but 65 per cent. The period of eligi- 
bility is one year. 
Qualifications of Applicants No person will 



be examined who is not a citizen of tue 
s; who is not within the 
rescribed; who is physic 



United States; who is not within the age 
prescribed; who is physically 
disqualified for the service which he seeks; 



limitations 



who has been guilty of criminal, infamous, 
dishonest or disgraceful conduct; who 
has been dismissed from the public serv- 
ice for delinquency and misconduct or has 
failed to receive absolute appointment 
after probation; who is addicted to the 
habitual use of intoxicating liquors to ex- 
cess, or who has made a false statement 
in his application. The age limitations in 
the more imnortant branches of the public 
service are; Postoffice, 18 to 45 years; 
rural letter carriers, 17 to 55; internal rev- 
enue, 21 years and over; railway mail, 18 
to 35; lighthouse, 18 to 50; life saving, 18 
to 45; general departmental, 20 and over. 
These age limitations are subject to change 
by the commission. They do not apply 
to applicants of the preferred class. Ap- 
plicants for the position of railway mail 
clerk must be at least 5 feet 6 inches in 
height, exclusive of boots or shoes, and 
weigh not less than 135 pounds in ordinary 
clothing and have no physical defects. Ap- 
plicants for certain other positions have to 
come up to similar physical requirements. 

Method of Appointment Whenever a va- 
cancy exists the appointing officer makes 
requisition upon the civil-service commis- 
sion for a certification of names to fill the 
vacancy, specifying the kind of position 
vacant, the sex desired and the salary. 
The commission thereupon takes from the 
proper register of eliglbles the names of 
the three persons standing highest of the 
sex called for and certifies them to the ap- 
pointing officer who is required to make the 
selection. He may choose any one of the 
three names, returning the other two to 
the register to await further certification. 
The time of examination is not considered, 
as the highest in average percentage on the 
register must be certified first. If after a 
probationary period of six months the 
name of the appointee is continued on the 
roll of the department in which he serves 
the appointment is considered absolute. 

Removals No person can be removed from 
a competitive position except for such 
cause as will promote the efficiency of the 
public service and for reasons given in 
writing. No examination of witnesses nor 
any trial shall be required except in the 
discretion of the officer making the re- 
moval. 

Salaries Entrance to the departmental serv- 
ice is usually In the lowest grades, the 
higher grades being generally filled by pro- 
motion. The usual entrance grade is aboat 
$900, but the applicant may be appointed 
at $840, $760 or even $600.

of this period, or within two years there- 
after, proof of residence and cultivation 
must be established by four witnesses. The 
proof of settlement, with the certificate ol 
the register of the land office, Is forwarded 
to the general land office at Washington, 
from which a patent is issued. Final prool 
cannot be made until the expiration of five 
years from date of entry, and must be made 
within seven years. The government recog- 
nizes no sale of a homestead claim. After 
the expiration of fourteen months from date 
of entry the law allows the homesteader to 
secure title to the tract, if so desired, by 
paying for It in cash and making proof of 
settlement, residence and cultivation for 
that period. 

The law allows only one homestead privi- 
lege to any one person.

holiday in the District of Columbia, but 
the law is of no effect elsewhere.

WEATHER FORECASTS AND SIGNALS. 



The weather bureau of the United States 
department of agriculture publishes daily 
more than 100,000 weather bulletins, not 
counting the forecasts In the newspapers. 
Most of these bulletins are in the form 
of postal cards printed by postmasters 
from telegraphic' reports and sent by them 
to outlying towns for display at suitable 
points. There is also an elaborate system of 



redistribution by means of telephones and 
railroads from established centers, so that 
there are comparatively few accessible 
places which do not now receive dally 
weather forecasts within a very short time 
after the observers have completed their 
work. The old system of conveying informa- 
tion about the weather by means of flag 
displays is also in general use. 



No 1. 
White flag. 



EXPLANATION OF WEATHER FLAGS. 

NO. 2. No. 3. No. 4. No. 5. 

Slue flag. White and blue Black triangu- White flag with black 

flag- lar flag. square in center. 



BLUE 





Clear or Rain or snow. Local rain or Temperature. Cold wave, 

fair weather. snow. 

When No- * is placed above No. 1, 2 or 3 it Indicates warmer; when below, colder; 
when not displayed, the temperature is expected to remain about stationary. During the late 
spring and early fall the cold-wave flag is also used to indicate anticipated frosts. 

EXPLANATION OF STORM-WARNING FLAGS. 







Northwest winds. Southwest winds. Northeast winds. Southeast winds. "Hurricane''signal 
A red flag with a black center indicates that a storm of marked violence is expected. The 
pennants displayed with the flags indicate the direction of the wind: Red, easterly (from 
northeast to south); white, westerly (from southwest to north) The pennant above the flag 
indicates that the wind is expected to blow from the northerly quadrants; below, from south- 
erly quadrants. 

By night a red light indicates easterly winds and a white light above a red light westerly 
winds. 

Two red flags, with black centers, displayed one above the other, indicate the expected 
approach of tropical hurricanes, and also of those extremely severe and dangerous storms 
which occasionally move across the lakes and northern Atlantic coast: Hurricane warnings 
are not displayed at night. 

THERMOMETERS COMPARED. 

Fahrenheit to Reaumur Subtract 32, mul- 
tiply by four-ninths. 



There are three kinds of thermometers, 
with varying scales, in general use through- 
out the world the Fahrenheit, Reaumur and 



Centigrade. The freezing and boiling points 
on their scales compare as follows: 

Thermometer. Freezing pt. Hnilintipt. 

Fahrenheit 32 degrees 212 degrees 

Reaumur zero 80 degrees 

Centigrade zero 100 degrees 

The degrees on one scale are reduced to 
their equivalents on another by these formu- 
las: 



Fahrenheit to Centigrade Subtract 32. 
multiply by flve-rinths. 

Keaumur to Fahrenheit Multiply by nine, 
fourths, add 32. 

Keaumur to Centigrade Multiply by five- 
fourths.- 

Centigrade to Fahrenheit Multiply by 



nine-flfths, add 32. 

Centigrade to Reaumur

The "rate" indicates the fighting value and is the same for both battleships and cruisers; 
that is to say, a cruiser of the second rate is equal in fighting strength to a battleship of the 
same rate. The losses in the Russian and Japanese navies are not included in the list. The 
number of warships lost by each in the war is shown elsewhere in this volume.

Area of Porto Rico is approximately 3,600 and of the Philippine islands 114.000 square miles. 

NOTE The areas as given above were computed under the direction of Henry Gannett, 
geographer of the United States geological survey, for the census office. In some cases the 
Figures vary from those given by the general land office, but they are believed to be as nearly 
correct as possible. In the case of states bordering on the great lakes the water surface of 
the latter has been included in the computation of areas by the land office and excluded by 
Mr. Gannett. This will account in lfln;e measure for the apparent discrepancies.

THE FLORENCE MAYBRICK CASE. 



Miss Florence Elizabeth Chandler. Amer- 
ican, was married to James Maybrick of 
Liverpool, England, in London, July 27, 1881. 
She was 18 and he more than 40. In the 
spring of 1889 Mr. Maybrick became ill and 
on the llth of May died. His brothers Inves- 
tigated the circumstances of bis death and 
had Mrs. Maybrick arrested on the charge 
of poisoning him with arsenic. Her trial 
began July 31 and ended Aug. 7 in a ver- 
dict of guilty, owing mainly to the severe 
charge of the judge, Sir James F. Stephen. 
She was sentenced to death, but there was 



a popular outcry against the verdict and 
at the instance of Queen Victoria the sen- 
tence was commuted Aug. 22 to penal 
servitude for life. Continued efforts on her 
behalf were made by influential Americans 
and others, including the duchess of Bed- 
ford, and Feb. 4, 1904, it was announced 
that Mrs. Maybrk-k had been removed from 
Aylesworth prison to the home of a reli- 
gious sisterhood at Trtiro, England. There 
she remained in seclusion until July 20, 
when she was permitted to depart on 
"ticket of leave.

CARNEGIE INSTITUTION OF WASHINGTON 



(Prepared by William 
The Carnegie Institution of Washington 
was incorporated Jan. 4, 1902, and endowed 
by Andrew Carnegie with $10,000,000. The 
purpose of the Institution is thus declared 
by its founder: 

"It is proposed to found in the citv of 
Washington an institution which, with the 
co-operation of institutions now or here- 
after established, there or elsewhere, shall 
in the broadest and most liberal manner 
encourage investigation, research and dis- 
covery show the application of knowledge 
to the improvement of mankind, provide 
such buildings, laboratories, books and ap- 
paratus as may be needed, and afford in- 
struction of an advanced character to stu- 
dents properly qualified to profit thereby." 
Under the original organization the en- 
dowment and the conduct of the institution 
were intrusted to a board of twenty-seven 
trustees. But under the act of congress 
approved April 28, 1904, certain ex-officio 
trustees were dispensed with and the board 
now consists of the following twenty four 
persons:

The general conference of the methodist 
episcopal church, held in May, 1904, in Los 
Angeles, Cal., placed six bishops on the 
superannuated list and elected eight new

bishops, one of whom resigned. It also 
elected four missionary bishops. It voted 
against restoring the time limit on pastor- 
at"8 and against changing the law as to 
amusements. The consolidation of benevo- 
lent societies was provided for and the 
creation of a church temperance society 
was decided upon. A report was adopted 
declaring that there was no sufficient foun- 
dation for the allegations that there was 
disloyalty in some or the theological schools 
to the doctrinal standards of the church. 

The general superintendents placed upon 
the superannuated list were Bishops Mer- 
rill. Andrews, Foss, Vincent, Walden and 
Mallalieu. The new superintendents elect- 
ed were J. F. Berry, Henry Soellmeyer, 
William F. McDowell, J. W. Bashford, 
William Burt, L. B. Wilson, T. B. Neely 
and J. R. Day, the last named declining to 
serve. The missionary bishops elected were 



W. F. Oldbam and J. E. Robinson for 
southern Asia, I. B. Scott for Africa and 
M. C. Harris for Japan.

PRESBYTERIAN CREED REVISED. 
The general assembly of the presbyterian 
church was held in Los Angeles, Cal., begin- 
ning May 21. 1903. Rev. R. F. Coyle of Den- 
ver, Col., was moderator. Two acts of the 
assembly were of especial importance. One 
was the adoption of the revised creed and 
the other the passing of a resolution for- 
bidding the marriage of persons divorced 
upon other grounds than those recognized 
by the church. Eleven articles in the con- 
fession of faith were changed. Those con- 



cerning election, and infant salvation now 
read: 

"That, concerning those who are saved in 
Christ, the doctrine of God's eternal decree 
is held In harmony with the doctrine of 
His love to all mankind. His gift of His 
Son to be the propitiation for the sins of 
the whole world, and His readiness to be- 
stow His saving grace on all who seek It; 
that concerning those who perish the doc- 
trine of God's eternal decree is held in har- 
mony with the doctrine that God desires 
not the death of any sinner, but has pro- 
vided in Christ a salvation sufficient for 
all, adapted for all and freely offered in the 

fospel for all; that men are fully responsi- 
le for their treatment of God r a gracious 
offer; that this doctrine hinders no man 
from accepting that offer, and that no man 
is condemned except on the ground of his 
sin. 

"Also that It is not to be regarded as 
teaching that any who die in infancy are 
lost. We believe that all dying in infancy 
are Included in the election of grace and 
are regenerated and saved by Ctoriat. 
through the Spirit, Who works where and 
tow He pleases."

ity places the number of Roman catholics 
In Europe, America and Australia at 223,- 
690.000; protestants, 157,050,000, and Greeks,

wide and is 420 feet above the water. It 
was built in 1904 by an English bridge com- 
pany for the Uhodeslan railways trust.

THE GENERAL SLOCTJM DISASTER. 



Date June 15, 1904. 
Number of Dead 958. 
Identified Dead 897. 
Unidentified Dead 61. 
Missing 62. 
Injured 180. 
Rescued Uninjured 235. 

By the burning of the excursion steamer 
General Slocum In the East river, New 
York, June 15, 1904, 958 persons lost their 
lives and 180 others were badly injured. 
The disaster occurred within a short dis- 
tance of the place where on June 28, 1880, 
the steamboat Seawamhaka burned with a 
loss of sixty-two lives. 

The General Slocum had been chartered 
for the annual excursion of the Sunday 
school of St. Mark's German Lutheran 
church at 323 6th street and left the pier 
at the foot of East 3d street about 9 
o'clock in the morning bound for Locust 
grove, a picnic resort on Long island. The 
tickets sold numbered less than 1,000. but 
this did not include the younger children 
and infants, of whom there were about 400 
on board. Most of the excursionists were 
women and children. The boat, commanded 
by Capt. William Van Schaick, proceeded 
up East river, passed safely through Hell 
Gate and had reached a point opposite 
130th street when fire broke out in the for- 
ward part of the hold, where the storage 
room was located. The appearance of smoke 
and flames immediately caused a panic and 
the passengers rushed to the rear of the 
boat and to the hurricane deck above. The 
captain deemed it unwise to attempt to 
turn the vessel and make for the "sunken 
meadows" near at hand, and instead con- 
tinued directly ahead toward North Brother 
Island, a mile or more distant. 

The flames, fanned by the wind, were 
forced backward through the length of the 
boat and the terror-stricken excursionists 
struggled in vain to reach places of safety. 
Many women threw their children over the 
rail and jumped after them, others were 
trampled underfoot or forced overboard in 
the crush. The supports of the hurricane 
deck were burned through and gave way, 
precipitating the crowd upon It into the 
flames below, just as the steamer struck 



the beach. By this time tugboats and other 
river craft were hurrying to the rescue. 
One tug came close up to the side of the 
burning steamer and succeeded in taking 
off 155 of the survivors. Rowboats picked 
up others from the river and a few of the 
excursionists managed to reach the shore 
unaided. 

After the General Slocum struck the 
beadh she drifted downstream and finally 
brought up at Hunt's point, a mile away, 
where she burned to the water's edge. Of the 
415 rescued 180 were taken to hospitals. Most 
of them were suffering from burns or had 
broken limbs, the captain being one of the 
number. The bodies of the dead were taken 
from the river as fast as possible and con- 
veyed to the morgue at Bellevue hospital, 
but the work was not completed until 
three weeks had elapsed. Altogether 958 
bodies were recovered. Identification was 
difficult and in many cases impossible. 
Hundreds were reported missing, but most 
of these were found among the dead, of 
whom 897 were recognized and claimed. 
Sixty-one remained unidentified and it is 
assumed that these were the missing unac- 
counted for. It was, the worst disaster of 
the kind in American history. 

After a careful investigation the coroner's 
jury in the Bronx found a verdict holding 
the following persons criminally responsi- 
ble: Frank A. Barnaby, president of the 
Knickerbocker Steamboat company, owning 
the General Slocum: J. K. Atkinson, secre- 
tary of the company; Charles E. Hill, O. 
D. Evans, Robert K. Story, Floyd S. Cor- 
bin and Frank O. Dexter, directors of the 
company; Capt. William H. Van Schaick, 
commander of the Slocum: John A. Peaee 
for failure to properly equip the boat: Ed- 
ward Flanagan, mate, and Henry Lundberg, 
government inspector. It was found that 
the fire apparatus provided was wholly im- 
proper and unsuitable, that the crew was 
inefficient and undrilled in the use of the 
fire-extinguishing apparatus and that the 
number of good and available life preserv- 
ers on board was in-sufficient. 

The General Slocum was a side-wheel 
steamer of 1,284 tons and was built in 1891 
for the excursion business. 



LOSS OF THE NORGE. 



The steamship Norge of the Scandinavian- 
American line stnick a sunken rock In the 
Atlantic near Rockall reef, 290 miles north- 
west of Scotland, June 28, 1904, and sunk 
in less than half an hour. Of the 774 per- 
sons on board only 167 were rescued. The 
passengers numbered 711, of whom 144 were 
saved and 567 drowned. Of the crew, 23 
were saved and 40 lost. Those who escaped 
suffered great hardships, some of the boats 
not reaching land until several days after 
the shipwreck. Most of them were picked 
up by passing steamers and taken to Stor- 
noway, Scotland. 

Nearly all the passengers were emigrants 
bound from Norway, Denmark, Sweden and 
Russia for the United States. The Norge 
left Copenhagen June 22, and after touch- 



ing at Christiania and Christiansand, In 
Norway, sailed for New York. All went 
well until 7:45 o'clock Tuesday morning, 
when the vessel struck a submerged rock. 
The ship began to fill and in twenty min- 
utes went to the bottom. As many of the 
women and children and other passengers 
as possible were crowded Into the boats and 
a number of these got safely away from the 
sinking ship, though several were swamped. 
The captain went down with his vessel, but 
came to the surface and was saved. 

The Norge was built by A. Stephen & Sx>n, 
Glasgow, Scotland, in 1881, and was for- 
merly called Pieter de Coninck. It was of 
3.318 tons gross and 2,131 tons net register. 
The hull was of iron and the ship had six 
transverse bulkheads. 



GALVESTON SEA WALL. 



The Galveston sea wall, designed to pro- 
tect the city from the waters of the Gulf 
of Mexico and prevent another disaster like 
that of Sept. 8, 1900, was completed July 



29, 1904. It Is 17,593 feet long, 16 feet high, 

16 feet wide at the base and 5 feet at the 

top. It is built of concrete and cost $1,- 
198.318.

NATIONAL PARTY PLATFORMS IN 1904. 



SOCIALIST. 



(Chronologically arranged.) 

use of the producers; that the making of 



Adopted at Chicago May 5. 

The platform after declaring that the so- 
cialist party makes its appeal to the Amer- 
ican people as the defender and preserver 
of the idea of liberty and self-government 
in which the nation was born, to which 
idea the republican and democratic parties 
are utterly false, affirms that the socialist 
movement owes its birth and growth to that 
economic development or world-process 
which is rapidly separating a working or 
producing class from a possessing or capi- 
talist class. It says socialism means that 
all those things upon which the people in 
common depend shall by the people in com- 
mon be owned and administered. The plat- 
form then continues: 

"It means that the tools of employment 
shall belong to their creators and users; 
that all production shall be for the direct 



goods for profit shall come to an end; that 
we shall all be workers together, and that 
opportunities shall be open and equal to 
all men. 

"To the end that the workers may seize 
every possible advantage that may strength- 
en them to gain complete control of the 
powers of government, and thereby the 
sooner establish the co-operative common- 
wealth, the socialist party pledges itself 
to watch and work in both the economic 
and the political struggle for each suc- 
cessive immediate interest of the working 
class; for shortened days of labor and in- 
crease of wages; for the insurance of the 
workers against accident, sickness and lack 
of employment; for pensions for aged and 
exhausted workers; for the public owner- 
ship of the means of transportation, com- 
munication and exchange; for the gradu- 
ated taxation of Incomes, inheritances and

of franchise and land values, the proceeds 
to be applied to public employment and bet- 
tering the condition of the workers; for the 
equal suffrage of men and women; for the 
prevention of the use of the military against 
labor in the settlement of strikes; for the 
free administration of justice: for popular 
government, including initiative, referen- 
dum, proportional representation and the 
recall of officers by their constituents, and 
for every gain or advantage for the workers 
that may be wrested from the capitalist 
system and that may relieve the suffering 
and strengthen the hands of labor. We lay 
upon every man elected to any executive or 
legislative office the first duty of striving 
to procure whatever is for the workers' 
most immediate interest and for whatever 
will lessen the economic and political pow- 
ecs of the capitalist and increase the like 
powers of the worker. 

"But, in so doing, we are using these 
remedial measures as means to the one 
great end of the co-operative common- 
wealth. Such measures of relief as we 
may be able to force from capitalism are 
but a preparation of the workers to seize 
the whole powers of government, In order 
that they may thereby lay hold of the 
whole syst'-m of industry and thus come 
Into their rightful inheritance. 

"To this end we pledge ourselves, as the 
party of the working class, to use all po- 
litical power, as fast as it shall be in- 
trusted to us by our fellow workers, both 
for their immediate interests and for their 
ultimate and complete emancipation." 



REPUBLICAN. 

Adopted at Chicago June 22. 

Fifty years ago the republican party 
came into existence, dedicated, among other 
purposes, to the great task of arresting the 
extension of human slavery. In 1860 it 
elected its first president. During twenty- 
four of the forty-four years which have 
elapsed since the election of Lincoln the 
republican party has held complete control 
of the government. For eighteen more of 
the forty-four years It has held partial 
control through the possession of one or 
two branches of the government, while the 
democratic party during the same period 
has had complete control for only two years. 

This long tenure of power by the repub- 
lican party is not due to chance. It is a 
demonstration that the republican party has 
commanded the confidence of the American 
people for nearly two generations to a de- 
gree never equaled in our history and has 
displayed a high capacity for rule and gov- 
ernment, which has been made even more 
conspicuous by the incapacity and infirmity 
of purpose shown by its opponents. 

BECOBD SINCE 1897. 

The republican party entered upon its 
present period of complete supremacy in 
1897. We have every right to congratulate 
ourselves upon the work since then accom- 
plished, for it has added luster even to the 
traditions of the party which carried the 
government through the storms of civil 
war. 

We then found the country, after four 
years of democratic rule, in evil plight, op- 
pressed with misfortune and doubtful of 
the future. Public credit had been lowered, 
the revenues were declining, the debt was 
growing, the administration's attitude to- 
ward Spain was feeble and mortifying, the 
standard of values was threatened and un- 



certain, labor was unemployed, business 
was sunk in the depression which had suc- 
ceeded the panic of 1893, hope was faint 
and confidence was gone. 

We met these unhappy conditions vigor- 
ously, effectively and at once. We replaced 
a democratic tariff law based on free trade 
principles and garnished with sectional pro- 
tection by a consistent protective tariff, 
and industry, freed from oppression and 
stimulated by the encouragement of wise 
laws, has expanded to a degree never be- 
fore known, has conquered new markets 
and has created a volume of exports which 
has surpassed imagination. Under the Ding- 
ley tariff labor has been fully employed, 
wages have risen and all industries have 
revived and prospered. 

We firmly established the gold standard, 
which was then menaced with destruction. 
Confidence returned to business and with 
confidence an unexampled prosperity. 

For deficient revenues, supplemented by 
Improvident issues of bonds, we gave the 
country an income which produced a large 
surplus and which enabled us, only four 
years after the 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 so low- 
ered that in time of peace a democratic ad- 
ministration made large loans at extrava- 
gant rates of interest in order to pay cur- 
rent expenditures, rose under republican 
administration to its highest point and en- 
abled us to borrow at '2 per cent, even In 
time of war. 

We refused to palter longer with the 
miseries of Cuba. We fought a quick and 
victorious war with Spain. We set Cuba 
free, governed the island for three years 
and then gave it to the Cuban people, with 
order restored, with ample revenues, with 
education and public health established, 
free from debt and connected with the 
United States by wise provisions for our 
mutual Interests. 

We have organized the government of 
Porto Rico, and its people now enjoy peace, 
freedom, order and prosperity. 

In the Philippines we have suppressed In- 
surrection, established order and given to 
life and property a security never known 
there before. We have organized civil gov- 
ernment, made it effective and strong In 
administration and have conferred upon the 
people of those islands the largest civil 
liberty they have ever enjoyed. 

By our possession of the Philippines we 
were enabled to take prompt and effective 
action in the relief of the legations at Pe- 
kln and a decisive part in preventing the 
partition and preserving the integrity of 
China. 

The possession of a route for an isthmian 
canal, so long the "dream of American 
statesmanship, is now an accomplished 
fact. The great work of connecting the 
Pacific and Atlantic oceans by a canal is 
at last begun and it is due to the repub- 
lican party. 

We have passed laws which will bring 
the arid lands of the United States within 
the area of cultivation. We have reor- 
panizcd the army and put it in the high- 
est state of efficiency. \Ve have passed laws 
for the improvement and support of the 
militia. We have pushed forward the build- 
ing of the navy for the defense and the 
protection of our honor and our interests. 

Our administration of the great depart- 



128 



CHICAGO DAILY NEWS ALMANAC AND TEAR BOOK FOR 1905. 



ments of the government has been honest 
and efficient, and wherever wrongdoing has 
been discovered the republican administra- 
tion has not hesitated to probe the evil and 
bring offenders to justice, without regard to 
party or political ties. 

Laws enacted by the republican party 
which the democratic party failed to en- 
force and which were intended for the pro- 
tection of the public against the unjust 
discrimination or the illegal encroachment 
of vast aggregations of capital have been 
fearlessly enforced by a republican presi- 
dent, and new laws, insuring reasonable 
publicity as to the operation of great cor- 
porations and providing additional remedies 
for the prevention of discrimination in 
freight rates, have been passed by a repub- 
lican congress. 

POLICY OF PROTECTION. 

In this record of achievement during the 
past eight years may be read the pledges 
which the republican party has fulfilled. 
We propose to continue these policies, and 
we declare our constant adherence to the 
following principles: 

Protection, which guards and develops oar 
Industries, is a cardinal policy of the re- 
publican party. The measure of protection 
should always at least equal the difference 
in the cost of production at home and 
abroad. We insist upon the maintenance 
of the principles of protection and there- 
fore rates of duty should be readjusted only 
when conditions have so changed that the 
public interest demands their alteration. 

But this work cannot safely be commit- 
ted to any other hands than those of the 
republican party. To intrust it to the dem- 
ocratic party is to invite disaster. Whether, 
as in 1892, the democratic party declares 
the protective tariff unconstitutional, or 
whether it demands reform or tariff re- 
vision, its real object is always the de- 
struction of the protective system. How- 
ever specious the name, the purpose is ever 
the same. A democratic tariff has always 
been followed by business adversity, a re- 
publican tariff by business prosperity. To 
a republican congress and a republican 
president this great question can be safely 
intrusted. When the only free trade coun- 
try among the great nations agitates a re- 
turn to protection the chief protective coun- 
try should not falter in maintaining it. 
RECIPROCITY. 

We have extended widely OUT foreign 
markets, and we believe in the adoption of 
all practicable methods for their further ex- 
tension, including commercial reciprocity 
wherever reciprocal arrangements can be 
effected consistent with the principles of 
protection and without injury to American 
agriculture, American labor or any Amer- 
ican industry. 

We believe it to be the duty of the re- 
publican party to uphold the gold standard 
and the integrity and value of our national 
currency. The maintenance of the gold 
standard, established by the republican 
party, cannot safely be committed to the 
democratic party, which resisted its adop- 
tion and has never given any proof since 
that time of belief in it or fidelity to it. 

AMERICAN SHIPPING. 

While every other industry has prospered 
under the fostering aid of republican legis- 
lation, American shipping engaged in for- 
eign trade In competition with the low cost 
of construction, low wages and heavy sub- 
sidies of foreign governments has not for 



many years received from the government 
of the United States adequate encourage- 
ment of any kind. We therefore favor leg- 
islation which will encourage and build up 
the American merchant marine, and we 
cordially approve the legislation of the last 
congress, which created the merchant ma- 
rine commission to investigate and report 
upon this subject. 

UPBUILDING OK NAVY. 

A navy powerful enough to defend the 
United States against any attack, to up- 
hold the Monroe doctrine and watch over 
our commerce is essential to the safety and 
the welfare of the American people. To 
maintain such a navy is the fixed policy of 
the republican party. 

We cordially approve the attitude of 
President Roost-veil and congress in regard 
to the exclusion of Chinese labor and prom- 
ise a continuance of the republican policy 
in that direction. 

The civil-service law was placed on the 
statute books by the republican party, 
which has always sustained it, and we re- 
new our former declaration that it shall be 
thoroughly and honestly enforced. 

We are always mindful of the country's 
debt to the soldiers and sailors of the 
United States, and we believe in making 
ample provision for them and in the lib- 
eral administration of the pension laws. 

We favor the peaceful settlement of in- 
ternational differences by arbitration. 

We commend the vigorous efforts made 
by the administration to protect American 
citizens in foreign lands and pledge our- 
selves to Insist upon the just and equal 
protection of all, our citizens abroad. It is 
the unquestioned duty of the government to 
procure for all our citizens, without dis- 
tinction, the rights of travel and sojourn in 
friendly countries, and we declare ourselves 
in favor of all proper efforts tending to 
that. end. 

Our great interests and our growing com- 
merce in the orient render the condition of 
China of high importance to the United 
States. We cordially commend the policy 
pursued in that direction by the adminis- 
trations of President McKinley and Presi- 
dent Roosevelt. 

We favor such congressional action as 
shall determine whether, by special dis- 
criminations, the elective franchise in any 
state has been unconstitutionally limited, 
and if such is the case we demand that 
representation in congress and in the elec- 
toral college shall be proportionately re- 
duced as directed by the constitution of the 
United States. 

CONTROL OF TRUSTS. 

Combinations of capital and of labor are 
the results of the economic movement of 
the age, but neither must be permitted to 
infringe upon the rights and interests of 
the people. Such combinations when law- 
fully formed for lawful purposes are alike 
entitled to the protection of the laws, but 
both are subject to the laws and neither 
can be permitted to break them. 
M'KINLEY AND ROOSEVELT. 

The great statesman and patriotic Amer- 
ican, William McKinley, who was re- 
elected by the republican party to the 
presidency four years ago, was assassinated 
just at the threshold of his second term. 
The entire nation mourned his untimely 
death and did that justice to his great 
qualities of mind and character which his- 
tory will confirm and repeat. 



NATIONAL PARTY PLATFORMS. 



129 



The American people were fortunate in 
his successor, to whom they turned with a 
trust and confidence which have been fully 
justified. President Roosevelt brought to 
the great responsibilities thus sadly forced 
upon him a clear head, a brave heart, an 
earnest patriotism and high ideals of pub- 
lic duty and public service. True to the 
principles of the republican party and to 
the policies which that party had declared, 
he has also shown himself ready for every 
emergency and has met new and vital ques- 
tions with ability and with success. 

The confidence of the people in his jus- 
tice, inspired by his public career, enabled 
him to render personally an inestimable 
service to the country by bringing about a 
settlement of the coal strike, which threat- 
ened such disastrous results at the opening 
of winter in 1902. 

FOREIGN POLICY. 

Our foreign policy under his administra- 
tion has not only been able, vigorous and 
dignified, but in the highest degree success- 
ful. The complicated questions which arose 
in Venezuela were settled In such a way 
by President Roosevelt that the Monroe doc- 
trine was signally vindicated and the cause 
of peace and arbitration greatly advanced. 
His prompt and vigorous action in Panama, 
which we commend in the highest terms, 
not only secured to us the canal route, but 
avoided foreign complications which might 
have been of a very serious character. He 
has continued the policy of President Mc- 
Kinley in the orient, and our position in 
China, signalized by our recent commercial 
treaty with that empire, has never been so 
high. He secured the tribunal by which the 
vexed and perilous question of the Alaskan 
boundary was finally settled. 

Whenever crimes against humanity have 
been perpetrated which have shocked our 
people his protest has been made and our 
good offices have been tendered, but always 
with due regard to international obliga- 
tions. Under his- guidance we find our- 
selves at peace with all the world, and 
never were we more respected or our wishes 
more regarded by foreign nations. 

DOMESTIC QUESTIONS. 

Pre-eminently successful in regard to our 
foreign relations, he has been equally for- 
tunate in dealing with domestic questions. 
The country has known that the public 
credit and the national currency were ab- 
solutely safe in the bands of his adminis- 
tration. In the enforcement of the laws he 
has shown not only courage but the wis- 
dom which understands that to permit laws 
to be violated or disregarded op*"ins the door 
to anarchy, while the just enforcement of 
the law is the soundest conservatism. He 
has held firmly to the fundamental doctrine 
that all mooj must obey the law, that there 
must be no distinction -between rich and 
poor, between strong and weak, but that 
justice and equal protection umler the law 
must be secured to every citizen without 
regard to race, creed or condition. 

His administration has been throughout 
vigorous and honorable, high minded and 
patriotic. We commend it without reserva- 
tion to the considerate judgment of the 
American people. 

PROHIBITIONIST. 

Adopted at Indianapolis, Ind., June 30. 

The prohibition party, in national conven- 
tion assembled at Indianapolis, June 10, 
1904, recognizing that the chief end of all 



government is the establishment of right- 
eousness and justice, and believing in the 
perpetuation of the high ideals of govern- 
ment of the people, by the people and for 
the people established by our fathers, make 
the following declaration of principles and 
purposes: 

1. The widely prevailing system of the 
licensed and legalized sale of alcoholic bev- 
erages is so ruinous to individual interests, 
so inimical to public welfare, so destructive 
to national wealth and so subversive to the 
rights of great masses of our citizenship 
that the destruction of the traffic is and for 
years has been the most important question 
in American politics. 

2. We denounce the lack of statesman- 
ship exhibited by the leaders of the demo- 
cratic and republican parties in their re- 
fusal to recognize the paramount impor- 
tance of this question and the cowardice 
with which the leaders of these parties 
have courted the favor of those whose sel- 
fish interests are advanced by the continua- 
tion and augmentation of the traffic until 
to-day the influence of the liquor traffic 
practically dominates national, state and 
local government throughout the nation. 

3. We declare the truth, demonstrated by 
the experience of half a century, that all 
methods of dealing with the liquor traffic 
which recognize its right to exist in any 
form, under any system of license or tax 
or regulation, have proved powerless to 
remove its evils and useless as checks upon 
its growth, while the insignificant public 
revenues which have accrued therefrom 
have seared the public conscience against a 
recognition of its iniquity. 

4. We call public attention to the fact, 
proved by the experience of more than 
fifty years, that to secure the enactment 
and enforcement of prohibitory legislation, 
in which alone lies hope of the protection 
of the people from the liquor traffic, it is 
necessary that the legislative, executive 
and judicial branches of the government 
should be in the hands of a political party 
in harmony with the prohibition principle 
and pledged to its embodiment in law and 
to the execution of those laws. 

5. We pledge the prohibition party, 
wherever given power by the suffrage of 
the people, to the enactment and enforce- 
ment of laws prohibiting and abolishing the 
manufacture, importation, transportation 
and sale of alcoholic beverages. 

6. We declare that there is not only no 
other issue of equal importance before the 
American people to-day, but that the so- 
called issues upon which the democratic 
and republican parties seek to divide the 
electorate of the country are in large part 
subterfuges under the cover of which they 
wrangle for the spoils of office. 

7. Recognizing that the intelligent voters 
of the country may properly ask our atti- 
tude upon other questions of public con- 
cern, we declare ourselves in favor of: 

Impartial enforcement of all law. 

The safeguarding of the people's rights 
by a rigid application of the principles of 
justice to all combinations and organiza- 
tions of capital and labor. 

A more intimate relation between the 
people and government by a wise adapta- 
tion of the principle of the initiative and 
referendum. 

The safeguarding to every citizen in ev- 
ery place under the government of the peo- 
ple of the United States of all the rights 
guaranteed by the laws and the constitu- 
tion.

POPULIST. 
Adopted at Springfield, 111., July 5. 

After reaffirming its adherence to the 
basic truths of the Omaha platform of 1892 
and of the subsequent platforms of 1896 and 
1900 the platform says: 

"The issuing of money is a function of 
government and should never be delegated 
to corporations or individuals. The consti- 
tution gives to congress alone power to is- 
sue money and regulate its value. 

"We therefore demand that all money 
shall be issued by the government in such 
quantities as shall maintain a stability in 
prices, every dollar to be a full legal ten- 
der, none of which shall be a debt redeem- 
able in other money. 

"We demand that postal savings banks 
be established by the government for the 
safe deposit of the savings of the people. 

"We believe in the right of labor to or- 
ganize for the benefit and protection of 
those who toil, and pledge the efforts of 
the people's party to preserve this right 
inviolate. Capital is organized and has no 
right to deny to labor the privilege which 
it claims for itself. 

"We favor the enactment of legislation 
looking to the improvement of conditions 
for wage-earners, the abolition of child 
labor, the suppression of sweatshops and 
convict labor in competition with free labor 
and the exclusion from American shores of 
foreign pauper labor. 

"We favor the shorter work day and de- 
clare that if eight hours constitutes a day's 
labor in government service eight hours 
should constitute a day's labor in factories, 
workshops and mines. 

"As a means of placing all public ques- 
tions directly under the control of the peo- 
ple we demand that legal provision b? 
made under which the people may exercise 
the initiative, referendum and proportional 
representation, and direct vote for all pub- 
lic officers with the right of recall. 

"To prevent unjust discrimination and 
monopoly the government should own and 
control the railroads and those public utili- 
ties whicn, in their nature, are monopo- 
lies; to perfect the postal service the gov- 
ernment should own and operate the gen- 
eral telegraph and telephone systems and 
provide a parcels post. 

"As to those trusts and monopolies which 
are not public utilities or natural monopo- 
lies, we demand that those special privi- 
leges which they now enjoy and which 
alone enable them to exist should be im- 
mediately withdrawn. 

"We demand that congress shall enact a 
general law uniformly regulating the power 
and duties of all incorporated companies 
doing interstate business." 

SOCIALIST LABOR. 
Adopted at New York city July 4. 
The socialist labor party of America, in 
convention assembled, reasserts the inalien- 



able right of man to life, liberty and the 
pursuit of happiness. 

We hold that the purpose of government 
is to secure to every citizen the enjoyment 
of this right, but taught by experience we 
hold furthermore that such right is illusory 
to the majority of the people, to wit, the 
working class, under the present system of 
economic inequality that is essentially de- 
structive of their life, their liberty and 
their happiness. 

We hold that the true- theory of politics 
is that the machinery of government must 
be controlled by the whole people, but 
again taught by experience we hold further- 
more that the true theory of economics is 
that the meams of production must like- 
wise be owned, operated and controlled by 
the people in common. Man cannot exer- 
cise his right of life, liberty and the pur- 
suit of happiness without the ownership of 
the land on and the tool with which to 
work. Deprived of these his life, his lib- 
erty and his fate fall into the hands of the 
class that owns those essentials for work 
and production. 

We hold that the existing contradiction 
between the theory of democratic govern- 
ment and the fact of despotic economic 
system the private ownership of the nat- 
ural and social opportunities divides the 
people into two classes, the capitalist class 
and the working class; throws society into 
the convulsions of the class struggle and 
perverts government to the exclusive bene- 
fit of the capitalist class. 

Thus labor is robbed of the wealth which 
it alone produces, is denied the means of 
self-employment and by compulsory idle- 
ness In wage slavery is even deprived of 
the necessaries of life. 

Against such a system the socialist labor 
party raises the banner of revolt and de- 
mands the unconditional surrender of the 
capitalist class. 

The time is fast coming when in the nat- 
ural course of social evolution this system 
through the destructive action of its fail- 
ures and crises on the one hand and the 
constructive tendencies of its trusts and 
other capitalist combinations on the other 
hand will have worked out its own down- 
fall. 

We therefore call upom the wage workers 
of America to organize under the banner of 
the socialist labor party into a class-con- 
scious body, aware of its rights and de- 
termined to conquer them. 

And we also call upon all other Intelli- 
gent citizens to place themselves squarely 
upon the ground of working-class interests 
and join us in this mighty and noble work 
of human emancipation, so that we may 
put summary end to the existing barbarous 
class conflict by placing the land and all 
the means of production, transportation 
and distribution into the hands of the peo- 
ple as a collective body and substituting 
the co-operative commonwealth for the 
present state of planless production, indus- 
trial war and social disorder a common- 
wealth in which every worker shall have 
the free exercise and full benefit of his 
faculties, multiplied by all the modern fac- 
tors of civilization. 

DEMOCRATIC. 
Adopted at St. Louis July 8. 
The democratic party of the United 
States, in national convention assembled, 
declares its devotion to the essential prin- 
ciples of the democratic faith which brings 
us together in party communion. 



NATIONAL PARTY PLATFORMS. 



131 



Under them local self-government and na- 
tional unity and prosperity were alike es- 
tablished. They underlaid our independence, 
the structure of our free republic and ev- 
ery democratic extension from Louisiana to 
California and Texas to Oregon which pre- 
served faithfully in all the states the tie 
between taxation and representation. 

They yet inspire the masses of our peo- 
ple, guarding jealously their rights and lib- 
erties and cherishing their fraternity, peace 
and orderly development. They remind us 
of our duties and responsibilities as citi- 
zens and impress upon us, particularly at 
this time, the necessity of reform amd the 
rescue of the administration of government 
from the headstrong, arbitrary and spas- 
modic methods which distract business by 
uncertainty and pervade the public mind 
with dread, distrust and perturbation. 

The application of these fundamental 
principles to the living issues of the day Is 
the first step toward the assured peace, 
safety and progress of our nation. Freedom 
of the press, of conscience and of speech 
equality before the law of all citizens; right 
of trial by jury freedom of the person de- 
fended by the writ of habeas corpus; lib- 
erty of personal contract untrammeled by 
sumptuary laws; supremacy of the civil 
over military authority; a well-disciplined 
militia: the separation of church and state; 
economy in expenditures, low taxes, that 
labor may be lightly burdened; prompt and 
sacred fulfillment of public and private 
obligations; fidelity to treaties; peace and 
friendship with all nations, entangling alli- 
ances with none; absolute acquiescence in 
the will of the majority, the vital princi- 
ple of republics these are doctrines which 
democracy has established, approved by the 
nation, and they should be constantly in- 
voked and enforced. 

CAPITAL AND LAIfOK. 

We favor the enactment and administra- 
tion of laws giving labor and capital Im- 
partially their just rights. Capital and la- 
bor ought not to be enemies. Each is neces- 
sary to the other. Each has its rights, but 
the rights of labor are certainly no less 
"vested," no less "sacred" and no less 
"inalienable" than the rights of capital. 

Constitutional guaranties are violated 
whenever any citizen is denied the right to 
labor, acquire and enjoy property or reside 
where Interest or Inclination may deter- 
mine. Any denial thereof by Individuals, 
organizations or governments should be 
summarily rebuked and punished. 

We deny the right of any executive to 
disregard or suspend any constitutional 
privilege or limitation. Obedience to the 
laws and respect for their requirements are 
alike the supreme duty of the citizen and 
the official. 

The military should be used only to sup- 
port and to maintain the law. We unquali- 
fiedly condemn its employment for the sum- 
mary banishment of citizens without trial 
or for the control of elections. 

We approve the measures which passed 
the United States senate in 1896. but which 
a republican congress has ever since refused 
to enact, relating to contempts in federal 
courts and providing for trial by jury In 
cases of indirect contempt. 

We favor liberal appropriations for the 
care and Improvement of the waterways of 
the country. When any waterway like the 
Mississippi river is of sufficient importance 
to demand special aid of the government, 



such aid should be extended with a definite 
plan of continuous work until permanent 
improvement is secured. 

We oppose the republican policy of starv- 
ing home development In order to feed the 
greed for conquest and the appetite for na- 
tional "pres-tige" and display of strength. 
asil 



Large reductions can easily be made in 
the annual expenditures of the government 
without impairing the efficiency of any 
branch of the public service, and we Shall 
insist upon the strictest economy and fru- 
gality compatible with vigorous and effi- 
cient civil, military and naval administra- 
tion as a right of the people too clear to be 
denied or withheld. 

We favor honesty in the public service 
the enforcement of honesty in the public 
service and to that end a thorough legis- 
lative investigation of those executive de- 
partments of the government already 
known to teem with corruption, as well as 
other departments suspected of harboring 
corruption, and the punishment of ascer- 
tained corruptionists without fear or favor 
or regard to persons. The persistent and 
deliberate refusal of both the senate and 
the house of representatives to permit such 
investigation to be made demonstrates that 
only by a change in the executive and in 
the legislative departments can complete 
exposure, punishment and correction be ob- 
tained. 

We condemn the action of the republican 
party in congress In refusing to prohibit an 
executive department from entering into 
contracts with convicted trusts or unlawful 
combinations in restraint of interstate 
trade. We believe that one of the best 
methods of procuring economy and honesty 
in the public service is to have public of- 
ficials, from the occupant of the white 
house down to the lowest of them, returned 
as nearly as may be to Jeffersonian sim- 
plicity of living. 

We favor the nomination and election of 
a president imbued with the principles of 
the constitution, who will set his face 
srernly against executive usurpation of leg- 
islative and judicial functions, whether that 
usurpation be veiled under the guise of ex- 
ecutive construction of existing laws or 
whether it take refuge in the tyrant's pleas 
of necessity or superior wisdom. 

IMPERIALISM. 

We favor the preservation, so far as we 
can, of an open door for the world's com- 
merce In the orient, without an unnecessary 
entanglement in oriental and European af- 
fairs and without arbitrary, unlimited, ir- 
responsible and absolute government any- 
where within our jurisdiction. We oppose, 
as fervently as did George Washington him- 
self, an indefinite, irresponsible, discretion- 
ary and vague absolutism and a policy of 
colonial exploitation, no matter where or 
by whom invoked or exercised; we believe 
with Thomas Jefferson and John Adams 
that no government has a right to make one 
set of laws for those "at nome" and an- 
other and a different set of laws, absolute 
in their character, for those "in the colo- 
nies." All men under the American flag are 
entitled to the protection of the institutions 
whose emblem the flag is; if they are in- 
herently unfit for those institutions, then 
they are inherently unfit to be members of 
the American body politic. Wherever there 
may exist a people incapable of being gov- 
erned under American laws, in consonance 
with the American constitution, that people 
ought not to be part . of the American do- 
main.

CHICAGO DAILY NEWS ALMANAC AND YEAR BOOK FOE 1905. 



We insist that' we ought to do for the 
Filipinos what we have done already for 
the Cubans, and it is our duty to make that 
promise now and, upon suitable guaranties 
of protection to citizens of our own and 
other countries resident there at the time 
of our withdrawal, set the Filipino people 
upon their feet, free and independent to 
work out their own destiny. 

The endeavor of the secretary of war by 
pledging the government's indorsement for 
"promoters" in, the Philippine islands to 
make the United States a partner in specu- 
lative legislation of the archipelago, which 
was only temporarily held up by the opposi- 
tion of the democratic senators in the last 
session, will if successful lead to entangle- 
ments from which it will be difficult to es- 
cape. 

THE TABIFF. 

The democratic party has been and will 
continue to be the consistent opponent of 
that class of tariff legislation by which cer- 
tain interests have been permitted, through 
congressional favor, to draw a heavy tribute 
from the American people. This monstrous 
perversion of those equal opportunities 
which our political institutions were estab- 
lished to secure has caused what may once 
have been infant industries to become the 
greatest combinations of capital that the 
world has ever known. These especial fa- 
vorites of the government have through 
trust methods been converted into monopo- 
lies, thus bringing to an end domestic com- 
petition, which was the only alleged check 
upon the extravagant profits made possible 
by the protective system. These industrial 
combinations, by the financial assistance 
they can give, now control the policy of the 
republican party. 

We denounce protection as a robbery of 
the many to enrich the few and we favor a 
tariff limited to the needs of the govern- 
ment, economically administered and so 
levied as not to discriminate against any 
industry, class or section, to the end that 
the burdens of taxation shall be distrib- 
uted as equally as possible. 

We favor a revision and a gradual reduc- 
tion of the tariff by the friends of the 
masses and for the common weal and not 
by the friends of its abuses, its extortions 
and its discriminations, keeping in view 
the ultimate ends of "equality of burdens 
and equality of opportunities" and the con- 
stitutional purpose of raising a revenue by 
taxation to wit, the support of the federal 
government in all its integrity and virility, 
but in simplicity. 

THE TRUSTS. 

We recognize that the gigantic trusts and 
combinations designed to enable capital to 
secure more than Its just share of the joint 
products of capital and labor and which 
have been fostered and promoted under re- 
publican rule are a menace to beneficial 
competition and an obstacle to permanent 
business prosperity. 

A private monopoly is indefensible and 
intolerable. Individual equality of opportu- 
nity and free competition are essential to 
a healthy and permanent commercial pros- 
perity, and any trust, combination or mo- 
nopoly tending to destroy these by control- 
ling production, restricting competition or 
fixing prices should be prohibited and pun- 
ished by law. We especially denounce re- 
bates and discriminations by transportation 
companies as the most potent agency in 
promoting aiUd strengthening these unlawful 
conspiracies against trade. 



We demand an enlargement of the powers 
of the interstate commerce commission to 
the end that the traveling public and ship- 
pers of the country may have prompt and 
adequate relief for the abuses to which they 
are subjected iu the matter of transporta- 
tion. We demand a strict enforcement of 
existing civil and criminal statutes against 
all such trusts, combinations and monopo- 
lies, and we demand the enactment of such 
further legislation ais may be necessary to 
effectually suppress them. 

Any trust or unlawful combination en- 
gaged in interstate commerce which is mo- 
nopolizing any branch of business or produc- 
tion should not be permitted to transact 
business outside of the state of its origin. 
Whenever it shall be established in any 
court of competent jurisdiction that such 
monopolization exists, such prohibition 
should be enforced through comprehensive 
laws to be enacted on the subject. 

We congratulate our western citizens 
upon the passing of the law known as the 
Newlands irrigation act for the irrigation 
and reclamation of the arid lands of the 
west, a measure framed by a democrat, 
passed in the senate by a nonpartisan vote 
and passed in the house against the opposi- 
tion of almost all the republican leaders by 
a vote the majority of which was demo- 
cratic. 

We* call attention to this great demo- 
cratic measure, broad and comprehensive as 
it is, working automatically throughout all 
time without further action of congress, un- 
til the reclamation of all the lands in the 
arid west capable of reclamation is accom- 
plished, reserving the lands reclaimed for 
homeseekers in small tracts and rigidly 
guarding against land monopoly as an evi- 
dence of the policy of domestic develop- 
ment contemplated by the democratic party 
should it be placed in power. 

PANAMA CANAL. 

The democracy when intrusted with pow- 
er will construct the Panama canal speed- 
ily, honestly and economically, thereby giv- 
ing to. our people what democrats have al- 
ways contended for a great interoceanic 
canal, furnishing shorter and cheaper lines 
of transportation and broader and less 
trammeled trade relations with the other 
peoples of the world. 

We pledge ourselves to insist upon the 
just and lawful protection of our citizens 
at home and abroad and to use all proper 
measures to secure for them, whether na- 
tive born or naturalized and without dis- 
tinction of race or creed, the equal protec- 
tion of laws and the enjoyment of all rights 
and privilege's open to them under the cove- 
nants of our treaties of friendship and com- 
merce, and if under existing treaties the 
right of travel and sojourn is denied to 
American citizens or recognition is withheld 
from American passports by any countries 
on the ground of race or creed, we favor 
the beginning of negotiations with the gov- 
ernments of such countries to secure by 
treaties the removal of these unjust dis- 
criminations. 

We demand that all over the world a duly 
authenticated passport issued by the gov- 
ernment- of the United States to an Amer- 
ican citizen shall be proof of the fact that 
he is an American citizen and shall entitle 
him to the treatment due him as such. 

We favor the election of United States 
senators by a direct vote of the people. 

We favor the admission, of the territories 
of Oklahoma and the Indian Territory. We 
also favor the Immediate admission of Ari-

We hold that the officials appointed to ad- 
minister the government of any territory, 
as well as with the district of Alaska, 
should be bona fide residents at the time of 
their appointment of the territory or dis- 
trict In which their duties are to be per- 
formed. 

We demand the extermination of polyg- 
amy within the jurisdiction of the United 
States and the complete separation of 
church and state in political affairs. 

We denounce the ship subsidy bill recent- 
ly passed by the United States senate as 
an Iniquitous appropriation of public funds 
for private purposes and a wasteful, illog- 
ical and useless attempt to overcome by 
subsidy the obstructions raised by repub- 
lican legislation to the growth and develop- 
ment of American commerce on the sea. 

We favor the upbuilding of a merchant 
marine without new or additional burdens 
upon the people and without bounties from 
the public treasury. 

We favor liberal trade arrangements with 
Canada and with peoples of other countries 
where they can be entered into with benefit 
to American agriculture, manufacture, min- 
ing or commerce. 

We favor the maintenance of the Monroe 
doctrine in its full integrity. 

THE ABMY. 

We favor the reduction of the army and 
of army expenditure to the point historical- 
ly demonstrated to be safe and sufficient. 

The democracy would secure to the sur- 
viving soldiers and sailors and their depen- 
dents generous pensions, not by an arbi- 
trary executive order, but by legislation 
which a grateful people stand ready to en- 
act. 

1 Our soldiers and sailors who defend with 
their lives the constitution and the laws 
have a sacred interest in their just admin- 
istration. They must therefore share with 
us the humiliation with which we have wit- 
nessed the exaltation of court favorites, 
without distinguished service, over the 
scarred heroes of many battles or aggran- 
dized by executive appropriations out of the 
treasuries of a prostrate people in violation 
of the act of congress which fixed the com- 
pensation and allowances of the military 
officers. 

The democratic party stands committed 
to the principles of civil-service reform, and 
we demand their honest, just and impartial 
enforcement. 

We denounce the republican party for its 
continuous and sinister encroachments upon 
the spirit and operation of civil-service 
rules, whereby it has arbitrarily dispensed 
with examinations for office in the interest 
of favorites and employed all manner of de- 
vices to overreach and set aside tho princi- 
ples upon which the civil service was es- 
tablished. 

The race question has brought countless 
woes to this country. The calm wisdom of 
the America people should see to it that 
it brings no more. 

To revive the dead and hateful race and 
sectional animosities in any part of our 
common country means confusion, distrac- 
tion of business and the reopening of 
wounds now happily healed. North, south, 
east and west have but recently stood to- 
gether in line of battle from the walls of 



Pekin to the hills of Santiago, and as shar- 
ers of a common glory and a common des- 
tiny we should share fraternally the com- 
mon burdens. 

We therefore deprecate and condemn the 
bourbon-like, selfish and narrow spirit of 
the recent republican convention at Chica- 
go, which sought to kindle anew the embers 
of racial and sectional strife, and we ap- 
peal from it to the sober common sense and 
patriotic spirit of the American people. 

The existing republican a<uninistration 
has been spasmodic, erratic, sensational, 
spectacular and arbitrary. It has made it- 
'self a satire upon the congress, the courts 
and upon the settled practices and usages 
of national and international law. 

It summoned the congress into hasty and 
futile extra session 1 and virtually adjourned 
it, leaving behind its flight from Washing- 
ton uncalled calendars and unaccomplished 
tasks. 

It made war, which is the sole power of 
congress, without its authority, thereby 
usurping one of its fundamental preroga- 
tives. It violated a plain statute of the 
United States as well as plain treaty obli- 
gations, international usages and constitu- 
tional law, and has done so under pretense 
of executing a great public policy which 
could have been more easily effected law- 
fully, constitutionally and with honor. 

It forced strained and unnatural construc- 
tions upon statutes, usurping judicial inter- 
pretation and substituting congressional en- 
actment in the decree. 

It withdrew from congress their custom- 
ary duties of investigation which have here- 
tofore made the representatives of the peo- 
ple and the states the terror of evildoers. 

It conducted a secretive investigation of 
its own and boasted of a few sample con- 
victs, while it threw a broad coverlet over 
the bureaus which had been their chosen 
field of operative abuses and kept in power 
the superior officers under whose adminis- 
tration the crimes had been committed. 

It ordered assault upon some monopolies, 
but paralyzed by its first victory it flung 
out the flaig of truce and cried out that it 
would not "run amuck" leaving its future 
purposes beclouded by its vacillations. 

Conducting the campaign upon this decla- 
ration of our principles and purposes, we 
invoke for our candidates the support not 
only of our great and time-honored organi- 
zation, but also the active assistance of all 
of our fellow-citizens who, disregarding past 
differences upon questions 1 no longer in is- 
sue, desire the perpetuation of our constitu- 
tional government as framed and estab- 
lished by the fathers of the republic. 

CONTINENTAL. 

Adopted at Chicago Aug. 31. 
The platform of the continental party de- 
clares in favor of reciprocity, the estab- 
lishment of postal banks, the building of 
national and international line's of railroad 
by the government, the repeal of the act 
authorizing national banks to issue notes of 
credit, the right of labor to organize, the 
eight-hour day for workingmen, the initia- 
tive and referendum, new primary election 
laws, the election of one presidential elec- 
tor by the voters of each congressional dis- 
trict, the independence of the Philippines 
under American protection and the revision 
of the federal constitution so that it may 
answer the demands of a century of civili- 
zation and progress.

By an official act of congress, followed by 
an invitation issued by the Hon. John Hay, 
secretary of state, there will be held dur- 
ing 1905, in the. state of Oregon, at Port- 
land, an international exhibition known as 
the "Lewis and Clark centennial and orient- 
al fair." This centennial will extend 
through a period of four and one-half 
months, beginning June 1, 1905, and ending 
Oct. 15, 1905. It will commemorate the ex- 
ploration of the great Pacific northwest ter- 
ritory to the shores of the Pacific in 1805. It 
is the first international exhibition held 
west of the Rocky mountains and Is de- 
signed fitly to mark an epoch of growth 
and development. 

The "Oregon country" (as that section ol 
America was then called) shortly after be- 
came a part of the United States and was 
subsequently divided into the present states 
of Oregon. Washington and Idaho, as well 
as extensive parts of Montana and Wyo- 
ming, adding over 300.000 square miles of. 



to the national domain, and its settlement 
and developn-ent have contributed much to 
national wealth and prosperity. The expe- 
dition which explored this "No Man's Land" 
was sent out under the leadership of Capts. 
Meriwether Lewis and William Clark by 
President Thomas Jefferson in 1803 and 



reached the mouth of the Columbia river in 
1805. Tine perilous journey, some 3,000 miles 
overland, was accomplished under most try- 
ing circumstances. Lewis and Clark were 
the first Americans who reached the Pa- 
cific coast overland, and it is the centenary 
of this momentous event that will be cele- 
brated at Portland In 1905, for the subse- 
quent acquisition of this vast region gave 
the United States its first footing on the 
Pacific's shores and opened the way to a 
great continental development. 

As this acquisition was one of the most 
important events in American history, be- 
cause of the Influent e exerted toward mak- 
ing the United States a great nation in ter- 
ritorial extent, the American people in gen- 
eral and those of the Pacific coast in par- 
ticular, supported by the government, have 
determined that this centennial shall be fit- 
tingly celebrated. When its gates are of- 
ficially opened it will represent an expendi- 
ture approximating $5,000,000 and will oc- 
cupy some 400 picturesque acres in the beau- 
tiful suburbs of Portland, overlooking 
Guild's lake and the Willamette river. 

The centennial will provide twelve com- 
modious exhibit palaces and furnish ample 
space, free of charge, for all displays, gov- 
ernmental and otherwise, that are offered. 
The main palaces will be: Foreign exhibits, 
liberal arts and industrial palace, horticul- 
tural palace, agricultural palace, electric- 
ity and machinery hall, mining palace, gov- 
ernment exhibits palace, territorial build- 
ing, forestry building, Irrigation building, 
fisheries building and live-stock building. 
Arrangements have been made with the 



at St. Louis in 1904 maiy be displayed at 
Portland in 1905 with little or no extra cost 
of transportation through the opportunity 
offered by the free return freight rates es- 
tablished on goods seat to the world's fair 
for exhibit purposes. 



DEATH OF PAUL KRUGER. 



Paul Kruger, former president of the 
Transvaal republic, died at Clarens, Swit- 
zerland, July 14, 1904, of senile pneumonia. 
He had been ill for some time, but was 
able to be about and receive visitors until 
within a few days of his death. Toward 
the close of the Anglo-Boer war Kruger 
went to Holland and made his home there 
and in France and Switzerland. He was 



born Oct. 10, 1825, in Cape Colony, became 
a member of the executive council of the 
South African Republic in 1872 and was 
made president for the first time in 1883. 
So great was the confidence reposed in him 
by his people that he was re-elected in 
1S88, 1893 and 1898, remaining in office until 
the republic ceased to exist.

- GOVERNMENT. 

The president of the United States was 
authorized by a bill passed by congress and 
approved April 26. 1904, to establish rules 
for the government of the canal zone. In 
accordance with this act he placed the 
control of the strip in the hands of the 
war department and in a communication 
dated May 9, 1904, and addressed to the 
secretary of war, he defined in a general 
way the regulations to be enforced. The 
inhabitants of the canal zone are to be 
secure in their persons, property and re- 
ligion and are to be disturbed as little as 
possible in their customs and vocations. 
Municipal laws are to be administered by 
the ordinary tribunals substantially as they 
were before the change. Police magistrates 
and justices of the peace are to be con- 
tinued in office if they are suitable per- 
sons. The governor of the zone shall have 
the power to appoint temporarily a judge 
with authority equivalent to that usually 
exercised in Latin countries by a judge of 
a court of first instance. Additional or 
appellate judges may be appointed if re- 
quired. 

The laws of the land with which the 
inhabitants are familiar, and which were 
in force on Feb. 26, 1904, will continue in 
force in the canal zone until altered or 
annulled by the canal commission, but the 
personal rights guaranteed by the consti- 
tution of the United States shall also be 
respected. The commission is given power 
to exclude from the canal territory over 
which the United States has control all 
idiots, insane, epileptics, paupers, criminals, 
professional beggars, persons afflicted with 
contagious diseases, and anarchists, pro- 
vided they have come into the zone subse- 
quent to Feb. 26, 1904. The commission 
may legislate on all rightful subjects of 
legislation not inconsistent with the laws 
and treaties of the United States, so far 
;is they apply to the canal zone. This in-

eludes the enactment of the sanitary or- 
dinances for the cities of Colon and Pana- 
ma and the raising and appropriating of 
revenues. Four or more members of the 
commission shall constitute a legislative 
quorum and the quarterly meetings shall 
be held either in Panama or at a branch 
office in Washington. All laws and regu- 
lations passed by the commission are sub- 
ject to the approval of the secretary of 
war. 

Maj.-Gen. George W. Davis, appointed 
governor of the Isthmian canal zone, will, 
in the name of the president of the United 
States, see that the laws are faithfully 
executed, and will maintain possession of 
the canal property, except the Panama 
railroad. He is vested with the power to 
grant reprieves and pardons for offenses 
against the laws as existing or as laid 
down by the commission. Other duties may 
be assigned to him by the commission. 

For the preservation of order and the 
protection of government property an ade- 
quate police force shall be maintained. In 
case of necessity the governor may call 
upon any military or naval force of the 
United States for assistance. Every pos- 
sible effort is to be made to protect offi- 
cers and workmen from the tropical and 
other diseases which in the past have been 
prevalent and destructive in Panama. 

The canal commission Is to prepare for 
congress an annual report to be placed in 
the hands of -the secretary of war on or 
before Dec. 1, giving a full account of all 
operations and of all moneys received and 
expended. 

Rear-Admiral John G. Walker and Ool. 
Frank J. Hecker are appointed members of 
the joint commission provided for by ar- 
ticles 6 and 15 of the canal convention. 
The necessary expenses in carrying on the 
government of the canal zone will be de- 
frayed from the local revenues so far as 
they may be sufficient; the remainder will 
be met from the appropriations by con- 
gress. 

The general policy of the Panama rail- 
road will be controlled by the United 
States and the canal commissioners are to 
be elected to its board of directors. The 
road is to be used as an adjunct of the 
canal and to fulfill its purpose as a route 
of commercial movement across the Isth- 
mus. 

No salary or per diem allowance in ad- 
dition to the stated salary and per diem 
allowance of the members of the Isthmian 
canal commission will be allowed to any 
member of the commission by reason of 
his services in connection with the civil 
government of the zone, or his membership 
of any board concerned In the construction 
of the canal, or by reason of his being a 
director of the railroad. 

Franchises for gambling or for conduct- 
ing lotteries are to be annulled. 



PLAN AND COST OF CANAL. 

The canal is to extend from Colon on 
the Atlantic side to the city of Panama 
on the Pacific side, a distance of forty-six 
miles. It is to be deep and wide enough 
to accommodate the largest ocean vessels. 
It was the original idea to have a sea- 
level canal, but this was abandoned in 
favor of a lock canal. The plans of the 
French company purchased by the United 
States are subject to change by the com- 
missioners, but it is thought that they will 
be followed in the main. According to 
these the bottom of the summit level of 
the canal will have an altitude of 68.08 
feet above mean sea level. This level, 
which is In the Culebra mountain, is to 
be 318.35 feet long and 118.11 feet wide at 
the bottom. The next level, from Obispo 
to Bohio, with a bottom width of 164 feet, 
is 13.37 miles long. At Bohio a group of 
double locks empties Into the Atlantic 
level, which has a width of 98.4 to 111.5 
feet on the bottom, and a length of 14.84 
miles. 

On the Pacific side the summit level ter- 
minates at Paraiso with one double lock. 
The adjacent level from Paraiso to Pedro 
Miguel Is 7,963 feet long and terminates 
with one double lock. The Pacific level 
extends 4.69 miles to La Boca, beyond 
which a channel 3.36 miles long Is exca- 
vated to deep water. All the locks are to 
be double, the working length for both 
being 738.22 feet. The width of one of the 
twin locks Is to be 82.02 feet, and the 
width of the other Is 59.05 feet, with an 
intermediate gate. 

The slopes of the canal, especially in the 
deep central trench, are to be protected 
by stone revetments. Of the forty-six miles 
of the canal 26.75 are straight and fifteen 
have radii equal to or not exceeding 9.850 
feet. The curvatures are gentle, the small- 
est radius being 8,200 feet. 

The Chagres river Is to be controlled by 
two great dams which will capture and 
control the floods, supplying the summit 
level with water during the dry season, 
feeding the canal and furnishing hydraulic 
power for operating the locks and lighting 
the entire length of the waterway by night. 
One of the dams will be at Bohio on the 
canal and the other at Alhajuela, on the 
upper Chagres, nine and one-third miles 
from the canal. The Bohio dam will form 
a lake covering an area of 21.5 square 
miles with a normal level of 55.75 feet 
above mean tide. The other dam will form 
a reservoir covering ten square miles. It 
will be about 164 feet above the canal. 

It will take a vessel about twelve hours 
to traverse the canal from end to end. 

The total cost of constructing the Pana- 
ma canal, not including the payments for 
work done and for the concession, has been 
estimated at about $145.000.000. The annual 
cost of maintenance will be $2,000,000.

Suit brought by the government March 11,

Decision of United States Circuit court 

against company April 9, 1903. 
Decision affirmed by United States Supreme 

court March 14, 1904. 

The decision of the United States Circuit 
court for the district of Minnesota in the 
case of the government against the North- 
ern Securities company was affirmed by 
the United States Supreme court March 14, 
1904. The opinion was read by Justice Har- 
lan, Justices Brown, Brewer, McKenna and 
Day concurring. Chief Justice Fuller and 
Justices White, Peckbam and Holmes dis- 
sented. In effect the decision of the lower 
court was that the "merger" of the Great 
Northern and Northern Pacific railroad 
properties through the formation of a. com- 
pany holding the securities of both com- 
panies was in violation of the Sherman 



antitrust law of 1890 because the combina- 
tion of the roads would result in the re- 
straint of interstate commerce. This con- 
tention was fully upheld in the opinion 
read by Justice Harlan. He declared that 
if such a combination were not destroyed 
all the advantages that would naturally 
come to the public under the operation of 
the general laws of competition, as be- 
tween the Great Northern and Northern 
Pacific Railroad companies, would be lost 
and the entire commerce of the immense 
territory in the northern part of the United 
States between the great lakes and the 
Pacific at Puget sound would be at the 
mercy of a single holding corporation, or- 
ganized in a state distinct from the people 
of that territory. If the antitrust act were 
held not to include such cases as this the 
plain intention of the legislative branch of 
the government would be defeated.

lower court in this case will be found in

for 1904, page 98.)

RADIUM AND RADIO-ACTIVITY. 



145 



AND RADIO-ACTIVITY. 



X-rays discovered by Prof. Roentgen, 1895. 

Uranium rays discovered by Henri Bec- 
querel, 1896. 

Radium discovered by Mme. and Prof. 
Curie, 1898. 

Alpha, beta and gamma rays discovered 
by Prof. Rutherford, 1899. 

Uranium X discovered by Sir William 
Crookes, 1900. 

Thorium X and radium emanation discov- 
ered by Prof. Rutherford, 1902-1903. 

Production of helium by emanation of 
radium discovered by Prof. Ramsay and 
Mr. Soddy. 1903. 

It was the discovery in 1896 by Henri Bec- 
querel, a noted French physicist, that ura- 
nium and uranium compounds emitted rays 
which, like the X-rajs found by Prof. 
Roentgen, affected photographic plates anil 
rendered a gas through which they passed a 
conductor of electricity, that most immedi- 
ately led to the discovery of radium. Mme. 
Curie, In experimenting with pitchblende, 
the chief component of which Is uranium 
oxide, noticed that the crude ore would af- 
fect a photographic plate or discharge an 
electrified body much more quickly than 
the same weight of pure uranium salt. 
She therefore concluded that the ore must 
contain some element having a greater 
radio-activity than the uranium oxide. With 
the assistance of her husband, Prof. Curie, 
she proceeded to separate the various sub- 
stances contained in pitchblende, such as 
uranium, barium, lead, copper and zinc, by 
the methods ordinarily used in quantita- 
tive chemical analysis. After each separa- 
tion she determined which of the two parts 
contained the greater amount of radio- 
activity, following the same process until 
finally only the pure radium salt remained. 
Thus an entirely new element, of which not 
more than two or three grains were ob- 
tained from several tons of pitchblende, 
was brought to light. 

Cathode rays were known and studied 
long before Prof. Roentgen of Germany dis- 
covered X-rays in 1895, but It was not un- 
til three years after that date that their 
nature was determined. It was then found 
that they consisted of streams of negative- 
ly charged particles shot off with a veloc- 
ity approximating 20,000 miles per second 
from the negative electrode, or cathode, of 
an exhausted bulb in which an electrical 
discharge was passing. The particles are 
bodies whose mass is only one-thousandth 
of the mass of the atom of hydrogen, the 
smallest atom known. Roentgen's X-rays 
differ from cathode rays In that they are 
not deflected by a magnet or by bodies 
charged with static electricity and do not 
impart negative charges to objects upon 
which they fall. They originate where the 
cathode rays strike the walls of the tube 
or any object placed within the tube. Of 
what X-rays consist little or nothing is 
known. Investigators are inclined to think 
they are ethereal and similar to light 
waves. Radium rays and rays emitted by 
uranium, thorium, polonium and actinium, 
all of which have been called radio-active 
substances by the Curies, are Identical In 
some respects with the cathode rays. They 
consist of particles of the same size as 
those of the cathode rays, but their veloc- 
ity is much greater, approximating that of 
light, which Is 186,000 miles a second, and 
they are spontaneously emitted. 

Rndium rays form a heterogeneous com- 



pound which has been divided into three 
groups named by Rutherford alpha, beta 
and gamma rays. These are easily distin- 
guished through their properties in a strong 
magnetic field. The alpha rays, which are 
also emitted by uranium and thorium, are 
different from the cathode rays in that they 
are less easily deflected and have a smaller 
penetrating power. They consist of parti- 
cles of matter carrying positive instead ot 
negative charges of electricity and having 
a weight about 2,000 times greater thar 
that of the cathode particles. Their mass 
is equal to that of helium and their veloc- 
ity is the same as that of the cathode par- 
ticles, or about 20,000 miles a second. 
The beta rays have all the Characteristics 
of cathode rays. The gamma rays have a 
much greater penetrating power than the 
others, but their energy Is insignificant and 
they are supposed to be ethereal In their 
nature, like the Roentgen rays. The fact 
that the alpha rays have less penetrating 
power but more energy than the other 
rays is accounted for by their greater mass 
and weight. 

Uranium X and thorium X are substances 
formed by precipitating uranium and tho- 
rium nitrates by ammonium carbonates and 
adding enough of the latter to redissolve 
the nitrates. The undissolved precipitates 
contain much of the radio-activity of the 
original nitrates, but in the course ot 
a few days lose it, while the nitrates re- 
gain It. The activity of thorium X, how- 
ever, disappears four times as fast as that 
of uranium X. Radium when subjected to 
analysis was found to be producing a radio- 
active substance similar to uranium X and 
thorium X, in that it loses its activity in 
course of time, but it has distinct physical 
properties of its own. By heating radium, 
or dissolving it in water, a gas, called 
radium emanation by Prof. Rutherford. Is 
produced having three-fourths of the radi- 
ating power or radium, the latter retain- 
ing the other fourth. One-half of the activ- 
ity disappears in four days, the radium 
from which it has been separated regain- 
Ing the same amount in the same time. 

It has also been found that the gas or 
emanation from radium is transformed Into 
still another radio-active substance, which 
In turn loses Its activity, but at a different 
rate from that of the emanation Itself, and 
that it emits both 'alpha and beta rays, 
while the emanation emits alpha rays 
alone. From this it is concluded that the 
new substance Is the result of the disin- 
tegration of the atom of the emanation, 
just as the emanation Is the result of the 
disintegration of the atom of radium. In 
1903 Messrs. Ramsay and Soddy by spec- 
troscoplc examination discovered In the 
emanation from fifty milligrams of radium 
bromide the characteristic lines of helium, 
thus apparently proving that helium Is be- 
ing constantly formed by the disintegration 
of radium. 

In a lecture at the Sorbonne, Paris, In 
the early part of 1904, Prof. Curie gave 
many interesting details as to radium and 
other radio-active substances. He said, in 
part: "Polonium, radium and actinium send 
out rays having an intensity a million times 
greater than that of the rays emitted by 
uranium and thorium. No screen is abso- 
lutely impenetrable by radium rays. In a 
great number of bodies they produce phos- 
phorescence. Phosphorescent bodies when

exposed continuously to radium rays become 
less active and less luminous. Radium rays 
are self-luminous. It is to be assumed that 
they become phosphorescent through the 
Becquerel rays which they emit. Radium 
chloride and radium bromide are salts 
which intensify the luminosity to such an 
extent that it becomes visible in broad 
daylight. The light emitted by the radium 
salts recalls that of the glow-worm. When 
the light diminishes, which it does In time, 
but without entirely disappearing, the salts 
first become colorless, then gray and then 
yellow or violet. 

"Radium salts possess the remarkable 
property, discovered by Laborde and my- 
self, of constantly developing heat. One 
gram of radium develops eighty calories, 
or sufficient to raise the temperature of 
eighty grams of water one degree or to 
melt one gram of Ice. 

"Radium rays produce several distinct 
physiological effects. Even if the radium 
is in a dark pasteboard box or box of metal 
it affects the eyes and produces a sensa- 
tion of light when the box is placed before 
the closed eyes or on the temples. The 
source of this light is In the eyes them- 
selves, as their media begin to phosphoresce 
under the influence of the radium rays. 

"Radium rays also affect the skin. If a 
tube containing radium is placed against 
the skin no particular sensation is felt at 
the time, but in from fifteen to twenty 
days the skin reddens where the tube was 
applied and a scab forms. Longer applica- 
tion of the radium causes a wound that 
requires months to heal. The effect of the 
radium rays on the cuticle is analogous to 
that of the Roentgen rays. An effort is 
being made to use them in treating lupus 
and cancer. Radium rays also affect the 
nerve centers, causing lameness and even 
death. They appear to be especially in- 
tense in their effect on living tissues. 

"The late Demarcay first turned the spec- 
trum analysis upon the spectrum of radium. 
The spectral reaction of radium is as sensi- 
tive as that of barium. In a barium salt 
containing only one ten-thousandth part of 
radium the latter can be detected in the 
spectroscope. But the radio-activity gives 
a reaction that is ten thousand times more 
sensitive. By means of an ordinary, well- 
isolated electrometer one can detect a one- 
hnndred-millionth part of radium in inac- 
tive substances. Though radium Is very 
close to barium, not even a trace of It is 
found in the common barium ores. As an 
accompaniment of barium it is found only 
in uranium ores a circumstance which Is 
probably of great hypothetical significance. 

"Radium gives us the example of a body 
which constantly develops energy, and that 
in considerable quantity. Herein there ap- 
pears to be a violation of the basic princi- 
ple of energy, in explanation of Which sev- 
eral theories have been advanced. We shall 
mention two as being especially worthy of 
mention. According to one theory radium 
is an element in process of development. 
This development must be considered to be 
extremely slow so much so that even after 
the lapse of years no change is apparent. 
The energy developed by radium in the 
course of a year would, according to this, 
effect but an insignificant change in its 
substance. According to the second hypoth- 
esis, there exist in space rays still un- 
known and not distinguishable by our 
senses. Radium has the property of absorb- 
ing the energy of these hypothetical rays 
and transforming them into radio-active en- 



ergy. Moreover, these two theories are not 
incompatible. Finally, a new and Impor- 
tant fact has been discovered b/ Messrs. 
Ramsay and Soddy. These sciettists have 
found that while the emanations of radium 
disappear they turn into heliuB gas. Thus 
it appears that for the first time we are 
face to face with the formation of an ele- 
ment. Possibly radium is an unstable 
chemical element and helium one of the 
products of its disintegration." 

Though no one has as yet beei able to de- 
tect loss of weight and activity in radium. 
Prof. R. A. Millikan of the University of 
Chicago maintains that it does lose both. 
If it did not the principle of the conserva- 
tion of energy would be violated. He has 
calculated that all the radium now in ex- 
istence will cease to be active within a pe- 
riod of a million years at the most. The 
life of uranium and thorium will be from 
one to two million years longer, since they 
radiate only about a millionth as actively. 

The amount of radium in existence is a 
matter of pure conjecture. At present it is 
obtained chiefly from pitchblende, or mineral 
uraninite, an ore found only in limited 
quantities. One ton of this contains only 
one decigram of radium. Owing to the dif- 
ficulty with which it is obtained and its 
great scarcity radium is very expensive 
and but little is to be had at any price. 
So far it has been used principally for ex- 
perimental purposes by scientists, no prac- 
tical use of great value having been found 
for it. 

In connection with the discovery of ra- 
dium and radio-activity Prof. Millikan 
makes some interesting suggestions. In an 
article contributed to the Popular Science 
Monthly for April, 1904, he says: "The 
discoveries which we have attempted to de- 
scribe have seemed to lead to the startling 
conclusion that in the case of certain ele- 
ments at least the dreams of the ancient 
alchemists are true, for the radio-active 
elements all appear to be slowly but spon- 
taneously transmuting themselves into 
other elements. The present indications 
seem to be that this transmutation which 
is going on in nature is a change from the 
heavier atoms to the lighter ones. Whether 
any other heavy atoms besides those of 
uranium, thorium and radium are thus 
slowly disintegrating we cannot say, but 

SH^aMy actinium must be added to the 
st. If any other known heavy elements, 
like gold, lead, barium, bismuth, mercury, 
are undergoing such a change; it is too slow- 
to be detected even by the delicate test of 
radio-activity. But it is interesting to note 
that the only changes of this kind which 
have thus far been discovered to be going 
on among the atoms are in some respects 
similar to the changes which are going on 
in the organic world among the molecules. 
By the ordinary process of decay all organic 
compounds, which represent very complex 
molecular structures, are continually disin- 
tegrating into simpler ones, and in doing 
so are setting free the energy which was 
put into them when the processes of life 
built them up into complex forms. Simi- 
larly, the studies of the last eight years 
upon radiation seem to indicate that in the 
atomic world also at least some of the 
heaviest and most complex atomic struc- 
tures are tending to disintegrate into sim- 
pler atoms. The analogy suggests the pro- 
foundly interesting question as to whether 
or not there is any natural process which 
does among the atoms what the life proc- 
ess does among the molecules: that is.

which takes the simpler forms and builds 
them up again into more complex ones. It 
would be rash to attempt to give any posi- 
tive answer to such a query, yet the fact 
that radium now exists on earth, taken in 
connection with the fact that the life of 
radium Is short in comparison with the ages 
in which the earth has been in existence, 
certainly seems to point to an affirmative 
answer. The only other alternative Is to 
assume that radium Is itself a product of 
the disintegration of some heavier element 
which has been undergoing this process of 
decay since the world began. 

"The experiments of the last eight years 
have then marked a remarkable advance in 
science In that they have proved the exist- 
ence of an immense store of subatomic 



energy. It seems highly Improbable, how- 
ever, that this energy can ever be utilized 
on the earth to serve man's economic 
needs, for thus far we know of but three 
substances which are disengaging it, and 
these are changing so slowly that the rate 
of evolution of energy is almost Infinitesi- 
mal. Radium may possibly prove of prac- 
tical value in the cure of disease, although 
It Is too early yet to assert even this with 
certainty. But even if no practical appli- 
cation of these discoveries should be found, 
radio-activity will nevertheless have served 
one of the most useful of all ends namely, 
that of enlarging man's knowledge of na- 
ture and of deepening his Insight Into the 
constitution of matter."

ISLAND OF PORTO KICO. 



Porto Rico, according to the decision of 
the United States Supreme court in the in- 
sular cases May 27, 1901, is a territory 
appurtenant and belonging to the United 
States, but not a part of toe United States 
within the revenue clause of the constitu- 
tion. The island was ceded to the United 
States by Spain Dec. 10, 1898, and was under 
military rule until the Foraker law went 
into effect >May 1, 1900. (For the provisions of 
that law see The Daily News Almanac for 
1901.) In accordance with the third section 
of that act, the legislative assembly of 
Porto Rico having put into operation a sys- 
tem of local taxation to meet the necessi- 
ties of government, President McKinley on 
the 25th of July, 1902, the anniversary of the 
landing of American troops on the island in 
1898 proclaimed free trade between the 
United States and Porto Rico. 

GOVERNMENT Civil government, under th'e 

R revisions of the Foraker act, was estab- 
ished May 1, 1900. The upper house con- 
sists of eleven members, six of whom are 
"cabinet" officers appointed by the presi- 
dent; the lower bouse is made up of thirty - 
flve delegates elected by the people every 
two years. The governor, who is appointed 
by the president, has practically the same 
duties as the governor of any other terri- 
tory of the United States. The present offi- 



cers are: Governor, Beckham Winthrop; 
secretary, Charles Hartzell; attorney-gen- 
eral, Willis Sweet; commissioner of educa- 
tion, Samuel M. Lindsay. 

AREA AND POPULATION The area of Porto 
Rico is about 3,600 square miles, and the 
population, as shown by the military census 
of 1899, is 953,243. Of these 941,751 are na- 
tives. The whites number 589,426 and the 
colored 363,817. The colored are subdivided 
into 304,352 mestizos, 59,390 negroes and 75 
Chinese. By departments the population is: 
Aguadilla, 99,645; Arecibo, 162,308; Bayamon, 
147,681; Guayama, 111,986; Humacao, 100,866; 
Mayaguez, 127,566; Ponce, 203,191. The cities 
having more than 5,000 inhabitants are: San 
Juan, 32,048; Ponce, 27,952; Mayaguez, 15,187; 
Arecibo, 8,008; Aguadilla, 6,425; Yauco, 6,108; 
Caguas, 5,450; Guayama, 5,334. 

COMMERCE For the year ended June 30, 
1904, the total domestic exports from Porto 
Rico to foreign countries and the United 
States amounted to $16,013,390, while the 
imports from the United States amounted 
to $10,727,015. Of the exports the United 
States took merchandise valued at $11.576,- 
912; Spain, $626,310; Cuba, $770,478; France, 
$1,576,546; Germany, $348,918; Austria-Hun- 
gary, $469.778. 

The leading articles of export are coffee, 
oranges, brown sugar and tobacco. 



THE PHILIPPINE ISLANDS. 



The Philippine islands were ceded to the 
United States by Spain Dec. 10, 1898. Ma].- 
Gen. Merritt was the first military gov- 
ernor. He was succeeded in August, 1899, by 
Maj.-Gen. E. S. Otis, who in turn was fol- 
lowed May, 1900, by Maj.-Gen. Arthur Mac- 
Arthur. The last named remained in office 
until July 4, 1901, when the military author- 
ity was transferred to Gen. A. R. Chaffee. 
By order of the president Gen. Chaffee was 
relieved of his duties as military governor 
July 4, 1902, and the office terminated. The 
Philippine commission was at the same 
time made the superior authority. Sept. 2 
the islands were divided into three military 
departments, to be known as the department 
of Luzon, the department of Visayas and 
the department of Mindanao. 

OFFICIALS AND SALARIES The government 
of the Philippine islands is in the hands of 
a commission appointed by the president of 
the United States, consisting in December, 
1904, of Luke E. Wright of Tennessee, Prof. 
Dean C. Worcester of Michigan, Henry C. 
Ide of Vermont, James F. Smith of Cali- 
fornia, W. Cameron Forbes of Massachu- 
setts and Trinidad Pardo de Tavera. Benito 
Legarda and Jose R. Luzuriaga of the Phil- 
ippines. The officers up to the close of 1903 
were: 

Governor Luke E. Wright. 

Vice-Governor and Secretary of Commerce 
and Police Henry C. Ide. 

Secretary Interior Department Dean C. 
Worcester. 

Secretary of Commerce and Police W.

The governor receives $20,000 a year ($15,- 
000 as governor) and the other commis- 
sioners receive $15,500 each ($10,500 being for 
their services as heads of departments). 
The salaries of other leading officials are: 
Secretary to the commission, $3,500; secre- 
tary to the governor, $7,500; auditor, $6,000; 
collector of customs, $6,000; attorney-gen-

cation, $6,000; director-general of posts, 
$6,000; treasurer, $6,000. 

AREA AND POPULATION The total land 
and water area of the Philippine archipel- 
ago is 832. 968 square miles and the population 
7.635,436. (Details as to the population will 
be found under "Population of the Philip- 
pines" on the next page.) 

PRODUCTS AND CLIMATE The chief prod- 
ucts are hemp, sugar, coffee, tobacco leaf, 
copra, cigars and indigo. Between 600,000 
and 700,000 bales of hemp are exported an- 
nually. 

The climate of the Philippine islands is 
considered excellent, for the tropics. The 
mean temperature in Manila ranges from 
77 in January to 83 in May. June, July, 
August and September comprise the rainy 
months; March, April and May the hot and 
dry and October, November, December. 
January and February the temperate and 
dry. 

TRADE WITH THE UNITED STATES The 
shipments of merchandise from the United 
St:-tes to the Philippines in the fiscal year 
ended June 30. 1904. amounted in value to

ANGLO-FRENCH TREATY. 



By means of a treaty signed April 8, 
1904, Great Britain and France adjusted a 
number of disputes of long duration. Its 
most important effect Is to give France a 
free hand in Morocco and to permit the 
continued occupation of Egypt by England. 

The convention comprised three separate 
instruments, the first dealing with Egypt 
and Morocco, the second with Newfound- 
land and west Africa and the third with 
Siam, the New Hebrides and Madagascar. 
Great Britain recognizes the right of 
France to guard the tranquillity of Mo- 
rocco, while France will not impede the 
action of Great Britain in Egypt. Great 
Britain adheres to the convention of 1888 
for the neutrality of the Suez canal. The 
freedom of trade in Egypt and Morocco is 
guaranteed for thirty years. In order to 
assure the freedom of the straits of Gib- 
raltar it is agreed that no fortification can 
be erected on the Moroccan coast between 
Melilla and the south mouth of the Sebu 
river. 

In Newfoundland France foregoes exclu- 
sive lishintr rights on the French shore, 



though retaining her right to fish. The 
bait bill of 1886 is modified so as to give 
Newfoundland the right to sell bait to the 
French fishermen. 

France obtains three concessions regard- 
ing territory in west Africa. Under the 
terms of the first there is to be a terri- 
torial readjustment on the Zambesi giving 
France access to the portion of the river 
navigable to ocean-going ships; under the 
second France secures six Los islands, and 
under the third there is to be a readjust- 
ment of the frontier line between the River 
Niger and Lake Chad, giving France a 
route through a fertile country. 

In the case of Siam the two countries 
confirm the declaration of 1896, determining 
its precise meaning with "regard to pre- 
existing differences. With regard to the 
New Hebrides, the British and French gov- 
ernments agree to appoint a commission 
which will decide the land disputes be- 
tween the inhabitants. Concerning Mada- 
gascar, Great Britain withdraws the pro- 
tests made at various periods against the 
French economic regime there.

Commanderies have been established in 
twenty-two states and territories. Total 
membership about 1,600. 

The order is a military organization with 
patriotic objects, having for its scope the 
period of American history since national 
Independence. It stands for the needed and 
honorable principle of national defense 
against foreign aggression. The principal 
feature of the order is the perpetuating of 
the names, as well as the services, of com- 
missioned officers who served in either the 
war of the revolution, the war with Tripoli, 
the war of 1812, the Mexican war or the war 
with Spain. Veteran companionship is con- 
ferred upon such officers and hereditary 
companionship upon their direct lineal de- 
scendants in the male line.

LICENSE SYSTEMS 01 

In the following tables giving the license 
rates and collections in the principal cities 
of the United States the figures are the 
latest available. In most cases they are 
for the calendar year 1903 and in others for 
fiscal years ending in 1904. The methods 
of bookkeeping in vogue make it impossi- 
ble in very many instances to show the an- 
nual revenue from each particular license, 
the receipts being entered under general 
heads and not tabulated according to the 
schedule of licenses charged. This will ac- 
count for a large proportion of the blanks 
in the "collected' 1 columns. The figures 
have been obtained from the mayors and 
other city officials, or from trustworthy 
correspondents.

NOTED TRIALS IN 1904. 



BOTKIN. Mrs. Cordelia Botkin was 
charged with having poisoned Mrs. John P. 
Dunning and Mrs. Deane, both of Dover, 
Del., daughters of Former Congressman 
Pennlngton, Aug. 12, 1898, by sending them 
a box of drugged candy. The cause al- 
leged was her love for Mr. Dunning. She 
was arrested in San Francisco, Cal., and 
her trial took place there in September, 
1898, when she was sentenced to life im- 
prisonment. On appeal she was granted 
a new trial, which began in March and 
ended April 6. 1904. She was again found 
guilty and sentenced to imprisonment for 
life. 

BURTON. United States Senator Joseph 
Ralph Burton of Kansas was charged with 
having accepted $2,500 from the Rialto 
Grain and Securities company to use his 
influence with the postofflce department to 
prevent the issuance of a fraud order 
against the company. The trial began 
March 22. 1904, before Judge Adams, in the

ROOSEVELT'S ANTI-THIRD-TERM 


On the evening of Nov. 8, 1904, after the 
result of the presidential election had been 
made known, Mr. Roosevelt issued the fol- 
lowing statement from the white house: 
"I am deeply sensible of the honor done 
me by the American people in thus ex- 
pressing their confidence in what I have 
done and have tried to do. I appreciate 
to the full the solemn responsibility this 
confidence imposes upon me, aud I shall 


do all that in my power lies not to for- 

"On the 4th of March next I shall have 
served three and a half years, and this 
three and a half years constitutes my first 
term. 
"The wise custom which limits the pres- 
ident to two terms regards the substance 
and not the form, and under no circum- 
stances will I be a candidate for or ac- 
cept another nomination." 


JTJDGE PARKER'S "GOLD TELEGRAM." 


Following is the text of the telegram 
sent by Judge Alton B. Parker announcing 
to the democratic national convention his 
position on the monetary question: 
"Hon. W. F. Sheehan, Hotel Jefferson, 
St. Louis: I regard the gold standard as 
firmly and irrevocably established and shall 
act accordingly if the action of the coi - 


vention of to-day shall be ratified by the 
people. 
"As the platform is silent on the sub- 
ject my views should be made known to 
the convention and if it is proved to he 
unsatisfactory to the majority I request 
you to decline rhe nomination for me at 
once, so that another mav be nominated 
before adjournment. A. B. PARKKR."
