MORNING TRIBUNE, MONDAY, JULY 13, 1896. 2 years ago. During thia time Mr. Sewall was also president of the Portland, Mount ilralliuicw TAIL OF THE TICKET, Democrats Finally Sacceed in Noml nating a Vice President. ent time, and every effort to make our dollars, or any one of them, worth less than 100 cents each, only serves to increase that distrust.

"What we want is a sound policy, financial and industrial, which will give courage and confidence to all, for when that is done, the money now unemployed because of fear for the future and lack of confidence in investment, will quickly appear in the channels of trade. Cries of "jou are right," major and applause. "Gentlemen, the employment of our idle money, the idle money that we already have, in gainful pursuits will put every idle man in the country at work and when there is work there is wages, and when there is work and wages there are consumers who constitute the best market for the products of our soil. "Having destroyed business and confidence by a free trade 'policy, it is now proposed to make things Btill worse by entering upon an era of depreciated currency. Not content with the inauguration of the ruinous policy which haa brought down the wagea of the laborer and the price of farm products, its advocates now offer a new policy which will diminish the value of the money in which wagea and products are paid.

Applause. "Against both of these we stand opposed. Our creed embraces an honest dollar, an untarnished national credit adequate revenues for the uses of the months' imprisonment with hard labor. If he should be set to work on the treadmill he would still bo able to exercise his muscles in the old fashion. This is one of those cases in which the punishment could be said to fit the crime.

Pittsburg Times: Down with the supreme court, down with the federal authority, down with national with the with the old leaders of democracy, to perdition with everything, is new as a campaign cry in this country, but it seems to have followers enough to spring a presidential candidate. New York Mail and Express: Ex-Governor Pattison, of Pennsylvania, will require all the time between now and November to explain to the delegation of that state why he failed to free ita members from the instruction of the state convention to present his name for the presidency. The ex-governor's silence, hi view of New York's position and the attitude of the gold men generally, places him in a most unenviable light before the country. Cleveland World: Herr Most says he's a good friend of Altgeld and would like to see him president of the United States. Luckily for the United States, Altgeld was born in Europe, came to the United States, accumulated money, loans it aud makes the interest payable in gold and then reviles the land aa a nation where tyrants and oppressors rule and give the poor man no chance.

It is no wonder that Most admires but he can't niake him president. HOW THEY CAME BACK. Staunch gold men went chocring out into the west, Out Into the west, where the sun robs down: Each booming the candidato that ho liked best, And thinking he'd capture the whole blamed town. For men will think they're working a cinch, And from hard tasks they never will II inch Wlion they're trying to save tholr parly. Gold candldatos hoard tho wild hissoa and hoots, And wrung tholr bands as they wept In despair.

For silver! tea walloped them out, of thoir boots And laughed at their claims in thu spoils to sharu. For men will hopo though sllverilos shriek, And all in vain a triumph thoy'll seek When they'ro anxious to save their purty Sad gold men came straggling back into the complete aa hia elderB, but light in "color and Boft aa parchment. When he is young he is a cherished household pet among the native children, who find the pretty living balls an endless source of delight. The old world furnishes a living ball in the scaly ant-eater. Resides its protecting horny scales its tail is very broad and possesses muscles of such grent power that Beveral men are unable to move it from its position, closely wrapped about the ball into which the animal makes itoelf.

The common hedgehog, with his covering of spines, is much better known. He is an adept at rolling up into a bristling sphere whenever an enemy, a snake or a dog generally, approaches, and he is able to fall even twenty feet, lighting on his spines without any apparent injury. It is even said thet he frequently merely leta go and falls when he is too lazy to climb down from his elevated perch. The strangest animal in the world perhaps, is the duck-bill platypus of Australia and rolling himself into a ball is one of his dearest delights. An English naturalist who kept a pair of these curious fellows alive to study their ways made drawings of the different Bhapes they put themselves into and their common sleeping position he found to be that of a ball.

To get himself into this form the animal placed the fore paws under the beak, bending its head downward; it then laid the hind paws over the mandibles and lastly turned the tail up over all, to make the whole complete when it looked like a well made fur ball. The naturalist was able to draw down the tail and thus disclose the method of packing, but unless the creature was sound asleep it would growl like a savage puppy. The largest animal known to assume the ball shape for safety is the black bear of the Himalayas, called also the Tibetan sun bear, and about the size and color of our American black bear. When pursued by hunters hia mountain home he will draw hiniBelf up into a large ball of fur and deliberately roll down the steep hillsides, bounding off the rocks and, of course, reaching the valley much more quickly than any hunter who cannot follow his short cut. At the bottom he simply unrolls, shakes himself and walks off at his leisure.

The ball armadillio of South America can roll himself up into so secure an armor that the jaguar, prowling through the woods in search of food, may roll him about, but can neither crush him be tween his teeth nor force him open with his paw. The teasing monkey is com pelled to forego the pleasure of pulling the little armadillo's tail and man alone, who can take up the ball and carry it home, ia the plucky creature's only really dangerous enemy. The armadillo is scarcely more than a foot long and is covered with a horny case, curiously divided into six-sided plates exactly like a decorated blanket field in place by three girdles. Over his wide face, al most hiding his eyes, is a painted shield of the same horny substance and another protects the top of his short tail.

Sewall has been director of some of the branch lines of the Atchison, Toneka and Santa Fe railroad, a director of the Mexican Central railway in 18S4, 1885 and 1880. lie is also president of the Bath bank. Mr. Sewall came out for free coinage of silver in June, 1895, a fact which con tributed to the refusal of his follow delegates to Chicago to continue him on the national committee. Mr.

Sewall waa the democratic candidate for United Statea senator at the session of the Maine legis lature in 181K5. Mr. Sewall haa always made his home at Bath. He married Emma Crooker, of Bath, a daughter of the late Charles Crooker, who also was long and actively identified with ship building at liatn, on the -itth of March, has had three sons Harold who achieved distinction in the diplomatic service in Samoa during the hrst Cleveland administration, and who has since joined the republican party; William a member of the firm of Arthur Sewall and Dummer, who died in infancy. Mr.

Sewall'a attitude in regard to free silver brought forth the following from the editor of the Eastern Argus Idem.) of Portland, something over a year ago: "Mr. Sewall, democratic national com mitteeman from Maine, does not repre seut the sentiment of the democracy of this state in his approval of the action of the Illinois tree silver convention, ihere are silver democrats in Maine, and they are not despicable in point of numbers, but the great majority of the party stands by the Cleveland administration on this question, and holds that free silver coinage is unwise, unless undertaken by international agreement. Most of the silver men in Maine belong to the populist party, though some are to be found in both the democratic and republican ranks. Mr. Sewall's utterances have very little significance to anybody but himself.

It is a long time since he voiced the sentiments of the Maine democracy, lie is not in sympathy with them on the tariff question or the currency question or the free ship question. a democratic paper in Maine upholds the silver heresy." The Eepudiation Ticket. Krom the l'liiladoluhia Tlmos. (dcni.) The so-called democratic national con vention in Chicago commenced its work by the absolute repudiation of every doctrine of democratic faith, and nominated William Jennings Bryan for president, to be the leader in the great battle for and against the maintenance of business tranquillity and public and private credit. The convention posed as red-handed in the crime of repudiation.

First, it re pudiated every honest principle of the party it professed to represent, and the chief article in its faith is the declaration in favor of the repudiation of national and individual obligations. It was a convention of repudiationists pure and simple, and no measure of ability or character in its candidates can temper its assaults upon the honor and life of the nation. The candidate fairly represents the sentiments of the convention. He is better than Pitchfork Tillman and Anarchist Altgeld, who were the master spirits of the body, but he stands as distinctly for repudiation, for agrarianism and for anarchy as do Tillman in the senate and Herr Most, the apostle of anarchy in New York. Candidates cannot be separated fronf the cause they have espoused and on which they must stand or fall before the people of the country.

Ihere is now one high duty imposed upon every faithful citizen, regardless of his party amhationa, and that is to repudiate the repudiators of the Chicago convention. The platform should be shunned by patriotic voters as they would shun pestilence, ana the candi dates must be opposed because they represent the purposes of revolutionists. Until this lBsue shall be settled all other questions of national policv sink into utter insignificance, and all good citizens must unite to repudiate by an overwhelming vote the Chicago repudiators. M'KINLEY FOB SOUND MONEY. Patriotism Above Party and National Honor Bearer Than Any Party Name.

Canton, July 12. It waa less than an hour after the adjournment of the Chicago convention yesterday when the Thirty-second Ward Foraker club, of Cleveland, arrived in Canton, 300 strong, with their wives and daughters. They marched at once to Governor McKinley's residence. After President D. H.

Lucas had made a presentation address Gover nor MoKinlev said: "Mr. President, Ladies and Gentlemen and my Fellow Citizens: It gives me very great pleasure to welcome you to my home city and to my home, and I appreciate, more than I can find words to express, the honor and the compli ment of this call. I thank you for your congratulations and the assurance of support which you make for the great principles for which this year the republican party stands. Applause. "1 congratulate you upon having for your spokesman one of the most illustrious of our statesmen in Ohio, Joseph a.

Ihen it was a struggle to preserve the government of the United States. Now it ia a struggle to preserve the financial honor of the government of the United States.

Now, men of all sections can unite, and will unite, to rebuke the repudiation of our obligations and the debasement of our currency. "In this contest patriotism ia above party and national honor ia dearer than any party name. The currency and credit of the government are good now, and must be kept good forever. Our trouble is not with the character of the money we have, but with the threat to debase it. We have the same currency that we had in 1S92 good the world over, and unquestioned bv any people.

Then, too, we had unexampled credit and prosperity. Our difficulty now ia to get that money in circulation and in vested in productive enterprises which furnish employment to American labor, Great applause. "Thia ia impossible with the distrust CREDIT IS GOOD AT ROTHERT'S ARTHUR SEWALL, OF MAINE, CHOSEN He Has a Barrel and is a Recent Con' vert to the Free Silver Craze Got the Nomination on the Fifth Ballot. PROMINENT AS A RAILROAD MAN The Chicago convention wound up it8 wild career by naming Arthur Sewall, of Maine, aa the candidate for vice president on the fifth ballot. Sewall ia rich and the resident of an eastern state which haa been peculiarly susceptible to financial heresy two considerations that secured him the nomination.

McLean might have had the place but for the stout opposition of the Bland forces and of Candidate Bryan himself. Sixteen names were voted for on the first ballot, representing states of every section. Bland and several ot her candidates withdrew from the race, leaving McLean and Sewall the only prominent candidates. After a hasty consultation the silver leaders determined to throw their strength to the Maine man, and his nominafion followed in a trice. The result on the final ballot was as follows: Sewall, 508; McLean, 32; Harrity, 11; Williams, of Massachusetts, Clark, 22; Pattison, Daniel 3t5.

A half-hearted attempt at a procession, a few wild cheers, a little routine business and the convention adjourned. Most of the sound money men took no part in the convention, the vote on each ballot being about 250 votes short of the total number of delegates. 1 he bulk of the Pennsylvania delegation leftChicogo Saturday morning. Gold advocates in Illinois favor the nomination of a separate democratic ticket, but general sentiment in other centers opposes' such action as likely to weaken the strength of the sound money forces. Scores of life-long democrats in the eastern states announce their intention of voting outright for McKinley, despite their continued devotion to tariff reform principles.

A large number of the most influential newspapers in the northeast and middle states, and some in the south, refuse point blank to support the Chicago ticket or platform. William McKinley, ink addressing a visiting club at Canton, compared the present crisis with that of '61. Following are the votes by states on the fifth and last ballot when Sewall received 508 votes and the nomination: STATIC.

Total 251. MR. SEWALL'S CAREER. Arthur Sewall, who was nominated for vice president at Chicago to-day, was born in Bath, on November 25,1835, and was the third son of the late William D. Sewall.

He waa educated in the public Bchoola of Bath, and after an apprenticeship under his father, formed in 1854 with hia brother Edward, the firm of E. A. Sewall, ship builders and commission agents. The Bath Sewalla have been closely identified with Bath's chief industry, shipbuilding, since 1823, when William D.Sewall opened the small shipyard on the banks of the Kennebec.nest to the family homestead. He aa succeeded in business by Clark Sewall.

These two earlier firms built twenty-nine wooden vessels between 1823 and 1854. The firm of E. and A. Sewall waa dissolved in 1S79 by the death of Edward Sewall. Thia firm, in its twenty-four years of existence, had built forty-six wooden vessels.

In 1879 Arthur Sewall, his son William and his nephew, Samuel S. Sewall, a son of the late Ed ward Sewall, formed the firm of Arthur Sewall i. which is etui in existence. The firm has built many wooden vessels, among them being the Rappahannock since burned at sea tne Mienandoan, the Susquehanna, three of the largest ships ever built, and the Roanoke, the largest wooden sailing vessel afloat. To meet the conditions at the present time, Arthur Sewall Co.

began some years ago to equip their shipyard with a plant lor mating eieei vessels, iney built the hrst steel American cupper, Dirigo. Mr. Sewall was for many veara promi nent as a railroad man. He became a director of the Maine Central Railroad company in 1S75, and in 1SS4 waa elected ita president, serving in that capacity until the election of Mr. Wilaon eeveral LITTLEST PRICES IN ALTOONA government, protection to labor and industry, preservation of the home market and reciprocity which will extend our foreign markets.

"Upon thia platform we stand, and submit its declarations to the sober and considerate judgment of the American people. Great applause. 1 thank you again for this call and greeting, and it will give me very great pleasure, ladiea and gentlemen, to meet you all personally." Applause. Populism Rejected. From the New York Times (deux).

The candidate and the platform of the populist convention at Chicago are abso lutely reiected by the democracy of New-York. In this citv all the papers that have supported democracy refuse to support Chicago populism. The Staats-Zei-tung, Herald and Sun advocate McKinley rather than Bryan. Among public men and politicians Bryan and populism are repudiated by such men as ex-Gover nor flower, Perry McClellan and Bartlett, Frederic R. Coudert, ex-Mayor Grant, E.

Ellery Anderson, William Steinway, Edward Cooper, William R. Grace, De Lancey Nicoll, John D. Crimmins, J. Sergeant Cram, Abrarn S. Hewitt, J.

Edward Simmons, Henry Hentz. In the interior of the Btate such papers as the Buffalo Courier, the Buffalo Enquirer and the Utica Observer repudiate populism. In the eastern states papers like lhe Boston Herald, The Springfield The Providence Journal, The Hart ford Times, The New Haven Register, and such political leaders as Winslow Warren collector of Jioston; ex-Mayor Peabody, of Boston, ex-Governor Waller, of Connecticut, join in spurning populism. In Philadelphia The Times and The Record, in Baltimore The News and The Sun, in New Jersey The Trenton Times and The Newark News, in Delaware The Wilmington Every Evening take the same course. Nor is fidelity to genuine democracy confined to the east.

In St. Louis the Courier Journal, the Anzeiger, and the Evening Post denounce the populist ticket. In Chicago the Staats-Zeitung and the Chronicle, the strongest democratic journal of the city in which the populist convention waa held, join such staunch democrats as John R. Walsh, Collector Russell, and Controller Eckels in denying the claims of Bryan as a democratic candidate. This is not a bolt: it is the vindication of true democracy.

It is stripping the disguise from an impudent pretender and whipping him out of the party whose leadership he seeks to usurp. Repudia tion, swindling and revolution are not democratic and have not the slightest hold on the hearts or consciences of democrats. It is the duty as it will be the pleasure of democrats to crush them so completely that they will never in our generation trouble the land. PEN POINTS. Pertinent Paragraphs Taken From Some Leading Newspapers.

Pittsburg Dispatch: The democracy having made a sixteen reflect that there is a vast difference be tween laying it and winning it. Baltimore American: Thev say it is the cause of the poverty-stricken farm ers and the downtrodden workmen, but, as usual, they nominated a lawyer. Philadelphia Times: There's about as much chance of the two wings of the party flapping together now as there ia that the democratic bird will victoriously do it next fall. Chicago Record: After Tillman had denounced the newspapera good and hard the convention hastened to nominate young Billy Bryan, a first-rate newspaper man from Omaha. Philadelphia Ledger: At Chicago, as at St.

Louis, Pennsylvania sized up beside New York very much as a rat would beside an elephant. Has statesmanship entirely died out of thia state? Philadelphia Press: First free silver. then fiat money and then repudiation. These are the three stages toward ruin proposed to a prosperous and industrious nation by the Chicago convention. Pittsburg News: After thia week the current news reports will contain no more of politics than is necessary to keep the country posted on the progress of the democratic funeral procession to the free silver cemetery.

New York World: "Where is New York now?" shouted Tillman to the mob. New York with her thirtv-six electoral votes is in the republican col umn for this election, where the Till-mana and Altgelds have driven her. New York Sun: The so-called demo cratic national convention at Chicago nominated the Hon. Arthur Sewall, of Maine, for vice president, on the fifth ballot yesterday, and then performed its first useful service by adjourning with out day. Chicago Inter Ocean: No two conven tions were ever in greater contrast than that at St.

Louis in June and that at Chicago in July. That at St. Lonia upheld the honor and faith of the nation; that in Chicago haa not only violated both, bnt has proved treacherous to its own party- Philadelphia Inquirer: An English "scorcher" haa been sentenced to four To the People of Altoona and Vicinity, Greeting The undersigned takes pleasure in announcing that Standard Furniture Company has been purchased by him; been thoroughly overhauled and beautified, and the largest and niture in Altoona will be found Store in here. of Bedroom Suits!
