During the Dny.
Senator Ilanna wan out arlr yesterday
morning, In spite of the faut that he had
nut retired until after 1 o clock. Ho pro
fessed himself aa much refreshed and feel
ing In good condition tor tho day's worl!.
Tho llrit Htop after leaving Lincoln was
made at Ilcntrlco, where a crowd of 2,000
pcoplo hnd gathered to flee Mr. Itanna.
Thu stop was not on the Itinerary, but
"Undo Mark" good-naturedly accepted the
situation. C. II, Dempster, one of tho
liirgeMt employers of labor In the Btate,
presented Senator Hanna to the crowd,
which wont up Into the air when the scn
ntor tone to speak. Mr. Hanna had taken
off his hat, when some one la tho crowd
yelled:
"Put your hat on, Hanna; we know you
have no horns." ,
And the senator accepted the kindly ad
monition, for the wind was blowing stiff
and strong.
From Beatrice the run was through the
peach country of the Antelope atato along
tho valley of thu tlluo and It was a rovela
tion to tho party to sen thu evidence- of
culture and refinement on every hand.
Wjinorc Mm u if i lend Id Crtuvtl.
One of tho biggest meetings of tho day
was held at Wyniore, ult of 4,000 people
turning out to listen to Hanna and Dolll
ver, who did tho spcnklng. Five hundred
citizens of Concordlu, Kan., wero In tho
parade that escorted tho speakers to a
stand built at thu Intersection of two of
Wymoro's business street, which was pro
fusely decorated with bunting. In fact, tho
whole town seemed to have been given
over to the decorator, while pictures of
Hanna and McKlnley adorned every win
dow In tho place. Hanna was at his very
best hero and as tho crowd warmed up to
him ho warmed up to tho audience, until
ho had them going with his sallies of
homely wit and wisdom.
Bald Senator Hanna: "The great out
pouring of the pcoplo of Nebraska must
mean something. What Is It? (Cries of
McKlnley!') Well, now, that's rather dis
appointing. I thought you hnd coma out
to seo me. I have been very well adver
tised, you know.
"All through McKlnley's term so far
he has proved himself one of the most
wise and Just presidents ever known, equal
to any emergency, prompt to meet any con
dition and he has carried us through the
troublous times of a war and following tt
have been International questions of
greater Importance than havo ever con
fronted us In tho history of our country.
I want Nebraska to tell mo that from, now
forward you will always be godd; that you
ura going to glvo us two republican United
States senators. (Cries of 'Wo will!')
Well, now, I will rememher that promise
u nil It you don't keep It tlio next time 1
como I will havo my horns on." (Great
laughter.)
AiiNtvrra h lluerjr Promptly.
Hanna had been talking about labor when
r volco directly underneath the stand from
which ho was speaking aBked: "What has
llryan dona tor the laboring man?"
The sound came llko a volco from the
tomb. - - -, - '
Leaning far over the rail, Mr. Ilanna
placed his hand to his mouth and looking
down In tho direction from whence the
question cama, said:
"Conlldcntlally, hiy frlond. not a thing."
Within u second the crowd seemed to
dlvlmt tho answer and the shout that went
up made tho echoes ring In Gage county.
J. I). Pope, candidate for congress In the
Fourth district, presided over the mooting
at Wymoro und tho hearty welcomo ac
corded tho senator must have madn hi in
additionally proud of the district In which
ho reuldeB, one of tho most conservative
In the commonwealth. On the platform at
Wymoro wero II. W. Dimmit, S. B. Yoder,
A. It. Newton, T. P. Hargrove, Gus Graff
and II. F. Fulton.
A featuro of tho day at Wymoro was
the presence of Company G of the First
Nebraska, which had served with Colonel
Stotsenburg In tho Philippines. They were
garbed In white suits and whlto slouch hats
and occupied tho position of honor In thu
parade, which was Iod by a troop of Rough
Illdcrs.
l'ruud I'nwnec'ft Welcome.
Tho reception at Pawnee City was a con
tinuation of that accorded Senator Hanna
and pnrty throughout tho Nebraska trip.
Tho special train was met by a delegation
of Pawneo'ii boat known citizens, Including
Mayor J. T. Tronnery, I. N. Hasslor, J. F.
flrlinth, tho former acting as chairman, the
speochmaklng being from a platform In
tho court house square.
Mayer Tronnery presetited Senator Fryn,
who woio n large badge furnished him by
tho Pawneo City delegation, and at once
got Into tho hearts of tho 3,000 people by
exclaiming that ho was not a senator for
Maine, but a naturalized citizen of Pawneo.
In the few minutes he spoko he asked his
hearers to liolp elect republican doIegat?s
to tho legislature that would Insure two
United States senators from this state and
that he looked forward confidently to a
roturn to the dnys whon the republicans
held tho senata for thirty years as a but
wnrk against doinocrntlc legislation.
Senator Hanna followed Fryo with I
statement that caught tho crowd.

bed-wetting, depend upon it. the cause of
tho difficulty Is kidney trouble, and the first
step should be towards the treatment of
these Important prrans. This unpleasant
trouble Is due to a diseased condition of the
kidneys and bladder and not to a habit as
most people suppose.
Women a3 well as men are made mis

and both need the same great remedy. ,

receive back Into the republican party this
magnificent state, and I feel sure you won't
disappoint mo."
"We wont' We wont!" yelled the crowd.
"Wo are going to glvo Dryan a surprise
party." raid Mr. Hanna.
"That's what we're going to do," said
a man holding onto the limb of a tree.
"Kven the man up a tree says so," quickly
replied Hanna, which caught thu crowd.
In point of enthusiasm the meeting at
Pawnee City was ono of the very best of
the trip. The close attention accorded the
speakers and the applause which followed
every sally showing clearly that the people
were thinking.
Tnll Hock Mint (o Sri- II tin.
An unexpected atop was made at Table
Hock, Senator Hanna appearing on the
platform of his car long enough to speak
a few words, shaking hands with a number
of young women. There was a Bryan club
on the platform shouting for tho "cheer
less leader," but the young women drowned
out tho cheers by Btnglng one or two Mc
Klnley songs to Hanna's enjoyment. Along
In the lato 'GOs Table Hock was one ot tho
stations on John IJrown's underground rail
road. Escaping slaves were brought across
at this point from Kansas, kept In con
cealment during the day and then con
veyed to Brownvllle at night, where they
wero sent Into Iowa. Two of tho "con
ductors" on this underground railroad, A.
E. Heywood and John Wood, still live
there a fid both of their families were rep
resented In the crowd at the station.
A large crowd met the Hanna special
as It pulled Into Humboldt, Richardson
county There was a disposition on the
part of somo ot tho crowd to kcop Dryan's
natno to tho front when Hanna was speak
ing, but the conservatively Inclined would
not allow any Interruption to bo put upon
the speaker, who was listened to moat at
tentively, Hanna speaking from a plat
form Just outstdo tho railroad staMcn.
At Falls City thero was considerable dis
turbance around the edge ot the crowd,
which numbered G,000 people, and an effort
was mado to ntampedo Hunna, but be
wouldn't bo stampeded. Dryan plcturos
wero in a number of windows, and a num
ber of men woro badges with dollar
marks all over them, ono man attempting
to pin such a badgo on Hanna, but a friend
Intervened, receiving qulto a cut on tho
hand from, tho Dryan sympathizer. Not
withstanding tho efforts of the Bryanltes
to break up tho meeting it was one ot tho
very bent of thu day, Hanna seemingly get
ting better as the day woro on.
.Spt-uUlnic Stand Cite "Way.
At Auburn a large crowd was seated In
the grandstand at the raco track. Here
a temporary platform for the speakers
had been erected Just In front of the
Judge's stand. It was but a temporary
structure, hastily put together, and not
calculated to stand tho strain of much
weight, but no Booner had Senator Hanna
appeared upon It thnn there was a rush.
Men and boys swarmed up tho steps and
clambered over tho sides. Suddenly, while
Victor B. Dolllver was speaking, tho frail
structure gave way with a crash and fell
llko a houso of cards. Men, boys, timbers
and chairs were mixed In confusion on the
ground. Senator Ilanna sprawled on hlo
back In the midst of the wreckage but
was on his feet among tho first, and was
among the busiest In the work ot ex
tricating the others. It was found that only
ono person was seriously hurt, a boy of about
12 named Hughes, who had climbed up on
tho braces on one side. His leg was caught
and broken, besides .being badly bruised.
Senator Hanna saw the boy's father carry
his Injured son nway In his arms, inquired
his name, and after the train had started
again sent back a telegram ot sympathy
and regret at the unfortunate occurrence.
It 'seems wonderful that no one else was
Injured; When the wreck had been cleared
up Senator Hanna mounted a chair, remark
ing: "This mU3t be a democratic plat
form and will servo as an Illustration ot
what a flimsy affair the democrats have
erec.ed and what wo will do with It in
November." Ho went on:
"Thero Is only ono real Issue In this
campaign, my friends, nnd that Is let well
enough alone. (A voice: "Protection "and
sound money.') Yes, that's right. That
la all there is to It, my friends, becauso
on that foundation rests all prosperity. I
am speaking to all of you, no matter what
party you havo militated with in the past.
It Is an honest man who will acknowledge
that he has been mistaken and If by prac
tical demonstration you aro satisfied that
the conditions ot today are better for tho
Interests of the whole pcoplo than those
we experienced under democratic rule from
1S33 to 1897, then you would bo certainly
Justified In Joining your neighbors and
friends all over this country and voting
to maintain tho present era ot prosperity
which means so much to you. Let us Join
together nnd call ourselves tho American
party and .do what Is best for all tho peo
ple." Talk Trust nt Nehrnaka City.
A stop ot an hour was made at Nebraska
City, Senator Hanna bolng escorted to his
carriage by Hon. J. Sterling Morton, ex
secretary of agriculture, and Paul Jesson,
who acted as chairman of the meeting.
Ilanna was at lust In tho homo ot the
octopus, according to Dryan. The starch
works could be seen from the court house
grounds and Its whl3tlcs blew a noisy wel
come to the train as It pulled Into the
station, nearly an hour late. But tho delay
only added zest to tho demonstration aud
nowhere along tho whole- routo was Senator
Ilanna accorded a moro courteous hearing.
Thero were cries for Bryan, but they came
from children and wero lost in tho tumul
tuous applause that greeted tho senator's
tolling words as he tore asido tho mask of
Bryan nnd showed tho man underneath.
Among other things Senator Hanna said!
"It has been claimed tho republican party
Is ufratd to discuss tho question ot trusts.
I'm not. (Great applause.) You aro get
ting to a question that I know something
about. I havo been In business for forty
years and havo in my employ 6,000 men.
Mr. Lliyan doesn't know a thing about busi
ness. Ho, never did, and ha la too old to
lonrn."
Mr. Hanna then entered Into a discussion
of the trust Issuo and reminded his hearers
that every law against trusts on the statute
books at tho northern states had been
passed by republican legislatures. He re
ferred to tho resolution Introduced In con
gress last winter to amend tho constitution
so as to make It possible for the federal
government to control trusts which wero
pernicious In their effect on trade, and
stated that It was dofeatcd by democratlo
votes. Continuing, Mr Hanna said:
"Why, my friends, according to Mr.
Bryan's Ideas, there Is not a single manu
facturing concern, thousands of which are
growing up all over this land, bringing
prosperity with them, enlarging and de
veloping our resources, furnishing labor
to thousands, but that ts a trust, and should
bo wiped from tho face of the earth. You
havo had aa object lesson In your own town
hero, whon ho attempted to destroy that
great Industry of yours, the National starch
factory. Tho policy which ho advises, If
followed, would paralyze all tho Industries
of this country, because capital, always
timid, would shrink from any Ihve'slrdouu
which could bo reached through tho legisla
tion ot demagogues.
"Now, my friends, I want to thank the
good people of Nebraska for this cordial
reception, which seriously I regard as one'
of thu happiest ovents of my wholo life.
I havo como among you professing to be
an honest man. professing to have done my
sharo In the building up of tho industries
of this country, nnd I am devoting my
time and strength to thla work for no other
purpose than to serve ray fellow men and
my country" (Applause,)
At one point 1a his speech the senator
turned around to take a sip ot water. Gen
eral Stewart M. Woodford, late minister
to Spain, was on the platform with his
young wife. Turning to General Woodford
Hanna said-
"This Is worse than sawing wood."
"Yes," responded General Woodford, "but
you get something more than sawdust out
of it."
At another point he was telling what
Bryan would do If he were elected presi
dent. Turning squarely about and facing
J, Sterling Morton he said:
"But ho ain't going to be president by
a good deal," and tho crowd yelled.
Aa the party was leaving for the next
stop Senator Ilanna was surrounded by a
group of pretty girls, champions of two

A delegation of tho reception committee
appointed to meet Senatot Hanna boarded
the train at Nebraska City, John L. Web
ster and Judgo Baxter, coming through
with the party, which arrived at tho Web
ster streot station at 6:35, having com
pleted a trip of 470 miles In two days nnd
making twenty-3vo stops, ranging from
fifteen minutes to ono hour, and holdln
two night meetings at Lincoln and Omaha.
Since Monday noon, when the Hanna party
left Chicago, they have traveled 1,813 mllos
through tho following statoa: WUconsln.
400 miles; Minnesota, 2S0; South Dakota,
CG3; Nebraska, 470, and added COO miles
more to tho string when they left Omaha
last night for Chicago, making a total of
2,313 miles traveled In six days.
After leaving Weeping Water the train
was stopped a llttlo way out of town for
water. Hero Senator Hanna posed for Tho
Bee photographer, nnd as the latter was
getting ready, the engineer of tho train
camo up.
"Here, you're Just the man I want," said
Senator Hanna, grasping the engineer by
the arm. "Wo aro both engineers. I run
tho pnrty nnd you run mo."
"Well, I guess I'vo got you faded then,
senator," said tho onglneor with a grin.
About 6:30 p. m. in tho midst of a rain
storm the special train arrived at tho
Webster street depot in Omaha.

without announced tho arrival of Senator
Hanna.
Velcomr for Senator llnnna.
When the latter camo upon the platform
accompanied by Mayor Moorcs, Edward
Hosewater and a number ot other gentle
man In bis local escort, the entire audi
ence was upon Us feet, the air was lllled
with hats and handkerchiefs and tho ap
plause was dcatonlng. It continued for
a constdorablo period, while Sonator Hanna
advanced and bowed his acknowledgment,
He manifested his pleasure at the size at
tho audlcnca in his smiling survey of Its
dimensions. Another protracted round of
cheering followed his introduction by Mr.
Greene.
Senator Hanna begged the Indulgence ot
his audience, saying that be had been In
Nebraska forty-eight hours and they knew
what that meant.
"And now, as I am about to leave," he
continued, "I want to express my deop
senso of appreciation ot your reception
and tho kind attention you have given the
many poor speeches I havo made. I am
not surprised at the slr.o of the audiences
as my advanco agent, W. J. Bryan, has ud
vortlsed me thoroughly."
Senator Hanna declared that all of the
Issues manufactured at Lincoln, Including
tho paramount issuo, aro simply collateral.
The only Issuo thero Is Is comprised In ono
sentence lot woll enough alone. That
ought to satisfy overyono with any sense
of responsibility for his family and his
country. The mulntenanco of sound money
and protection for American Industry la
simply a business proposition. It makcB
no difference to what party ono belongs, ho
Is now confronted with an opportunity to
exercise not only his ballot, but his Judg
ment and sound sense. Tho pcoplo are
ns well qualified to Judge of policies and
conditions as any candidate, and In th:s
lnstanco the appeal Is so directly to the
business Judgment that no sophistry or
demagogism can come betweon the peoplo
and reason. Every man has a responsi
bility, and he would remind tho people of
Nebraska that If they would redeem their
state and bring It back into the repub
lican column, where It belongs, they must
do their dutyIn November.
Carrlra rimnunt Iteonllf ottona.
"I leave the state," said Senator Hanna,
"with moat pleasing recollections and a
conviction that the people fully under
stand tho condition and that tholr voto
will bo ono of confidence for tha repub
lican party and William McKlnley and for
tho continuance of tho conditions which
have brought happiness to their firesides."
Senator Thurston was called for and re
sponded briefly, after which hundreds made
a wild rush for the privilege of grasp
ing tho hand of Senator Hanna, an am
bition which was gratified for many ot
them.
At tho conclusion of the speaking Sena
tor Hanna, accompanied by Mayor Moores,
Edward Ilosowator and M. H. Collins,
stopped into a carriage and wero driven
rapidly to the Union depot, where the sona
tor boarded his prlvato car. The train to
which It was attnehed pulled out imme
diately for the east.
Tho drive from tho tent to the depot
was attended by no incident of moment.
On the way from his hotel to South Omaha
a stono had been thrown through the wln-dow-in
Mr. Hanna's carriage, and to avoid
a possible repetition of this episode a
special detail of police preceded the car
riage In a motor car and another, also In
a motor, followed. Tho bluecoats did not
show themselves, however, and tho sena
tor was unaware of their presence.

Governor Roosevelt was In fair voice and
mado his points with his usual vigor and
emphasis. His reference to Senator Well
ington wero received with mlnglel hisses
nnd annlauso und when he spoke ot
Mr. Dryan thero was considerable cheer
ing and stamping of feet. Aside from this
thero wero no Interruptions, which was
contrary to expectations, as It had been
rumored that men would bo sent to tho
meeting for that purpose.
Thtt governor reached Baltimore) at 4:f5
p. m. Ho was met at thu Union station
by ex-Governor Lowndes, United States
Senator McComaa und several other mem

or public reception, tho governor remain

This was dono at his own request, in order
to afford him a much needed rest.
His tlrut address was delivered lnstde

Klnley had gono too rashly Into it and Mr.
Bryan that ho had not gone Into It quick
enough. Mr. Wellington Is for protection,
or wild for protection; I do not know how
sharply ho has turned the corner since.
They wero together oninly ono point: I be
llove they both supported thu treaty of
peaoo and. therefore. If cither one of them
was blessed with a senso of consistency he
would hava been stopped from his present
criticism, but. on tho contrary, on the war
and on the tariff they stood at the oppo-
slto poles and so tncy camo logomer.
Hut Hryou iuiiI Ontrlch Wellington.
Gi-ntlemcn. If you will read tho early
books of natural history, before It was
ultri sia mi pTnrt science, you will 11ml
that tho early naturalists had ono group of
four-footed beasta who had four legs and
then they had a group of birds, tho birds
having1 two wings, and then thero were two
iihhorr.nit nnceien mat mev ciasHiueu 10-
i cether; they put tho bat and tho ostrich to
gether, because ono nnu wmKs unu uio
other hnd not. And it seems to bo on some
what tho name prlnctplo that Mr. Welling
ton has found himself In alliance with
Bryan. We will havo lost some others of
llttlo faith. You aro always certain, gentle
men, when you follow a bold courau to
slough oil certain men, but wo have gained
others1.
It haa been a pleasant tiling Indeed to
seo life-long democrats llko General Drags
of Wisconsin (applause), General Daniel
Sickles and General Frank Slegol of New
York (applause), who wore tho blue uni
form, again turning to the defense of all
that makeo our national greatness, us we
rend greatness right, when national great
ness Is Imperiled, but it Is oven a more
pleasant thing to have hud thu experience
I enjoyed in Kenturky, In truvellntt with
ox-confedorates. soldiers llko tho grand old
war veterans, General Duckner and General
DaHll Duke. Men who now clasp hands
with their erstwhile foes and who wore the
bluo when the strife for civic righteousness
bi-gan; such men as Fltzhugh Lci and Joe
Wheeler, put on the blue again when In 1803
tho trumpets blew for foreign war. I feel
that wo might have a peculiar right to
welcomo those men, to bo glad that they
are with us, because this Is a contest In
which eastorner and westerner, northerner
und southerner, whatever tho man's birth
place might be, whatever his creed or his
natural origin. Is vitally interested, pro
vided only ho has thu root of Americanism
In him.
Tho speaker then commented upon Mr.
Bryan's speech In Baltimore in 1S3S, re
calling tho prophecies mado by blm at
that time, which, the speaker pointed out,
had not been fulfilled and the promises
made, which Mr. Bryun would now try to
carry out If ho Is given tho power, saying;
Tho other day thero waa published In tho
Daily Record of Columbia, a. C, a letter
from Captain Claude K. Sawyer, n South
Carolina democrat, to Senator John T.

privately, lie complains of tho adminis
tration of President McKlnley In the Phil
ippines, not because It has not gono too
far, but beeausa he thinks It ha.i not cone
nearly far enough, holding that tho presi

"Can thla bo correct? Is It possible?
What havo all these good men from Luw

fered for? Did wo glvo SDaln I20.000.ooO for
theao Islands to turn around and present
them to thu treacherous Agulnaldo, who
sold out his peoplo and then refused to
stand by hia bargain? There Is one thing
sure and cprtaln. It will bo a flat udmlssl-jn
that tho United States Is defeated, that
the Filipinos havo whipped us. that our
Htatesmun are but children, that when we
do a thing and It meuts with strenuous op
position we havo not tho stamina to stand
up for our acts. It will ruin us In tho eyes
ot tho great nations.
"Wo ennnot give to those people a stable
government unless wo govern them, be
cause they are not capable of self-government;
they aro cruel beyond description.
They will retort to treachery, poison and
every foul .-ans known to savage races.
We havo a plain, Indlsputed title to theso

Surely President McKlnley and the repub
ll an part do not Intend to give up these
I lands ' Suppos" we set up a Filipino gov
ernment hers and pretend to defend them
against all othT nations. It we do we
will soon get Into war with every nation
uf thu world having commerce here.
"They will cheat, wroiift. defraud, steal
from and Imprison foreigners, and these
waters will be full of pirates In a year
an.! then they will sell us oat and turn
around nnd tight us. We might Just as
well sot out to protect nn archipelago nf
rnttlesnukes. To turn this government
over to these people and then undert ike
to protect them against other pow-rs
would bo turning our hand against the
world. They don't know how to govern
themselves. They havo no Idea of Justice
or of government. ,
"Do you know that the democratic plat
form will cost at least 1.W0 Uvea of Am"r

day that they were fighting to hold out
until Uryan Is elected nnd then all will lo
well wtth them. Kvery speech he makes
Is cabled over here, translated and sent
broadcast."
Ho goes on to explain that failure to tiso
proper measures amounts simply to "up
holding tho rebels In murder nnd treason."
I call your attention esoeelallv to tho
terrlblo words, "tho democratic platform
will cost at least 1,000 Uvea of American
soldiers here."
This 1 tho statement of a southerner
and a democrat, a man who Is on tlio
ground writing to a southerner. No Juster
nnd moro terrible arraignment of a croup
of politicians was ever made.
Mr. Uryan and his supporters aro prop
erly responsible for tho continuance of
bloodshed In tho Islands, It has been many
a long year slnco we havo seen In Amer
ica a group of political leaders, who mer
ited such sound condemnation by ull rlght
thluklng men.
BRYAN'S LASTDAY IN NEW YORK
Tonr of the Umpire Stnte Concluded
with Thu Meeting;" at Huf

BUFFALO. N. Y., Oct. 20. Mr. Bryan

ings In this city tonight. One ot theje
mootlngs was held at tho Broadway mar
ket and was ua open air gathering and
the other at Convention hall.
Boforo reaching Buffalo ho had mado
fifteen addresses during tho day, beginning
with a thirty-minute speech at Elmlra, at
0 a. m. Tho other places at which he spoke
were: Coming, Bath, Coshocton, Wayland,
Livonia, Avod, Spencorport, Drockport,
Holly, Albion, Medina, Middtoport, Lock
port and Niagara Falls. Tho attendanco
at most of tho day meetings was good anl
at some ot them qulto large. The audiences
could not bo said to be enthusiastic as n
rule, but everywhere tho democratlo presi
dential candlduta was accorded most care
ful attention and respectful treatment.
During his state tour Mr, Dryan hus spoken
at slxty-llvo points aad has quite thor
oughly traversed tho central belt of the
state from east to west. Ho left this city
tonight at 12 o'clock for Huntington, W.
Va whero ho will begin a ono-day trip
across West Virginia Monday morning.
Tho reception hero was all that Mr.
Bryan could havo desired. A denso crowd
ot people filled tho streets and thero was
an elnborato display of 11 re works from
start to finish. In tho open-air meeting at
Broadway market thu speaker's fftaud was
surroundod with densely packed people, ex
tending probably 200 to 300 feet In every
direction. Mr. Bryan was In One voice
and the peoplo were attentive, so that al
most all of them heard all that ho had o
say. In this speech he gave especial at
tention to the citizens of foreign birth,
wring tnat to change our form of govern
menti as wo wero manifesting a tendency
to do In our dealings with the Flllplnoi,
would bo a gross fraud upon thoso who had
como to tho United States. Ho roforred
especially to tho fact that there aro a
number of Pole3 In Buffalo and said that
tho sad history of .Poland should be a
sufficient examplo ,of tho effect of the sub
Jugatica ot an alien race.

taxen to say now i intanu .to vote und in
dolus so have m!nlnternroted my Intention
and havo not hesitated to make political
canital of my Intended vote I will trlvo a
categorical and unmistakable reply. I In
tend to vote for William MoIClnlov and
Theodora Roosovnlt. In giving my voto for
mo contnciates or me republican party l
am satlstled In my own conscience that I
servo the best Interests of the country at
homo and abroad, that I contribute to'tha
maintenance of tho country's material pros
perity and of peaco anil goodwill betweon
tho several classes of Its conulatlon. that I
aid the country In bringing about tho safest
anu most nonorunm solutions or tne com
plex problems which confront It as tho re
sult of tho late war and In retaining for
thu country itself tho exalted position
which It holds at urcsent commercially mi.l
diplomatically before other nations of the

expressed us to how I Intend to vote.

ilar to thoso that are now being tucked up
lie anrnn at the mine owners this action
would in Itself probably not end tho strike.
I He waa asked If all the companies wero to
' post such notices what his next step would
bo. At Urst he hesitated and then replied?
I "Under tho condltion3 laid down by tho
I Scranton miners' convention thero could bo
; no partial resumption of work."
Whon It was suggested that nis rcpiy am
not aaswer tho question he said:
"Well, all I wilt say Is that If nil the
companies post notices It would clear up
matters ccrslderably. It would remove some
of tho obstacles that now present them
selves." This la tho flrst public statement that
Mr. Mitchell has made bearing on a aottlc
mout of the contest since the operators at
Scranton took their decided stand that the
reduction of powder prlco must be consid
ered In figuring out the advanco In wages.
Notices similar to those already posted
by Individual operators In this region wero
Issued today by three more companies.
They wero J. S. Wentz & Co., operating
Sllvcrbrook colliery; Dodson & Co., owners
of mines at Morea and Beaver Brook, and
the Milliard Coal company, which operates
collieries at Buck Mountnln and New Bos
ton, In Schuylkill county. Tyler McTurit,
who operate a washery at Audenreld, em
ploying about llfty men, have posted a no
tice giving employes an Increase in wages
of 10 per cent.
Tho only largo Individual operators In
this region who havo cot posted what Is
knovn as the socoad notice nro Coxo Bros.,
O. B. Markle & Co. end the Lehigh &
Wllkesbarro Coal company. Thero s
much Interest manifested here as to what
steps. It any, the Markle Arm will take.
This Arm Is tho only ono In this region
which has not consented to glvo Its em
ployes un Increase of any sort. The mem
burs ot tho Arm malntala a strict silence.
Mr. Mitchell Is said to bo contemplating
a trip to Scranton next week, but for what
purpose Is not known. Nothing has been
said hero about another convention and
thero Is nn probability ot a conference of

In which ho condemned reports published In
some newspapers that the strikers had deso
crated a cemetery in Hozleton. Ho said he

strlkors.
Continuing, he said: "I wish also to deny
the absurd statements that havo appeared
In tho columns ot some ot the metropolitan
papers that wo contemplate beginning a na
tional strike ot coal miners on April 1. The
relations betweon tho bituminous coal op
erators and our organization aro entirely
harmonious and our agreements aro made
for one year. Wo hopo that tbo anthracite
operators and miners will also adopt this
humane and progressive method of adjust
