WATKRTOWN, S. D.. Sept. 13. The spe
cial train bearing the Roosevelt party
stopped for a brief tlmo this forenoon at
Csstlewood, whero Governor Roosevelt ad
dressed a largo crowd from tho rear plat
form. At Watertown, tho next stop, a
considerable demonstration hnd been ar
ranged. This small town Is situated In Cod
dlngton county, which enjoys tho reputa
tion of having sent moro men to tho Span
ish war, relatively to tho population, than
any other county In tho United States. In
tho court house square the first shaft that
has been raised in this country to the mem
ory of thoto who died In Cuba and the
Philippines has been erected. Tho meeting
was In tho open air and Governor Roosevelt
was followed by Governor Shaw of Iowa,
Senator Nelson and Colonel Leo Stover.
After a stop of an hour tho train proceeded
on Its way.
In his speech hero Governor Roosevelt
said In part:
I would like to discuss not only the serl
ous questions of free silver, of tho trusts,
of tho tariff, of tho orderly preservation of
law and thu upholding of the ag, but 1
woulil like lo discuss even the opera bouffe
questions of militarism and riiperlullsm
presented by our opponents. South Dakota
iired to bo straight republican. A number
of men, good men, finally drifted off from
us, lured by false promises and deceived
by false hopes. Keeling they must hold
somebody and something responsible, the
republican party stood before them and
thejUield It responsible.
With an effrontery which It Is dlfllcult to
determine, certain of our democratic friends
huvo the audacity to Bay that they repre
sent the principles of the founders of tho
republican party of long ago. If they had
any feeling or a drop of the blood that
ran Into the veins of the great original
statesman who conducted the country
through tho four years of civil war nnd
then gnvo up his llfo that his country might
live, they could turn with Indignation from
the candidate of democracy who speaks to
those nominating him about the consent of
tho governed as regards the Philippines,
knowing that one of tho chief chances of
his election nnd the absolute triumph of
bis party consists In nullifying the doctrine
In some of the southern states which Lin
coln gave his llfo to free.
I want to sympathize Willi them as a
party In being ashamed of their ancestry
I congratulate ourselves upon the fact that
when we asked for the support of the peo
ple, wo did not have to say that though we
urn republicans now It must be understood
we are not at nil what republicans are, but
we are like what democrats were. We do
say that we aro republicans, that wo are
the heirs of men who fought to a victorious
finish the great civil war. We say we are
the representatives and heirs ot the men
who established a homeseekers' law In the
west; we ure the representatives and the
heirs of the men who passed the tnrlft leg
islation and of the men who stood, und do
now stnnd, for sound money. We form a
parly of coherent principles and now If
tho lenders of our party of iftfio were alive
they would Und us quoting their words und
ncllng up to their principles and rising up
to bid them welcome In our councils.
Our opponents say they are like the old
time democrats; they say thev belong to
the democratic party, but they have none
of Its old principles left. That Is a line con
fession or faith for a parly to make. Mr.
Hrynn having fought on a dellnlte Issue
four years ago and failed, he still keeps
that Issue In the toregroutul and says that
It Is Immediate, lie says with reference to
another Issua that It Is paramount. I shall
not try to enter Into any nice distinction
between what Is immediate and what Is
uaru mount.
IViiunutoly on our lde we stand by all
of our Issues. Lot me Just point coit a
few thlnus that do not re.iomble the Clove,

FORMER B.RYAN MAN SPEAKS
I'ntlirr nf I'opullnt I'nrtj- In South
lluUulu Tell Why lie Is a
Itf ptllillcnu.
RAPID CITY, S. DrTsept. 13 -(Special.)
Hon. H. L. Loucks. called tho "father" of
tho populist party In South Dakota, spoko
lo a very largo audience Tuesday night In
this city from the republican standpoint.
Ho told plainly how he hnd comu to re
nounce his popullstic beliefs and Join the
opposite party. In tho first place, tho
republican party had kept all of Its prom
ises and pledges, whllo both tho populist
nnd democratic parties had failed In prac
tically everything that they hnd promlseJ.
This ouo thing alone hnd changed his
opinions. During tho Inst democratic ad
ministration farm products nnd llvo stock
had decreased 43 per cent In their value.
During the three yenrs of tho McKinley
administration they have Increased U per
cent.
"If, during tho democratic administra
tions, there hnd always been n fall In
prices of farm products, how could I. who
havo been the most honored by the farmers
of any man In the nation, do nnythlng
olso but recommend to tho farmers to stay
with the republicans?"
Tho speaker mentioned a number of tho
dlro calamities that Ilryan prophesied
would befall the nation if McKinley wero
elected. Ho mentioned hard times. Idle
men. the starvation of everyone excepting
the money lenders, the closing of tho pub
lic schools, fall In tho prices of farm pro
duce and live stock, less money, less op
portunity for labor, destitution, bloodshed
and general despair.
"There havo been hard times getting
men enough to take rare of tho great har
vest In the eastern part of the state and
the democrats havo had n hard time
scratching for nn Issue. There are no Idle
men In tho eastern part of the state. Land
has Increased In my part of tho state.
In value, from 300 to 100 per rent. You
people here iu my audience do not look
starved. Aro you all money lend
ers and money changers? In in)
part of the state it has been necessary
to ndd to tho rapacity of tho public
schools. Aro they closing the schools In
the HIjcK Hills? What do sintlstlcs show
about the rnlse In tho price of cattle nnd
sheep? As for less money, there Is f.l per
capita In gold more today than four yenrs
ago. Surely, Ilryan Is a prophet without
honor In his own or any other country. The
democrats have always been trying to get
In on something free--frre trade, free sil
ver and now free nigger."

INSINCERITY OF THE GREAT CAMPAIGN CRY
Tenr Sited Over Aitultinliln While
the .Vearii III llin South I Sj s
teniHllciill.t Deprived nf
III Itlnlit.
The open-nlr meeting nt tho corner of
Thirteenth nnd William streets was enliv
ened by tho presenco of a dozen or moro
democrats who endeavored with poor re
sults to howl down tho speakers. One en
thusiastic citizen who, In the exercise of
his constitutional right to partako of that
which makes noses red, had forgotten that
other persons had rights he was required to
respect, was tnken In charge by tho police
and after that, although his fellows en
deavored to hrenk up tho meeting, It was
possible for tho speakers to make them
selves heard.
The meeting opened with music by a hand
nnd a song by tho quartet, after which R.
W. Richardson introduced Charles Tuttlo,
who spoke briefly, requesting tho voters to
weigh well the promises and tho fulfillment
of tho promises made by the two parties
and to bo guided by reason rather than by
prejudice on election day.
Charles S. Klguttcr dwelt briefly upon
present Issues and showed tho Insincerity
of the democratic pledges of four yearn
ago nnd the f utile tactics that party Is now
pursuing.
The lnBt speaker was Dr. S. Pope, who
came to Omaha from Ponca. O. T. Dr
Pope Is a native of South Carolina and until
1R9.1 ho wns a lending democrat ot that
stnte. In 1S9I ho ran ns an Independent
democratic candidate for governor ngnlnst
Fvans. who wns counted In by stealing 12,
000 votes rnst for Pope. The next yenr Dr.
Popo Joined tho republican party and In
1S0 headed tho "Illy white" delegation
from thnt stnte which was ruled out by tho
national executive committee. Ilecauso of
his political affiliations ho was boycotted
by tho people of his native placo and his
business destroyed, upon which ho removed
to Oklahoma.
Some OrlKlnnl i;ipnnlonlt.
The doctor dovotcd his time to the dis
cussion of tho "paramount Issue" of Mr.
Ilryan. He began by referring to tho first
territorial expansion of tho I'nlted Status,
tho purchase of Louisiana territory, nnd
said that nt that time Jefferson had to face
tho humo accusations ns thnso now brought
against President McKinley. The next
"Imperialist" was Andrew Jackson, who,
when tho Spaniards In Florida wero out
fitting tho Indians to fight tho United States
nnd wero sending them words of encourage
ment, such as somo ot the so-called antl-
Imperlallsts have sent to Agulnnldo, crossed
the line nnd hung two or three of them for
their temerity. The cession of Florida, the
next movement In the way nf expansion,
was a democratic measure ot which thoy
found no fault, and which was accomplished
without the consent of any of tho residents
of tho peninsula. Thu next expansion was
tho annexation of Texas, another demo
cratic measure. This was followed by the
Gadsden purchase and the acquisition of
nddttlonal territory without the consent of
the poople residing In that territory. As
democratic measures the opposition hnd no
complaint to make, but when thu repub
lican party reached out to ncquirc terri
tory It wns unconstitutional. The sposker
then read portions of the constitution show
ing that the rlcht to make treaties carried
with It tho right to acquire territory and
that once acquired the territory was sub
ject to the laws passed by congress.
Taking up the cry of government by con
sent ot the eoverned, lie showed how hol
low is the democratic pretense by compar
ing thu condition of tho negro of his na
tive statu with that ot the whites of the
same commonwealth. He paid his respects
to Senator Tillman, who In thu I'nlted
States senate cries over the condition of the
poor Filipino and compares Agulnnldo to
George Washlnctnn, whllo In South Caro
lina ho systematically deprives the negro
of his constitutional rights and docs It to
perpetuate himself In ofllce.
it Is a case of doc in the manger with
the democrats," said the speaker. "Wore
they In power they would do what Is belns
done nnd It would be all right from their
standpoint, but ns they cannot do It thoy
would rnther that It would not bo done nt
all." Taking up the tariff question tho doc

who were not with us In ISM, but nre with

those coming to us ure fur morn numerous
than those deserting us. We have everv
reason for the support of the ticket that
we had In 1S0G nnd new reasons which have
arisen since that time. Tbe republican
party has shown It Is not willing to destroy
trusts. The republican party Is attempting
to Increase the standing nrmy from 2;,0W
to 100.000 . Is there any reason why the
public nt large should favor such nn In
crease? Tho republican party Is trying to
fasten upon the country militarism und
Imperialism. Tho republican party wants
to engraft upon our country n colonial
policy. In U'Jt. they said we could not have
a double standard of money; now they say
we can have a double standard of govern
ment. There Is no reason why you should
vote the republican ticket If vou believe
In the principles of self-government nnd nre
willing thnt the Filipinos should govern
themselves as well its desirous that we
shall govern ourselves.

MINERS ADVISED TO STRIKE

It Is exhausted. Moreover, It would be
folly on our p.trt to make public at this
time any Information upon which nn estij
trate of our financial strength could be
bared."
At the close of last year there were
0.1.131 bonaflde mombers In the mine work
ers' organization. At the convention In
January It wns decided to levy upon each
of these members an assessment of
cents per month, to be placed In the hands
of the national executhe board for use as
a defense fund. Part of this money has
been used In small strikes, but the bulk
of it Is probably available nt this time.
Since Jnnuary of the present year there
has been n very mnterlnl Incrense In the
membership, which of courso carries with
It an Increased defense fund.
Aside from the money tn the hands of the
national executive bonrd local unions In
n number of stntes have accumulated large
sums of money In their treasuries, which
while not nt the command of tho execullvo
olllcers of the organization, will probably
be placed in the strike fund. Contributions
from other trades unions can be counted on
and from these fnrts It enn bo seen that
the minors nro prepared for n long fight
Tomorrow will bo spent In preparations
for such emergencies ns may arise during
the strike. Saturday night President
Mitchell will go to Ilazclton nnd from
there to different points In tho field for
the purpose of holding mass meetings.
ORDER READ AT WILKESBARRE

1'VelliiK.
WILKKSHARRK, Ph.. Sent. 11 -enrlv
nil the local assemblies of Fnlted Mino
Workers held meetings tonight to tako ae
tlon on President Mitchell's strike order.
The statement Issued by Mr. Mitchell was
read by tho secretaries. Iu some of the ns
semblles the rending of It was received with
much enthusiasm, while In others there was
dead silence. The strike order has not been
promulgated In tho Wvomlng district and
every member of the Mine Workers' union
will be expected to quit work on Saturday
night nt the latest. There Is still n big
difference of opinion as to how many miners
will go out In this district. It is hinted by
the operators that nil the miners who are
alllllnted with tho union will quit work, but
not mauy outside of tho organization will
lay down their tools, ns they have pledges
from many men thnt they will continue to
work.
It Is thought, however, that the number
of men who nre willing to continue, in the
employ of the company will not be sutll
clent to opernto tho mines. Some of tho
operators think this may be tho case for a
few days, but after thnt they expect a break
In the ranks of tho Idle men and that there
will bo a flood of applications for work.
The operators report tonight that their
advices from the collieries show that the
output of coal today was a trlllo larger
thnn on Wednesday.
All employes reported for work and all
are expected to report today and Saturday.
At somo of the Delaware & Hudson col
lieries in Plymouth a few men took their
tools out tonight. Their powder was ex
pended nnd they snld ns u strike wus so
near at hand they would not buy u fresh
supply for ono or two days' work.
At PIttston there wus some disturbance
at the Httrnum shaft. The drivers nnd
laborers to the number of 100 had somo
trivial grievances and woulil not go to
work until thoy were settled. A com
promise was agreed upon this ovenlng and
all hands will report for work tomorrow.
The Kingston Coal company, which em
ploys 3.000 men, will suspend operations If
more thnn 40 per cent of tho men quit. The
ofllclula of the Lackawanna company, which
employs more than 10,000 men between
Shlckshinny and Scrauton, say they expect
the majority of their miners will quit and
tliut the mines will he Idle for some time.
The Crescent and Red Asli companies,
which give employment to 1.000, report to
night that less than 3 per rent of their
men are organized nnd that thoy expect to
open their collieries on Monday the same
as usual.
POLITICAL VIEWS OF STRIKE

nt ( IiIchi;o,
CHICAGO, Sept. 13. The anthracite coal
miners' strike, called last night by Pres
ident Mitchell of the United .Miners' asso
ciation, was the subject ot considerable dis
cussion at republican headquarters today.
Senntor Hanna nnd Vice Chairman Payne
held a long ennferenco with tho resident
members of tho advisory committee ns to
tho best steps to take thnt a political color
bo not given the Industrial difficulty in
Pennsylvania At the close ot ihu confer
ence neither Chairman llnnna nor Vice
Chairman Payne made a statement, but Perry
S. Heath, chairman of the press committee,
said:
"Wo aro not yet sufficiently advised ns
to tho situation In Pennsylvania to war
rant any expression of view nud It ts not
a mntter to be talked of without careful
consideration of all the facts."
Mr. Heath was equally reticent when
asked regarding the success of the Crokcr
slnle ot tho New York stnte convention nt
Snrntoga yesterday. "It has been a cat and
dog light in New York for so long," snld
Mr. Heath, "thnt It is pretty well mud
dled."
At democratic headquarters, however,
there wns no disinclination tn tnlk. Secre
tary Walsh was In a happy frame ot mind
over the success of tho Crnker element and
paid that ho was sure tho coal strike would
benefit the Ilryan ticket. "It will aid ns
to demonstrate to the working people that
combinations of capital aro dangerous and
constitute a standing menace to labor. Tho
strike will cause agitation und ugltutlon In
education."
