They strike for shorter hours, and I hope they will get them. They want to live on tho fat of the land, but I don't believe they want to eat 1' as they did under the last administration - with the forks of tho road.

(Loud laughter and prolonged npplauso.) Jm'T my part I claim that the only Issue there is In this campaign worthy of any man's attention Is the Ihsuo of whether we shall hold onto tho forlunatn ctilidl tlins that now surround and envelop tho American people or give up our time i hecks and go back to the snip tickets tRiiin. (Laughter and applause.) And all these other things they call Issues. 1 don't rail them Issues at all; I call them nnlsi s. And I want to talk to you for a few min utes about some of tho noises I have heard. expect you have heard some of tho same aolses. Iliiuiilxm of .Militarism. "First of nil, they say that this country Is Koine to bo swamped by militarism. I heard Oovernor lloosevelt made a calcula lion today, by which he demonstrated that the standing army of the United States now amounts to clglity-slx-hucdn'di.hs of a man, with a corresponding fraction of a gun. to every 1,000 of the population of tho United States less by half than It was when Thomas Jefferson uttered his historic protest against a standing army In tho United States. "Now, I havo read tho history of tho nlteil States army nud I want to toll you something, especially the young man and the young woman who do me the honor to listen to me now. There Is not a page In tho history of tho United Stnies that records an act of hostility by tho Amer lean army, either against tho liberties or tho welfare of the American people. (Loud applause and cries of "(Jood.") Tho only urmy that this country has to fear Is Ooxey's army. (Cries of "That's so.") strictly populist Institution. 1 know that Is so because I heard Oovernor Dietrich say so up hero at Fremont this after noon (Laughter and applause.) "Mr Ilryan said the other day at To peka when ho was taking on one of the nominations I don't rememner now which one It was--that his heart bled every time ho thought of the precious lives our lolillcrs wore losing and the blood they were shedding in tho Philippine Islands Well, If ho feels that way about It. why, In nod's name, doesn't he stop giving aid mid comfort to tho armed enemies of tho United States? (Loud and prolonged ap pluuse.) "Only it Iti-milnr." "Tho othor day, clown In Indiana, thoy woro erecting a monument to thn memory of General l-aw ton bravest of tho brnvo I know tho old cavalryman before the Span lsh war came on and I learned to love that simple old soldier and comrade of tho Crand Army of tho Republic, who for forty years obeyed tho orders of this government, with out oven receiving money enough to pro vldu for the ordinary expenses of the educa tton of his children. And down at the dedication of that monument Mr. Ilryan of Nebraska happened aloug and they Invited him In to participate In the exerclsos, and as I rcltd hli colorless remarks on that occasion I recalled some things about Gen eral Lawton. I reculled bis valor In the Cuban campaign, I recalled the occasion when he went with tho presidential party to Atlanta, Ga., and everybody watited to eo him and hear him speak, but the poor old toldler could not speak very much and when at last wo got him to the tall end of the car ho stood trembling upon his feet, and could only say. 'I um not an orator, I am a soldier; I am not a hero, I am a regular' and then they sent him to the I'hlllpplno Islands, where for fifteen months he fought under tho Hag of the United States which never did stand and never can sttnd for anything except tho liberties of the human race. (Loud applause.) tend (.e-iic-riil 1, union' Letter. "Five days before ho died he wroto a letter to John B.irrctt, lately our minister to Slam, which tho Omaha World-Herald falsely says Is a forgery, as published, al though the loiter is authenticated and can Le authenticated In tho hand-writing of General Lawton, and I want to rend that letter to ou (taking tho letter from his pocket). " '! would to God that the whole truth of this Philippine situation could bo known to everyone in America ni I know It. If tho rial history, Inspiration and condi tions of this Insurrection and the Inllu ences, local und external, that now en courage) tho enemy, as well as tho actual possibilities of these Islands and people and their relations to this great east could bo understood nt home, wo would hear no moro talk of shooting a government Into tho Filipinos or of hauling down our Hag In tho Philippines. If the so-called autl- Imperlt lists would honestly ascertain tho truth on the ground nud not lu distant America they, whom I bollcve to be hon est men but misinformed, would bo con vinced of the error of their statements and conclusions nnd of the unfortunate ef fect of their publications here. If I am shot by it Filipino bullet It might as well como from one of my own men. because I know of observations conilrraed by rap- turod prisoners that the continuance of tho fighting Is chiefly duo to tho reports thit aro scut out from America.' 'I happened to bo present at the funeral of General Lawton and It was the grand est funeral I ever attended. Tho most touching scene was tho campaign horse of tho old cavalryman, bridled and riderless, standing by the open gravo." Ilorr Wnr Incident. The speaker referred to tho action of tho president In the matter of the Anglo- Doer war, saying that tho United Stales was the only nation to take advantage of the provisions of The Hague treaty to at tempt to stop tho war. Ho told of how tho Iloer euvoys fell Into the hands of tho democrats at Washington and of a state ment by tho treasurer of the relief fund showing that all of the money raised had been expended In high living with tho ex- opt Ion of $14, which was to be sent to tho widows nnd or:lians. The speaker here was Interrupted by the arrival of Governor Shaw of Iowa, who was given an ovation as he reached tho stare. Heforrlng to tho trusts tho speaker called attention to the fact that every law on 1 the federal statute books against trusts I was enacted by a republican congress and i It Is not an Issue that in 1S92 the people wero prosperous and every man was able to secure employment. It Is not an Issue that the democrats triumphed that year, that we had bad luck during the next four years nud that durlug that period more than 1,000,000 men found themselves ou' of employment. With the so-called paramount Issue the speaker dealt at considerable length in sentences replete with keen epigram and a quaint and touching humor. He declared that there Is too much partisanship and not enough statesmanship and patriotism He spoke of the era of patriotism awak ened oy the Spanish persecution of Cub and tho unanimity with which men of nil parties In congress voted the president $50,000,000 to Inaugurate the Spanish war, and recalled how, when war was declared, an army of over 260,000 was authorized. The call went out and tho people re sponded. They came from all sections, republicans and democrats, native and foreign born, sons of the cltle3 and sons of the plains, from the north nnd from the south. It was a splendid army, an army of American boys, nnd there was not one of them whose heart did not burn to show the patriotism In his soul and the Iron In his blood, with the result that Spain was whipped to a standstill. "All, there was never anything like that seen on this earth before," said Governor Shaw, Impressively, "and there will never bo anything like that seen again on this earth until we hnve another wnr." President McKlnley would not be out done by the people and ho commissioned many officers who did not agrno with him In politics. II was an epoch of patriotism, of statesmanship. 11 r ti it I'meircel Trent).
