Oct .-: a. m The strug gle between the revolution and the loyal ists at Lisbon continues today. Advices from 'the Portuguese capital, the authenticity of which can be safely as sumed, are meager.

Practically all of the dispatches from Lisbon la.) Jiight conveyed the Impression the revolutionists were In complete control and tn populace had accepted the republic as an accomplished fact. It Is borne In mind, however, that Just as the monarchy exsrclsed a strict censorship over outgoing dispatches previous to the outbreak of the revolution, the revolu tionists, being In control of the cable and telegraph wires, are now In a position to dictate what of the present situation shall be made known to the outside world.

He said he had met Representa tive Henry A. Shepard, Michael Llnck. H. J. C. Beckemeyer and Charles Luke in the Southern hotel.

United States Senator William r Alden Smith, in his speech, defended the present tariff, declared ..that the dissension In the republican rank would not prevent victory at the poll in the coming election and coupled President Taft and - Theodore Roosevelt as the party, leadera. He said In part: "It has been said the republican party ia vexed with . Internal dissension and torn by factional strife. This can be said, at times, of every great public body,' but our party continues to move among the polit ical forces of our time wtlh strength undiminished and glory undlmmed. "Surely no Internal controversy can draw our forces from the battle line. It Is said that the national house of representatives is threatened, and Michigan, whose people have prospered under republican rule, must not waver in the fight. No vote from here must be diverted even to that brilliant. honest hearted disciple of a false faith, the self-proclaimed free trader. Champ Clark of Missouri, who once said If be had hia way every custom house on our border would be destroyed." 'Some recent elections have given poli ticians alarm. I do not think we have lost a battle which we should have won. In Massachusetts the republicans nominated a democrat for congress and the democrats nominated a wayward republican who was elected. In New York the republicans nom inated a candidate who had dominated his city with a fist of Iron and publicly invited defeat, which was deserved. "In Maine the people sought in vain from our party for a primary law and turned to our opponents in the hope that they might get it. The age of boss Ism Is passed. Intelligent and progressive leadership may still light the way, but they must march with tha procession." - Platform Adopted.
