6 1 y— 11 - FAIRBANKS OPENS CAMPAIGN | Candidate for Vice President Compares Periods of Republican and Democratic Rule. iXia.utiDii II- .«i -1.1 .JEM.-.- . -i« ' otemm wjmmxt-iM Senator Charles W. Fairbanks, of In diana, delivered his first formal speech of the campaign at White River Junc tion, Yt August 29. People from all parts of western New Hampshire were I. resent. The demonstration was ar ranged as a welcome from the people of Windsor county to the Indiana senator, whose father was born within its limits. Chairman Alfred E. Watson, of the state committee, and Lieut. Gov. Z. S. Stanton, at the head of a delegation rep resenting all parts of the state, wel comed Senator Fairbanks to the state. After luncheon in the state building the party was driven to the high school grounds, where hundreds of persons had assembled. At the conclusion of a brief address by Senator Proctor the candidate . for i vice president was pre sented. He was given an enthusiastic reception. Address of Mr. Fairbanks. Following is the address of Senator Fairbanks: We have entered upon a campaign of far-reaching moment. We are to deter mine the policies that shall be in force and the administration which shall be in power for four years to come. The candidates and platforms are before the people. The records of the parties are a part of our familiar history, and we should be able to judge what policies and what administration will best ad vance our welfare. We should con sider the questions before us and deter mine them in the light of the fireside without passion and without preju dice. One of the uppermost questions is: Does the administration of President Roosevelt merit a vote of confidence? This question confronts us at the very threshold of the debate. The president took up the duties of his office at a se rious moment in the history of the re public. He assumed his great respon- SENATOR CHARLES W. FAIRBANKS. sibilities with a due appreciation of their gravity, and gave assurance to his countrymen that he would carry out the policies of his predecessors. The people were familiar with them. They were the policies of the republican par ty. They had brought the country im measurable prosperity, and they nat urally desired their continuance. Record of Twelve Years. Let us see what republican adminis tration and republican policies have ac complished. We may compare demo cratic and republican administrations with profit. Fortunately we have he fore us the records of both parties dur ing the last 12 years. Twelve years ago the country was in the enjoyment of an unusual degree of prosperity. There was work to be had on every hand, and at good wages. The farmer re ceived remunerative prices for the prod ucts of the farm. Benjamin Harrison was then president—one of the ablest men who has held the chief executive's office. The public business was well transacted. The McKinley tariff law was in full operation. In the face of all this the democratic party denounced republican prosperity "as a fraud and robbery of the great majority of the people for the benefit of the few." It was declared to be un constitutional. and the repeal of the Mc- Kinley law was demanded. The peo ple in an unguarded moment in the ex ercise of their sovereign rights, voted out of power the republican adminis istration and expressed their judgment in favor of a repeal of the McKinley Justice.

Hard Times Follow. After the election Gen, Harrison, in submitting bis annual message to congress, directed attention to the pros perity prevailing throughout the coun try. The defeat of the republican par ty and the consequent change in the economic policy of the government started a sharp reaction in the indus trial world. It is impossible to over throw great economic policies without changing industrial and commercial conditions. it could not he done in 1892, and it cannot be successfully ac complished to-day. The four years succeeding Gen. Har rison's defeat will not soon be forgotten. They stand in sharp contrast with the years of republican administration both before and after. They were four years of arrested development, of panic and distress without a parallel in American history. Field, factory and mine suf fered alike. Vast armies of unem ployed marched through the country, hopelessly seeking an opportunity to work, regardless alike of either the number of hours or the rate of wage. To many from foreign shores who have since then sought our hospitality, and to many of the young men of our own country who for the first time will exer cise the highest privilege of an Amer ican freeman, this ma? seem an over drawn picture. There are many of our countrymen who will confirm it with testimony gathered in their own hard experience. Return to Republican Rule. In 18!><; the American people resolved to return to republican administration and to republican policies. We came into power pledged to overthrow the democratic tariff law and to enact in lieu of it a genuine protective measure. President McKinley, realizing full well the public needs, convened congress as speedily as possible after his inaugura tion to carry out our pledge. Months were spent in an exhaustive considera tion of the entire subject, and indue time we pui upon the statute books the Dingiey law. The republican admin istration and this measure gave con fidence to the country. Fires were started in the great industrial centers. A profitable market was created for the products of the farms of Vermont. New Hampshire and elsewhere. Pros perity returned and spread her bless ings among all sections and all peoples within the ample limits of the republic. Three years ago our great and beloved leader in the national contests of 189*) and 1900 fell at his post of duty. His successor ha? administered our national affairs since then with conspicuous abil ity. He has been an earnest student of the country's needs. He has been con scientious and untiring in the discharge of his great responsibilities. He hai been inspired by but one purpose, an 4 that has been to do well the work com mitted to his hands. Roosevelt Has Succeeded. Judged by any test we may apply, the administration of President Roose velt has been eminently successful. The last three years have been years of exceptional prosperity. Business has been active in the market-places. In dustry has flourished, ard the farmer has prospered in an unusual degree. Prosperity has not. been confined to limited areas, but has extended through out the country. It has not been re stricted to a few, but has been enjoyed by the many. Domestic trade has ex panded to proportions never before at tained. and our exports have reached the highest figures in ouv history. In short, the last, three ye?rs have been years of commercial growth, of domes tic peace and of expanding power. As in 1892, the democratic party now denounces "protection as a robbery of the many to enhance the few," and pledges itself to overthrow the Dingley law through a revision and reduction of the tariff. What will be the result of such a policy? We will find a most conclusive answer in the four years of the last democratic administration. Let the American people take the dem ocratic platform and the record of the last democratic administration in one hand and the republican platform and the record of the republican adminis tration during the last three years in 1 the other, and pronounce their judg | ment.

Wants His Successor Ousted—Clergy. man and Two Other Residents of Cripple Creek jailed on a Charge of Conspiracy. Cripple Creek, Col., Aug. 31.—The ; first of the promised suits by officers of Teller county who were deprived of their offices was filed in the district court yesterday. Henry M. Robertson, former sheriff, petitions the court to oust Edward Bell from the office of sheriff and ass $5,000 damages against him for usurping the office. In the complaint Robertson recites the events that occurred on June C last, when he was compelled to resign. Soon after the Independence explo sion, he declares, he was induced to enter Armory hall, where a large number of mine owners were congre gated. The doors were immediately locked and a guard placed at them. Then he was informed that unless he resigned | as sheriff he would be killed. He De i murred, and a rope with a noose was | shown him and he was informed that unless he resigned Quickly the doors of the hall would be opened and the mob permitted to enter and lynch him. He resigned in order to save his life. Information was flled yesterday be fore District Judge Lewis charging Rev. T. S. Leland, L. A. Jenks and Ar thur Parker with a conspiracy to mur der Sheriff Bell and Deputy Sheriff Underwood. These cases are based on the shooting from Mr. Inland's house on Sunday night when Sheriff Bell demanded admittance. Bail was fixed at $2,500 and the arrested men aro still in jail. E. S. Holden, ex-secretary of Engi neers' union No. 75, has been brutally beaten by four masked men while on his way to the Vindicator mine where he works. Ho was opposed to the strike in f this district and became identified with the non-union men. taking out a mine owners' card last December. A SERIES OF MURDERS. ' A Connecticut Farmer Is Alleged to Have Killed Four People—He is Ar rested. Colchester, Conn., Aug. 31. —That Gershon B. .Marx, now held in the Norwich county jail, is the perpetrator of a series of cold blooded murders probably without precedent in the his tory of Connecticut, is the belief of the state officials who yesterday be gan a search for bodies on the Marx farm. Four murders and an attempt to poison another man can, it is be lieved by these officials, be traced to Marx. The bodies of two of Marx's victims. Joe Pavol and Joe Jalm, have been found. Marx is awaiting trial charged with the murder of Pavol, his wife be ing held as a witness for the state. The two bodies for which the search was begun Tuesday are those of an 18-year-old boy and a Hebrew ped dler. The boy, who was known as Harry arrived in New York from Russia three years ago and came here to work for Marx. He worked on the farm for about six mon'hs and then suddenly disappeared. The Hebrew peddler went to the Marx home one evening about two years ago and he has not been seen alive since, so far as known. A Polander known as "Joe" on Tuesday made a statement to Sheriff Jackson in which he accused Marx of attempting to end his life with poison ed whisky. The motive for the crime can only be traced to an insane desire on the part of Marx to escape paying money to persons to whom he was indebted. Marx always slept with his hired man, his wife and four children sleep ing in an adjoining room. It is said that he drugged his victims when they pressed him for their wages, and then crushed their heads with an ax. Riot and Murder. Pittsburg, Aug. 31.—The crusade carried on by the Allegheny County Sabbath Observance association for the past throe weeks to enforce the blue laws of 1794 resulted in riot and murder in Allegheny last night. The man who was killed was Harry D. Knox, driver of an ice wagon. He was shot by P. T. Gamble, a detective em ployed by the association, who was at tacked by a mob after he (Gamble) had had a hearing in an alderman's office on a charge of perjury. Dedicated a Soldier#' Monument. Gainesville, Va., Aug. 31. —Troops of the United States army, Gen. Cor bin in command, and Gen. Bell, com manding .the Seventh cavalry, partici pated in the dedication of a monu ment to the memory of the Confeder ate dead of the first battle of Bull Run at Grovoton yesterday. The principal address was delivered by GOT. Montague, of Virginia. Gen. Corbin spoke briefly. Murdered Hia Son. Pittsburg, Aug. 31. —Crazed by the effects of liquor, Frank Dlebold, a German, aged 50 years, residing at Heidelberg, a mining town near here, murdered his 11-year-old son yester day with a butcher knife while the child was sleeping. Ex-Sultan Murad V. Dies. Constantinople, Aug. 31.—Ex-Sultan Murad V. died Monday of diabetes. Murad V.was born in 1840 and as cer.ded the throne after the murder of the Sultan Abdul Aziz in May, 187 G. In July of that year Murad was placed tinier the regency of his brother, the present sultan, Abdul Hatnid 11., anft on August 31 he was dethroned. Tills act was performed on the ground that he was insane. The real facts in the case, however, will probably never be known, but it has been claimed that Murad was a good deal more sane than his brother.
