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-

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

law. Democratic promise was accept
ed iu place of republican fulfillment.
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.

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.

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.
