"POLITICS THROUGHOUT TEE STATE AHB NATION
Ibe struggle lor the control of the next
Congress is the chief topic of interest at the
Capital. The Republican campaign is well
under way, but the Democrats are short of
lunds. Ther are sending out great quan
tities of campaign literature to supply the
deficiency. The claim is made that the
South will be solid, but the Farmers' Alli
ance may spoil this.
rFBOM A ETATF COEEESPOJTDEXT. 1
"Washington, October 3. The atmos
phere ot Washington is essentially political,
nnd as soon as one Congress cues, specula
tion turns at once upon the composition of
the next. So it is that conversation in hotel
.lobbies is novr directed to the approaching
4all elections and the probable fate of the
prominent leaders on both sides.
In this connection the effect of the at
tempt to pass the election bill, otherwise
tcown as the "force bill," is being freely
disensscd. Some of the Southern Demo
crats claim tnat it will destroy the last rem
nants of the Republican party still existing
in the South.
Llaim of an Alabama Democrat.
Representative "Wheeler, of Alabama,
Eaid to-day that he believed there would be
no Southern Republican elected to the next
CoDgress, and that the South would send a
lid Democratic delegation to "Washing
ton. He exDects to gam two members in
Tennessee, one in Ketucky, two in Mary
land and one in Louisiana.
If Mr. Coleman, the only present Repub
lican from Louisiana, is beaten for re-election,
it will be for exactly the opposite
reason to that assigned by Mr. "Wheeler.
Mr. Coleman was one of the two Sonthern
Republicans who voted against the election
bill, and this action of his has greatly dis
pleased a section of his constituents, so
much so in fact that they did their best to
deleat his renomination. His majority is
not so great as to relieve him of any anx
iety, and if these men vote against him be
cause he did not go with his party on the
force bill they will be able to de.'eat him.
Outlook In tlm 01 il Dominion.
The Democrats in Virginia are calculat
ing upon carrying every district in the
State, with the possible exception of that
one now represented by Mr. Bowden. The
two Republican candidates in that district
may, however, enable a Democrat to slip in
and represent what under ordinary circum
stances is the most reliably Republican dis
trict in the State. In the Petersburg dis
trict Mr. Langston will again be a candi
date, and it is expected that Mr. Mahone
will do all in his power to defeat him.
The Democratic Campaign Committee is
sending out about as many documents as if
it wre a Presidental year. They are doing
little or no other work, and they are taxed
to the utmost to seenre and send out all the
documents that are demanded. They were
not prepared tor such demand 38 has been
made upon them.
The indication from the character of the
requests they receive for literature from all
parts of the country shows that the interest
jr. the tariff question is greater than it has
ever been before, but there are other ques
tions aUo uhich are interesting to the pub
lic A threat Demand for T.ltpratnre,
From all parts of the country cames the
demand for the leading speeches on the
tarifi, and hundreds of thousands of docu
ments have been sent out, and from one sec
tion and another are heavy demands for lit
erature on silver, the election bill and land
questions. Besides what the Campaign Com
mittee is doing the Tarifi Reiorm League is
eeuding out an immense amount of litera
ture. As far as the Democrats are concernel
literature is all they have to give. They
cay they have no money at all and are con
ducting a purely cducatioual campaign.
The delay of final action on the tariff bill
prevented the Democratic campaign book
from being cot out on time. It could Dot be
isiued until the tariff fight was over in Con
gress, and now it is pretty late to be of gen
eral use in the campaign.
It has been nrepared by young Carlisle,
gon of the Senator, and is regarded as one
of the finest books of the sort ever got np.
It will probably be issued the first of next
week.

Philadelphia, October 3. A meeting
of the Executive Committee of the Lincoln
Independent Republicans was held to-day.
Letters were read from prominent Repub
licans Irom different parts of the State, and
also from a number in the city, requesting
intormation in regard to the organizing of
wards. The following resolution was
adopted:
That the Lincoln Independent Republican
Committee unite with the Independent Repub
licans who favor the election of Pattison for
the purpose of active work in organizing the
different wards of the city.
A conference meeting was held this after
noon between a committee of the Lincoln
Republicans and a sub-committee ot the In
dependent Republican State Committee.
Much reliable information was received in
reference to ;the work that is being done by
the machine in different parts of the State
tending to the corruption of voters and per
petration of fraud on election day.
Appei.l to the Clcrgr.
This evening Justus C. Strawbridge,
Chairman of the Lincoln Independent Re
publicans, issued the following address to
the clergymen of the State:
It is unusual to call upon clergymen for
active interest in a political campaign, since
the nature of tneir profession is supposed to
separate them from any positive or conspicious
attitnde in such affairs. Under ordinarv cir
cumstances, doubtless, it is wise and right that
ennisters should maintain this neutral posi
tion, but when an occasion arises which pre
sents the gravest of moral issues affecting the
moral welfare of the State, and which, indeed,
involves the moral intecnty of all public life,
then it would seem necessary that ministers of
the cospel should exert a legitimate influence
to maintain the plain standards of right and
wrong in public an airs.
It la evident that the strongest intrench
mentof existing political evils is the avers:on
of our best people to activity in politcs. llut it
Is also manifest that the health of free institu
tions is dependent upon the conscientious
service of all good citizeus, and that the aliena
tion of such men from public duty provides
precisely those conditions under which dema
gogues and public plunderers flourish. The
evil cannot be removed unless good men accept
generally a personal responsibility and their
share of labor in the necessary reforms. In
Pennsylvania to-day the supreme influence of
the political machine and of the man who con
trols it. is the best evidence of the political de
cay into which the State has fallen; it furnishes
also the strongest proof of our need for a great
moral awakening.
Hot n Tuny Issue.
The question now at issue is not one of party,
but of vital principle: it is not a question of
the triumph of this party or of that, but of the
maintenance of any moral principle In. public
affairs of a standard of right and wrong In the
official acts of public men. A prominent poli
tician has recently announced that success is
the only law governing political action, and
that not only the Golden Rnle, but the Ten
-Commandments, are henceforth to be excluded
from its sphere,
Surely we have here a question of life and
death. All to whom this letter Is addressed
agree in the belief that "righteousness exalteth
a nation," and that the continued violation of
universal moral law will bring death not only
to the individnal, but to the people. It is the
admitted function of tbe Unristian minister to
labor for the universal dominion of righteous
ness in the world, and in virtue of profession
he asserts that all human conduct must either
be conformable to divine law or to the law of
evil.
The application is obvious. The Republican
platform indorses the official character of
Matthew S. Quay, tbe most powerful politician
in this State, and calls upon the people to
ratify this ludorsoinent at tbe polls by electing
the candidate imposed by him upon the con
vention. Where Mr. Delamalcr Stands.
This candidate stands on this platform and
there is evidence that two years ago Quay con
templated bis nomination. Matthew S. Quay
is all powerful in the politics of Pennsylvania,
and he is known to be a corruptionist of the
most unscrupulous kind. He is charged with
being twice an embezzler ot State funds, and
be has long remained silent under these
charges. To vote for the Republican candidate
for Governor under such circumstances is, in
our opinion, to assent to tbe political abuses
existing in the State, to indorse the character
of Matthew S. Quay, and to rivet the chains of
political serfdom more strongly upon our citi
zens. We have, however, a safe and honorable al
ternative in the opposing candidate, a man of
integrity and character. We, therefore, re
spectfully ask your vote, and such reasonable
influence as 30U may be willing to exert in
favor of the election of Robert E. Pattison,
whoso past record as Governor entitles him to
the full confidence of our people, and whose
election will be a rebuke to present evils, and
mil aid in bringing about needed reforms.

BT DtrSLAP'S CABLE COMPAWT.l
Pabis, October 3. The announcement
that General Boulanger is nbout to resume
his travels and that he will winter in Malta,
makes certain disclosures in the latest
chapter of the "Coulisses Du Boulangisme"
especially interesting. In dwelling on the
Geueral's wanderings M. Mermeix charges
him with the grossest extravagance and
gives details of his personal budget. From
these it is learned that his private expendi
tures amounted to 10,000 francs (2,000) a
month, while double that amount was pain
out for public purposes.
In further proot of his assertions M.
Mermeix cites the fact that General Boulan
ger's bill for a fortnight at the Hotel Mir
gelle, Brussels, was 22,000 irancs (4,400),
and that when be went to London he en
gaged rooms at the Hotel Bristol, one of the
most expensive and aristocratic hostelries in
the English metropolis.
For these he agreed to pay 8 (40) a
day, and although he was given the best
suite, on being shown the apartments by the
manager, he seemed greatly displeased at
what he considered the mediocre character
of the furniture and asked: "Have you
nothing better than that?"

TBT DraLAF'S CABLE COMPANY.
LojfDOtf, October 3. The Times in a
leader on the McKinley tariff bill, says:
Tbe blow aimed at British indnstry by tbe
McKinley tariff bill is an entirely unprovoked
act of unfriendliness which must bo recog
nized as such. We shall not retaliate, for we
must do nothing to aggravate the evil that
presses heavily on the working classes. The
operation of tbe economic laws will in tbe end
force us to take a larger share- of our imports
from other markets and less from the States,
but we sball not attempt to hasten the
resnlt by legislation. It is necessary, however,
to record facts. Tho McKinley tariff bill is a
demonstration of hostility azalnst this country
hardly less decided than the Berlin and Milan
decrees of Napoleon. No reason can be as
signed for it except the desire by the politicians
in power to inflict injury on British interests.
The pretext alleged by Mr. Sepew that the
tariff bill was passed merely to retaliate for the
exclusion. of American live slock from British
porta on suspicion of disease, does not bear the
test of tho most cursory examination.

Excitement Caused by New Evidence In the

By Associated Press.
Dublin, October 3. The hearing In the
case of the Government against Messrs. Dil
lon and O'Brien and the other Nationalists
who were arrested on the charge of,conspira
cy was continued in the magistrate's court
at Tipperary to-day. Aquestion arose as to
the time the trials would occupy and Mr.
Ronan, the prosecutor for the Crown, de
clared that he was entirely ignorant
of the time it would take to
present the case for the Government
or for the accused to make their defense.
Mr. Healy, of connsel tor the defendants,
said he was in mortal fear lest the trials
would last for sis months. Mr. Healy's
remarks .elicited the laughter of those pres
ent at'the hearing.
Much excitement was occasioned in the
courtroom by tbe evidence of one of the
witnesses, a policeman, who testified that
he followed several ot the defendants into
the vestry of the Catholic Church and tried
to overhear what was said there by them.
This testimony aroused the indignation of
counsel for the defendants, and he de
manded to know if the penal days had re
turned when the sanctity of the confessional
could be invaded. The courtroom became
a babel of cries, and the confusion was so
great that it was impossible to go on with
the proceedings. The court was, therefore,
declared adjourned for half an hour.
When the court reopened the policeman
witness was cross-examined by Mr. Har
rington, who called the witness a "shadow."
The magistrate called upon Mr. Harrington
to withdraw the expression. Mr. Harring
ton refused to do so and was ordered to leave
the case. An uproar ensued, Messrs.
O'Brien and Dillon commenting freely
upon the manner in which the case was con
ducted. Finally another half hour ad
journment was ordered. During the ad
journment Mr. Harrington's clients decided
to defend themselves. When the proceed
ings were resumed Mr. Dillon had just be
gun to address the bench when a cheer was
raised for Mr. Harrington. This so exas
perated the magistrate that he ordered the
court cleared, and the proceedings were ad
journed abruptly amid the greatest con
fusion. A large body of policemen were
massed outside the court. There was no
rioting.

SPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH.
New York, October 3. Philippe d'Or
leans, Comte de Paris and by "divine right"
King of France, arrived in New York City
to-day on .the White Star steamer Germanic.
In accordance with instructions from Wash
ington, Collector Erhardt, accompanied by
General Obeirne, welcomed the royal visitor
to America in behalf of the Government.
Colonel Coppiuger, representing General
Schofield, gave greeting for the army, and a
number of other soldiers received the Count
on their personal account and in the name
of the Army of the Potomac.
These other soldiers were General -sDaniel
Bntterfield, General Fitz-John Porter, Gen
eral E. D. Keys, General H. W. Slocum,
General O. O. Howard, General W. B.
Franklin, General John G. Park and
Colonel John F. Nicholson, of the Loyal
Legion, of Philadelphia. General Daniel
E. Sickles and General John Newton were
to have joined in receiving the Count, but
they could not get away,
the reason for it.
That the man who is called King Phil
ippe VI1X by thousands, who is the
head of the royal Bourbon house and would
be monarch of France to-day or next year
if the Rovalists could overturn the existing
French Government, should be welcomed
to tbe shores of tbe Republic of the United
States by soldiers' who fought for this Re
public is an incident which may be ex
plained by the simple statement that,
though a claimant to a throne and a Roy
alist, he fought on the battlefields at the
late war for the "Union.
He was then 23 years old, "and together
with his brother, the Due de Chartres, and
their uncle, the Prince de Joinville, served
under General McClellan for a year with
out pay. They came to this country solely
for that purnose, and when the term for
which thev had enlisted was over they re
turned to Europe.
The Count had the rank of Captain and
was engaged from August, 1861, for one
year in the active fighting ot the Army of
the Potomac. He showed his bravery in
many battles and won a high reputation for
intelligence and courtesy. The struggle fin
ished, he wrote the critical review known
as "History of the Civil War." It is con
sidered an accurate and scholarly work..
ms claims to the throne.
Since' A850 ho-ias been regarded as the-
legitimate uouroou neir to tne crown. An
him are mingled the claims of the two Bour
bon lines that have run separate and par
allel since the death in 1610 of that Louis,
snrnamed the First, son of Henry the Great,
fourth of that name and first of the house of
Bourbon to reign in France. He is the
grandson of Louis Philippe, who was com
pelled to give up the throne in 1848, and
that King's death in 1850 made the Comte
de Paris the heir apparent.
Various efforts have been made to give
him the French crown, but they have never
approached very near to success. One of
his daughters married ttielxing ot Portugal,
but the alliance has not been a strong factor
in the Count's operations. His eldest son,
the present Due d'Orleans, tried to arouse
royal enthusiasm last winter by claiming
that his family were unjustly banished from
France, that he was"a citizen of the Govern-
ment, and thereby justified in his desire to
enter the country and to serve in the army.
Not only was a place as soldier denied
him, but he was arrested and sentenced to
imorisonment. President Carnnt rjardoned
him on condition that he leave France. The
young man did so at once. The, Comte de
Paris knew nothing of his son's e'scapade at
the time it took place, for he was then in
Cuba. When he returned to England,
where he passed most of his exile, he said
little about it.
NOTHING ABOUT BOULANGER.
The Count refused to-day to say anything
about Boulanger or any other phase of
French politics, and added that his visit to
this country was simply to see old lriends
and visit some of the most noted battle
fields. Those accompaning the Comte de
Paris on his visit to this country are the fol
lowing, their names being given as they ap
peared on the list of the Germanic: H. R.
H. tbe Due d'Orleans and valet, the Due
d'Uzes nnd valet, the Marquis deLasteyrie,
the Comte de Hauisonville and valet, Capt
ain Morhain and Dr. Recamicr.
Early in the morning Marshall MacMahon,
who fought with the Count nnder General
McClellan and Colonel Coppinger went out
from quarantine in a revenue cutter and
boarded the-Gernianie. It is 28 years since
Marshall MacMahon saw the Count, but tbe
royal Frenchman recognized him at once,
and cordially said that he was glad to see
him. Colonel Coppinger was introduced,
and in behalf of General Schofield, com
manding the army, welcomed him to Amer
ica. ,
Another party of the friends of the Count
went down in the revenue cutter Chandler
and boarded the Germanic just this side of
Staten Island. The Comte de Paris stood
with his son, tbe Due d'Orleans, at the head
of the stairway in the cabin surrounded by
his party, General MacMahon and Colonel
Coppinger.
FORMALLY -WELCOMED.
General Bntterfield bowed to the Count,
who recognized him at once, since they have
met frequently in Europe. The Count said
to General Bntterfield: "I am glad to see
you, and it is extremely kind to bring so
many of my old soldier friends to meet me."
General Bntterfield then presented Colonel
Erhardt, who said, "I am instructed by tbe
President, on behalf of the Government, to
welcome you to these shores and extend yon
every courtesy."
The Comte de Pans bowed and replied:
"I thank you and I feel under very great
obligations to you for your kindness and for
your courtesy."
General introductions followed. To Fitz
john Porter he said: "I am excessively
glad to find you restored to your original
position." The Count was particularly at
tentive to General Keyes, who had met him
abroad, and had also been presented to the
Count's daughter, the-Queen of Portugal.
When the steamer was fastened in the
dock at Pier 45 the Comte de Paris became
Interested in the condition of thevaletof the
Due d'Orleans. This servant, Karl Hans,
bad been stricken with peritonitis soon
after the vovage had begun, and Dr. Re
camier and tbe ship's surgeon thought there
was very little hope of savinghis Jife. The
Comte de Paris inquired about some- hospi
tal to which the sick man might be sent,
and very loon after the Germanic was
moored an ambulance was sent for and the
unfortunate valet Traa' removed to St. Yin-

watched the transfer.
' ONE OF THE INCIDENTS.
The royal party did not leave the Ger
manic until some time after she bad reached
her dock. It had been intended that the
Chandler should take the visitors and their
escorts to the foot of West Twenty-second
street, and the carriages which had been
waiting there had to be summoned to Pier
45. During the delay an aged lady had
come on board the steamer inrinirincr for the
Count. Hcreceived her at the head of the
stairs in the main cabin. She was rather
tall, good looking and somewhat agitated.
She carried in her hands some flowers and
addressing the Count and his son in French,
explained that she was the Vicomtcsse Mon
tarcole. She bowed almost to the level of
the deck and the Count bowed almost equally
low in return. She tried to kiss his
hand, but he gallantly refused to let her.
Then she handed to him a bunch
of fleur de lis, tied with white ribbonin
scribed with the words "Montjoie Saint
Denis," an old Bourbon battle cry.and also
the words "Vive Le Roi." The Count
thanked her with impressive politeness.
Then the Viscomtesse turned to the "Due
D'Orleans and gave him a bouquet of white
roses tied with a similar ribbon of the white
,of the Bourbon hue and marked with the
same inscription.
She told tbe Count that when she was a
little girl in Paris she had seen him, but so
many years had separated the little girl
that was from the old lady that is that she
siid she doubted whether he would remem
ber her. The Count protested against her
alluding to herself as an old lady; and in
sisted that he remembered her well.
THEY HAVE TWENTY BOOMS.
The visitors nnd'their escorts arrived at
the Windsor Hotel a little after 2 o'clock
and took possession of 20 rooms on the first
floor fronting on Fifth avenue and Fourth
street. Fifteen of the rooms are bedcham
bers and the others are a suite of parlors
and a dining room. At 3 o'clock the gen
tlemen who had welcomed the Count and
his party, together with General Sickles'
and General Webb sat down to a dejeuner
a la fourchette. There were a great many
callers during the afternoon and evening,
A dispatch was sent to General Sherman
saving that the Count would be pleased to
see him at his earliest convenience. The
General replied immediately. To-morrow
the Count and his party will see some of tbe
sights of New York, receive a few friends
and in the evenios dine with General Bnt
terfield. It is likely that the Count will
make a trip to Niagara and perhaps to some
of the large citities in the East It is plan
ned now to sail for Europe on October 29,
or November 31.

GUTHRIE LEGISLATORS ARE WATCHED

Great Excitement Over tbo Capital Loca
tion Fcnrs ot More Riotous Scenes
Speaker Daniels Prostrated by Yester
day's Row Both Factions Determined.
GuinRlE, October 3. The excitement
over the capital location, which reached its
climax yesterday, continued to-day. After
the demonstration against Messrs. Daniels,
Perry and Nesbitt last evening had sub
sided, S. R. Mitchell, City Attorney of
Oklahoma City, who chanced to be in town,
sent this telegram to one of his friends at
home: "Your representatives were mobbed
on the street to-day. Send 100 armed men."
The armed men arrived on the first train
this morning, and were anxious to secure
seats of advantage in the hall of the lower
House before the body met in its regular
session.
Fully twice as many friends of the Guthrie
measure were also present Their presence
caused intense feeling and it would have
taken but the slightest outbreak to have
caused serious trouble. Speaker Daniels
was too ill, suffering from nervous exhaus
tion, caused by the exciting scene, of which
he was tbe center yesterday, te preside over
the session. As soon as tbe House
was called to order Representa
tiue Terrill introduced a resolutiou calling
attention to tbe presence of armed men in
the chamber,, declaring their presence to ha
undesirable, and directing "the fa'erpeant at
Arms to eject all spectators, newspaper men
excepted. The resolution was voted down
20 to SO. Considering the probability of
a repetition of yesterday s riotous scenes it,
was deemed .advisable to postpone until to
morrow further action on the capital ques
tion, A reporter called to see Speaker Daniels
to-day. He was utterly prostrated and con
sented to an interview against his physi
cian's advice. He said in substance: "I
have stood by Oklahoma City as long as I
think I can. I signed that bill under a
misapprehension, and I have so informed
the Governor."
The Speaker wa3 very weak,-but he sum
moned up strength sufficient to write a com
munication to tho House stating the
facts in his interview. He also framed a
resolution which would be introduced to
morrow providing for the recall of the bill
irom the Senate. When this resolution is
preseuted a lively time is expected. The
Oklahoma City force is still here and its
motto is, "Fair play for Oklahoma City."
The Guthrie force is determined that its
city shall also have fair play, and unless
both agree as to what constitutes fair play
trouble will doubtless ensue.

A-SPANISH SWINDLE.
An Attempt to Get a Yankee to Look for
Sarled Treasure.
rSPECIAL TELEOBAM TO THE DISPATCH.
Waterbury, Ct., October 3. An en
deavor has been made to involve Mayor
Baldwin, of this city, in one of those peculiar
swindles which Minister Palmer recently
made reference to. One Avita wrote to him
that he was imprisoned at Sagunto, in Spain,
and had a secret worth much. Mr. Baldwin
called for the particulars. A priest (Jennl
nez) replied that Avita was dead, but had in
his will ordered him to do the business. He
said that, driven from Spain by the enmity
of the Queen, he had concealed in America
$250,000 which had been entrusted to him
by King Alfonso. He had been sentenced
to prison for ten years, and to pay cqurt
costs amounting to $6,000.
His personal effects wereheld for the pay
ment of these costs. They included a trunk,
in which was a diagram ot the exact spot
where the property is concealed. If Mr.
Baldwin would send the money tor these
goods and for the passage of the priest to
this country together, they would find the
treasure and Mr. Baldwin should have one
quarter of it The letters written in Spanish
were very elaborate, and bore the official
seal of the Parish of Saganto.

meeting wer prominent Independent Re
publicans who had songht that honor.
Ex-Governor Pattison wound up yester
day's campaign work with a rousing meet
ing at Braddock. It was
positively announced
that the Governor would
arrive in the little city
it 7 o'clock, and at that
our an immense crowd
ras gathered at the
Pennsylvania Railroad
depot, to greet the dis
tinguished guest of tbe city.
The Reception Committee in carriages,
accompanied by the St. Thomas Cornet
Band, was present to escort Mr. Pattison,
and his party to the Commercial Hotel,
where a reception was to havo been ten
dered him, but the news came that the
party was delayed in Pittsburg, and would
arrive somewhat later. This did not dis
may his friends, but they lingered around the
depot, listeningto stirring patriotic refrains,
and talking of the canvass now being made.
Hundreds of Republicans greeted their
Democratic neighbors with the remark that
they were there to see how the ex-Governor
of Pennsylvania really looked.
A HEARTY RECEPTION.
After two hours' waiting, the crowd was
rewarded by tbe arrival of tbe candidate
and his party. Cheer after cheer arose
from the throats, evidently from the hearts,
of those assembled. The party entered car
riages and drove to the hotel, bnt on ac
count of the lateness of the hour, tbe re
ception part of the programme was passed
over, and the line of march was imme
diately tak-a to the rink.
All along, the line it, was one grand
ovation. Rockets, roman candles and red
fire made a blaze of light to guide the party
to its destination. Tbe pavements were
jammed with a great crowd of men, regard
less of party.
One of the managers,, an independent Re
publican, by the way, said that Mr. Pattison
is not a Democratic candidate in Braddock,
but a candidate of tbe people of every party.
To back his words with solid facts he pro
duced evidence which could not be doubted.
There were 110 vice presidents appointed for
the meeting, about one-half of whom are
Republicans, whose names were placed
among the vice presidents, at their own re
quest Among those named were found:

OTE BIG RINK MEETING.
When the party arrived at the rink there)
was an immense crowd ready to greet ths
ex-Governor and his friends. He was fol
lowed into the hall nntil it was packed to
the doors and hundreds were turned away.
Fully 2,000 people listened to the addresses
of the evening, and very few turned away,
although tbe hall was badly crowded. P.
S. Todd was President of the evening, and
he was introduced by 'Squire Holtzmao.
Mr. Todd, in turn, introduced Mr. Pattison
in a very short speech, in which he said
that this was a campaign to decide who
should rule. "One candidate," said he,
"represents the party boss. The other rep
resents the people, irrespective of politics."
Governor Pattison opened his address by
relerring to his delay and the loss of time
resulting. He said that a loss of time was
bad on all occasions and in all the affairs of
life. After a neat illustration of this mat
ter, he proceeded:
Braddock is distinguished for its large in
dustries and Its great wealth, and there could
be no better vindication of her prosperity than
this assembly here to-night Men constitute

At the beginning, in onr early history, the

forth in tbe Declaration of Independence that
all men are created equal. The motive that

for the opinions of men. Tbe men who formed
the Government came from foreijrn lands who
