I have ever had and still have a stroiiK
mid alYectlonate feeliiiK for the old town
of Lisbon. The old and honored names as
sociated with Its early history are us fam
iliar lo me as the primer of my boyhood.
None of Ihe early Ohio communities were
more fortunate than yours In the charac
ter of the men w ho built up your town anil
sustained it. Your old business men were
atnoiiK the ablest lu the state and your
lawyers and preachers and doctors were
famous some of them not only beyond the
lines of your county but beyond the lim
its of lite slate. (Applause.)
. I have always cherished Ihe fact that
my grandfather was one of ihe earliest
schoolmasters of your oid vlllnae und the
beloved teacher of many of your most dis.
tiligulshcd and useful citizens. I have nl
ways counted It an honor, a special honor,
that It was Riven to me to represent the
congressional district in which my Imme

always a special distinction to have had
the confidence and trust of your communi

ceived a majority also from your county,
which practically settled the contest be

limes since why you should have slven me
that majority iDtuiiist my distinguished
competitors whose experience and age
were much areater than mine and whose
services would have conserved your in.
teivsts quite as well as mine. For that
early manifestation of your trust In me us

The history of your race Is one of wonder

Intelligence, your wllllngnesa to sacrifice

(Applause.) You have made marked and
commendable stildea In the field of edu

education to the men of your race, fitting
them for the responsibilities of life and
equipping them for good citizenship. (Ap
plause.) GOOD MORALS INDISPENS1BLE.
Not only have you been looking carefully
after the intellectual, but you have not
neglected the moral condition of your
race. You have recognized, and proper
ly so, that good character is quite as essen
tial as good education. (Applause.) That
good morals are more Indlspensible than
learning. (Renewed applause.) Roth

membership of your church alone has In

KICKS INSULTED.
Ho Has Hccn Ollcrcd Sinn of .Honey
to lirenk the Deadlock.
Johnstown. Pa..- Sept. 29. I2.H0 a. m.
The Republican congressional con
ference Is still In apparently hopeless
deadlock. Dozens of conferences have
been held throughout the night and
another will be held at I o'clock this
morning, when Hon. .1. L. Hicks -declares
a final vote will be reached. If
at thaj hour the nomination does not
come tn him. ho asserts that he will
throw his delegates to Koser.of Somer
set county. This declaration is scout
ed by all the other candidates, who
claim that Hicks Is playing a bluff.
The general belief exists that the
deadlock will not be broken until late
tomorrow afternoon.
Mr. Hicks tonight authorized the
statement that he had been offered a
very huge sum of money to throw his
vole to Thropp, the lied ford county
millionaire.
He seems very Indignant that he was
approached with such a proposition.

'Ihe shouting at the Hon Air prop

were at llrst fired at pickets, who re
turned the lire. Some comrades came
to their aid, und a dozen or so shots
were exchanged, without effect. The
shooting ut Hie Hohn mine was done
by a sentry becuuse a man refused to
obey the order to halt. Oilier shots
heard during the night are thought to
