BATTLE CRY,

(Concluded fiom rflftc 1.1
vrigcs will liny Increased quanlltloi ot the flour,
th mcl, the pork nd the beef which the
American farmer ralM. On Iho contrary, If I
find market lor vht the American farmer
raises, t have not only liencfltcd the American
farmer, hut 1 have benefited tlio American man
ufucturcr nnd the men who work lor him Jnt
as much, Because the Increased market ahroud
for what the! farmer raises, Rive the farmer
more moncv with which to buy tlw clothing,
the liooK the shoes, the Implement', the books,
the buggies, the wagons nnd the pianos which
the American manufacturer makes. The Ucpub
Horn theory Is that the American italic Is one
Bitat family, nnd all ut us arei members. , All
of us ore brothers nnd sisters. Our Interests
ore one. Our welfare Is mutual. You cannot
Injure- the American firmer without Injuring the
American inamif.it litrcr. Vmi c.innot Injure the
maniifacturer vvllhMit Injuring the f.inncr. You
latmol Injure capital without Injuring labor; be.
cause on the prolltahle Investment of capital
labor depends for rniplojment. And you can
not Injuro labor without Injuring capital; became
, upon the prolltahle ctnplojmcnt of labor the
profitable Investment of rapltil absolutely und
exclusively depends. This Is the motto of
American prosperity ns well ns AmcilcJii unity:
"One (or all nnd all for one."
So, j ou bee, that while Ml per cent, of every
thing tho American fanner raises Is sold right
here nt home, and always will be: while SO per
cent, of everything the manufacturer makes Is
Bold right here nt home, and alwajs will bo! the
prosperity of both depends tipon n profitable
market for the extra 20 per cent, which they
produce. To find that market now, and secuie
It to the American people for nil time. Is the
purposo of the Itcptibllcnn pirly. That policy
and purposo the opposition to the government
In this campilgn nra lighting. And ro It Is
that this campaign Is a campaign of the Aiuerl
can people against "every other progressive people
in Hit; world.
How to Secure New Markets.
If you csk how tho llcpubllcati pirty In this
campaign proposes to secure markets for jour
surplus, and how iho opposition to the govern
ment lias resisted and now resists that policy, I
answer that tho ltipublican pirty secured the
Hawaiian islands for the Dulled States; the op
position were opposed to that acquisition. The
Itcpulillcan paity secured l'orto llico for the
United States; the opposition resisted that ac
quisition. The Republican party has secured
the Philippines for the American people, and vec
propose to hold them for the American people
-till the end of time;--tho opposition proposes
to give them up. "lhc war placed Cuba in a
position where she might hao been ours, and
lome day, by the choice of the Cuban people,
Cuba will bo ours; the opposition unalterably,
unconditionally and absolutely favor throwing
Cuba forever beyond the control of the American
people. These gicat possessions, oven now, are
giving an Increased market for evcrj thing the
Ami lean manufacturer and farmer produces.
Spain's exports to Cuba was $20,000,000 a year;
If Cuba were ours, our exports to Cubi would
be In ten years more than $260,000,000 annually.
Our exports to thcVlavvallan islands in 1690, be
fore we annexed them, were $1,090,000; today
otir exports to the Hawaiian Islands are over 13,
600,000, an increase of ocr 175 per cent. In less
than three years; in a Binglo trade year our trade
with the Hawaiian islands has increascct nearly
$5,000,000, a growth in trade of nearly 100 per
cent. In ttrclie short months. Our exports to
the Philippine"! before they came into our pos
session did not average $150,000 every ear, al
though wo bought nearly $.5,000,000 annually of
the arcliipclnra's exports. Sometimes we ex
ported less than '10D.0OO to the Philippines in
an entire twelve-mouth. Today our exports in
time of war, with Industry dead, commerce rira.
Ijzed, land all the agents of prosperity suspended,
l, novel thclcss. over 2,000,000 eveiy ear, an
increase of nearly l,b00 per cent. The total ex
polls to Hawaii fimn nil the world are over
$13,00,000 annually; and whereas, before we took
them, we exported less than l;3,000,00fl of thU,
we now- export nearly nil of it. The total ex
ports to tho Philippines fiom all the world was
nearly 1v!0,O00,0OO; if what lias occurred in Ha
waii cjtcuis In the Philippines, we will export
nearly all of tint and have almost $.'!0,000,000
of expoit trade even it we did no nunc to de
velop Philippines resources than the Spaniards.
Philippine Possibilities.
Spain exports to the Philippine were y;,M0,inv
annually; our experts In iho Philippines ill live
years will be .'rf.O.iXWWO 'inuuilly, even if vvc
do int inonopolle the Philippine tiaclc as wo
have the Hawaiian tride. I'or Spain did not
develop Philippines icsourcra. Spiin onl.v
touched with her iiuger-tips the cuimiiuii.il pen,
bib'llltics of lint ilchcst ocean possession on the
gloV Spall. 's tiade was confined to couinieicc
Willi a narrow Miip of coist lazily cultivated.
The va-t interior, ikher than MUsourl, was never
tombed; the mines ot iron never opened; tin
deposits of copper never disturbed; no uxo laid
to the limitless foicsts ot loicvvood, mahogany
and 1c lK. There is mole niehogany and io.se
wood in the Philippines than there Is oak or
walnut In the United States. Theic Is more
material for (multure in Mindanao now- tlian
time ever was pine in all the plueiiei of .Mk la
gan. Tho Philippines are the only place on
earth vvhcie hemp can be raised. It is from
hemp Hut ropes unci binding twine arc made.
Not ono'tenth of the h.'iup possibilities of the
Philippines are .vet developed. And tho hemp
that is piodiieeil is spoiled, wasted and ruined
by the undo and negligent treatment of the
native). Willi all these resources developed,
with good roads making a net-work of coin
nici'c mid communication through every Island,
with school-houses in every village, with the
Increased wants which these school houses will
create (for education always brings new desires),
with the increase In population which condi
tions of peace nnd orderly industry will bring,
with all the developments that will come from
American control our tiaelo with the Philippine
Archipelago will, in ten years from the time
peaco Is established, iiach more than f 100,000,000
evcrj' jcar.
Peace Will Bring Trade.
This Increase will begin when peace begins.
And this will come with the re-election of Will
iam MtKlnh-.v, The last hope of the Philippine
rebellion Is the election ot the candidate of thu
oppusltiou to tha government in Aimrlea,
If tho opposition tell ou that tha Philippines
have already cost us $20,000,000, provided for in
tho treaty, and S1S7,000,000 required, in sup
pressing the Insurrection, mid that our $2,000,000
nniiu.il expoits is no icttiin for that outlay. I
answer, lirst, that the W67,00O,O0O never would
have been spent had It not been foi those here
In America who have aided and nbctted the ic
bellhm against our I'l.ijr ill the Philippines. I
atisvvrr, second, that now tint that money has
b'censpent, it Is bolter to stop further tcslstanee
l!y sustaining the government In this fiction,
keeping the islands ami having something to show
fpr, ur $;Ou,(lOO,tK'0, lather than elect Mr. Ilryan.
Etitrcnder tho Philippines and have nothing to
"iow, for our $20,000,000. 1 answer, third,
thijt'even If tho Philippines have, by icason of
thf tefslstaneo to (he government In this rmintiy
vOllcfe, has encouraged the resistance to the guv
eminent in that country, cost us moie than
JOOlpDO,000-iiay, even If they had cost lis this
without resistance, they would have been an ex
celliiit Investment, Our ifiSM,(O01 c( export
trail), 'Js no nuMsuie of (he piolltableiitss of that
Investment. If u farmer pi.vs $l,0O0Wor his
firm and makes, during the Hist sear, only $200,
that docs not mean that he has lost feOO. Ho
has the $200 which be has made, and he also
has his farm, feo we have our trade with the
Philippine!, which trade In tlio future will In u
tingle year repay us lor all our expenditures.
So that In llicsc new- possessions which Hie He.
plibll'can party has secured and inttudi to hold
lower, tho' American people h.ivn already a
treat' and a new, market for pur surplus, and In
She not dlstuut future will have markets for not
less than $a0O,00O,(Kj of American piojticls every
rear, And all thli the opposition to. the gov
ernment piopnses tp thinvv uivav j uiid all this
very nallou,'ep carjli llnglaiid, Gcmuny, Franco,
HuJa Is anxious to secure. The policy of the
opposition to the government It the policy whlcli
rvary, lorelgu" nation In tho world would have u
a3ot. The pulley o tho Itcpubltcau party Is
the policy which every other nation In lh
world would prevent us from carrjlnj out it
they could.
net while these possesions givo us the monop
oly of their markets which wc did not hvo
before, and while tbeso uru valuable, these pos
sessions are far more valuable because they giv
us, the mljhty ruirkeU o( tin unnumbered mil
lions of Oceania and Asia. They give us these
enirktts because) they are distributing 'points (or
Amtrlcaa (food for these markets. Thy give
M thu kirkota because' itey 'are la the midst
( tbtsa markets, and they nuko our mine, our
iUa and cur gosdj known to th people who
buy In theoe markets, If the opposition Icll you
that commerce depends Upon cheapness and
quality, I answer that every town In Mlssoutl
refutes that statement. Cheapness ami quality
have something to do with iccurlnef market,
but convenience and advertising have more. The
finest slock of goods In Missouri at the lowest
price may be brought to any courtly! but 11 the
owner ol those goods does not put them In a store
at u convenient place In n convenient town, and
then docs not tell ou about them, Jou never
will buy them. (Jcrmany, today, Is taking ling
land's trade away In the Orient for Ihcso very
reasons) First, because fJcrmany Is gelling pos
sessions, as Kngland has done) second, derail'
Germany lets tha people know about her goods,
while Kngland rests upon her old reputation) and
third, because Germany makes her goods as Hie
people want them and not as Uerniuiy wints
them, white Kngland makes her goods as Kngland
wants them and not ns the people want them.
Stopping Stones.
Apply this reasoning to the Philippines. They
are in the midst of Oceania. They arc ncaier
India than Kansas City Is to New Ymk. They
are nearer China thin Kansas City Is to San
Krantlscn. 'I hey uic next-door neighbor to all
Asia. They aru a part of Asia. The Asiatics
drat only with the people they l.novv. This is
even true of ourselves. Hut it Is peculiarly
chainctcrlstlrally true of the Asiatics. The
Philippines will make us known, are making US
known, to tho hundreds of millions of purchasers
of American Hour, American eottons, American
woolens, Amcilciiu machinery, throughout the
awakening Kist. The Philippines nra steppln'
stones to the ino'l sought for market In the
world. In the same way Cuba and I'oito Itleo
are the stepping stones to the second most
sought for market In the world, the mirket ot
South America, whoso nelghhois they arc, and
whoso blood, anil whose speech, and whose faith
are the same.
All these markets are sought for with deadly
rivalry by Kngland, Oeniianj-, Kiaiirc nnd litis
sla. All the.c markets have not been vigorously
sought for by us before, because our .own mar
kets nnd Km ope consumed our surplus. All
theso markets the American people must now
secure because our own markets and the markets
of Kurope no longer consume all our Hurplies.
All these markets the lttptibllcan patty proposes
to secure, and all theo markets the opposition
to the government proposes to abandon. And ro
again I say this Is an American rntnpiign. It
Is a struggle between this nation and our peo
ple nnd their Interests on the one side, nnd ev
ery commercial intlnn of the world nnd the In
terest of their people on the other. The He
publican policy is n policy of commercial re
treat. Objections Met.
Why c.innot the lcpublic hold possessions and
administer government over them? This world
has got to bo occupied by civllled mankind;
government of liberty nnd law Is going to be
declared over all the globe. All this is the
highest mislon to which ivillzeil niinklnd can
lay Its hands. And If wc me not fitted to do
our part in spreading civ 111? illon over the earth
because we arc a republic, then a republic is
not fitted for the highest achievement required of
civilized government. Ho vou believe lint that
is true? Ho you believe that our republic does
not fit us far any career ot pro'perity, ot duty
or glory which circumstance may open to other
nations of the world? No! Xol The republic
that Washington nnd Hamilton planted; the re
public whose boundaries Jeflcrson flung In the
unexplored wilderness; the republic whose only
continuous policy Ins been the advancing domin
ion of the flag; the Hepublic, to cast out of
whose blood the poison of separation and di
vision, a million martyrs to nationality died;
the Hepublic which has met foreign nation after
forelga nation and never known defeat; the re
publicwhich ha.s even triumphed over itself nnd
established the immortality of the nation; the
republic, the powers of whoso government hnvo
equalled always and ciciywhere Hie necessities of
the occasion that Hepublic is cap.blu of ad
ministering government over peoples who know
nut what just government means; of holding d'
pendcles which command for the American people
the maikets of mankind; and of keeping tho
Stars nnd Stripes above those Gibrallars of com
mercial, naval nml military power, xvhoncc
America may and will rule the ocean highways
of the world.
Question of Consent.
If the opposition tell jou that vvc cannot gov
ern a people without their consent, Jskr them
by what authority we govern, and for a hundred
j cars have governed, the Indian. The Ameiiean
patriots of 1770 were onlj a llge majority of the
people of th" colonics, and a stiong minority
vveie true to the ltiitl-.Ii Hag aiid king. And yet
did not Washington and Hamilton and Jefferson
not only unfutl the flag of a new- gov eminent
without the consent ot the Tories, but &hot and
sabered tint consent into tlicni? When .Teflcrson
Davis unfurled the Stars and Hir, armies as
L'ave ns ever matched to bittle and death rallied
ainv.nd that fatal nnd fated banner. What was
their watchword? It was this: "We ltave a
right to scpirale Mlf-goveiiiment." And what
was the answer of their northern brothers. From
Hull Urn to App"!iiattox, from Atlanta to the
Sea, fiom Yiekshurg to the (Julf, the living sol
diers of Hie lnloii wrote with their blood thp
Tictoilous denial that their biothers of the South
'might govern themselves out'lele tlio dominion
of the Stars and .Stupes. Lincoln did not aslc
the consent of .lelleisnn Davis; lie only said: "I
will preserve this Union peaceably it I can,
fuuihly if I must;" and to that proposition,
when he called those who believed in preseiv
ing the nation to sustain him, they sent the
answer hack that echoed around the world: "We
ni o coming, Father Abraham, three hundred
thousand stiong." Grant did not ask the con
sent of lluck.net. he only said: "My terms
are Immediate and unconditional surrender;" he
did not ask i lie consent of I.ee at the Wilder
ness, he only said: "I propose to fight it out
on tills line if it takes all rummer." And so
with saber drawn anil bayonet fixed, and shotted
guns, the sovereignty of the Old Flag was re
established from the Texan plains to where
Maryland's blue hills looked on her bluer sea.
And today the soldiers of the gray arc as glad
that the nation was preserved and the govern
ment of nn unvlolated republic establishccl over
them without thdr consent, as the soldiers of
the blue.
Lincoln knew that we would have better
government under the old Hag than under sep
crate banners. We- know tint theio will be
bcttqr government under thu Stars nnd Stripes In
our great Pacific nrihipelngn than under Agul
naldo's banner of blood. And so our answer to
this insurrection is the satuo answer Amei leans
have always given when the American Flag has
been assailed nt home or abioad, "immediate
nnd unconditional xiirrcndcr." And after that
will come the other answer, no less Amerlian,
"let us have peace."
American Poople Can Be Trusted.
When the time arrives when these wauls of the
nation can u-e the constitution, the Ameihan
peoplo will give It to tliein. It is Impossible
that Ameiiean uu'ses will not do Justice, It is
Impossible Hut tho American people will not
work righteousness. Free institutions are not
deslioved by extending them. He Is not the
best guardian of liberty who woiilel be a miser
of liberty. Ameiiean education will not perish
because we plant the tehool house In the
Islanels of the sea, American free speech will
not bn paralved became wo give Ireo speech

ADMIRAL WATSON ON
ELECTION OF BRYAN
National Prestige I Bound to Suf
fer If Our Tlag Is Furled In
the Philippines.
tly Exclusive Wire from The Associated Press.
Chicago, Oct. 1. Hoar Admiral Wat
Hon, late commander oC the squadron
of the United States In oriental wnters,
thus sums up his opinion of condi
tions ns they ut present exist In the
Philippines:
I nm looking forward to Hie result ol the prcsl"
tlentlal lontest with anxiety and deep Interest,
for I know what It means, not only to tho futura
of our country as a power among the nations ot
the world, but to hundreds of thousands of peoplo
in the far-away Philippines, who wonder If wo
are going to slop aside and watch their throats
being cut by the Tagalog tribes now In arms
against us.
I would like to correct a misconception that
exists In Hie minds of sutio people concerning; the
olllcers and men of our army anil navy. Can any
body believe that citizens who servo under our
flag, and who arc generally known nt home as
peaceable and big-hearted men, ore going to
change their whole nature as soon as they get
out ot sight 'of the United States? I can say
with all sincerity that, Inspired liy the liberal
minded instructions that have come from the
president, the secretary of the navy and the ee
rotary of war, the attitude of the army and navy"
in the Philippines toward those children of civil
ization has been constantly one of broad humani
ty and sympathy. Wherever in those islands an
army post has been established for any Ifltgth of
time the neighboring populations have taken to
heart tho attitude of our men toward them, and
have been swift to show their gratitude.
The cry has been persistently spread In the
Philippines that witli the defeat of the present
administration Agulnaldo becomes In a moment
the uncrowned king of the islands, as rapidly al
Hie presto change of the magician. Now, the
great majority of the people of those islands look
upon Agulnaldo and Ids party as enemies. The
cry only serves to give them the thought ol
what will happen it American protection of their
homes and lives arc withdrawn. There are thous
ands of them today willing to be formed Into
companies nnd regiments to render effective ser
vice in killing off this guerilla warfare, for It Is
nothing else, and to aid in bringing peace and
prosperity, under American rule, to their native
land.
Says the War Is Ended.
Some people ask, "Why has the war not been
brought to a close before this? I answer that
the war has been brought to a close. In a coun
try like Luzon, however, a small sjstem of guer
rilla warfare may be piosccutcd for a time with
success against the greatest army in the world.
I say "for a time," for every clay tho opposition
grows more and moro feeble. I have no doubt
that in a little while, as soon as our government
can perfect tho organization of a native sjstem
policing the country, the bands of Agulnaldo'a
followers will be rapidly dissolved. I do not
mean by this that they will be killed, nit,
with the assurance of the re-election of Prcslelent
McKlnlcy and tlio-determination of the American
people that the flag which now floats over the
Philippines shall be respected there as It is here,
I say tint the men now in revolt against our
authoiity will lay down their arms.
. The vast majority of the people are beginning
to realize what American rule means. Once they
were suspicious of us, naturally enough, for the
Spaniards bad lied to them for centuries. But
they now know tint the word of all American
officer and of the American president, from whose
authority that word first comes, is as good as tils
bond. I have followed my flag in many countries
and on many sens. I have never yet seen it stand
for oppression or bad faith with any people, weak
or strong. And I know that it does not stand
for bad faitli now.
SENATOR QUAY'S
CAMPAIGN SPEECH
The First of a Series Throughout
Pennsylvania in Favor of Mc-
Kinley and Roosevelt.
By Kxelusivc Wire from The Associated Press.
West Chester, Pa., Oct. 1. Ex-Unltpd
States Senator Quay tonight made the
first of what Is to be a series of
speeches throughout the state of Penn
sylvania, In favor of the election of
McKlnlcy and Koosevelt and those can
didates for the state legislature favor
able to that faction of the Republican
party recognizing Mr, Quay as Its
loader. His speech tonight was made
before a large crowd, and was listened
to attentively.
Mr, Quay's speech was largely de
voted to state Issues, and he severely
criticized the efforts of the Democrats
and anti-Quay Republicans to effect
tho success of a fusion movement. Re
ferring; to the United States senator
ship, Mr. Quay said he was not a can
didate In the ordinary acceptance of
the term. "The Republican state con
vention," ho said, "Insisted upon the
presentation of my candidacy to the
people and I submitted with some re
luctance to their judgment. To me
that high office Is no longer attractive.
Its duties have occupied the last twelve
years of my life, and they were ex
ceedingly vexatious and laborious. My
career, as you all know, .has not been
exactly pleasant sailing upon summqr
seas, and advancing years admonish
me that If peace and recreation ape
ever to find me In tho course of nature
they must come very soon.
"If the choice of tho Republicans of
Pennsylvania should fall upon another,
their judgment would be greeted by
me, If not with satisfaction, at least
with relief. If the Issue could bo pio
sented to a popular vote of the Repub
licans of the stute at the ensuing elec
tion, that course would tend veoy
largely to subdue the Ill-temper now
munlfest In certain distinguished quar
ters and would serve as a lightning rod
for our Republican local legislative und
congressional tickets."
Mr. Quay, In speaking of submitting
his namo to a popular vote, said of
those opposed to him; "If they are
fearful of fraud In the great centers
of population, tho counties of Phila
delphia and Allegheny may be elimin
ated from the canvass. This seems to
me to be a fair proposition, approxi
mating the election of United States
senators by direct vote of the people."
Discussing ballot reform and neces
sity for it, he said; "Doubtless frauds
are committed In the city of Philadel
phia, as 'elaeevvhere' in great centers of
population, but no sane man will bu
llevo that they obtain In Philadelphia
tq a greater extent than elsowhero un
der ltlto conditions op to an extent suf
ficient to utftiet great results, It Is
illlllcult to percoivo uny motive for
such crimes. No ballot law can be de
vised which will convert a minority
Into u majority, and no ballot law ran
be devised which will make Pennsyl
vania a Democratic state or Philadel
phia a Democratic cty,"
Touching the subject of a substitu
tion for the present law, he said;
"Without pretending to control results
I believe I am able to say that Mr,
Guffoy, who IniMated the proposition
of a new law, may frame any fair
statute whjch Is a manifest improve
ment over tho present one and the
Republican organisation will aid In Us
passage. We will repeal for him the
Baker law and substitute for It the
duffey law, and the legislative action
will, I have no doubt, be approved by
the executive who sits beside me.
"Mr. auftey will, however, tolerate
only fusion to accomplish his reforms.
The results anticipated he save; to the
public in a carefully prepared Inter
view. He expects to reduce the Mc
Klnley majority very largely In the
state; to Increase the Democratic rep
resentative In the legislature from 87
to 100; to Ihold all the congressional
districts nnW represented by Demo
crats; to procure a ballot reform law
and nn apportionment which will
largely Increase the present Demo
cratic representation In congress and
to defeat the election of Mr. Quay to
the Benate."
In conclusion Mr. Quay made an ap
peal for the election of iMcKlnley and
Roosevelt, expressing the opinion "that
the best state of the union will give the
best majority In the union for tho best
president God has vouchsafed to tho
union since the death of Abraham Lin
coln." Governor Stone followed Senator
Quay In nn eloquent endorsement of
the McKlnley administration and the
endorsement of Mr. Quay for United
States senator. Ho criticized the fu
sion movement and urged loyal sup
port to nil caucus nominees,
BRYAN IN THE
PINE BARRENS
Speech At West Superior An Even
Dozen Made in the Day.
By Exclusive Wire from The Associated Press.
St. Paul, OCt. 1. Mr. Bryan today
traversed what arc known as tho Plna
rtnrl-pns nnd tha Kni-nii Onlr norttnn of
Minnesota, reaching the agricultural ,
part of the stute north of this city dur
ing the afternoon. Ho made the flr3t
speech of the day at West Superior,
Wis., beginning before 8 o'clock In the
morning.
He Immediately crossed tho St.
Louis river to Duluth and starting
with an hour speech there, he made
speeches at eight other places on the
way, which, together with the speech
at Duluth and Superior, and thosa
made tonight in this city, made an
even dozen speeches fot. the day. Four
of the speeches averaged an hour In
duration, and the remaining eight fif
teen minutes each, making about six
hours of speech-making, all told, for
the day. He was accompanied
throughout the day by Governor Llnd,
Victor Lawson, chairman of the State

SENATOR HILL ON THE STUMP.
Principal Speaker at the Academy of
Music, Brooklyn,
By Exclusive Wire from Tho Associated Press.
New York, Oct. 1. David B. Hill was
the principal speaker at the Academy
of Music, Brooklyn, tonight, the oc
casion being the opening of the Demo
cratic campaign In King? county. The
hall was crowded. Mr. Hill said, in
the course of his speech:
Without deprecating the Importance
of the questions of trusts, finances,
taxation, centralization, government
by injunction, home rule, economy
and other questions worthy of atten
tion, It was believed by the Kansas
City convention that the vital question
of this campaign would be whether
our form of government Is to be pre
served in all its simplicity and integ
rity. It Is called, In brief, the issue
of "Imperialism." In other words, it
Is the Issue of a repullc versus an em
pire. "President McKlnley says there is
no such Issue and yet ho devotes the
greater part of his extended letter of
acceptance In eulogizing it. It is the
contention of the Democratic party
that the constitution Is and must be
supreme over every portion of our
country. Hence, there can be no such
thing as an American colony belong
ing to the United States and over
which our constitution has no juris
diction. Such a situation is impossi
ble under our form of government.'"
Kx-Governor Stone, of Missouri, was
presented at tho conclusion of Mr.
Hill's speech and was given an ova
tion. Resolutions were unanimously ndopt
ed endorsing the nomination of Bryan
and Stovenson and pledging support
of John B. Stnnchfleld for governor,
endorsing tho platform of the Kan
sas City convention and emphasizing
especially that part of the platform
referring to the Philippines.

separation of the allied forces, and
that If they were to be whipped they
must be whipped together and not sep

hard pressed for issues In the present
campaign, and he predicted that before
the campaign was over they would bo
forced back upon the War of the Re
bellion as an Issue, as they had already
been forced from the financial ques
tion to the tariff. He predicted farther
that as the campaign progressed there

more and more common. He talked of
trusts at length, and repeated his
statement mado at Stillwater concern
ing the Ice trust. '

ho said It coutd not be on account of
the Indians, as they were growing
fewer and fewer. The Increase was to

Mr. Bryan concluded with a brief
discussion of tho Philippine question.

LABOR LEADERS
FEAR WO BREAK
Pleased, However, to Learn That the
Offer of the Philadelphia and
Reading Company Has Been
Ignored by the Miners.
By Kxolustre Wire from The Vuoolatod rrss.
Hazleton, Oct. 1. Although the labor
leaders positively said they did not fear
a break in the rank's of tho anthraclto
coal strikers, they were, nevertheless,
pleased to learn that the 10 per cent,
advance granted by tho Philadelphia
and Reading company In the Schuyl
kill valley was totally Ignored by the
striking mine workers today. It was
predicted that many of the strikers
would return to work under the belief
that the 10 per cent, increase would be
the limit of tho operators' concession,
but the unanimity of tho men In de
ciding to stand out for a further ad
vance caused many remarks of sur
prise. It was expected in some quarters
that today -would bring a turning point
In the strike, but nothing came to the
surface that would lead to any indica
tion of the strike nearlng an end. Since
the operators began to hold confer
ences, President MitcheUts receiving
more Information than formerly and
giving out less. That he knows more
about the situation than ho cares to
tell Is hardly doubted by any one. He
has practically admitted that he re
ceived advices from New York as to
the doings of the operators. There is
still a lack of anything tangible on
which to base the report of an Immedi
ate settlement. President Mitchell con
tinues to deny that he knows anything
about it. The strike situation in the
Lehigh valley showed a change in
favor of the men. Several hundred men
quit work at the Calvin Pardee mlnps
at Lattlmer, as the result of persuasion
of the 400 mnrching strikers, and at
Ontlda and Cranberry the coal com
panies lost additional men. No col
lieries were closed down In this region
today.
" Notice of the increase In wages and
the reduction in the price of nowder,
decided upon by the operators at
Wllkes-Barre today, were posted to
night at all of the collieries In the
Lehigh region.
President Mitchell, when shown a
copy of the notice, declined to say any
thing at this time, but intimated that
he might outline his position at the
Wllkes-Barre mass meeting tomorrow.
He added, however, that there would
be no resumption of work until a con
vention of the anthracite miners had
been called and the proposition con
sidered. TEN THOUSAND TONS
