GOVERNOR STONE ON THE ISSUES. A Notable Speech by Pennsylva nia's Stalwart Republican Executive. BKYANISM TORN TO TATTERS Timely Hi-d rcme to the Matter of KiinIoii und tho Unit ner Thnt Con- front the Hriull!onn Oritanliatloa In Mut? nitil ntlnn. Governor William A. Stone made what has been regarded as the most notable speech of the state canvass at the rooent convention of the State League of Republican clubs In Phila delphia. The speech was delivered In the Academy of Music and Senator J. U. Koraker, who was the star orator from outside of the state on that OC' cnslon, publicly stated that Governor Stone's speech was the best lie Lad beard in the present campaign. Governor Stone, among other things, Bald: "I greatly appreciate the privilege of addressin;; you ou this occasion. vo have the same candidates that we had four years wro. with this difference William McKInley has been tried by the people and found equal to every emergency, while the Democratic can didate has not been tried. McKInley must be considered by what he has done, while Bryan must be considered 1-y what he claims he will do. You l'.ave on the one hand a competent, faithful public servant, who has mm your confidence, while upon the other you have a visonary theorist. "When four years ago you put Will lam McKInley on trial you put his theories of government on trial. They fr. w 'i GOVERNOR STONE, were sound money and a protective tariff. They, as well as he, have been fully tried and they have proved a complete success. Their success has proved the Democratic theories of free trade and free silver a complete fail ure. The country could not be in its present prosperous condition and sound money and a protective tariff bo wrons. The country could not be in its present prosperous condition and flee trade and free silver be right. The tilal and success of sound money and a protective tarilf prove conclusively that free coinage and free trade aro wrong. Now, which will we have, a man and hia rules of government that we know are right, or a man and his theories that we know are wrong? Will ve discharge our family physician who has cured us of our sickness and keeps us in health and employ n quack who gives the medicine that made us sick? Will we bet our money on a horse that has taken every heat and won every race at home and abroad or on a horse that Ins only pranced before the re viewing stand? MANNA OF SOUND MONEY. "I km w Uryan in congress and ad mire Iris sreat power as an orator. He has delighted me with his eloquence upon more thua one occasion. And I remember that Aaron was a great orator. But it was not Aaron who led the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt. It was Moses, and when tho American people vcre sufforing dur ing Cleveland's administration und' the blighting curse of the Wilson ta iff bill and the threatened free col age of silver; when we were groaning under our task maskers and making bricks without straw, it was not Bryan nor Democratic oratory that lifted our burdena, but It was William McKInley who led vtH out of the land of shadows and fed ns with the manna of sound money and a protective tariff, and al though we still hear the rumble of Democratic chariot wheels our spies have bei-n to the promised land and returned with the rich grapes of pros perity. Wc have manna and quail In abuiidanee and we no longer make Democratic bricks without the straw of protection. "But while the free coinage of silver was the paramount issue four years ago, they say it is not the paramount lsaue now. Our Democratic friends do not think so much of free silver as they did. They are still for it, but they say less about it. They have lost heart in It. They have a new theory. They call it imperialism. They still keep a stock of free trade and free sil ver on their shelves, but they do not ehow them to customers, except to customers from the west. They de Clare thai, imperialism Is the para mount Ik?-,) They say that McKInley and the Republicans are imperialists and tnat the maintenance of an army In the Philippines and the attempt to subdue the insurrection there is im perialism. They say it was all right to buy the Philippines and all right to pay Spain twenty millions of dollars for the. ni, )dt thnt it is always wrong to maintain po:!ti.,i!oa of the purchased property, and they bring forward the declarations of departed saints of the Democratic party to prove that the ac quisition of territory is all wrong and they want us to discuss that. They say that h the paramount Issue. Now, 1 am willing to discuss any question with them except the demngoguery of the Deiuui iiitie party. That is a mat ter ton apparent and self evident to Warrant di.-'u:;sion. AMERICA AS A NATION. "It may be that when our nation wa3 South Dakota and Wyoming.

"Bryan and his Democratic colleagues ursed us to buy tho Philippines. They helped to ratify the treaty with Spain. If there was any imperialism it was in buying the islands. It Is certainly not imperialism to try to get possesion of the property we bought. If McKInley is nu imperialist Bryan is an Imperial ist, because they both favored the pur chase of the Philippines. Mckinley Is only trying to get possession of the property which Mr. Bryan authorized him to buy. Was Bryan iu urging the purchase of the Philippines trying to make a campaign issue? Was he try ing to put the Republican party In a hole? No hole that the Democratic party can dig is big enough to hold the Republican party this fall. Havo we paid $.'0,000,000 for a campaign is sue for the Democratic party? CONGRESS WILL DECIDE. "As to what will be done with the isl ands after we get possession, that will be for congress to decide and not for Bryan or McKInley, if cither is elected president. Bryan says he will call con gress together In extra session to frame a bill for the independent government of the people of the Philippines. Mc KInley says he will put down the rebel lion and get possession and the con gress can deal with the matter, and in the meantime one tribe In the Philip pines, the Tagals, are hoping and pray ing that Bryan will be elected and straining every nerve to hold out until after election. "The Democrats did the same thing In 1SGI. They declared the war a fail ure and proposed a dishonorable peace. They nominated a enndidato upon this issue. The Republicans renominated Llnroln, and declared for the prosecu tion of the war. He went to the poll upon that Issue, and the Confederates kept up the fight, hoping that the Dem ocratic party would win. Lincoln was elected, and the southern Confederacy went to pieces within 40 days after his inauguration. If the Democratic party had stood square up to the war in the campaign of 1S64 Lee would have sur rendered six months before he did. All thnt kept the southern Confederacy to nether during its last days was the hope of Democratic victory, and all that keeps the Philippine rebellion' together now Is the promised aid of the Demo cratic party if successful at the polls In November. RESPONSIBILITY PLACED. "How can Bryan and his colleagues. who openly declare their Intention, if successful, to give terms to Agulnaldo, escape the responsibility for our sol diers slaughtered during this cam paign? I know that the custom of crit icising the administration Is prevalent u campaigns. I know that great lati tude is albwed in criticism, but whero overtures are held out to public ene mies with whom we aro at war it ceases to be legitimate criticism, and ought to be condemned severely at the polls. It is permissible to oppo30 the ad ministration In all Internal matters that do not. affect our relations with other countries, but it is un-American and disloyal to extend sympathy and promise aid to a people with whom wo are at war. Had there been a presi dential campaign cn In 1SDS it would have been equally ns proper for Bryan to have declared his intention to con vene congress for the purpose of stop ping hostilities with Spain as for him mw to declare hin intention, If elected, to stop the war with Agulnaldo and his followers. They are public enemies, and a man who extends sympathy and encouvagemeut to a public enemy is hardly a safe and proper man to elect president cf the United States. "It makes no difference whether tho president happens to be a Republican cr a Democrat, no law abiding citizen enn afford to throw obstacles in hH pntli. We should at all times present a united front to the enemy. We should not encourage Mm by dissensions at home. Tf the Democratic national con vention had declared for a vigorous prevention of the war it would have been over by this time. The last Phll Ipp'ne soldier, hopeless of aid through political dissensions In this country, would h?v thrown down his gun in despair. Ol'KPTION OF HONOR. "I nro surprised thnt the Democrats have raised this question. Our people are a rraceful people nnd love not war, but they have never halted nor hesi tated in front of the enemy. The east and the west may divide upon finance, but they will never divide upon a ques tion that affects the honor of the coun try. We could not, without dishonor, withdraw our soldiers from the Philip pines no lone as there Is a man In arms aeain::t our flair. W did not make war on the Philippines. We acquired the Islands legitimately. As soon ns we had done so Agulnaldo undertook to drive us away. Had we struck our colors and left the islands, docs any one doubt that Bryan would now be charging us with cowardice and claim in;; that we rJiouUl have done Just what we are; doing? "We are eccused of favoring expan sion. Bryan and his followers ore op posed to expansion. Expansion Is growth. The party that will be In con trol in this country must keep pace with the march of events. The coun try has expanded, grown. The Ideas and ambitions of our people have grown; everything has expanded but the Democratic party. That Is their trouble. They Mill tread in the foot titeps of their forefathers. They will not realize the wonderful growth and rxpanslon of the country. Nor will they appreciate the. need of more terri tory and greater markets for our sur plus products. They are an old party, behind the date, a back number. There la not roiiiii in the Democratic party for the growlug energy, zeal and pluck of our new America.

They chance nothing, hazard nothing, risk nothing. They are not fit to govern this country, and they have demon strated that fact every time they have tried it. THERE MUST BE NO HALTING. ' "The country cannot wait It is hur rying on to Its destiny. It has no use for the Democratic party. We must have new consumers and new markets for our surplus products. If today our exports to foreign markets of our sur plus products should cease we would have a panic in 90 days. We ask noth ing of the Democratic party hut to keep out of the way. We are not submitting our plans to-them; we aro not consult ing them: we are pressing forward to capture the markets of the world for our surplus products. The present so calied Democratic party are not Dem ocrats, but an aggregation of all Fopu- llstic factions. The Democrats, the real Democrats, who think more of principle than, party, are voting for McKInley. "I know with the cunning that comes with great experience they are trying lu some counties of our state to cap ture Republicans by fusion upon can didates. A few of our brethren are not satisfied that the majority should rule. They think the minority should rule. When a man in uny organization Is not satisfied that the majority should rule It the organization can better spare thnt man than to change its rules and let the minority rule It. I know of no organization, be It civil, political, re ligious or social, where the majority does not control It. I for one am not willing to try the experiment of permit ting the minority of the Republican party in Pennsylvania to control it. Our majority is not so close In Pennsyl vania but what we can spare those who do not believe that the majority should rule. ADVICE TO INSURGENTS. "This fusion with the Democrats will fail. A presidential campaign in Penn sylvania is a bad time to try the ex periment. These Republicans who are planning it nnd encouraging it had better drop It. They will fall in the cud. Certain newspapers will undoubt edly continue to urge It, but they will have little influence. Their motives are pretty well understood. Recent primaries prove that. They exert no political Influence in their own com munities and they will soon cease to exert any in other localities. The peo ple are not dishonest or corrupt be cause they do not agree with an arti cle in a newspaper. They are quite as likely to be as honest as the man who wrote It, and more so when the man who wrote it does not express his own views, but as he may bo directed to write. QUICK GUN PLAY. It 9avrd a Government Detective's Life In n Street Duel. Cecrge T. Bell, for years a Texas ranger and Inter la tho employ of the government secret service, carries marks of six knife wounds mid seven bullet wounds received while en duty as a ranger for the government. Possibly the most thrilling experience through which he passed was a duel nu the streets of Tucson, A. T., In that town's palmiest days. Bell had becu Instrumental In rounding up nnd capturing n gang of counterfeit ers known as the "Saaug Brooks" gang. They had their "mint" up in the Pellon cillo mountains in the Gilu liver country. All were sent to the penitentiaiy and had been released save Brooks, who es caped. A warrant, Indorsed "dead or alive," was placed in Bell's hands for service. He located Brooks In a saloon in Tucson and, walking up, notified him thnt he was under arrest. Shang glanced patronizingly upon Bell, for he was G feet 2 in Ills i-toeking feet and a giant in ttrength. Tlieu he an nounced, ".Sonny, you'se . 'II have to grow some." He had half turned from the bar as he spoke, and Bell did not know that the movement was shielding his hand as It crept to his pistol. Some one In tho saloon yelled a warning, and Instantly there came a shot. Shaiur reel ed and then sunk to the tlonr with a bul let through his ubduiiien. Bell had fired through bit. cent pocket. The wound was fatal, though it did not ut once cause Brooks to lr.se command over himself. Pulling himself together, the desperado drew his weapon, which lay beneath him, nnd wna leveling It at Bell when the de tective sent another bullet through his pistol wrist, ending his ability to do harm. He died a few hours later. Thongh Bell did not know It nt the time, Brooks hnd two companions In tho town. Jack and Jim Styles, brothers. They heard of the shooting and decided to avenge the death of their pal. Later in the day ns Dell walked past a general store in the frontier town some one veil ed, "Look out, Mr. Bell!" Turning like a l'nsh, at the same time drawing his re volver, the detective saw Jim Styles on the opposite side of the street. Ho raw smoke issue from Styles' weapon, nnd a bullet seared his temple. Jim Styles con tinued shooting, his brother Jack, on the Fame side of the street with Bell, coming to bis assistance. One shot at Jim Styles laid thnt worthy ou the ground. Jnek Styles gave a yell cf anger us ho saw his brother full ami advanced toward Bell, firing ns he came. The two men paused within ten paces of each other, and there they emptied their weapons, l'.ell had no knife, nnd when Styles saw this he gave a yell of triumph, tossed his revolver from him and jumped in with a bowie knife in his bond. The two closed lu upon each other. At Styles' first slash of the knife Dell side stepped, though the point of the knife made a painful wound over his right eyebrow. Another vicious thrust he par ried, though tho keen weapon laid open Lis left forearm, pierced bis upper lip, knocking out two front teeth. By this time the two men were upon the ground. Bell beneath his antagonist. He beard some one call Lis name anil another mo ment felt something strike his side. Reaching out, his hand fell upon a pistol. A sigh of reiief followed this discovery, and he placed the weapon full against Styles' chest just as the latter raised his knife for u last thrust. Bell pulled the trigger nnd sent a bullet through his heart. Both brothers lay dead, nnd Bell faint ed from loss of blood. New York is said to have 7,500 barber shops nnd 23,000 barbers.

Sept. 25. One of the most Important results of the conven tlon of the State League of Republican clubs, held here last week, was the determination of many active young Republicans, visitors from every coun ty lu the state, to return home and work more zealously than ever for the success of the whole Republican ticket. They were Inspired to do this by the eloquent and forcible arguments made by Senator Pornker. of Ohio, Chairman Babcock, of the Republican congres slonnl committee, and other party lend eis, who came to Pennsylvania to urge the Importance of making Repub lican gains In congress in order to save the house to the Republican party for next year. They pointed out the possible gains for the Democracy In many states, and they gave facts and figures to show thnt there Is a dangerous apathetic feeling shown among Republicans, who 3eem to be Impressed with the idea that President McKInley Is certain to be re-elected and that the Republicans are sure to elect a majority of the house. The Republican club men had their minds disabused of the notion that tho Republican party hns practically a walkover in the canvass for the house, and they were Impressed with the Ira portnnce of making Republican con gressional gains In states like Penn sylvania. Every now and then tho Democrats, through Republican dissen sioii8 or indifference, make heavy gains In their representation in the house. Stress was laid by several of the speakers upon the danger of losing Re publican congressmen through the fu slon movements which hnve spread to a number of counties of the stnte, by the etTort3 of the so-called Insurgents While primarily, in many cases, the aim of the insurgents is to to defeat Republican candidates for the stute leg islature, It was shown thnt In the past Republican candidates for congress have been defeated in Just such move ments. There are several congression al districts which, under ordinary cir cumstances, are safely Republican, but which are now made debateable, and probably Democratic, through the leg islative deals with the Democrats made by tho Insurgents. The several speakers who touoned upon this subject at the League con vention were emphatlo In their state ments thut unless prompt action shall be taken by the leaders of the party organization and tho State League to thwart the plans of the fuslonlsts there will be serious losses in the congres slonal delegation. There were reports, however, from some of the club men which Indicated that the fusion movement is not going to make tho headway that was at first feared.' Delegates from Chester, Montgom ery, Union, Snyder, Northumberland. Montour, Blair, Franklin, Venango, Warren and other counties, where the Guffey Democrats and the Flinn-Mar-tin Insurgents are at vork, stated that there Is a growing sentiment among Republicans against the fusion schemers, and that the prospect3 are that in many districts the plans of tho insurgents and their Democratic allies will meet defeat. HURRIEDLY CALLED CONFERENCE That the managera of the fusion movement are not quite at ease was made manifest here last week when a hurried conference was callet' which brought William Fllnn and Co - M. Guffey, the Democratic J committeeman, from Allcghenj . t David Martin and Chairman Rilli..g, of the Democratic state committee, to gether in this city. This quartet are supervising the arrangements for fu sion In the several counties of the state. They were alarmed over several unex pected developments after the Demo cratic primaries In this city, where Guf fey had planned for fusion with tho Martin insurgents. In the legislative districts where John F. Keator and II. L. R. Nyce, in surgent members of the last legislature, were defeated nt the Republican prima ries, the Democrats refused to place them tTpon the Democratic ticket, but named straight Democrats In their stead. Guffey had insisted upon the Democrats in the districts putting Kea tor and Nyce upon their ticket, but tho Democrats refused to take the orders, and named men of their own party in each instance. The same thing was done In several other dis tricts In this city, where Guffey had agreed to help Martin men to defeat the regular Republican nominees for the senate and the house by fusion with the Insurgents. Senator Osbourn, who wa3 renomi nated by the Republicans of his dis trict, wa3 to have been opposed by tho Martlnites with the aid. of the Demo crats, but the Democrats named a man of their own party and Guffey was in a rage when he. met the Democratic leaders who had thrown him down. He summoned Chairman Donnelly, of the Democratic city committee, to the Hotel Stratford, where Martin and Fllnn and Rilling were already assem bled. There Guffey told Mr. Donnelly that he had been betrayed and that tho Democracy of Philadelphia would bo read out of the organization if the par ty leaders did not obey his commands for fusion nominations. Donnelly pro tested thnt he could not prevent what had happened, as the ward leaders had Ignored his instructions and named Democrats where they should havo nominated insurgents. A Ol'F.EHOMBINATION. During ihe civil war as well as our late war with Spain, diarrhoea was one of the most troublesome diseases tho army had to contend with. In many Instances it became chronic and the old soldiers still suffer from it. Mr. David Taylor of Wind Ridge, Greeno Co., Pa., is ono of these.

Rilling and Donnelly went over the whole situa tion, and Guffey pleaded with Donnelly to do what he could to prevent further violations of faith with their Flinn Martin allies. Donnelly promised to do his best, and ho went to work at once to get for mer Speaker Walton nominated for senator by the Democrats of tho Fifth Senatorial district. Walton hnd been defeated at the Republican primarlei by William H. Berkelbuch. the candi date of the stalwart Republicans, by a majority of about 8.000 votes In a total poll of over 34,000. Donnelly soon found that the Democrats of the dis trict would not stand for the plnclng of Walton upon the Democratic ticket. The leaders said they would agree to fusion If It would help the Democratic party, but they declared that the Demo cratic voters would not tolerate the nomination of Walton. The result was that former Representative Dearden, who has been an anti-Martin man and a Martin man by turns, was nominated by the Democratic convention. Pear den Just now Is a Martin man, but ha stands not the slightest chance of being elected. The retirement of Walton has led to a unanimous Indorsement ofBer kelbach, the Republican nominee, by the Republican committee of the Thirty-second ward. In w hich both Berk, bach and Walton reside, and which di vided by n vote of 154 to l.rVj nt the delegate election, although Bcrkelbacn hnd a majority of several hundred In tho nonular vote. The turning down of Walton will mean that Berkelbach will carry thl3 district by at least 4,000 majority. It is likely to be much more, and the fu sion' scheme as regards members of tho house of representatives will fall also. NO SHOW FOR INSURGENTS. It now looks as though the insur gents would not get over four out o! the .19 members of tho houso of repre- sentstives to be elected In this city in November, nnd they will not get a 6ln- cle member of the senate. The Democrats hnd two members of the houso at the last session from this city, but they will not have a Phllndel phian In the next house. The Republicans of Philadelphia are determined to recognize the call froro the Republican congressional commit tee, and they will elect every Republi can candidate for congress from this city. This will mean tha turning down of McAleer, who has been sent to con gross for some yenrs by the Martin Republicans, who have used the Mc Aleer organization for factional pur poses In the Republican party. Mc Aleer Is now confronted with a stab wart Republican, a well known manu facturer, Henry Burk, who will make an aggressive canvass nnd who will be elected If the leaders of tho regular Ro publican organization enn thwart the Martinites in their deals to send Mc Aleer to congress in return for votes for Insurgent members of the leglsla- ture, or for Democratic members of the legislature where Insurgents havo not been nominated. The outlook Is certainly very gloomy for the Fllnn-Martln-Guffoy combine B3 far ns Philadelphia is concerned, and it is probably the same throughout the state. WHERE CRANKS DOUBLE UP.
