strike region In the vicinity of Forest City,
which has been comparatively quiet ever
idnce the strike began, was greatly
-wrought up today by crowds of strikers

returned to work, and as a result Sheriff

asked Governor Stone for troops to assist
lxlm and other civil authorities to preserve
the peace.
At present there are four full regiments,

of cavalry in the field. The Thirteenth

Coal Is -being -shipped from many parts
of the coal .fields .to market, but, com
pared with the normal output, tthe quan

week will be much less than the average
production of one day, wrblch' is- about
303,000 tons. The strikers assert that very
little ef the coal is freshly mined, and that
it is mostly coal washed from the culm
banks or has bten stored at various points
elnce the strike began.

ROOT DEFENDS THE ARMY
SECRETARY ADDRESSES ILLINOIS
REPUBLICAN CLUBS.
American Coarse In Philippines
Proved to Be Hamane, and In
All Instances lor the Best.
PEORIA. Sept. 24. Secretary of "War
Root was the speaker at tonight's meeting
of tne Illlr.o.s League of Republican Clubs.
The Coliseum was packed to the doora,
and the Secretary was vociferously- ap
plauded. His addrers was confined en
tirely to the recent troubles in the Philip
pines and Cuba, and not once during the
evening did he mention the tariff or the
trusts. He said:
"The first spoken words by President
Roosevelt when taking the oath of office
at Buffalo were: 'It is my purpose to con
tinue absolutely unbroken the policy of
President McKInley for the peace, pros
perity and honor of our beloved country.'
"I -:hallehge Judgment upon the truth
and loyalty with which Theodore Roose-

velt has redeemed his promise. The
work of pacification and construction In
Cuba has been completed. Military gov
ernment had faithfully given effect to the
humane purposes of the American people.
With sincere kindness our officers had
helped the Cubans tc take steps necessary
to the establishment of their own consti
tutional covernment.
"Of all executive problems following in
the train of the Spanish "War, the prob
lem of the Philippines alone remained.
Success there had not then been demon
strated, and it was still possible that fail
ure mlcht lead the American people to
withdraw power from the Republicans'
hands. Accordingly, the Philippine policy
of the Administration was attacked."
The Secretary stated that In the early
months of 1899. when the course of the
United States tpward the Insurrection in
the Philippines had been ' determined,
there was no difference of opinion between
the two parties as to the duty of the Ad
ministration. Then he read a number of
editorials from the press throughout the
country, both Republican and Democratic,
showing there was only one thing to do,
and that was to conquer the forces of
'Agulnaldo.
Secretary Root said that, notwithstand
ing the insurrection, the business of the
Islands has flourished, andhas become
nearly double what it was under Spanish
rule. Then he spent some time in a de
nial ot the stories told by the Democratic
party during the insurrection. He gave
statistics as to the number of soldiers in
the islands, the losses by war and sick
ness, and then read a number of tele
grams captured with Agulnaldo and other
Generals. He then read a letter written
by Jose Rlzal, the greatest genius antf
most-revered patriot of the Philippines, in
which he pleaded with his people to sub
mit to American sovereignty as the only
way In which to gain their freedom. The
Secretary spent some time in telling of the
attacks made upon the Administration
by different members of the Senate and
House, and said:
"The whole Army and Its Generals were
involved In the common condemnation.
The gallant and fearless Funston was
stigmatized by the Senator from Tenhes
see as 'a blatherskite Brigadier.' 'J do
not know who General "Wheaton Is par
ticularly.' said the Senator from Idaho,
'but I Imagine he was a charity boy who
was appointed to West Point by some
Representative or Senator and educated

"Against the contemptuous and injuri
ous aspersions "upon the soldiers of the
United States. I will call four witnesses.
The first is William McKInley, who said:
'If any orders of mine were required to
Insure the merciful conduct of military
and naval operations, they would not be
lacking, but every step In the "progress of
our troops has been marked by that hu
manity which has surprised even the mis
guided Insurgents.' The second Is Presi
dent Schurman. and. Joining, him. Admiral
George Dewey and the other members of
the first Philippine Commission, who said:
" 'To those who derive satisfaction from
seeing isolated occurrences, regrettable
Indeed but Incident to every war, and
making them the basis of sweeping accu
sations, this commission has nothing to
say. Such wrongs as were actually com
mitted atrainst the natives-were likely to
be brought to our attention, and In every
ca3C that we Investigated we found a
willingness on the paTt- of those in au
thority to administer prompt Justice.'
"The third la Governor William H. Taft,
who says: 'I desire to say that It is my
deliberate judgment that there never was
a war conducted againct an Inferior race,
or others, In which there was more com
passion and restraint and more generosity
than, there has been In the Philippines.'
"The fourth Is VIcc-Governor Luke E.
"Wright, who ays: 'General Chaffee has
no patience with any acts of oppression or
cruelty, and whenever his attention has
been called to them he has at once taken
proper steps. The howl against the Army
has been made mainly for political pur
poses, and the cruelties practiced have
been largely exaggerated.' "

BOZEMAN, Mont., Sept. 24. The Demo

noon nominated Judge Jerre B. Leslie, of
Great Falls, for Associate Justice, and
John M. Evans, of Missoula, for Con
gressman. No other nominations are to
be made. Judge -Leslie, ex-Associate
Justice Robert Lee "Word, of Helena, and
Judge D. F. Smith, of Teton County, were
nominated. Judge Leslie winning; on the
-flfrst ballot. " - i
United States Senator W. A. Clark and
his friends had absolute control of the
convention today. Senator Clark presid
ed as temporary chairman when the con
vention opened. The committee on cre
dentials reported in favor of seating the
Clark delegations from Silver Bow and
Granite Counties, and the report was
adopted. State fier.ator Charles W. Hoff
man, of Bozemnn. a well-known support
er of Senator Clark, was made perman
ent chairman.
The platform pledges the party to a
"continuing loyalty to the principles of
the Democratic party as enunciated at
the National convention held at Kansas
City." It indorses the state administra
tion, and commends the action of the rep
resentatives in Congress on all public
questions. It approves the irrigation law,
favors legislation to prevent the immi
gration of the vicious, favors a Bpeedy
construction of the isthmian canal, favors
a strict enforcement of the Chinese ex
clusion, act, favors the throwing open of
Indian reservations not absolutely need
ful for the Indians to settlement, favors
the election of United States Senators by
the direct vote of the people, favors ac
tion by the State and National Legisla
tures that will more effectually prevent
forest "fires, and pledges the party to the
eight-hour law now on the statute books,
favors the assessment of railroad prop
erty for the purpose of taxation on the
same basis as other property, and com
mends the State Board of Equalization
for taking an Initial step in that direc
tion. The platform opposes the wielding of
political power by corporations,- and says
the cdnsolldatlon of the leading Tallway
systems and the formation of trusts and
pools requires stricter supervision by the
state and Federal governments, and "de
mands the exercise of such powers, and
tho imposition of such restrictions in the
control of railroads as will protect the
people from the dangerous- consolidation
of competing lines." Opposition Is de
clared to monopolies, and such tariff leg
islation Is favored as will provide ad
equate means to defray the expenses of

CAUCUS ENDS- IN FIGHT
CONNECTICUT DEMOCRATS INDULGE
IN FISTICUFFS.
Lively Battle Is Oh for Nomination
for Governor to Be Made by
Convention Today.
NEW HAVEN, Conn., Sept. 24. The
delegates to the Democratic state con
vention assembled hero tonight to trans
act business preliminary to the conven
tion proper tomorrow. The proceedings
of the night wound up with a fracas,
which developed In the New London
County caucus during a. debate Involv
ing the indorsement of one or the other
of two candidates for Governor. Hot
words, were followed by scuffles, and
then came fisticuffs. No one was seri
ously injured, but the caucus went to
pieces in a 'perfect pandemonium.
In addition to tho heat of the guberni
torlal canvass, thero were thrust Into the
situation tonight two other disturbing
elements. A large party of "Kansas City
Platform Democrats" had announced its
purpose to demand of the convention the
indorsement of the Kansas City plat
form, practically Insuring a repetition of
the recent Massachusetts contest. The
Economic League Association appeared
on the scene with demands for recogni
tion, not only of its policies, but of Its
recently .named candidates. These two
propositions were at variance with the
wishes of the state central committee
and the harmony-seeking wing of tho
party, and as a result the situation at
midnight was as confusing as it was un
promising. BOIES FILES HIS ACCEPTANCE.
"Will plaice Campaign for Hender
son's Place on Trusts and Tariff.
"WATERLOO, Ia., Sept. 24. Ex-Governor
Horace Boies today made public
his letter accepting the Democratic nom
ination for Congress in the Third Dis
trict, now represented by Speaker Hen
derson. The letter is devoted entirely to
the trusts and the tariff, and the only
adequate remedy for the evil with which
trusts are charged is declared to bo the
removal of the tariff' on trust-made prod
ucts. Ho declares the trust question to
be the most important that now agi
tates the public mind. Thevletter says
In part:
"Tho teachings of Democrats logically
lead them to believe that our protective
tariff system has made possible the or
ganization of these trusts, and as long
as It Is continued they also believe It
will furnish a defensive breastwork be
hind which they can find shelter from
every shaft that could reach a vital part.
"Tho futility of legislation other than
tariff reduction in restraint of such ac
tion, tho alleged methods of trusts, is to
them demonstrated by the fact that the
great bulk of our trusts have been open
ly organized In the face of anti-trust
laws carefully prepared and Incorporated
Into the statutes of the Nation and many
of the states."
ROOSEVELT'S OWN PLAN.
Tariff Commission "Was Not Favored
. by Oysier Bay Conference.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, "Wash
ington, Sept. 24. In advocating a tariff
commission,- the President did not follow
the- advice of the Senators who gathered
at the Oyster Bay conference, although
some d them may have consented to it,
as a means of postponing any tariff leg
islation for two or three years. Three
members of that conference are on the
Senate finance committee, and that com
mittee, ds'well as -the' ways' and means
committee of the "House, Is very jealous
of its prerogatives In the matter of tariff
legislation. It took the last tariff com
mission that; was appointed two -years to
make a report, and nothing was ever done
with it. The members of the committees
having in charge revenue legislation think
that they are as competent to handle the
tariff as any commission that might be
named. Few commissions dealing with'
domestic affairs have been successful.
The Industrial commission, was a costly
failure, and a tariff commission might not
be much better. There is disappointment
among close friends of the President that
he took this course, rather than suggest
ing that the next Congress be called to
act early In March.

crust.
Cut no matter what you call it, this skin
disease which comes in patches that burn.
Itch, discharge a watery matter, dry and
scale, owes its existence to trje presence of
humors in the system.
It will continue to exist, annoy, and per
haps agonize, as long as these humors
remain.
It Is always radically and permanently
cored by
Hood's Sarsaparilla
which expels all humors, and Is positively
unequalled for all cutaneous eruptions.

WORN OUT, DRAGGED OUT
Are Most Women In Summer Pe-ru-na Is a Tonic
of Efficiency,
Josephine Morris, 235 Carroll street,
Brooklyn, N. Y., writes:
"Peruna is a fine medicine to take any
time of the year, but I have found it es
pecially helpful to withstand the wear and
tear of the hot weather. I have taken It
now for two Summers and feel that It
has kept my system free from malaria,
and also kept me from having that worn
out, d ragged-out look which so many
women have.
"I, therefore, have-no hesitancy in say
ing that I think It is the finest tonic In
the world." Josephine Morris.
" Peruna Is frequently used as a mitiga
tion of the effects of hot weather. "What
a bath- Is'to the skin Peruna is to the
mucous membranes. Bathing keeps the
skin healthy, Peruna makes the mucous
membranes clean and healthy. "With the
skin and mucous membranes In good
working order, hot weather can be with
stood with very little suffering. -
Frequent bathing with an occasional
use of Peruna Is sure to mitigate the hor
rors of hot weather. Many ladles have
discovered that the depression of hot
weather and the rigors they havo been in
the habit of attributing to malaria quick
ly disappear when they use Peruna. This
13 why Peruna Is so popular with them.
Peruna provides clean mucous mem
branes, and tho clean mucous membranes
do the rest.

works Its curative actions for two rea
sons: (1) It reaches every diseased spot
from the orifice of the nose to the
depest part of the lnnsr and the
