HARRISBURG, Pa., Oct. 4. Presi
dent Roosevelt made a flying trip to
Harrisburg and York today, and in
each city he made a speech in the rain,
wearing a dark raincoat and light
rubbers. The President left Washing
ton in a special train this morning in
company with United States Senators
Penrose and Knox, of Pennsylvania,
and returned to the National capital
this evening. He enjoyed the trip im
mensely and, except for a slight
hoarseness, he did not suffer from the
rain.
At Harrisburg the President deliv
ered the oration at the dedication of
the beautiful new capitol, which has
just been completed at a cost of $13,
nno.OOl to take the place of the old
state house destroyed by fire in 1S97.
After his speech there the President
and other distinguished guests were
entertained by. Governor Pennypacker
at luncheon at the executive man
sion. Panic Scarcely Averted.
The crowd surged dangerously about
one rf the street corners, several
thousand persons being Involved in
the struggling mass. Matters assumed
such a stage that Colonel Joseph B.
Hutchinjonl.onyriajjr.. pf the Eighth
Regiment! . G. P., and chief of Har
risburg's police, rode Into the crowd
and with the aid of a squad of guards
men quieted the people and complete
order was restored.
Visits York County Fair.
The President left the mansion
shortly before 3 o-clock and was driven
to the union station, where he boarded
his special car for York. There he
visited the county fair grounds as the
guest of Congressman Lafean, of the
York district, and was driven around
the race track. Rain fell during the
drive and the Presidents face was
splattered with mud when he left his
carriage and mounted a small plat
form in tne grounds from which he
made his second speech.
The streets of York, over which the
party passed, were crowded with peo
ple and the President was given a
continuous ovation. At the conclusion
of his speech he was driven to a sta
tion in the suburbs, at which ho
boarded the train for Washington.
Governor Pennypacker introduced
. President Roosevelt. The President
spoke as follows:
Speech of the President.
The study of the great deeds of th pst
In of chief avail in so far as it Incites us to
srapple resolutely and effectively with the
problems of the present. We are. not now
menaced by foreign war. Our Union Is firmly
Fstablished. But earn generation has its spe
cial and serious difficulties, and we of this
generation hJiv to struggle with evils spring.
Ing from the very material success of which
we are so proud, from the very growth and
prosperity of which, with Justice, we boast.
gome of these evils can be grappled with
by private effort only; tor we never can afford
to lorget that in the last analysis the chief
factor in personal success, and, indeed la Na
tional greatness, must be the sturdy, self
reliant character of the individual citizen. But
many of these evils are of such a nature that
do private effort can avail against them.
These evils, therefore, must be grappled with
by Governmental action. In some cases this
Governmental action must be exercised by the
several states Individually. In yet others It
has. become increasingly evident that no effi
cient state action is possible, and that we need
through executive action, through legislation
ind through Judicial Interpretation and con
duction of law, to Increase the power of the
Federal Government.
Corporation Lawyers Obstruct Law.
If we fall thus to increase It, we 6how our
Impotence and leave ourselves at the mercy
of those ingenious tegal advisers of the hold
ers of vast corporate wealth, who. In the per
formance of what they regard as their duty,
and to serve the ends of their clients, invoke
the law at one time for the confounding of
their rivals, and at another time strive for
the nullification of the law in order that they
themselves may be left free to work their
unbridled will on these same rivals, or on
those who labor for them, or on the general
public. In the exercise of their profession
and in the service of their client these astute
lawyers strive to prevent the passage of effi
cient laws and strive to secure Judicial deter
minations of those that pass which shall
emasculate them. They do not invoke the
Constitution In order to compel the due ob
servance of law alike by rich and poor, by
great and email: on the contrary, they are
ceaselessly on the watch to. cry out that .the
Constitution Is violated whenever any effort is
made to invoke the aid of the National Gov
ernment, whether for the effieient regulation
of railroads, for the efficient supervision of
great corporations, or for efficiently securing
obedience to such a law as the Natvmal eight-,
hour law and similar so-called ''labor stat
ute. The doctrine they preach would make the
Constitution merely the shield of incompetence
and the excuse for Governmental paralysis;
they treat it as a Justification for refusing to
attempt the remedy of evil. Instead of as the
source of vital power necessary for the ex
istence of a mighty and ever-growing Nation.

though my belief Is that (here must be a wide

upon the states for the betterment of present

gratulate the people of the State of Penn
sylvania on what its Legislature, upon what
its government, has accomplished during this
present year. It Is a remarkable record or
achievement.
Through your Legislature you have abol
lshed passes; you have placed the offices of
the Secretary of the commonwealth and the
Insurance Commissioner upon an honorable
and honest basis of salary only by abolish
ing the fee system; you have passed a law
compelling the officers and employes of
great cities to attend to the duties for
which they are paid by all the taxpayers,
and to refrain from using the power con
ferred by their offices to Influence political
campaigns; you have prohibited the solicita
tion or receiving of political assessments by
city employes; you have by law protected
the state treasury from depredation and

in the public interest; you have by a law
for the protection of the elective franchise
made tampering with the ballot-boxes' and
the ctsting of- illegal votes so difficult as in
all probability to be unprofitable, you "nave
provided a primary election law which guar
antees to the voters free expression in the
selection of candidates for office; you have
by law regulated and Improved the civil
service system a of your greatest cities; ana.
finally, you nave passed a law containing a
provision which I most earnestly hope will
in substance be embodied likewise in a law
by the Congress at coming session a pro
vision prohibiting the officers of any cor
poration from making a contribution of the
money of that corporation to -any candidate
or any political committee for the payment
of any election expenses whatever.
Abolish Child Labor.
It is surely not too much to say that this
body of substantive legisl3.-:-" marks an
epemi" w 'tvirmv of -ti.e practical bet
terment of polltica.1 conditions, not merely
for your state, but for all our states. I do
not recall any other State Legislature which.,
in a similar length of time, has to its credit
such a body of admirable legislation. Let
me. however, most earnesly urge that your
Legislature continue this record of public
service by enacting one or two additional
laws. One subject which every good citizen
should have at heart above almost all
others Is the matter of child labor. Every
where the great growth of modern indus
trialism has been accompanied by abuses in
connection with the employment of labor
which have necessitated a complete change
in ten attitude of the state toward labor.
This Is above all true in connection with
the employment of child labor. In Pennsyl
vania you have made a beginning, but only
a beginning, in proper legislation and ad
ministration on this subject; the law must
if necessary be strengthened, and it must
be rigorously enforced. The National Gov
ernment can do but little in the matter of
child labor, though I earnestly hope that
that little will be permitted to be done by
Congress. The great bulk of the work, how
ever, must be left to the State Legislatures;
and if our State Legislatures would act as
drastically and yet as wisely on this sub
ject of child labor as Pennsylvania has act
ed within the present year as "regards the
subjects I have enumerated above, the gain
would be literally Incalculable; and one of
the most vital needs of modern American
life would at last be adequately met.
Wilson's Theory of Government.
So much for the state. Now for the Na
tion; and here I cannot do better than base
my theory of governmental action upon the
words and deeds of one of Pennsylvania's
greatest sons. Justice James Wilaon. Wilson's
earrer has been singularly overlooked for
many years, but I believe that more and more
it is now being adequately appreciated ; and
I congratulate your state upon the fact that
Wilson's body is to be taken away from where
it now rests and brought back to lie, as it
should, in Pennsylvania soil. He was a signer
of the Declaration of Independence- He vvas
one of the men who saw that the Revolution
in which he had served as a soldier, -would
be utterly fruitless unless it was followed by
a close and permanent union of the states;
and in the Constitutional convention and In.
securing the adoption of the Constitution and
expounding what it meant he rendered serv
ices even greater than he rendered as a mem
ber of the Continental Congress, which de
clared our independence; for it was the suc
cess of the makers and preservers of the.
Union which justified our independence.
He believed in the people with the faith
of Abraham Lincoln; and coupled with his
faith in the people he had what most of the
men who in his generation believed in the
people did not have; that is. the courage to
recognize the fact that faith in the people
amounted to nothing unless the representa
tives of the people assembled together in the
National Government were given full and com
plete power to work on behalf of the peoole.
He developed even before Marshall the doc
trine (absolutely essential not merely to the
efficiency, but to the existence of thia Nation)
that an inherent power rested in the Nation,
outside of the enumerated powers conferred
upon it by the Constitution, in all cases where
the object involved was beyond the power of
the several states and was a power ordinar
ily exercised by sovereign nations.
Gaps in Constitution.
In a remarkable letter in which he advo
cated setting forth in early and clear fash
ion the powers of the National Government,
he laid down the proposition that it should
be made clear that there were neither vacancies
nor interferences between the limits of state
and National jurisdiction, and that both juris
dictions togerher composed only one uniform
and comprehensive system of government and
laws; that is. whenever the states cannot
act, because the need to be met is not one
of merely a single locality, then the National
Government, representing all the people, should
have complete power to art. it was in the
spirit of Wilson that "Washington, and. Wash
ington's Lieutenant. Hamilton, acted; and it
was in the same spirit that Marshall con
strued the law.
It is only by acting in this spirit that the
National Judge legislators and executives can
give a satisfactory solution of the great ques-

BOSTON, Oct. 4. A new era for the
Massachusetts Democracy was Inaugu
rated today by the state convention of
that party, when after a turbulent strug
gle over endorsing William Jennings
Bryan and William K. Hearst, John B.
Moran, District Attorney for Suffolk
County, who was already the nominee of
the Prohibition party and the Independ
ence League, was nominated for Governor
by acclamation. Save in one possible
particular. Moran dominated the conven
tion completely. The old-time leaders.
Josiah Quincy, Congressman ojhn A.
Sullivan, Congressman William S. McNary
and the element represented by such
Democrats as Ex-Governor William L.
Douglas and Henry M. Whitney were
utterly powarlaas. .
Two of the candidates beside Mr. Moran
had been nominated by the Independence
League, Brown for Lieutenant-Governor
and Hisgen for Auditor. The entire ticket
was nominated by acclamation.
Platform Built for Moran.
The platform adopted was prolific In
demands for reform, and centered largely
in the changes in the law which have
been strongly favored by Moran during
his service as District Attorney and in
hjs declaration of principles when he an
nounced his candidacy for Governor. The
resolutions held that it was Democracy's

duty "to wrest the government from the
grasp of powerful hypocrites, who have
posed as custodians of the National honor
and who have drained mighty fortunes
through the vile channels of theler mo
nopoly, frauds, thefts, poisonings and
violence."
Finally, the platform endorses the lead
ership and Democracy of both Bryan and
Hearst. The endorsement of Hearst's
Democracy and of his leadership in New
York was the first rock on which the con
vention split. Neither Bryn nor Hearst
was supported for the next Presidential
nomination in the platform, but both
were praised.
Hiss Hearst, Cheer Bryan.
The Bryan paragraph was greeted with
cheers and handclapping and a general
demonstration which lasted more than a
minute, but, when the first words of the
Hearst tribute was reached, there were
hisses and cries of "No, No," and "Bryan
only!"
Then the Hearst supporters, given new

vigor by the memory that the Hearst In
dependence League had endorsed Moran
for Governor, almost drowned out the
Bryan delegates.
The voice vote on the question of adopt
ing the platform as read was a roar
rather than a chorus of ayes and noes.
The vote was doubted and upon a rising
vote being taken the chair declared the
resolution adopted.
Professor Clark, of Williams College, a
delegate, protested against the Hearst
plank and after many interruptions suc
ceeded In moving that the resolutions be
reconsidered. On the first test of strength
over the Hearst plank, there was a defeat
for the Hearst supporters. A motion to
lay the motion n the table was defeated,
though by a clofce margin.
On the question of reconsideration there
was a vigorous debate. Congressman
Sullivan hoped that the convention would
"strike from the platform a plank which
never would be accepted by the Demo
crats of Massachusetts as a true expres
sion of their opinon."
The chair declared that the motion
to reconsider was lost, and ignored many
protesting delegates who doubted the
vote.
The convention was disrupted a second
time over the endorsement of Bryan for

Cuban Correspondence Sheds

WASHINGTON, Oct. 4. Important
facts in connection with American in
tervention in Cuba are brought to light
through the correspondence leading up
to that event between Consul-General
Steinhart at Havana and Acting Secre
tary Bacon, of the State Department,
which was made public by Secretary
Root today. The communications show
that the Cubans asked for intervention
as long ago as September 8, repeating
their request several times, and that as
long ago as September 14 President
Palma had decided to resign as Presi
dent of the republic. Instead of inter
vention being thrust upon Cuba by
President Roosevelt, it Is clearly dem
onstrated that the Government con
sented to act only after repeated re
quests. In his dispatch of September 8, Con-
sul-General Steinhart communicates
the request of Senor Parma that two
American vessels be sent at once to
Cuba, as the Government was unable
to quell the rebellion. It is added that
the Cuban Congress wil be convened
and ask intervention. The message
was followed two days later by a dis
patch expressing anxiety because no
reply had been received-
Bacon Staves Off Intervention.
"President Palma should be In
formed," wired Mr. Bacon in reply.
that, in the public opinion here, it
would have a most damaging effect for
intervention to be undertaken until
the Cuban government has exhausted
every effort in a serious attempt to put
down the insurrection and has made
this fact known to the world." It Is
added that, until every effort has been
made In Cuba, the Government will not
consider intervention at all, but that
two vessels would be sent.
The reply of the same day asks that
the vessels be allowed to remain to
give security to foreigners, and asserts
that the Cuban Congress will suggest
the kind of intervention desired.
"Palma applies public funds in public
works and public education, but not in
the purchase of war material." he said.
"Insurgents for a considerable time
prepared for present conditions; hence
the government's apparent weakness at
the commencement."
On September 11, the day the Des
Moines was ordered to Cuba, a reply to
Mr. Steinhart was sent by Mr. Bacon,
a portion of which follows:
The President believes actual intervention to
be out of the question. We are considerinc,
however, and would like your opinion as to
whether or not to send a word of emphatic
warning as to the certainty that Intervention
will come in the end, unless the people of
Cuba, for the sake of their country, find some
wav to settle their difficulties.
In a message of the following day. Mr.
Stelnhardt says that "President Palma
asks for American intervention and begs
President Roosevelt to send to Havana

with the greatest secrecy and rapidity
2000 or 3000 men to avoid any catastrophe
in the capital. The situation Is grave
and any delay may produce a massacre
of citizens in Havana." This message
was received on the day that the Denver
and Marietta were ordered to Cuba.
Palma Resolves to Resign.
On September 13 Mr. Bacon received
a dispatch which told of the irrevocable
intention of President Palma to resign
and to turn over the government to an
appointee of President Roosevelt In
order to prevent complete anarchy. It is
added that It may be necessary to land
a forc-5 o protect American property
This message was sent upon the day
that American marines first landed la
Cuba,, but were ordered back to the ves
sels by Secretary Bonaparte. On the day
following It was announced that Secre
taries Taft and Bacon would be sent to
Cuba, and' upon that same day a message
was received saying that the Cuban Con
gress could not meet for lack of a leader,
neither the President nor Vice-President
being willing to retain their office.
XEWS AMAZING TO CUBANS.
Palma's Early Request for Interven
tion Surprises Them.
HAVANA, Oct. 4 That ex-President
Palma early In September asked for
American Interference In the Interest of
foreign lives and property is not con
sidered surprising here. In view of his
subsequent request to Mr. Sleeper, the
American Charge, and Commander John
C. Colwell, of the cruiser Denver. But
that he suggested calling Congress to
aak for American intervention as early
as September 8 is considered surprising
and that on September 13 he officially
asked for intervention and had then Irre
vocably decided to resign causes amaze
ment. .
The correspondence between the State
Department and Consul-General 9teln
hart in connection with Cuban Interven
tion reveals the truth of the rumors
current here at the time, which were
persistently denied at the palace. Palma
declining to speak of intervention.
Had this correspondence not been pub
lished, the Impression would have con
tinued here that Senor Palma yielded to
intervention only after Messrs. Taft and
Baccn had found It impossible to recon
cile the Cuban differences. Secretary
Root's assertion about giving the repub
lic another trial Is regarded, in view of
the present outlook, as idealistic rather
than practical.
CUBANS TALK OF ANNEXATION
Propose Plebiscite to Decide Fun-
6 ton Helps Disarmament.
HAVANA, Oct. 4. Now that the dis
armament of her revolutionists and
the government volunteers is progress
ing steadily, the thoughtful portions
of thf public of all nationalities are
animatedly discussing the possibilities
of Cuba's future form of government.
The desire for annexation, which has
been carefully concealed for the past
four years, is now voiced openly and
the wish that the United States re
tain actual control In Cuban affairs
is heard more Insistently than ever.
Representatives of leading elements,
both Cuban and foreign, have been
asked to attend a meeting to discuss
the feasibility of holding, some sort
of plebiscite by which all classes of
the population would be able to ex
press their ideas on what the future
form of government should be. One
plan suggested is the formation Into
gToups of the various foreign ele
ments, each' of which will formulate
Its own project of government.
The idea of holding the next elec
tions in January has been entirely
abandoned, Cubans generally appear
ing to favor elections in June. The
