TAFT PLEADS FOR
SMITH'S SUPPORT
Tells Voters at Chattanooga
Their Interests Lie With
Republican Party.
HELD BACK BY TRADITON
Eloquent nad Ijoloal Plea of Candi
date Wins Him Warm Ap
plause in Eleven Cities
ol Tennessee.
BRISTOL Tenn.. Oct. 1. "William H.
Taft struck the keynote for his party at
Chattanooga thla morning. Throughout
the day. which was spent in traversing
the state, he followed the same line of
argument, and met with the same hearty
response. Mr. Taft emphasized this
argument:
With the material interests of the
South dependent upon continuance of Re
publican policies; with nothing but his
toric tradition demanding its people to
vote tho Democratic ticket praying
meanwhile for the success of Republican
ism; with Southern Democracy nothing
but a tail to Northern Democracy's kite,
then why not now take the first polictlcal
cold plunge, go politically where the ma
terial interests of the country demand
and vote the Republican ticket?"
Speerhes in Big Demand.
SV great was the demand for the can
didate that his Itinerary of four stops in
the state was Increased to eleven. He
spoke during the day and evening at
Chattanooga. Cleveland. Athens. Sweet
water. Ixmdon. Len'or City. Knoxville.
Morristown. Greenville. Johnson City and
Bristol. "With an all-night run he will
reach Salisbury. N. C, tomorrow morn
ing, and Richmond. Va., tomorrow night.
Chattanora. Knoxville and Bristol
giive the candidate the big demonstrations
of the day. He reached Knoxville at 1
o'clock and remained an hour. Tonight
at Bristol he addressed a large audience
in the Chautauqua Tabernacle.
Receives Warm Welcome.
In Tennessee, as in other states the
candidate has visited, he received the
cordial backing of all factions of the
party.
The candidate was met at Chattanooga
by a largo reception committee, upon
which it was said were as many Demo
crats as Republicans. Mr. Taft's
reception here was characterized by the
extreme cordiality for which the South
is noted.
Judse Taft. who was introduced with
w.irm words of praise by H. Clay
Kvans. was in a particularly happy
moon. He told of ils excursion to the
South when on the bench, and con
tinuing said:
Displays Sense of Humor.
"When I knew you before. I was en
gaged In. tiie respectable business of
trying to administer Justice. I have
fallen from that estate now and I am
now enlaced In running for the Presi
dency, and it seems to me that with
the interest I have always had In the
South it was only proper I should
come here and as a candidate for the
ITesiilency on the Republican ticket
express by my presence and what I
mistht say here my interest in bringing
ahruit such a result as will more
closely unite the sections than they
have been united.
"It is quite possible that we may not
get a single electoral vote in the South.
I think we will get enough without, but
nothing would gratify me more than if I
t-otild enter the Presidential chair with
the feeling that In the electoral vote that
put me there was the vote of Tennessee
and Kentucky.
Kealizes All Difficulties.
"We n!I know the history of the coun
try and we know the natural results of
the war. We know how the South was
ranged on the side of the Democratic
party. We know Ms natural conserva
tive tendency. We know the homogene
ous character of Us people, the preser
vation of traditions of the family.
"Whv. I remember when I went to
Nashville and got into the families of
some of the lawyers there. They were
tellmc and enjoying the jokes, the foren
sic Jokes and repartee and forcible ar
guments that had been uttered 50. 60
and 70 years ago by the leaders of the
bar. That would not be possible north
of the Ohio River, because we have
hanged so that our family recollections
don't go back that far.
"S. it is entirely natural that even
after all reasons have disappeared
tho intelligent Southern people should
vote the Democratic ticket and go on
voting it Just to preserve Jhe historic
traditions.
I am here to see if we cannot make a
beginning of disturbing that tradition and
relegating it to the place where useless
traditions ought to be. The enormous in
dustrial expunsion of the South which
has taken place since 1895. and largely
under the auspices of the Republican ad
ministrations, ought, it seems to me. to
demonstrate to the thoughtful men of the
South tl at then- logical position is in the
party winch makes such prosperity pos
sible. "There are a great many men in the
South and doubtless many within the
sound of my voice who are strictly Dem
(MTiit!o. They are to he divided into three
classes. The first class is going to vote
for me. The second class is not going
to vote at ali. And the third class is
goinc to vote for my opponent and yet
' hope I will be elected. I think, my
friends that you know, as I know, that
is a fair statement. So I have come here
tti if I cannot convince the two latter
c'.as-'s that what they ought to do is to
coin- ritiiit out and just take their first
void hath in loavlng historic traditions
that are naturally dear to their heart and
come richt into the party whose princi
ples they approve."'
Good Results of War.
O ie of the things that brought the
North and South cUsely together was the
Snanish War. There, for tiie first time
after the t'ivu War. we were able to dem
onstrate how close our hearts were across
the Ohio River and the Mason and Dixon
line, by a rush to uphold the flag of our
country in freeing Cuba and in maintain
ing the authority of the flag the country
over.
"My feeling aiways has been perhaps I
hive misconstrued the people of the South
m,t my feelings always have been that
the sympathies and the interest of the
South were largely with the Republican
policy in regard to Cuba. In regard to
l'orto Rico, and in regard to the Philip
pines, lly personal experience in the
Philippines makes me think that there
was as great an Interest In the success
of that experiment In the South as there
was In the North.
It is true that there was a good deal of
eloquence hurled at us from the floor of
the Senate and House as to the awful
things we were doing in the Philippines
and the libertv we were sacrificing, but
when we called upon the South to fur
nish her quota of men who were to figjt
the country's battles over there, who
were to make part of the efficient gov
ernment over there, we did not find the
South wanting, and I am glad to be able
to see that in the service in the Phil
ippines and in the selection of men to
represent America there In that govern
ment, we have never paid the slightest
heed to state lines.
Democrats Are Honored.
"We have as many Democrats in the
Philippine service today as we have
Republicans, and we have as many
Southern men as we have Northern
men. Your own General Wright, of
Tennessee, was Governor. nd made a
fine Governor there. The present Gov
ernor, Smith, is a Democrat, from Cali
fornia. Governor Ide and I are on the
other side and are Republicans, but
we did not know any difference out
there, and the pleasure of dealing with
a government in which there was no
difference and In which no sectional
lines were recognized is what makes
me long for a similar condition in this
country.
Asks Blunt Question.
"Are you going to vote the same way
you have heretofore and pray for Re
publican success, or are you going to
assume some sort of responsibility with
reference to the National Government?
(Voice: 'Vote for Taft. ) That is an
interruption that somehow does not
ruffle me.
"Senator Daniels and Senator Bacon,
both distinguished Senators on the floor
of that body, deplored the fact that the
South has had no representation in the
last 20 or 30 years in the councils of the
Government, Well. I thin that is true,
and I Join with them in deploring it, but
perhaps we might differ as to the reason
for It. I think it can be demonstrated
that the reason for it is that heretofore
the South, by this historic tradition, has
exhausted its reasons altogether, has in
sisted on voting one way and praying the
other, and then making itself an Instru
ment of the Northern Democracy, no
matter to what excess In economic doc
trines that Democracy may go.
Tail of Northern Kite.
"They have been the tail to the
Northern Democratic kite and when
you are carried in the pocket of a man
and make no uncomfortable disturb
ance in that pocket you are not going
to exercise 'very much Influence with
the gentleman that carries you. Fur
nishing no electoral votes and sub
stantially but little Congressional sup
port to a Republican Administration.
It is not human nature that your lead
ing men should have Influence with
Republican Administrations.
"What I am hopeful for is that the
gentlemen who really sympathize with
us will come over, will swell the pres
ent Republican party to a size that
shall give us the electoral vote, and
that the Republicans of the South, as
Republicans, shall come into the Ad
ministration and have that Influence
and power that the South is entitled
to have by reason of the intelligence
of its people,"
FAIRBANKS TALKS IX GOTHAM
Makes Round of Rallies and Dis
cusses Variety of Topics.
NEW YORK. Oct, 16. In a round of
Republican rallies held In widely sepa
rated sections of this city, Vice-President
Fairbanks addressed enthusiastic
audiences aggregating many thousands
of persons, and ran the gamut of Re
publican achievements during the per
iod when the policies at issue in this
campaign were in process of formula
tion and execution.
In his Grand-street address. Mr.
Fairbanks spoke on the tariff, warning
his hearers that they might expect the
overthrow of the protective system,
under which the country had attained
Its greatest measure of prosperity, if
the Democratic party was returned to
power.
Speeding northward in an automobile,
tiie Vice-President discussed the cur
rency at Turner Hall, on Eighty-fifth
street, pointing to the necessity for fur
ther monetary legislation and the im
portance of choosing for the task of
shaping such legislation men identified
with the party which, he said, was re
sponsible for practically every sound
monetary measure enacted since the
Civil War.
In a speech in Harlem. Mr. Fairbanks
took up tho trust question, answering
the complaint of those who pointed to
the comparatively small number of Fed
eral prosecutions under the anti-trust
laws.
In another speech the Vice-President
asked his hearers not to lose sight of
the paramount importance of electing
a Republican House of Representatives
to uphold the hands of a Republican
National administration.
Mr. Fairbanks was given an enthus
iastic reception at every point of hia
tour of the city. His automobile had
to make fast time between meetings to
enable him to keep up with his sched
ule, but he filled all his engagements
and was in good speaking voice on
each of the many platforms he oc
cupied. Taft to Consult Roosevelt.
NORFOLK. Va., Oct. Hi. Following his
Richmond speech tonight. Mr. Taft will
go to Washington for a conference with
President Roosevelt at the White House

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 16. (Special.)
Harry Sutor and Oscar Jones, com
bined, couldn't head off the Beavers
today. The Northerners took an early
lead, thanks to the speedily developed
lack of control on the part of the two
San Francisco twirlers. and although
the Portland men piled up errors
toward the close of the session, the
Seals were lucky to get two tallies,
and the session closed 4 to 2 against
them. Graney pitched a good game
for the Northern aggregation, and
with better support would have shut
out the third-place team.
Sutor lasted a little more than two
innrhgs. Right oft the reel, Casey and
Cooney picked singles off Sutor and
Johnson followed with a walk. A two
bagger Just over the initial sack by
Danzig scored both men. In the third,
with one down, Sutor walked Danzig
and Ryan. Jones stepped to the front
and walked Bassey. Madden forced
Bassey. but scored Danzig on the play
and then a double steal scored Ryan.
The two scores that were made by
San Francisco came to them In the
seventh. Beck reached first on Mad
den's fumble. Berry hit to center, and,
although McArdle fanned, a poor throw
by Madden to first put Beck across
the bases. With Jones out, Mohler hit
to the clubhouse for two bags and
Berry was chased across the pan.

vents a Decision.
NEW YORK, Oct. 16 After an absence
of four years from the ring, "Kid" Mc
Coy reappeared here tonight at the Na
tional Athletic Club and easily defeated
Jim Stewart, of Brooklyn, in a six-round
bout. McCoy's last- ring match was a
20-round decision over Jack Sullivan at
Los Angeles, in October, 1904.
Not since the days before the repeal of
the Horton law has such a representative
gathering of sporting men been seen at
a boxing exhibition in this city. Every
one of the onlookers was anxious to see
whether the old McCoy had come back or
if the Brooklynlte", who had heavyweight
championship aspirations, could fill the
bill.
McCoy was greeted with cheers as he
Jumped into the ring. Stewart seemed to
be terrified from the outset of the bout
and a hard left smash on the chin whlqh
sent him to the floor in the opening
round, took all the steam out of him.
McCoy weighed about 168 pounds, fully
40 pounds less than the Brooklyn man.
While McCoy did not look anything like
hie former self, he showed wonderful
ability in footwork and his sparring and
feinting were as clever as ever.
McCoy forced the fighting allthe way.
and in only one round, the fourth, did
Stewart have - anything like an even
break. It wasva case of McCoy every
where with forcing tactics and the big
man backing away continuously.
The law doesnot permit of a decision
being rendered, but there can be no doubt
as to who' was the winner.

in this country, was without foundation.
He argued at length to show that what
are called panics are merely periods of
settlements, which come about every
10 or 15 years in every country. He
referred to the several periods of finan
cial depressions in this country as set
tlement periods, and that, after all,
more of them occurred under Republi
can Presidents than under Democratic.
Mr. Miller urged' the guaranty of bank
deposits as one of the mostimportant
planks in the Democratic platform and
declared it a sound principle, under
which no "wild-cat" banking could be
done. He also discussed the tariff and
declared there were no free traders in
the country, in the real sense, but that

SELLWOOD, Oct. 16. (To the Editor.)
This morning's Oregonlan has a notice from
a Tom Sladden, claiming some authority from
the Socialise of this city wherein he at
tempts to read me out of the Socialist party.
This fellow is a combination of Malvolio's
vanity, Parroles1 bragpadocio and Thersites
obscene ecurriiity. "A trunk inheriting
slave, an eater of broken meats." etc.
you will find the rest In King Lear. He
employed himself honestly In the blacksmith
business tilt, bis head swelling with Imag
inary importance, he took to scribbling abu.se
of every oive who differed with his' peculiari
ties. I am surprised that any one on The
Orgonlan should handle his stuff even with
a pair of tongs. He has no standing In the
Socialist party in the state and it's only a
question of a little time till his occupation of
villificatlon will be gone, then he will be
compelled to do honest labor again. I am
a SocialiM and have been- since 1SH9. I or
ganized the first branch of the party in the
state and have always been rerogniied ani
called on to speak and write for it. My
address in the White Temple on Wednesday
evening last and the votes Iebs received
show what standing I have '"pg.g
