Defends Gompers and Warns
Laborers Not to Be
Coerced.
GETS SALUTE WITH APRONS
Wildly Cheered In Mining Towns
Where Women Wave Aprons to
Him Preparing Answer to
Roosevelt's Letter.
H IX TON. W. Va., Oct. 22. Enthusias
tically received ever' where, W. J.
Brvan today carried his warfare Into
West Virginia. The line of travel took
him through the Kanawha and New
River Valleys, and he was afforded an
opportunity to speak to many farmers
and miners. Having but four hours"
rest after his campaign in Ohio yes
terday, he was out on the platform as
early as 7 o"cloek, talking to farmers.
Passing on into the coal district, he
devoted much attention to the labor
question, and. while not specifically re
ferring to President Roosevelt's letter,
entered a defense of President Samuel
Gompers. of the American Federation
of Labor. He repeated his warning to
laboring men not to be coerced by their
employers Into voting against their
will.
Has Ronslny Receptions.
The most notable demonstration ac
corded him was at Charleston. He was
escorted through the streets by a num
ber of uniformed marching clubs head
ed by bands, while almost every build
ing was decorated with flags and bunt
ing. From the moment he left his spe
cial train across the river until he
reached the platform on a lot across
from the Courthouse, he was wildly
cheered. His speech was devoted to a
general discussion of the Issues of the
campaign.
At Thurmond he got a rousing recep
tion. A picturesque feature of the stop
here was the erection of a grandstand
up the side of a mountain, having a
background of an immense banner with
a portrait of the candidate, over which
were the words "Shall the people rule?"
Will Win by "Apron Wave."
He spoke of the fact that In most of
the mining or Industrial centers where
he had spoken he noticed women
standing along the streets waving
their aprons.
"I am of the opinion." he said, "that.
If I do not go in on a tidal wave this
time, I surely shall go in on an apron
wave."
Early this morning Mr. Bryan was
handed a copy of a newspaper contain
ing Mr. Roosevelt's criticism of him
self and Mr. Gompers concerning his
position with reference to the labor
question. Shortly afterward he began
the preparation of a reply, but his time
was so taken up during the day that
he found it Impossible to complete it.
Mr. Bryan left heTe for New York at
10:35 o'clock.
BEGINS TALKING AT SUNRISE
Bryan Tells Farmers Republicans
Legislate for Wall Street.
RAVEXSWOOD, W. Va.. Oct. 22.
Although ho did not retire until t
o'clock this morning, a half hour af
ter making his last speech. 'William
J. Bryan was up at sunrise and a
short time afterwards was speaking
to a large crowd here. As most of
his auditors were farmers, he proceeded
to puncture the Republican contention,
which he said was that the farmer
owed his prosperity to the Republican
party.
"I can prove to you." he said, "that
the Republican party has nothing to
do with fertility of soli or sunshine
or rain, for, if It did. then there
would be a trust on sunshine and a
meter upon the sun. The fact that
these things are not monopolies Is
roncluslve proof that the Republican
leaders exercise no control over them."
At Mason City, Mr. Bryan got a
warm welcome. The representation
from this city was augmented by a
number of the Inhabitants of Pomeroy,
Ohio, on the opposite side of the river.
He gave a hurried explanation of the
differences between the platforms of
the two dominant parties and asserted
that the Republican party, driven to
extremes, was now making excuses.
OFFERS REPLY TO ROOSEVELT
Bryan Says Republicans Recognize
Loss of Labor Vote.
ST. ALBANS. W. Va.. Oct. 22. W. J.
Bryan. In a brief speech here today, made
reference to the li tter of President Roose
velt puUlished today. In which the Presi
dent criticised the position of Mr. Bryan
and Mr. Gompers on the labor question.
The Democratic candidate was explain
ing the things which he said the Republi
can platform did not promise to do, and,
touching on the labor question, he said:
"The Republican platform does not
promise a reconciliation of labor and cap
ital. In fact, they now recognise that
tnelr antagonism of Uibor organizations
l:as lost them the labor vote, and they
recognise that so fully that they have en
tered upon the denunciation of the man
who stands at the head of the labor or
ganizations, and are today trying to show
that he does not represent the men who
elected him to office and who have been
Indorsing the position he has taken In this
campaign."
HUGHES GAINS IN FIGHT
(Continued from First rase
through the Legislature, there by driving
many thousands of touts and bookmakers
out of office and curtailing "personal
liberty." That the Public sen-Ice Com
missions, resulting from legislation he
urged, have been useless, needlessly ex
pensive and antagonistic to the people.
That by vetoing the 6-cents-to-Coney
Inland bill he supported the corporations
as against the passengers, and thereby
gained the enmity of many thousands of
citizens In Greater New York. That his
veto of the J-cents-a-mtle railroad rate
law was another piece of corporation leg
islation. That he is narrow and bigoted,
and seeks to force a prohibition law on
the statute books, although he has never
said a word, one way or the other, on the
subject. That he does not accept sug
gestions from partv leaders, and ignors
Republicans very often when he makes
appointments, and seemingly holds him
self above the Republican organization
th.-.t elected Mm This last count Is the
contribution of Barnes, Woodruff. et al.
Opposition Shown.
Nobody can deny the existence In
Greater New York of a bitter, loud-voiced
opposition to Governor Hughes. Ton will
find it In the hotels along Broadway, In
saloons all over town and among the men
who frequented the poolrooms and race
tracks in the days before a stop was put
to betting.
V.'e will beat him by over 300.000 votes"
is the threat you hear on every side. To
hear them talk one would b-lieve that
every man, woman and child in Greater
New York is anxious to see the Governor
humiliated. They fail to take into con
sideration the fact that New York State
Is not bounded on the north by the
Harlem River, and that Hughes has a
good many supporters and not all of
them are Republicans.
That the . Democrats realize the
strength of the "morality Issue" Is dem
onstrated by the careful way In which
Lewis Stuyvesant Chanler. candidate .for
Governor, carefully sidesteps any state
ment as to his position.
Mr. Chanler declares that if he is
elected he will "enforce all the laws for
all the people." but he absolutely de
clines to reply to these queries, pro
pounded by Governor Hughes on the
stump.
Refuses to Reply.
"If you are elected Governor. wlU you
favor a repeal of the Hart-Agnew bill,
which prohibits betting at the race
tracks?. If you are elected Governor,
will you favor a repeal of the act estab
lishing the Public Service Commission?"
The only attention Mr. Chanler has paid
. . v. .-tr. ia t n Hnriare. that they
are impertinent. But he does not reply to
them, and as they are repeated and re
Iterated by Hughes, day after day. the
voters are beginning to show an Interest
in the case.
These two propositions, everybody ad
mits, were the main features of Hughes'
administration. If they are good laws,
Hughes deserves to be commended. If
they are foolish legislation, why is Chan
ler afraid to say that he will do his best
to upset these nets?
Chanler has made a popular impression
on the stump, although he is very far
from being an orator. He has traveled
all over the state in day coaches, carry
ing a briarwood pipe, whereat the Demo
cratic orators declare he Is one of the
common people, and deserving of support.
The burden of Hughes' speeches has
been this: "If I have been a good Gov
ernor, I deserve re-election. If I have
been a bad Governor, it le up to the op
position to state In what matters I have
failed," and up to date the Democrats
have not made reply.
New York City Not All.
Supporters of the Governor point out
the fact that New York City Is not even
one-half of the Empire State, and that
the elections are generally decided above
the Bronx. Even In 1901, when "Parker
was defeated by acclamation, to quote
a Democrat at the Denver convention.
the popular President failed to carry the
greater city, although his majority in
the state exceeded 175,000.
Two years later Hughes was elected by
57.S01. The registration In 1!06 showed a
falling off of 103,407 from the previous
Presidential year, and it is a peculiar
fact that this was about the difference
between the majorities secured by the
two candidates.
The completed registration reports in
dlcate that the vote this year will be
about the same as In 1904, up-state In
creases about wiping out the 29.000 loss
In New York City. It Is up to the rural
districts to elect or defeat Chanler, and
that the Democrats realize this is demon
strated by the frantic efforts they have
made to stir up Chanler sentiment In
the country.
Hearst carried Greater New Yeck two
years ago bv 77,101. Despite a strong
labor union support he lost the up-state
counties by 134.99S, which made the ma
jority against him 57.897.
Hughes Making Progress.
"When Chanler ran for Lieutenant-Governor,
he had the support of a united
Democracy, many anti-organization Re
publicans and the Independence League.
He received 366.S47 votes In the greater
city to 227.660 for Bruce, the Republican,
or a plurality of 139.19". This year he
will gain the "Personal Liberty" Repub
licans, but will lose some Democrats, all
the Hughes Republicans and every vote
that Mr. Hearst's party can control, and
unless he increases his city plurality, he
will probably be defeated.
This Is the situation as it exists at
present, although Hughes Is plugging
along, and will continue to do eo until
election day. The Increased registration.
It is admitted, is larprely Republican. If
Chanler can gain 75,000 more votes than
he loses, he will be the next Governor of
New York State.
But it Isn't an easy proposition, either
on paper or In actual practice, for thjre
are a good many old-time Democrats,
like ex-Lieutenant-Governor Edward F.
Jones, of Binghampton, who are working
to re-elect Charles Evans Hughes.
LAND LOTTERY CLOSES
Ticket Number 6000 Brawn In
Tripp County Contest.
DALLAS. S. D., Oct. 22. The drawing
for farms in the great Tripp County dis
trict was finished today when the number
of 6000 was reached. This morning
Judge TVItten and his clerks began the
work of assorting the 10S.O0O unlucky ap
plications and comparing them with those
which drew prizes In order to detect any
applicants who had registered twice. If
any are found among the prize winners,
they will be barred from filing.
Last night and today the work of mov
ing the "rush" buildings which have lined
Main street for the past three weeks, to
the new townsite In Tripp County, made
a unique spectacle. The buildings are on
wheels and eight, horses were hitched to
each and a forced march over the prairies
began, each owner Intent upon securing
the beet location in the town of hie
choice. It is estimated that participation
In the lottery cost the land-seekers not
less than J2.0OO.O0O.

Held, the American Ambassador, unveiled
a tablet In this city today in memory of
Edmund Burke, the English statesman
and orator. The tablet had been set
upon the house where Burke lived In
Bath.
Subsequent to the unveiling ceremoniee,
Mr. Reld made a long address In which
he declared that the highest, the most

HOT- WORDS EXCHANGED
Bryan's Relative Brings Faction
Against Church to Terms" by
Threatening Ostracism if
Fight Is Prolonged.
OMAHA, Neb.. Oct. 22. (Special.)
William J. Bryan. Democratic candidate
for President, has succeeded in putting:
an end to the fight of exUnlted States
Senator Dubois on the Mormon Church
In Idaho, according to a dispatch which
will be printed in the Omaha Bee Fri
day morning:. The dispatch says that
Thomas S. Allen, chairman of the Ne
braska state central committee, and
brother-in-law of Bryan, recently made
a trip to Boise incognito and conferred
with the Democratic leaders with the
result that the flffht has been stopped
and the Idaho Scimitar, Senator Dubois'
paper, which has fought the Mormon
Church bitterly, has suddenly sus
pended. Uses Assumed Name.
Alien, according to the dispatch, went
'to Boise September 23 and registered at
the Idanha Hotel as "J. L. Smith, Kan
sas City." He was met by Democratic
leaders with whom he conferred for
two days. His mission was particu
larly with the Dubois or anti-Mormon
wing of the party, and he was pre
pared with patronage to stop the fight
which this wing of the part;' has been
making on the Mormon Church.
Ex-Senator Dubois was put severely
on the rack, It Is stated, and those as
sociated with him were told they might
expect nothing If they consented to
keeping up the fight. Hot words were
exchanged, it Is said, and the former
Senator took Allen to task for taking
a hand in Idaho local politics.
Paper Suspends.
It is. stated, however, that Allen's
counsel prevailed and the following
week the Idaho Scimitar, which has
fought the church since it began pub
lication, suspended. The announcement
was made by the Senator that the sus
pension was caused by a lack of funds,
and that he still adhered to the stand
against the church he has always ad
vocated. Mr. Allen left Boise October 1.

WAR ON POWDER COMBINE
(Continued from First Page.)
Is the programme of the Eukrlneon de
was preparing to defend myself against
the powder trust."
Killed Off Indiana Company.
Mr. Waddell told of fights which were
made by his company aga-inst tho In
diana Powder Company and the South
ern Powder Company-. The Indiana
company, which was formed In 1897,
had Ohio. Kentucky. Michigan, West
Virginia and one or two other states for
its market. He was directed by Eugeno
Dupont and F. W. Owen to go to Terre
Haute and open the fight against the
Indiana company. There he met the
chief 'officers of the company.
"I told them that they had reduced
the sales of our companies 50.000 to 70,
000 kegs of powder In the territory they
occupied," said he, "and that we could
not stand for that, but would fight to
regain the trade. I promised that the
Indiana company be , organized with
J100.000 capital, of which the Hazard
Powder Company should take 61 per
cent and the other stockholders 49 per
cent. But they refused to enter into
any agreement. They said that they
thought they had a perfect right to
manufacture powdere for their mines;
that they wanted to be friendly with us
and hoped there would not be any
fight.- I told them that we would put
up mills near them and begin the fight
by underselling them to their own trade."
Mr. Waddell then told of the organi
zation of the Great Northern Supply
Company to sell not only powder, but
shovels, picks and supplies and of the
employment of two men named Ramsay
and Backus to go among the miners to
stir up .dissensions between the miners
and the operators' association. These
men made speeches at the miners'
meetings. The fight lasted until Janu
ary. 1902, when the Indiana company
went under and sold out to the pool.
Fixed Freight Rates to Suit.
The Southern Powder Company -was
organized in Birmingham, Ala., and
its business was restricted to Birming
ham and vicinity. '
"We fixed it so that they could not
gret out," said Mr. Waddell.
"How did you fix it?"
'Well, we got freight rates syste
matized on ail the railroads of Bir
mingham. Vre fixed these rates so
thiat powder would never be .more
than 70 cents a keg, or less than
cost, and then awaited developments."
"How long did you have to wait?"
asked Mr. Scarlett.
"It was perhaps a year before they
decided," replied the witness.
He said the total sales of powder
of the pool In 1892 were S.800,000 kegs,
while the independents sold less than
200.000 kegs.
The witness then went Into detail
as to a plan which the associated
manufacturers adopted and which pro
vided that the entire powder trade
throughout the United States be placed
on a contrart basis, with the result
that practically the entire blasting
powdpr trade of the country was se
cured. He described the Storage & Dcliv
erv Company, organized by the asso
ciated companies from which a great
reduction in the tost of handling dy
namite and powder resulted, but the
Independents reaped no benefit, for
they were not permitted to Join It.

Commissioner at Washington Voices
Aspirations at Lake Mohonk.
Hartford Courant's Editor Con
demns Selfish Tariff Poller.
LAKE MOHONK, N. T., Oct. 22.
"The Philippines" was the general sub
ject of discussion at today's session
of the Lake Mohonk Conference. Senor
Pablo Ocampo. resident commlsioner of
the Philippines at Washington, -who
talked briefly first In English and then
in Spanish, favored the Independence
of the Philippines.
Senor Ocatnpo said, that while the
Philippine Islands, due to their geo
graphical position, were a dispersed,
separate and scattered country, in the
latent aspiration of the people, they
form a cohesive whole.
"And that aspiration, sacred In its
origin, regenerating In its means, great
in Its flnalify," he continued. "Is the
wish of assuming their own affairs,
the vivid desire of being free and In
dependent. It is absolutely a popular
aspiration, an ideal worshipped at all
times. In all places and by all classes.
These desires and anxieties, however,
are not a cry of protest against the
present administration. The Govern
ment there is administered for the ben
efit of the people in a paternal and not
tyrannical way. It Is simply a desire
for ultimate independence."
Conditions in the Philippines were
discussed by prominent American offi
cials of the Islands.
Charles Hopkins Clark, editor of the
Hartford Courant, discussing the
desirability of the Philippines as
American possessions, said he did
not see what we could have done
but - keep them, but denounced as
"signally selfish and heartless" our
hostile tariff policy and restrictive
shipping laws, while we remove their
all-Important export duty on hemp,
provided it comes to this country. As
a result, we get the hemp and the Isl
ands have lost more in export duties
removed from hemp than they have re
ceived from on all duties collected on
their products. He condemned "the
selfish and cowardly attitude of Con
gress regarding the tariff' and Its
sentimental attitude In giving at once
so much individual liberty."
W. Cameron Forbes, vice-president of
the Philippines, spoke -In favor of re
moval of the tariff barriers against the
Philippine products and in favor of al
lowing corporations to own more than
25fO acres of land, the present limit, and
of enlarging mining claims.
Congressman H. J. Hill, of Connecticut,
denounced "the policy of scuttle," saying
that 6uch a policy, carried to Its logical
conclusion, would close every missionary
institution and bring us just condemna
tion as highway robbers of civilization.
He said that the Army In the Philippines
cost about J6.00O.O0O a year and continued:
"It Is an annual expenditure of about
7 cents per capita of our population In
the greatest missionary enterprise which
the world has e-er seen and In the in
terest of humanity and Christian civiliza
tion, to lift up a Nation and put It upon
Its feet and hold It there until it can
walk alone. And yet aom of oar peo
