Tbs blfgsst vnt of th Republican campaign la Chicago by far wu held tonight whn Oovar- por Charles EL Hugh of Nw Tork addressed an old-fashlond "rally" at th big Co lieum. Th msettng was preoedod - by a Republican parade, tnarclilnr clubs, tearing cad fir, pa radlng the 'down-town atreeta before marching to the Collaeum to bear th inklng. dovyrnor Hugbas waa the central figure. Mia voice had Improved won arruuy sines ne wae her laat Sunday night, when he could not apeak s word. and tonight lie rati Id be heard readll all over the big hall, which waa crowd d. Considerable enthusiasm waa man! ferted when Hugh waa eaoorted Into the Collaeum by a band playing' martial alra, the audience standing on chalra nd shouting wildly. The speakar lauded Judge Taft and then plunged Into a dlaouaalon of the principal plank of the Democratlo plat lorm. ii aaia in part: '-Now I ahair not attempt a com pari son oeiween ineae quaimcauona. Bryan's Basins. . "Mr. Bryan desires to bo Judged by his leaiaiatlve precepts. He dealrea to have his candidacy tested by the p poaalj which he makes with regard to the changes in our legislative or In our Statute book. "As I have said an me of the proposals mane nave no place in a presidential campaign, for example, take the pro posal wltn regard to tn fllreot elec tlon of senators of the United States by vote of the people In respective etatns. The constitution of the Unltt-U Slates now provides for election by the legislatures or me states, 'in consti tution cannot be changed by lbs presl dent. . "When we go further and consider matters that are within the domain of presidential recommendation and congressional action, we find that they are of varied degrees of choice In the proposals that are made. There Is one. . for exftmDle. which I shall dls cuss) with regard to the guaranty of bank deposits. It Is a, plausible sug gestion Intended to be alluring to many depositors In our banks that they will desire the. most complete protection. But that I do not think la a vital Issue In the campaign. The vital Issue in the campaign Is whether we shall have money to deposit. Unsound Principle. "I regard the proposition In the first place nn unsound In principle. Our system has more better men to engage enterprises provldi on the nankins enterprises provioeo thev complied with the requirements of the law, and to invest their re sources In this legitimate business with the prospect of obtaining the credit to which conservative and honest man- agement waa entitled. It la In my Judgt- ment. inherently unjust that a con-1 aervatlve and prudent banker should have cast upon him the loss sus tained through th recklessness or dis honesty of others,' over whom bo baa no control. "It would be a moat unfortunate thing If we ahould Install any system Dy wnicn tnese men snouia o invitea to prey upon the publlo by which they would be permitted to advertise a se curity given by such a guarantee fund and thua enter Into competition with' the president. Read carefuL As . Mr. Taft. pointed out tho other day, tha entry or adventurers Into the banking field of Oklahoma has been noted, and tha uae of a system for tha purpoea of ?ulrlng that which ahould not be nd by ordinary oredit, or ordinary upon acquiring gained by ordinary frospects, but which are sought be fact of thla guarantee. Tree Trade Basis. "It Is also proposed to put our busi ness and Industry upon a free trade baala. American Industry cannot stand It. I believe In thorough and fair re vision of the tariff. But Mr. Bryan proposes tariff revolution, not revis on. "But wa come to close Quarters with the Drooosala that are made In thla campaign that affect business, when we deal with Mr. Byran'a remedies for trusts. Mr. Bryan says that ha de alrea to exterminate trusts.. In the first place, he says he would put upon the free list every article coming Into competition with an article made by a trust. It la suggested that if that would destroy the trust It would cer- alnly destroy smaller competitors of the trust. Now ms otner remedy Is to have a law that would prohibit any concern engaged In Interstate commerce from manufacturing and selling more than CO per cent. of any product consumed in the United States. What does he mean? We have patent laws designed to encourage Inventive skill. Those laws give a monopoly of manufacturing the rtlcle for a period of years. A large variety of Industries have grown up under this protection. They may rep resent honest invention. Mr. . Bryan says: To you make more than 60 per cent of that artlcler He replied: 'Why, of course, I am the patentee; I make It 11. Well, you have got to oult If you are making more than BO per cent,' says Mr. Bryan. Here is a man with a new idea. Ho see where he can produce an article a little different from anythlnar on the market. He says here Is a chance. He gets some capital and he Is ready to put It In. Here would bo a new Indus try, a new opportunity for employ ment, a new blessing for the country. Hut he cannot move a step under this proposal unless somebody else has the same idea at the same time, and goes along with even step with him."

" THRILLIHG TALE OF FOOTPADS' DEED Striking Scene in "The Clansman. No road actor welcomes the "at lib erty season" more gratefully than the chap who plays the role of tha mulatto lleutenant-Kovernor In "The Clansman" at the Helllgr theatre this week. Silas Lynch Is the worst-hated stage villain on the boards today, and the trouble is that the better Charles J. Wilson plays the part, the hotter It gets for him. More than once he has been obliged to pull off his wia; and rub the black cork from his features to show he was only a counterfeit negro. What Infuriates a southern audience with Silas Lynch Is not bo much his political activity as his aspiration to be a mo-lern Othello. The doctrine of "social equality" hs been dinned In his ears until he feels Justified In seeking a white wife. Right there the trouble begins. He Is persona non grata In a minute. The white folks In the play shun him. and as for the gallery ft Is a bad quarter of an hour for Silas L,ynch. DUMB MAN AND THE SILENCE FAMILY MAKE TOO MUCH NOISE Paris, Oct 10. Phllllpe Buneau Var 111a, who was closely associated with the negotiations leading; up to the purchase by the United States government of the bonijs. stock and rights of the now French Panama Canal company, todaj made a statement to a correspondent regarding the charge that a syndicate Of American politicians realised $36, 700.000 out of the total of $40,000,000 paid by the .United States for the canal property. Varllla declares the cash Is now find ing Its way Into the hands of tho Indl " Vldual French bondholders and that It is Impossible that such a large sum could have been distributed among the members of the American syndicate. , "No such syndicate as has been de scribed." said Varllla. "could have ex tsted. The stocks and bonds of the old Panama canal company wero too widely scattered to render it possible for 'small clique of men to gather them to gothef. "Tho court of arbitration, which re ceived the payment of $40,000,000 from the United States government, gave to the new Panama Canal company $15,- 000,000. Tho balance went to the re ceiver for the old Panama Canal com tanv to satisfy its creditors. The re celver has 'realized Q. certain assets of the old company, so that Its creditors will eventually receive $36,000,000 In . all." p 1 ' 1 NO LONGER FISH OUT OF WATEK (Continued From Pag One.) and I do not qualify It In anv way. I know life on both sides of the water and I am Impressed mors than ever with American supremacy. Ours Is the greatest land In every way. Our wo men also excel In grace and beauty, In stylo or areas ana in moae oi living. "It Is strange, perhaps, that I saw little of the suffragette movement either In London or Paris. For my part, I am not hastening to enroll In that cause. I do not see why I should. "There Is greater power than that of the voter. Woman has a tremendous influence. Through ber husband sh has a great and increasing influence for good. "It Is true that woman oould net be bribed with money If she had a vote, but there are 'other things that might tempt her. She might bo led through the heart, but sh could not be caught through money." - In regard to the prevailing and com ing fashions for woman Mrs. Fish said: TDIrectoire gowns will reign this year; and after that, perhaps, hoop skirts. "Gowns? Oh. yes. but Fifth avenue yieias quite as raucn originality as Paris. We started with eleven trunks and I have returned with thirteen, which goes more toward proving my assertion u.an any otner evidence I could afford to offer. "I am an advorats of th new close fitting gowns call them what you wish they give one good llnrs and ar graceful and ar easy to manage.' A special officer on the east side walked Into the police sta 4 tlon last night and said he had a hold-up to report The desk sergeant was willing to hear 4 what the special had to say. 4 This is what the special told the regular: 4 About 9 o'clock ho had been approached by a man who waa 4 greatly excited. The scared one said he had been held up at Grand avenue and Oregon street. 4 Two men did the deed. The victim of the robbery told the special that he lived at 390 Oregon fctreet and that he was homeward bound when 4 halted by tho highwaymen. But he didn't stop long, he said. "They yelled halt and I ran like " the man said to the special. And as the man whs 4) still scared and as the special 4 waa a little , uneasy, too, they 4 lioon separated and the special 4 did not get the name of the man who was held up. So the desk man in making out his re- 4 port of the affair did so wlth- 4 out names. This was neces- 4 sary as he did not know the . name of the man held up and to be certain he had no Ides of the . names of tho two men who were so bold. Tho man who was held up lost nothing but a lot of sleep 4 last night The hold-up men gained nothing but experience. 4 And the special well, he's got 4 a pretty good clue, or at least he would have If he only knew the nam of the man who lives at $90 Oregon street But the 4 desk man really knows more 4 about th robbery than any other person because the special 4 officer told him all he knew, and th officer . on the regular 4) force Imagined the rest 4 As this is about all ther was 4 to th hold-up this will be about all of the story. 4444444444 i i! I Two people named Silence and a deaf and dumb man have been making so much noise of late at 7 Union avenue that complaints have been made to th police by the business men whos4 places are In the vicinity and an of ficer had to be sent over to stop the racket No. 7 Union avenue Is the Holy Rol and Mrs. Silence According to tho ler mission, and Mr. are In charge of it report made by Officer H. O. Bales, the deaf and dumb man is an ex-prize fighter and all-around bad man, and he rolls around the floor and makes hideous noises. The officer concludes his report by tho remark, "They say he is experiencing considerable trouble in getting forgiven." The Trail of Standard Oil. From tho Philadelphia Public Ledger. Whatever may be the Immediate; po litical effect of the revelations now being made of the corrupt and unprin cipled dealings of the Standard Oil with politicians of both parties, there Is happily no doubt of tho result on the political fortunes of those to whom the tainted trail shall be traced. In the present state of the public con science the confirmation of their worst suspicions of the baleful Influences which have controlled, or attempted t3 control, the affairs of state and nation, will react with inexorable Justice and swiftness upon the individuals affect ed. The corporations may be beyond the reach of Immediate resentment, but not the Forakers, the Haskells, the McLaurlns and the Slbleys. These men have digged their political graves too deep for hope of resurrection, and the political atmosphere will be clearer for their elimination. It is a pity tht the process of elimination is aided by stolen correspondence, but, whatever the means, the healing light will be welcomed by every honest man.
