nor's Political Opponent

NEWARK, o., Sept. 15.-Hon. Lawrence
T. Neal of Chillicoths, Democratic candi-
date for governor, addressed large audi
ence here. Among other things he said:
"We are now reaping the bitter harvest
of Republican legislation. The Sherman
silver law and the Mckinley tariff law un-
derlie the feeling Of distrust and want of
confidence which at this time pervades
financial circles. These two acts alone are
responsible for the prevailing stagnati on

mines and factories and the general de-
presaion in agriculture, and condition OF
prosperity can only be restored by us, as a
people, by our adherence to the Demo
cratic faith in the matter of both currency
and tariff reform"
Mr.. Neal strongly favored the repeal of
the purchasing clause of the Sherman sill
yer law and gave the declaration of prin-
ciples adopted by the Democratic state
convention vt Cincinnati his personal en-
dorsement. Continuing, he said:
'Ths greatest foe to the prosperity of the
people is McKinleyism. So long as the
federal system of protective taxation IL
continued. we can have no general and
permanent prosperity in this country. To
regain such prosperity, we must apply the
axe to the root of the evil with earnest

VETERANS ARE ANGRY

ridors for two days, ordered around by
watchmen, compelled to breathe bad air,
kept standing in line for fear of losing
their places and finally put under charge
Of policemen.
As American citizens, it is claimed, the
pensioners have the right to have their
mail delivered to any address they wish,
and they deny that the pension depart
ment or the postoffice department has
right to intercept their mail and prevent
1t being delivered to the proper address
The petition will be taken to Washing
ton, together with the remonstrances of
the pension attorneys This remonstrance
declares that the interception Of mail by
the postoffice employees at Baltimore was
illegal, and 1t quotes the revised statutes
