The Newspapers Garbled Some
Words and Manufactured Others
The following extract is taken from
a letter received by Rev. H. w. Peck,
per S. S. Peru, from Rev. DR.. Ollie in
connection with the reports about his
statements about Hawaii:
Il see in one of our papers that a
garbled interview of mine was shown
to President Dole and that he made
some comments upon my alleged state
ments therein. A reporter called upon
me at the close of a service just after
my return, and perhaps talked to him
five minutes, saying in substance what
appears in the Chronicle report of my
lecture-a report which appeared be-
fore l saw any article about President
Dole's remarks. The reporter publish
ed an article, calling it an interview,
containing a great deal that l did not
say and putting his own cOloring upon
what 1 did say. I do not say that he
meant to misrepresent me, but wanted
something to fill up the column. The
extract which the Chronicle 1 sent you
contains reflects about the views I have
expressed, and the only views 1 have
expressed here. am aware that they
are not important, coming especially
from one who was there so short a
time, but naturally do not like to be
misquoted."
The Chronicle report referred to in
the above was published in the Adver-
tiser of June Is.

him if he had turned his horse loose,
which was answered in the negative,
He remarked he guessed he would have
to walk home. He walked across the
railroad and stated that his horse got
loose and he would have to walk home.
The town marshal offered him a horse
to ride home. which he refused, and this
is the last that was seen of him alive.
About 8 or 10 o'clock his son came

In short address to the delegation
from Tire, Crawford county, Maj. Nc
Kinley said in part:
1T is remarked that party lines are al
most Obliterated and the leaders of the
old and time honored democratic party
stand in opposition to the Chicago plat
form and are insisting that the Chicago
platform is opposed to the best interests
of the country and inimical to its honor;
that the democrats and republican this
year are acting together in common pur-
pose. | take it that there is no farmer
in the land who does not want the home
market restored. What the farmer needs
after he is done his sowing, reapng and
threshing is good market right at home
and the only way to get it is to set at
work all the factories of this country;
set every wheel in motion: start the fires
III our furnaces and put all our idle men
to work, and when you have done this
you have created the most magnificent
market the world ever had"
In his address to the delegation from
Minerva, o., Maj. Mckinley spoke in
part as follows:
This year, my fellow citizens. we
must all have true and genuine Ameri-
can spirit. We have not had much of it
just as well settle this question for all
time, that this is not a nation of repudia-
tors, and we propose to pay every obi
cation of the government in the best form
of money known to the civilized world
at the time of payment. The fair name
of this government has never been be-
smirched and it never can be.
I'VE do not propose to have the pen
sions granted by the government cut in
two by false finances. My fellow cti-
zens, the hope of this country and its flu
ture are in the hands of the American
people, in the American home where
truth and virtue presides.

Washington, Oct. 20.-1'he following
address was issued from the democratic

night:
'TO the Voters of the United States
In the preliminary battle of the people
against the plutocracy the people have
already won. In spite of an eXpendi-
ture of money so large that the civilized
world stands appalled, at its magnitude
today, large majority of the people are
in open revolt against the merciless gold
standard and the dominant wealth of
the country interested in preventing or
securing legislation. All necessary to
secure the registration of the peoples will
is to see that every man casts an I'M
purchased ballot Many of the millions
collected by the syndicates have been
reserved for election day. Beaten at
every point, the last resort of money is
TO buy the ballot of the voter by pur
chasing his absence from the polls or to
toerce his vote by intimidation. To pre-
vent this, if possible, every patriot will
do his duty, every member of club
must go to the polls early on the morn
ing of election day, cast his ballot and
remain there until the polls close and
the result is announced. Take care
that every voter gets to the polls and
casts his vote. Note down the name
of every absent voter. Let it be known
that the citizen who fails to vote, unless
prevented by extreme illness. has either
been purchased by inc money of the cor
ruptiOnists or is otherwise unworthy to
be called citizen. All signs indicate
the overwhelming triumph of the people

due for this than to the clubs, the peo-
pies organizations, created for no selfish
purposes and battling for the liberties

GUS unemployed and street beggars were
numerous. All were anxious for the flu
ture.
"St. Paul was also depressed, but has
more hope from the rise in wheat
THE northwest is suffering-even in

masses against the classes. There is
bitter feeling in the west against syndl-
against the east. New York and Chica,,
go hope Mckinley will carry. several
western states. San Francisco and
Portland disbelieve this. Mckinley is
unpopular in the west. Sound money
and Hanna are disliked by the working
men.

will be very close. IeOple are nopelui;
but not confident that Mckinley VIII

ance of the uneasiness. l find no DIS

most kindly received. The cool-headeo
say they never saw such excitement since

of the game. Bryan is personally re-
spected He is fanatic, but honest He
exercises a magnetic influence over ms
