Scott was not satisfied with yester-

through all the years and in all his wan
behring's he has never wanted follow
ing. Today. while the majority Of the
people Of Iowa ridicule the versatile
politician and condemn his views. he is
generally given credit for sincerity and
personal integrity. 1t was natural that
Mr.. Bryan. as he crossed the western
border Of Iowa. on his way from Lincoln
to New York. should early find himself
in the receptive arms OF General Weaver,
whose advocacy OF fatism was in the
full vigor and swing Of maturity when
Mr.. Bryan was yet encompassed in the
swaddling clothes OF infancy. Iowans
who sought to pay tribute to Mr.. Bryan
fell. easily and naturally. behind the
ex-greenbacker.
When one considers certain aspects OF
Iowa's history one is prepared to believe
that the people Of that state are partic-
ularly susceptible to the doctrines
taught by Mr.. Bryan. Mr.. Bryan him
self has long since dismissed Iowa from
all consideration a. sure silver state,
and public opinion 10 many sections
OF the country is ready to endorse his
confidence. But a little investigation
will show that Mr.. Bryan and his
friends. who have SO glibly settled the
matter OF Iowa's political adherence in
this campaign. have drawn largely upon
their imagination and desire. No intel
ligent person can ride across the state,
talk to the psople. aud look into local
conditions. without coming to the con-
clusion that Iowa is securely fixed in
the republican column. The facts and
figures are all against the claim set up
by Bryan and his managers. The
Weaver idea still exists, but it is making
no Roadway. There has been no great
change in public sentiment in Iowa.
The conditions this year are. practically,
the same as obtained two years ago or
four years ago.
10 1895 F. NJ. Drake. the republican
candidate for governor. received 20s.1l4

didate. received 149. 42s votes. The peo-
pies party candidate received 2,1S9
votes. and Bacon, the prohibition can
didxte. ll.Oli votes. Drake was elected
governor by a plurality of 1926. His
majority over all contrasting candidates
was 1908 votes. Mr.. Bryan or any
one else who conteuds that Iowa will
give plurality for free silver this year
must account for a tremendous change
in sentiment. A republican plurality
of nearly 10000 votes cannot be wiped
out by glib gsbble. The more one
talks with the people the more one is
convinced that this plurality will be in
creased rather than diminiehed.

For twenty-five years Iowa has gone
republican in every presidential election.
In 1892 Harrison received 2l9,7 and
Cleveland 1897 votes. General Weaver
was q candidate for president in 1892
and 10 his own state. where his popular
ity is conceded, he received only 20.596
votes. The populist strength in Iowa
reached it's maximum IN 1894. when
"a 600 votes were cast Cor the state
ticket. The following year, as already
noted, it was $4,000. In the election of
1894 a republican congressman was
elected in each OF the eleven districts.
General Weaver was defeated for con-
gress in the Ninth district. two years
ago. by vote of u. s74 to 1857.

THE FOREIGN BUDGET.
Philippine Islands- Filibusterers
Captured-Affair In Turkey.

Vancouver, B. O., Oct. 22.-The EN-.
press of Japan, just arrived from the
Orient, brings advices regarding the
rebellion against the Spanish in Philip
pine islands, confirming the previous re-
port that the Spaniards are likely to have
another war as serious as that in Cuba on
their hands.
An illustration of the atorcities perpe-
trated by the rebels is furnished by the
attack on the large monastery in Cavite
province. Several padres were hanged
to trees and roasted to death with burn
ing kerosene oil. Others we're put to
death in even more cruel manner, por-
tions of the bodies being cut off piece
meal.
By torture the Spaniards wrung many
secrets from the prisoners. At the
"Black Pole of Minila," the old fortress,
prisoners are thrown into dungeon, the
entrance into which is gained by a hole
in the roof.
The only ventilation is through
barred opening underneath the platform
floor and at high tide this means of ven
tilation is totally closed.
Many prisoners, who do not die from
suffocation, were found to have torn each
other in dreadful manner in fits of in
sanity.

THE PRELATES MEET.
Catholic University KectOrship Re-
ferred to the POpe-ArchbishOps
Holding Private Session
This Afternoon.

Washington, Oct. 22.-The prelates,
members of the board Of directors, of the
Catholic university were called together
this morning for supplemental session
and changed the time of the annual meet
ing to the second Wednesday in October.
Archbishop Corrigan, of New York, has
been delegated to write letter to the
pope, presenting the list of three names
recommended for the rectorship.
Cardinal Gibbons asked the archbish-
ops to take steps, through the press and
otherwise, to overcome the public i'm
preston that the present meeting of the
board and the events leading up to it had
been of sensational and scandalous
character.
The impression prevails in ohurch cir
cles, and is shared by some members of
the board, that Vicar General Mooney
will receive the very favorable considera-
tion of the pope for rector, and possibly
may be successful, though Father Con-
aty's chances are somewhat better.
After the meeting of the directors the
archbishops of the church assembled for
their annual meeting. The sessions are
private.
The principal subject under considera-
tion, it is thought, will be the Indian
school question as affected by the recent
decision of congress to do away with ma
tlonal aid to seotarian educational insti-
tutiOns.

Rochester, Ind, Oct. 22.-The Indiana
committee evidently does not intend to
allow Mr.. Bryan to fall far behind his
record on the trip through Hoosierdom.
He made nineteen speeches in the twenty
four hours ending at midnight last night.
To-day seventeen speeches are on the
card and there will probably be more.
But Parks Martin, chairman of the
state committee, who is in charge of the
train, is taking care that Mr.. Bryan re-
ceives more rest and is doing his best to
save him from the too affectionate
crowds.
The first speech to-day was at Decatur,
shortly after O'Clock. Several Thousand
farmers listened to Mr.. Bryan more than
quarter of an hour aud gave bolster
GUS approval to his utterances.
He quoted from the address of Prince
Bismarck year ago, in which he said
that the farmers must stand together and
protect themselves from the drones of
society who produce nothing but laws.

COVERT ATTACK ON SILVER DEMOCRACY

Princeton, N. j., Oct. 22.-The fair
weather made the exercises of Princeton
semi-centennial anniversary day doubly
enjoyable. The presence of the presi-
dent of the United States had the effect
of increasing the already large crowd in
town. Alexander hall, in which the cere-
monies we're held, was packed to suffoca-
tion.
The Philadelphia city troop escorted
President Cleveland on foot through the
university grounds to Alexander hall.
Mrs. Cleveland was driven to the hall in
an open carriage under the escort of Mrs.
Patton.
President Patton made the formal an
nouncement that what was formerly the
College of New Jersey will henceforth be
known as the Princeton university. A
scene of wonderful enthusiasm followed.
President Patton then announced that
the endowment fund amounted to nearly
81 100000, not including the amounts
contributed for Blair hall by John 1.
Blair and the new library.
The ceremony of comforting degrees
on the sixty.fve men elected for the
honor was next on the program.
THE PRESIDENT UNDuLY ALARMED.
Next came the principal event of the
day, the address by the president of the
United States.
In the course of his speech Mr.. Cleve-
land said: "When popular discomfort
and passion are stimulated by the acts
of designing partisans to pitch peril
ously near to class hatred or sectional
anger, l would have our universities and
colleges sound the alarm in the name of
American brotherhood and fraternal de-
pendence. When an attempt is made to
delude people into the belief that their
suffrages can change the operation of
natural laws, l would have our universities
and colleges proclaim that those laws
are inexorable and far removed from
political control. When the design is to
allure the people from honest thoughts
and blind their eyes to the sad plight of
national dishonor and bad faith, would
have Princeton university, panoplied in
her patriotic traditions and glorious
memories, and joined by all the other
universities and colleges of our land, cry
out against the infiction of this treacher-
GUS and fatal wound. l would have the
influence of these institutions on the side
of religion and morality"
ANaLoMANIAcs SING america"
At the conclusion of the presidents ad-
dress, the entire assemblage sang, "Amer-
ica."
The benediction was pronounced by
Right Rev. Henry Yates Saterlee, bishop
of Washington, D. G. This concluded the
semi.centennial exercises.
Mr.. and Mrs. Clev eland were entertained
at lunch by President and Mrs. Patton.
Later reception was given by President
and Mrs. Patton to the president and his
wife.
Over 1000 invited guests paid their
respects to the chief executive and Mre.
Cleveland. This function lasted until
p. m.
President and Mrs: Cleveland were then
escorted TO their special train and the
journey to Washington was begun at 5:l5
