CANTON, o., Sept. 2--The noun
taineer editors of West Virginia have
good, healthy lungs. When a party of
sc called on MAJOR Mckinley at 8 o'clock
this afternoon several hundred people
Joined in the gathering. Every body
was enthusiastic and the delegation
applsuded nearly every sentence that
MAJOR Mckinley spoke. The presenta-
ton OF the republican press association
was by w. Z. Morris. and he said:
The bill that Is allied to your name
was such one as to make you dear to
West Virginia and causes West Virginia
repu blicans, with other reasons, to be-
lieve you are the most suitable man in
all the land for president. The reason
is not hard to find. It is because West
Virginia has beneath her rugged surface
enough coal for the world, iron ore in
vast quantities, has great forests and
sheep and cattle upon a thousand hills,
has fertile valleys and rich hillsides.
Without protection our vast natural
wealth is chained and helpless"
Major Mckinley was greeted with
the greatest enthusiasm. He said:
THE republican cause never was
more just and righteous than this year,
and the triumph of it's principles was
never more essential to the general well
fare of the American people. Nothing
is more vital to the standing and pro-
gress of the country than the preserva-
tion OF it's credit and financial honor.
Nothing more indispensable to business
and prosperity than that the currency
of the country be so honest that il can
cheat nobody, Nothing is OF greater
moment to the welfare of the country
than the adoption of policy Which will
labor and capital, constant employment
with fair returns. But, gentlemen, ~
ing beneath all these and more impor-
tsnt than all these is the preservation Of
law and order, reign of domestic
quiet.
GAIL these are embraced in the con-
tention which is upon us this year. In
connection with these questions, as edi-
tors and publishers, you have the Rrsv-
est responsibilities. You help to make
public sentiment, and right public senti-
ment is what Is most needed at this
iuEcture of our national affairs. Never
was the press OF the country more arous-
ed by these issues than now. 1t is not
confined to the republican press alone,
but includes many of the greatest news
papers which hitherto advocated the
democratic cause. All this is evidence
the people appreciate that great crisis
is upon them and the way to avoid that
crisis is for the patriotic in every section
OF the country to unite and act together
in the cause of their country.

The Report Of DR.. Eramens' Recent
Discovery Verified.
The Denver Republican prints the
following letter.
"Our attention was recently drawn
to the article in the New York Journal
in which DR.. Stephen II. Emmens of
New York claimed to have discovered
a way to change silver into gold. While
the description Of the discovery natu-
rally contained nothing definite Is to
the means employed. the phraseology
was nevertheless far from being trashy
or sensational, and was, in fact, quite
10 line with modern scientific knowl-
edge. In order to satisfy ourselves as
to the Commences OF the article attrib-
uted to such q we'll known scientific
source, we addressed the following COM
municstion to DR.. Emmens:
"Dr. Stephen II. Emmens No. l, Broad
way, New York City:
Dear Sir-We have read the recent
article in the New York Journal wherein
it is stated that you have succeeded In
changing silver into gold. We are
naturally greatly interested in the SUBJ
ect and the remarkable results claimed,
which, in the light of modern science,
We feel are entirely within the bounds Of
reason. The periodic law and other
considerations have long led chemists
to anticipate some such results as are
now claimed. We nevertheless take the
liberty Of writing. in order. If possible,
to learn positively II the article referred
to ia authoritative and correct"
I'm reply we received q very cordial
letter, which We do not feel at liberty to
publish, in which however, the doc
tor assures US that the Journal article
is substantially correct. or course he
cannot make known the details OF the
method, but he docs tell Us in general
way OF what the essence Of this discov-
cry consists. While we are not in q
position to fully indorse the claims Of
the discovery, it may interest the pub
lie to know that We dc not consider the
idea at ell absurd or unreasonable, and,
in view of DR.. Emmens' we'll known
scientific sttslnments, We are quite will
ing to accept his statements a. facts.
