TO THE RAILnoAD BOYS.
Major Mckinley Talks to q Delegation Of
IL. A. q. EmnloYea.


Canton. Ohio, Sept. 29.-In Major Nc
Kinley's address to the citizens Of In
dianapolis. he said In part: II am
glad to welcome the farmers and the
employees Of the Baltimore e. Ohio rail-
road company and the citizens gener-
ally who have honored me with this
call this afternoon. The farmers of
this country must appreciate and will
appreciate II they do not already that
we cannot increase their markets or
decrease their competition either at
home or abroad by destroying the
credit of the country. The only way
the farmers can be benefited In through
q larger consuming class. The mines
will not furnish the farmers with more
consumers. He has the most profit
able market for what he produces at
home and not abroad. He Is met at
the markets of the world with the pro-
ducts of other lands beyond the sea.
The only market he can rely on every
day of the year is the American mar
ket. and what he wants to know is
how to make that market the best. He
cannot do II by closing the mills. put
ting out the fires of our furnaces and
taking business away from the great
railroad lines of the country. He can
only improve the American market by
favoring a policy that will put every
man to work who lives beneath our
flag, and puts them at work at living
wages.
"The railroads of the country make
business. They consume fifty million
tons of coal year. That is what you
engineers burn every IL months. What
does that do? 1t gives you employ
uh xfA hItr trntp ~ 10
gives the thousands of miners employ
ment while they are digging It. That
is the kind of a policy we advocate

road train service has four distinct or
gapizatio l am informed that each
| of these organizations has depart
ment of insurance. mutual In its char
acter and conducted and administered
| by men OF their respective organiza-
| tions.
'The highest tribute to their business
capacity and history is found In the
| fact that not one dollar has been lost

| paid out nearly s3.500,000. the firemen
nearly $4,000. 900, the conductors nearly

| believe is the oldest organization, have
paid out nearly s6.0O0.000 The railroad
men. too. are Investors and stockhold-
ers in loan associations and have saw
ings in savings banks. or did have.
What deep interest therefore. these
railroad men have In the rightful set
tlement OF the money question. Not
only are they interested In preserving
the integrity of their savings for their
old age or disqualification and their
insurance to their families In case OF
accident or death. but they are inter-
ested in their present and future
wages. / do not believe that the rail-
road men Of this country will ever con-
sent TO having their savings cut in
two or their insurance money paid al
the rate OF SIC on the dollar Nor will
they be satisfied TO receive their wages
