that William j. Bryan is elected Pres
ident- Mr.. Stratton agrees that if he

Mr.. Stratton says that he does not
make the offer through any pointers

arouse the worllingmen to the neces-
sity of voting for Bryan.
Mr.. Stratton is the Colorado Springs

aire in Cripple Creek. He says that the
maintenance of the gold standard would
be better for him, but not for the
masses, and he believes in the masses.

frage is a trust from their country and
from Thee, and to direct and prosper
all their actions at this present time to
the advancement of Thy glory, the good
of the church, the safety, honor and
welfare of the people; that all things
may be SO ordered and settled by their
endeavors upon the best and surest
foundations; that peace and happiness,
truth and justice. religion and piety
may be established among US for all
generations.
''TiIese and all other necessities for
L.4eIa, for US and for Thy whole church
we humbly beg, in the name and medi-
alton of Jesus Christ, our most blessed
Lord and Savior. Amen

HANGED FROM A BRIDGE.
Swift Punishment to Young rlan
Who Committed Brutal Murder.

WINONA (Minn.), Oct. 2S--A rllmor
has reached here that Palmer, the
North Bend murderer. has been lynched.
Il is stated that the officers started
with the man for Black River Falls,
but We're overtaken by a mob of twenty
armed men, who hanged Palmer from
a railway bridge.
Palmer, a young fellow of Is years,
lived with a farmer named Marshall a
mile and a half from North Bend. He
Quarreled with his employer, and
squared accounts in a manner most
diabolical. Early in the afternoon he
took little Oscar Marshall bright and
pretty child of 3 years, out to the barn,
where he deliberately took an ak and
brutally pounded in the child's skull.
DR.. Rhodes was summoned from Gales
ville but when he came the child was
beyond human aid and soon died.
Upon a careful search of the premises
Palmer was found in an ice box. He
had smeared his face and hands wi+l
carbolc acid, and made them a no.
rible sight. His eyes were shut and
he was pretending to have committed
suicide. He was stood on his feet and
made to walk. For some time he kept
up his pretended stupor. but finding it
would not work with his enraged cap
tors, broke down, opened his eyes and

CHICAGO, Oct 2S.-Two young men,
Chauncey c. Foster and Lewis Han
chett, We're arrested this noon for
throwing eggs at Mr.. Bryan during his
ride from the train to Battery d yester-
day. They admit their guilt Foster is
II years old and son of a retired mer-
chant. Hanchett is the same age. His
father is President Of the Hanchett

up pending further investigation.
On the strength of written plea for
their release sent by Mr.. Bryan the po-
lice tonight released Foster and Han
chett from custody with a warning not
to offend again, and the young men
were taken home by their fathers. Fos-
ter admitted to the detectives that he
bought a dozen fresh eggs to throw at
the procession when the Bryan carriage
passed the business college building.
Half of the eggs We're thrown before the
youths took fright and ran from the
room.
Mr.. Powers, the proprietor of the
school, announced tonight that he
would assemble all the instructors and
pupils tomorrow at noon and publicly

SECRETARY CARLISLE
A LARGE AUDIENCE
AT LOUISVILLE.
Appeals to All Voters to Vote for
Honest Government and
Sound Currency.

LOUISVILLE (Ky.). Oct. 2S.-Secre-
tary of the Treasury John G. Carlisle
spoke tonight at Louisville the strong
hold of the gold Democrats of Kentucky.
He spoke in the Auditorium, the largest
building in the city, and the audience
which listened to the distinguished
Kentuckian was even greater than that
which assembled to honor the Palmer
and Buckner party when they were no.
titled of their nominations last month
The Auditorium seats nearly $500, and
nearly every seat was filled before 4
o'clock. At O'Clock every aisle and all
available standing room was taken, and
there were 5000 unable to obtain ad-
mission. Colonel John r. Fellows of
New York. who was taken i'll here last
night, occupied a box.
Mr.. Carlisle arrived at the Auditorium
at 8 o'clock accompanied by George A.
Davie, Chairman of the National DEM
ocratic Executive Committee. His ap-
pearance on the stage was the signal for
an outburst of applause, which contin-
ued for five minutes, with every man
standing his feet waving a fig, hand
kerchief or hat
Mr.. Carlisle was very much affected
handkerchief went to his eyes more
than once.
Mr.. Carlisle was listened to with the
most respectful attention. There was
not the slightest attempt at disorder.
The mention of President Cleveland's s
name caused the speaker to be inter
rupted for nearly two minutes by ap-
plause for the President.
I'M Of
regard to the Supreme Court, Mr.. Car
Isle said it was better to have an all
powerful Congress and President than
to have a corrupt court. He said that
should dishonest Administration come
into power it could never be displaced,
as it could so work patronage that it
could hold on, despite all patriotic people
could do. AS for himself. he was an
American citizen, and was for his coun-
try first and party afterwards.
The root of all the present evil. Mr..
Carlisle said. was the vicious legal ten
der paper known as treasury notes,
which would be replaced by gold should
they be retired. He said that if every
body was as friendly to silver as the
Secretary of the Treasury, there would
be far more silver in circulation.
Mr. Carlisle closed by appealing to all
good citizens to vote for honest govern
ment and sound currency.
When the Secretary took a seat amid
great applause, there were loud yells for
Colonel Fellows. who came to the front
and made a few remarks. He referred
to the Covington egging by saying that
the majority of the people thought the
Lord intended eggs for food but the sill
verites believed they were made for ar
gument.
| Mr.. Carlisle was very much amused al

Fellows had finished he and Mr.. Car
Isle held an impromptu reception on
| the stage.

For Coast Defense Work and Building
More Warships.
1t Will Also Be Recommended That
Congress Repeal the Existing Law
Regarding the Limit of the Army
to Twenty-Five Thousand Men,
and That the Land Forces Be In
creased at Least Four Thousand.

NEW YORK, Oct. 2S.-A Sun spe-
cial from Washington says: Both the
Secretary of War and the Secretary of
ports to the President the expenditure
of large sums of money during the next
fiscal var to better protect the nation
from foreign attack.
Secretary Herbert will urge the build
ing of additional batleships and torpedo
boats and will outline plan for enlarg-
ing the navy until it has at least twenty
battleships and 200 torpedo boats. He
Will contend that until that number of
battleships and torpedo boats has been
provided no further additions to the
cruisers should be made
The authorities of the department
maintain that so far no better type of
battleship has been presented than the
Indiana and Massachusetts, class, and
thus for obvious reasons the navy will
be stronger when most of it's battleShipS
are Of the same type, speed and size.
BattleShips are regarded by the naval
experts as the backbone and mainStay
of the navy, and the more the country
sees of them the safer it will be from
attack.
Secretary Lamont says the next Con-
gress should appropriate at least S16,-
| O00,OO to continue the project now be-
| ing carried out for coast defense. The
Secretary will urge legislation to es-
tablish the three battalion formation.
which has been adopted by the armies
of every other civilized nation. Last
year the Secretary recommended, as
necessary to effect the change, the re-
zeal of the limit of 25,000 mn and the
return to the limit fixed by the Act of
! July ID, 1870. Congressional approval
of these two propositions would restore
| to the effective force of the army about
| 1000 enlisted men and bring the actual
| strength up to the normal strength
prescribed by law. 1t would increase
the efficiency of the army 20 per cent,
in numbers about 161a per cent. and in
| cost of maintenance only about per
| cent
| Another interesting subject which he
will refer to is staff reorganization. He
| will recommend, as he did last year
| that the existing law be so modified
| as to fix the term of office of the head of
certain staff corps at a specific number
! of years, and that at the expiration of
such period the chief of such depart
| ment, unless reappointed, shall resume
his duties in his actual grade. He will
| further advise that the law on the sub
| ject be amended so as to permit of the
selection of heads of staff corps from
officers of the line.
The Secretary will also advise slight
| reduction in the pay corps of the army.

TERRITORY OF ARIZONA.
ANNUAL REPORT OF GOVERNOR
FRANKLIN.
The Southern Applicant for State
hood in Most Flourishing
Condition.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2S.-Hon. Ben
jamin Franklin, Governor of Arizona
has submitted his annual report on the
operation of that Territory during the
last fiscal year. He says the product OF
the three most important industries
mining, stock raising and agriculture
gave an aggregate return Of over S1S,-
COO, 900. The mineral output was nearly
S14 ,000, 900.
The population of Arizona is over
100000. an increase of nearly 25.00t
over last year. Taxable property is es-
timated at SIS, S,047,176, but Governor
Franklin says this does not represent
more than one-third of the actual value
of the property in the Territory. as it is
not assessed a its real value. Over 10.-
100000 acres of land may be reclaimed
for agricultural purposes, but of this
amount but 1000, 600 have yet been re-
claimed.
The live stock industry, the Governor
states, is an important business and
shows encouraging results, the cattle
shipped from the Territory during the
past year averaging in value S2,J2I 600
Governor Franklin says that Arizona
Is without question the most attractive
mineral field in the United States, as il
has coal, lead, lime, copper, gold and
silver in abundance and deposits OF
fine marble, red, black gray and vari-
gated There are building stone and
rich deposits Of onyx or ribbon agate
He says about 100000 900 acres of the
land in Arizona can be described as
mineral bearing, and only awaits the
introduction of sufficient capital tc
properly develop it.
The output of gold the past year was
about So 200, 900, nearly a million dol
lars increase over the previous year.
The financial condition of the Terri
tory, the Governor says. compares ia
vorably with any other Territory. and
the banks are in good condition.
! There are about $4,000 Indians in the
| Territory. Governor Franklin says tha'
| the acreage of each reservation in the
Territory is too large for the number oi
| Indians, and calls attention of Congress.
| to this fact. The habits Of the Indians
have changed. and they are becoming
