CAN BE HEARD ALL OVER ONO. An
Ohio politician, in speaking of the
Democratic nominee for Governor,
said. ''The most remarkable thing
about Mr.. Chapman in his voice, 1
don't say this disrespectfully, for per-
sonally he is very good man and has
been successful in business. But it is
a fact that he has q voice which for vol
ume and carrying power cannot be
matched by any other man of his phys
ical proportions in the State. He is a
man of only medium height, and by
no means pOrtly, but when he speaks
you feel that he ought to be nine feet
high and weigh ton. Really, the eff
feet on a stranger presented the first
time is a bit startling. You draw
back. 1t is like a cannOnade. We are
going to have that voice in the cam
paign on the stump, and shall be
curious, if any of the meetings are held
in any part of the State, to note the eff
feet of that trumpet call ON voters.
William Allen had what was called a
'foghorn voice." but was no such or
gan as Mr.. Chapman's. The day be-
fore the balloting began at Columbus
a local wag declared in crowd of pol
iticians that it would be grave mis-
take to nominate Mr.. Chapman.
"Why?" was asked. ''Ins't he good,
square man?" That's not the point, re-
piled the wag. If you nominate hin
you won't be able to confer with hin
about matters during the campaign.
What's the reason?' demanded thu
politicians. Simply because Chap

purpose Of interviewing General Ruis

in the Province Of Pinnr del Rio, who
was wounded and captured by the forces
OF General Felasco during an engage
ment near 'Cabesadas on Sunday.
The reporters found General Rivera,
who WAS confined In the quarters of the
Guard!a Civil. resting more easily than
he did yesterday, his wounds having
been attended to by Spanish physicians.
He was very reticent regarding the con-
dition Of affairs among the insurgents in
the province, positively refusing to an
swer any questions on the subject. He
spoke freely enough on other topics, and
dwet at length upon the history OF the
ten years war, In which he played a
prominent part.
One Of the interviewers asked him if
he did not think 1t useless to cause so
much bloodshed in fighting against the
sovereignty of Spain. His face at once
became very serious and he replied:
'"Time Will show; history will judge"
Both General Rivera and Colonel Bac-
caloa said that they were thankful for
the good treatment they had received
since they We're captured. General Ri
vera presented a diamond ring that he
wore to the surgeon who attended him
