Is BUTLER A PROTECTIONIST?

His Speech at the Massachusetts, Banquet
of the Peoples Party-He Says the
Gold Standard and Free Trade go To-
gether.
Boston, April 30.-The third annual
banquet of the Peoples party of Massa-
chusetts at Arcade hall tonight was at
tended by nearly $50 persons.
George W. Washburn. chairman of the
Populist State committee, presided ana
United States Senator Marion Butler, OF
North Carolina, made the principal ad-
dress of the evening.
After reviewing the political situa-
ton and showing how the great funda-
mental principles of the Populist party
are gaining ground with all classes and
conditions of producers and consumers,
he said:
1.-THE 100000 laborers, who are at
work in the cotton fields of the South
and the wheat fields of the West must
be protected against foreign pauper labor,
lust the same as the four million labor
ers who are employed in manufacturing.
This must be done, or you will have no
customers for your goods.
I'VE need true American system for
all American labor and American indus
try. Neither the Democratic nor Repub-
lican parties have offered us this. They
both offer remedies that are contradlcto-
ry. The gold standard and free trade go
logically together, hand in hand.
..The farmers and manufacturers OF
this country should join hands in at least
two great economic questions. They
should stand solidly for an American sys-
tenn of finance and for a just and equita-
bile system that will protect all American
;ndustry and American labor. This is the
nosition of the Peoples party; it is the
only logical and the only true American
position"

ALOT OF TURKISH WHY'S.

Larissa. April 2S.-(Delayed in trans
mission. )-Volo has not yet been captur-
ed, but the town is practically at the
mercy of the Turks. The Greek tactics
are difficult to understand. 1t is asked
here why, if the Greeks intended to re-
tire to Parsalos when the Turks enter
ed the plain, they did not destroy the tele-
graph lines, bridges and food supplies as
well as unexploded magazines, and why
they did not take the guns instead of
leaving here almost everything necessary
for a great army.
Inasmuch as they lost their heads it
is not thought likely that they will offer
an effective resistance at Parsalos to the
victorious Turks, whose morals, disci-
pline and conditions are splendid.
The people of Larissa are gradually re-
turning. There is not the slightest dis
order. No one is allowed \, the streets
at night without permit. Immediately
Volo is occupied by the Turks. Edhem
Pasha will transport supplies here from
that point. The Turkish transport SER
vice is excellent. We are now over 100
miles from the base of Turkish supplies,
yet there has not been the slightest
hitch.
There is great activity in the Turkish
camp, but military considerations pre-
vent me from indicating the movements
which are proceeding.
