In many . battls's tempest it shed IA

"The war has been successful. II ended
in little over q hundred days. Matchlesg

"A matchless army and fearless navy
have done their part, the rest remains with
us. The war was inaugurated for humanity;
it must not stop until it embraces human
ity. 1t was not commenced in bitterness;
it was not commenced in malice-it was
commenced in a spirit of humanity for free

and we would not if we could. Happy are
all free peoples, too strong to be dispos-
scssed, but blessed are they among nations
who dare to be strong for the oppressed"
Following the speeches the procession was
reformed and the President was escorted to
the Union Station, where he took the train
for Cincinnati.
AT CINCINNATI
The presidential train reached Cincinnati
at 4:30 p. m, and was backed into the
Union station, where the president bowed
his acknowledgements to the crowd that
was in waiting for the train, but he made
no speech. Chairman Shattuck and party
OF citizens boarded the train and shook
hands with the president, but the stop was
only long enough for Captain w. w. Pea
body, vice president of the Baltimore and
Ohio Southwestern, Superintendent How
ard and number of newspaper men to
board the train to accompany the president
and his party as far as Columbus. The rain
was pouring down while the train was in
this city and there were few that knew the
president was in the city.
AT COLUMBUS
The presidential train arrived ct Colum-
bus at $40 p. m. Notwithstanding the rain,
depot and the spacious building resounded
with cheers. A committee of citizens met
the president, and, accompanied by an es-
cort composed Of the Seventeenth United
States infantry and the Columbus rifles, he
was driven to the Auditorium. Fully 1880
people, who had patiently waited more than
an hour, were packed into the immense hall
and the presidents appearance was greeted
with almost deafening cheers.
The president was introduced by Samuel
L. Black, who spoke for about ten minutes,
his address being frequently interrupted by
enthusiastic applause.
Secretaries Gage and Wilson also spoke
briefly. The celebrated Republican Glee
club. which sang at the Inauguration cere-
monies IN Washington, sang several popular
songs. After a short informal levee on the
stage, during which the president shook
hands with large number of prominent cit
izens, who acted upon the reception commit
tee, he returned to the train. A committee
of ladies met Mrs. Mckinley on the train at
the depot, but she did not leave the car.

TEXAS CATTLE
Are Seeking the Market by Way Of
Denver

DENVER, Col, Oct. 21.-The Texas Pan
handle has been added to the territory trib-
utory to the Denver cattle market. Up to
October the railroad rates were such that
very few cattle could afford to come this
way from Texas, but the Union Pacific,
Denver. From Farwell to Estelline the
makes it not only possible but advisable to
ship Texas cattle by way of Denver. The
new rate is 81 cents per hundred pounds from
all points on the Gulf line as far South as
Farwel, Texas, to the Missouri River, via
Denver. FromF arwell to Estelline the
rate is "a cents, via Denver, with feed in
transit privileges at any point. The new
tariff carries flat rate to Denver on all
shippers who sell cattle to stop here can
pay the Decent rate if they desire, but if they
went billing through to the river, they have
only to pay 81 or "a cents, according to the
point where shipment originates.

Unless all signs fail there will soon be thorough revision of matters con- nected with the Adult Asylum for the Blind in Oakland
 Superintendent Hayes says the busi ness results are necessarily bad, the laws governing the institution being cumbersome, antiquated and handi- cap to business methods.
 Secretary of State L. H. Brown un- hesitatingly declares that his recent in- vestigations have shown an "astound- ing state of affairs" and makes sweep ing charges of mismanagement, while Expert Lewis laughed in his sleeve as he read the figures that showed how brooms are being made for $1 31, and sold in the markets at 90 cents, simply because the law says that brooms must be made and sold, and that the factory must run.
 This means that we are losing right along" Superintendent Hayes said last night My books shows that there is a deficit of $19S7 26 for this year. and the loss must grow greater as the fac tory continues
 To make the conclusions of the three men heretofore quoted clear to the public it should be explained that there is law that compels the institution to run continuously, the broom corn and other raw materials being bought by contract. According to Superintendent Hayes this is great handicap. He says he has received offers of corn at a cost of $33 a ton less than is being paid here, the offers coming from the East. The other factor In the case that m1li- tates against the local institution IS that the blind men work slowly with the best material, and their goods have to come in competition with poorer ma

cent, and those who average from SS to SIP a week are expected to pay 50 or that for board.
 q think the old system was the best, as there are many there wno cannot earn enough to pay anything Tor board and that makes a distinction among them which l do no- believe should exist There are 10S inmates there in aIl-90 males and IS females. The latter can only be employed III making whiSk broOmS and toy DroomS' and are lucky if they earn 15 cents day.
 Most of them range from fifty years up. and to expect them to earn enough to sustain the broom factory under the present conditions is out of the queS- tion All of their machinery Is old- fashioned, and it is simply impossible for them to make c article that will compete with the product of modern machinery. They are working as light as they can now, and Of course there is no hope of them paying up this $600O shortage. It will have to be done by allowinr~ deficiency. The State ap propriated S45, ,000 for the two years, but of course none of that could be used for paying the deficiency in the broom factory fund. That is for the mainte- nance and general support of the tnst1- tuition. I have always understood that there was not much politics in the I noticed that oue of the twenty-two em- ployes there are only five of the old ones left since the board became Dem ocratic."
 When asked how long the directors had been paying $50 per ton more than any one else for broom corn, MT. Brown replied:
 1.-TWO years"
 .'They claim defect in the law. do they not?"
 ''Yes."
 ''Then why was the law not remedied at the last session of the Legislature?'
 You will have to ask me something easier" answered MT. Brown, and con- tinuing, said: Had they secured such amendments as they claim will be nec- essary before they can purchase as any one else purchases, they would have saved S3000 on their last contract, as they buy about 100 tons per year. An other thing I noticed, and that was while there has been only an increase of twelve inmates in 1897 over 1896. the increase in the pay to inmates of 1897 as compared to 1896 is $2260 Of course I do not pretend to say that such an increase was a proper one, but 1t LOOKS a little unreasonable to an unpreju- diced mind
 Tn speaking of the Superintendent, MT. Brown said: ''I do not wish to be understood as duplicating MT. Hayes in any of these transactions wherein the State has paid out 30 per cent more money for material than a private in dividual would have to pay. I only know that my investigations show that such has been the practice, and such is the practice in vogue there to-day, and if there are good reasons for 1t, l pre- sume the Directors will be pleased to make them known.
 "At any rate there should be some very decided changes in the present law governing the institution"
