RICHMOND, Ind, Oct 1.-THE follow
ing address was to-day forwarded to Col.
w. R. Holloway, consul general at St.
Petersburg who will send it to the Car:
Respectfully addressed to Nicholas III
Emperor of Russia:
Whatever influence the religious Society
of Friends may have Is ever ready to be
cast in favor of any proposition having for
its object the amelioration of human suffer-
ing. Probably none is greater than reducing
war to a minimum. 1t is doubtful if the
world has ever known the Inauguration Of
q movement fraught with greater oppor-
tunities for good than that propesd by thee
to the other nations of the earth. The sig
ni6cance of it is the greater, because it
comes from the ruler of a nation than
which none is better prepared for war. If
thy proposition be not accepted, the reason
must be in the fact that the nations have
failed to attain sufficient degree of civili-
cation to realize that what have heretofore
settled by arbitration. That war is de-
Structive of wealth and the higher instincts
OF humanity~is aXiomatic. We desire to add
our mite of influence for peace. We con-
graduate thee on thy efforts in that direc-
ton, and earnestly hope for their success,
and are pleased to know that like senti-
mentS animate the breasts of very many of
the American people.

possible for the citizens of the United States
TO abdicate their rightful position, shut
their eyes to the great opening destiny: if
it were possible for them to elect to-day a
Congress in opposition to the President OF
the United States, it would be accepted all
over tae world as a proof of the vacillation
and the weakness of the people, who did not
understand and grasp a great opportunity aars

are sending our machinery all over the
world. We have entered upon the policy OF
reciprocity. that great policy which was in
augurated eight years ago by that great,
true. magnificent American statesman, JAS.
G. Blaine. That policy, Incorporated in the
Mckinley bill cited, struck down under
Democratic administration. but now re-es-
tablished, has put us in such relations with
foreign nations that we are moving forward
TO the possession Of their markets, as We
are receiving such products they make
and we do not produce. You understand
that policy and YOU know what 1t means
We made twenty treaties of reciprocity un-
der the administration of that splendid citi-

president, Benjamin Harrison.
II might dwell on many questions which
Gre more or less involved in this canvass,
aut will say single word on the currency
question. Two years ago We were told that
we needed more money and that the only
way in which we could get more money
was to enter upon the unlimited coinage
OF silver at 16 to /, and that unless that pol
icy was established we could not have re-
turning prosperity. My friends. that policy
was not established, but to-day we have
nearly 800 Co, coo more Of currency than
We had In 1895, and every dollar of that adj

whole volume. is equal 10 the best dollar

McKINLEY's PROCLAMATION

Washington July 6.-President
Mckinley at 1l:4O tonight issued
the following proclamation to the
American people:
To the people of the United
States: At this time, when to the
yet fresh remembrance of the uu-
precedented success which attended
the operations of the United States
fleet in the bay of Manila on the
first day of May last, are added the
tidings of the no less glorious
achievements of the naval and mil
itary arms of our beloved country
at Santiago de Cuba, it is fitting
that we should pause, and staying
the feelings of exultation that too
naturally attend great deeds
wrought by our countrymen in our
country's cause, should reverently
bow before the throne of Divine
Grace aud give devout praise to
God, who holdeth the nations in
the hollow of His hands and
worketh upon them the marvels of
His high will. and who has thus far
vouchsafe TO us the light of His
face aud led our brave soldiers and
seamen to victory.
therefore ask the people of the
United States when they are as
sembling for divine worship in their
respective places of worship to offer
thanksgiving to Almighty God, who
in his inscrutable way is now lead
ing our hosts upon the waters to
unscathed triumph, now guiding
them in a strange land through the
dread shadows of death to success,
even though at a fearful cost, now
bearing them without accident or
loss to far distant clmes, has
watched over our cause and
brought nearer the success of the
right and the attainment of just
and honorable peace.
With the nations thanks let
there be mingled the nations
prayer that our gallant sons may
be shilded from harm alike on the
battlefelds and in the clash Of fleets
and be spared the scourage of sut-
fering and disease when they are
striving to uphold their country's
honor, and withaI let the nations
heart be stilled with the holy awe

JOHN L. SHEPPARD

This gentleman, whom all Of
Texarkana knows, AMI all Of Bowie

that he should have given in the
past two years Of service Ito TIM

Judge Sheppard, as We all know
him, held the district judgeship for
eight years in the Texas district
across the State line. and he is as
familiar a figure in Texarkana, as If
he lived here, and is, we might say,
one Of us, and we all have grown
up to love and admire him for his
talent aud push. That he will car
~ Bowie county, there is none to
doubt it and that by a good big
majority over both'of his opponents
What we want TO impress on the
minds of the voter IS that the pri-
mary vote tomorrow does not mean
that he who carries the county is
entitled TO the county's vote, but
the vote in the entire district will
be counted and the candidate re-
ceiying the majority will be the
one who will be declared the nOmi.

the necessity to work for Sheppard
with might and main. Sheppard
will carry Cass, Marion, Morris,
Titus, Camp and possibly Franklin
counties, while Crawford has car.
ried his home county by a rub,
Sheppard getting next to him with
good vote. Hodges will carry
Lamar, and he claims Red River
but it is not conceded to him by
any means, as he will be run closely
there by both Sheppard and Gran
ford and we believe Bowie will
prove the pivotal county, and the
way it goes, so does the nomination
and this points to John L. Sheppard
as the coming man beyond doubt.
But let his friends work, and work
hard, and let the victory be com
plete one,
John L. Sheppard has the brains
and ability to make a good con-
gresham, and we know he will re-
feet credit upon the people of his
district at Washington, and this is
the kind of man we want to send
there. We say vote for John L.
Sheppard and make no mistake.

1t is said that the privates in the
volunteer regiments are worked
hard by their officers. They are
made to dig trenches, cut wood,
wheel dirt and do other things that
they we're not accustomed to do at
home. Well, they we're not active
soldiers at home, and when they
went soldering they knew they had
to do soldiers work, including which
is digging trenches, icutting wood,
carrying water, working the wheel
barrow and other tricks that are
committed to the hired man in
times of peace. Their friends and
sentimental admirers may complain
of these "hardships,' but we have
vet to hear that any soldier worthy
of the name has raised his voice in
complaint. On the contrary, it
may be said that the soldiers by
whom the comforts and luXurles OF
life were accepted as a matter OF
course, take what this war is giving
them without murmur. That is
