NEW YORK BAR ASSOCIATION.

Albany, N. Y. January 1s.-The an

dress advocated biennial, sessions of the
legislature as means of reducing the
amount of legislation.
Mr. William G. Dewitt who delivered
the Grafton in place of Hon. John G..
Carlisle whose absence was occasioned
by the death of his son, spoke on the
greater New York charter.
He warned the state that it was not
the alteration or enlargement of munich
pal systems that contributed to their
popular prosperity. Commerce was the
paramount and controlling influence.
The immediate wealth of London, he
said, .swas the direct outcome of the
attempt of the British empire
to extend its commercial re-
lations with even the most remote parts
of the globe. He pointed out that a
continuation of the commercial advance
ment of New York lay not so much in
her relations with surrounding territory
as IN her commercial connections with
foreign nations. What England has
done for London must America do for
New York.

at ~ School street, who disappeared from
Boston Sunday, and is alleged to have
taken part of the valuables in the safe
with him. From an examination OF the
valuables left behind and the books OF the
concern it appears that the amount taken
reaches alrsady $50, 900. and tomorrow g
investigations may carry the amount still
higher. That was one Of the develop
ments. The other refers to the search oe-
ing carried on with the hope of finding
Knight, and the possible return OF, the
valuebles which he is supposed to be
carrying around in small hand bag.
Late in the afternoon we'll known
Lynn resident, who knew Knight in

that knight was hiding in some place
near Boston. He said he saw Knight in

man still further.

BIRDS OF I'LL OMEN.
Republican Party's Undesirable
Acquisitions.
GOV. PINGREE SAYS THEY ARE
CROWDING OUT REAL OWNERS.

Party Leadership at Fault When Things
coming More and More Apparent
Sick of Condoning Trusts.
S. Pingree of Michigan who was tn g
guest of honor at the January dinner Of
the Independent club the .Ellicott
Square club this evening, delivered an
address on 'Wnnt constitutes party loyal
I'm the course of which he said: 'sIt
long in power that to them flock all those
who desire to enrich themselves by legis-
lation which this party can give them.
To the Republican party there have
fiocked, during the past few years, many
birds of ill-omen, undesirable tenants
who are making the house SO foul that
they are driving out the rightful owners.
These undesirable acquisitions, the masses
OF the party would only be too glad to get
rid of for the party's good. make IN my
mind no difference between the integrity
of the common people in one party or an
other. 1t is party leadership which Is
most always at fault when things go
wrong. If the leaders are of the type OF
Mr.. Lincoln we have government for the
people. II they are of che other types
which might mention, we have govern :
ment for bond holders and plunder. In
late years the influence of wealth in dc
tating legislative measures and govern
ment politics is becoming more and more
apparent. Mr.. Cleveland disrupted his
party in doing the bidding of money
syndicate which made enormous profits
out of scandalous bond deal. Today all
the trusts, all the monopolies have taken
refuge under the wing of the Republican
pa1t because rhsy fear the Democratic
party which has kicked them out.
"a party which does not rid 1tser OF
men who make themselves prominent In
it with the sole purpose Of exploiting the
people and perpetuating the reign OF the
dollar will lose its influence with the
masses and, like church which accepts
a robbers tithe from wealthy and In
| fiuential pew owners who Wish TO case
their conscience, it will soon be all such
and none Others.
"Many of us lifelong Republicans, who
do not train with the money power are
heartily sick of being obliged to condone
and defend the trusts. A campaign OF
education has lately been started which
| proposes to teach the people that trusts
are benevolent institutions and under
providence viii make us ell happy.
"Patent ipsides and plats matter are
now shipped to the country newspapers,
Tor printing, which they are paid, show
/ ing how trusts cheaper things.
7You, perhaps remember how before ore
human slavery as divine Institution.
The question is today, Do half fares on
railroads and contri buttons influence the
clergy to deal gently with great wrongss'
''The power of money in this country
retains newspapers, it directs telegraphs.
1t elects men to the Senate an to the
House. 1t manipulates national and state
conventions Those of US who believe in
government for the people should not
hesitate to denounce men of our party
who would make ours only government
for the benefit of the almighty collar and
/ the possessOrs thereof. -
