Senator Foraker is receiving unstint-
ed praise from Ohio Republicans for
magnificent work that he did in the re-
cent campaign. And it is deserved.
1t is not an easy matter to estimate the
value of his campaign work. His per-
sonal efforts were perhaps the least of
the service he performed for Ohio Re-
publicanism. The position he occupied
as a leader was the salvation of the
party. The unequivocal stand he took
in favor of the ticket was blow to fac
tionalism. He placed the success of his
party above factions and fought gal
liant fight for the principles of his
party as represented by the admins
tration of President Mckinley. AS a
result he is as far above the petty fac
tionalists who could not forget their
own selfish aims as the stars are above
the earth. And withal the attitude OF
Foraker is just what might have been
expected of him. 1t was consistent
with his record as a leader of Republi-
cans. He has never dragged party diff
ferences into campaign. He has al
ways sought to unite his party against
the common enemy, and settle party
differences at time when the success
of his party is not in jeopardy. His is
the loftiest position partisan could
occupy. Mr.. Foraker has received
many kilograms greeting him as the
SAVIOR of the Republican ticket in Ohio.
Among the telegrams he received were
warm congratulations from Senator
Hanna. Chairman Dick was enthusias-
tic in hailing him as his own successor.
Enthusiastically Senator Foraker oc-
cupies position today that is most
| gratifying to his true friends, those
who stand for reunited Republican
party in 0hie.-Marion Star.

AN EXPLANATION
OF the Part the Anti Saloon League
Took i'm the Late Election.

Special Dispatch to Commercial Tribune.
Columbus, o. Nov. 10.-In reply to
criticism of the Antisaloon League for
it's hard fight against Caldwell for the
Lieutenant Governorship, Rev. Mr..
Baker made the following statement:
"The Antisaloon League has not been
fighting the private habits of men, but
their official conduct and their attitude
on the question of local option only.
We do not care whether Patrick or
Caldwell drink, if they do. The league
is strictly anti-saloon, as its name i'm
plies. Patrick was in favor of local
option. For that reason it is safe to
say that we swung 40, 900 votes to him.
1--WE openly notified the liquor inter-
ests at the outset of Caldwell's nomina-
tion of our bitter hostility to him, SC
they had time to do their best for their
champion. Further, our fight was sue
cessfully directed against as many
Democratic candidates for the Legis
lature as against Republicans.
"We claim the credit for having de
feated ten members, eight Representa-
tives'and two Senators, as follows: Blis
(Rep.), Guernsey County; Arbenz rep.
Ross County; Kemple Dem.), Sunni
County; Taylor (Rep.), Mahoning Coun
| ty; Bracken (Dem.) Franklin County
Locke Dem, Madison County; the tw
, Democratic Senatorial candidates i
| the Tenth and Thirty-third Senator's
Districts.''

AGUINALD0 AND HIS ARMY In
CLOSE QUARTERS.
THOUGHT THEY WILL NOT BE
ABLE TO ESCAPE.

Manila, Nov. BIS. M. T.)-Reports
received from Generals Lawton, Mac
Arthur and Young convey the impress
ion that Aguinaldo and his army are
bottled up. The slippery Filipino
leader. who has escaped from the
Americans several times, is believed to
be in a tight place, and his capture is
looked for. ED. L. KEENE.

THEIR USUAL TACTICS.
FILIPINOS REITERATED IN HASTE AFT

FILIPINOS REITERATED IN HASTE AFT
Err A FEW vOLLEYS.
Manila, Nov. 12.-1O a. m.-General
Macarthur and General Lawton closed
in on Tarlac. Communication with
distant points is impossible except by
means of the Government wire, which
is crowded with official business.
General Macarthur took Banban yes
terday. This is supposed to be the
strongest position held by the Filipinos
except Tarlac.
The brief accounts of the engage
ment received indicate that the rebels
fought according to their recent tao
tics, retreating after firing few vol
leys. One officer of the Thirty-sixth
Regiment is the only American report
ed killed. General Macarthur began
his advance at daylight, Colonel Smith
with the Seventeenth Regiment, on
his right; Major Bells command and
the Thirty-sixth on the left, and the
Ninth in the center.
Colonel Smith encountered small
force at o'clock, easily dispensing the
rebels. Major Bell secured position
on the mountain, from which he poured
an enfilading fire from rifles ant
Hotchkiss guns upon the first line o
the enemy's trenches. The Filipino
stood the fire for twenty minutes, ant
then retreated to the mountains. Gen
eral Macarthur entered Bamban at i
O'Clock, and Colonel Smith occupied
Capas, the first town beyond.
General Lawton's headquarters
/ still at Cabanatun.
7 General Young, with his cavalry an
} infantry, is still pushing ahead throug

HANNA TO RETIRE
He Sees His Leadership VIII Jeopar-
die the McKinIey's Success.

On our first page will be found an
article from the ST. Louis Democrat,
stating that Mr.. Hanna has decided, in
view of the results of the late election,
to retire from leadership in the Repub-
lican party. The Democrat is a strong
Mckinley paper, and is nearer Nc
Kinley organ than any paper in the Mis-
sissippi Valley-seems to stand nearer
the throne. 1t is to Mr.. Hanna's s credit,
that he can read the handwriting on
the wall. His leadership is not only
Objectionable in Ohio, but owing to his
bossism and his Identification with and
defense of trusts, he has made himself Of
fensive to hundreds of thousands of Re-
publicans throughout the country. And
the party leaders feel that to make him
Chairman of the National Committee
during the. coming campaign would
jeopardize McKinley's election. Mr.
Hanna shows more wisdom in recogniz
| ing the situation than he did in assum
ing the role of boss, and he will be
given credit accordingly.
President Mckinley thinks the gen
eral result in Ohio has vindicated Mr.
| Hanna; but the President simply want
to poultice the sore place. He recog
nizes the demands of the situation a
well as the other leaders of the party
and will not jeopardize the success of tn
party and defeat his reelection, to saw
Mr.. Hanna's feelings, when he knows
would only result in Mr.. Hanna's ever
lasting overthrow.

TO- ENFORCE GAME LAWS
ATTORNEY GENERAL INTERPRETS
SUPREME COURT DECISION.
The Chief and Special Wardens Not
Affected By the Ruling Against
County Officers.

Special Dispatch to Commercial Tribune.
Columbus, o., Nov. 10.-The follow
ing is in substance the opinion of At
torney General Monnett, just rendered
as outlining the duties of the fish and
game wardens of the State, in answer
to requests for an Interpretation of the
recent adverse decision by the Supreme
Court relative to county Game War
dens, and also as to how to best enforce
the laws in question::
There is nothing in this opinion that
affects the position of the Chief Game
Warden, nor is there anything to affect
the appointment of special warden
for Lake Erie and for the Mercer
County, Lewiston, Six Mile, Licking,
Laramie and Sippo Reservoirs of the
State, as provided for under Section
400. The scope of the decision only
embraces county wardens; holding
them to be county officers, which can
not be true of the special wardens nor
of the office of chief warden.
Since this decision all power is, oi
course, taken from the county wardens
and as such they have no right to per-
form any of the duties devoiving upor
them as county wardens by the provi
sions of the fish and game chapter
There was no power given under the
sections of the law cited to county
wardens to serve any process. They
| had certain powers vested in them
Among others, they could arrest al
violators of the laws of the State en-
acted for the protection of fish an(
game, wherever found in the State
| They could seize, remove, and forth
| with destroy any net, ETC., used in vic
lation of any law enacted for the pro
lection of fish. The question is pro
posed by you, how can the law be en-
forced without the county game war
dens to enforce it?
| You still have the Chief Game War
den and the special game wardens un
| affected by this decision. They cal
act in the premises and in addition
| thereto every Sheriff, Constable Of
other police officer is authorized ant
commanded to enforce the provisions
| above mentioned.
In addition to these / am of the opia
ion that any person may be engaged by
| you to see to the enforcement of the
| laws and execute the powers vested il
'any person" under Section 696S-2.
Affldavits as to the violation of these
laws can be made by such persons, bu
the service of warrants, summons
and other process must be performed
by such officers as are now legally au
thorized to do and perform such acts.

LO! THE POOR INDIAN!
The Cherokees and Creeks VIII
Probably Locate In Mexico.

Agents of the Cherokee and Creeks
Nations are now negotiating for the
removal of these tribes from Indian
Territory to Mexico. If they go, there
will be vast body of the prettiest
lands in the world thrown open to set
tiers. A late dispatch gives the follow
ing particulars of the contemplated
movement:
FIT. WORTH, Nov. 12.-W. J. Lyons,
immigration Agent for the Republic of
| Mexico; j. H. Dick, Secretary of the
| Ketowah Society of the Cherokee In
dians and ex-Chief Clerk of the Cher
okee Council, and Judge j. T. Drew, OF
Ft. Gibson, |. T., are here on business
pertaining to the removal of the Indians
from the Indian Territory.
| Secretary Dick said that there would
be at least 30, 900 to 40,000 Indians whit
would eventually locate in Mexico aftel
this Government has settled with th'
Indians for their tribal property, tn
value of the land of the Cherokees ant
Greeks being about 800, 100000. II
says committee will soon go to Wash
1 ington to confer with the departmen
y as to the disposition of these lands. Th
, Indians do not approve of the allOtmer
plan and prefer to sell outright to tn

! ment has granted eight million acre
e of land for the settlement.

A WARNING
To the Republican Party That 1t Can
not Sell Out to the Whisky
League.

The official vote of Franklin county
shows that Caldwell has only 6 plurality
over Patrick, while Guilbert for Audi
tor of State has plurality OF 14O7.
The Republican party will learn from
this and the cut of Caldwells vote
the State that it cannot
truckle to the whisky league, and con-
tinue to win, in Ohio. The objection to
Caldwell was not that he was the At
torney of the Whisky Ring as his apol-
ogists state; but that he was the candi-
date of the whisky ring, nominated in
their interest by boss Cox. 1t is fact
that in the last Legislature if not the
one before, the Speaker of the House,
if not the Senate, was pledged to the
interests of the whisky league, and
committees that had charge of Tenn
perance measures were packed in the
interest of the whisky ring, and Tenn
perance laws were defeated by it. No
only was this the case as to the officer
elected, but the regular Republican
nominees were said to be pledged tn
same way-Boxwell having secured tn
pledge of support of the Republican
| Representatives of Hamilton County TO
Speaker of the House, by satisfying
them that he was all right on the liquo
question; and Jones showed that he wa
controlled by the whisky interest by h1
rulings in the Senate. This is ne
departure in the Republican party, an
the heavy cut given Caldwell show
that the people will not submit to /
ing thus sold out to the whisky rins

AGUINALDo has fled from the coun-
try Of the Tagalos, the people who have
been fighting our troops in Luzon, to
the mountains 160 miles north, where
the Negrites live. The position he has
fed to, gives him chance to escape,
by one of the rivers emptying into the
sea on the north coast OF Luzon, to
China. 1t will also furnish him an ex-
cellent hiding place, from which to
carry on guerrilla warfare. But he
will find that officers and soldiers who
could run down the Apache Indians in
Arizona and Mexico, will not be slow
in running him down, if he stops to try
a guerrilla warfare.

REPORTERS IN SADDLE.
PRESS CENSORSHIP ABANDONED AMI
FULL NEWS NOW SENT OUT.

PRESS CENSORSHIP ABANDONED AND
FULL NEWS NOW SENT OUT.
Manila, Nov. 12.-The correspondents
of American newspapers are in no wise
hampered now by the censorship, the
rigors of which, early in the campaign
against the Filipinos, caused much dis
satisfaction. Since the recent resump-
tion of operations the correspondents
have been Afforded every facility to re-
port the exact facts regarding the
fighting, and have been allowed to
discuss the situation freely and express
their personal views, no matter wheth-
er they are optimistic or pessimistic.
The censor promptly publishes all
the offici,l reports, and the reporters
are permitted to accompany the troops
on every new movement and can use
the military telegraph from the front.
The news they send over the military
telegraph lines takes precedence over
everything except army business.

1T is reported from Washington that
some congressman who have nothing
against polygamy," and are probably
worse than polygamists, want to
have Roberts admitted to Congress,
and permitted to at once resign his seat.
The people want no compromise. They
want no man admitted to Congress,
who is known violatOr of the law,
whose life is menace to every home IN
the land, and who is the representative
of a system that is Union of Church
and State, and a despotism of the rank
est character; and who was elected be-
cause he was a representative OF that
system. There is no room for Roberts
in the American Congress. Let him
90 back to his wives.

LEFT WITHOUT ANY GAS.
Coal Can Not Be Had, Neither Can
Wood, and Many Families Will
Consequently Suffer.

KOKoMO, Ind, Nov. 10.-Natural gas
is rapidly falling in the northern part
of the Indiana fields. The Dietrich
syndicate has given notice that it will
abandon it's plants in the smaller towns.
Five towns in this county are left to
freeze, and nearly 1000 families will eat
cold victuals and shiver over fireless
stoves. Coal can not be had at any
price and there is no wood in the mar.
ket.
The syndicate controls the gas plants
in over twenty cities and towns in vari-
Gus parts of the State. In indianapolis
the syndicate has shut off the factories
and hotels, as well as public buildings,
and there is scarcity of gas expected
throughout the State. The field pres.
sure has fallen from 320 pounds in 1895
to 1872 pounds.

desiccated corn, popcorn, breakfast
foods of all kinds made from corn,
hominy grits, cornmeal mush, corn
