Talks.

The Canton boys who returned last
preparing claims to present to the au-
thorities at Washington to have the
wrongs perpetrated upon them by Gen.
Otis righted. From the reports of the
soldiers Otis has been resorting to all
sorts of coercion to compel discharged
soldiers to re-enlist, thus making fa-
vorable showing to the Washington au-
thorities. In discussing the matter this
morning Michael Walsh, one of the four
boys who was in the TwentyThird,
said:
"Otis has no regard at all for the
common soldier. He treats them worse
than yellow dog and don't care what
becomes of them. The officers under
him are not much better. They are all
working for promotion. They don't
care anything about the war. I don't
believe they tried to close it up. They
are Just prolonging the fight so as they
can get promotions. Otis keeps holding
them back all the time. Wheaton, Nc
Arthur and Funston are all right and
they wanted to go ahead and finish up
the work but Otis would not let them.
And then he has now got to robbing
the boys to make them re-enlist. He
just kept $343 of our money.
| "It was the rule to pay soldiers when
they were discharged at the rate of n
days pay and rations for every twenty
piles Travelled. They paid II right along
until few weeks ago, just before we
left. Then Otis stopped 1t so as the
boys would stay in Manila and re-enlist.
lOur travel pay at so cents day, which
lit amouts to, would have been $34S
apiece. Otis thought that by telling the
lboys that only those who re-enlisted
Iwould get this that he would force
Ithem to go back into the army Two

visions of the statutes. The building

A News-Democrat reporter called on

Bryan's utterances as to the local fea-

R. B. BROWN
Says That the Republicans Are
Weaker Than a Month
Ago.
Special to News-Democrat.

| Special to News-Democrat.
GAINESVILLE, o., Oct. 17.-An indepen-
dent local newspaper published in this
city, has the following interview with
General r. b. Brown, eX-Commander Of
the G. A. r. of Ohio, and editor and
manager of the GAINESVILLE Courier, the
influential Republican daily here. The
interview has created a sensation:
"The Republican party in Ohio is not
as strong today as it was two months
ago." began the General.
"It would not surprise me in the least
| if John r. Mclean were elected.
IT base my assertion for one reason
upon the fact that it has not been GUS
tomary for political party in this state
to remain in power more han three
consecutive terms. The people want
and demand a change. We are a queer
people in this respect.
II tell you," continued the General
editor, growing eloquent, "the Republic
an press of this state is making a vital
mistake in parading Mclean and his pri-
vate affairs before the voters as it is do
| ing.
REPUBLICAN BLUNDERS.
Mark what tell you, thousands of
Republican votes will be influenced for
| Mclean in the interests of fair play.
Republican papers are treating Mclean
| in disgraceful manner, and it cannot
help but disgust many Republicans and
drive them into the Mclean ranks.
The publication Of the facsimile of
McLean's tax report was grand mis-
take. 1t lost us any number of votes.
THE vital mistake of the Republican
press is briefly this: 1t is paying too
much attention to John r. Mclean and
too little to the principles of the Demo
cratic party"
The General, in answer to the inquiry
of the listener, gave the administration
a little jab. "It is an unfortunate blum
DER" said he, Gin having Mckinley run
ming about the country. Mckinley
should not be allowed to speak in Ohio.
Let me tell you, this war in the Philip
pines is more serious than 1t is generally
regarded"
WHAT FORAKER SAID.
General Brown then branched off in a
reminiscent vein, giving reasons why
the Republicans will lose this fall
when Joseph b. Foraker and James e
Campbell were in the field" said he
Foraker said to me three weeks be-
fore the election: General, am defeat.
ed; Jimmy Campbell has licked me-
said, Foraker, you're crazy, our ticket
will easily win. But election day brought
the defeat of Foraker, and it's ali plair
enough to me now The conditions nov
are the same as then, If anything lit
tie more aggravated"
General Brown, as is we'll known, hal
no particular liking for candidate Nash
His prediction sounds remarkably frank
! coming as 1t does from a Republican
and prominent editor at that.
i In an interview printed few days al
ter the GAINESVILLE convention Genera
Brown predicted the election of Nasl
by 100000 plurality.
