Hanna Proves That He Is Not
Afraid to Discuss Trusts.

Cleveland. O., Oct.20.-Senator Hanna
in a speech before the Fifth district Re
publican club last night defined his po-
sition regarding the trusts.
On this subject he said:
s'The Democrats say am afraid to
talk about trusts. That settles it I'm
going to talk about them This comb
nation of capital for one purpose or an
other is not a political question at all.
1t is a business question and ought not
to have been brought into politics.
When our industries were in their in
fancy England and other countries
came along and sold goods in this coun-
try at less than the price asked in their
own country. Then followed the pro-
tective tariff law formulated by that
friend Of the WOrkingman, William Nc
kInIey- Having secured this protection
American manufacturers went abroad.
They are making rapid strides and are
successfully competing with the whole
world. It is evident, however, that they
can not continue to do so unless they
have combined capital
we ought to own and control our
own merchant vessels We then would
be in shape to make our own rates and
compete with other nations on an equal
footing. We have now reached the
stage when we are doing more export
ing than importing. The last year was
the first year in the history of the coun-
try that this was true, but we must
look to the future We must stand pre-
come This formation OF combines is
simply an evolution in business meth
DDS. Should railways own their own
steamship lines there would be a mark
ed change in the rates. All this re-
quires capital, and such tremendous
amount that no ordinary corporation
could stand it. The so-caIled trusts
are not new. They have been found in
England and Germany as far back as
two hundred years, and are increasing
Therefore, from q business point of
view, the formation of these combina-
lions. in one sense is one step forward
The Democrats would have you believe
that they are terrible anacOndas that
will swallow Us all up. However, if the
trusts are n menace to the country,
what party better than the Republican
party can give you reief2 When it
comes down to plain facts, the various
labor organizations are q sort of trust

They are for the purpose, I believe, of

they wouldn't speak to each other.
Now they are frank enough to admit
that the Columbia is the better boat by
ten minutes over a thirty mile course
The boats will race again today and
even if Columbia wins, it is possible
that two more races viii be sailed A
proposition to this effect has been made
and Sir Thomas seems anxious that it
be carried out He has been greatly
disappointed in the showing his boat
has made, but believes she might do
better over a triangular course in a
heavy wind and has said that he would
be very pleased to sail two more races.

Cia was sad one. He brings with him the
body Of his wife who succumbed to the
climate in the Philippines Mrs. Buchan
had been a bride but a few months.
When the Kansas regiment left home to
fight its country's battle in thePhilppines
there was an understanding between Cap
tain Buchan and hie sweetheart, Miss Lu-
cinda NJ. Smith of Lawrence. Kan. SepaTa-
tion was more than the two could stand
so with the exchange of letters came a de-
termination to join their lot in the fortunes
OF war. They were married and the young
bride followed her soldier lover to San
Francisco with his regiment. Here the
first cloud fell across their honeymoon. The
officers were not permitted to have he com
pany Of their wives on the transports and
separation seemed inevitable. But the
Kansas girl had pluck. With the wife Of
another officer she became a stowaway on
the Indiana, and although the government
tried to prevent it she journeyed as far as
Honolulu on the way to Manila before she
was parted from her husband. Then COM
PEELED to leave the transport she followed
Captain Buchan within a few days on the
regular steamer and shared his lot up 10 the
time of her death, Her body will be
taken to Kansas for burial.
