President 1t Cedar Falls.


CEDAR FALLS, Ia, Oct. 1.-THE
president arose almost with the dawn
yesterday and delivered at 6:2O in the
town of Iowa Falls the first of his
series of addresses in Iowa. The presi-
dent said:
''My fellow citizens: It gives me
genuine pleasure to meet and greet the
people of Iowa and as journey through
the state to look into the faces and to
feel the stimulus Of their presence and
the encouragement which I always re-
ceive as have mingled with them.
Since I was last in the state we have
added some new territory. It il no
longer question Of expansion with us;
we have expanded. If there is any
question at all, it is a question Of con.
traction, and who is going to contract?
/ believe, my fellow citizens, that this
territory came to us in the providence
Of God. We did not seek it. It is ours,
with all the responsibilities that belong
to it. and as great. strong, brave ma
tion we mean to meet them and we
mean to carry our education and our
civilization there. I am not one Of
those who would take a laurel from the
brow Of the American soldier or a
jewel from the crown Of American
achievement.

BRYAN OPENS IN KENTUCKY.
Democratic Leader Talks to Blue Grass
Voters at Bardweu.


Voters at Bardwell.
LOUISVILLE, Oct. 1.-THE first days
trip of the Bryan Goebel party through
Kentucky commenced yesterday at
Cairo, His, the first speech of the day
being made at Bardwell, KY, in the
presence of a good natured and good
sized crowd. The special train reached
the Kentucky town at $50 o'clock. In
his opening address, Mr.. Bryan demon
strated his purpose to urge the support
of the Democratic state ticket, headed
by William Goebel for governor. He
held that the question Of whether or
not the next president of the United
States was a Democrat depended
whether Kentucky was Democratic
this fall. He held that it was not a
matter of moment what man headed the
ticket, claiming that any Democrat who
stands for the Chicago platform is bet
ter than a Republican. In national
matters he assailed the attitude Of
President Mckinley as related to the
Philippine islands, asserting that the
presidents declaration that congress
would care for the islands was SUBJ
version of the Declaration of Independ-
ence and the first to be openly made by
president of the United States. The
declaration of the president suggested
the use of the word parliament instead
OF congress and recalled the colonial
days and policy of King George. The
islands did not and could not belong to
US simply because we had paid decay
ing monarchy for them. The silver
question and the Chicago platform as
a whole form the vital questions to be
snl.ed in tha cornincr oo,,tost II, 1onn

estimated that the b0uHuets carried
away by steamer are worth. from $1,000

of these liners whose passenger list does
not produce an aggregate of flowers
amounting to at least $1,000. Most of
these flowers, instead of being thrown
away as soon as they are sent out of the
rooms, which they invariably are after
few hours, are carefully sorted to re-

A Great American Mural Painter.

A Great American Mural Painter.
There is one merit which all La Farge's
brother painters agree in awarding to
him, and that is the power of putting
painting upon the wall so that it does not
change the character of the wall as a
part Of the building. His painting takes
nothing away from the solidity of the
wall which it invests. The upright mass
retains its rigidity and weight, it still
carries the roof, it still holds firmly to
the adjoining walls, it is a massive and
trustworthy part Of the construction, and
than taken from it's permanent and rest
ing quality. How this is done is fully
as inexplicable as is the glow and splen-
dor Of color itself. No one can say alb
stractely and without having the pic
ture Immediately before him how any
such result is attained, nor it is easy to
explain the picture, even to the locker
on, i'll any such terms as will fully ex-
press this quality.-Russen Sturgis in
