ENEMIES AT HOME.

Evidence of most convincing char
acter is constantly being produced to
the effect that the worst enemies of the
country in the matter of the foreign
complications are not the Tagals in
the PHILIPPINES, but that they are the
anti-everything rebels of our own
land. Another bit of this evidence Is
given herewith.
Major E. F. Taggart, Commanding
the End Battalion, 2Sth Infantry U. S.
Volunteers, now serving in the Phil
ippines, in letter to Joseph Bishop,
Secretary of the State Board of Ar
bitration, dated at Balayan, p. l., Sept.
Both, says; But we are getting along
a mighty sight better than l ever
thought we would, and I'll not be sur
prised if after the election on Novem-
ber 9th, when Mckinley will be reel
ected, as he surely will be, the entire
trouble will cease, for the only people
we are now fighting are our enemies in
the United States"

DUTY TO PERFORM. :

In this connection let me call your
attention to a particular duty which
you have to perform. | do not think
there is the slightest doubt as to the
election of VIM. Mckinley. He is al
ready elected except the counting of
the votes, and that will be done on the
9th of November. We want his second
administration to be as brilliant as his
first We want to hold on to the pros
perity that his first election brought to
this country. We have the President
in the White House, and we want a
Republicn House of Representatives.
The Senate is all right, and. will re-
main so for years to come. | won't let
any Democrat get my job if | can help
it. (Applause.) But as to the House
of Representatives, let me speak to
yau plainly; speak to you as an Ameri-
can citizen. If | have one duty above
another to perform tonight it is to
urge you to support Mr.. VanVoorhis
and see that he is elected to Congress.
By so doing you will crafty President
Mckinley and perform your duty as
Republicans loud applause.). l un-
derstand that the opponent of Mr.. Van
Voorhis is a resident of your city and
a good fellow. If so, keep him at
home where you can enjoy his society.
Don't send him down to Washington,
where he would be out of harmony,
because you would send him where he
could do no good. Let us remember
only that we are Republicans and that
we are going to elect the whole ticket
from VIM. Mckinley down to the last
man. Great applause. .)-Senator For
aker at Auditorium, October 26th.

C0XEY'S NEW ARMY.

General Jacob S. Coxey, who six
years ago marched at the head of an
army of several unemployed working
men into the National capital, Wash
surrounding the White House; is to-
day advertising for men to work on a
steel casting plant which he is erect
ing in Mt. Vernon, o. Mr.. Coxey ex-
pets to spend $25O,OOO on these build
ings. He is personally experimenting
the construction Of tho plant. go
"The men in this section are. too
busily engaged at the present time In
the factories and upon the farms"
said one Of the foremen at the plant
"and as a consequence we are com
PEELED to get along as best we canlwith
only a half force" .N ~ Ioi
General Coxey has made a., great
deal of money out of his silica sand
quarries, near Massilon, o.,~withn the
last two years, or since the; great re-
vival of the steel business, He owns
the quarries from which the sand used
by the Carnegie and other great steel
casting companies is secured, his
sales or that purpose running 500 a
day.
Last April he decided to locate his
plant in Mt. Vernon, and purchased an
enormous tract\ of land there. In
May the ground was broken for one of
the finest steel casting plants in the
country, and ever since he has been
hard at work with all the men he
could secure pushing the plant to COM
pletion. The plant will employ when
in operation 500 men, at an average
wage of from so to $3.50 day.
Mr.. Coxey has constructed a railroad
nearly a mile in length, which con
meets with the Baltimore & Ohio and
Pennsylvania Railroads. He states
that he believes other large manufac-
turing concerns can be induced to
build their plants on the ground now
controlled by him and connected with
the two great railroad systems by his
track.-Commercial. Tribune.

The Leader is not the guardian of
Mr. VanVoorhis, neither are we famil-
lar with his campaign plans, but
through the public press we are advls-
ed that all of next week he has en-
gagements in his home county of Mus
kingum, fact which Mr.. Ellenwood
probably well knew when he mag
unanimously consented to cancel all of
his engagements. every man, woman
and child in the Fifteenth Congress
sional district well knows that he
hasn't had political engagement dur
ing the present campaign.) Mr.. Van
voorhis, in the light of open day, has
been discussing the issues OF the cam
paign from the public platform for
weeks, and everyone knows his posi-
tion. He was in Washington county
for three days this week-a fact
which Mr.. Ellenwood well knew. He
also knows that his address is Zanes-
vile, Ohio.
The Leader is greatly obliged to Mr..
Ellenwood for the favor he has confer
red upon us by allowing us to publish
his views on the burning issues of the
hour in the terse way heretofore CIV
en-. If he has any more views an any
more burning issues we will gladly pub
lish them.
Another thing, the Leader hereby
urgently invites Mr.. Ellenwood to ex-
press himself on any or all of the
planks of the Kansas City platform.

And Mr.. Thebodean Lost 1900 Sheep
In Consequence. "
A. c.. burst, of Chinook, who is in
the city is authority for story of a
peculiar loss of many hundreds of
sheep near his home. During the re-
cent storm" he said, John Thebod
can, who is an extensive sheep man,
in our section, lost between 1900 and
1000 sheep. He had gone into his
cabin and the sheep, which were near
by soon wandered out on the ice
which covered a small lake, attracted
by the grass which projected above
the top of the ice. When he discOv-
cred them he started the dogs to
round them up and get them off the
ice. but the endeavor was not sue
cessful, instead, the sheep punched,
the ice broke and hundreds were
drowned. Others commenced to pile
and many hundreds more were smoth-
cred. Out of band of between 1000
and 5000 at least 800 were lost.

CITY DUMPING GROUND.
Ten Acres Purchased by City Council
At Its Regular Meeting.


The city council met in regular SEES
sion Monday night and received the
usual monthly reports of city officials,
approved number of bills and issued
several building permits. When the
regular business had been disposed of
the committee which had been ap-
pointed to select a suitable piece of
land on which the city garbage could
be dumped, reported in favor of ten
acres of the Reiter ranch which
could be purchased for $500. There
was some discussion on the matter
after which, on vote of the council,
it was decided to purchase the ground
and the city surveyor will establish
the lines today.
The question of contracting for the
removal of garbage was discussed and
it was decided that no contracts
would be entered into. Property own
ers will be notified to clean up their
premises and should they refuse to
do SO arrest will most likely follow.
The aldermen say that there can now
be no reason why the streets, alleys
and yards cannot be cleaned, and
kept clean. and that the excuse mo
dumping ground" won't go.

ELk's TEETH.
Viii Not Be Worn by 3. p. o. e.
Members in Denver

mSUtUSIS III OCuvCTs
At a meeting of the Colorado
Spring lodge, No. 500, B. P. O. E.,
a committee was appointed to draft
resolutions condemning the practice
of wearing elks' teeth. A copy of
these resolutions will be sent to every
lodge in the United States, with a re-
quest that each lodge adopt them.
The purpose of the action is to pro-
tect the herds of elk in the west. A
member of the Elk's lodge, recently
returned from western trip and at
a meeting of the lodge, reported that
hundreds of elks were wantonly
slaughtered for their teeth. He said
that if the butcheries were confined
at the present rate, the herds would
soon become extinct. The members
on a rising vote pledged themselves
not to engage in the traffic of elks'
teeth and to discourage others from
entering it. They also bound them
selves to wear the elk's head of the
order as a badge instead of the real
elks' teeth.
The manufacturing jewelers. an |
jObbers. who have been holding the
price of elks' teeth up and who have
been endeavoring to corner the mar
ket, as well as those individuals who
have collected hundreds of the teeth
and have been holding them at a
high price. will be the loosers, should
the movement become general, and
the country greatly benefited by the
protection the game would receive .

good reason why the city members

THE RUSH TO
CAPE NOME
Many Going over the Ice From
Dawson, 1000 Miles Away.
Washington Star }

The Cape Nome excitement continues
undated, according to report to the
State Department, dated December 9Th,
from Ronald Morrison, Vice Consul at
Dawson City. He writes that many people
are making preparations to get to Cape
Nome from Skagway via Dawson over the
ice. tourney of 1000 miles. He says II
all who are contemplating it make The
trip this winter, there will be one contin-
uous line of people from Bennett to st.
Michaels. The transportation companies
have already arranged to handle 1900
passengers. The route to Cape Nome via
Dawson is said to be four weeks earlier
than the all-sea route, because of the open
water along the shore north of the Yukon
river.
Business at Dawson was said to he dull
though prices are maintained. The wea-
Their was comparatively mild, from IL
above zero to lS below. This mildness
has interfered with mining by flooding the
drifts, and the gold output will fall short
of the estimate of $25 100000.

AMONG the many things which the
British government provides for its
soldiers are blank forms for a will
According to Harper's Weekly. "the
war Office supplies every soldier that
goes to the front with three blank
forms Of wills-the first for the man
who wishes to leave all his property
to one person; the second for those
who wish to bequeath legacies to
several persons, and the third for use
Of married soldiers like most other
people, usually neglects to make his
will until the very last moment, and
frequently waits until wounded or
dying upon the field. 1t is said that
formerly the men would scribble their
will in few words on some stray
bit of paper or on the inside Of he'll
met, the lid Of cartridge box, or
perhaps on a stone lying near by"
The idea is good one. and the
Philadelphia Medical Journal sug-
gests that "if hospitals and emer-
gency physicians, as we'll as soldiers.
were provided with such blanks. they
might prove Of grest convenience in
many cases Of emergency and severe
illness. and legal complications might
many times BE- avoided by their use. :"
