once in Inadvertently speaking to all
the people as people Of Oklahoma,
Flynn caught himself and said:

"Bryan is like the rest of us-too busy
to talk 16 to l.
Mr. Flynn concluded with a splendid
tribute to the president, again mert:oncd
Mr.. Long very kindly and a tremendous
burst of applause greeted him as he
closed.
Mr.. Long was then introduced, and for
an hour and half made his strong plea
for Republican principles. He be gan by
telling the Oklahomans that Flynn might
credit him and others with assistance in

all credit on account of his marvellous
organizing ability.

Speaking again Of the iKowa-Comsncae

others went to Cannon on the matter

pose to give them 100000 acres n ere"
But they'll pay sL25 an acre for it"
said Long.
Not while Dennis Flynn IS IN con-
gress," said Cannon.
Long also told the people Of Okllhlua
that their faith and their appreci4t1ln
would be judged by the size Of Flynn

He also explained the ml:cnastrued

'Tbut Reed meant it all right. He meant

you wanted free silver but you didn't get

Long made a powerful speech showing

sistency, and caught the crowd at every

Then. with another plea for Flynn and
an earnest exhortation for Kansas to

EVIDENCE Of CONSPIRACY.
Italian Who Shielded in New York

Italian WHO Suicitieh in New York
Appointed To Kill lIumbert.
New York, July 31.-ren days ago.
an Italian in Paterson, n. D., Carbone
Speranza, laid down his life and so
absolved himself from his pledge to
kill King Humbert of Italy. lie
killed Guizcppi Pessina and then took
his own life. 1t is said that he held
a high place in the Malta. The two
men quarreled and speranza killed
Pessina and blew out his own brains.
\ very strange letter was found in
the murderer's pockets. In the letter
Speranza set forth that he had been
chosen by his anarchist comrades to
kill the king of Italy, but that, ,ow-
ing to the fact that he was in this
country on the date set for the at
tempt at assassination, he could not
fulfill his obligations.
.sThis is not of my bidding wrote
Speranza, "but the good and brave so
ciety willed it February 2 in Italy,
and it was my lot and my order to kill
the king. My number came out in
America, and / could not do it. They
gave me liberty, but ordered that the
will of the society must be obeyed.
They said that because j was i'll
America that | could do nothing, but
l will show them that l do not talk
only. Companions, either
the society or in silence obey the oath
of blood.'

Shutting Down.

Atlanta Constitutions: The cotton
mills of New England, in spite of the
great and according to the republi-
can organs) constantly growing pros
perity of the country, have agreed to
shut down for four weeks to check
1.-THE present overproduction."
This agreement, it seems, was not
entered into n moment too soon, for
the Fall River mills, in some eases,
have already begun to close down.
The spinners say that this action is
singular when only a few weeks ago
many Of the mills were running at
night and on Saturday afternoon.
The Springfield Republican explains
by saying that 80 far has investment
and the capacity for production gone
beyond consumption i'll such staple
lines as cotton manufacturing that
the most promising conditions of
prosperity can be exhausted in a lit
tie time" This explanation would be
very well put if it embodied an ex-
PLANTATION. ALI that can be said for it
is hat it is a short way to curry "a
big horse, and, even SO, gives to the
w~orkingman small promise of "a full
dinner pail for four years. which is
now the campaign cry of the repub-
Leans.

Milford, Mass, July 31.-General
VIM. F. Draper, United States ambas--
sador to Italy, who recently arrived
home, when Informed of the assassin
alton of King Humbert, was very
much affected.
''This must have been the work of
anarchists said lie. Sat the time of
the attack on the empress of Austria
King Humbert was cautioned to be
more careful of his safety, but he
said: 4 must, take my chances, for
that's part of the.trade of kings He
was a man of most invincible courage
1t was his daily habit to drive about
Rome entirely unattended"
The ambassador said Humbert was
very popular with all his subjects ex-
cept those opposed. to all government.

ed: .All the world sympatlaizes with
Queen Marglaerita in her grief"
''The heir to the throne, the prince
of Naples. is an exceedingly able man

the government of Italy will go on

to the throne is the kings cousin, the
duke of Aosta. The duchess of Aosta
was Princess Helene of Orleans,
daughter of the late count of Paris.
She and the duke are generally CON
sidered the handsonies couple in Eu-
rope.
Some of the evening papers here, at
tempt to trace the connection be-
tween the assassination of King Hum
bert and the rancorous propaganda
that the vatican is alleged to have
conducted against the supremacy OF
the sovereign. Those Journals point
out that the assassination occurred in
the vicinity of Milan, where it is al
legged the recent insurrection was
largely fomented by the Roman curia.
A Paris dispatch to the Times says:
"The announcement of the assassi-
nation of King Humbert has created
profound sorrow in official circles
here. All official events have been
Cancelled for the time being"

William Mckinley needs to be
brought face to face with a great cri-
sis in order to demonstrate the fatal
weakness of his character and of his
political methods. The developments

be not a statesman, but a mere denia-
gogue. At present the vital question
in Washington is: '.Shall an extra ses-
sion of congress be called?' The
chief executive hesitates as to the
course to pursue. The e~xigencies of
the situation are perfectly apparent.
The lives of American citizens are be-
ing sacrificed in China, and William
Mckinley hesitates to call congress in
extra session for fear that among
other legislation that might be passed
would be the antitrust bill now hang
ing fire in the senate. The passage of
this bill would ALLEVIATE the large cor
porations from the republican party.
and they would no longer contribute
to its campaign fund. William Me.
kinley is today balancing the lives
and ono OF the American women
subject to Chinese ~depredations in the
scale against the contributions of
large corporations for campaign pur-
poses, and at the present time the
contributions weigh the heavier.

GOOD NEWS FOR DEMOCRATS.
Many Papers That Opposed Bryan
In 'OO SupDort Him Now.

W.
AS was to be expected, the republic.
an press is making M much as posi-.
BILE of anything which by any means
can be construed us democratic defec-
ton. but happily for the prospects of
success for the democratic ticket there
is very little out of which the repub-
lican press can this year extract com
fort.
Four years ago it took about two
columns n day for n week or two to
give the names of democrats who were
not supporting the ticket. This year,
after great industry, the local repub-
ican press has found enough nalne
to fill possibly n half column, where's
as, We're the democratic press to print
the names of men who supported Nc.
kinley fonr years ago but are going
to vote for Bryan this year, 1t would
be no trouble to fill columns of space
in this way.
h contrast is a pleasant one for
democrats also in the matter of news
papers which are supporting the party
nominees which We're against them ill
1896. Then alnost every day, early in
the campaign, the detection of some
leading democratic paper was g%lecful-
~ by the republicans, and
the situation in this respect was nee
e%ssarily most discouraging to those
who stood by the ticket. Now it is
the other way. Now every day sees
the announcement that some paper
which vas for Mckinley in 1896 will
support Bryan this year. We nave
mentioned some of these papers. The
New York press was almost solidiy
against the democratic ticket four
years ago, now only the dyed-in-the-
woll republican organs, or trust pa
Pers like the New York Times, are
heartily supporting Mckinley, and
that great moulder of opinion, the
World, which was against Mr.. Bryan
in 1896, is advocating his election now.
In ChicSgo the contrast is even
greater, for four years ago the demo-
cratic ticket had no English newspa-
per support in that great city. while
now 1t has three powerful newspapers
fighting its BATTLES. the Chronicle, Rec
s,d and Mr.. Hearst's new paper, the
American.
In Buffalo but one English paper,
the Times. was supporting Mr.. Bryan
four years ago, now he has the sup
port of three, the Times, the Courier
and Enquirer, while the Drmokrat
and Nolksfreund among German pa
pers are vigorously supporting him.
In view of such facts there is every
reason this year for democrats to take
heart and work with confidence and
enthusiasm for the election of Bryan
and Sterenson.-Butfalo Times.

NEWS SHOCKS ALL EUROPE.
Tragedy in Italy Causes Grief and
apprehension.


London, July 31.-All Europe was
profoundly stirred by the news of the
assassination of King Humbert of
Italy at Mona Sunday evening. Be
You'd the brief announcement of the
fact, nothing with regard to the as
s%assination of King Humbert has been
allowed out of Mona. At noon the
News correspondent telegraphed that
not the slightest details of the ca
tastrophe had transpired.
Perhaps in no country was the
news of Humbert's assassination re-
ceived with deeper sympathy and
greater horror than in Great Britain.
For the last few years, more especial
~ the last few months during the
South African war, the italian minis
tiers, rejecting the attitude of the
throne, have shown undying friend
ship for Great Britain, even when the
rest of Europe was inveighing against
England and her policy. Queen Vic
toria was naturally Mortified at the
ly telegraphed her condolences to
Queen Margherita.
1t is stated in official circles that
the release of Sipido, the as%sailant of
the prince of Wales, has been followed
by an enormous increase in the circu-
lation of anarchistic literature. 1t is
thought exceedingly likely that the
assassination of King Humbert was
directly traceable to this misplaced
leniency.

married in 1896, is childless, the heir

Nor is anything more significant of
the perilous drift of the present poll
cy than the spectacle of the leaders Of
the republican party engaged in a

that began as freedoms champion,
which. in it's days of glory, took on
its lips continually the sacred pre-

A Chance for Some "Sound Money"

A Chance for Some "Sound Money"
Men to Make Explanation.
If 16 to 1 is not the correct ratio for
adding silver dollars to our stock of
metallic irrcdeemablc money, why
does not some .ssealnd money writer
explain.
i. Why President Mckinley and Sec
rotary Gage, during May. 1900, coined
3,1s2.4v6 dollars ut 1t to 4?
q. Why President Mckinley and Sec
rotary Gage have ordered the mints TO
coin 3,120,076 silver dollars at liz to l.?
3. Why President Mckinley and Sec
rotary Gage, since March 4, 1891, have
coined 44,299,6G1 silver dollars at liz
to i?
4. Why President Mckinley and
Secretary Gage have ordered the
mints to run night and day coming
each day 100000 silver dollars at 10
to j?
If the republican party is not in fa-
vor of coinage at this rutio of is to 4;
if the Sound money" men of the
country nre not In favor OF the COIN
age of silver dollars at this ratio of is
to ], why is it done by their repre-
scntaiives, Mr.. Mckinley and Mr..
Cage Why has no objection been
made by them, why is this wholesale
coinage of silver dollars at rs to /
lluded by them as Sound finance,
and why are these 5o-cent dollars
called Sound money!"
What honest objection can a repub-
lican or Sound money" man have to
the ratio of 16 to 4? 1t is his own
ratio. 1t is the M he believes in and
uses. Not one republican or Sound
money man who lives who has ever
proposed any change in this ratio of
16 to i, which has stood the test of
years, and which cannot be changed
without destroying the financial sys-
TENS of all countries. Nor docs one
live who has rejected to coinage at
this ratio, provided he could do the
coming and reap the "prosperity"
that followed.
Has Mr.. Mckinley coined 1929, G6l
silver dollars at l6 to i for any other
purpose than 10 increase our pros
pcrity?' Has Mr.. Mckinley worked
off oil the people. or put in c%ircula-
tion," in the past three years, SODA
ola more of these silver bricks"
than he found in circulation i'm 1897
in order to cheat the people. or to get
the credit for the ''prosperity' they
aided in securing?

Analysts OF McKinley,s speech.

A correspondent of the New York
World has been at the trouble to make
IL quantitative examination of Presi-
dent McKinley's speech TO the COM
mittee notifying him of his nomina-
ton. with the following result:
Seven thousand and seventy-four
words were devoted to money and sill
Yer.
Three hundred and thirteen words
to Imperialism and the Philippines.
Two hundred and forty-two words
to praise of republican record.
One hundred and twenty-siN words
to protection.
Eighty-two words to China.
Seventy-five words to Hague confer
cnce.
Sixty-six words to Hawaii.
Fifty-seven words to Spanish war.
Twcnty-thrce words to. Cuba and
Porto Rico.
No words to trusts.
According to this method of deter
mination it is very clear that the sill
yer question is the paramount issue in
the presidents opinion. But the
method is faulty. Very often the
most mischievous of momentous dc
examinations take the very briefest
form of expression, like the lovers
yes or no" But the World writer
has cleverly shown what Mr.. McKin-
ley thinks it best to talk about and
best to say nothing about
