Whatever the actual trade facts are il is
certain that the most important financial
interests in this country nog have larger
interests in the iron and steel ooipoTa'i Ms
than hitherto. and that they are engaged in
the rounding out of arrangements which
they calculate will bring eventual proets.
Even if at present the outlook seems da k.
IL is not impossible that qu-k changes wi |
come into the situation befo.e long, and
that even before the end OF this year the
iron and steel making corporations which
are most important may be merged int
one combination, under one management
competition eliminated, and much larger
net profits assured. IL can indeed be an
nounced-and upon official authority that
the Federal Steel Company and the Came
gle Company have already satisfactory
understanding. and that the new coutrol of
the American Steel and Wire Company
however, it may be a mere undeistudy for
John W. Gates-is prepared to accept a
similar relationship. II is not i'm o eib e.
not improbable indeed-that the iron q d
steel stocks may generally sell somewhat
lower but that fact will reflect more OF tie
dullness and buying indlsposition OF this
vacation summer time than of anything
else: intrinsicaliy. iron trade stocks hat
have merit are in better financial shape
now than at any time hitherto.

Wall Street is much interested in the
outcome OF the iron and STEEL conference
TO be held in New York on Tuesday. The
managers of the leading steel companies
and producers of merchant Bessemer pig
iron in the Mahoning and Shenango val
leys will be in attendance and the belief
is general that the object of the confer
ence is 10 perfect some agreement to cur
tail the output. The opinion is gaining
ground among iron and steel people that
it is useless 10 try TO stimulate buying
by putting down prices, and that the situa-
lion will not be cleared until consumers
come into the market for supplies. Good
authorities look for a revival of activity
In the iron trade and readjustmen; of
prices not later than September l.
OF the condition of the business Presi-
dent E L. Gary, Of the Federal Steel Com
pany, said Saturday: AT present new
orders are not frequent, consumers are
purchasing only for immediate wants, and
there seems to be a disposition to wait
for bottom prices. ] think that the con-
dtion is not extraordinary or unhealthy.
1t is believed that prices have not reached
the bottom as 10 various products, and
when the producer and consumer are sat
isfied that a reasonable basis has been
reached ! see no reason to doubt the re-
newal of active operations.

Republican Speaking.

E. Il. Franks, of Greensboro, adj
dressed large crowd of Critten-
den Republicans at the court
house Monday afternoon. Senator
Deboe was billed for a speech but
for some reason Mr.. Franks filled
the appointment. He began by
stating that the land, as result Of
the Mckinley administration, was
in perfect glow of prosperity
"Four years ago people we're liter
ally starving, now there is twelve
jobs to every man, where in 1896
there were twelve men to every
job" The picture of Mckinley
prosperity appeared so absurd that
he soon changed the subject. Ac.
cording to him every blessing the
American people enjoy is due tc
Mckinley. Drawing This wonder
full picture of the Mckinley pros
perity to close he announced thai
such a thing as Imperialism was
all rot and bosh. In the mex
breath he said there was such {
thing as imperialism lin the coun
try and that w. j. Bryan was tn,
cause of all. Diving into state at
fairs he began a bitter and mos
abusive denunciation of the Dem
ocrats. Denouncing the Kentucky
Democrats as thieves, he upheld
every act of Taylor. He said tina
| in the Second district $500 Demo
Gratis had recently announced tina
they would support .Yerkes, Will,
only two Republicans had chang
ed, He gave no proof, however
He holds the Democratic leader
responsible for the assassination
of Gov. Goebel. He referred I,
"the work Of the bloody hands o
IGoebel." Rhea and Wheeler h,
declared as the most cowardly
blackguards that ever disgraceC
congress-" He made assertion af
ter assertion, rarely proving
statement. The more bitter, abu
sive and repulsivo his language
the more applause he received
from the audience. All Democra
tic leaders are towards and ras
Gals, all Republicans are saints
judging from his apssch,
Crittenden press. [volume] (Marion, Ky.) 1879-1907, 1900-10-11

oquently he spoke for about two
hours, and throughout claimed the
closest attention of the seven hun
dred people that heard him. His
beautiful statements describing
how the words of the dying Goe-
bel, Tell my friends to be brave
and fearless and loyal to the great
common people," would forever
ring in the ears of the assassins
and conspirators, and his descrip-
ton of how the spirit Of the muir
dered statesman would guard the
ballot box, were wonderful in CON-
position, eloquence, and beauty.
A large number of women were
present, mothers and sisters Of
men who are following the Demo.
cratic chieftain, and to them Mr..
James paid a high tribute.
Mr.. Lewis McQuown was billed
for a speech Monday, but illness
prevented his coming, and Mr..
James came from Louisville to fill
the appointment. The people,
while they would like to hear the
gifted Bowling Green lawyer, were
not disappointed, for Crittenden
county citizens are ever ready,
ever glad to listen to our elo'
quent townsman, Ollie M. James.

POPULIST SPEAKS
And the Republicans Organize a
McKinIey-Yerkes Club.

Ex-congressman Howard, of AL
ALBANIA, was billed for speech at
this place Wednesday night, Oct.
Bird, but Judging from the interest
the Republicans manifested in
getting out a crowd one would
have thought Mr.. Howard WAS
here to make a Republican speech
instead of making a plea for the
Populist nominees. The opera
Pho05e was engaged by the Repub-
lican leaders and at 7 O'Clock the
doors we're opened. Music was
furnished by several boys from the
country, who sang campaign songs
w. B. Yandell, acting as tempo
rary chairman of the meeting sta
ted that a Mckinley and Yerkes
club was to be organized. Carl
Henderson was made chairman and
H. A. Haynes secretary of the
club. One hundred and ninety
seven names were enrolled.
At s o'clock DR.. j. r. Clark in.
troduced the speaker of the even
ing, Mr.. Howard, of Alabama
who opened his address by saying
that the large and attentive audi
ence present showed clearly that
Populism was not dead. He de,
nounced the Democratic and Pop
ulist fusion of 1896. He stated
that his party was the greatest re.
form party of today, and said thai
if it were as rotten as the Repub
lican and Democratic parties he
would want it to die. He dwelleC
at length upon the trusts. Sale
they were here to stay and they
they had complete control of this
government. They can not be de
stroyed The only remedy, he
holds, is for the government t
buy out all the monopolies. Nc
longer is competition the life o.
trade, he declares. Governmental
ownership and direct Legislation
are what the nation needs, he said
On State affairs he bitterly de
nounces the Democrats, and his
denunciation of the late Gov. Goe
bel, Goebelism and the election
law brought forth prolonged
cheers from the Republican audi
ence. He ended by asking all t.
support "our gallant Crittender
county statesman, Hon. A. H. Car
din" for governor. If Mr.. CardiI
lis elected, he declares, we will
have a just election law and pros
porous times in Kentucky. Blu
these remarks we're not so pleas
ing to the Republicans and M
cheers met his tribute to Mr., Car
din.
Col. Cardin organized a Key
club and all Republicans joined.

OLLIE JAMES
Delivers an Eloquent Address at
The Opera House..

One of the largest crowds that
over greeted public speaker here
gathered in the opera hall Monday
afternoon to hear Hon. Ollie M.
James. Every chair in the house
was occupied when the speaker
appeared. and many we're stand
ing,
The national issues we're discus
sed first. Taxing up trusts he APP
pealed forcibiy TO the people. He
showed that every article used by
the housekeeper and farmer was
heavily laden by tributes to the
trusts. He gave prices of ordina-
ry farming implements, showing
the rise in price. The Republican
platform opposes trusts, Roose-
welt opposes trusts, yet Mark Han
ma says there arc no trusts. He
showed that the Republican party
was friendly to the monopolies.
He told of how the Ohio Valley
railroad of West Virginia, owned
and controlled by the Standard Oil
Co, refused to let Mr.. Bryan's
special be transported from Park
ersburg to Wheeling, although
they had contracted to do so. Yet
the trust magnates arc not afraid
of Mr.. Bryan, they say.
Imperialism next claimed his
attention, and the whitening ar.
raignment of McKinley's treat
ment of the Filipinos was me-
with great applause. He proved
imperialism unamerican; he de
clared that the Iwar engaged in t.
make men free had turned into {
war to make them slaves. The flag
stands for liberty here, slavery il
the Philippines; all for the sakC
of commercial interests, the Re
publicans claim, but he holds tina
the lives of the soldiers are ia
more precious than the small mer
cenary gains. The trade amounts
he said, to $2,369,000 and we hav,
spent $189,000,00O and lost thous
ands of men. Where is the gain
Hanna wanted to know who vii
pull down the flag. Bryan says
I'VE will pull it down, as it was rul
up wrong. He showed by histor
that the Americans had man,
times lowered the flag and McKin
ley has pulled it down in China.
The speech of Roosevelt at 81
Paul was read by Mr.. James, i
which Democrats were denounce
as law-breakers and coward
abroad. In eloquent and tellin
words he disproved these state
ments by showing that lawlessnes
reigned i'll a party whose leader
had Democratic contestants mul
dered, and as to being coward
abroad he ran over the heroi
deeds of Dewey, Schley, Merret

Wheeler and Hobson, all Demo-
Gratis, and asked if they were cow
ards. Mckinley prosperity he ri
diculed. Prosperity with $4,000
men on strike for wages that
would support their families. Mr..
Bryan if elected, he declared,
would free the Filipinos. He
stands an opponent to slavery,
fighting for the rights of man.
On state affairs Mr.. James spoke
in n most impressive manner, and
keyed his hearers to the highest
pitch. To be Kentuckian, he
said, was n high honor, but the
Republican party, by its dark acts,
had disgraced the states fair name.
The Goebel contest, in which he
was employ ed as an attorney, was
carefully reviewed. Goebel had a
right to contest. He contested not
under the Goebel law bat under
the provisions of the state consti-
tuition. The Republicans, he de-
clared, had no grounds to grumble
at Mr.. Goebel contesting for the
gubernatorial seat. BY contest,
Tilden, the Democrat, was divest-
ed of the Presidential chair by
Hayes. Scores of southern con-
gressmen had lost their seats be-
cause of contests made by Repub-
licans, and Yerkes was Davidson's
attorney before congress in his
contest for congressman Gilbert's
seat. He told of the action of the
mountaineer army. He related ex-
citing incidents of the lawlessness
of these men he had seen. In a
beautiful and pathetic manner,
that touched the heart of every
man, woman and child present, he
pictured the assassination of Gov
Goebel. If the senator had died
instantly Taylor's title to the office
of governor would have been clear
but Goebel lived to be made gov
ernor of Kentucky. The lawless
acts of Taylor were denounced by
the speaker, and in tones eloquent
and touching, he related the heart
less acts of the militia while Goe'
bel lay dying. Out of the 100
civil liberty Republicans, .293 had
hands stained with the blood of
} fellow man.
Mr.. James showed that John w
Yerkes endorsed all these lawlesi
acts, for he so declared in the Re
publican platform which he wrote
At ono of the mountain towns
where Yerkes spoke, Berry How
: ard, charged with completely il
the Goebel murder, headed a pa
rade. This showed, said the spea
ker. what Yerkes will do if elected
, in regard to pardoning the assas
,. sins of Gov. Goebel.

paying high tribute to the wo
a men of Kentucky. and as he than
! ked the audience, cheer upol
