TEDDY TACKLES INTERPRETERS

KINGSTON, N. Y, October 22nd.-
Governor Roosevelt finished the first
day of his flying campaign through
the State in Kingston tonight. Spec
tators interrupted the speaker with
questions in every instance.
AtWest Nyack, a spectator shouted
"hurrah for Bryan" and MIR. Roose-
welt replied, why don't you hurrah
for Altgeld and Aguinaldo?
Another spectator called out "What
about the ice trust?" and he answered:
This election will be decided by the
patriots and men of sense in the
country who ontnumher the iunker
shouters of your type. The ice trust
will be attended to in a proper legal
way"
A man at Newburgh said, "Why
did VOC call Democrats towards and
dishonest"
Roosevelt flung back quickly this
characteristic reply: "It's a lie, /
never said such a thing. 1t is Dem
ocrats, good Democrats, who will swell
our majority"
Towards the end of his remarks
the Governor was interrupted a num-
Der of times by some shouts of "What
is the matter with Bryan" "Down
with the trusts"

A SCURRILOUS ATTACK.

The New York SIN makes itself
ridiculous by denouncing the plac-
ing of Gen. Robt. +. Lees name in
Helen Gould's Temple of Fame. Its
editor is the single conspicuous indi-
vidual who objects to this act of COM
mon justice. In lengthy editorial
on the subject the San makes sour
rllous attack upon the great Confed-
crate commander and Southern SOL
diers in general. The attack is to-
tally unworthy of a metropolitan
newspaper, and no man in the South
believes for one moment that it rep
resents the sentiment of Northern
manhood. If it did General Lees
name would not be among the chosen
list of immortals, for majority of
those who selected subjects for the
Temple of Fame are Northern citi-
zens.-EG.

IN nearly every communication an
ltem of one or more horses which
have died from strange affection.

horse to swallow, and when taken IL

The proper care of the crazed and

not for people afflicted with a malady

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
From Our Regular Correspondence

| ASulNUloN, OcC., SSnQ, 1910.
MIR. Mckinley is needed in Ohio to
help the Republican bosses hold that
state in line, and he left for Canton
today, and will practically manage
the rest of the Republican campaign
IN Ohio. He processes confidence i'm
his election, but his acts indicate
that he has grave doubts. News
from Mr.. BrYan's trip through New
York has been discouraging to him
and he is afraid that he may lose the
state. He talked this over with Nj.
Roosevelt, who has now gone back to
New York, bu the has no confidence
IN Teddy's ability to help him any in
that state, because he knows that
Teddy is not in touch with the Platt
machine, and that the cowboy method
of campaigning isn't popular in the
Empire State.
This is the way the big Bryan
meeting in New York city impressed
New York Republican who attend
ed 1t, and who is now in Washington:
Bryan's visit to New York was time
ly, and If the Republican managers
IN that state do not wake up and
counteract the effects of that meeting
there will be something doing next
month.
Although it is now acknowledged
that the alleged imperial Chinese de-
cree ordering the degradation and
punishment of Prince Tuan and
other high Chinese officials for aid
ing the Boxers in their attack on
foreigners was a faxed document,
Mr.. Mckinley and Secretary HAY
continue to hob-nob with the Chinese
minister, and their understrappers to
assert that the administration is per-
fectly satisfied of the good faith of
the Chinese government. If that be
really true, the administration is al
mighty easy to satisfy. 1t is well
known that the same satisfaction is
not EXPRESSED by any other govern
ment, except Russia, which has long
been understood to con troll the EN-
press Dowager and Ii Hung Chang.
and by France, which is merely play
ing the role of ''me too" to Russia.
Americans will wake up some fine
morning and discover that Mr.. Nc
Kinley is also Russia's "me too"
The administration was greatly
surprised by the official announce
ment that Germany and England
had formed an alliance for the pur-
pose of acting together in the settle
ment of the Chinese difficulties. The
first intimation that this government
had of such an alliance was the pub
LEGATION of its terms in the newspa-
pers, which was quite q slight to
the amateur imperialist from the two
big professionals.
a Republican scheme to carry Vir-
ginia was unearthed just in time to
put the Democrats of the state on
their guard. While pretending that
they were making no effort to carry
Virginia, it was discovered that
Hanna had sent a lot of money into
the state for the purpose of getting
all the Republicans registered, while |
Democrats, from feeling of security, |
were neglecting to register. Fortn-
nately, the scheme was discoyed in
time for the Democrats to get their
voters registered.

THE CRISIS IN CHINA.

The Fourteenth United States In.
fantry has departed from Pekin. II
was escorted beyond the walls by the
other American troops. The ROYAL
Welsh Fusileers have also departed.
The date of the meeting of the for
elgn ministers with Prince Ching
and LII Hung Chang has not yet beer
definitely fixed. Some of the minis
ters have not yet received instructions
from their governments; two. are alb
sent from the capital and one is i'll.
The Celestials firmly believe that if
three boys are born in triplet they
must be at once beheaded, according
to Chinese law, as prophecy exists
that one of a triplet of bows will be
the future destroyer and invader of
the empire. In this matter, girls,
who are always held in small esteem,
do not count.
Oriental avices by the steamer Glen
ogle say with reference to the flight
of the Empress Dowager from Pekin
that in accordance with the regular
practice of the Chinese officials in
similar cases false report of victories
overthe allies were persistently given
to the palace, with the result that
the court was lulled into feeling of
tancled security. 1t was not until
the allies had actually entered the
capital, it is said, that the real facts
became known to the Empress.
1t is not the purpose of the STATE
Department to act upon the sugges-
ton contained in the British German
agreement respecting China, and give
its adherence, for several days, at
least. The subject is one of sufIi
Client Importance to warrant. careful
consideration, and especially is it de
slrable that some further light be
shed upon the third clause of the
agreement before the United States
acts, though it is not doubted that
at least qualified adherence will be
given.
Confirmation has been received
here of the execution of Chang Yen
Hoon, the former Chinese Minister
to the United States. Chang was a
loyal adherent of the Emperor and a
warm supporter of the latter's reform
movements. When the Empress
Dowager supplanted the Emperor
two years ago he was ordered to be
beheaded, but through the iuterven-
ton of the American and British
Ministers his punishment was COM
muted to punishment in the distant
province of Kashgaria. 1t now APP
pears that the Empress Dowager,
taking advantage of the late reign
OF terror at Pekin, and knowing
Changes influence with the Emperor,
ordered hisexecution by decapitation.
