DEADwOOD, S. d., Oct. 3.-Governor
Roosevelt and Senator Dolliver, of Iowa,
nfifsned their day work of speechmaking
here tonight. The reception of Governor
Roosevelt and the demonstration in Dead
wood as the carriages passed through the
streets was very cordial. Before speaking
in this city the Governor addressed large
crowd at Lead, s. D., near here.
For the second time, to-day, he took oc-
casion TO deny emphatically the story pub
lished about a speech said to have been
made by him at the auditorium about the
Pullman riot. Governor Roosevelt said the
whole story was lie manufactured by
those who knew it was a lie, for liars to
circulate.
from the audience.
After Governor Roosevelt's speech at the
opera house he was followed by Senator
Dolliver.
Governor Roosevelt make short speech
at the opera house at Deadwood, which
could not hold a fraction of the peple
who wished to get I'm. After the speaking
the Governor was made the recipient Of
an elegant bride by the citizens of Sturgis,
Meade county, $50 strong, who had travelled
fourteen miles to attend the night meet
ing. At midnight the train pulled out for
Omaha.
The first speech of the day was at Craw-
ford, Neb., where Governor Roosevelt said:
'Mr. Bryan has said again and again that
if the Republican party under Mckinley
came into power, you would see the prices
of ranch and farm products go down; that
hoo
down. mortgages go up and wage workers
stand idle. Those were the prophecies four
years ago. The fulfillment has been that
here in your own State your mortgages
have decreased 40 per cent; your savings
bank deposits have increased 25 per cent !;
the wage workers have had about 60 per
cent. greater opportunity to work, the price
Of farm products has gone up from Is to 60
per cent. Out here where you raise cat
tie, not only the amount of cattle, but the
value of them have increased anywhere
from 40 TO 90 per cent. Now, under our
free government IL is our inalienable right
to make fools of ourselves If we wish, and

Governor Roosevelt responded briefly, ex-
pressing his thanks for the presentation.
In the course OF his speech he said:
II want TO do something that 1 have not
done in this campaign before now and that
is TO answer one of the lies circulated in
reference to me. l have not hitherto
thought it worth while, but / have read a
telegram from Captain Allen G.. Fisher
stating that the Populists have convinced
labor organizations that Roosevelt said in
the Auditorium after the Pullman strike,
that any man who engages i'm a strike,
or any man who goes where strike is on,
should be shot Captain Fisher states
that some credence has been given that
statement and | therefore want to answer
it. Yet it is almost irritating to have TO
stop TO answer such a statement. for
should suppose any one of common intelli-
gence would know that 1 not only never
made such statement but that am in
capable of making it. AT that time. never
spoke i'm the Auditorium to begin with,
and never said anything out of which
could have been constructed any such
statement. 1t is not only a lie. but it was
made up by people who knew il was lie
to be circulated by others who also knew
IL 10 be lie
This explanation of Captain Fishers tele-
gram was received with general cheering
