DUAL CAMPAIGN OPENING.
Maryland and West Virginia Join
In FirinE Their First Gun.

Cumberland, Md, Sept. 5.-The open
ing of the Democratic campaign for the
states of Maryland and West Virginia
at this place last night was rendered
memorable by the appearance on the
same platform of the Democratic ma
tional standard bearer, Hon. William J..
Bryan, and United States Senator
George L. Wellington, who was elected
rs Republican.
Senator Wellington's speech marked
his formal renunciation of party ties on
account of the issues growing out of the
war with Spain. He had for this reason
prepared his speech with care, and he
read it from typewriter manuscript.
Mr.. Bryan spoke without notes, and
he appeared at the meeting almost imme-
diately after the arrival of the special
train which had brought him across the
state of West Virginia and thus far into
the state of Maryland. The journey had
been an arduous one, covering, including
the trip from Chicago, about "a hours of
railroad riding. Still Mr.. Bryan appear
ed in excellent form, and he spoke with
his customary vim and vigor.
The journey of the presidential candi-
date across the state was not devoid of
labor for him, for while he left the train
but once on the journey he made num-
Der of brief addresses from the rear plat
form of the hindmost car.

fered Il resolution that Reuben l.. Fox
John d. Kenyon, Colonel Baxter, James
S. Whipple, Il. b. Gleason and G. A.
Ball be appointed as secretaries of the

of the usual committees, permanent or
ganization, credentials and resolutions,
and Mr.. Woodruff announced L. Il.
Quigg of New York as chairman of the
committee on permanent organization,
NJ. ]. Dady of Kings chairman of the

mittee on resolutions, with member
from each assembly district on each
committee.
The convention then took n recess.
Upon reassembling Mr.. Dady, chair
man of the committee on credentials, an
nouncpd that 'thcre were no contests in
the entire state" which was greeted with
applause.
The committee on permanent organiza-
tion reported the name of Nevada n.
Stranahan for permanent chairman, and
he was escorted to the chair by Congress-
man Serene E. Payne and Senator Henry
White. He spoke clearly and forcibly.
The sentiment of the convention found
expression in the most prolonged dem

han declared that the span of life would
never see the day when the people would
rclinouish one single inch of the territory
secured at the sacrifice of the blood and
life of citizens of this peerless republic.
The Platform Adopted.
The platform as prepared by the COM
mittee on resolutions was then read by
Chairman Raines and adopted without
dissent.
The platform reviews at considerable
length the policy and achievements of
the Republican party in the nation and
says:
We indorse the administration of President
Mckinley and urge his reelection as the sure
pledge of four more years of development and
prosperity at home and OF honorable influence
and renown abroad We congratulate the people
upon the nomination for vice president of Gov
ernor Roosevelt, whose high place in the admi
ration and confidence of his countrymen, achiev-
ed by long pubic service and especially by his
yalor and success on the field OF battle, has been
distinctly advanced by his splendid record as tho
governor of New York.
1t then takes up state issues and says:
The Republican party has been in control of
the state for the last seven years. During that
time the state has increased greatly in popula
ton, thereby causing relative annual increase in
expenditure Tor many public purposes This is
illustrated in the increased appropriations for the
common schools, which in ten years have grown
from "a, 600 to S5,000,000.
Within the period of Republican control, more
over the state has assumed the expense of caring

Saratoga, Sept. 5.-The Republican
state convention was called to order by
Chairman Odcll of the state committee,
who announced the selection of Timothy
l.. Woodruff as temporary chairman.
Ihe announcement was greeted with
cheers which lasted several minutes.
An enthusiastic Kings county dele
gate shouted, "Three cheers for Tim
othy l.. Woodruff" and these were given
most heartily.
Reference to the Republican position
on the money question, the independence
of Cuba and the Philippine policy was
given hearty applause, but the GNnax
came when Mr.. Woodruff said, "Out of
their bitter experiences the people be-
lieve in the rescue of New York city from
the clutches Of the organization which ex-
lists only to barter every public privilege
and blackmail every private right" For
a time the delegates and audience gave
noisy approval.
The declaration that the Republican
party purposed to pursue policy which
will guarantee that our representatives
and people will be protected as recently
In China called forth burst of ap-
plause, as did Mr.. Woodruff's Dramatic
assertion, "We will not haul down the
American flag"
from every section of the hall, and the
applause was continued until the band
began to play.

lease had expired, and he expected to be
recalled, This was before the present
trouble and was in no way due to any
lack of remittances. AS "A matter of fact
the information reaching here shows that
the Chinese government is now carrying
on its various governmental functions.
There has been a decrease in the reve.
nues due to the disorder, but the regular
system of government business is being
carried on the same as ever. This is so as
TO the Chinese legation here, which is
said to have suffered no Inconvenience by
reason of the upheaval
An official communication received here
through diplomatic channels makes the
rather surprising statement that Lii Hung
Chang is at present using all his efforts
to have one or more of the powers dissent
from Russias proposition, believing that
the rupture of the allies will be of greater
advantage to China than any agreement,
even ON the favorable basis put forward
by Russia.
China's War Preparations
Further evidence that China was pre-.
pairing for war that must follow the ex-
pulsion of foreigners has reached the war
department in letter from Captain
Richard Paddock, commanding Troop X,
HiAth cavalry, guarding tne great lien
tsin arsenal. The letter was sent to
Colonel Carter, assistant adjutant gen
eral, and made remarkably quick time
across the Pacific, having left Tien-tsin
on Aug. Z and arrived here Monday. Its
date is nearly three weeks later than
that of any mail that has reached the
war or navy department from north
China. Captain Paddock writes:
This is a curious place. l have been
here at the arsenal with my troops for
four days. There are thousands of arms
of all makes and millions of ammunition,
uniforms and equipments of every de-
scription. | could easily equip mu-
scum, but situated as we are can take
aothing of any size. find in the library
our own ordnance reports and many
English and American works on arms.
ammunition, etc. All show signs of use.
having slips and marks in many places"
This is regarded as rather conclusive
that China was making ready for the
conflict which her antiforeign generals
knew would be inevitable if they hoped
to remain in power and indicates that the
Boxer movement was somewhat fOrtu-
nate for foreigners in forcing Chna's
hand before the dominating influences
surrounding the empress dowager were
fully prepared for invasion by the allies
The speedy transmission of Captain Pad
docks letter encourages the officials to
expect further reports from General
Chaffee by the middle of next week.

TO EQUIP GUARDS FIRST.
Second battalion VIII Soon Receive
the New Uniforms.

The Savannah Volunteer Guards viii
probably be the first troops supplied by
the state with new uniforms. Col w. G.
Obear, inspector general was written by
an officer connected with the Guards ia
the effort to have him look out first of all
for the command. The reply indicates that
this will be DONE and the Guards may
soon receive an outfit of blue uniforms.
Their distinctive color has been gray, but
the members of the corps show but little,
if any, objection to the change.
The order for the new uniforms has been
signed by the Governor. Col Obear whose
scheme it was to fit out the troops of the
state with them, is extreme y gratifed at
his success. Some months ago The Morn
ing News had an interview with him, in
which he outlined his plans and hopes bus
1t was thought improbable at the time that
he would be successful in his effo Is to
have the state supply all the soldiers with
uniforms.
Another idea that Col. Obear has pushed
jealousy and successfully is that of ar
mory rent for the troops ami pay for ar
norers. He has written that the Cover
nor viii sign an order for the payment of
this money to the companies within the
next few days. Every command win find
the funds of great assistance and the ex-
ira pay they will be enabled 10 give tn 7ir
armorers or quartermasters will result in
far more efficient service and better order
and arrangement of equipment in company
quarters.
