GOOD WORD FOR HANNA.
He Receives More Unjust Abuse Than
Anyone. Says Il Cleveland Nan.

Kansas City, Sept. S.-"Probably
no man in the United States receives
more unjust abuse than Mark a. Han
ma, said NJ. G. Carrel of Cleveland
O., Senator Hanna's home. Matthew
Smith and Merrick T.. Johnson, other
business men of the same city, agreed
with Mr.. Carrel. They were all at the
Midland hotel on their return from
Joplin, where each has mining invest
ments.
"Alr. Hanna, continued Mr.. Carrel,
lis one of the most respected of Cleve-
lands citizens. In private life he is
atfable and genial; in business he is
thoroughly straightforward and fair.
1t is only through politics that he has
enemies. Mr.. Hanna is the employer
OF thousands of men. His treatment
of his men is so just and fair that /
never heard of his employees striking.
He has men in the iron business. i'm
the ship building industry and ON mi,
street car liues. He is president and
practicallythe owner of the Li'tleCou-
soiidated company of Cleveland. There
is one other system i'm the city. 1t is
called the Big Consolidated ON Ibis
system there was recently a serious
strike. but there was no strike ON
Mark Hanua's lihcs. His men were
contented. The senator is simply

was good title when he sue nitted (
to the Senate of the United States for
It's ratification. The Senate believed.
1t was a good title when they gave it'
their constitutional assent. and the
Congress seems not to have doubted
It's completeness when they appropri-
ated $50, 600 provided by the treaty.
II any who favored its ratification be-
lieved it gave us bad title. they we're
not sincere. our title is practically
identical with that underwhich wehold
our territory acquired since the Begin
ming OF the government, and under
which we have exercised full sovereign
ty and established government for the
inhabitants.
1t is worthy Of notesthat no one out
side of the United States disputes the
mllness and integrity of the cession.
What, then. is the real issue on this
subject? Whether it is paramount to
any other or not, it is whether we
shall be responsible for the govern
ment of the Philippines with the SOW
ereignty and authority which enables
us to guide them to regulated liberty,
law, safety and progress, or whether
we shall be responsible for the forci-
BILE and arbitrary government of
without sovereignty and
authority on our part and with only
the embarrassment of a protectorate
which draws us into their troubles
without the power of preventing them.
There were those who two years ago
were rushing us on to war with Spain
whoareunwilling nowto accept its clear
as there are those among
us who advocated thei ratification of
the treaty Of peace. but now protest
against its obligations. Nations
which 90 to war must be prepared to
accept its resultant obligations. and
when they make treaties must keep
hem.

DISLIKE OLD SOLDIERS.
Breidenthal and Other Leaders Shun
Reunions Persistently

Topeka, Sept. COT course, ]
know that a Populist is an inferna
idiot to even think of attending a
soldiers reunion" This is one of
the sentences in John Breidenthal's
letter to w. d. Vincent, fusion nomi-
nee for congress in the Fifth district.
That Breidenthal believes it is borne
out in degree by the fact that he has
not attended a single soldiers reunion
this year. He fights shy of them. He
was billed to speak at one at Ran
dolph, Kansas, few days ago, but
failed to show up. His absence
caused much comment in that section.
Breidenthal is not the only fusionist
who feels that way about the old
soldiers. Nearly all of the fusion
leaders entertain the same opinion.
One of the exceptions is Ed Ridgley,
chairman of the Pop State committee.
He is an eX-soldier.
Judge Jackson. fusion nominee for
congress In the Third district, refused
to address the old soldiers at Baxter
Springs. He said that his kind of
talk would not suit them. The
damned old soldiers would not listen
to me-" is his language used in ex-
planning why he would not speak as
billed.
\ big rally is in progress at Logan,
Kansas, this week 1t had been ar
ranged to have both sides politically
represented. John Atwood and David
Overmyer were billed as the Demo-
cratic orators. Neither one showed
up. Atwood claimed his throat was
sore. Overmyer's excuse was that ne
had written the Fort Scott Democratic
state platform which contained an
anti-railroad pass plank: that he
could not afford to pay his fare and.
therefore, he could not attend. The
real reason they did not come is that
Atwood and Overmyer hold the same
views that Breidenthal does in regard
to the old veterans and did not care
to address them.
The remarks of Bredenthal con-
corning the old soldiers. together with |
the actions of himself and other fusion
spellbinder, in refusing to address
soldier reunions, have caused much |
comment in political circles. Kansas
is soldier state. She sent more men |
to the civil war and also to the Span
ish-American war, in proportion to
population. than any other state in
the Union. And these veterans are
likely TO argue that if a Populjst
would be ian Internal idiot" TO at
tend a soldiers reunion, then an old
soldiers would be an Internal idiot to
support Populist this year,

SILVER IMMEDIATE ISSUE
And the Chance Of its Tri-
umph the Greatest Danger
Confronting us-The Buga-
boo Of Imperialism Most
Etfect1ally Disposed

Washington, Sept. 10.-President
Mckinley's letter of acceptance was
given out today. 1t occupies about
ten newspaper columns, and is regard
ed as a very strong presentation of
the Republican side of politica issues.
The following are among the most
pointed paragraphs:
In the first battle that of 1896, the
friends of the gold standard and of
sound currency were triumphant and
the county is enjoying the fruits of
that victory. our antagonists, how
ever are not satisfied They compel
us to a second battle upon the same
lines on which the first was fought
and won.
While regretting the reopening of
this question, which cannot but dis
turb the present satisfactory financial
condition of the government and visit
uncertainty upon our great business
we accept the issue and
again invite the sound money forces
to join in winning anotherand we hope
a permanent triumph for an honest fl
nancial system which will continue
inviolable to the public faith"
The Chicago platform Of 1896 is re-
affirmed in its entirety. Nothing has
been omitted or recalled, so that all
the perils then threatened are pre-
scented anew with the added force of
deliberate realirmation.
Four years ago the people refused
to place the seal of their approval up
on these dangerous and revolutionary
policies, and this year they will no,
fail to record again their earnest dis
sent.

LABOR AND WAGES.
"The best service which Gamble rem
dered to labor is to afford it an OPP
portunity for steady and remunerative
employment, and give it every encour-
agement for advancement.
The policy that subserves this end
is the true American policy. The past
three years have been more satisfac-
tory to Observation-Disclosures than
many preceding years. Any change
of the present industrial or financial
policy Of the government would be
disastrous to their highest interests.
With prosperity at home and an in
creasing foreign market for American
products, employment should continue
to wait upon labor and with the pres
