Senator Hanna's Tour.

Madison, S. D., oct. lS--The first stop
made by Senator Hannu's train today
was at Flandreau, where big audience
had gathered, the crowd. including one
hundred and nifty boys and girls from
the government Indian Industrial school
located 40 Flandreau, and several for
mer members of Chief Little Crows
Sioux band, who are now land holders
IN this section. Despite extreme hoarse-
ness, Senator Hanna made rather eX-
tended address, taking up the question
Of imperialism more fully than he has
yet discussed II, and arguing that the
whole issue was simply an effort Of Mr.
Bryan and other Democratic leaders to
make political capital out Of the war
with Spain, the full credit for the sue
cessful conclusion Of which. Senator

ference on political and economic ques-
tons must be expected. But four years
