GREAT DEMOCRATIC GATHERING AT
 THE HOME OF THOMAS 4. HENDRICKS

great men of the past think about them before this late day?"
 Following is MT. Tomlinson's speech in part:
 ''rhe United States, from the very begin ming of its history has been governed by one or the other of two great political par ties, under different names, representing distinct and opposite conceptions of gov ernment; one holding to the doctrine that the few should rule the many the other that the many should rule themselves.
 "The Democratic idea triumphed in the beginning of the present century when Jefferson was elected President of the United States In fact, the nineteenth cen- tury has been noted in history all the world over for the rise and reign of the masses, as the sixteenth was for the reformation, the seventeenth for the rise of liberty, and the eighteenth for the downfall of feudal- ism.
 shall the morning of the new century be ushered in with the rise and rule of the classes? Shall the tide sweep backward, the pendulum swing the other way? Shall our Republic stand, or go the way of all the other republics of history? That is the great question in this campaign. All the other questions presented by the platforms of the opposing parties are naturally and necessarily allied to this one question.
 The Republicans and the Trusts
 That trusts and combinations of the powerful few should grow up and flourish under the rule of Republicans is but the natural outcome of the doctrines of gov ernment In which they believe and which they practice. Holding to the theory that the few should govern, the powerful few must necessarily stand together against the many Such Is the undoubted state of things in this country today under the Mckinley administration.
 But the Republican party on this ques- ton, as on the other questions, I shall show while it may have the courage of its convictions, certainly has not the can- dor of it's convictions. In its platform it condemns, while many of its prominent leaders openly defend, trusts, and it's na- tional chairman says there are no such things as trusts.
 Tt has been well said, if the trusts are good, why condemn them, if they are bad, why defend them? And it might be fur ther added that, if there are no such things as trusts, why do the Republicans defend and attack trusts in the same cam paign?
 The Republican Platform
 'The Republican platform contains mild pledge against trusts, but what con fidence have you in the pledge? Haven't the Republicans had possession of the gov ernment, have not they had an opportunity to enforce existing laws and enact new laws against trusts? If they did not act when they had the power, what assurance have you that they would act if they were again entrusted with power?
 'It Is true that, during the closing days of Congress, they pretended like they want ed to do something, but even their own newspapers all over the country aayed they for their transparent insincerity and pointed out that their action was nothing but a fraud.

She|byViNe Storm Center of the
 Indiana Campaign ADDRESS BY ]. W. TOMuNSON The Biggest Meeting of the Hoosier State-Able Arguments in the
 Interest of Col. w. J.
 Byan's Election.

Shelbyville, Ind, October 6-(Special.)- Shelbyville, the home of Thomas A. Hen- dricks and the storm-center of politics in Indiana, turned out on Thursday the big gest Democratic meeting of the campaign. The speakers of the evening were Hon. John w Tomlinson of Alabama and Nicholas N Bell of Missouri who, on their arrival at 7:30 from Indianapolis, were met at the train by 1 committee of citizens and band and escorted to the courthouse square. On the speakers stand, which was decorated with the Stars and Stripes, were many prominent Democrats. while an audience of a thousand gave the visitors a cordial re- ception.
 MT. Tomlinson was the first speaker. After thanking the chairman for the kind introduction and the audience for the cor dial reception, he said 1t was a very great pleasure to not only visit the State, but the town which was the home of Thomas A. Hendricks. He paid tribute to the great men of Indiana, and put the Re- pubicans present in a good humor by re- ferring In most complimentary terms to that Republican of the old school, who revered the constitution, ex-President liar rison," whom he said the south felt most kindly towards for his appointment or a Southerner and Democrat, Howell B. Jackson, on the United States Supreme Court bench. His reply to Senator Bever- idge, who had undertaken to reply to Bryan was unanswerable. He related how the venerable Senator from Alabama made the Senate and the nation laugh at the "young orator." and 'the audience laughed and applauded when he told the story of how the young people thought they were smarter than the old folks The young fellow said "Why, I know more at 20 than my father did at 40." Your father" replied an old man, must have been a natural born fool" If Beveridge is right and these new policies are essential to the nations welfare and greatness, why" ex- claimed the speaker, did not some of the

THE LARGE TANKS SAY
An AII-Day Fire Which Requlf
Hard Work to Subdue. .--Loss
Estimated at $4,000.

PORTLAND, Jan. 2S.-The
one-story brick warehouse Of the
Standard Oil Company, located
on East Water street, was totally
destroyed by fire this afternoon,
entailing a loss estimated at $780,
600. The fire started in the
basement, under the storeroom,
where a large amount Of oil in
cases was kept. The entire fire
department Of the city was called
out, and their efforts were directed
toward saving the oil tanks where
100000 gallons of oil was
stored. Every few minutes a
case of oil would explode and
sheets Of flame leaped hundreds
of feet into the air. For a time
a high wind prevailed, which
spread theburning oil over several
acres and it was with great diff
Guilty that the firemen saved the
other warehouses in the vicinity.
The fire burned fiercely all day
and it was late tonightsbefOre the
lake of oil had burned out. Sew
eraf engines will be kept throw
ing water on the ruins all night
to prevent the fire from spread
ing. Had the flames reached the
huge tanks of oil on the premises
the loss would have been much
heavier.
There was no insurance on any
of the property.

General Boilers great turning

still. His carefully-worded mes
sages TO the war Office telling this,
after a silence Of two days, reads
much like an apology and an ex-
planation.
General Warren still holds the
ridges but the enemy's positions
are higher. British artillery is
playing on the Boer positions and
the Beers are replying. The
British infantry is separated by
only 400 yards from the enc

slopes across the bare and open
space would expose the British to
a fatal rifle fire.

disclosed his purpose to assault
Spionkop heights during the
night This appears to be q key |
to the Boer defenses. If he takes
il and thus commands the ada |
cent country, an important and
possibly, decisive step, will have
been accomplished.
II seems that General Buffers
dispatch reached the war Office
rather early in the night and that
it was decided not to give out the
till morning But at 2
a. m. copies were sent to the news
papers,
The Post and Standard touch
lightly upon the unpleasant fea-
lures of the dispatch and take
hope from the projected night
attack. But, all in all, the dis
patch looks like preparation for
worse news.
Apparently, Lord Roberts has
nothing whatever to do with Bull
ler's operations, Butler communi-
eating with the war office direct.
The fact that the judgment of
Lord Roberts has not been sought
does not add to public confidence.
Special dispatches photographed
from Ladysmith Monday say the
garrison has ceased to speculate
the precise date of its
probable deliverance.

The fundamental principle thus es-
taolished is that if the legislature
either before or after the happening
Of a vacancy has had an opportunity
to nil it, then there is no power in the

is fatal to the claims Of Mr.. Quay.
NO Ganger or evil has resulted to the
government from the enforcement of
this principle.
We therefore submit that the SEN
ate for it sown honor and dignity
should stand by Its previous solemn

minority says thai the failure Of the

asked:
