The speaking last evening at the court
house was grand success in every par
ticular. In the absence of Mr.. Sweet,
who failed to arrive by reason of being
uuavoidably detained at his mine, and
the absence of Mr.. A. A. Crane, candidate
for lieutenant governor, whose business
prevented his attendance, the evening
was given up to Hon. J. M. Shoup, who
spoke for one and one-half hours.
The speaker was introduced by l. N.
Smith, chairman Of the county central
committee, in short but appropriate ad-
dress, and Immediately launched into the
discussion Of the issues of the campaign.
Mr.. Shoup was enthusiastically ap-
plauded and made many telling points.
On expansion, he reviewed the history
of the country from the first settlement
to the present, showing that the policy of
our country has universally been for the
acquisition of territory, and that after
each acquisition 1t was necessary to sup
press an insurrection such as we now face
in the Philippines. He stated that this
was done by Washington in suppressing
Little Turtle and his marauding bands
and by the different presidents at each
crisis. The purchase known as the Lou
isiana Purchase was followed by inter
mittent warfare from its consummation
until the battle of the Little Big Horn
extending over period of nearly OF
about three quarters Of century: that
the purchase of Florida was followed by
the Seminole war, and showed conclu
sively that the resulting rebellion was
incident to each step of progress. His
treatment of this subject was masterful
logical and convincing.
On prosperity, he referred to the con
ditions which confronted the country
four years ago, the numerous calamitou.
prophecies of Mr.. Bryan and the exp'o
sion of all Bryan's theories by the course
of conservative republicanism. He
touched upon the failure of the democ
racy to fix our northern boundary at 81
deg. 40 min. and their failure to eight
as was their battle cry in the campaign
of the '4os, and attributed the loss of thu
rich Saskatchewan and Aleutian coun
tries to their broken pledges, as well al
the loss of the now rich gold fields o
British Columbia.

WASHINGTON, Sept. I9.-The general
impression here is that the German note
of yesterday demanding punishment of
the Chinese responsible for outrsges upon
foreigners as condition 70 peace nego-
iations has brought the Chinese trouble
to an acute crisis as far as the United
States government is concerned. This
conclusion is based upon the belief that
the Chinese government cannot accept
the German proposition so that it is now
for the United States government either
to withdraw their forces from China inn
mediately or join Germany, England
and the other allied forces in prolonged
war with China.
Now the belief is growing that if our
government is forced to speedy decision
as to the German proposition it may re.
sort to direct negotiations with the Chi
nese government, and may withdraw
from China, giving notice to the allied
powers of the arrangement.

He discussed at length the double deal
ing of Mr.. Bryan in first procuring the
ratification of the treaty closing the war
with Spain, and second in attacking the
present administration for the perform
ance of the obligations growing out Of
that treaty.
Numerous brilliant descriptive phrases
were jndiciously scattered throughout
his remarks, and his tribute to the Presi-
dent was characteristic Of Mr.. Mckinley
and his consistent course throughout life
since the time when mere boy he en-
tered the Union army to fight the battles
of the republic, until today he stands the
recognized peer of earth's rulers.
The speech in all was we'll rendered
and we'll received, and made lasting
impression.

 Great preparations are being made thus early in the season for the grand floral fete, which Is to occur in the ear ly part of September. It is said that efforts will be made to outstrip the one of last season, which was one of the most unique and gorgeous ever held in Saratoga. It will last two or three days, and tend to make many visitors stay over who would otherwise terml- nate their vacation the last of August. The National Universalists' annual convention is in session and is being held in Convention hall on Broadway. Among the New Haven people who re- gently arrived here are Judge l.. M. Hubbard wife and two sons. They are highly enjoying themselves at Tenn pie Grove. D. $. Gamble is on deck at the American-Adelphi Hotel. Attorney Harrison Wagner and wife are at the Grand Union for August. MT. and Mrs. James English are being nicely cared for in their cottage at the United States Hotel. Mrs. English Is quite regular attendant at the select hops given every Wednesday in the ball. room of the United States Hotel Mr. English thinks of the two evils, he had a little rather attend the famous races and witness the noted horses do the running matches. Almost every after noon they join the long procession or fine rigs which are driven down Union avenue to Saratoga Lake and other points of interest.
 Quite number of New Haven people are expected to arrive here during Au- gust. It seems to be Connecticuts month to visit Saratoga.
 Drs. Robert Ives and Winchell are here usually during August. Hundreds bring their bicycles with them and are to be seen spinning along the fine roads in various directions every day. Carriage riding is another favorite pastime with many. A nice rig can be hired by the hour or day at a very moderate price. One of the favorite drives is to Woodlawn Park which contains many miles of good roads and is fully as beautiful this season as ever. Whoever enjoys the romance of real country scenery and loves to inhale is invigorating air can have it by driving a short ways out of the center of Sar- atoga In various directions. There are no more enjoyable drives anywhere in this broad universe than encircle Sara toga Springs in almost any direction.
