on reaching the prison. 10 anticipation
OF the arrival OF the murderer at Auo-
urn from Buffalo, q crowd numbering
nearly 1900 people, surrounded the
prison lest night. At the time Of the
prisoners arrival, however, shortly az.
ter 3 o'clock this morning only about

trembling the wretch was taken from

ties. Twenty policemen attempted to
keep back the crowd which surged
about the assassin clsmoring for

and unmatched Shamrock III. in the
light wind 10 the first race, yesterday.

to finish 10 the allotted time-6ve hours
and a half-snd the race was declared
oil when the American yacht was
seven miles from the finish line and
three'quarters Of mile ahead OF the
EoRllsh boat. 10 the % miles covered

The Columbia crossed the lne first,

FRIDAY EVENING, SEPT. 27, 1901

From ALL sections Of the State come
reports OF the dissatisfaction at the &C.
ton, or rather non action OF the state
Constitutional Convention. That body
has been In session for over three
months aud a-half and now reports
come from Richmond that the members
are considering the matter OF hoding
hall, as it is certain that the Legislature
will meet sud require its hall IN the
capitol before the convention is through
with it's work. So far the convention has
done little else than talk; but few i'm
portant matters have been h1aiIy
acted upon and at present it is difficult
to tell when the framing of the new
constitution will be finished. Inc
brains of the State are undoubtedly
we'll represented 10 the convention, but
there appears to be too many self inter-
ests involved, too much log rolling; too
much jockeying, and too much dema-
goQy; while there are many yet who
want to make speeches ito set them
selves right before their constituents"
TIE action Of the convention is certainly
doing the democratic party In the State
no good, aud the republicans are max
ing capital OF every misstep their oppo-
nents make. As before suggested 10
the Gazette, the members should make
the interests Of TIE State. not ono sec
ton of it, or their own, their guiding
star; work together to this end; CON-
plete their work as soon as possible and
adjourn. The convention seemed to
get down to work yesterday and it is
hoped that it will now continue In well
doing.

Mr.. w. J. BRYAN 10 this weeks Com
moner has 40 editorial 10 defence OF
free speech. He says anarchism is
product of foreign countries where
there is no freedom Of speech and repu-
dates the idea that limitation upon
the use Of the tongue and press is
cure for anarchy. He says: ut is
time for liberty-loving citizens to pro-
test against the attempt to suppress free
speech. The warfare must be against
anarchy, not against freedom Of speech.
Free speech and free press are essen
tial to free government" Mr. Bryan
further declares that the death of Presi.
dent Mckinley cannot be traced to any
thing said or written agaiDt him. Many
will differ with him on this issue as free
dom ofspeech has degenersted into sedi-
ton and a good reason for controvertiDg
his standpoint is the history of the past
three weeks, the central figure IN which
is q shiitless character, just past the
threshold of manhood who unhesi-
tatiDgly says he was actuated to MUIR
der the President by the writings and
utteranoes of a rsbid female anarchist.
There can be no more effectual move
meut against anarchists than muzzling
them. So long as such individuals are
allowed to go from city to city venti-
lating themselves against the govern
ment. advocating murder and war on
capital there will be trouble. Their
talk is reasonable, they refuse to work
and some even to wash themselves, and
the authorities where they roost should
enforce the vsgrsnt laws.

CZOLGOSZ.

Czolgosz, the doomed assassin of
President Mckinley, was taken from
Buffalo to Auburn States prison last
night to await death by electrocution
during the week commencing Monday,
October %.
Before sentence was passed upon him
yesterday the assassin eviuced desire
to speak, but be could not get his voice
above q whisper, and bis words were
repeated to the court by his counsel.
"There was no one else but me,n the
prisoner said in whisper. mo one
else told me 10 do IL and no one paid
me to do 1t. l was not told anything
about the crime, and l never thought
anything about that until couple OF
days before / committed the crime"
Czolgosz to x freely while the
journey from Buffalo was being made.
He said he wanted the public to under
stand that he was sorry for his crime.
He ssid he bad been excited by auer-
chistic ideas but there was no con.
spirscy TO kill the President. II had
no personal grievance against the
President" said the assassin. "My
trial hss been much fairer than l ex-
pected."
