the open air at Willard Market. where
he was greeted by 10000 people.
He spoke on the prosperous condition
of the country, the issues of the Demo-

nothing and coming union of capital
and labor as the great factors in the
advancement of the country. He de-

and single tax platform in Ohio. In

ONLY RALLY AT CINCINNATI.
Cincinnati, Oct 23.-The first and only
rally that the Republicans viii have in
this county this year was addressed last
night by Senators Beveridge, Foraker
and Hanna, in Music hall, which was
crowded.
Senator Hanna received a rousing
ovation as he appeared. He devoted his
address mostly to state affairs and es-
pecially to his neighbOr, Tom Johnson.
He referred to the speeches of Foraker
and Beveridge about the Democratic
party not having a leader or an issue,
but he said they had heavy liabilities
and a receiver in Ohio-Torn johnson.
Senator Hanna was both sarcastic and
witty in his reference to Johnson. He
said Johns0n's plank on equal taxation
meant for the other fellow to pay the
taxes, and his home rule plank meant
that he was it. He said the only issue
of the Democrats in Ohio this year was
Tom johnson with all his sophistrles,
and the issues of the Republicans were
their record of forty years and the sup
port of President Roosevelt in carrying
out the principles and policies of Nc
kinley He made a special appeal for
the election of congressman so that
President Roosevelt could continue the
development OF the present prosperity
and perpetuate the principles Of his
predecessor. He did not believe that
the business men would take their OBJ
Ject lesson from the hippodrome OF
Johnson's circus tent He quoted from
the opening speech of Johnson at Lo-
rain. in which the latter said Senators
Foraker and Hanna ought to be in the
penitentiary. and caused much laughter
by describing where Johnson would be
after the November election.
The senator said he had no doubt
whatever as to the result of the COMING
election in Ohio, but that 10 normal
Republican ma jOrity would be enough
There must be such an Overwhelming
Republican victory he said, as to make
5he result decisive in putting an end tC
establish confidence He said il it coulf
be possible for 50 per cent of the Demo-
cratic vote in Ohio to be poIled for the
ticket and platform of Tom johnson
II would be the greatest calamity thai
ever came to Ohio, and that it woulf
shake the confidence Of the entire conn.
try. ''--
He denounced Johnson as the most IN
mitisated demagogue and hypocrfte in III
United States. He said that when John
son ran for mayor of Cleveland he tol,
the people he was "a hundred thousan,
dollar man and they would set him fo
$4,000, and that he has since proved to h
the most expensive man ever on the pa-
rolls of Cleveland.
Senator Hanna then discussed nationa
issues at some length. and in referrinl
to the success of President Roosevelt an,
President Mitchell in closing the strike
advocated a partnership III the futur
between capital and labor, a partnershi,
of equal rights and fair treatment. H
said the conditions now were in favor q
organized labor being fully recognized b
capital. and he wanted organized labo
Americanized. He referred to the dir
ferent clements in organized labor an
hoped that capital in the future wo1I
go more than half way. This he consid
cred the greatest development of thetvven
tieth century. He insisted that the recon
ciliation should be developed into a fu
partnership and treated as such bv hot
employees and employers so that the on
would be as free to go to the office as tn
other to go to the shop.
Senator Hanna closed by saying tha
prosperity is the normal condition of n
country and that following after sue
vagaries and sophistries as those of John
son was the only thing that could brin
about changes to interrupt the prosperit
of the country.
