GOV. ODELL SPEAKS ON
LABOR AND CAPITAL
Says the Government Should Suppress
Violations of Law Of What
ever Shape.

NEW YORK, Oct. 15.-Gov. Odell
tonight opened the state Republican
campaign in Brooklyn by making
number Of speeches. In the early even
ing he attended dinner given in his
honor by the Union League Club Of
Brooklyn, at which Senator Depew
was one of the speakers. The gov
ernor was then driven to the Academy
of Music, where he opened the Hebrew
fair. After this Gov. Odell was taken
to the rooms Of the Brooklyn Young
Mems Republican club, and thence to
the Claremont Rink, where he made
the principal address of the night.
Among other things, he said
"The combinations of capital which
have marked the commercial progress
of our country have been accompanied
by combinations Of labor; SO long as
both pursue their business within the
limits of constitutional and statutory
law they are entitled to the protection
Of the state and the strong arm of the
government. Violations whether they
be through the artificial enhancement
Of prices; whether they be in the di-

and his operations were SO successful
that no linking was obtained by in
terested parties regarding the magni-
tude Of the deals nor the identity Of
the purchaser.
In many instances the st. Paul com-
pany has purchased the land outright,
while in others it has purchased the
mining rights, and it is understood that
within one year the company will be
mining every ton of coal used on the
entire system.
In this connection 1t was learned
today that the Rochelle & Southern
road, which was incorporated last week
at Springfield with a capital stock Of
100000, is a st. Paul concern organized
with view to connecting the lines Of
the st. Paul with the new coal land
purchase. The construction of this
road will extend from connection
with the st. Paul at Davis Junction,
in Ogle county to McNabb, sixty-fi
miles almost straight south in Putnam
county.
The coal problem is regarded as very
important by Western railroad men, as
is indicated by the recent purchase Of
ten thousand acres of Illinois coal land
by the Burlington for the benefit OF
that system. the Great Northern and
the Northern Pacific.

at Sacred Heart tonight was one Of
the most enthusiastic receptions ever
given state candidate in the conServ-
ative west end Of Renville county. The
town hall was crowded to the doors
a half hour before Mr.. Rosing was
introduced and standing room was at
premium long before the stage n1rty
arrived. The meeting, like that at Rem
vile, was markedly an assemblage Of
farmers and the reception they gave
the leader of Democracy augurs well
for big decline in the time-honored
Republican majorities.
Mr.. Rosing reached Sacred Heart at
$780, A special coach for his party
was sent to Renville, which included
an escort of twenty-five Democrats and
the Olivia Juvenile band. The parade
formed at the station and was dismiss
ed at the public square. 1t was so cold
that only a small crowd was expected,
but when the local leaders in charge
of the meeting arrived at the hall they
found it more than half filed with
farmers from over a wide area, some Of
them driving fifteen miles to hear the
arguments advanced by the Democrat
ic standard bearer and hisN remedies
for the evils Of the government per-
petrated by the present administration.
E. L. Winje, Sacred Heart candidate
for the state senate, presided, and the
platform party included ]. M. Freeman,
candidate for county attorney; w. E.
Webster, for clerk of courts; D. J.
Dacy, for judge of probate; H. A. But
Ter and Albert Bratsch, for representa-
tives; w. B. Braundt, for sheriff; G. F.
Neitzel, for register of deeds, and M.
E. Sheiran, for county commissioner.
One of Rosing's Best.
Mr.. Rosing's speech was one of the
best he has made in his campaign. He
was at his best and was confronted by
an audience not only interested, but
enthusiastic. He pointed out how the
great political parties have changed
their policies, and called his audience
to scan the policies through which the
Republican party has deserted It's
original ground and fastened the Re-
publicans of the West to the tail of an
Eastern kite built on tariff protected
ribs. He Insisted that the proposed
commission for the adjustment of the
tariff evils is impracticable and would
only result in involving the country

From 1000 to 10000 are now at

the fear Of death or bodily harm to

This afternoon he followed his wife
into the furniture store of Frank Nc

and tearing out one jaw. Stricken then
turned the revolver on himself and
ended his own life.

instantly, as was the murderer himself.
McCallister is in q critical condition,
but hopes are entertained for his re-
covery. The whole affair occurred be-
