 Rt the Drawing Card.

Akron, O., Sept. 27.-The Republican State campaign was opened in this city | today. An industrial parade of a large number of neatly uniformed marching clubs was one of the features of the af- | ternoon's program The parade covered about mile and half of march and went to Grace Park. where 10000 persons had assembled to listen to the speeches. The first speaker of the day was Sec retary of War Root. He was greeted with tremendous applause. He said:
 ''The question which the people of Ohio are about to consider is as to whether you shall elect House of Representa- lives which shall continue to support and carry forward the policy of the Republi- l can party or whether you shall elect House of Representatives which, by a hostile majority shall put an end to the expectation of these policies and to all further progress. A peculiar condition of government arises from the fact that the Republican party has been, for a num- Der of years, carrying into execution a | new policy.
 Liberty to Foreign Lands. We have been trying to work out an answer to the question whether the American Republic is able to maintain | not only liberty and justice within our own borders, but also to carry the torch
 of liberty abroad to carry the principles | of liberty and justice and further the
 freedom among peoples of the earth who | dwell in other lands and know not lib- | erty and law.
 "In the solution of that question, the 1 government of the United States under
 the control of the Republican party has | been engaged for the past four years
 and the question that faces you in this
 campaign is whether that duty has been
 so well or so ill performed that you shall
 withdraw or continue your confidence in
 the Republican administration. The l question has a deep significance for the people of Ohio, for the policy which we
 have been endeavoring to execute in 1 administration and Congress was the
 policy of the lamented William McKIn- ! ley"
 Secretary Root continued his reference | to the dead President by saving that it
 was the great hope of his life that the | policies which he had inaugurated should
 be carried to a successful close He also | quoted the statement of President Roose- welt that he would continue unbroken the policy of Mckinley. The continua- tion of McKinley's policy Secretary Root | said, would be more enduring tribute i to his memory than wreaths and flowers laid upon his tomb.
 The War With Spain.
 Referring to the war with Spain. Sec retary Root said that 1t brought up new difficulties, war that the United States was i'll prepared to enter upon. Within a few weeks, he said the power of Spain | has been broken and the last holding of
 
 | been surrendered to the power of the United States
 The expense incurred in this work was mentioned the total abolition of war taxes and the reduction of the war debt was shown. The administration of civil government in Cuba and the Philippines was mentioned by the speaker and in concluding his address he said:
 You are asked to show by your votes your confidence in the party and in the work of Mckinley and his successor; you are asked to put in power in the House of Representatives the party which is opposed to the party that has attempted to villify and defeat the administration which has been accomplishing all these things" At the conclusion of Secretary Roots speech, Senator Foraker was lntroouceu He received an oYaton.
 The last speaker of the day was Sena- tor Hanna. When he arose the cheering 1 and applause was deafening. Senator Hanna said:
 Senator Hanna Speaks. "A year ago 1t was my privilege to at tend the opening of the Republican cam paign and after looking over the situa- ton I came to the, conclusion that should give you piece of advice. Let well enough alone. That was the whole n campaign. Today l say Stand pat You are not on the defensive in Ohio or any where else in the United States or in the Philippines. All of the success of the administration in continuing the policy of Mckinley and Roosevelt depends on keeping in power a Republican majority in Congress.
 "If you would paralyze the onward and upward march of progress in this coun- try, give the democrats majority In Congress- whence all legislation pertain ing to the great economic principles must emanate. Take away the power from that body today to continue Re- publican principles and you begin the work of harm by creating within our people the suspicion of doubt as to the future Capital will begin to hesitate and the wheels of commerce will slow down for there is nothing so timid as capital
 "The Republican party has no apologies | to make. It stands upon the platform that was made on its birthday and which I believe will remain for all time. Think | of these principles in connection with the principles of the national admins | tratOn today.
 q want to say a word for Cuba You all know that almost the last words President Mckinley spoke on earth was | that famous speech at Buffalo. The principle that he hoped for-reciprocity-
 was no hasty thought: it has come to him
 after years of experience and devotion to that great economic question: the tariff He had seen the bloom ana the those who had earned it.
 Tariff Good Enough.
