Speaker Cannon CritiCizes
Parker's Pension. Policy

Hastings, Neb., Sept 2e-Speaker
Joseph G. Cannon continued his tour of
Nebraska today. His principal speech
was made here this afternoon. Speaker
of Judge Parker's letter OF acceptance re-
iating to the presidents order providing
for a graduated pension scale.
Speaker Cannon reviewed the history
of the law under which the order was
made and the construction placed on it
by Presidents Cleveland and Mckinley.
and continued:
"Now. then. when that order of Roose-
veit's was issued the dickens was 10
pay, although along the same princiI -
and In the same manner as formerly is
sued by Cleveland and Mckinley. and
they have been raising a row about it
ever since. talking of executive usurpa-
ton. In Parkers first acceptance py
speech he complained of the expenditures
of the government under Republican
rule. and Roosevelt came back at him
and said: How are you going to cut
down these expenditures? Are you for
the repeal OF that executive order re-
,ating to the soldiers."
And Parker now comes back in his
letter OF acceptance. just issued. ana
says: But after 1 rescInd 1t I will use
my influence with congress to pass bill
giving an age service pension to the
soldier that performed service in the
Civil war;
I ask: What age. Parker? What age!
Will 1t be 70. 65 62 years. or what? In
definite yet still. and probably not sim
cere. but suppose you are elected presi-
dent, Mr.. Parker. and you use your in
fiuence. what will that bring in the mean
time? From $4,000 to $1,000 people will
have their pensions taken away. while
you promise TO use your influence to have
congress pass a service-pension law wie.i-
out stating the age you propose to rec
ognize.
Now. I ask you Mr.. Parker. II you
are elected president. who Will contror
the house or representatives? VIII not
two-thiros OF the Democrats OF that body
be made up OF members from the South
and are they LIBERAL people with pensions
for the union soldiers7'
Let us read chapter from the history
of pension legislation as 1t stands on the
statute books today There nave been
foureen bills passed from ime TO time
and these bills form the pension coce.
Who passed them? Democrats for tn.
bills. All: Democrats against the pils.
GAS: Republicans for the bills. LOGS: Re-
pubsicans against the bills. none. That's
how the record of the vote upon those
measures stand. Is there any hope
therefore for Mr. Parkers influence to
be effective? He is to take pensions
away from thousands of people and only
replace them by promise to use his IN
fiuence with a party in congress tina;
has notorious record against that very
thing. Let me ask you. have you ever
read Bunyan's Pilgrims Progressy
Great book. SPLENDID aiiegory There
was Christian and there was Fainthear.
and there was Truehart and there was
Mr.. Facing Both Ways. I say to you
that If Parker had lived then that
character in that book would not have
been Facing Both Ways. but 1t would
have been Parker.

KUROPA7K|N
Gen. Oyama With Four Ar.
mics Advancing Slowly
on Russian forces

ST. Petersburg, Sept. 26-The cause of
the extreme celebration in the Japanese
advance on Muacen was explained by a
dispatch from General Kuropatkin this
afternoon, which indicates that Field
Marshal Oyama has not yet concentrated
his forces. Fresh troops are constantly
arriving at Bensiaputze. while others
which recently reached Lao Yang are
marching up the Taitse river to Sianchan
These reinforcements, presumably. come
from Japan. AS soon as the Fourth
japanese army. at Sianchan. is sufficient
ly strong. 1t is now evident, the Japanese
intend to resort to their favorite flank
Ing tactics. move a formidable array
against Kuropatkin's left and compel the
evacuation Of Sintsintin. They evidently
are reconnoitering the ground over which
the Sianchan army will march up ana
cross the river.
Meanwhile General Kuroki Is trying to
seize and cross the Hun river far east Of
Mukden. Thence he will move down the
river and cooperate with the Fourth
army from Sianchan. while Oku and
Nodzu engage Kuropatkin's attention
south OF Mukden. The attacks on Da
Pass and Sanlungku on September 20
were the first symptoms of this vast
flanking movement.
Kuropatkin now reports that japanese
scouts have been encountered near the
Hun river, half way to Mukden, trying
to seize Kaoutou pass. ten miles north
east of Bentsiaputze. in order to clear
the way to Fushun. and that Oku's and
Nodzu's outposts have been engaged IN
heavy skirimishing with Cossacks near
Inpu. between B=ntsiaputze and the rail.
road.
st. Petersburg. Sept. 26-The naval or
gan. Kotlin. today publishes an article
predicting that Rear Admiral Wren wssl
attempt to break out of Port Arthur with
his ships and return to Europe. The pa
per duIIlltS that TIE tdsh VI cSCdpAh8 At~ns
Admiral Togo appears to be hopeless. II
one takes for comparison Admiral Ger
vera's attempt to get away from Santi-
ago. but adds that Wiren's men. unlike
the Spaniards. have plenty of experience.
The Russ and the Invalid. both refer
ring in a matter of fact tone to the i'm
perial rescript issued on Sunday. simply
say it was necessitated by the fact that
the Manchurian army has grown beyond
the size which even Napoleon found one
man could handle successfully.
The kuss adds the hope that General
Kuropatkin will be allowed to assume
supreme command and thus reap the
fruits Of ultimate victory. for which no
has so long carefully and self-sacrificing-
ly prepared.
