COCHRAN ANSWERS
MAN WHO INTERRUPTS
Tells Why He Supported Mckinley in
1896 and Not Thereafter

CHICAGO, Oct. 20.-Congressman
Bourke Cochran addressed an immense
audience in the Auditorium tonight under
the auspices of the Young Mems Demo-
cratic Club of Cook County Mr.. Cochran
+ confined his address to discussion of
the tariff question as applied to industrial
conditions. He was frequently met with
Interruptions from the audience, all of
which he answered with readiness and
good nature. While Mr.. Cochran was
denouncing the protective tariff policy of
the Republican party as inevitably tending
to a rise in the price of commodities and
a fall in wages, man in one of the gall
leries shouted: Didn't you support Nc
KinIey?" Mr.. Cochran said:
at supported Mckinley in 1896 because
on another public question he took such
position that it was necessary for me
to support him in spite of his views on
the tariff But after that contest was de-
cided, Mr.. Mckinley and his associates
sought to betray the gold standard. by
sending commission to Europe to estab-
lish bimetallism because they thought
there was as much profit in treason as
there was in loyalty"
Tremendous applause followed Mr..

COMMIT TTEE is BROKE
Republican County Candidates
Desert the "kids"

Practically all of the Republican
county candidates have deserted the
kid aggregation campaign commit
tee. and are using the old-time ward
politicians in an effort to secure votes.
The kid committee has turned down
the old timers, and they in turn have
secured the favor Of the candidates
and the. committee finds itself without
funds or prospects of securing financial
aid.
Among those who have been refused
q lookin as to the management of the
campaign are George Gerlach, of the
Eighth ward; F. B. Doran, of the Sixth
ward; Charles Waliblom, Of the, First
ward; Capt. Berger, of the Second
ward, and many others. In refusing to
recognize the regular campaign COM
mittee and putting such men in charge
of their ward campaign work, the can
didates have caused an uproar, and
there are loud threats of revenge to be
heard about the executive committee
rooms in the Windsor hotel.
Unless the candidates pay their as
sessments in the near future the COM
mittee will be bankrupt. 1t would be
impossible to pay the outstanding bills
with the amount now in the treasury,
and the efforts to bulldoze the candi-
dates into sending in a check have
proved unavailing up to this time. nj.
w. Fitzgerald, E. G. Krahmer, p. O..
Justus and other Of the candidates
have been brought in and warned that
they are expected to make their con-
tributions, and have in turn stated that
they are spending their money in the
wards.
Being minus a well-fl1ed treasury
over which they can fight the members
of the "lxid aggregation" spend their
time in discussing the interesting ques-
ton as to what persons will be enti-
tied to the credit if some of the candi-
dates of the party should be elected.

SINISTER INFLUENCE
OUT FOR COUNTY OFFICE
Opposition to p. J. Metzdorf Is the Man
Behind Jesse Foot

The feature Of the campaign that is
attracting most attention locally is the
fight that is being waged between
County Treasurer P. J. Metzdorf and
the hackers of Jesse Foot, the Repub-
lican nominee for the same office. Mr..
Metzdorf is backed by practically the
entire business community, his admin
istration is officially indorsed by a
politically antagonistic examining of
fee, and his popularity has been fairly
attested in two elections. He is maxi
ing a campaign on his record, and
/ there is no doubt of his election if the
better influences in the community are
effective at the polls.
The campaign of the opposition to
Mr.. Metzdorf-for nobody believes that
Mr.. Foot is all of the opposition-is
peculiar. Mr. Foot admits himself that
he is backed for the Office by an out
slider who is not a politician. He has
had no experience whatever in a finan-
cial capacity, being salesman and con-
fidential man in retail jewelry and
brokerage concern on Seventh street
In the primary election he was backed
cordially by elements that knew no
party. He is a young man with a good
manner, but he does not come Into the
campaign himself. He is never re-
ferred to as figuring in the race be-
cause of the prominence he himself
has given his backer and financier.
There has been no question made or
the integrity of Mr.. Foot, but a great
many people are looking askance at the
proposition of turning over the county
treasurers Office to the same elements
that formerly controlled it-represent-
ed in a different Northumberland un-
doing the work that Mr.. Metzdorf has
been doing for four years.
Mr.. Foot claims very considerable
vote in the Fourth ward, including all
of the Eagles. This latter claim is in
dignantly repudiated by many members
of the order themselves Mr.. Metzdorf
is making straight campaign among
the substantial voters, and unless the
influences that stand behind Mr.. Foot
are made to disappear, he will be badly
beaten.
"There is no doubt Of the result"
said Mr.. Metzdorf, but I don't like to
be fighting f1gurehead while his back
ers are so busy"

DRAW CROWDS IN
A POURING RAIN
Johnson and Winston Over.
taxed, VIII Hereafter Adhere
toT Their Schedule

John A. johnson, and F. 6. Winston
spent part of yesterday in Minneap-
oils, leaving later in the day for Long
Prairie3 where they addressed another
large audience last night
Both Democratic. candidates showed
/ the eseffect of.the hardest speaking CAM
|spaign ever put upon Democratic can
didates for state eoffice in Minnesota,
and the Democratic state central COM
mittee has decided that in future they
will be allowed to speak only at points
included in their regular schedule.
Both speakers have spoken as many
as ten times in single day during the
past week, coupled with team trips
through the mud and rain. On top of
the demands that have been made upon
them for morning, MONDAY, afternoon
and evening speeches, they have ad-
dressed little gatherings of enthusiasts
at railroad stations during the stops
made by their trains, and have at
tended several banquets rendered them
by citizens following evening addresses.
Chairman r. A. Day met Mr.. john
son and Mr.. Winston during their stay
at Minneapolis, and the result of the
conference was decision by the state
committeemen that the speakers in the
future would conform to their regular
daily schedule and nothing more. At
least twenty applications for the can
didates for governor. and lieutenant
governor are on file at the Democratic
state headquarters that cannot possi-
bly, be filed and the candidates will
stick to their itinerary.
Big Crowd in Pouring Rain
Reports from the Litchf1eld meeting
Thursday night are to the effect that
it was one OF the very best meetings
yet addressed by the Democratic can
didates. In a pouring rain, a great
audience gathered at the opera house
and under the inspiration of the en-
thusiastic assemblage Mr.. Johnson
made what is said by those who have
followed him over the state to be the
best speech he has yet delivered. 1t
was hot off the reel and he talked
straight from the shoulder.
Mr. Winston continues to create an
excellent impression, and his talks Of
fifteen to twenty minutes at each stop,
while not pretending to oratorical
heights. are plain, outspoken express
sions of opinion from successful and
honorable business man.
The general circulation of Congress-
man Lind's Indictment of his Repub-
lican opponent has started a great tide
in the direction of Mr.. Winston. which,
coupled with his personal attractions.
it is believed, will elect him by several
thousand votes. They will speak at
Brainerd tonight, and at Little Falls
Saturday night.
johnson Is Confident
Interviewed at Minneapolis yester-
day, Mr.. Johnson said to newspaper
representatives:
I really think the people of the state
have made up their minds what they are
going to do, and that no amount Of
talking ON either side is going to change
them much don't want to be too op-
timistic, but I do think things are in my
favor. Everywhere 1 go 1 receive most
hearty welcomes. Prominent Republicans
and leading business men in most OF
the towns l have visited have voluntarily
come to me and promised their support,

SAYS FIRST WARD is
CERTAIN FOR JOHNSON
J. A. jackson Says Anti Dunn senti-.
ment Is Strong

'T want to see John A. johnson elect
ed governor Of Minnesota" said J. A
Jackson, former Republican member
Of the legislature, "and believe that
a great majority of the men who voted
for the Collins delegates in the pri-
maries feel the same way.
johnson will make a fine showing
in the First ward, 1 am sure, and there
is every Indication thats such will be
the case throughout the county. The
anti-Dunn sentiment is growing and
will doubtless increase from this time
until election. The Johnson Repub-
licans in the First ward believe that
they will win the ward by from 900 to
500 votes, and this estimate is based on
a careful canvass.

when they reached the place the last
one had sunk.
The beach is good for bathing, but
after certain place is reached it
grows deeper rapidly. One of the
girls, it is thought, stepped into
hole and the others, attempting to
rescue her, were drawn to their
death.

usual lull in business that is normal
to this season of the year, though
some industries report demand FOR
their products that outstrips the prep
aration that had been made to accom-
modate it. The crop situation aud the
political outlook seem to have cheered
commercial communities very much

great deal of loss to growers and rail
roads, subsided quickly anG probably
left much smaller percentage of dam
age behind than has been claimed.
