JUDGE PARkER's POLITICAL
MANAGER CALLS THE REPUR.
LIcANs HUMBUGs.
ATTACK ON ROOSEVELT
In Address at Rroome County Fair He
Passes Quickly Over Tariff and
Money Questions and Devotes His
Time to Charges Against President.

Blnghampton, N. Y, Aug. 31.-Form.
er Senator David B. Hill was the guest
of honor today at the Broome county
fair which is being held at Whitney
Point. He delivered the address of the
day, plunging at the outset into the
political issues.
Reason for Silence.
Hill briefly discussed the tariff and
said the democratic platform was ST.
lent upon the money question because
that question was deemed settled. The
almost unanimous approval by the con
vention of Judge Parkers telegram, he
said, operated virtually as an amend
ment to the platform and the new plat.
form necessarily superseded all previ
GUS national platforms.
Calls Republicans Humbuqs.
"The present campaign on the part
of the republicans" he declared, sis
one of humbug and false pretenses, pc
culiarly Rooseveltish in all its essen.
tial characteristics"
Accused the President.
Hill charged that whenever the
President desired to impress upon the
country the greatness or goodness of
his deeds he employed certain maga.
zine writer's to exploit them instead of
communicating to the public directly
through messages or addresses.
The Postal Frauds.
He cited the magazine article by Will
liam Allen White on the subject, "How
| Roosevelt Uncovered the Posta'
Frauds" claiming it was an effort tc
convince the people that the President
is not responsible for the frauds of his
administration and declared if the ar
ticle was not dictated at the White
House 1t was at least inspired there
He declared it would fail of it's purpose
however because it is not true.
Hill took up the Philippine question
contending that the Filipinos. when il
safely can be done, should be given
independence.
White Denies Statement.
Kansas City, Mo-, Aug. 31.-Willian
Allen White, referring to the state
ment in Hills speech of today said

National Officials Of Butchere' Union
Says Supply of Meat viii Be Cut

Edict in Chicago.

The order from President Don.
nelly today, calling out the union
butchers in all the packing houses
in the country, will have little or
no effect upon the Morrell plant in
this city. An official of the COM
pany stated this afternoon that the
firm has been given no notice to
the effect that such an order has
been received in the city. Whether
the members of the local union
have received the order cannot be
learned as it was impossible for a
reporter to see any of them who
could speak with authority today.
The local butchers union Is a
small one, and it is stated that it's
influence at the Morrell plant Is
only minor. 1t is very unlikely
that the new order will affect the
Ottumwa concern to any notice
able extent.
