FORAKER SCORES PARKER.

BOSTON, Oct. 11.-United States
Senators Foraker of Ohio and Lodge Of
Massachusetts and Governor John L.
Bates spoke tonight at the dinner Of
the Republican Club of Massachusetts,
held in Symphony Hall.
Referring to the two Presidential
candidates, Senator Foraker said be-
fore the people made a man President
they wanted to know his views on pub
lie questions. He thought Judge Par
ker's declaration in regard to the gold
standard a great compliment to the
Republican party, but that in all other
respects he was in line with his own
party. In contrast, he said, President
Roosevelt had written and spoken upon
every public question IN which the peo-
pie have been interested since the land
lng of the Mayfiower.
Senator Foraker devoted much of
his speech to a discussion of the Phil
ippine question, claiming that the ac-
quisition of the islands was not a
transaction standing by itself, but that
it was part and parcel of the wise. pa
triotic American policy conceived and
entered upon by the administration Of
Mckinley and carried on by President
Roosevelt.
Senator Lodge discussed national is
sues and Governor Bates confined his
address to State issues.

dozen speeches, arranged the details
Of every meeting, introduced his corps
of campaigners to the audiences in all

ROOSeYGlt'S Mate Tells
Citizens Of Iowa
How to Vote.
Great Enthusiasm Dis
played All Along
His Route.

MARSHALLTOWN, Iowa, Oct. H.
Senator Fairbanks made here tonight
the last of series of ten speeches de-
livered since leaving Omaha early this
morning. The day was one Of the most
successful of the Western tour, both
in point of attendance and in point OF
interest. While there was no lack or
enthusiasm at any of the meetings,
Waterloo supplied the largest attend
ance and there also was the highest
pitch of enthusiasm attained. AT that
place the meeting was held in the
public park. The crowd was so eX-
tended that the Senator's voice could
not be heard on the outskirts and the
people so thronged the streets that 1t
was almost impossible for the auto
mobile in which he was seated to make
its way to the park.
At Iowa Falls Senator Fairbanks
dwelt upon the prosperity of the farn-
ers. He said:
An eminent Democratic authority some time
ago, in the hope of winning the support OF the
agricultural vote, asserted that the Repub-
lican party had done little for the farmers OF
the country He contrasted the expenditure OF
five six millions OF dollars for the support
of the Agricultural Department with eXpenol-
tUres for the support of other branches of the
Federal service His statement was not en-
tirely accurate. though he did not mean that it
should fall short of the absolute truth. The
Republican party has not only appropriated
over five millions for the support OF that de-
partment, at the head Of which is the great
Secretary of Agriculture, James Wilson OF
Iowa but it appropriated more than twenty
millions of dollars at the last session for the
support of the rural free delivery service
throughout the United States. That service is
one of the fruits OF Republican administration
More important than these are the benefits
coming to the farmers through the benehcent
operations of the policies of the Republican
party. The fact is that our farmers have been
benefited by the operation Of these policies
durinA the last seven and half years more
than they ever have been benefited in all fof
the history of the republic.
At Waterloo Senator Allison and for
mer Speaker Henderson occupied seats
on the platform while Senator Fair
banks spoke and both made speeches
there after the Vice Presidential can
didate took his departure. He was ac-
companied during the day by Governor
Cummins and other prominent Iowa
Republicans.

SPEAKS ON CHINESE EXCLUSION

Congressman E. ]. Livernash ad-
dressed several audiences on Sixth
street last night. He touched on va
rious subjects, but occupied the most
time in a discussion of the Chinese
exclusion question, regarding which
he said in part:
The Chinese exclusion question has not been
settled although many Americans believe IT
has been.
During the recent session Of Congress such
change was made in the existing law as TO
hold the exclusion statute unimpsired despite
the approaching termination of the Gresham
treaty. That is all that was done. That is
all that could be done, matters stood
The Gresham treaty expires because of the
action OF China in denouncing it, on the 7th
OF December. AS we have amended the
Platt exclusion act the expiration of the treaty
will not AFFECT that exclusion statute How
ever, any new treaty between the Tinited
States and China will affect that statute ana
just how IL will affect il will depend on the
precise letter of the treaty.
Whatever the future holds for us in the
matter of a treaty Californians should see 70
IL that no one is commissioned to speak for
State in either branch of Congress- who Is
not uneauivocally in favor of the rigid ex.
clusion of the classes of Chinese now nro.
hihited from entering our country

BY S. w. WALL.

of a return to the old system in any
part of the State, and L asked a great
many. On the western border, at
Fargo and Grand Forks, they simply
point across the river. At Grand
Forks and Fargo you find just as
pretty little cities as you want to see,
beautiful homes, neatly kept lawns
and gardens, clean streets, handsome
public buildings, an air of self-respect
and conscious pride. Just over the
little bridge that spans the Red River
at Grand Forks is East Grand Forks,
and from Fargo there is the town of
Moorhead. They are in the State of
Minnesota, and both of them are COM
posed chiefly of saloons. In the case
of MOOrhead there are a number of
saloons equiv ed with plate-glass
mirrors and electric lights to attract
and dazzle 1.-The best class of trade,
but there are saloons of every char
acter and in every part of the town.
Fargo and Moorhead made a fight
many years ago for supremacy, and
at the time of the prohibition agita-
ton it was prophesied that in case
of its success the center of popula-
tion as between the two towns would
cross the river into Minnesota. The
saloons did cross the river, and spent
large sums in their embellishments.
There were. as had been predicted
that there would be, a great many va
cant StOferOOmS in Fargo Wnere the
saloons had been. and rents came
down as a consequence. But there are
no vacant stores now in Fargo or
Grand Forks.
OBLIGING JAG WAGONS.
To be sure, the saloons get most of
their trade from the larger towns.
The streets of Fargo are patrolled day
and night by attractive conveyances
bearing the names in modest letters
of the well known places across the
river and any who wish to go to these
places have but to step in or hail the
driver TO be whirled over the bridge
without charge. The rigs are also on
call to convey the customers home,
drunk or sober. These rigs. which
are of many descriptions. are referred
to in local speech as jag wagons.
And to be sure it will be said that
so far as these towns on the States
margin are concerned the prohibition
law simply drew a definite line about
their tenderloin, which would be
good thing for any town. And of
course this is true, but exactly the
same sentiment is expressed in other
towns of the State with regard to the
prohibition law, that it would not be
exchanged for the old wide open con-
dition. Of course there is always the
reference to the blind pig" said to be
everywhere, and of course there is
something to it, but the pig is incon-
spicuous and it's effects not apparent.
If you wish to pursue this subject fur
ther, as the textbooks say, you are re-
spectfully referred. l have noted
what came under my eye.
